All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan); (b) as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. 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;

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; (j) upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

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.
