INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

Terms not defined in this Introductory Statement shall have the meanings specified in Article 1 hereof.

Reference is made to that certain 5-year mortgage loan (the “Whole Loan”), evidenced by four promissory notes (the “Notes”).

The Whole Loan was originated by GS Commercial Real Estate LP (the “Originator”), pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of January 29, 2016 (the “Loan Agreement”), by and among the Originator and 52 Delaware limited liability companies (the “Loan Borrowers”). As of the Cut-off Date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan was $480,000,000.

The Whole Loan consists of (a) a portion that has an unpaid principal balance as of the Cut-off Date of $349,750,000, and is evidenced by Promissory Note A-1 ((as the same may hereafter be amended, restated, replaced, extended, renewed, supplemented, consolidated, severed, split or otherwise modified, “Note A-1” and Promissory Note B (as the same may hereafter be amended, restated, replaced, extended, renewed, supplemented, consolidated, severed, split or otherwise modified “Note B”, and together with Note A-1, the “Trust Notes”), and (b) a portion (that has an unpaid principal balance as of the Cut-off Date of $130,250,000, (the “Companion Loan”) and is evidenced by Promissory Notes A-2 and A-3 (as the same may hereafter be amended, restated, replaced, extended, renewed, supplemented, consolidated, severed, split or otherwise modified, the “Companion Loan Notes” and together with Note A-1, the “A Notes”). Note A-1, Note B and the Companion Loan Notes are collectively referred to herein as the “Notes” and, each, as a “Note”.

As of the Closing Date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Note A-1 and Note B are in the aggregate $349,750,000 (the “Trust Loan”). On or prior to the Closing Date, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Mortgage Company (“GSMC” or the “Loan Seller”) acquired the Loan from the Originator. GSMC sold the Loan to the Depositor pursuant to a Mortgage Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Loan Seller and the Depositor (the “Loan Purchase Agreement”).

As of the Closing Date, Promissory Notes A-2 and A-3 were held by GS Commercial Real Estate LP. The relative rights of the respective lenders in respect of the Whole Loan are set forth in a co-lender agreement dated as of March 18, 2016 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Co-Lender Agreement”), between the holders of the Notes related to the Trust Loan and the holders of the Companion Loan Notes. From and after the Closing Date, the entire Whole Loan is to be serviced and administered in accordance with this Agreement.

As provided for herein, the Certificate Administrator shall elect or shall cause elections to be made to treat designated portions of the Trust Fund for federal income tax purposes as two separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC” and, each, a “REMIC”). Each Class of Regular Certificates will represent a single Class of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, as further described herein. Each Class of Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests will represent a single class of “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC as further described herein. The Class R Certificates will evidence the sole Class of “residual interests” in each of the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions under federal income tax law.

In exchange for the Trust Loan and the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests, the Trust will issue to the Depositor the Class A, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F and Class R Certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), which Certificates in the aggregate will evidence the entire ownership interest in the Trust. The Trust Fund consists principally of the Trust Loan, the Loan Documents (exclusive of the rights of the Companion Loan Holders thereunder) and all payments under, and proceeds of, the Trust Loan following the Cut-off Date.

The Depositor intends to sell the Certificates to the Initial Purchaser in an offering exempt from the registration requirements of the federal securities laws.

-55-

distributions on the Certificates, include accrued and unpaid interest on the Trust Loan that has not been advanced by the Servicer as a result of Appraisal Reductions Amounts with respect to the Trust Loan or such Note, as applicable (“Appraisal Reduced Interest”).

The Depositor and the Trustee also intend and agree that, in such event, (i) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, (ii) the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee (in such capacity) a first priority security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the assets constituting the Trust Fund, including the Trust Loan subject hereto from time to time, all amounts received on or with respect to the Trust Loan after the Closing Date, all amounts held from time to time in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, and, if established, the Foreclosed Property Account, and all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest under the Loan Purchase Agreement, (iii) the possession by the Custodian or its agent of the Notes with respect to the Trust Loan subject hereto from time to time and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by a purchaser or person designated by such secured party for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law, and (iv) notifications to, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, Persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, securities intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.

(a) By its execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it of the Trust Loan in good faith without notice of adverse claims and the Certificate Administrator declares that, in its capacity as custodian (the “Custodian”), it holds and will hold or will cause to be held such documents as are delivered to it constituting the Mortgage File (to the extent the documents constituting the Mortgage File are actually delivered to it) in trust, upon the conditions herein set forth, for the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders.

The Custodian shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review, or examine any such documents, instruments or certificates to independently determine that they are valid, genuine,

-60-

enforceable, legally sufficient, duly authorized, or appropriate for the represented purpose, whether the text of any assignment or endorsement is in proper or recordable form (except to determine if the endorsement conforms to the requirements of Section 2.1(b)), whether any document has been recorded in accordance with the requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, to independently determine that any document has actually been filed or recorded in the appropriate office, that any document is other than what it purports to be on its face, or whether the title insurance policies relate to the Properties.

(c) Upon the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall (i) deliver to the Depositor, the Trustee, the Loan Seller, the Loan Borrowers, the Servicer and the Special Servicer a final exception report as to any remaining documents that are not in the Mortgage File and (ii) request that the Loan Seller cause such document deficiency to be cured.

The Special Servicer shall determine if any such Defect or Breach materially and adversely affects the value of the Trust Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders therein or causes the Trust Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats a defective obligation as a qualified mortgage, or any substantially similar successor provision) (any such Defect or Breach, a “Material Document Defect” and a “Material Breach,” respectively). If such Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Document Defect or Material Breach, then the Special Servicer shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Loan Seller, the other parties hereto and subject to Section 10.17, to the Rating Agencies. If such determination is that the Defect or the Breach is a Material Document Defect or a Material Breach, the Special Servicer shall (A) request that the Loan Seller (i) repurchase the Trust Loan (or the allocable portion of the Loan with respect to a Property that was the subject of such Material Breach or Material Document Defect equal to its Allocated Loan Amount for such Property) at an amount equal to the Repurchase Price, (ii) promptly cure such Material Document Defect or Material Breach, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Purchase Agreement or (iii) indemnify the Trust for the losses directly related to such Material Breach or Material Defect, subject to receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such action and (B) give prompt written notice thereof to the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event); provided that with respect to any Material Breach or Material Document Defect that would cause the Trust Loan not to be a

-67-

“qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the Loan Seller will be required to cure such Material Document Defect or Material Breach or to repurchase the Trust Loan at the Repurchase Price within ninety (90) days of the date of discovery of such Material Document Defect or Material Breach. If a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator or a Servicing Officer of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, has actual knowledge that the Loan Seller has defaulted on its obligation to repurchase the Trust Loan under the Loan Purchase Agreement, such entity shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Certificateholders of such default. The Special Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the Loan Seller under Section 8 of the Loan Purchase Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, shall be carried out in such form, to such extent and at such time as if it were, in its individual capacity, the owner of the Trust Loan. The Special Servicer shall be reimbursed for the reasonable costs of such enforcement (it being understood that a Liquidation Fee shall be payable to the Special Servicer as and only to the extent provided herein): first, from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the Loan Seller; second, out of the Repurchase Price, to the extent that such expenses are a specific component thereof; and third, if at the conclusion of such enforcement action it is determined that the amounts described in clauses first and second are insufficient, then pursuant to clause (xi) of Section 3.4(c) out of collections on the Trust Loan on deposit in the Collection Account.

If the Special Servicer or the Depositor receives a Repurchase Communication of a withdrawal of a Repurchase Request of which notice has been previously received or given and which withdrawal is by the Person making such Repurchase Request (a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal”), such party shall give written notice of such Repurchase Request Withdrawal to the Loan Seller, the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the other parties hereto and, subject to Section 10.17 of this Agreement, each of the Rating Agencies (to the extent notice has not previously been delivered to such Persons pursuant to this sentence).

Each notice of a Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal required to be given by a party pursuant to this Section 2.8(a) (each, a “15Ga-1 Notice”) shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after receipt of a Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or receipt of a Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request Withdrawal, and shall include (i) the identity of the portion of the Trust Loan, (ii) the date such Repurchase Request was received or the date such Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, as applicable, (iii) if known, the basis for the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) and (iv) in the case of 15Ga-1 Notices provided by the Special Servicer, a statement as to whether the Special Servicer currently plans to pursue such Repurchase Request.

In the event that the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Servicer receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal, such party shall promptly forward such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal to the Special Servicer and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative, and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a “Repurchase Request” or a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal” under Section 2.8(a) of the Trust and Servicing Agreement relating to the GS Mortgage Securities

The Loan Purchase Agreement will provide that (i) any 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.8(a) is so provided only to assist the Loan Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.8(a) by a 15Ga-1 Notice Provider in a 15Ga-1 Notice shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right that such 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to the Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a 15Ga-1 Notice.

(b) Upon receipt by the Servicer from the Loan Seller of the Repurchase Price for the Trust Loan, the Servicer, shall deposit such amount in the Collection Account, and the Certificate Administrator shall, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the receipt by the Servicer of the Repurchase Price and the deposit of the Repurchase Price into the Collection Account pursuant to this Section 2.8(b), (i) release or cause to be released to the designee of the Loan Seller the Repurchase Mortgage File and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty (except that the Trust Loan is owned by the Trust and is being sold free and clear of liens and encumbrances), as shall be prepared by such designee to vest in such designee the Trust Loan released pursuant hereto and the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have no further responsibility with regard such Repurchase Mortgage File and (ii) release or cause to be released to the Loan Seller any escrow payments and reserve funds held by the Trustee, or on the Trustee’s behalf, in respect of the Trust Loan.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defect (except for a Defect with respect to the document described in clause (i) of Section 2.1(b) and the documents described in clauses (ii)(B), (C) and (H) of Section 2.1(b)) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which a Defect exists is required in connection with (A) an imminent enforcement of the Loan Lender’s rights or remedies under the Trust Loan; (B) defending any claim asserted by any Loan Borrower or third party with respect to the Trust Loan; (C) establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Trust Loan; or (D) any immediate significant servicing obligations, including without limitation, making a claim under a title policy. The Trust’s sole remedy against the Loan Seller in connection with a Material Document Defect shall be to enforce the repurchase claim in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Purchase Agreement.

The Servicer (other than during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event) and the Special Servicer (during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event), each as an independent contractor, shall service and administer the Whole Loan and administer Foreclosed Properties solely on behalf of the Trust Fund, in the best interest of, and for the benefit of, the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and Companion Loan Holders constituted one lender (taking into account that Note B is junior to the A Notes) (as determined by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in the exercise of its good faith and reasonable judgment), in accordance with applicable law (including the REMIC Provisions), the terms of this Agreement, the Co-Lender Agreement and the Loan Documents and, to the extent consistent with the foregoing, the following standards: (i) the higher of (a) the same manner in which and with the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with which the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, services and administers similar loans and administers foreclosed properties for other third-party

-70-

portfolios, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders in servicing their own loans and administering their own foreclosed properties, or (b) with the care, skill, prudence and diligence the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, uses for loans which it owns or for foreclosed properties it owns and administers; (ii) with a view to the timely collection of (a) all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Whole Loan or, with respect to the Special Servicer, if the Whole Loan comes into and continues in default and if no satisfactory arrangements can be made for the collection of the delinquent payments, the maximization of the recovery on the Whole Loan to the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender) (taking into account that Note B is junior to the A Notes) on a net present value basis and (b) the Loan Borrower Reimbursable Trust Fund Expenses and other amounts due under the Whole Loan and (iii) without regard to:

(A) any relationship that the Servicer or the Special Servicer or any affiliate thereof may have with the Loan Borrowers, the Loan Seller, the Depositor, any Companion Loan Holders or any of their respective affiliates;

(B) the ownership of any Certificate (or Companion Loan) or any interest in any Companion Loan or any mezzanine loan related to the Trust Loan by the Servicer or Special Servicer or by any affiliate of the Servicer or the Special Servicer;

(D) the right of the Servicer or the Special Servicer or any affiliate thereof to receive reimbursement of costs, compensation or other fees (other than Advances), or the sufficiency of any compensation payable to it under this Agreement or with respect to any particular transaction; or

(E) the ownership, servicing or management for others of any other loans or property by the Servicer or the Special Servicer.

Subject to the above-described servicing standards (hereinafter referred to as “Accepted Servicing Practices”) and the terms of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and of the Loan Documents, the Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through one or more sub-servicers as provided in Section 3.2, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. The Servicer and the Special Servicer shall service and administer the Trust Loan and the Companion Loan in accordance with applicable state and federal law. At the written request of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, accompanied by the form of power of attorney or other documents being requested, the Trustee shall furnish to the Servicer or the Special Servicer any powers of attorney (substantially in the form of Exhibit N hereto) and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable such Servicer or the Special Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and the Trustee shall not be held responsible (and shall be indemnified by the Servicer or the Special Servicer) for any negligence or misuse by the Servicer or the Special Servicer in its uses of any

-71-

such powers of attorney or other document. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not without the Trustee’s prior written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the representative capacity of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or (ii) take any action with the intent to, and which actually does cause, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any state.

The liability of each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, for actions and omissions in its capacity as Servicer and the Special Servicer, respectively, hereunder is limited as provided herein (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 6.3). Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Servicer or the Special Servicer of the collectibility of the Trust Loan and the Companion Loans.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association acting in any particular capacity hereunder will not be deemed to be imputed with knowledge of (a) Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, acting in a capacity that is unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (b) Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, acting in any other capacity hereunder, except, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), where some or all of the obligations performed in such capacities are performed by one or more employees within the same group or division of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, or where the groups or divisions responsible for performing the obligations in such capacities have one or more of the same Responsible Officers; provided, however, the knowledge of employees performing special servicing functions shall not be imputed to employees performing master servicing functions, and the knowledge of employees performing master servicing functions shall not be imputed to employees performing special servicing functions.

Section 3.2. Sub-Servicing Agreements. (a) The Special Servicer shall not engage any sub-servicer or enter into any sub-servicing agreement. The Servicer, at its own expense without a right of reimbursement under this Agreement or otherwise, may enter into sub-servicing agreements with sub-servicers for the servicing and administration of the Trust Loan and the Companion Loans, provided that (i) any such sub-servicing agreement shall be upon such terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with this Agreement and as the Servicer and the sub-servicer have agreed, and (ii) no sub-servicer retained by the Servicer shall grant any modification, waiver, or amendment to the Loan Documents without the approval of the Servicer. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken, and limitations on actions permitted to be taken, by the Servicer in servicing the Whole Loan include actions taken or to be taken by a sub-servicer on behalf of the Servicer. Each sub-servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business and licensed in the applicable state(s), if, and to the extent, required by applicable law to enable the sub-servicer to perform its obligations under the applicable sub-servicing agreement, and (ii) qualified to perform its obligations under the applicable sub-servicing agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received any amount when the sub-servicer receives such amount, irrespective of whether such amount is remitted to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, any Cash Management Account, any Reserve Account or the Distribution Account, and actions taken by the sub-servicer shall be deemed to be actions of the Servicer. The Servicer shall notify the Certificate

-72-

Administrator, the Trustee, the Loan Borrowers and the Depositor in writing promptly upon the appointment of any sub-servicer and promptly furnish the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, upon its request, with a copy of the sub-servicing agreement. No sub-servicer shall be permitted to enter into any sub-servicing agreement with other sub-servicers without the prior written consent of the Servicer.

(b) Notwithstanding any sub-servicing agreement, the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Trust Loan and the Companion Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1 without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such sub-servicing agreement, or by virtue of indemnification from a sub-servicer, and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Whole Loan.

(c) Any sub-servicing agreement entered into by the Servicer shall provide that it may be assumed or terminated by (i) the Trustee if the Trustee has assumed the duties of the Servicer or if the Servicer is otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) a successor Servicer if such successor Servicer has assumed the duties of the Servicer, without cost or obligation to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the successor Servicer, the Trust or the Trust Fund.

(d) Any sub-servicing agreement, and any other transactions or services relating to the Whole Loan involving a sub-servicer, shall be deemed to be between the Servicer and such sub-servicer alone, and the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Trust and the Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the sub-servicer, and no provision herein shall be construed so as to require the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Depositor to indemnify any such sub-servicer. The Servicer is permitted, at its own expense, or to the extent that a particular expense is provided herein to be an Advance or an expense of the Trust, at the expense of the Trust, to utilize other agents or attorneys typically used by servicers of mortgage loans underlying commercial mortgage backed securities in performing its obligations under this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein, each of the initial Servicer and the initial Special Servicer may delegate certain of its duties and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. Such delegation shall not be considered a sub-servicing agreement hereunder, and the requirements and obligations set forth herein applicable to sub-servicing agreements, sub-servicers or Servicing Function Participants shall not be applicable to such arrangement. Notwithstanding any such delegation, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall remain obligated and liable for the performance of their respective obligations and duties under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if each alone were servicing and administering the Whole Loan as required hereby.

(f) The parties hereto acknowledge that the Whole Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the Co-Lender Agreement and recognize the respective rights and obligations of the Trust, as holder of the Trust Loan, and of the Companion Loan Holders under the Co-Lender Agreement, including: (i) with respect to the allocation of collections on or in

-73-

respect of the Whole Loan, and the making of remittances, to the Trust, as holder of the Trust Loan, and to the Companion Loan Holders; (ii) with respect to the allocation of expenses and losses relating to the Whole Loan to the Trust, as holder of the Trust Loan, and to the Companion Loan Holders and (iii) to the extent provided for under the Co-Lender Agreement, the consultation rights of the Companion Loan Holders. With respect to the Whole Loan, the Servicer (if the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer (if the Whole Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan or a Property has been converted to an Foreclosed Property) shall prepare and provide to each Companion Loan Holder all notices, reports, statements and communications to be delivered by the holder of the Trust Loan under the Co-Lender Agreement, and shall perform all duties and obligations to be performed by a servicer and perform all servicing related duties and obligations to be performed by the holder of the Trust Loan pursuant to the Co-Lender Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Co-Lender Agreement, the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement shall control with respect to the Whole Loan.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at no time shall the Servicer or the Trustee be required to make any advance of delinquent scheduled monthly payments of principal or interest with respect to any Companion Loan.

(h) To the extent required under the Loan Documents or the Co-Lender Agreement, the Servicer shall, on behalf of the Loan Lender, maintain a note register for the Whole Loan in accordance with the Loan Documents or the Co-Lender Agreement. The Loan Seller is the initial and sole holder of the Companion Loans as of the Closing Date, and notices regarding such ownership shall be addressed to the Loan Seller at the address set forth in Section 10.4.

Section 3.3. Cash Management Account. A Lockbox Account and a Cash Management Account have been or shall be established pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Cash Management and Control Agreement and the Lockbox Account Agreement. The Servicer shall exercise and enforce the rights of the Trust Fund with respect to the Cash Management Account and the Lockbox Account under the Loan Agreement, the Cash Management and Control Agreement and the Lockbox Account Agreement in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the other terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 3.4. Collection Account.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Remittance Date, in no event will the Servicer be permitted to make a withdrawal pursuant to clauses (ii), (iii)(b), (iv), (ix) or (xi) to the extent that, as a result of such withdrawal, the amount on deposit in the Collection Account after giving effect to the withdrawal would be less than the amount of the Required Advance Amount; provided that the foregoing withdrawal limitations shall not apply (and accrued amounts previously eligible for withdrawal pursuant to clauses (ii), (iii)(b), (iv), (ix) or (xi) but which remain unpaid due to the operation of this paragraph may then be withdrawn and paid) upon (1) the final liquidation of the Trust Loan or all Properties, (2) the final payment of the Trust Loan and release of the Mortgages or (3) the determination that any Advance that would increase the currently unreimbursed Advances in the aggregate would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Servicer shall advance, to the extent it determines that such amounts are recoverable, all amounts owed to itself (other than Servicing Fees), CREFC^®, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and Trustee pursuant to such clauses (ii), (iii)(b), (iv) (to the extent reimbursements of such amounts are owed to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator), (ix) or (xi) (other than unreimbursed Property Protection Advances and Monthly Payment Advances made by the Servicer, which shall continue to remain outstanding) (such advances, “Administrative Advances”). All Administrative Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.23. Notwithstanding any provision herein, the Servicer shall not be obligated to make any Administrative Advance that it determines, together with interest thereon, will constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance if made.

The Servicer shall pay to the Certificate Administrator (on behalf of itself and the Trustee) and advance or pay to the Special Servicer, if applicable, from the Collection Account as provided above amounts permitted to be paid to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, as applicable, therefrom, promptly upon receipt of certificates of a Servicing Officer of the Special Servicer and a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, as applicable, describing the item and amount to which the Special Servicer and the Trustee, respectively, are entitled; provided, however, the Servicer shall pay the Certificate Administrator Fee to the Certificate Administrator without requiring the delivery of such certificate. The Servicer may rely conclusively on any such certificate, shall have no duty to recalculate the amounts stated therein and shall have no liability if the amount paid in reliance thereon is an amount to which the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, is not entitled.

(d) The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain in the name of the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, a segregated non-interest bearing reserve account (which may be a subaccount of the Distribution Account) (the “Interest Reserve Account”). The Interest Reserve Account must be an Eligible Account or a subaccount of an Eligible Account. Funds on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account shall be uninvested. On each Distribution Date occurring in any February and on any Distribution Date occurring in any January that occurs in a year that is not a leap year (unless, in either case, such Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall deposit into the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to one day’s net interest collected on the principal balance of each Note related to the Trust Loan as of the Loan Payment Date occurring in the calendar month preceding the calendar month in which such Distribution Date occurs at the applicable Net Trust Loan Rate (net of the Servicing Fee, the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee and the Certificate Administrator Fee

-78-

payable therefrom and exclusive of Default Interest) to the extent a full Monthly Payment or Monthly Payment Advance is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive January and February, “Withheld Amounts”). On each Remittance Date occurring in March (or February, if the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to the Withheld Amounts from the preceding January and February, if any, and transfer such amounts into the Distribution Account.

Section 3.5. Distribution Account. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain on behalf of the Trustee and for the benefit of the Certificateholders a segregated non-interest bearing trust account (the “Distribution Account”), which shall be deemed to include the Lower-Tier Distribution Account and the Upper-Tier Distribution Account, which shall be subaccounts of the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, as holder of the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests. The Distribution Account must be an Eligible Account. On each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall transfer from the Collection Account to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Distribution Account all Available Funds remaining on deposit therein, after giving effect to the withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.4(c). The Certificate Administrator shall credit the funds remitted by the Servicer from the Collection Account to the Distribution Account. Amounts held in the Distribution Account shall be uninvested.

The Certificate Administrator shall make withdrawals from the Distribution Account to make distributions to the Holders of the Certificates pursuant to Section 4.1.

