Modifications of Mortgage With the prior written consent of the Master Servicer, the Servicer may modify the terms of a Mortgage Loan which is in default or a Mortgage Loan as to which default is reasonably foreseeable; provided, however, that (i) such modification may not reduce the amount of principal owed under the related Mortgage Note or permanently reduce the Mortgage Interest Rate for such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the Servicer and the Master Servicer have determined that such modification is likely to increase the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan over the amount expected to be collected pursuant to foreclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not permit any modification of any material term of a Mortgage Loan (including the Mortgage Interest Rate, the principal balance, the amortization schedule, or any other term affecting the amount or timing of payments on the Mortgage Loan) where such modification is not the result of a default or as to which default is reasonably foreseeable under the Mortgage Loan unless the Master Servicer has consented thereto and the Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel or a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (at the expense of the Servicer or the party making the request of the Servicer to modify the Mortgage Loan) to the effect that such modification would not be treated as giving rise to a new debt instrument for federal income tax purposes or a disposition of the modified Mortgage Loan and that such modification is permitted under the REMIC Provisions.
Conveyance of Mortgage Loans; Possession of Mortgage Files; Maintenance of Servicing Files The Company, on each Closing Date, does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, all the right, title and interest of the Company in and to the Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Loan Package. Pursuant to Section 2.03, the Company has delivered the Mortgage Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan in the Mortgage Loan Package to the Custodian.
Modifications of Mortgage Loans Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall permit any modification of a Money Term of a Mortgage Loan (or of a related B Note or Serviced Companion Loan) unless (i) the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian and the Master Servicer have received a Nondisqualification Opinion or a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (at the expense of the related Mortgagor, any holder of a related B Note or Serviced Companion Loan or the Trust) to the effect that such modification would not be treated as an exchange pursuant to Section 1001 of the Code (or, if it would be so treated, would not be treated as a “significant modification” for purposes of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the Treasury Regulations) or (ii) such modification meets the requirements set forth in Sections 8.18 or 9.5.
Satisfaction of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Files Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Seller of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Seller will obtain the portion of the Mortgage File that is in the possession of the Purchaser or its designee, prepare and process any required satisfaction or release of the Mortgage and notify the Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Purchaser agrees to deliver to the Seller (or cause to be delivered to the Seller) the original Mortgage Note for any Mortgage Loan not later than five (5) Business Days following its receipt of a notice from the Seller that such a payment in full has been received or that a notification has been received that such a payment in full shall be made. Such Mortgage Note shall be held by the Seller, in trust, for the purpose of canceling such Mortgage Note and delivering the canceled Mortgage Note to the Mortgagor in a timely manner as and to the extent provided under any applicable federal or state law. In the event the Seller grants a satisfaction or release of a Mortgage without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the Seller shall remit to the Purchaser the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account. The Fidelity Bond shall insure the Seller against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.
Maintenance of Mortgaged Property Borrower shall cause the Mortgaged Property to be maintained in a good and safe condition and repair, subject to wear and tear and damage caused by casualty or condemnation. The Improvements and the Equipment shall not be removed, demolished or altered (except for (1) normal replacement of the Equipment, (2) Improvements contemplated in an approved Operating Budget or pursuant to Leases in effect from time to time, (3) removals, demolition or alterations that do not cost more than 1% of the Principal Indebtedness or (4) an emergency which the Borrower shall have notified the Lender of in writing, including the action taken to remediate) without the consent of Lender which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Except with respect to an Insured Casualty which shall be governed by the terms and conditions provided herein, Borrower shall, or shall cause any tenants obligated under their respective Leases to, promptly repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Mortgaged Property that becomes damaged, worn or dilapidated. Borrower shall complete and pay for any structure at any time in the process of construction or repair on the Land. Borrower shall not initiate, join in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of any Mortgaged Property or any part thereof without the written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit such nonconforming use to be discontinued or abandoned if such discontinuance of abandonment would cause such nonconforming use to no longer be permitted without the express written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Borrower shall not (i) change the use of any of the Land or Improvements in any material respect, (ii) permit or suffer to occur any waste on or to any Mortgaged Property or to any portion thereof or (iii) take any steps whatsoever to convert any Mortgaged Property, or any portion thereof, to a condominium or cooperative form of management.
