provided, however, that the Master Servicer’s right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause is limited to amounts received on or in respect of particular Mortgage Loans (including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds and amounts representing Insurance Proceeds with respect to the property subject to the related Mortgage) which represent late recoveries (net of the applicable Servicing Fee and the Master Servicing Fee) of payments of principal or interest respecting which any such Advance was made; provided, further, that following the final liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer may reimburse itself for previously unreimbursed Advances in excess of Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loans from any funds in the Collection Account, it being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement, that the Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the Certificateholders; (ii) to reimburse itself or any Servicer for any Servicing Advances made by it or by such Servicer that it or such Servicer determines in good faith will not be recoverable from amounts representing late recoveries of payments of principal or interest respecting the particular Mortgage Loan as to which such Servicing Advance was made or from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loan, it being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement, that such Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the Certificateholders; (iii) to reimburse itself or any Servicer from Liquidation Proceeds for Liquidation Expenses and for amounts expended by it pursuant to Sections 9.20 and 9.22(a) or the applicable Servicing Agreement in good faith in connection with the restoration of damaged property and, to the extent that Liquidation Proceeds after such reimbursement exceed the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage Rate less the applicable Servicing Fee and the Master Servicing Fee for such Mortgage Loan to the Due Date next succeeding the date of its receipt of such Liquidation Proceeds, to pay to itself out of such excess the amount of any unpaid assumption fees, late payment charges or other Mortgagor charges on the related Mortgage Loan and to retain any excess remaining thereafter as additional servicing compensation, it being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement or payment, that such Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the Certificateholders; (iv) to reimburse itself or any Servicer for expenses incurred by and recoverable by or reimbursable to it or such Servicer pursuant to Section 9.04, 9.05, 9.06, 9.16 or 9.22(a) or pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement, and to reimburse itself for any expenses reimbursable to it pursuant to Section 10.01(c); (v) to pay to the applicable Person, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or REO Property acquired in respect thereof that has been repurchased by such Person pursuant to this Agreement, all amounts received thereon and not distributed on the date on which the related repurchase was effected; (vi) subject to Section 5.05, to pay to itself income earned on the investment of funds deposited in the Collection Account; (vii) to make payments to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account in the amounts and in the manner provided for in Section 4.01(c); (viii) to make distributions of any Retained Interest to the Retained Interest Holder on each Distribution Date (other than any Retained Interest not deposited into the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.01(d)(iii)); (ix) to make payment to itself, the Trustee and others pursuant to any provision of this Agreement; (x) to withdraw funds deposited in error in the Collection Account; (xi) to clear and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section 7.02; (xii) to reimburse a successor Master Servicer (solely in its capacity as successor Master Servicer), for any fee or advance occasioned by a termination of the Master Servicer, and the assumption of such duties by the Trustee or a successor Master Servicer appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14, in each case to the extent not reimbursed by the terminated Master Servicer, it being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement or payment, that the right of the Master Servicer or the Trustee thereto shall be prior to the rights of the Certificateholders; and (xiii) to reimburse any Servicer for such amounts as are due thereto under the applicable Servicing Agreement and have not been retained by or paid to such Servicer to the extent provided in such Servicing Agreement. If provided in the related Servicing Agreement, each Servicer shall be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation any Prepayment Interest Excess (to the extent not offset by Prepayment Interest Shortfalls). In the event that the Master Servicer fails on any Deposit Date to remit to the Trustee any amounts required to be so remitted to the Trustee pursuant to subclause (vii) by 12 noon (New York time) on such date, the Master Servicer shall pay the Trustee, for the account of the Trustee, interest calculated at the “prime rate” (as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal) on such amounts not timely remitted for the period from and including that Deposit Date to but not including the related Distribution Date. In connection with withdrawals pursuant to subclauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (vi) above, the Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s entitlement thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, except as provided herein. The Master Servicer shall therefore keep and maintain a separate accounting for each Mortgage Loan it master services for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account it maintains pursuant to subclauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (vi) above.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of any such Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made available such amount to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent in the applicable currency.