(b) The Certificate Administrator shall make or be deemed to have made withdrawals from the Lower-Tier Distribution Account in the following order of priority and only for the following purposes:

(i) to make deposits of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount pursuant to Section 4.1(b) and Section 4.3(b) into the Upper-Tier Distribution Account and to make distributions to the Holder of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LT-R Interest) pursuant to Section 4.1(b);

(ii) to withdraw amounts deposited into the Lower-Tier Distribution Account in error and pay such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto; and

(iii) to clear and terminate the Lower-Tier Distribution Account pursuant to Section 10.1.

(c) The Certificate Administrator shall make withdrawals from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account in the following order of priority and only for the following purposes:

(i) to withdraw amounts deposited in error and to withdraw amounts due to it under Section 3.4(c), to the extent such amounts were not withdrawn and paid to it by the Servicer under Section 3.4(c);

-79-

(ii) to make distributions to Holders of the Regular Certificates and the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class UT-R Interest) on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 9.1 as applicable; and

(d) to clear and terminate the Upper-Tier Distribution Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.

Section 3.6. Foreclosed Property Account. The Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more deposit accounts (the “Foreclosed Property Account”) in the name of either (a) “Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Special Servicer on behalf of Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders of GS Mortgage Securities Corporation Trust 2016-RENT, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2016-RENT” related to any Foreclosed Property, if any, held in the name of the Special Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders or (b) in the name of the limited liability company formed under Section 3.14. The Foreclosed Property Account must be an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall deposit into the Foreclosed Property Account within two Business Days of receipt all funds collected and received in connection with the operation or ownership of such Foreclosed Property. On or before the last day of each Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall withdraw the funds in the Foreclosed Property Account, net of certain expenses and/or reserves, and deposit them into the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.4(a). The Special Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator in writing of the location and account number of the Foreclosed Property Account and shall notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator in writing prior to any subsequent change thereof.

Section 3.7. Appraisal Reductions. (a) Promptly upon the occurrence of an Appraisal Reduction Event, the Special Servicer shall notify the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee (and so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative) (i) of the occurrence of an Appraisal Reduction Event, (ii) (A) order and (B) use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to obtain independent appraisals of the Properties (unless appraisals of the Properties were performed within nine (9) months prior to the Appraisal Reduction Event and the Special Servicer is not aware of any material change in the market or condition or value of the Properties since the date of such Appraisal (in which case, such appraisal shall be used by the Special Servicer)) and (iii) determine (no later than the first Distribution Date on or following the receipt of such appraisal or determination to use an existing appraisal) (so long as such appraisal was received at least three (3) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date (in which case it shall determine no later than the second Distribution Date following the receipt of such appraisal)) on the basis of the applicable appraisal, and receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Servicer in the Servicer’s possession necessary to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount (which information shall be delivered within two (2) Business Days after receipt of any such request) whether there exists any Appraisal Reduction Amount and, if so, give reasonably prompt notice thereof to the Servicer, the Trustee, the Companion Loan Holders (or, in the case of a Companion Loan that is part of an Other Securitization Trust, the master servicer, special servicer and trustee with respect to such Other Securitization Trust) and the Certificate Administrator. The cost of obtaining such appraisal shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance or an Administrative Advance unless it would constitute a Nonrecoverable

-80-

Advance and in such case, as an expense of the Trust. Updates of appraisals shall be obtained by the Special Servicer and paid for by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance (or paid for by the Trust if the Servicer determines that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance) every nine (9) months for so long as an Appraisal Reduction Event exists, and the Appraisal Reduction Amount shall be adjusted accordingly, and, if required in accordance with any such adjustment, each Class of Certificates that has been notionally reduced as a result of Appraisal Reduction Amounts shall have its related Certificate Balance notionally restored (or reduced if applicable) to the extent required by such adjustment of the Appraisal Reduction Amount, and there shall be a redetermination of whether a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event is then in effect. Any such appraisal obtained shall be delivered by the Special Servicer to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, the Servicer and, so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative, in electronic format (which format is reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator), and the Certificate Administrator shall make such appraisal available to Privileged Persons pursuant to Section 8.14(b).

The Holders of Certificates representing the majority of the Certificate Balance of any Class of Certificates that is or would be determined to no longer be the Controlling Class (such Class, an “Appraised Out Class”) as a result of an allocation of an Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of such Class shall have the right to challenge the Special Servicer’s Appraisal Reduction Amount determination and, at their sole expense, obtain a second Appraisal of any Property an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”). The Requesting Holders shall cause the Appraisal to be prepared on an “as is” basis by an Appraiser in accordance with MAI standards, and the Appraisal shall be reasonably acceptable to the Special Servicer in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Requesting Holders shall provide the Special Servicer with notice of their intent to challenge the Special Servicer’s Appraisal Reduction Amount determination within 10 days of the Requesting Holders’ receipt of written notice of the determination of such Appraisal Reduction Amount.

An Appraised Out Class shall be entitled to continue to exercise the rights of the Controlling Class until 10 days following its receipt of written notice of the Appraisal Reduction Amount, unless the Requesting Holders provide written notice of their intent to challenge such Appraisal Reduction Amount to the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator within such 10 day period pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph. If the Requesting Holders provide such notice, then the Appraised Out Class shall be entitled to continue to exercise the rights of the Controlling Class until the earliest of (i) 120 days following the related Appraisal Reduction Event, unless the Requesting Holders provide the second appraisal within such 120 day period, (ii) the determination by the Special Servicer (described below) that a recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount is not warranted or that such recalculation does not result in the Appraised Out Class remaining the Controlling Class and (iii) the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event. After the Appraised Out Class is no longer entitled to exercise the rights of the Controlling Class, the rights of the Controlling Class shall be exercised by the Class of Control Eligible Certificates immediately senior to such Appraised Out Class, if any, unless a recalculation results in the reinstatement of the Appraised Out Class as the Controlling Class.

-81-

In addition to the foregoing, the Holders of Certificates representing the majority of the Certificate Balance of any Appraised Out Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order an additional Appraisal of any Property if an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and if an event has occurred at or with regard to the related Property or Properties that would have a material effect on its Appraised Value, and the Special Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that such Appraisal is delivered within 30 days from receipt of such Holders’ written request and shall ensure that such Appraisal is prepared on an “as is” basis by an Appraiser in accordance with MAI standards; provided that the Special Servicer shall not be required to obtain such Appraisal if the Special Servicer determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices that no events at or with regard to the related Property or Properties have occurred that would have a material effect on such Appraised Value of the related Property or Properties.

Upon receipt of an Appraisal provided by, or requested by, Holders of an Appraised Out Class pursuant to this Section and any other information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Servicer reasonably required to calculate or recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount, the Special Servicer shall determine, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, whether, based on its assessment of such additional Appraisal, any recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount is warranted and, if so warranted, shall recalculate such Appraisal Reduction Amount based upon such additional Appraisal. If required by any such recalculation, the Appraised Out Class shall be reinstated as the Controlling Class. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver notice to the Certificate Administrator of any such determination and recalculation, and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

Appraisals that are permitted to be presented by, or obtained by the Special Servicer at the request of, Holders of an Appraised Out Class shall be in addition to any Appraisals that the Special Servicer may otherwise be required to obtain in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices or this Agreement without regard to any appraisal requests made by any Holder of an Appraised Out Class.

(b) While an Appraisal Reduction Amount exists, (i) the amount of any Monthly Payment Advances shall be reduced as provided in Section 3.23(a), and (ii) the existence thereof will be taken into account for purposes of determining (a) the Voting Rights of certain Classes of Certificates as provided in Section 3.7(c) or (b) if a Control Termination Event is continuing.

(c) The Certificate Balance of each class of the Sequential Pay Certificates shall be notionally reduced (solely for purposes of determining (x) the Voting Rights of the related Classes and the Controlling Class and (y) whether a Control Termination Event is continuing on any Distribution Date) on any Distribution Date, to the extent of the Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to such Class on such Distribution Date. The Appraisal Reduction Amount for the Trust Loan for any Distribution Date shall be applied to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the Sequential Pay Certificates in the following order of priority: first, to the Class F Certificates; second, to the Class E Certificates; third, to the Class D Certificates; fourth, to the Class C Certificates and fifth, to the Class B Certificates; (provided in each case that no Certificate Balance in respect of any such Class may be notionally reduced below zero).

-82-

Appraisal Reduction Amounts shall not be applied to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of any Class A Certificate.

(d) In the event that a portion(s) of one or more Monthly Payment Advances with respect to the Trust Loan was reduced as a result of an Appraisal Reduction Event, the amount of the Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to interest shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of such reductions and the portion of such Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to principal shall be increased by such amount, and if the amounts of the Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to principal have been applied to pay the principal of the Trust Loan in full, any remaining Net Liquidation Proceeds shall then be applied to pay any remaining accrued and unpaid interest on the Trust Loan in accordance with Section 1.3.

(e) If (i) an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred, (ii) with respect to the Properties, either (A) no Appraisals or updates of the Appraisals have been obtained or conducted with respect to the Properties or Foreclosed Properties, as the case may be, during the 12-month period prior to the date of such Appraisal Reduction Event or (B) a material change in the circumstances surrounding the Properties or Foreclosed Properties, as the case may be, has occurred since the date of the most recent Appraisal that would materially adversely affect the value of the Properties or Foreclosed Properties, as the case may be, and (iii) no new Appraisal has been obtained or conducted for the Properties or Foreclosed Properties, as the case may be, within 60 days after the Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred, then (x) until the new Appraisal is obtained for the Properties, the appraised value of the Properties for purposes of determining the Appraisal Reduction Amount shall be equal to 75% of the appraised value set forth in the most recent Appraisal for the Properties or Foreclosed Properties, as the case may be (the “Assumed Appraised Value”), and (y) upon receipt or performance of the new Appraisal by the Special Servicer, the appraised value of the Properties or Foreclosed Properties, as the case may be, shall be based on such new Appraisal and the Appraisal Reduction Amount will be recalculated in accordance with the definition of Appraisal Reduction Amount.

Section 3.8. Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and Any Foreclosed Property Account. (a) The Servicer (and, with respect to the Foreclosed Property Account, the Special Servicer) may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Accounts or the Foreclosed Property Account, respectively (each, for purposes of this Section 3.8, an “Investment Account”), to invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments that bear interest or are sold at a discount, and that mature, unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such Investment Account pursuant to this Agreement. Any direction by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to invest funds on deposit in an Investment Account shall be in writing and shall certify that the requested investment is a Permitted Investment which matures at or prior to the time required hereby or is payable on demand. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee. The Trustee shall have sole control (except with respect to investment direction, which shall be in the control of the Servicer (or the Special Servicer, with respect to the Foreclosed Property Account) as an independent contractor to the Trust Fund) over each such investment and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly

-83-

to the Trustee or its agent (which shall initially be the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable), together with any document of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or its nominee. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to the investment directions of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall:

(i) consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

(ii) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the related Investment Account.

(b) All net income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be for the benefit of the Servicer in accordance with the terms and priorities of this Agreement. All net income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in the Foreclosed Property Account shall be for the benefit of the Special Servicer. Any net losses on funds in the Collection Account or the Foreclosed Property Account shall be reimbursed by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, from its own funds promptly, but in any event on or prior to the Remittance Date following the realization of such loss.

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Servicer shall take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings. In the event the Servicer takes any such action, the Trust Fund shall pay or reimburse the Servicer, pursuant to Section 3.4(c), for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Servicer in connection therewith.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the Collection Account, the Foreclosed Property Account, the Interest Reserve Account and the Lower-Tier Distribution Account (including interest, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such accounts) will be owned by the Lower-Tier REMIC, and the Upper-Tier Distribution Account (including interest, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such account) will be owned by the Upper-Tier REMIC, each for federal income tax purposes.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Servicer, nor the Special Servicer shall cover any losses from the bankruptcy or insolvency of a depository institution holding an account described in this Section 3.8, so long as (i) such depositary institution or trust company satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Institution at the time

-84-

such deposit was made and such institution was not an Affiliate of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable and (ii) such loss was incurred within 30 days after the earlier of (a) the date of such bankruptcy or insolvency or (b) the date on which the depositary institution or trust company failed to satisfy the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Institution.

Section 3.9. Payment of Taxes, Assessments, etc. The Servicer (other than with respect to any Foreclosed Property) and the Special Servicer (with respect to any Foreclosed Property) shall maintain accurate records with respect to the Properties (or any Foreclosed Property, as the case may be) reflecting the status of taxes, assessments, charges and other similar items that are or may become a lien on the Properties (or any Foreclosed Property, as the case may be) and the status of insurance premiums payable in respect of insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof. The Servicer shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums). The Servicer shall pay (or cause to be paid) real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other similar items from funds in the applicable Reserve Account in accordance with the Loan Agreement at such time as may be required by the Loan Documents. If the Loan Borrowers do not make the necessary payments and/or a Loan Event of Default has occurred and amounts in the applicable Reserve Account are insufficient to make such payments, the Servicer shall make a Property Protection Advance, subject to the determination of non-recoverability provided in Section 3.23, from its own funds for amounts payable with respect to all such items related to a Property when and as the same shall become due and payable. The Servicer shall ensure that the amount of funds in the applicable Reserve Account is increased when and if applicable taxes, assessments, charges and other similar items, ground rents or insurance premiums are increased, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement.

Section 3.10. Appointment of Special Servicer. (a) Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, is hereby appointed as the initial Special Servicer to service the Whole Loan while a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing and perform the other obligations of the Special Servicer hereunder.

(b) If there is a Special Servicer Termination Event with respect to any Special Servicer, such Special Servicer may be removed and replaced pursuant to Section 7.1. The Trustee shall, promptly after receiving notice of any such removal, so notify the Servicer, the Companion Loan Holders and, subject to Section 10.17, each Rating Agency. The appointment of any such successor Special Servicer shall not relieve the Servicer or the Trustee of their respective obligations to make Advances as set forth herein; provided, however, the initial Special Servicer specified above shall not be liable for any actions or any inaction of such successor Special Servicer. No termination fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer. No termination of the Special Servicer and appointment of a successor Special Servicer shall be effective until the successor Special Servicer has assumed all of its responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder in writing, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such appointment has been delivered to the Trustee and Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such appointment has been delivered to the Trustee. Any successor Special Servicer shall be deemed to make the representations and warranties provided for in Section 2.5(a) mutatis mutandis as of the date of its succession. The terminated Special Servicer shall retain all rights accruing to it under this Agreement, including the right to receive

-85-

fees accrued prior to its termination and other amounts payable to it (including indemnification payments).

(c) Upon determining that a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing, the Servicer shall immediately give notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, and the Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents (but excluding the original documents constituting the Mortgage File) and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to the Whole Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its duties hereunder with respect thereto. The Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five Business Days of the date that a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred. The Servicer in any event shall continue to act as Servicer and administrator of the Whole Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of the Whole Loan, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Special Servicing Loan Event, which shall occur, in the case of a Special Servicing Loan Event, upon the receipt by the Special Servicer of the information, documents and records referred to in the preceding sentence. The Special Servicer shall instruct the Loan Borrowers to continue to remit all payments in respect of the Whole Loan to the Servicer. The Servicer shall forward any notices it would otherwise send to the Loan Borrowers under the Whole Loan to the Special Servicer who shall send such notice to the Loan Borrowers while a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing.

(d) Upon determining that a Special Servicing Loan Event is no longer continuing, the Special Servicer shall immediately give notice thereof to the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Companion Loan Holders, and upon giving such notice such Special Servicing Loan Event shall cease, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service the Whole Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Servicer to service and administer the Whole Loan shall resume and the Special Servicer shall return all of the information and materials furnished to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.10(c) to the Servicer.

(e) In making a Major Decision or in servicing the Whole Loan during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to the Certificate Administrator originals of documents entered into in connection therewith that are required to be included within the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the Mortgage File (to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and copies of any additional related Whole Loan information, including correspondence with the Loan Borrowers, and the Special Servicer shall promptly provide copies of all of the foregoing to the Servicer as well as copies of any related analysis or internal review prepared by or for the benefit of the Special Servicer.

(f) During any period in which a Special Servicing Loan Event is continuing, no later than the Business Day preceding each date on which the Servicer is required to furnish a report under Section 3.18(a) to the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Servicer a written statement describing (i) the amount of all payments on account of interest received on each Note, the amount of all payments on account of principal received on each Note, the amount of Insurance Proceeds and Net Liquidation Proceeds received, the amount of any Foreclosure Proceeds received with respect to the Properties, and the amount of net income

-86-

or net loss, as determined from management of a trade or business on, the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of, or the receipt of any rental income that does not constitute rents from real property with respect to, any Foreclosed Property, in each case in accordance with Section 3.15 and (ii) such additional information relating to the Whole Loan as the Servicer or the Certificate Administrator reasonably requests to enable it to perform its duties under this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding subsection (c), the Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to the Whole Loan and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information reasonably required by the Special Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement.

(h) The Special Servicer, at the earlier of (x) within 60 days after the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event and (y) prior to taking action with respect to any Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to a Major Decision) if a Special Servicing Loan Event occurs, shall prepare a report (the “Asset Status Report”) for the Whole Loan. Each Asset Status Report will be delivered in electronic format to the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Servicer, the Companion Loan Holders (as and to the extent required under Section 5(d) of the Co-Lender Agreement) and, subject to Section 10.17, the Rating Agencies; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be required to deliver an Asset Status Report to the Controlling Class Representative if they are the same entity or affiliates of each other. Such Asset Status Report shall be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and set forth the following information to the extent reasonably determinable:

(i) summary of the status of the Whole Loan and any negotiations with the Loan Borrowers;

(ii) a discussion of the legal and environmental considerations reasonably known at such time to the Special Servicer, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, that are applicable to the exercise of remedies as aforesaid and to the enforcement of any related guaranties or other collateral for the Whole Loan and whether outside legal counsel has been retained;

(iii) the most current rent roll and income or operating statement available for the Properties;

(iv) the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how the Whole Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise realized upon;

(v) the appraised value of the Properties together with the appraisal or the assumptions used in the calculation thereof;

(vi) the status of any foreclosure actions or other proceedings undertaken with respect thereto, any proposed workouts with respect thereto and the status of any negotiations with respect to such workouts, and an assessment of the likelihood of additional Loan Events of Default;

-87-

(vii) a description of any proposed actions;

(viii) the alternative courses of action considered by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed actions;

(ix) the decision that the Special Servicer made or intends or proposes to make, including a narrative analysis setting forth the Special Servicer’s rationale for its proposed decision, including its rejection of the alternatives; and an analysis of whether or not taking such action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the net present value calculation (including the applicable discount rate used) and all related assumptions. In connection with the foregoing analysis, if any Loan Borrower has indicated its refusal to pay any Workout Fees, Special Servicing Fees or Liquidation Fees due to the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer must consider the costs to the Trust and analyze as an alternative a sale of the Whole Loan or of the related Foreclosed Property or other exercise of remedies;

(x) a summary of the status of any action that was described in the most recent prior Asset Status Report and subsequently effected by the Special Servicer; and

(xi) such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the proposed action and Accepted Servicing Practices.

For so long as there is no continuing Control Termination Event, if within 10 Business Days of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Controlling Class Representative does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing, then the Controlling Class Representative shall be deemed to have approved such Asset Status Report and the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, Accepted Servicing Practices, the Co-Lender Agreement or the terms of the applicable Loan Documents. In addition, for so long as a Control Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing, the Controlling Class Representative may object to any asset status report within 10 business days of receipt; provided, however, that if the Special Servicer determines that emergency action is necessary to protect the related Property or the interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, the Special Servicer may take actions with respect to the related Property before the expiration of the 10 Business Day period if the Special Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices that failure to take such actions before the expiration of the 10 Business Day period would materially and adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders, and (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Class Representative. If, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative disapproves such Asset Status Report within 10 Business Days of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made an affirmative determination pursuant to the proviso in the preceding sentence, the Special Servicer will revise such Asset Status Report and deliver to the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation

-88-

Termination Event), the Certificate Administrator, the related Companion Loan Holders and, subject to Section 10.17 of this Agreement, each Rating Agency a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days after such disapproval. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above until the Controlling Class Representative shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within 10 Business Days of receiving such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such objection is not in the best interests of all the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders constitute a single lender).

The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report, provided such report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section. In any event, for so long as a Control Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing, if the Controlling Class Representative does not approve an Asset Status Report within 60 Business Days from the first submission thereof, the Special Servicer shall take such action as directed by the Controlling Class Representative, provided such action does not violate Accepted Servicing Practices.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report or otherwise consult with the Special Servicer with respect to any matter set forth therein. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no right to consent to any Asset Status Report under this Section 3.10(h).

The Special Servicer shall be required to (x) deliver to the Certificate Administrator a proposed notice to the Certificateholders that will include a summary of the current Asset Status Report in an electronic format which format is reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator (which shall be a brief summary of the current status of each Property and current strategy with respect to the Trust Loan), and the Certificate Administrator shall be required to post such notice and summary (but not the Asset Status Report) on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (y) implement the Asset Status Report in the form delivered to the Depositor. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and, following delivery of such modified Asset Status Report to the 17g-5 Information Provider and a summary of the same to the Certificate Administrator, which the 17g-5 Information Provider and the Certificate Administrator, respectively shall post on their respective websites pursuant to Section 8.14(b) or Section 10.17, as applicable, implement such report.

(i) During the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Special Servicer shall have the authority to meet with the Loan Borrowers and take any actions consistent with Section 3.24, Accepted Servicing Practices and the most recent Asset Status Report.

-89-

(j) In addition, during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event, on the last day of each Collection Period the Special Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Servicer the CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File with respect to the Whole Loan.

(k) Beginning in 2017, the Special Servicer shall prepare and file on a timely basis the reports of foreclosure and abandonment of the Properties required by Section 6050J of the Code and the reports of discharges of indebtedness income in respect of the Trust Loan and each Companion Loan required by Section 6050P of the Code.

(l) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not follow any advice, direction or consultation provided by the Controlling Class Representative that would require or cause the Special Servicer to violate any applicable law or provisions of the Code resulting in an Adverse REMIC Event, be inconsistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, require or cause the Special Servicer to violate provisions of this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement, require or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of the Whole Loan, expose any Certificateholder or any party to this Agreement or their Affiliates, officers, directors or agents to any claim, suit or liability or materially expand the scope of the responsibilities of the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement.

