Selection and Nomination of Trustees While this Plan is in effect, the selection and nomination of persons to be Trustees of the Fund who are not "interested persons" of the Fund ("Disinterested Trustees") shall be committed to the discretion of the incumbent Disinterested Trustees.

Appointment of Special Servicer The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right (subject to the terms, conditions and limitations in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer with the Required Special Servicer Rating. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and each other party to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and delivering a Rating Agency Communication to each Rating Agency (or obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency, but only if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects any Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Lead Securitization’s “collection account”.
