Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts; Reserve Accounts (a) Each Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more segregated accounts (“Servicing Accounts”), in which all Escrow Payments received by it with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loans or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, shall be deposited and retained, separate and apart from its own funds. Subject to any terms of the related Mortgage Loan Documents that specify the nature of the account in which Escrow Payments shall be held, each Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account. As and to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, applicable law and the related Mortgage Loan Documents, the applicable Master Servicer may make withdrawals from the Servicing Accounts maintained by it, and may apply Escrow Payments held therein with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (together with interest earned thereon), only as follows: (i) to effect the payment of real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums (including, premiums on any Environmental Insurance Policy), ground rents (if applicable) and comparable items in respect of the related Mortgaged Property; (ii) to reimburse the applicable Master Servicer, the applicable Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances made thereby with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan to cover any of the items described in the immediately preceding clause (i); (iii) to refund to the related Borrower any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) to pay interest or other income, if required and as described below, to the related Borrower on balances in the Servicing Account (or, if and to the extent not payable to the related Borrower to pay such interest or other income (up to the amount of any Net Investment Earnings in respect of such Servicing Account for each Collection Period) to the applicable Master Servicer); (v) disburse Insurance Proceeds if required to be applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property, (vi) after an event of default, to pay the principal of, accrued interest on and any other amounts payable with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan; (vii) to withdraw amounts deposited in the Servicing Account in error; or (viii) to clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. The applicable Master Servicer shall pay or cause to be paid to the related Borrowers interest and other income, if any, earned on the investment of funds in Servicing Accounts maintained thereby, if and to the extent required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Documents. If a Master Servicer shall deposit in a Servicing Account maintained by it any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from such Servicing Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Promptly after any Escrow Payments are received by the applicable Special Servicer from the Borrower under any Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, and in any event within one Business Day after any such receipt, such Special Servicer shall remit such Escrow Payments to the applicable Master Servicer for deposit in the applicable Servicing Account(s).
Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption and Substitution Agreements When a Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance or prospective conveyance, exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of the related Mortgage Loan under any "due-on-sale" clause contained in the related Mortgage or Note; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not exercise any such right if (i) the "due-on-sale" clause, in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable law or (ii) the Servicer reasonably believes that to permit an assumption of the Mortgage Loan would not materially and adversely affect the interest of the Owners or of the Certificate Insurer. In such event, the Servicer shall enter into an assumption and modification agreement with the person to whom such property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes liable under the Note and, unless prohibited by applicable law or the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. If the foregoing is not permitted under applicable law, the Servicer is authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Note; provided, however, that to the extent any such substitution of liability agreement would be delivered by the Servicer outside of its usual procedures for mortgage loans held in its own portfolio the Servicer shall, prior to executing and delivering such agreement, obtain the prior written consent of the Certificate Insurer. The Mortgage Loan, as assumed, shall conform in all respects to the requirements, representations and warranties of this Agreement. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such assumption or substitution agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the original copy of such assumption or substitution agreement, which copy shall be added by the Trustee to the related File and which shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. The Servicer shall be responsible for recording any such assumption or substitution agreements. In connection with any such assumption or substitution agreement, the required monthly payment on the related Mortgage Loan shall not be changed but shall remain as in effect immediately prior to the assumption or substitution, the stated maturity or outstanding principal amount of such Mortgage Loan shall not be changed nor shall any required monthly payments of principal or interest be deferred or forgiven. Any fee collected by the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer for consenting to any such conveyance or entering into an assumption or substitution agreement shall be retained by or paid to the Servicer as additional servicing compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Escrow Accounts (a) To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not violative of current law, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (each, an "Escrow Account") and deposit and retain therein all collections from the Mortgagors (or advances by the Master Servicer) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums or comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall require the Master Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of applicable law.
Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts (a) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all Escrow Payments shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Servicing Accounts in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, the Companion Loan documents. Any Servicing Account related to a Serviced Whole Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Noteholder collectively, but this shall not be construed to modify respective interests of either noteholder therein as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. Amounts on deposit in Servicing Accounts may only be invested in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts to the extent permitted by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents. Withdrawals of amounts so deposited from a Servicing Account may be made only to: (i) effect payment of items for which Escrow Payments were collected and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Trustee and then the Master Servicer, if applicable, for any Servicing Advances; (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account, if required by applicable law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and as described below or, if not so required, to the Master Servicer; (v) after the occurrence of an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, apply amounts to the indebtedness under the applicable Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; (vi) withdraw amounts deposited in error; (vii) pay Penalty Charges to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents; or (viii) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to remit to any Mortgagor any amounts in excess of actual net investment income or funds in the related Servicing Account. If allowed by the related Mortgage Loan documents and applicable law, the Master Servicer may charge the related Mortgagor an administrative fee for maintenance of the Servicing Accounts.
Assignments and Transfers No Party may assign any of its rights and benefits or transfer any of its rights, benefits and obligations in respect of any Debt Documents or the Liabilities except as permitted by this Clause 19.

Benefit of Agreement Assignments Participations (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, no Credit Party may assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder or under any other Credit Document (it being understood that a merger or consolidation not prohibited by this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment or transfer) without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders and provided, further, that, although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments, Loans or related Obligations hereunder except as provided in Section 13.05(b)) and the participant shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder; and provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer, assign or grant any participation (w) to a natural person, (x) to a Competitor (unless consented to by Borrower), (y) to a Disqualified Lender (unless consented to by Borrower) or (z) under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the date for any scheduled payment on, or the final scheduled maturity of, any Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (unless such Letter of Credit is not extended beyond any applicable R/C Maturity Date (unless such Letter of Credit is required to be cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped (with a letter of credit on customary terms) to the applicable L/C Lender’s and the Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction or the participations therein are required to be assumed by Lenders that have commitments which extend beyond such R/C Maturity Date)) in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the total Commitments or Total Revolving Commitments or of a mandatory prepayment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, that an increase in any Commitment (or the available portion thereof) or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof and that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i), notwithstanding the fact that such amendment or modification actually results in such a reduction), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or other Credit Document to which it is a party or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder in which such participant is participating. In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto). Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph (a), Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.01, and 5.06 (subject to the obligations and limitations of such Sections, including Section 5.06(b), (c) and (d) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.06(b), (c) and (d) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 13.05. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.07 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of a Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. A participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.01 or 5.06 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the entitlement to a greater payment results from any change in applicable Laws after the date the participant became a participant.