Section 3.11. Maintenance of Insurance and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) The Servicer, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and the Loan Documents, shall use efforts consistent with the Accepted Servicing Practices to cause to be maintained by the Loan Borrowers (or if the Loan Borrowers fail to maintain such insurance in accordance with the Loan Agreement, the Servicer shall cause to be maintained to the extent the Trustee, as mortgagee of record, has an insurable interest) insurance with respect to the Properties of the types and in the amounts required to be maintained (to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates, provided, that the commercially reasonably requirement shall not apply with respect to terrorism insurance which will be governed by the Loan Documents) by the Loan Borrowers under the Loan Documents. The cost of any such insurance maintained by the Servicer shall be advanced by the Servicer, as a Property Protection Advance unless it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance in which case it shall be paid by the Trust, and as applicable, by the Companion Loan Holders pursuant to the Co-Lender Agreement. Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to maintain, and shall not cause the Loan Borrowers to be in default with respect to the failure of the Loan Borrowers to obtain, all-risk casualty insurance which does not contain any carve-out for terrorist or similar acts, if and only if the Special Servicer has determined, on an annual basis, that such failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default. In making any determination related to an Acceptable Insurance Default, the Special Servicer, to the extent consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, is entitled to rely on the opinion of an insurance consultant. Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to obtain terrorism insurance pursuant to this Agreement to the extent the Loan Borrowers would not be obligated to maintain terrorism insurance under the Loan Documents as in effect on the date thereof.

(b) The Special Servicer, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and the Loan Documents, shall cause to be maintained such insurance (including environmental insurance) with respect to any Foreclosed Property the Loan Borrowers are required to maintain with respect to the Properties referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 3.11 or, at the Special

-90-

Servicer’s election, coverage satisfying insurance requirements consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. The cost of any such insurance with respect to any Foreclosed Property shall be payable out of amounts on deposit in the Foreclosed Property Account or shall be advanced by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless such advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Any such insurance (other than terrorism insurance, which shall be maintained to the extent required under subsection (a)) that is required to be maintained with respect to any Foreclosed Property shall only be so required to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates. If the Special Servicer requests the Servicer to make a Property Protection Advance in respect of the premiums due in respect of such insurance, the Servicer shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of such request, make such Property Protection Advance unless such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, and if the Servicer does not make such Advance, the Trustee (within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of notice of the Servicer’s failure to make such Advance) shall make an Advance of the premiums to maintain such insurance, provided that, in each such case, such obligations shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement concerning Nonrecoverable Advances, the Trustee as mortgagee of record having an insurable interest and the availability of such insurance at commercially reasonable rates.

(c) The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may satisfy its obligations to cause insurance policies to be maintained by maintaining a master force placed or blanket insurance policy insuring against losses on the Properties or any Foreclosed Property, as the case may be for which coverage is otherwise required to be maintained as set forth in the preceding subsections of this Section 3.11. The incremental cost of such insurance allocable to the Properties or any Foreclosed Property, if not borne by the Loan Borrowers, shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. If such master force placed or blanket insurance policy contains a deductible clause, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be obligated to deposit in the Collection Account out of its own funds all sums that would have been deposited therein but for such clause to the extent any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the Whole Loan, or in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation that is consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices.

(d) Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense, and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, the issuer of which is rated no lower than the applicable Qualified Insurer Ratings, covering its directors, officers and employees, as applicable, in connection with its activities under this Agreement. Each such insurance policy shall protect the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, against losses resulting directly from forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions of such covered persons. Coverage of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate thereof and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.11(d) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.11(d). The amount of coverage shall be at least equal to the coverage that is required by applicable governmental authorities having regulatory power over the Servicer and the Special Servicer. If no such coverage amounts are imposed by such regulatory authorities, the amount of coverage shall be at least equal to the coverage that would be required by FNMA or FHLMC with respect to the Servicer and the Special Servicer if each were servicing and administering the Whole Loan for FNMA or FHLMC or as otherwise

-91-

approved by FNMA or FHLMC. In the event that any such bond or policy ceases to be in effect, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall obtain a comparable replacement bond or policy. Each shall use reasonable effort to cause each and every sub-servicer, if any, to maintain a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy meeting the requirements as described above. In lieu of the foregoing, but subject to this Section 3.11, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to self-insure with respect to such risks so long as its (or its immediate or ultimate parent’s) long term unsecured debt rating is rated no lower than “A-” by S&P or no lower than “A-” by Fitch (or if not rated by Fitch, an equivalent (or higher) rating by two other nationally recognized statistical rating organizations or otherwise acceptable to Fitch as confirmed by receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation from Fitch) or no lower than “A3” by Xxxxx’x.

(e) No provision of this Section 3.11 requiring such fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer or the Special Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to request, upon receipt of a written request from any Certificateholder, and the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each deliver or cause to be delivered to the Certificate Administrator, a certificate of insurance from the surety and insurer certifying that such insurance is in full force and effect. The Certificate Administrator will make any such certificate of insurance available to the requesting Certificateholder on a confidential basis.

Section 3.12. Procedures with Respect to the Trust Loan; Realization upon the Properties. (a) Upon the occurrence of a Loan Event of Default, the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee, subject to the terms of the Loan Documents and consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, shall promptly pursue the remedies set forth therein, including foreclosure or other realization on the Properties and the other collateral for the Trust Loan. In connection with any foreclosure, enforcement of the applicable Loan Documents or other realization on the Collateral, the Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, pay the costs and expenses in any such proceedings as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(b) Such proposed acceleration of the Whole Loan and/or foreclosure on a Property shall be taken unless the Special Servicer waives such Loan Event of Default (or modifies or amends the Whole Loan to cure the Loan Event of Default), which the Special Servicer may do if such modification, waiver or amendment is consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and does not cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or subject either such REMIC to any tax (other than a tax on “net income from foreclosure property” under Section 860G(c)) of the Code.

(c) In connection with such foreclosure as described in Section 3.12(a) or other realization on the Properties, the Special Servicer shall follow Accepted Servicing Practices; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to direct the Servicer, and neither the Special Servicer nor the Servicer shall be required, to expend its own funds to restore any Property damaged by an Uninsured Cause unless the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, permitted the related insurance policy to lapse in violation of its

-92-

respective obligations hereunder. If the Servicer does expend its own funds to restore the Properties damaged by an Uninsured Cause (which insurance policy did not lapse in violation of the Servicer’s obligations), such expense shall be a Property Protection Advance. In connection with any foreclosure, enforcement of the Loan Documents or other realization on the Collateral, the Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, pay the costs and expenses in any such proceedings as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer may not foreclose on the Properties on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders and thereby be the beneficial owner of the Properties, or take any other action with respect to such item that would cause the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders, to be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of a Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless the Special Servicer has previously determined, based on a report prepared at the expense of the Trust Fund by an independent person who regularly conducts site assessments for purchasers of comparable properties (a copy of such report to be provided to the Companion Loan Holders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator by the Special Servicer), that (i) the Properties are in compliance with applicable environmental laws or that taking the remedial actions necessary to comply with such laws is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis than not taking such actions and (ii) there are no circumstances known to the Special Servicer relating to the use of hazardous substances or petroleum-based materials which require investigation or remediation, or that if such circumstances exist taking such remedial actions is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a net present value basis than not taking such actions. The Special Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the Rating Agencies, subject to Section 10.17.

If the Special Servicer has so determined based on satisfaction of the criteria in this Section 3.12(d) that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender) (as determined in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices) to institute a foreclosure or take any other actions described in the immediately preceding paragraph, then subject to the rights of the Controlling Class Representative to consent to and/or consult in respect of such action, as applicable, the Special Servicer shall take such proposed action. The Special Servicer shall not foreclose upon or otherwise cause the Trust to acquire ownership of any Collateral other than the Properties unless it receives an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines that such Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance) to the effect that such acquisition will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.

The Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, advance the cost of any such compliance, containment, clean up or remediation as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

-93-

(e) The environmental site assessments contemplated by Section 3.12(d) shall be prepared by any Independent Person who regularly conducts environmental site assessments for purchasers of comparable properties, as determined by the Servicer in a manner consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. The cost of each such environmental site assessment shall qualify as a Property Protection Advance and shall be advanced by the Servicer unless the Servicer determines that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(f) Notwithstanding any acquisition of title to the Properties following a Loan Event of Default under the Whole Loan and cancellation of the Whole Loan, the Trust Loan and the Companion Loans, the Trust Loan and each Companion Loan shall be deemed to remain outstanding and, in the case of the Trust Loan, held in the Trust Fund for purposes of the application of collections and shall be reduced only by collections net of expenses. For purposes of all calculations hereunder, so long as the Trust Loan and any Companion Loan shall be deemed to remain outstanding, (i) it shall be assumed that the unpaid principal balance of the Trust Loan and the Companion Loans immediately after any discharge is equal to the unpaid principal balance of the Trust Loan or the Companion Loan immediately prior to such discharge and (ii) Foreclosure Proceeds shall be applied as provided in Section 1.3(b) and the Co-Lender Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall not acquire and hold for the benefit of the Trust Fund any personal property (including any non-real property Collateral) pursuant to this Section 3.12 unless:

(i) such personal property is incidental to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special Servicer; or

(ii) the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines that such Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance in which case it shall be treated as a trust fund expense) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest or Certificate is outstanding (and such Opinion of Counsel may be premised on the designation hereby of any such personal property as being deemed part of an “outside reserve fund” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) with the owner of such personal property for federal income tax purposes to be designated at such time)).

Section 3.13. Certificate Administrator to Cooperate; Release of Items in the Mortgage File. From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing of the Whole Loan or Foreclosure of or realization on any Property, the Certificate Administrator shall, upon receipt of written request of a Servicing Officer of the Servicer or the Special Servicer and delivery to the Certificate Administrator of a receipt for release in the form of Exhibit B hereto, release or cause to be released any items from the Mortgage File to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, within the lesser of (i) seven (7) calendar days and (ii) five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the related receipt for release. The Special Servicer shall institute all Foreclosures as

-94-

an authorized delegate of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders. In the event the Special Servicer cannot institute a Foreclosure in its own name, the Special Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Special Servicer in connection with any prosecution of any Foreclosure (including at the written request of a Servicing Officer of the Special Servicer, execute such documents furnished to it as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such Foreclosure). Such receipt for release shall obligate the Servicer or the Special Servicer to (and the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall) return such items to the Certificate Administrator when the need therefor by the Servicer or the Special Servicer no longer exists.

Section 3.14. Title and Management of Foreclosed Properties. (a) In the event that title to any Property is acquired for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, the deed, certificate of sale or other comparable document shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee (which shall not include the Special Servicer), on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders or as otherwise contemplated pursuant to Section 8.10. Title may be taken in the name of a limited liability company wholly-owned by the Trust and which is managed by the Special Servicer (the costs of which shall be advanced by the Servicer, provided that such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance). Promptly after such acquisition of title, the Special Servicer may consult with counsel to determine when an Acquisition Date shall be deemed to occur under the REMIC Provisions with respect to such Property, the expense of such consultation being treated as a Property Protection Advance. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders, shall dispose of any Foreclosed Property held by the Trust Fund as expeditiously as appropriate in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, but in any event within the time period, and subject to the conditions, set forth in Section 3.15 and Section 12.2. Subject to Section 12.2 and Section 3.14(e), the Special Servicer shall hire on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders a Successor Manager to manage, conserve, protect and operate such Foreclosed Property for the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such Foreclosed Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code (determined without regard to the exception applicable for purposes of Section 860D(a) of the Code) and such that income from the operation or sale of such property does not result in receipt by the Trust Fund of any income from non-permitted assets as described in Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code with respect to such property. In connection with such management, the Successor Manager shall be entitled to the REO Management Fee solely from the Foreclosed Property Account or the Collection Account.

(b) The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any Foreclosed Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to any Foreclosed Property a Foreclosed Property Account in either (A) the name of the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.6 or (B) the names of the limited liability companies wholly owned by the Trust.

(c) The Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject to Accepted Servicing Practices and the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement,

-95-

to do any and all things in connection with any Foreclosed Property for the benefit of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender) on such terms as are appropriate and necessary for the efficient operation or liquidation, as applicable, of any Foreclosed Property, so long as the Special Servicer deems such actions to be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer may retain an independent contractor to operate and manage any Foreclosed Property; provided, however, that the retention of an independent contractor will not relieve the Special Servicer of its obligations hereunder with respect to any Foreclosed Property.

The Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited within 2 Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds in the Foreclosed Property Account all revenues received with respect to any Foreclosed Property, and the Special Servicer shall cause to be withdrawn therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of any Foreclosed Property and for other expenses related to the preservation and protection of any Foreclosed Property, including, but not limited to:

(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of any Foreclosed Property;

(ii) all taxes, assessments, charges or other similar items in respect of any Foreclosed Property that could result or have resulted in the imposition of a lien thereon; and

(iii) all costs and expenses necessary to preserve any Foreclosed Property, including the payment of ground rent, if any.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the Foreclosed Property Account are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above, the Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, make a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d) On or before the last day of each Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the Foreclosed Property Account and deposit into the Collection Account the proceeds and collections received or collected since the preceding Remittance Date through the Business Day prior to the Remittance Date on or with respect to any Foreclosed Property (including any funds no longer needed in any reserves established as provided below), net of expenses paid therefrom and amounts reasonably expected to be needed to fund any reserves deemed necessary for the operation, preservation and protection of any Foreclosed Property, including without limitation, the creation of reasonable reserves for working capital, repairs, replacements and necessary capital improvements and other related expenses.

(e) The Special Servicer, in the name of the Trust Fund, shall (subject to Section 3.14(a)) contract with any Successor Manager for the operation and management of any Foreclosed Property; provided that no such contract shall impose individual liability on the Trustee or the Trust; provided, further, that:

-96-

(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent herewith;

(ii) any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Successor Manager (A) request that the Special Servicer pay from the Foreclosed Property Account all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of any Foreclosed Property, and (B) remit all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer, as soon as practicable but in no event later than the Business Day immediately following receipt, for deposit into the Foreclosed Property Account;

(iii) none of the provisions of this Section 3.14 relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Successor Manager shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its ordinary and regularly recurring duties and obligations to the Trust Fund on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders with respect to the operation and management of any Foreclosed Property; and

(iv) the Successor Manager shall be permitted to perform construction (including renovations) on any Foreclosed Property only if the construction was more than 10% complete at the time default on the Loan became imminent.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled, and to the extent required by the REMIC Provisions, shall be required, to enter into an agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. All REO Management Fees shall be Trust Fund Expenses payable from the Foreclosed Property Account or subject to reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.4(c)(xi). The Special Servicer agrees to monitor the performance of the Successor Manager and to enforce the obligations of the Successor Manager on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holder. Expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in connection herewith shall qualify as Property Protection Advances.

Section 3.15. Sale of Foreclosed Properties. (a) The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall sell any Foreclosed Property on a servicing released basis as expeditiously as appropriate in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices in a manner designed to preserve the capital of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders and not with a view to the maximization of profit, but in no event later than the Rated Final Distribution Date in a manner provided under this Section 3.15 and subject to Section 12.2.

(b) Subject to the consent or consultation rights of the Controlling Class Representative set forth in Section 6.5, the Special Servicer shall accept the highest cash bid for any Foreclosed Property received from any person that is at least equal to the Par Price attributable to such Foreclosed Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of any such bid, the Special Servicer shall accept the highest cash bid, if the highest offeror is a Person other than the Trustee, that the Special Servicer (or the Trustee as if the highest offeror is an Interested Person) determines is a fair price based on Appraisals obtained within the preceding nine month period or, in the absence of any such appraisal, on a new appraisal obtained by the

-97-

Special Servicer, the cost of which will be covered by, and reimbursable as, a Property Advance. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any Foreclosed Property, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with this Agreement within the preceding nine (9) month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal obtained by the Trustee at the expense of the Trust. The appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal shall be an Appraiser selected by (i) the Special Servicer if no Interested Person is making an offer with respect to a Foreclosed Property and (ii) the Trustee if an Interested Person is so making an offer. The cost of any such Appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable as, a Property Protection Advance. The requirements of this Agreement may result in lower sales proceeds than would otherwise be the case. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the rights of the Controlling Class Representative, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the higher cash offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender taking into account that Note B is junior to the A Notes), and the Special Servicer may accept a lower cash offer (from any person other than an Interested Person) if it determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender taking into account that Note B is junior to the A Notes). Any Holder of a Controlling Class Certificate, the Controlling Class Representative or any affiliate of the foregoing shall be entitled to participate in, and submit a bid in connection with, any sale of any Foreclosed Property, to the same extent as any other Certificateholder; provided that any such Holder of a Controlling Class Certificate and the Controlling Class Representative shall for all purposes be considered an Interested Person.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.14, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any Foreclosed Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. Any sale of a Foreclosed Property shall be without recourse to the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trust Fund, the Certificateholders or the Companion Loan Holders) (except that any contract of sale and assignment and conveyance documents may contain customary warranties, so long as the only recourse for breach thereof is to the Trust Fund) and if consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor or the Special Servicer shall have any liability to any Certificateholder with respect to the purchase price thereof accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(d) The proceeds of any sale effected pursuant to this Section 3.15, after deduction of the expenses incurred in connection therewith, shall be deposited in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.4(a).

(e) Within 30 days of the sale of a Foreclosed Property, the Special Servicer shall provide to the Trustee, the Companion Loan Holders and the Certificate Administrator a

-98-

statement of accounting for any Foreclosed Property, including, without limitation, (i) the date any Foreclosed Property was acquired in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, (ii) the date of disposition of such Foreclosed Property, (iii) the gross sale price and related selling and other expenses, (iv) accrued interest with respect to the Repurchase Price of such Foreclosed Property, calculated from the date of acquisition to the disposition date, and (v) such other information as the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator may reasonably request.

Section 3.16. Sale of the Whole Loan and the Trust Loan. (i) Promptly upon the Whole Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall order (but shall not be required to have received) an Appraisal. The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to promptly notify in writing the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, and the Companion Loan Holders, the Controlling Class Representative (so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) and the Trustee of the occurrence of such Special Servicing Loan Event, and the Special Servicer shall, within the time period specified in the Intercreditor Agreement, so notify the Mezzanine Lenders of the occurrence of such Special Servicing Loan Event. Upon delivery by the Special Servicer of the notice described in the preceding sentence, subject to the right of the Mezzanine Lenders to purchase the Loan pursuant to the Mezzanine Purchase Option, the Special Servicer may offer to sell to any Person, the Whole Loan or may offer to purchase the Whole Loan, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, that no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments thereon and such a sale would be in the best economic interests of the Trust and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender) on a net present value basis. The Special Servicer shall provide the Servicer, the Companion Loan Holders, the Certificate Administrator, the Controlling Class Representative (so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) and the Trustee not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell the Whole Loan, in which case the Special Servicer is required to accept the highest offer received from any Person (other than any Interested Person) for the Whole Loan in an amount at least equal to the Par Price or, at its option, if it has received no offer at least equal to the Par Price therefor, the Special Servicer may purchase the Whole Loan at the Par Price. Any Companion Loan is to be sold together with the Trust Loan, subject to this Section 3.16 and any additional requirements set forth in the Co-Lender Agreement.

(ii) In the absence of any offer at least equal to the Repurchase Price (or purchase by the Special Servicer for the Repurchase Price), the Special Servicer shall accept the highest offer received that is determined by the Special Servicer (or the Trustee as provided in the next sentence) to be a fair price for the Whole Loan, if the highest offeror is a Person other than the Trustee. If the highest bidder is an Interested Person, the Trustee shall determine the fairness of the highest bid based upon an Appraisal (which may be an Appraisal obtained in the last nine (9) months by the Special Servicer) obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund, and the Trustee may conclusively rely on the opinion of such Appraisal and such determination shall be binding upon all parties. All reasonable costs and fees of the Trustee in making such determination will be reimbursable to it first, by the Servicer as an Advance, subject to the Servicer’s determination that such amounts are not Nonrecoverable Advances, and then as an expense of the Trust. The Trustee, in its individual capacity, may not make an offer for

or purchase the Whole Loan. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Trust Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Trust Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee will be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this paragraph will be covered by, and will be paid in advance by the Interested Person as a condition to the Trustee’s determination; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. Any Holder of a Controlling Class Certificate, the Controlling Class Representative or any Affiliate of the foregoing will be entitled to participate in, and submit a bid in connection with, any sale of the Trust Loan to the same extent as any other Certificateholder; provided that any such Holder of a Controlling Class Certificate and the Controlling Class Representative shall for all purposes be considered an Interested Person.

(iii) The Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with Acceptable Servicing Practices, that the rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of the Certificates and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender taking into account that Note B is junior to the A Notes). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with Acceptable Servicing Practices, that the acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of the Certificates and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender taking into account that Note B is junior to the A Notes), provided that the offeror is not the holder of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of any of them. So long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the foregoing rights of the Special Servicer shall be subject to the rights of the Controlling Class Representative. The Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to sell the Whole Loan prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date.

(iv) Unless and until the Whole Loan is sold pursuant to this Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall pursue such other resolution strategies with respect to the Whole Loan, including, without limitation, workout and foreclosure, as the Special Servicer may deem appropriate, consistent with the Asset Status Report and Acceptable Servicing Practices and the REMIC Provisions.

(b) The right of the Special Servicer to purchase or sell the Whole Loan after the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event shall terminate, and shall not be exercisable as set forth in clause (a) above (or if exercised but the purchase of the Whole Loan has not yet occurred, the Special Servicer’s right shall terminate and such exercise shall be of no further force or effect) if the Whole Loan is no longer delinquent as a result of any of the following:

-100-

(i) the Special Servicing Loan Event has ceased pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (ii) the Whole Loan has become subject to a fully executed agreement reflecting the terms of the workout arrangement, (iii) the Whole Loan has otherwise been resolved (including by a full or discounted pay-off) or (iv) the Mezzanine Lenders have exercised their purchase option set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) Any sale of the Whole Loan shall be for cash only, and shall be in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Co-Lender Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Special Servicer shall not sell the Whole Loan pursuant to Section 3.16(a) without the written consent of the Companion Loan Holder (provided that such consent is not required from a Companion Loan Holder if such Companion Loan Holder is a Loan Borrower or an Affiliate of a Loan Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the Companion Loan Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Whole Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the permitted sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent appraisal for the Property, and any documents in the Loan File reasonably requested by such Companion Loan Holder that are material to the price of the Whole Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that such Companion Loan Holder may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. The Companion Loan Holder will be permitted to make offers to purchase, and either such party is permitted to be the purchaser at any sale of, the Whole Loan.

