The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof; (c) except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s).

If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. The Seller has executed and delivered, or is required to execute and deliver, the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”) covering the Seller Information in the Offering Documents.

provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor; (h) within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email; (i) upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test; (l) the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method; (m) the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and (n) with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is (or may become pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, (x) in the event that the Closing Date occurs on or prior to the closing date of the related Outside Securitization Trust (such event, the “Outside Securitization”), the Seller shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Depositor (and counsel thereto) and the Certificate Administrator (i) written notice in a timely manner of (but no later than three (3) Business Days prior to) the closing date of such Outside Securitization, and (ii) no later than one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization, a copy of the Outside Servicing Agreement in an XXXXX-compatible format, and (y) in the event that the Closing Date occurs after the closing date of the Outside Securitization, the Seller shall provide, or cause the Outside Depositor to provide, the Depositor (and counsel thereto) with a copy of the related Outside Servicing Agreement (together with any amendments thereto) in an XXXXX-compatible format by the later of (i) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and (ii) one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization.
