Separate Trustees and Co-Trustees The Trustee shall have the power from time to time to appoint one or more persons or corporations to act either as co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or as separate trustees, for the purpose of holding title to, foreclosing or otherwise taking action with respect to any Mortgage Loan outside the state where the Trustee has its principal place of business, where such separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable (or the Trustee is advised by the Master Servicer that such separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable) under the laws of any state in which a Mortgaged Property is located or for the purpose of otherwise conforming to any legal requirement, restriction or condition in any state in which a Mortgaged Property is located or in any state in which any portion of the Trust Estate is located. The Master Servicer shall advise the Trustee when, in its good faith opinion, a separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable as aforesaid. The separate trustees or co-trustees so appointed shall be trustees for the benefit of all of the Certificateholders and shall have such powers, rights and remedies as shall be specified in the instrument of appointment; provided, however, that no such appointment shall, or shall be deemed to, constitute the appointee an agent of the Trustee. The Seller and the Master Servicer shall join in any such appointment, but such joining shall not be necessary for the effectiveness of such appointment. Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

SUCCESSOR OWNER TRUSTEES AND ADDITIONAL OWNER TRUSTEES
Other Business Activities of the Noteholders Each Noteholder acknowledges that each other Noteholder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, (i) (a) the Mortgage Loan Borrower or (b) any direct or indirect parent of the Mortgage Loan Borrower or (c) any Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower or (d) any Affiliate of any direct or indirect parent of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, (ii) any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate of the holder of such debt, or (iii) any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate of a holder of such preferred equity (each, a “Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party”), and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Parties and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.
Action by the Trustees and Committees Meetings of the Trustees shall be held from time to time within or without the State of Delaware upon the call of the Chairman, if any, the Vice Chairman, if any, the President, the Principal Executive Officer, the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary or any two Trustees. No annual meeting of Trustees shall be required.
Co-Trustees and Separate Trustees (a) At any time or times, if the Issuer, the Trustee or any Noteholder determines that it is necessary for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any of the Asset Pool may at the time be located, the Issuer and the Trustee (with the written consent of the Insurer, if no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) shall have power to appoint, and, upon the written request of the Trustee or the Insurer (if no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) or the holders of a majority of the then Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes (if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing), the Issuer shall for such purpose join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery, and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Trustee, of all or any part of such Asset Pool, or to act as separate trustee of any such property, in either case with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment, and to vest in such Person or Persons in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or desirable, subject to the other provisions of this Section. If the Issuer does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee (if no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing), or the holders of a majority of the then Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes (if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing), alone shall have power to make such appointment.
Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustees (a) The rights, immunities, duties and responsibilities of the Trustees shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement and there shall be no other duties (including fiduciary duties) or obligations, express or implied, at law or in equity, of the Trustees; provided, however, that if an Event of Default known to the Property Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require any of the Trustees to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its or their rights or powers, if it or they shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not herein expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustees shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.5. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be construed to release any Administrative Trustee from liability for his or her own negligent action, negligent failure to act; or his or her own willful misconduct. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Trustee has duties and liabilities relating to the Trust or to the Holders, such Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any Holder for such Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Trustees otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Holders to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustees.
Other Business Activities of the Holders Each Holder acknowledges that the other Holders may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Borrower Party Affiliate, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to any Borrower Party Affiliate and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability, but only if none of the foregoing violate the Mortgage Loan Documents, in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.