Section 3.17. Servicing Compensation. The Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to the Trust Loan and the Companion Loans payable monthly from the Collection Account or otherwise in accordance with and subject to Section 3.4(c). The Servicer shall be entitled to retain as compensation any late payment charges and certain other customary charges and fees to the extent described below, as well as reimbursement for all other costs or expenses incurred by it in performing its duties hereunder, in each case, to the extent actually received from the Loan Borrowers and permitted by, or not prohibited by, and to be allocated to such amounts by the terms of the Loan Documents and this Agreement, other than: (i) fees of any sub-servicer and the expenses of any sub-servicer that would not be reimbursable to Servicer if such expenses were incurred by the Servicer; (ii) the cost of any fidelity bond or errors and omissions policy required by Section 3.11(d); (iii) overhead expenses of the Servicer including but not limited to those which may properly be allocable under the Servicer’s accounting system or otherwise to the Servicer’s activities under this Agreement or the income derived by it hereunder including the costs to the Servicer associated with employees of the Servicer performing services in connection with the obligations of the Servicer hereunder; and (iv) costs and expenses arising from the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Servicer in performing its obligations hereunder (the “Servicer Customary Expenses”). So long as no Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing, the Servicer shall also be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation any late payment fees and Default Interest

-101-

(including any late payment fees and Default Interest collected after the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event but accrued prior to such Special Servicing Loan Event) (to the extent not applied pursuant to Section 3.4(c)), assumption fees, assumption application fees, defeasance fees, consent fees, substitution fees, release fees, Modification Fees (subject to the last paragraph of this Section 3.17), and similar fees and expenses to the extent, with respect to any such amounts, collected and allocated to such amounts as permitted by (or not otherwise prohibited by) the terms of the Loan Documents and this Agreement; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be entitled to apply or retain any Default Interest or any late payment charges, with respect to the Whole Loan, with respect to which a default thereunder or Loan Event of Default is continuing unless and until such default or Loan Event of Default has been cured and all delinquent amounts (including any Default Interest) due with respect to the Whole Loan have been paid in full and all interest on Advances has been paid in full. In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation release fees and any income earned (net of losses to the extent provided in this Agreement) on the investment of funds deposited in the Collection Account and any Reserve Account (to the extent not payable to the Loan Borrowers).

If a Special Servicing Loan Event occurs and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive a Special Servicing Fee with respect to the Trust Loan and the Companion Loans for so long as such Special Servicing Loan Event continues as well as reimbursement for all other costs or expenses incurred by it in performing its duties hereunder other than: (i) the cost of any fidelity bond or errors and omissions policy required by Section 3.11(d); (ii) overhead expenses of the Special Servicer including but not limited to those which may properly be allocable under the Special Servicer’s accounting system or otherwise to the Special Servicer’s activities under this Agreement or the income derived by it hereunder including the costs to the Special Servicer associated with employees of the Special Servicer performing services in connection with the obligations of the Special Servicer hereunder; and (iii) costs and expenses arising from the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Special Servicer in performing its obligations hereunder (the “Special Servicer Customary Expenses”). No Work-out Fee shall be payable to the Special Servicer if the Mezzanine Lender purchases the Trust Loan pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement (so long as such purchase occurs within 90 days after notice of the applicable event giving rise to such Mezzanine Lender’s option is delivered to such Mezzanine Lender; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, if there are one or more purchase option trigger events that occur following an initial purchase option trigger event, such 90 day period shall commence on the date the first notice of the initial purchase option trigger event was given to such Mezzanine Lender). If a Special Servicing Loan Event is terminated following resolution of such Special Servicing Loan Event by a written agreement with the Loan Borrowers negotiated by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Work-out Fee. If at any time the Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, to collect the amount of any Special Servicing Fee, Liquidation Fee and/or Workout Fee from the Loan Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.17 of the Loan Agreement, including exercising all remedies available under the Loan Agreement that would be in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, specifically taking into account the costs or likelihood of success of any such collection efforts and the Realized Loss that would be incurred by Certificateholders in connection therewith as opposed to the Realized Loss that would be incurred as a result of not collecting such amounts from the Loan Borrowers. Notwithstanding

-102-

anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Work-out Fee or a Liquidation Fee, but not both.

If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns after such written agreement is entered into and before or after the Special Servicing Loan Event is terminated, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Work-out Fees on all payments of principal and interest made on the Whole Loan following such written agreement (negotiated by such Special Servicer prior to its termination or resignation) for so long as another Special Servicing Loan Event does not occur and the successor Special Servicer shall have no rights with respect to such Work-out Fee. In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee with respect to any Liquidated Property or the liquidation of the Whole Loan or the Notes (whether through judicial foreclosure, sale, discounted payoff or other liquidation) as to which the Special Servicer receives Liquidation Proceeds. The Special Servicing Fee and any Liquidation Fee payable from Liquidation Proceeds (and not the Loan Borrowers) shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.4(c). The Special Servicer during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event shall also be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation any late payment fees (to the extent not applied pursuant to Section 3.4(c)), Default Interest (to the extent not applied pursuant to Section 3.4(c)), assumption fees, assumption application fees, Modification Fees (subject to the last paragraph of this Section 3.17), consent fees and similar fees and expenses and any income earned (net of losses to the extent provided in this Agreement) on the investment of funds deposited in the Foreclosed Properties Account.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement for an expense incurred under this Agreement or in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder unless (i) the amount of such payment to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is reimbursed to the Trust Fund by the Loan Borrowers (to the extent the Loan Borrowers are required to do so under the Loan Agreement); (ii) failure of the Loan Borrowers to reimburse for such payment constitutes a Loan Event of Default; (iii) such expense is an “unanticipated expense incurred by the REMIC” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) or is otherwise an unanticipated expense (it being understood that the Servicer Customary Expenses and the Special Servicer Customary Expenses are not unanticipated); or (iv) such reimbursement is expressly provided for herein or such expense is expressly described herein as an expense of the Trust Fund or as an Advance.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of the Servicer’s right to receive all or any portion of the Servicing Fee (or the Special Servicer’s right to receive all or any portion of the Special Servicing Fee) or other servicing compensation provided for herein shall be made, and any such attempted transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition shall be void, unless such transfer is made to a successor Servicer or successor Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with the assumption by such successor of the duties hereunder pursuant to Section 7.2.

With respect to each Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer on the Determination Date, and the Servicer shall deliver, to the extent it has received, or cause to be delivered to the Certificate Administrator, without charge

-103-

on the Remittance Date, an electronic report that discloses and contains an itemized listing of any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates during the related Collection Period.

The Special Servicer and its Affiliates shall be prohibited from receiving or retaining any compensation or any other remuneration (including, without limitation, in the form of commissions, brokerage fees, rebates and appraisal fees or as a result of any other fee-sharing arrangement) from any Person (including, without limitation, the Trust, any Loan Borrower, any manager of the Properties, any guarantor or indemnitor in respect of the Whole Loan and any purchaser of the Whole Loan or any Foreclosed Property) in connection with the disposition, workout or foreclosure of the Whole Loan, the management or disposition of any Foreclosed Property, or the performance of any other special servicing duties under this Agreement, other than as expressly provided in this Section 3.17; provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to Permitted Special Servicer/Affiliate Fees.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be entitled to 50% of any Modification Fees incurred in connection with the extension of the Stated Maturity Date of the Trust Loan or Companion Loans to which Special Servicer’s consent is required pursuant to clause (vii)(c) of the definition of Special Servicing Loan Event and (ii) the Special Servicer shall be entitled to 50% of any Modification Fees, assumption fees (excluding assumption application fees) or consent fees in connection with any Major Decision for which the Special Servicer’s consent is required.

(b) The Servicer shall furnish to the Certificate Administrator and the Mezzanine Lenders, to the extent required by the Intercreditor Agreement (and in the case of any Mezzanine Lender, unless it has foreclosed on its applicable Mezzanine Loan) in electronic format which format is reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator, the CREFC^® Reports produced by it pursuant to this Agreement not later than the time period specified in Section 3.18(a). For the avoidance of doubt, each of the CREFC^® Reports to be delivered by the Servicer will be prepared on a consolidated basis with respect to all the Properties and not at the individual Property level.

(c) The Servicer shall produce the reports described in this Section 3.18 solely from information provided to the Servicer by the Loan Borrowers pursuant to the Loan Agreement (without modification, interpretation or analysis) or by the Special Servicer, Loan Seller or Depositor pursuant to this Agreement.

-105-

available pursuant to Section 8.14(c) to Privileged Persons and providing such information shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Certificate Administrator.

If any of the parties to this Agreement receives a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E from any party in connection with any third-party due diligence services such party may have provided with respect to the Trust Loan (“Due Diligence Service Provider”), such receiving party shall promptly forward such Form ABS Due Diligence-15E to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website. The 17g-5 Information Provider shall post on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website any Form ABS Due Diligence-15E it receives directly from a Due Diligence Service Provider or from another party to this Agreement, promptly upon receipt thereof.

(c) The Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator, in the form of Exhibit M hereto, if the Special Servicer has actual knowledge that (a) the Mezzanine Lender has accelerated the related Mezzanine Loan secured by equity interests in the Loan Borrower and/or (b) a Mezzanine Lender has commenced foreclosure proceedings against the equity collateral pledged to secure the applicable Mezzanine Loan.

Section 3.22. Inspections. The Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the Properties not less frequently than once each year commencing in 2017; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to inspect the Properties if it has been inspected by the Special Servicer in the preceding 12 months. The Special Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the Properties as applicable and as soon as practicable following the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event and annually for so long as a Special Servicing Loan Event is continuing. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall further inspect, or cause to be inspected, the Properties whenever it receives information that the Properties have been damaged, left vacant, or abandoned, or if waste is being committed thereto. All such inspections shall be performed in such manner as shall be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. The cost of the annual inspections referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be an expense of the Servicer; the cost of all additional inspections referred to in this paragraph shall be a Trust Fund Expense and if paid by the Servicer shall constitute a Property Protection Advance or an Administrative Advance. The Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall prepare a written report of inspection and deliver it to the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall post such report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.14(b).

Section 3.23. Advances. (a) In the event that a Monthly Payment (or an Assumed Monthly Payment, as applicable) (other than the Balloon Payment) or any portion of a Monthly Payment (or an Assumed Monthly Payment, as applicable) (other than any Balloon Payment) on the Trust Loan has not been received by the close of the Business Day immediately prior to the Remittance Date, the Servicer, subject to its determination that such amounts are not Nonrecoverable Advances, shall make an advance on such Remittance Date to the Distribution Account, in an amount equal to the Monthly Payment (or an Assumed Monthly Payment, as applicable), or any such portion of the Monthly Payment (or an Assumed Monthly Payment, as applicable) on such Trust Loan that was delinquent as of the close of the Business Day immediately prior to such Remittance Date, in each case, net of the Servicing Fee (which will not be paid to the Servicer until the funds in the Collection Account are available for payment of

-106-

such fee); provided that neither the Servicer nor any other party shall be entitled to interest accrued on the amount of any Monthly Payment Advance with respect to the Trust Loan if the related Monthly Payment (or an Assumed Monthly Payment, as applicable) in respect of the Trust Loan is received by the Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, by 2:00 p.m., New York time, on such Remittance Date. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the amount of interest on the Trust Loan is reduced as a result of any modification to the Trust Loan, any future Monthly Payment Advance made with respect to such modified Trust Loan shall be in such amounts as may be required as a result of such reduction. The Servicer shall maintain a record of each Monthly Payment Advance it has made pursuant to this Section 3.23(a) on the Trust Loan and the amount allocated to the related Note on a Note-by-Note Basis and shall notify the Certificate Administrator thereof in the appropriate CREFC^® Reports in order to permit allocation thereof pursuant to Sections 3.4 and 3.5. In the event that the Servicer does not remit any amounts required to be remitted to the Certificate Administrator on each Remittance Date (including any amounts required to be remitted pursuant to Section 3.5 and any required Monthly Payment Advance) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account on the Remittance Date, the Servicer shall pay to the Certificate Administrator interest on such amounts at the federal funds rate for the period from and including the Remittance Date to but excluding the Distribution Date or, if earlier, the actual remittance date.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Monthly Payment Advance is made with respect to the Trust Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, then that Monthly Payment Advance, together with interest thereon, shall be reimbursed (with respect to both the related A Note and Note B), pro rata and pari passu with monthly interest advances on the Companion Loans.

At any time that an Appraisal Reduction Amount exists, the amount that would otherwise be required to be advanced by the Servicer in respect of delinquent payments of principal and interest on the Trust Loan shall be reduced by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the then outstanding principal balance of the Trust Loan minus the applicable Appraisal Reduction Amount and the denominator of which is the then outstanding principal balance of the Trust Loan.

(b) Subject to Section 3.23(e), the Servicer shall advance for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders, to the extent it determines that such amount is recoverable, all customary and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer or the Special Servicer in the performance of its servicing obligations, including, but not limited, to the costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) the preservation, restoration, operation and protection of the Properties which, in the Servicer’s sole discretion, exercised in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, are necessary to prevent an immediate or material loss to the Trust Fund’s interest in the Properties, (ii) the payment of (A) real estate taxes, assessments and governmental charges that may be levied or assessed against any of the Loan Borrowers or any of their affiliates or the Properties or revenues from the Properties or which become liens on such Properties, (B) insurance premiums, and (C) the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) to the extent not paid by the Loan Borrowers that are incurred in connection with assumption of the Whole Loan or a release of the Properties from the liens of the Mortgage, (iii) any enforcement or judicial proceedings, including foreclosures and

-107-

including, but not limited to, court costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs for third-party experts, including appraisers and environmental and engineering consultants, and (iv) the management, operation and liquidation of the Properties if such Property is acquired by the Special Servicer or its affiliate in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust (collectively, “Property Protection Advances”). During the continuation of a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Special Servicer shall give the Servicer and the Trustee not less than five Business Days’ written notice before the date on which the Servicer is requested to make any Property Protection Advance with respect to the Whole Loan or any Foreclosed Property; provided, however, that only three Business Days’ written notice shall be required in respect of Property Protection Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis (which may include, without limitation, Property Protection Advances required to make tax or insurance payments). In addition, the Special Servicer shall provide the Servicer with such information in its possession as the Servicer may reasonably request to enable the Servicer to determine whether a requested Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Special Servicer requests that the Servicer make an Advance, the Servicer may conclusively rely on such request as evidence that such advance is not a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(c) To the extent the Servicer fails to make an Advance that it is required to make under this Agreement, the Trustee shall be required to make such Advance pursuant to Section 7.6. It is understood that the obligation of the Servicer and the Trustee (pursuant to Section 7.6) to make such Advances is mandatory, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, and shall continue to apply after any modification or amendment of the Whole Loan pursuant to Section 3.24 hereof, beyond the Stated Maturity Date of the Whole Loan if a payment default shall have occurred on such date and through any court appointed stay period or similar payment delay resulting from any insolvency of any Loan Borrower or related bankruptcy, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than the requirement of recoverability, and shall continue, subject to the requirement of recoverability, until the earlier of (i) the payment in full of the Trust Loan and (ii) the date on which the Properties become liquidated.

(d) Interest on each Advance made by the Servicer or the Trustee shall accrue for each day that such Advance is outstanding at a rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate (the “Advance Rate”) for each such day (or the most recent day on which the Prime Rate was reported, if not reported on such day) on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed in a month. Interest on the Advances shall compound annually.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be obligated to make an Advance only to the extent that the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, has determined that such Advance, together with any previous unreimbursed Advances and interest on all those Advances at the Advance Rate, would not constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance if made. The Trustee and the Servicer, in that order, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any such Advances from the Collection Account and shall obtain such reimbursement in accordance with Section 3.4(c). If the context requires, each reference to the reimbursement or payment of an Advance shall be deemed to include, whether or not specifically referred to, payment or reimbursement of interest thereon at the Advance Rate through the date of payment or reimbursement.

-108-

(f) The determination by the Servicer or the Trustee that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by the delivery of an Officer’s Certificate to the Certificate Administrator, the Companion Loan Holders, the Controlling Class Representative (so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing), and the Trustee in electronic format which format is reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee (if such determination is made by the Servicer), detailing the reasons for such determination with supporting documents attached. Such Officer’s Certificate shall be made available to any Privileged Person by the Certificate Administrator posting such Officer’s Certificate to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.14(b). The costs of any appraisals, reports or surveys and other information requested by the Servicer or the Trustee establishing an Advance as a Nonrecoverable Advance shall be treated as Trust Fund Expenses, payable from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.4(c), and shall constitute a Property Protection Advance, as applicable, if paid by the Servicer or the Trustee from its funds. The Servicer’s determination of nonrecoverability in accordance with the above provisions shall be conclusive and binding on the Trustee and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively thereupon. The Trustee, in determining whether or not a proposed Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall make such determination in its reasonable business judgment.

(g) The Servicer and the Trustee are not obligated to advance or pay (i) the delinquent scheduled payments with respect to any Companion Loan, (ii) the Balloon Payment with respect to the Trust Loan or any Companion Loan (but are required to advance the Assumed Monthly Payment with respect to the Trust Loan), (iii) any Default Interest, (iv) amounts required to cure any damages resulting from Uninsured Causes (except as required pursuant to Section 3.12(c)), any failure of the Properties to comply with any applicable law, including any environmental law, or (except in connection with the foreclosure or other acquisition of the Properties in accordance with Section 3.12 upon the occurrence of a Loan Event of Default) to investigate, test, monitor, contain, clean up, or remedy an environmental condition present at the Properties, (v) any losses arising with respect to defects in the title to the Properties, (vi) any costs of capital improvements to the Properties other than those necessary to prevent an immediate or material loss to the Trust’s interest in the Properties or (vii) any yield maintenance amounts or prepayment premiums.

Section 3.24. Modifications of Loan Documents. (a) The Servicer (if no Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing) or the Special Servicer (during a Special Servicing Loan Event), subject to the rights of the Mezzanine Lenders under the Intercreditor Agreement, may modify, waive or amend any term of the Trust Loan if such modification, waiver or amendment (a) is consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and (b) does not result in an Adverse REMIC Event (and the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may obtain and be entitled to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel in connection with such determination). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event may the Servicer or the Special Servicer permit an extension of the Stated Maturity Date beyond the date that is the five years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date. In connection with (i) the release of any Property or portion thereof from the lien of the Mortgage or (ii) the taking of any Property or portion thereof by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the Loan Documents require the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to calculate the loan-to-value ratio of the remaining portion of the Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the Trust Loan,

-109-

then, unless then permitted by the REMIC Provisions, such calculation shall exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any.

(b) All modifications, waivers or amendments of the Whole Loan shall be in writing and shall be effected in a manner consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of the Co-Lender Agreement. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall notify the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Companion Loan Holders, the Controlling Class Representative (so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) and the Depositor, in writing, of any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of the Whole Loan and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator (in its capacity as custodian), the Companion Loan Holders and the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) an original recorded counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver or amendment within ten (10) Business Days following the execution and recordation thereof. In the event the Servicer or Special Servicer adversely modifies the interest rate applicable to any Note, any aggregate adverse economic effect of the modification shall be applied to the Certificates, in reverse order of seniority. If the Whole Loan is modified, the Trust Loan Rate on each Note shall not change for purposes of distributions on the Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall modify the Trust Loan Rates unless the Trust Loan is in default or default is reasonably foreseeable.

(c) Subject to Section 3.26, any modification of the Loan Documents that requires a Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to the Loan Documents, or any modification that would eliminate, modify or alter the requirement of obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmation in the Loan Documents, shall not be made without the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, first receipt of such Rating Agency Confirmation. Such Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained at the Loan Borrowers’ expense in accordance with the Loan Agreement or, if not so provided in the Loan Agreement or if none of the Loan Borrowers pay, at the expense of the Trust Fund.

(d) Promptly after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Special Servicer shall request from the Certificate Administrator the name of the current Controlling Class Representative. Upon receipt of the name of such current Controlling Class Representative from the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer shall notify the Controlling Class Representative that a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred. The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for providing the name of the current Controlling Class Representative only to the extent the Controlling Class Representative has identified itself as such to the Certificate Administrator; provided that if the Controlling Class Representative is determined pursuant to the proviso in the definition of “Controlling Class Representative”, then (i) the Certificate Administrator shall determine which Class is the Controlling Class and (ii) the Special Servicer shall request from the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall request from the Depository at the expense of the Trust, the list of Beneficial Holders of the Controlling Class, and the Certificate Administrator shall provide (on a reasonably prompt basis) such list to the Special Servicer and the Servicer at the expense of the Trust Fund.

(e) Subject to Section 3.26, prior to implementing any of the following actions, the Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such action:

(i) any transfer of the Properties or any portion of the Properties, or any transfer of any direct or indirect ownership interest in a Loan Borrower to the extent the Loan Lender’s consent is required under the Loan Documents, except in each case as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents without the Loan Lender’s consent or in connection with a pending or threatened condemnation;

(ii) any consent to incurrence of additional debt by a Loan Borrower or mezzanine debt by a direct or indirect parent of a Loan Borrower, including modification of the terms of any document evidencing or securing any such additional debt and of any intercreditor or subordination agreement executed in connection therewith and any waiver of or amendment or modification to the terms of any such document or agreement, in each case to the extent the mortgagee’s approval is required by the Loan Documents; and

(iii) any of the actions described in clauses (v), (vi) , (vii) or (ix) of the definition of “Major Decision”.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer and Special Servicer may, subject to certain conditions (but without any Rating Agency Confirmation) grant a Loan Borrower’s request for consent to subject the Properties to an easement, right-of-way or similar agreement for utilities, access, parking, public improvements or another similar purpose and may consent to subordination of the Whole Loan to such easement, right-of-way or similar agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not permit the substitution of the Properties pursuant to the defeasance provisions of the Loan Agreement unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) and the Servicer has received (i) replacement collateral consisting of government securities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), which satisfies the requirements of the Loan Documents, in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments required under the terms of the Whole Loan when due, (ii) a certificate of an Independent certified public accountant to the effect that such substituted property will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity) on the Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the Loan Documents, (iii) one or more Opinions of Counsel (at the expense of the Loan Borrowers) to the effect that the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund, will have a first priority perfected security interest in such substituted property; provided, however, that, to the extent consistent with the Loan Documents, the Loan Borrowers shall pay the cost of any such opinion as a condition to granting such defeasance, (iv) to the extent consistent with the Loan Documents, the Loan Borrowers shall establish a single purpose entity to act as a successor mortgagor, if so required by the Rating Agencies, (v) to the extent permissible under the Loan Documents, the Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to require the Loan Borrowers to pay all costs of such defeasance, including but not limited to the cost of maintaining any successor mortgagor, and (vi) to the extent permissible under the Loan

-111-

Documents, the Servicer shall obtain, at the expense of the Loan Borrowers, Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency.

(g) The Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance collateral substituted for any Property into the Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Whole Loan in advance of its Payment Date, and not as a prepayment of the Whole Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Collection Account for a period in excess of 365 days (or 366 days in the case of a leap year).

Section 3.25. Servicer and Special Servicer May Own Certificates. The Servicer, the Special Servicer and any agent thereof in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Servicer, the Special Servicer or such agent except as otherwise provided herein subject to the restrictions on voting set forth in the definition of Certificateholder.

Section 3.26. Rating Agency Confirmations. (a) Notwithstanding the terms of any Loan Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under any Loan Documents or this Agreement requires a Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action, if the party (the “Requesting Party”) attempting to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has made a request to any such Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation and, within 10 Business Days of the Rating Agency Confirmation request being posted to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, such Rating Agency has not replied to such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for a Rating Agency Confirmation, then such Requesting Party shall be required (without providing notice to the Depositor) to (i) confirm that the applicable Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and, if it has not, promptly request the related Rating Agency Confirmation again and (ii) if there is no response to either Rating Agency Confirmation request within 5 Business Days of such confirmation or such second request (after seeking to confirm that the applicable Rating Agency received such second Rating Agency Confirmation request), as applicable, then (x) with respect to any condition in the Loan Documents requiring a Rating Agency Confirmation or any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Whole Loan (other than as set forth in clause (y) below), the Requesting Party (or, if the Requesting Party is a Loan Borrower, then the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) will be required to determine, in accordance with its duties under this Agreement and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, whether or not such action would be in the best interest of Certificateholders, and if the Requesting Party (or, if the Requesting Party is a Loan Borrower, then the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that such action would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders, then the requirement for a Rating Agency Confirmation will not apply (provided, however, with respect to the release or substitution of any collateral relating to the Trust Loan, any Rating Agency Confirmation requirement that the Servicer or Special Servicer would have been permitted to waive pursuant to this Agreement will not apply without any such determination by the Requesting Party (or the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) (it being understood that the Requesting Party (or the Servicer, or the Special Servicer, as applicable) will in any event review the conditions required under the Loan Documents with respect to such release or substitution (if applicable) and confirm to its

-112-

satisfaction in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices that such conditions (other than the requirement for a Rating Agency Confirmation) have been satisfied)), and (y) with respect to a replacement of the Servicer or Special Servicer, such condition will not apply if such Servicer or Special Servicer is a Qualified Servicer. For all other matters or actions (a) not specifically discussed above in clauses (x) or (y) or (b) that are not the subject of a Rating Agency Declination, the applicable Requesting Party shall be required to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies.

(b) Any Rating Agency Confirmation requests made by the Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made in writing (an email shall be sufficient as a writing), which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and shall contain all back-up material the Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, reasonably deems necessary for the Rating Agency) (including those for Companion Loan Securities) to process such request. Subject to Section 10.17, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, shall furnish such written Rating Agency Confirmation request to each of the Rating Agencies.

(c) Promptly following the Special Servicer’s determination to take any action described in Section 3.26(a) without receiving Rating Agency Confirmation, the Special Servicer shall, subject to Section 10.17, provide written notice to the Rating Agencies.

(d) Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of the Certificates, acknowledges and agrees to the foregoing with respect to Rating Agency Confirmations.

Section 3.27. Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a) Notwithstanding the terms of the related Loan Documents, the other provisions of this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement, with respect to any Companion Loan as to which there exists Companion Loan Securities, if any action relating to the servicing and administration of the Whole Loan or the Foreclosed Property (the “Relevant Action”) requires delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action pursuant to this Agreement, then, except as set forth below in this paragraph, such action will also require delivery of a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action from each Companion Loan Rating Agency. Each Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation shall be sought by the Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, depending on whichever such party is seeking the corresponding Rating Agency Confirmation(s) in connection with the Relevant Action. The requirement to obtain a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to any Companion Loan Securities will be subject to, will be permitted to be waived by the Servicer and the Special Servicer on, and will be deemed not to apply on, the same terms and conditions applicable to obtaining Rating Agency Confirmations, as set forth in this Agreement; provided, that the Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, depending on which is seeking the subject Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, shall forward to one or more of its counterpart (i.e., the master servicer or special servicer, as applicable), the counterpart providing or posting Rule 17g-5 information, or such other party or parties (as are agreed to by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the applicable parties for the

-113-

related Other Securitization Trust), at the expense of the Other Securitization Trust to the extent not borne by the Loan Borrower, and in such format as the sender and recipient may reasonably agree, (i) the request for such Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation at least two (2) Business Days before it is sent to the applicable Companion Loan Rating Agency, (ii) all materials forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider under this Agreement in connection with seeking the Rating Agency Confirmation(s) for the applicable Relevant Action at approximately the same time that such materials are forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and (iii) any other materials that the applicable Companion Loan Rating Agency may reasonably request in connection with such Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation promptly following such request.

Section 3.28. Companion Loan Intercreditor Matters.

(a) If, pursuant to Section 2.8, or Section 3.16 of this Agreement, the Trust Loan is, in its entirety, purchased or repurchased from the Trust Fund, the subsequent holder thereof shall be bound by the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement and shall assume the rights and obligations of the holder of the Notes related to the Trust Loan under the Co-Lender Agreement. All portions of the Mortgage File and (to the extent provided under the Loan Purchase Agreement) other documents pertaining to the Trust Loan shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the purchaser of the Trust Loan in its capacity as the holder of the Notes related to the Trust Loan (as a result of such purchase, repurchase or substitution) and (except for the actual Notes) on behalf of the holders of the Note that represents the Companion Loan. Thereafter, such Mortgage File shall be held by the holder of the Trust Loan or a custodian appointed thereby for the benefit thereof, on behalf of itself and the Companion Loan Holder as their interests appear under the Co-Lender Agreement. If the related servicing file is not already in the possession of such party, it shall be delivered to the master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be, under any separate servicing agreement for the Whole Loan.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, but only to the extent required under the Co-Lender Agreement, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with the Companion Loan Holder with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan to the extent required under the Co-Lender Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver reports and notices to each Companion Loan Holder to the extent required under the Co-Lender Agreement.

(d) With respect to the Whole Loan, the Servicer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, on an ongoing basis, a statement setting forth, to the extent applicable to the Whole Loan:

(i) (A) the amount of the distribution from the Collection Account allocable to principal and (B) separately identifying the amount of scheduled principal payments, balloon payments, principal prepayments made at the option of the Loan Borrower or other principal prepayments (specifying the reason therefor), net liquidation proceeds and

-114-

foreclosure proceeds included therein and information on distributions made with respect to the Whole Loan;

(ii) the amount of the distribution from the Collection Account allocable to interest and the amount of Default Interest allocable to the Whole Loan;

(iii) the amount of the distribution to the Companion Loan Holder, separately identifying the non-default interest, principal and other amounts included therein, and if the distribution to the Companion Loan Holder is less than the full amount that would be distributable to such Companion Loan Holder if there were sufficient amounts available therefor, the amount of the shortfall and the allocation thereof between interest and principal and the amount of the shortfall, if any, under the Whole Loan;

(iv) the principal balance of each of the Whole Loan and the Companion Loan after giving effect to the distribution of principal as of the end of the related Collection Period; and

(v) the amount of the servicing compensation paid to the Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the most recent Distribution Date, showing separately the Servicing Fee, the Special Servicing Fee, the Workout Fee and the Liquidation Fee.

Not later than each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall make the foregoing statement available to the Companion Loan Holder by electronic means.

(e) At any time after a Companion Loan has become part of an Other Securitization Trust and provided that the applicable parties hereto have received written notice (which may be by email) thereof including contact information for the master servicer and special servicer with respect to such Other Securitization Trust, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Companion Loan Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement shall be delivered to the master servicer and special servicer with respect to such Other Securitization Trust (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to such master servicer and special servicer, the party hereto that is obligated under this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement to deliver such notices, reports, information or other deliverables shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Co-Lender Agreement.

Section 3.29. Intercreditor Agreement; Notice of Loan Event of Default to Mezzanine Lenders. The Servicer shall give notice of any Loan Event of Default to each Mezzanine Lender promptly (and, in the event of the failure to make a payment on its Loan Payment Date, such notice shall be given promptly following such Loan Payment Date) upon a Servicing Officer of the Servicer gaining actual knowledge of such default or Loan Event of Default, as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, whether or not the Servicer is obligated to give notice thereof to the Loan Borrowers. Such notice to the Mezzanine Lenders shall be given by certified mail, return receipt requested, by fax, by e-mail or by a nationally recognized overnight courier. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall exercise the rights of the Trust as successor in interest to the mortgagee under the Intercreditor Agreement. The

-115-

Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall comply with and enforce the rights and obligations of the Trust under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. The rights of the Trust and the Certificateholders in and under the Loan and the Loan Documents shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and each Certificateholder by acceptance of its interest in its Certificate will be deemed to agree to the terms thereof.

In no event will any Class of Certificates receive distributions in reduction of its Certificate Balance that in the aggregate exceed the original Certificate Balance of such Class.

(b) On each Distribution Date, each Class of Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests shall be deemed to receive (A) distributions in respect of principal in an amount equal to the amount of principal actually distributable to its respective Related Certificates as provided in Section 4.1(a), and (B) distributions with respect of reimbursement of Realized Losses in an amount equal to the reimbursement of Realized Losses actually distributable to its respective

-117-

Related Certificates as provided in Section 4.1(g). On each Distribution Date, each Class of Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests shall be deemed to receive distributions in respect of interest in an amount equal to the sum of the Interest Distribution Amount and Interest Shortfall in respect of its Related Certificates and the Interest Distribution Amount and Interest Shortfall in respect of the Class X-A and Class X-B Certificates, respectively, in the case of the Class LA and Class LB Uncertificated Interests, to the extent actually distributable thereon as provided in Section 4.1(a). Amounts distributable pursuant to this paragraph are referred to herein collectively as the “Lower-Tier Distribution Amount”, and shall be made by the Certificate Administrator by deeming such Lower-Tier Distribution Amount to be withdrawn from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to be deposited in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

As of any date, the principal balance of each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest shall equal its Lower-Tier Principal Amount. The Pass-Through Rate with respect to each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest shall be the rate per annum set forth in the Introductory Statement hereto.

Any amount that remains in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account on each Distribution Date after distribution of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and any Yield Maintenance Default Premiums distributed pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LT-R Interest, but only to the extent of the amount remaining in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account, if any).

Distributions to the Class R Certificateholders (in respect of the Class LT-R Interest) from the Lower-Tier Distribution Account and to the Class R Certificate holders (in respect of the Class UT-R Interest) and to other Certificateholders from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account on each Distribution Date shall be made by the Certificate Administrator (after withdrawing any amounts deposited in the Distribution Account in error to the extent funds are available for such purpose) to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date (other than as provided in Section 9.1 in respect of the final distribution), by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities therefor; provided that the Certificate Administrator has received appropriate wire transfer instructions therefrom, or by check by first class mail to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register if wiring instructions have not been received at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Distribution Date.

(c) All amounts distributable to a Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.1(a) on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in each such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Such distributions shall be made on each Distribution Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities therefor provided that the Certificate Administrator has received appropriate wire transfer instructions therefrom, or by check by first class mail to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register if wiring instructions have not been received at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Distribution Date. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but

-118-

only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the location specified by the Certificate Administrator in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

(d) The Certificate Administrator shall, as soon as reasonably possible after notice thereof by the Servicer to the Certificate Administrator that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates is expected to be made, mail to each Holder of such Class of Certificates on such date a notice to the effect that:

(i) the Certificate Administrator reasonably expects based upon information previously provided to it that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates shall be made on such Distribution Date, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Certificate Administrator therein specified; and

(ii) if such final distribution is made on such Distribution Date, no interest shall accrue on such Certificate from and after the Interest Accrual Period related to such Distribution Date.

(e) Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. All such amounts shall be held by the Certificate Administrator in trust in accordance herewith until the expiration of a two-year period following such second notice, notwithstanding any termination of the Trust Fund. If within two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator shall hold all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator hereunder and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund, at which time such amounts, subject to applicable law, shall be distributed to the Depositor. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust hereunder or by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.1(e). Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator will remain uninvested. In the event the Certificate Administrator is permitted or required to invest any amounts in Permitted Investments under this Agreement in the event of its assumption of the duties of, or becoming the successor to, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, it shall invest such amounts in Permitted Investments under clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Investments.

-119-

(f) Subject to the following sentence, the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the calculations with respect to distributions from the Trust so long as the Trust Fund has not been terminated in accordance with this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall have no duty to recompile, recalculate or verify the accuracy of information provided to it by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.18(a) and, in the absence of manifest error in such information, may conclusively rely upon it.

(g) On each Distribution Date, Realized Losses with respect to the Trust Loan shall be allocated to and applied as a reduction of the Certificate Balance of each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates in the following order:

first, to the Class F Certificates;

second, to the Class E Certificates;

third, to the Class D Certificates;

fourth, to the Class C Certificates;

fifth, to the Class B Certificates; and

sixth, to the Class A Certificates

in each case, until the Certificate Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.

The Notional Amount of the Class X-A Certificates shall be reduced by the amount of Realized Losses allocated to the Class A Certificates. The Notional Amount of the Class X-B Certificates will be reduced by the amount of Realized Losses allocated to the Class B Certificates.

Section 4.2. Withholding Tax. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall comply with all federal withholding requirements with respect to payments to Certificateholders or payees that the Certificate Administrator reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of Certificateholders or payees shall not be required for any such withholding and any information that the Certificate Administrator may need to comply with any withholding requirement shall be furnished to the Certificate Administrator. In the event the Certificate Administrator withholds any amount from interest payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder or payee pursuant to federal withholding requirements, amounts so withheld shall be treated as having been entirely distributed to such Certificateholder or payee, and the Certificate Administrator shall indicate the amount withheld to such Certificateholder or payee through a report.

Section 4.3. Allocation and Distribution of Yield Maintenance Default Premiums. On any Distribution Date, Yield Maintenance Default Premiums, if any, collected in respect of the Trust Loan as a result of an involuntary prepayment of the Loan following a Loan Event of Default during the related Collection Period shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the Holders of each Class of Certificates in the following manner: (1) pro rata, between (x) the group (the “YM Group A”) of Class A and Class X-A Certificates, and (y) the

-120-

group (the “YM Group B” and collectively with the YM Group A, the “YM Groups”) of Class X-B, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E and Class F Certificates, based upon the aggregate amount of principal distributed to the Classes of Sequential Pay Certificates in each YM Group on such Distribution Date, and (2) as among the Classes of Certificates in each YM Group, in the following manner: (A) the Certificateholders of each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates in such YM Group shall be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date an amount of Yield Maintenance Default Premiums, if any, collected in respect of the Trust Loan as a result of an involuntary prepayment of the Loan following a Loan Event of Default, equal to the product of (i) a fraction whose numerator is the amount of principal distributed to such Class on such Distribution Date and whose denominator is the total amount of principal distributed to all of the Certificates in that YM Group on such Distribution Date, (ii) the Base Interest Fraction for the related principal prepayment and such Class of Sequential Pay Certificates, and (iii) the Yield Maintenance Default Premiums, as applicable, collected during the related Collection Period and allocated to such YM Group, and (B) any Yield Maintenance Default Premiums, as applicable, allocated to such YM Group collected during the related Collection Period remaining after such distributions to the Sequential Pay Certificates in such YM Group will be distributed to the Class X Certificates in such YM Group.

On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall apply amounts related to Yield Maintenance Default Premiums then on deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account and received during or prior to the related Collection Period to the Class LA Uncertificated Interest pursuant to this Section 4.3.

Section 4.4. Statements to Certificateholders. (a) On each Distribution Date, based on information provided by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare and make available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.14(b) to any Privileged Person and Borrower Related Party that certifies that it is a Certificateholder or Beneficial Owner of a Certificate, a statement, based upon the information provided to it by the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, in respect of the distributions made on such Distribution Date (a “Distribution Date Statement”) setting forth, among other things:

(iii) the amount of any Monthly Payment Advance for such Distribution Date;

-121-

(iv) the Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, as applicable, of each Class of Certificates after giving effect to any distribution in reduction of the Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, as applicable, on such Distribution Date and the allocation of Realized Losses on such Distribution Date, and the amount of Realized Losses allocated to each Class on such Distribution Date;

(v) the principal balance of the Trust Loan and each Companion Loan and the principal balance of each Note as of the end of the Collection Period for such Distribution Date;

If a holder of a Rule 144A Global Certificate, Regulation S Global Certificate or Non-Book Entry Certificate wishes at any time to transfer its interest in such Rule 144A Global Certificate, Regulation S Global Certificate or Non-Book Entry Certificate to a Person who is required to take delivery thereof in the form of a Non-Book Entry Certificate, then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon): (i) an investment representation letter from the proposed transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J-1 to this Agreement and (ii) if required by the Certificate Registrar, an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar to the effect that such transfer shall be made without registration under the Securities Act, together with the written certification(s) as to the facts surrounding such transfer from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and/or the proposed transferee on which such opinion of counsel is based (such opinion of counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust or of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in their respective capacities as such).

(i) Other Exchanges. In the event that a Global Certificate is exchanged for a Definitive Certificate, such Certificates may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of clauses (c) through (f) and (h) above (including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, at the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Certificate Registrar.

(j) Restricted Period. Prior to the termination of the Restricted Period with respect to the issuance of the Certificates, transfers of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate to U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to transfers made pursuant to the provisions of clause (e) above.

(k) If Certificates are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Certificates bearing a restrictive legend relating to compliance with the Securities Act, or if a request is made to remove such legend on Certificates, the Certificates so issued shall bear the restrictive legend, or such legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A, Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Securities Act or, with respect to Non-Book Entry Certificates, that such Certificates are not “restricted” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Certificates that do not bear such legend.

-133-

(l) All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the Certificate Registrar’s customary procedures.

(m) No Class E, Class F or Class R Certificate may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be an “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA that is subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, or any “plan” within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or any other plan or arrangement subject to any federal, state or local law materially similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (“Similar Law”) or a Person whose assets include the assets of any such employee benefit plan or plan within the meaning of Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise (each, a “Benefit Plan”), or any person acting on behalf of any such Benefit Plan or using the assets of a Benefit Plan to purchase such Certificate, other than, in the case of a Class E or Class F Certificate, an insurance company using assets of its general account under circumstances whereby such purchase and the subsequent holding of such Certificates by such insurance company would be exempt from the prohibited transaction provisions of Sections 406 and 407 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Sections I and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60, or a substantially similar exemption under Similar Law. Each prospective transferee of a Class E, Class F or Class R Certificate in definitive form (other than the Initial Purchaser) shall deliver to the transferor, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit O, stating that the prospective transferee meets the requirements of the preceding sentence. Each transferee of an interest in a Class E, Class F or Class R Certificate in the form of a Global Certificate will be deemed to have represented that it meets the requirements of the second preceding sentence. No Class A, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class B, Class C or Class D Certificates may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be a Benefit Plan, or any person acting on behalf of a Benefit Plan or using the assets of a Benefit Plan to purchase such Certificate, unless (A) the purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1) of the Securities Act and (B) the acquisition, holding and disposition of such Certificate by the purchaser will not constitute or otherwise result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or a similar non-exempt violation of Similar Law). Any purported transfer in violation of this Section 5.3(m) shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any such purported purchaser or transferee.

(n) Each Person who has or acquires any Residual Ownership Interest shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Residual Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and the rights of each Person acquiring any Residual Ownership Interest are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(i) Each Person acquiring or holding any Residual Ownership Interest shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall not acquire or hold such Residual Ownership Interest as agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) on behalf of any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee. Any such Person shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change in its status (or the status of the beneficial owner of such Residual Ownership Interest) as a Permitted Transferee. Any acquisition of a Residual Ownership Interest by a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee or by a

-134-

Person who is acting as an agent of a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee shall be void ab initio and of no effect, and the immediately preceding owner who was a Permitted Transferee shall be restored to registered and beneficial ownership of the Residual Ownership Interest as soon and as fully as possible.

(ii) No Residual Ownership Interest may be transferred, and no such transfer shall be registered in the Certificate Register, without the express written consent of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not recognize the transfer, and such proposed transfer shall not be effective, without such consent with respect thereto. In connection with any proposed transfer of any Residual Ownership Interest, the Certificate Registrar shall, as a condition to such consent, (x) require the proposed transferee to deliver, and the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar and to the proposed transferor, an affidavit in substantially the form attached as Exhibit J-2 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) of the proposed transferee (A) that such proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee and (B) stating that (1) the proposed transferee historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (2) the proposed transferee understands that, as the holder of a Residual Ownership Interest, it may incur liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (3) the proposed transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Residual Ownership Interest as they become due, (4) the proposed transferee will not cause income with respect to the Residual Ownership Interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of such proposed transferee or any other U.S. Person, (5) the proposed transferee will not transfer the Residual Ownership Interest to any Person that does not provide a Transferee Affidavit or as to which the proposed transferee has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, and (6) the proposed transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of this Section 5.3(n) and (y) other than in connection with the initial issuance of a Class R Certificate, require a statement from the proposed transferor substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J-3 (the “Transferor Letter”), that the proposed transferor has no actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed transferee’s statements in the Transferee Affidavit are false.

(iii) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed transferee under clause (ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no transfer to such proposed transferee shall be effected and such proposed transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, however, the Certificate Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee. Upon notice to the Certificate Registrar that there has occurred a transfer to any Person that is a Disqualified Organization or an agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, and in any event not later than 60 days after a request for information from the transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator agree to furnish to the IRS and the

-135-

transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent such information necessary to the application of Section 860E(e) of the Code as may be required by the Code, including, but not limited to, the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect to such Class R Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such transfer. At the election of the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar may charge a reasonable fee for computing and furnishing such information to the transferor or to such agent referred to above; provided, however, such Persons shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.

(iv) The Class R Certificates may only be issued as Definitive Certificates and transferred to and owned by QIBs.

Section 5.4. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Certificate Registrar shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and interest in the Trust Fund. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.4, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 5.5. Persons Deemed Owners. The Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that to the extent that a party to this Agreement responsible for distributing any report, statement or other information required to be distributed to Certificateholders has been provided an Investor Certification, such party to this Agreement shall distribute such report, statement or other information to such beneficial owner (or prospective transferee).

Section 5.6. Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses; Special Notices. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain in as current form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders. If any Certificateholder that has provided an Investor Certification (a) requests in writing from the Certificate Registrar a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders, (b) states that such Certificateholder desires to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to its rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and (c) provides a copy of the communication which such Certificateholder proposes to transmit,

-136-

then the Certificate Registrar shall, within ten Business Days after the receipt of such request, afford such Certificateholder access during normal business hours to a current list of the Certificateholders. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that the Certificate Registrar shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. The Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Depositor shall be entitled to a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders from time to time upon request therefor.

Upon the written request of any Certificateholder that (a) has provided an Investor Certification, (b) states that such Certificateholder desires the Certificate Administrator to transmit a notice to all Certificateholders stating that such Certificateholder wishes to be contacted by other Certificateholders, setting forth the relevant contact information and briefly stating the reason for the requested contact (a “Special Notice”) and (c) provides a copy of the Special Notice which such Certificateholder proposes to transmit, the Certificate Administrator shall post such Special Notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.14(b) and shall mail such Special Notice to all Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing on the Certificate Register. The costs and expenses of the Certificate Administrator associated with delivering any such Special Notice shall be borne by the party requesting such Special Notice. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Certificate Registrar shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such Special Notice to Certificateholders, regardless of the information set forth in such Special Notice.

Section 5.7. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

(a) At any time prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to terminate the rights (subject to Section 6.3 of this Agreement) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement, with or without cause, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Special Servicer, the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee. Upon a termination (pursuant to the prior sentence) or a resignation of the Special Servicer, the Controlling Class Representative shall appoint a successor Special Servicer; provided, however, that (i) such successor will meet the requirements set forth in Section 7.2 of this Agreement and (ii) the Controlling Class Representative shall (at no expense to the Trust) obtain and deliver to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such proposed successor acting as a Special Servicer.

Upon the written direction of (a) Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Voting Rights of the Certificates that vote so long as they constitute a Certificateholder Quorum of the Certificates or (b) Holders of those Classes of Sequential Pay Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the Voting Rights of each Class of Non-Reduced Certificates, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights (subject to Section 6.3 of this Agreement) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement, and the proposed successor Special Servicer shall succeed to the duties of the Special Servicer all as if a removal and replacement were occurring pursuant to Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 of this Agreement; provided that if such written direction is not provided within 180 days of the initial request for a vote to terminate and replace the Special Servicer, then such written direction shall have no force and effect.

Section 6.5. The Controlling Class Representative.

(a) For so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to (1) if a Special Servicing Loan Event occurs, advise the Special Servicer and (2) if a Special Servicing Loan Event has not occurred, advise the Special Servicer as to all matters for which the Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer for a Major Decision. In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as set forth in, and in any event subject to Section 6.5(b) and the second and third paragraphs of this Section 6.5(a), both (a) the Servicer shall not be permitted to take any of the actions constituting a Major Decision unless it has obtained the consent of the Special Servicer, who shall have 15 Business Days (or 60 days with respect to the determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default) (from the date that the Special Servicer receives the information from the Servicer) to analyze and make a recommendation regarding such Major Decision (provided that if the Special Servicer does not consent, or notify the Servicer that it will not consent, to such Major Decision within the required 15 Business Days or 60 days, as applicable, the Special Servicer shall be deemed to have consented to such Major Decision) and (b) for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to consent to the Servicer’s taking any of the actions constituting a Major Decision nor will the Special Servicer itself be permitted to take any of the actions constituting a Major Decision as to which the Controlling Class Representative has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis from the Special Servicer; provided that if such written objection

-141-

has not been received by the Special Servicer within such ten (10) Business Day period or twenty (20) day period, as applicable, then the Controlling Class Representative will be deemed to have approved such action; provided further, that, in the event that the Special Servicer or Servicer (in the event the Servicer is otherwise authorized by this Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to a Major Decision, or any other matter requiring consent of the Controlling Class Representative prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event in this Agreement, is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders, the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Class Representative’s (or, if applicable, the Special Servicer’s) response. The Special Servicer is not required to obtain the consent of the Controlling Class Representative for any Major Decision following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event; provided that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall consult (on a non-binding basis) with the Controlling Class Representative (until the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Controlling Class Representative, but only to the extent such consultation with, or consent of, the Controlling Class Representative would have been required prior to the occurrence and continuance of such Control Termination Event.

In addition, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative may direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Trust Loan as the Controlling Class Representative may reasonably deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such direction, and no objection contemplated by the preceding paragraph or this paragraph, may require or cause the Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate any provision of the Loan Documents, the Co-Lender Agreement (including Section 5(d) of the Co-Lender Agreement regarding certain consultation with the Companion Loan Holders), applicable law or this Agreement, including without limitation each of the Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, or expose the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust Fund or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the scope of the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities hereunder or cause the Servicer or the Special Servicer to act, or fail to act, in a manner which in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer or the Special Servicer is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders.

In the event the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by the Controlling Class Representative or any advice from the Controlling Class Representative would otherwise cause the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of the Loan Documents, applicable law, the provisions of the Code resulting in an Adverse REMIC Event or this Agreement, including without limitation, Accepted Servicing Practices, the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent or advise and notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Trustee and, subject to Section 10.17 of this Agreement, the Rating Agencies of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of, or refraining from taking, any action by the Servicer or Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval of the Controlling Class Representative that does not violate any law or Accepted Servicing

-142-

Practices or any other provisions of this Agreement, will not result in any liability on the part of the Servicer or the Special Servicer.

The Controlling Class Representative shall have no liability to the Trust Fund, the Certificateholders or the Companion Loan Holders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, pursuant to this Agreement, or for error in judgment; provided, however, that the Controlling Class Representative will not be protected against any liability to any Controlling Class Certificateholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of negligent disregard of obligations or duties.

By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Controlling Class Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii) the Controlling Class Representative may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class; (iii) the Controlling Class Representative does not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Controlling Class; (iv) the Controlling Class Representative may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Certificates; and (v) the Controlling Class Representative shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to a Controlling Class Certificateholder) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i)-(iv) of this paragraph, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Controlling Class Representative or any affiliate, director, member, officer, employee, shareholder, member, partner, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no right to consent to any action taken or not taken by any party to this Agreement; (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and the Special Servicer shall consult with the Controlling Class Representative in connection with any action to be taken or refrained from taking to the extent set forth herein; and (iii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no consultation or consent rights hereunder and no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Controlling Class Representative.

(c) Each Certificateholder and Beneficial Owner of a Control Eligible Certificate is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of such Certificate (or beneficial ownership interest in such Certificate) to provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and to notify the Certificate Administrator of the transfer of any Control Eligible Certificate (or the beneficial ownership of any Control Eligible Certificate), the selection of a Controlling Class Representative or the resignation or removal thereof. Any such Certificateholder (or Beneficial Owner) or its designee at any time appointed Controlling Class Representative is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Control Eligible

-143-

Certificate (or the beneficial ownership interest in a Control Eligible Certificate) to notify the Certificate Administrator when such Certificateholder (or Beneficial Owner) or designee is appointed Controlling Class Representative and when it is removed or resigns. Upon receipt of such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Special Servicer, the Servicer and the Trustee of the identity of the Controlling Class Representative, any resignation or removal thereof and/or any new Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Control Eligible Certificate. In addition, upon the request of the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator shall provide (on a reasonably prompt basis) the identity of the then current Controlling Class and a list of the Certificateholders (or Beneficial Owners), if applicable, at the expense of the Trust if such expense arises in connection with an event as to which the Controlling Class Representative or the Controlling Class has consent or consultation rights pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise at the expense of the requesting party and each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such information so provided by the Certificate Administrator.

The Certificate Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer will not be charged with knowledge of any Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event, in each case, resulting from an affiliation of the Controlling Class Representative or a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders (by Certificate Balance) with a Borrower Related Party, unless and until it shall have received notice of such occurrence from the Controlling Class Representative or a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders (by Certificate Balance) substantially in the form of Exhibit P upon which each party may conclusively rely.

In the event of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly contact the then-current Controlling Class Representative (if any) or Controlling Class Certificateholder(s), and determine whether such entity is the Holder (or Beneficial Owner) of at least a majority of the Controlling Class (in effect after such change in Controlling Class) by Certificate Balance. If at any time that the initial Holder (or Beneficial Owner) of at least a majority of the Controlling Class by Certificate Balance is no longer the Holder (or Beneficial Owner) of at least a majority of the Controlling Class by Certificate Balance and the Certificate Registrar has neither (i) received notice of the then current Controlling Class Certificateholders of at least a majority of the Controlling Class by Certificate Balance nor (ii) received notice of a replacement Controlling Class Representative pursuant to this Agreement, then a Control Termination Event and a Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be deemed to continue until such time as the Certificate Administrator receives either such notice.

Upon receipt of notice of a change in Controlling Class Representative, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly forward notice thereof to each other party to this Agreement.

(d) If at any time a book entry certificate belongs to the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall contact the related Beneficial Owner or Beneficial Owners (through the Depository, unless the Certificate Administrator shall have been previously provided with the name and address of such Beneficial Owner or Beneficial Owners) and shall request that it be informed of any change in the identity of the related Beneficial Owner from time to time.

-144-

(e) Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer the Depositor and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of the Certificateholders of the Controlling Class and the Controlling Class Representative.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the holder of more than 50% of the Certificates of the Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) may, at any time, waive its right to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative and to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative or cause the exercise of any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative set forth in this Agreement, by irrevocable written notice delivered to the Depositor, Certificate Administrator, Trustee, Servicer and Special Servicer. Any such waiver will remain effective with respect to such holder and the Controlling Class until such time as that Certificateholder has (i) sold a majority of the Certificates of the Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) to an unaffiliated third party and (ii) certified to the Depositor, Certificate Administrator, Trustee, Servicer and Special Servicer that (a) the transferor retains no direct or indirect voting rights with respect to the Certificates of the Controlling Class that it does not own, (b) there is no voting agreement between the transferee and the transferor and (c) the transferor retains no direct or indirect economic interest in the Controlling Class. Following any such transfer, the successor holder of more than 50% of the Certificates of the Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) will again have the rights of the Controlling Class Representative as described herein without regard to any prior waiver by the predecessor Certificateholder. Such successor Certificateholder will also have the right to irrevocably waive its right to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative or to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative or cause the exercise of any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative. No such successor Certificateholder described above in this paragraph will have any consent rights with respect to the Whole Loan if a Special Servicing Loan Event exists at the time of its acquisition of a majority of the Certificates of the Controlling Class, until such Special Servicing Loan Event no longer exists. Whenever such an “opt-out” by a Controlling Class Certificateholder is in effect, a Control Termination Event and a Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to have occurred and continue.

The holder of more than 50% of the Certificates of the Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) has waived its right to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative. As a result of such waiver, as of the Closing Date there will be no Controlling Class Representative and a Control Termination Event and a Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to have occurred.

Section 6.6. Servicer and Special Servicer Not to Resign. (a) Each of the Servicer and Special Servicer may resign and assign its respective rights and delegate its duties and obligations under this Agreement to any Person or to an entity, provided that:

(i) the Person accepting such assignment and delegation (A) shall be an established mortgage finance institution, bank or mortgage servicing institution having a net worth of not less than $25,000,000, organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state of the United States or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to perform the duties of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, (B) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee an agreement in form and

-145-

substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, under this Agreement from and after the date of such agreement; provided, however that to the extent such agreement modifies in any respect any of the covenants, terms or conditions in this Agreement to be performed by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, such agreement shall be subject to the approval of the Trustee, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and (C) shall make such representations and warranties of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, as provided in Section 2.4 and Section 2.5;

(ii) Rating Agency Confirmation has been received;

(iii) the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement that arose prior to the effective date of such assignment and delegation under this Section 6.6(a);

(iv) the rate at which the Servicing Fee or Special Servicing Fee, as applicable (or any component thereof) is calculated shall not exceed the rate then in effect; and

(v) the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, and the Rating Agencies for any expenses of such assignment, sale or transfer.

Any attempted resignation and assignment shall be void, unless such resignation and assignment satisfies the conditions set forth above. Upon satisfaction of the foregoing requirements and acceptance of such assignment, such Person shall be the successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder.

(b) Other than as set forth in Sections 6.2 and 6.6(a), none of the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall resign from its obligations and duties hereby imposed on it, except upon determination that performance of its duties hereunder is no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor. No resignation by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement shall become effective until a successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.2. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, each of the Servicer or Special Servicer may assign its duties and obligations under this Agreement under certain limited circumstances as described herein.

(c) In the event the Special Servicer obtained knowledge that it has become a Borrower Related Party, the Special Servicer shall provide notice to each of the other parties to this Agreement of such event and resign as Special Servicer and use reasonable efforts to replace itself with a special servicer that is a Qualified Servicer, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the proviso to Section 6.4(a) and the agreement of a proposed successor to

-146-

accept the same or lower compensation; provided that if no such appointment is made within thirty (30) days of the Special Servicer becoming a Borrower Affiliate, such failure shall be deemed a Special Servicer Termination Event and the Trustee shall promptly deliver written notice to the Special Servicer of the Special Servicer’s failure to perform the foregoing obligation. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative will be entitled to appoint (and replace with or without cause) a successor special servicer that is a Qualified Servicer and not a Borrower Related Party in accordance with the terms herein, unless the Controlling Class Representative is a Borrower Related Party. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the resigning Special Servicer will be required to use reasonable efforts to appoint a successor special servicer that is a Qualified Servicer and not a Borrower Related Party in accordance with the terms herein and shall, at the expense of the Issuing Entity, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor special servicer if one is not appointed within 60 days.

Section 6.7. Indemnification by the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Depositor. Each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Depositor, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust, the Companion Loan Holders and each other party to this Agreement from and against any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses incurred by the Trust, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or such other party that arise out of or are based upon (i) a breach by the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, of its representations and warranties under this Agreement or (ii) negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, in the performance of such obligations or its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

(iv) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and such decree or order has remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; provided, however, that, with respect to any such decree or order that cannot be discharged, dismissed or stayed within such sixty (60) day period, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as appropriate, will have an additional period of thirty (30) days to effect such discharge, dismissal or stay so long as it has commenced proceedings to have such decree or order dismissed, discharged or stayed within the initial sixty (60) day period and has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such discharge, dismissal or stay;

(viii) with respect to the Servicer, the Servicer ceases to have a commercial master servicer rating of at least “CMS3” from Fitch and that rating is not reinstated within 60 days of downgrade or withdrawal of such rating or, with respect to the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer ceases to have a commercial special servicer rating of at least “CSS3” from Fitch and that rating is not reinstated within 60 days of downgrade or withdrawal of such rating, as the case may be;

(ix) a Companion Loan Rating Agency has (A) qualified, downgraded or withdrawn its rating or ratings of one or more classes of Companion Loan Securities, or (B) placed one or more classes of Companion Loan Securities on “watch status” in contemplation of rating downgrade or withdrawal and, in the case of either of clauses (A) or (B), citing servicing concerns with the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as the sole or material factor in such rating action (and such qualification, downgrade, withdrawal or “watch status” placement has not been withdrawn by such Companion Loan Rating Agency within sixty (60) days of such event); and

(x) so long as any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any primary servicer, Sub-Servicer or Servicing Function Participant (such entity, the “Sub-Servicing Entity”) retained by the Servicer or Special Servicer, shall fail to deliver the items required to be delivered by this Agreement to enable such Other Securitization Trust to comply with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act within the time frame set forth for delivery in Article 12 (including any applicable grace periods) (any Sub-Servicing Entity that defaults in accordance with this Section 7.1(a)(x) shall be terminated at the direction of the Depositor).

(b) Upon the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, unless such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event has been cured or waived, the Trustee shall (i) provide written notice to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator shall post notice of the same upon its receipt thereof on the Certificate Administrator’s Website; (ii) provide written notice to the Rating Agencies, subject to Section 10.16; (iii) provide notice to the Companion Loan Holders and (iv) provide notice thereof to all Certificateholders by mail to the addresses set forth on the Certificate Register. For avoidance of doubt, (i) the occurrence of a Servicer

-149-

Termination Event with respect to the Servicer shall not cause there to have occurred a Special Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer unless the relevant event also constitutes a Special Servicer Termination Event and (ii) the occurrence of a Special Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer shall not cause there to have occurred a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Servicer unless the relevant event also constitutes a Servicer Termination Event.

(c) If a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either (i) the Trustee may, or (ii) upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates having at least 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of the Appraisal Reduction Amount to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the Certificates) of the Certificates, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination, and in and to the Whole Loan and the proceeds thereof by notice in writing to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. Upon any termination of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and appointment of a successor to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator shall post to the Certificate Administrator’s Website such written notice thereof to the Depositor and the Certificateholders and, comply with giving notice to the Rating Agencies pursuant to Section 10.17. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if a Special Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer affects a Companion Loan, any holder thereof or the rating on a class of Companion Loan securities, then the related affected Companion Loan Holder will be able to require termination of the Special Servicer (subject to the right of the Controlling Class Representative to appoint a successor Special Servicer so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing) and (b) if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Servicer affects a Companion Loan, the related Companion Loan Holder or the rating on a class of the related Companion Loan securities, and if the Servicer is not otherwise terminated, then the Servicer may not be terminated by or at the direction of the related Companion Loan Holder, but upon the written direction of the related Companion Loan Holder, the Servicer shall be required to appoint a sub-servicer that will be responsible for servicing the related Whole Loan.

(d) In the event that the Servicer or Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.1, the Trustee (the “Terminating Party”) shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be (the “Terminated Party”) (with a copy to the Loan Borrowers), terminate all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and in and to the Whole Loan and the proceeds thereof, other than any rights the Terminated Party may have hereunder as a Certificateholder and any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement with respect to periods prior to the date of such termination and the right to the benefits of Section 6.3 notwithstanding any such termination). On or after the receipt by the Terminated Party of such written notice, subject to the foregoing, all of its authority and power under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (except that the Terminated Party shall retain its rights as a Certificateholder in the event and to the extent that it is a Certificateholder) or the Trust Loan or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Terminating Party pursuant to and under this Section 7.1 and, without limitation, the Terminating Party is

-150-

hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Terminated Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Trust Loan and related documents, or otherwise. The Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, each agrees that, in the event it is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.1, or resigns under Section 6.6(b), to promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice) provide, at its own expense, the Terminating Party (which term shall include for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.1(d), the Trustee (or a successor Servicer or Special Servicer) in connection with a resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under Section 6.6(b)) with all documents and records requested by the Terminating Party to enable the Terminating Party to assume its functions hereunder, and to cooperate with the Terminating Party and the successor to its responsibilities hereunder in effecting the termination of its responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or the Terminating Party, as applicable, for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Terminated Party (which term shall include, for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.1(d), the resigning party in connection with a resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under Section 6.6(b)) to the Collection Account, any Foreclosed Property Account or shall thereafter be received with respect to the Whole Loan, and shall promptly provide the Terminating Party or such successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (which may include the Trustee), all documents and records reasonably requested by it, such documents and records to be provided in such form as the Terminating Party or such successor Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall reasonably request (including electromagnetic form), to enable it to assume the function of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder. All reasonable costs and expenses of the Terminating Party or the successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, incurred in connection with transferring the Mortgage File to the Terminating Party or to the successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be paid by the Terminated Party upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. If the Terminated Party has not reimbursed the Terminating Party or such successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, for such expenses within 90 days after the presentation of reasonable documentation, such expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust pursuant to Section 3.4(c); provided that the Terminated Party shall not thereby be relieved of its liability for such expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Special Servicer is terminated without cause pursuant to Section 6.4, all costs and expenses incurred or payable by the terminated Special Servicer under this Section 7.1 shall be paid by the Trust Fund.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Trustee of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event of which the Depositor becomes aware. In no event shall the Trustee be deemed to have knowledge of or be aware of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice thereof or has actual knowledge thereof.

Section 7.2. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. (a) On and after the time the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, receives a notice of termination

-151-

pursuant to Section 7.1, or resigns pursuant to Section 6.4(b), the Terminating Party (which term shall include, for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.2, the Trustee (or a successor Servicer or Special Servicer including a successor appointed under Section 6.4(a)) in connection with a resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under Section 6.6(b)) shall, unless prohibited by law, be the successor to the Terminated Party (which term shall include, for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.2, the resigning party in connection with a resignation of the Servicer of the Special Servicer under Section 6.6(b)) in all respects under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and, except as provided herein, shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, limitations on liability and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Terminated Party by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that (i) neither the Trustee nor the Terminating Party (or any successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be) shall have responsibilities, duties, liabilities or obligations with respect to any act or omission of the Terminated Party and (ii) any failure to perform, or delay in performing, such duties or responsibilities caused by the Terminated Party’s failure to provide, or delay in providing, records, tapes, disks, information or monies or failure to cooperate as required by this Agreement shall not be considered a default by the Terminating Party or such successor hereunder. The Trustee, as successor Servicer, and any other successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be indemnified to the full extent provided to the Trustee under this Agreement. The appointment of a successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not affect any liability of the Terminated Party that may have arisen prior to its termination as such. The Terminating Party shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of the Terminated Party herein or in any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the Terminated Party or for any losses incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment by the Terminated Party nor shall the Terminating Party or any successor Servicer or Special Servicer be required to purchase the Whole Loan hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Terminating Party as successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to all compensation with respect to the Whole Loan to which the Terminated Party would have been entitled that accrues after the date of the Terminating Party’s succession to which the Terminated Party would have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder and, in the case of a successor Special Servicer, the Special Servicing Fee. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, or if the Holders of Certificates having greater than 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights of all then outstanding Certificates so request in writing to the Trustee, or the Trustee is not approved by the Rating Agencies as a Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation, or if the Rating Agencies do not provide written confirmation that the succession of the Trustee as Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, will not cause a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then current ratings of the Certificates, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established loan servicing institution reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee the appointment for which a Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained, as the successor to the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder; provided that for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred or is continuing the Controlling Class Representative shall have the right to approve any such successor Special Servicer. No appointment of a successor to a Terminated Party hereunder shall be effective until the assumption by such successor of all the Terminated Party’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities

-152-

hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to a Terminated Party hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in the applicable capacity as herein above provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Whole Loan as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted to the Terminated Party hereunder, except that if no successor to the Terminated Party can be obtained to perform the obligations of such Terminated Party hereunder, additional amounts shall be paid to such successor and such amounts in excess of that permitted to the Terminated Party shall be paid pursuant to Section 3.4(c); provided, further; that, for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall consult with the Controlling Class Representative (on a non-binding basis) prior to the appointment of a successor to the Terminated Party at such amounts in excess of that permitted the Terminated Party. The Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Servicer (as applicable), the Special Servicer (as applicable) and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.1(c), Section 7.1(d) or Section 7.2(a), if a Servicer receives a notice of termination solely due to a Servicer Termination Event under Sections 7.1(vii) or (viii) and the terminated Servicer provides the Trustee with the appropriate “request for proposal” materials within five (5) Business Days after such termination, then such Servicer shall continue to serve as Servicer, and the Trustee shall promptly thereafter (using such “request for proposal” materials provided by the terminated Servicer) solicit good faith bids for the rights to master service the Whole Loan from at least three (3) Persons qualified to act as successor Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 7.2 for which the Trustee has received Rating Agency Confirmation (any such Person so qualified, a “Qualified Bidder”) or, if three (3) Qualified Bidders cannot be located, then from as many Persons as are Qualified Bidders; provided, however, that (i) the terminated Servicer shall supply the Trustee with the names of Persons who are Qualified Bidders (subject to receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation) from whom to solicit such bids; and (ii) the Trustee shall not be responsible if less than three (3) or no Qualified Bidders submit bids for the right to master service the Whole Loan under this Agreement. The bid proposal shall require any Successful Bidder (as defined below), as a condition of such bid, to enter into this Agreement as successor Servicer with respect to the Whole Loan, and to agree to be bound by the terms hereof, within forty-five (45) days after the receipt by the terminated Servicer of a notice of termination. The Trustee shall solicit bids (i) on the basis of such successor Servicer entering into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the terminated Servicer to service the Whole Loan at a sub-servicing fee rate per annum equal to 0.00125% (each, a “Servicing-Retained Bid”) and (ii) on the basis of having no obligation to enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the terminated Servicer (each, a “Servicing-Released Bid”). The Trustee shall select the Qualified Bidder with the highest cash Servicing-Retained Bid (or, if none, the highest cash Servicing Released Bid) (the “Successful Bidder”) to act as successor Servicer hereunder. The Trustee shall request the Successful Bidder to enter into this Agreement as successor Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof (and, if the successful bid was a Servicing-Retained Bid, to enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the terminated Servicer as contemplated above), no later than forty-five (45) days after the termination of the terminated Servicer. Upon the assignment and acceptance of the servicing rights hereunder to and by the Successful Bidder, the Trustee shall remit or cause to be remitted to the terminated Servicer the

-153-

amount of such cash bid received from the Successful Bidder (net of reasonable “out of pocket” expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with obtaining such bid and transferring servicing).

Section 7.3. Notification to Certificateholders, the Depositor and the Rating Agencies. (a) Upon any termination of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 7.1 or appointment of a successor to the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Certificate Administrator shall, as soon as practicable, give written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to the Depositor and, subject to Section 10.17, the Rating Agencies.

(b) Within 30 days after the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event of which a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge, the Certificate Administrator shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates and to the Depositor and, subject to Section 10.17, the Rating Agencies notice of such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as the case may be, unless such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event or shall have been cured or waived.

Section 7.4. Other Remedies of Trustee. During the continuance of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as the case may be, or so long as such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in Section 7.1, shall have the right, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filing of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). In such event, the legal fees, expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor pursuant to Section 3.4(c) from the Collection Account. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event.

Section 7.5. Waiver of Past Servicer Termination Events and Special Servicer Termination Events. The Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the aggregate Voting Rights of all then outstanding Certificates and each affected Companion Loan Holder may, on behalf of all Certificateholders and upon adequate indemnification of the Trustee by the requesting Holders of Certificates, waive any default by the Servicer or the Special Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits (including Monthly Payment Advances) to or payments from the Collection Account, the Distribution Account or any Foreclosed Property Account or in remitting payments as received, in each case in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such

-154-

waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and the related Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right related thereto.

Section 7.6. Trustee as Maker of Advances. In the event that the Servicer fails to fulfill its obligations hereunder to make any Advances, the Trustee shall perform such obligations (w) within five Business Days (or such shorter period (but not less than one Business Day) as may be required, if applicable, to avoid any lapse in insurance coverage required under the Loan Documents or this Agreement with respect to the Properties or to avoid any foreclosure or similar action with respect to the Properties by reason of failure to pay real estate taxes, assessments or governmental charges) of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee obtaining knowledge of such failure by the Servicer or the Special Servicer with respect to Property Protection Advances and Administrative Advances and (x) by 12:00 noon New York time on the related Distribution Date with respect to Monthly Payment Advances. With respect to any such Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Servicer’s and/or the Special Servicer’s rights, as applicable, with respect to Advances hereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of reimbursement and interest on each Advance at the Advance Rate, and rights to determine that a proposed Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance (without regard to any impairment of any such rights of reimbursement caused by such Servicer’s and/or the Special Servicer’s default in its obligations hereunder and further subject to the Trustee’s standard of good faith judgment); provided, however, that if Advances made by the Trustee, the Servicer and/or the Special Servicer shall at any time be outstanding, or any interest on any Advance shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay such Advances and the interest thereon hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances outstanding to the Trustee until such Advances shall have been repaid in full, together with all interest accrued thereon, prior to reimbursement of the Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for such Advances and interest accrued thereon. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice given by the Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to a Nonrecoverable Advance hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the master servicer and trustee with respect to each Other Securitization Trust of the amount of any Monthly Payment Advance made by it pursuant to this Section 7.6 within two (2) Business Days of making such advance.

THE TRUSTEE AND CERTIFICATE ADMINISTRATOR

Section 8.1. Duties of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. (a) Each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, and with respect to the Trustee prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as the case may be, and after the curing or waiver of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event that may have occurred, undertakes with respect to the Trust Fund to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. Neither the Depositor nor the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be obligated to monitor or supervise the performance by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator of its duties hereunder. In case a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event has occurred (which has not

-155-

been cured or waived), the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.3, shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and shall use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent institution would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such institution’s own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator set forth in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty. The Trustee (or the Servicer or the Special Servicer on its behalf) shall have the power to exercise all the rights of a holder of the Whole Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (or, if a Companion Loan Holder is an Other Securitization Trust, the related Other Depositor or Other Trustee), subject to the terms of the Loan Documents and the Co-Lender Agreement.

(b) Subject to Sections 8.2(a) and 8.3, each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator that are specifically required to be furnished to it pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine, or cause to be examined, such instruments to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement to the extent specifically set forth herein. If any such instrument is found on its face not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall make a request to the Depositor to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s or the Certificate Administrator’s reasonable satisfaction, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders. Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the Depositor, the Servicer, or the Special Servicer and accepted by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, in good faith, pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Subject to Section 8.3, no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, its own willful misconduct or bad faith, provided, however, that:

(i) no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and/or the Certificate Administrator (including those provided pursuant to Section 10.1) and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement which it reasonably believes in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly executed by the proper authorities respecting any matters arising hereunder;

(ii) the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator such Responsible Officer, as applicable, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

-156-

(iii) the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with this Agreement or at the direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of the Certificates, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, under this Agreement;

(iv) the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall not be charged with knowledge of any failure by the Servicer or the Special Servicer to comply with any of their respective obligations referred to in Section 7.1 or any other act or circumstance upon the occurrence of which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, may be required to take action unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, obtains actual knowledge of such failure, act or circumstance or the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, receives written notice of such failure from the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Loan Borrowers or Holders of the Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of the Certificates.

(v) subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and without limiting the generality of Sections 8.1 and 8.2, the Trustee shall have no duty except in the capacity as a successor Servicer or successor Special Servicer (A) to see to any recording, filing or depositing of this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any re-recording, refiling or redepositing thereof (except as set forth in Section 2.1(b)), (B) to see to any insurance, and (C) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates of the Servicer or the Special Servicer delivered to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Agreement reasonably believed by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; and

(vi) for all purposes under this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be required to take any action with respect to, and neither the Certificate Administrator or Trustee shall be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Loan Event of Default, Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, has actual knowledge thereof or shall have received written notice thereof. In the absence of receipt of such notice and such actual knowledge otherwise obtained, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may conclusively assume that there is no Loan Event of Default, Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event.

(d) None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator to (i) expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder if there are reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, or (ii) perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any

-157-

of the obligations of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under this Agreement, except with respect to the Trustee, during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible or have liability in connection with the duties assumed by the Authenticating Agent, the Custodian, the 17g-5 Information Provider and the Certificate Registrar hereunder, unless the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator is acting in any such capacity hereunder; provided, further, that in any such capacity the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall have all of the rights, protections and indemnities provided to it as Trustee and the Certificate Administrator hereunder, as applicable.

In no event shall the Certificate Administrator or Trustee be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond the Certificate Administrator’s or Trustee’s control, including, but not limited to force majeure or acts of God.

(e) The Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee may at any time request from the Certificate Administrator written confirmation of whether a Control Termination Event occurred during the previous calendar year and the Certificate Administrator shall deliver such confirmation, based on information in its possession, to the requesting party within 15 days of such request.

Section 8.2. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.1:

(i) each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may request and rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer’s Certificate, auditor’s certificate or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

-158-

relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as the case may be (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs;

For so long as any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, promptly after receipt of such report from the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or any Servicing Function Participant, the Depositor and each Other Depositor may review the report and, if applicable, consult with the Servicer, the Special Servicer or, for so long as any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the

reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Certificate Administrator as to the nature of any defaults by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or any Servicing Function Participant with which it has entered into a servicing relationship with respect to the Trust Loan or any Companion Loan, as the case may be, in the fulfillment of any of the Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the applicable Servicing Function Participants’ obligations hereunder or under the applicable sub-servicing agreement.

Section 11.10. Significant Obligor. If an Other Depositor has notified the Servicer in writing that a Property is a “significant obligor” (within the meaning of Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB) with respect to an Other Securitization Trust that includes such Companion Loan and of the distribution date under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall, if the Servicer is in receipt of (i) the updated financial statements of such “significant obligor” for any calendar quarter (other than the fourth calendar quarter of any calendar year), beginning with the first calendar quarter following receipt of such notice from the Other Depositor, or (ii) the updated financial statements of such “significant obligor” for any calendar year, beginning with the calendar year following such notice from the Other Depositor, deliver to the Other Depositor and Other Trustee, on or prior to the day that occurs two (2) Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Quarterly Filing Deadline or seven (7) Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Yearly Filing Deadline, as applicable, (A) if such financial statement receipt occurs twelve (12) or more Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Quarterly Filing Deadline or seventeen (17) or more Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Yearly Filing Deadline, as applicable, such financial statements of such “significant obligor”, together with the net operating income of such “significant obligor” for the applicable period as calculated by the Servicer in accordance with CREFC^® guidelines or (B) if such financial statement receipt occurs less than twelve (12) Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Quarterly Filing Deadline or less than seventeen (17) Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Yearly Filing Deadline, as applicable, such financial statements of such “significant obligor”, together with the net operating income of such “significant obligor” for the applicable period as reported by the related Borrower in such financial statement.

If the Servicer does not receive financial information satisfactory to comply with Item 6 of Form 10-D or Item 1112(b)(1) of Form 10-K, as the case may be, of such “significant obligor” within ten Business Days after the date such financial information is required to be delivered under the Loan Documents, the Servicer shall notify the Other Depositor with respect to such Other Securitization Trust that includes the related Companion Loan (and shall cause each applicable sub-servicing agreement to require any related Sub-Servicer to notify such Other Depositor) that it has not received them. The Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard (taking into account, in addition, the ongoing reporting obligations of such Other Depositor under the Exchange Act) to obtain the periodic financial statements of the Loan Borrowers under the Loan Documents.

The Servicer shall (and shall cause each applicable sub-servicing agreement to require any related Sub-Servicer to) retain written evidence of each instance in which it (or a Sub-Servicer) attempts to contact the Loan Borrowers to obtain the required financial information and is unsuccessful and, within five (5) Business Days prior to the date in which a Form 10-D or Form 10-K, as applicable, is required to be filed with respect to the Other

-200-

Securitization Trust, shall forward an Officer’s Certificate evidencing its attempts to obtain this information to the Other Exchange Act Reporting Party and Other Depositor related to such Other Securitization Trust. This Officer’s Certificate should be addressed to the certificate administrator at its corporate trust office, as specified in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Section 11.11. Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Backup Certification. For so long as any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide (and with respect to any other Servicing Function Participant of such party, shall cause such Servicing Function Participant to provide) to the Person who signs the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification with respect to such Other Securitization Trust (the “Certifying Person”) no later than March 1st of the year following the year to which the Form 10-K of such Other Securitization Trust relates or, if March 1st is not a Business Day, on the immediately following Business Day, a certification in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit W, on which the Certifying Person, the entity for which the Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity’s officers, directors and Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Person, “Certification Parties”) can reasonably rely. In the event any Reporting Servicer is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable sub-servicing agreement or primary servicing agreement, as the case may be, such Reporting Servicer shall provide a certification to the Certifying Person pursuant to this Section 11.11 with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or the applicable sub-servicing or primary servicing agreement, as the case may be.

Section 11.12. Indemnification. Each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, each Other Depositor and any employee, director or officer of the Depositor or any Other Depositor from and against any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses incurred by such indemnified party arising out of (i) an actual breach by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, of its obligations under this Article 11 or (ii) negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, in the performance of such obligations.

The Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator shall cause each Servicing Function Participant of such party that is not a Sub-Servicer set forth on Exhibit V (and with respect to any Servicing Function Participant of such party that is a Sub-Servicer set forth on Exhibit V, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Servicing Function Participant) to indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, each Other Depositor and any employee, director or officer of the Depositor or any Other Depositor from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments and any other costs, fees and expenses incurred by such indemnified party arising out of (i) a breach of its obligations to provide any of the annual compliance statements or annual servicing criteria compliance reports or attestation reports pursuant to the applicable sub-servicing agreement or (ii) negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct its part in the performance of such obligations or (iii) any failure by a Servicing

-201-

Party (as defined in Section 11.2(b)) to identify a Servicing Function Participant pursuant to Section 11.2(c).

If the indemnification provided for in, or contemplated by, either of the prior two paragraphs is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor, any Other Depositor or any employee, director or officer of the Depositor or any Other Depositor, then the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Additional Servicer or other Servicing Function Participant (the “Performing Party”) shall contribute to the amount paid or payable to the indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party on the one hand and the Performing Party on the other in connection with a breach of the Performing Party’s obligations pursuant to this Article 11 (or breach of its obligations under the applicable sub-servicing agreement to provide any of the annual compliance statements or annual servicing criteria compliance reports or attestation reports) or the Performing party’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

Section 11.13. Amendments. This Article 11 may be amended by the parties hereto pursuant to Section 10.1 of this Agreement for purposes of complying with Regulation AB, the Act or the Exchange Act and/or to conform to standards developed within the commercial mortgage-backed securities market and the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act without any Opinions of Counsel, Officer’s Certificates, Rating Agency Confirmations or the consent of any Certificateholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement.

Section 11.14. Termination of the Certificate Administrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Depositor or any Other Depositor may terminate the Certificate Administrator upon five Business Days’ notice if the Certificate Administrator fails to comply with any of its obligations under this Article 11; provided that such termination shall not be effective until a successor Certificate Administrator shall have accepted the appointment.

Section 11.15. Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements. For so long as any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, each of the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, as applicable, shall (i) cause each Sub-Servicing Agreement to which it is a party to entitle the Depositor or any Other Depositor to terminate such agreement (without compensation, termination fee or the consent of any other Person) at any time following any failure of the applicable Sub-Servicer to any deliver any Exchange Act reporting items that such Sub-Servicer is required to deliver under Regulation AB or as otherwise contemplated by this Article 11 and (ii) promptly notify the Depositor and any Other Depositor following any failure of the applicable Sub-Servicer to deliver any Exchange

-202-

Act reporting items that such Sub-Servicer is required to deliver under Regulation AB or as otherwise contemplated by this Article 11. The Depositor and any Other Depositor is hereby authorized to exercise the rights described in clause (i) of the preceding sentence in its sole discretion. The rights of the Depositor and any Other Depositor to terminate a Sub-Servicing Agreement as aforesaid shall not limit any right the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, may have to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement.

Section 11.16. Notification Requirements and Deliveries in Connection with Securitization of a Companion Loan. (a) Any other provision of this Article 11 to the contrary notwithstanding, including, without limitation, any deadlines for delivery set forth in this Article 11, in connection with the requirements contained in this Article 11 that provide for the delivery of information and other items to, and the cooperation with, the Other Depositor and Other Exchange Act Reporting Party of any Other Securitization Trust that includes a Companion Loan, no party hereunder shall be obligated to provide any such items to or cooperate with such Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party (i) until the Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party of such Other Securitization Trust has provided each party hereto with not less than 30 days written notice (which shall only be required to be delivered once), and each such party shall be entitled to rely on such notice, setting forth the contact information for such Person(s) and, except as regards the deliveries and cooperation contemplated by Section 11.7, Section 11.8 and Section 11.9 of this Agreement, stating that such Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the information and other items not otherwise specified in this Agreement that are requested to be delivered; provided that if Exchange Act reporting is being requested, such Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party is only required to provide a single written notice to such effect. Any reasonable cost and expense of the Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator in cooperating with such Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party of such Other Securitization Trust (above and beyond their expressed duties hereunder) shall be the responsibility of such Other Depositor or Other Securitization Trust. The parties hereto shall have the right to confirm in good faith with the Other Depositor of such Other Securitization Trust as to whether applicable law requires the delivery of the items identified in this Article 11 to such Other Depositor and Other Exchange Act Reporting Party of such Other Securitization Trust prior to providing any of the reports or other information required to be delivered under this Article 11 in connection therewith and (i) upon such confirmation, the parties shall comply with the deadlines for delivery set forth in this Article 11 with respect to such Other Securitization Trust or (ii) in the absence of such confirmation, the parties shall not be required to deliver such items; provided that no such confirmation will be required in connection with any delivery of the items contemplated by Section 11.7, Section 11.8 and Section 11.9 of this Agreement. Such confirmation shall be deemed given if the Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party for the Other Securitization Trust provides a written statement to the effect that the Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the appropriate party hereto receives such written statement. The parties hereunder shall also have the right to require that such Other Depositor provide them with the contact details of such Other Depositor, Other Exchange Act Reporting Party and any other parties to the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to such Other Securitization Trust.

-203-

(b) Each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall, upon reasonable prior written request given in accordance with the terms of Section 11.16(a) above, and subject to a right of the Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as the case may be, to review and approve such disclosure materials, permit the Companion Loan Holder to use such party’s description contained in the Offering Circular (updated as appropriate by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, at the reasonable cost of the Other Depositor) for inclusion in the disclosure materials relating to any securitization of a Companion Loan.

(c) The Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, upon reasonable prior written request given in accordance with the terms of Section 11.16(a) above, shall each timely provide (to the extent the reasonable cost thereof is paid or caused to be paid by the requesting party) to the Other Depositor and any underwriters with respect to any securitization transaction that includes a Companion Loan such opinion(s) of counsel, certifications and/or indemnification agreement(s) with respect to the updated description referred in Section 11.16(b) with respect to such party, substantially identical to those, if any, delivered by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, or their respective counsel, in connection with the information concerning such party in the Offering Circular and/or any other disclosure materials relating to this Trust (updated as deemed appropriate by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, or their respective legal counsel, as the case may be, and sufficient to comply with Regulation AB). None of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall be obligated to deliver any such item with respect to the securitization of a Companion Loan if it did not deliver a corresponding item with respect to this Trust.

Article 12

REMIC ADMINISTRATION

Section 12.1. REMIC Administration. (a) The parties intend that each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall constitute, and that the affairs of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall be conducted so as to qualify it as, a REMIC, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention.

(b) The Certificate Administrator shall make or cause to be made an election on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC to treat the segregated pool of assets constituting such REMIC as a REMIC under the Code. Each such election shall be made on IRS Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are issued.

(c) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The “latest possible maturity date” of the Regular Certificates and the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests for the purposes of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code is the date that is the Rated Final Distribution Date.

-204-

(d) The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely produced to the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign) and file or cause to be filed with the IRS, on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, an application for a taxpayer identification number for such REMIC on IRS Form SS-4 or obtain such number by other permissible means. Within thirty days of the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the IRS, on IRS Form 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title and address of the Persons that Holders of the Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto (and the Certificate Administrator shall act as the representative of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC for this purpose), together with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and shall update such information at the time or times and in the manner required by the Code (and the Depositor agrees within ten (10) Business Days of the Closing Date to provide any information reasonably requested by the Servicer or the Certificate Administrator and necessary to make such filing). The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the preparation of the related IRS Form W-9, if such form is requested. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the information contained therein, and is hereby directed to execute such IRS Form W-9; provided, however, the Certificate Administrator shall also be directed to execute such IRS Form W-9 (in lieu of the Trustee) if permitted by IRS regulations.

(e) The Certificate Administrator shall pay without any right of reimbursement the ordinary and usual expenses in connection with the preparation, filing and mailing of tax information reports and returns that are incurred by it in the ordinary course of its business, but extraordinary or unusual expenses, costs or liabilities incurred in connection with its tax-related duties under this Agreement, including without limitation any expenses, costs or liabilities associated with audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC that involve the IRS or state tax authorities, shall be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.

(f) The Certificate Administrator shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, timely furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign), and the Certificate Administrator shall file or cause to be filed all federal, state and local income or franchise or other tax and information returns for each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as the direct representative for such REMIC. Except as provided in Section 12.1(e), the expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Certificate Administrator. The Depositor shall provide on a timely basis to the Certificate Administrator or its designee such information with respect to each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as is in its possession, and is reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator to enable it to perform its obligations under this subsection, and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely on such information in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(g) The Certificate Administrator shall perform on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance issued by the IRS or any state or local taxing authority. Among its other duties, the Certificate Administrator shall provide (i) to the IRS or other Persons (including, but not limited to, the transferor of a Class R Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or to an agent

-205-

that has acquired a Class R Certificate on behalf of a Disqualified Organization) such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Class R Certificate to any Disqualified Organization and (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or REMIC Provisions. The Depositor shall provide on a timely basis (and in no event later than 30 days after the Certificate Administrator’s request) to the Certificate Administrator or its designee such information with respect to each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as is in its possession and is reasonably requested in writing by the Certificate Administrator to enable it to perform its obligations under this subsection.

(h) The Holder of the Class R Certificates holding the largest Percentage Interest therein shall be the Tax Matters Person and “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code, to the extent such provision is applicable to the Trust REMICs) of the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d). The duties of the Tax Matters Person and “partnership representative” for the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC are hereby delegated to the Certificate Administrator as agent for the related Tax Matters Person and “partnership representative,” and the Class R Certificateholders, by acceptance of the Class R Certificates, agree, on behalf of themselves and all successor holders of such Class R Certificates, to such delegation to the Certificate Administrator as its agent and attorney in fact.

(i) The Certificate Administrator’s authority under this Agreement includes the authority to make, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to make, any elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Section 6221 of the Code (or successor provisions) to either Trust REMIC and (ii) to avoid payment by either Trust REMIC under Section 6225 of the Code (or successor provisions) of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any Holder of a Class R Certificate, past or present. Each Holder of Class R Certificate agrees, by acquiring such Certificate, to any such elections.

(j) The Certificate Administrator, the Holders of the Class R Certificates, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall perform their obligations under this Agreement and the REMIC Provisions in a manner consistent with the status of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC.

(k) The Certificate Administrator, any Holder of the Class R Certificates, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not take any action or cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to take any action, within their respective control and the scope of their specific respective duties under this Agreement that, under the REMIC Provisions, could reasonably be expected to (i) cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (ii) unless permitted under Section 12.2(a), result in the imposition of a tax upon either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on prohibited contributions as defined in Section 860G(d)) of the Code (any such result in clause (i) or (ii), an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless (A) the Certificate Administrator and the Servicer have received a Nondisqualification Opinion (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or of the Trust Fund if taken for the benefit of the Certificateholders) with respect to

-206-

such action or (B) the Certificate Administrator and the Servicer have received an opinion (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or of the Trust Fund if taken for the benefit of the Certificateholders) to the effect that such action will not cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC and that no tax will actually be imposed.

(l) Any and all federal, state and local taxes imposed on the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC or its assets or transactions, including, without limitation, “prohibited transaction” taxes as defined in Section 860F of the Code, and any tax on contributions imposed by Section 860G(d) of the Code, shall be paid from the Collection Account; provided that the Servicer, upon two (2) days prior written notice, shall remit from the Collection Account to the Certificate Administrator the amount of any such tax that the Certificate Administrator notifies the Servicer is due; provided, further, that if such taxes shall have been imposed on account of the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of any party hereto, or in connection with the breach of any representation or warranty made by any party hereto in this Agreement, then such taxes shall be paid by such party.

(m) The Certificate Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Loan Documents (but subject to Section 1.3), all amounts collected on the Trust Loan shall, for federal income tax purposes, be allocated first to interest due and payable on the Trust Loan (including interest on overdue interest) other than Default Interest. The books and records must be sufficient concerning the nature and amount of the investments of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC to show that such REMIC has complied with the REMIC Provisions.

(n) None of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Servicer or the Special Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services.

(o) In order to enable the Certificate Administrator to perform its duties as set forth herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Certificate Administrator within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Certificate Administrator reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes on the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the yield, issue prices, pricing prepayment assumption and projected cash flows of the Regular Certificates and the Class R Certificates, as applicable, and the projected cash flows on the Trust Loan. Thereafter, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide to the Certificate Administrator, promptly upon request therefor, any such additional information or data that the Certificate Administrator may, from time to time, reasonably request in order to enable the Certificate Administrator to perform its duties as set forth herein. The Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to use any and all such information or data provided by the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Special Servicer in the preparation of all federal, state or local income, franchise or other tax and information returns and reports for each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC to Certificateholders as required herein. The Depositor hereby indemnifies the Certificate Administrator for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Certificate Administrator arising from any errors or miscalculations of the

-207-

Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Section 12.1 that result from any failure of the Depositor to provide or to cause to be provided, accurate information or data to the Certificate Administrator (but not resulting from the methodology employed by the Certificate Administrator) on a timely basis and such indemnifications shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Certificate Administrator.

The Certificate Administrator agrees that all such information or data so obtained by it shall be regarded as confidential information and agrees that it shall use its best reasonable efforts to retain in confidence, and shall ensure that its officers, employees and representatives retain in confidence, and shall not disclose, without the prior written consent of the Depositor, any or all of such information or data, or make any use whatsoever (other than for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement) of any such information or data without the prior written consent of the Depositor, unless such information is generally available to the public (other than as a result of a breach of this Section) or is required by law or applicable regulations to be disclosed.

Section 12.2. Foreclosed Properties. (a) The parties hereto acknowledge and understand that if the Trust Fund were to acquire any Property as a Foreclosed Property and were to own and operate that Property in a manner consistent with the manner in which that Property is currently owned and operated by the Loan Borrowers, through a Successor Manager, some portion or all of the income derived in the Lower-Tier REMIC from such Foreclosed Property may be considered “net income from foreclosure property” for purposes of Section 860G(c) of the Code and subject to tax at normal corporate income tax rates.

In determining whether to acquire and hold any Foreclosed Property, the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall take these circumstances into account and shall only acquire such Foreclosed Property if it determines, in its reasonable judgment (after, consultation with counsel, at the expense of the Trust Fund), that either (i) there is a commercially feasible alternative method of administering such Foreclosed Property that would not result in such tax, e.g., a net lease that results in Rents from Real Property or (ii) the likely recovery with respect to operating such Foreclosed Property on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders, after taking into account any such taxes that might be imposed on either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC, will exceed the likely recovery to the Trust Fund if the Trust Fund were to net lease such Foreclosed Property or were not to acquire and hold such Foreclosed Property. If the Trust Fund acquires any Foreclosed Property, the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee, if the Manager would not be considered an Independent Contractor, shall either renegotiate the applicable Management Agreement or replace the Manager with a Successor Manager (as appropriate and to the extent permitted under such Management Agreement) so that the Foreclosed Property would be considered to be operated by an Independent Contractor. If, after making the foregoing reasonable efforts, the Special Servicer determines that it is in the best interests of Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders on a net after-tax basis to operate the Foreclosed Property in a manner such that the Lower-Tier REMIC or Upper-Tier REMIC shall receive, based upon an Opinion of Counsel, “net income from foreclosure property” under the REMIC Provisions, the Special Servicer shall maintain or cause to be maintained such records of income and expense as to enable such amounts to be computed accurately, and shall pay or retain or cause to be paid or

-208-

retained from Foreclosure Proceeds such amounts as are necessary to pay such tax or, to the extent such amounts are insufficient, from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.4.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not, to the extent within its power:

(i) permit the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to a Foreclosed Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii) permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii) authorize or permit any construction on a Foreclosed Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvements was completed before default on the Trust Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

(iv) Directly Operate, other than through an Independent Contractor, or allow any other Person to Directly Operate, other than through an Independent Contractor, a Foreclosed Property on any date more than ninety (90) days after its acquisition date.

(b) The Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall make reasonable efforts to sell any Foreclosed Property for its fair market value in accordance with Section 3.15. In any event, however, the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall dispose of any Foreclosed Property as soon as is practicable but in no event later than the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Acquisition Date occurs unless the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, has received (or has not been denied) an extension of time (an “Extension”) by the IRS to sell such Foreclosed Property or an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such Foreclosed Property for an additional specified period will neither result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of the Trust Fund as defined in Section 860F of the Code, nor cause the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding, in which event such period shall be extended by such additional specified period, with the expenses of obtaining any such extension of time being an expense of the Trust Fund. If the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, has received (or has not been denied) such Extension, then the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall continue to attempt to sell such Foreclosed Property for its fair market value for such longer period as such Extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee, has not received such an Extension and the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, is unable to sell such Foreclosed Property, within the foregoing period or if the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, has received such an Extension, and the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, is unable to sell such Foreclosed Property within the Extended Period, the Special Servicer shall, before the end of the above-referenced period or the Extended Period, as the case may be, auction such Foreclosed

-209-

Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Special Servicer) in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.

(c) Within thirty (30) days of the sale of a Foreclosed Property, the Special Servicer shall provide to each of the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee a statement of accounting for the Foreclosed Property, including, without limitation, (i) the date the related Property was acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the date of disposition of such Foreclosed Property, (iii) the gross sale price and related selling and other expenses, (iv) accrued interest calculated from the date of acquisition to the disposition date, and (v) such other information as the Certificate Administrator and/or Trustee may reasonably request.

Section 12.3. Prohibited Transactions and Activities. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall not permit the sale or disposition of the Trust Loan at a time when the Trust Loan is not the subject of a breach of a representation or is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable (except in a disposition pursuant to (i) the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Lower-Tier REMIC or (ii) the termination of the Lower-Tier REMIC in a “qualified liquidation” as defined in Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code), nor acquire any assets for either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC (other than Foreclosed Property), nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or Distribution Account for gain, nor receive any amount representing a fee or other compensation for services, nor accept any contributions to either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC (other than a cash contribution during the three-month period beginning on the Startup Day), unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Person requesting it to take such action) to the effect that such disposition, acquisition, substitution or acceptance will not (a) adversely affect the status of either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC, or of the Certificates as representing regular interests therein, (b) affect the distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC (except pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement), or (d) cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” or “prohibited contributions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

Section 12.4. Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC Status.

If either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs state or local taxes, or a tax as a result of a prohibited transaction or contribution subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions due to the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligent performance by the Certificate Administrator of its duties and obligations specifically set forth herein, or by reason of the Certificate Administrator’s negligent disregard of its obligations and duties thereunder, the Certificate Administrator shall indemnify the Trust against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting therefrom; provided, however, that the Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holders of the Class R Certificates, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, or the Depositor, on which the Certificate Administrator has relied. The

foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of successor Holders of the Class R Certificates at law or in equity.

If either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs state or local taxes, or a tax as a result of a prohibited transaction or contribution subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions due to the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligent performance of the Servicer or the Special Servicer in the performance of its duties and obligations set forth herein, or by reason of the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s negligent disregard of its obligations and duties thereunder, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall indemnify the Trust Fund against any and all losses resulting therefrom; provided, however, that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be liable for any such losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Holders of the Class R Certificates nor for any such losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor or the Holders of the Class R Certificates on which the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has relied.

Exhibit A-1-4

Certificates, the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Trust and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Trust and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2016 (the “Trust and Servicing Agreement”), by and among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Servicer, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Special Servicer, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Pursuant to the terms of the Trust and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute, on the 4th Business Day after each Determination Date, commencing in April 2016 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of the month preceding the calendar month in which the applicable Distribution Date occurs, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest, any Yield Maintenance Default Premiums then distributable, if any, and any other amounts distributable to the Class A Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

All distributions will be made to the Persons entitled thereto by check mailed by first class mail to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that the Certificate Administrator has received appropriate wire transfer instructions, at least five Business Days prior to the related Distribution Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the location that is specified by the Certificate Administrator in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Trust Loan, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Trust and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Trust and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.

As provided in the Trust and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the

Exhibit A-1-5

Certificate Registrar shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Trust and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Trust and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or Companion Loan Holders, in certain circumstances specified in the Trust and Servicing Agreement. The Trust and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class adversely affected by such amendment evidencing, in each case, not less than 51% of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Trust and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Certificates, except that the amendment may not (1) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Trust Loan that are required to be distributed on any Certificate; (2) alter in any manner the liens on any Collateral securing payments of the Trust Loan; (3) alter the obligations of the Servicer or the Trustee to make an Advance or alter the Accepted Servicing Practices; (4) change the percentages of Voting Rights or Percentage Interests of Certificateholders that are required to consent to any action or inaction under the Trust and Servicing Agreement; (5) adversely affect the Controlling Class Representative without the consent of 100% of the Controlling Class Certificateholders; or (6) amend the Section 10.1 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment to the Trust and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes in any manner the obligations of the Loan Seller under the Loan Purchase Agreement without the consent of the Loan Seller, and the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator may, but will not be obligated to, enter into any amendment to the Trust and Servicing Agreement that it determines affects its rights, duties or immunities or creates any additional liability for the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator under the Trust and Servicing Agreement. In addition, no amendment may be made to the Trust and Servicing Agreement unless the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator have first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting the amendment, or at the Trust Fund’s expense if the Trustee is the requesting party) to the effect that the amendment is authorized or permitted under the Trust and Servicing Agreement and all conditions precedent have been met and that the amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Trustee or any other specified person in accordance with the amendment, will not result in the

Exhibit A-1-6

imposition of federal income tax on the Trust or cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code.

The Trust and Servicing Agreement provides that the respective obligations and responsibilities of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor and the Trustee created thereby with respect to the Certificates (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments to Certificateholders after the final Distribution Date and other than the indemnification rights and obligations of the parties thereto) shall terminate upon the last action required to be taken by the Certificate Administrator on the final Distribution Date pursuant to Article 9 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement following the later of (i) the final payment on the Certificates or (ii) the liquidation of the Whole Loan (including, without limitation, the sale of the Whole Loan pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement or the Trust and Servicing Agreement) or the liquidation or abandonment of the Properties and all other Collateral for the Whole Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall the Trust continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date of execution of the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

Unless the Certificate of Authentication on this Certificate has been executed by the Certificate Administrator or on its behalf by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Trust and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Trust Loan and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered pursuant to Section 5.3 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2016 (the “Trust and Servicing Agreement”), by and among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Servicer, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Special Servicer, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee, on behalf of the holders of Commercial Mortgage Pass Through Certificates, Series 2016-RENT (the “Certificates”) in connection with the transfer by [ ] (the “Seller”) to the undersigned (the “Purchaser”) of $_____ aggregate Certificate Balance of Class [ ] Certificates, in certificated fully registered form (such registered interest, the “Certificate”). Terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

In connection with such transfer, the undersigned hereby represents and warrants to you as follows:

[For Institutional Accredited Investors only] 1. The Purchaser is an institutional “accredited investor” (an “Institutional Accredited Investor”, i.e., an entity meeting the requirements of Rule 501 (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Certificate, and the Purchaser and any accounts for which the Purchaser is acting are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Certificate for its own account or for one or more accounts (each of which is an Institutional Accredited Investor)

Exhibit J-1-1

as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion. The Purchaser hereby undertakes to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with this transfer.

[For Qualified Institutional Buyers only] 1. The Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Purchaser is aware that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and the Purchaser has had the opportunity to obtain the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A.

2. The Purchaser’s intention is to acquire the Certificate (a) for investment for the Purchaser’s own account or (b) for reoffer, resale, pledge or other transfer to (i) “qualified institutional buyers” in transactions under Rule 144A, or (ii) Institutional Accredited Investors pursuant to any other exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject in the case of this clause (ii) to (a) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a letter substantially in the form hereof, (b) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (c) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of such other evidence acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and other applicable laws (including applicable state and foreign securities laws), and (d) a written undertaking to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with the proposed transfer. It understands that the Certificate (and any subsequent Non-Book Entry Certificate) has not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specified exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser’s investment intent (or intent to resell to only certain investors in certain exempted transactions) as expressed herein.

3. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Certificate (and any Certificate issued on transfer or exchange thereof) has not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction, and that the Certificate cannot be resold unless it is registered or qualified thereunder or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.

4. The Purchaser has reviewed the applicable Offering Circular dated March 10, 2016, relating to the Certificates (the “Offering Circular”) and the agreements and other materials referred to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Offering Circular.

5. The Purchaser hereby undertakes to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Trust and Servicing Agreement in its capacity as an owner of a Non-Book Entry Certificate or Certificates, as the case may be (each, a “Certificateholder”), in all respects as if it were a signatory thereto. This undertaking is made for the benefit of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and all Certificateholders present and future.

6. The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any portion of the Certificate, except in compliance with Section 5.3 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

7. Check one of the following:

Exhibit J-1-2

☐ The Purchaser is a “U.S. Person” and it has attached hereto an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W 9 (or successor form).

☐ The Purchaser is not a “U.S. Person” and under applicable law in effect on the date hereof, no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Certificate Registrar (or its agent) with respect to Distributions to be made on the Certificate(s). The Purchaser has attached hereto (i) a duly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor form), which identifies such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate(s) and states that such Purchaser is not a U.S. Person, (ii) two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (and all appropriate attachment, (iii) two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form), which identify such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate(s) and state that interest and original issue discount on the U.S. Securities is, or is expected to be, effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business or (iv) a duly executed copy of IRS Form W-8EXP. The Purchaser agrees to provide to the Certificate Registrar updated IRS Forms W-8BEN, IRS Forms W-8BEN-E, IRS Forms W-8IMY, IRS Forms W-8ECI or IRS Forms W-8EXP, as the case may be, any applicable successor IRS forms, or such other certifications as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably request, on or before the date that any such IRS form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS form of certification furnished by it to the Certificate Registrar.

For purposes of this paragraph 7, “U.S. Person” means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, partnership (except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations), or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, including any entity treated as a corporation or partnership for federal income tax purposes, an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source, or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more such U.S. Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust (or, to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations, certain trusts in existence on August 20, 1996 that have elected to be treated as U.S. Persons).

STATE OF	)
	) ss.:
COUNTY OF	)

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

I, [______], under penalties of perjury, declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the following representations are true, correct and complete, and being first sworn, depose and say that:

1. I am a [______] of [______] (the “Purchaser”), on behalf of which I have the authority to make this affidavit.

2. The Purchaser is acquiring Class R Certificates representing [__]% of the residual interest in each of the real estate mortgage investment conduits (each, a “REMIC”) designated as the “Lower-Tier REMIC” and “Upper-Tier REMIC,” respectively, relating to the Certificates for which an election is to be made under Section 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).

3. The Purchaser is not a “Disqualified Organization” (as defined below), and that the Purchaser is not acquiring the Class R Certificates for the account of, or as agent or

Exhibit J-2-1

nominee of, or with a view to the transfer of direct or indirect record or beneficial ownership thereof, to a Disqualified Organization. For the purposes hereof, a Disqualified Organization is any of the following: (i) the United States, a State, or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality that is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by any such governmental unit), (ii) a foreign government, International Organization or agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing, (iii) an organization that is exempt from tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by Code Section 511 on unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in Code Section 860E(c)(1)) with respect to the Class R Certificates (except certain farmers’ cooperatives described in Code Section 521), (iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in Code Section 1381(a)(2) or (v) any other Person so designated by the Certificate Registrar based upon an opinion of counsel to the effect that any transfer to such Person may cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding. The terms “United States”, “State” and “International Organization” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions thereto.

4. The Purchaser acknowledges that Section 860E(e) of the Code would impose a substantial tax on the transferor or, in certain circumstances, on an agent for the transferee, with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Class R Certificates to a Disqualified Organization.

5. The Purchaser is a Permitted Transferee. For the purpose hereof, a “Permitted Transferee” is any Person or agent of such Person other than (a) a Disqualified Organization, (b) any other Person so designated by the Certificate Registrar who is unable to provide an Opinion of Counsel (provided at the expense of such Person or the Person requesting the transfer) to the effect that the transfer of an ownership interest in any Class R Certificate to such Person will not cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding, (c) a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person, (d) an entity treated as a U.S. partnership if any of its partners, directly or indirectly (other than through a U.S. corporation) is (or is permitted to be under the partnership agreement) a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person or (e) a U.S. Tax Person with respect to which income from a Class R Certificate is attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the transferee or any other U.S. Tax Person).

6. No purpose of the acquisition of the Class R Certificates is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

7. The Purchaser will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or any other U.S. Tax Person.

8. Check the applicable paragraph:

☐ The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

Exhibit J-2-2

(i) the present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;

(ii) the present value of the expected future distributions on such Class R Certificate; and

(iii) the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related REMIC generates losses.

For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Purchaser.

☐ The transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

(i) the Purchaser is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;

(ii) at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a Person related to the Purchaser within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

(iii) the Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5); and

(iv) the Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.

☐ None of the above.

9. The Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificates as they become due.

Exhibit J-2-3

10. The Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flows generated by such Certificate.

11. The Purchaser is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register any transfer of a Class R Certificate by the Transferor unless the Purchaser, or such Purchaser’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Purchaser expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer to any Person that does not provide an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement or as to which the Purchaser has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee.

12. The Purchaser represents that it is not acquiring the Class R Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee and that for so long as it retains its interest in the Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee.

13. The Purchaser consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificate will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by a Permitted Transferee.

14. The Purchaser has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.3 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement, a description of which provisions is set forth in the Class R Certificates; and the Purchaser expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such provisions.

15. The Purchaser consents to the designation of the Certificate Administrator as the agent of the Tax Matters Person and “partnership representative” of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by [______] (the “Transferor”) to [______] (the “Transferee”) of Class R Certificates evidencing a [__]% Percentage Interest in such Class (the “Residual Certificates”). The Certificates, including the Residual Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Trust and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2016 (the “Trust and Servicing Agreement”), by and among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Servicer, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Special Servicer, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Trust and Servicing Agreement. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Certificate Registrar, that:

(1) No purpose of the Transferor relating to the transfer of the Residual Certificates by the Transferor to the Transferee is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

(2) The Transferor understands that the Transferee has delivered to you a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement in the form attached to the Trust and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit J-2. The Transferor has no actual knowledge that the Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee (as defined in such Transfer Affidavit and Agreement) and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the Transferee’s representations in such Transfer Affidavit and Agreement are false.

(3) The Transferor has at the time of this transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee as contemplated by Treasury regulation Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Transferor has determined that the Transferee has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Transferor understands that the transfer of the Residual Certificates may not be

Exhibit J-3-1

respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Transferor may continue to be liable for United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Transferor has conducted such an investigation.

	Very truly yours,

If you or any NRSRO Representative is requested or required (orally or in writing, by interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigatory demand, request for information or documents, deposition or similar process relating to any legal proceeding, investigation, hearing or otherwise) to disclose any Confidential Information, you agree to provide the relevant Furnishing Entity with notice as soon as practicable (except in the case of regulatory or other governmental inquiry, examination or investigation, and otherwise to the extent practical and permitted by law, regulation or regulatory or other governmental authority) that a request to disclose the Confidential Information has been made so that the relevant Furnishing Entity may seek an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information if it so chooses. Unless otherwise required by a court or other governmental or regulatory authority to do so, and

Exhibit X-4

provided that you been informed by written notice that the related Furnishing Entity is seeking a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment with respect to the requested Confidential Information, you agree not to disclose the Confidential Information while the Furnishing Entity’s effort to obtain such a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment is pending. You agree to reasonably cooperate with each Furnishing Entity in its efforts to obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the Confidential Information that is being disclosed, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity; provided, however, that in no event shall the NRSRO be required to take a position that such information should be entitled to receive such a protective order or reasonable assurance as to confidential treatment. If a Furnishing Entity succeeds in obtaining a protective order or other remedy, you agree to comply with its terms with respect to the disclosure of the Confidential Information, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the relevant Furnishing Entity waives compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement in writing, you agree to furnish only such information as you are legally required to disclose, at the sole expense of the relevant Furnishing Entity.

Obligation to Return Evaluation Material. Promptly upon written request by or on behalf of the relevant Furnishing Entity, all material or documents, including copies thereof, that contain Evaluation Material will be destroyed or, in your sole discretion, returned to the relevant Furnishing Entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the NRSRO may retain one or more copies of any document or other material containing Evaluation Material to the extent necessary for legal or regulatory compliance (or compliance with the NRSRO’s internal policies and procedures designed to ensure legal or regulatory compliance) and (b) the NRSRO may retain any portion of the Evaluation Material that may be found in backup tapes or other archive or electronic media or other documents prepared by the NRSRO and any Evaluation Material obtained in an oral communication; provided, that any Evaluation Material so retained by the NRSRO will remain subject to this Confidentiality Agreement and the NRSRO will remain bound by the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement.
