(B) in the case of a Buyer or Buyer assignee which is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Code section 7701(a)(30): (I) a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, evidencing entitlement to a zero percent or reduced rate of U.S. federal income tax withholding on any payments made hereunder, (II) in the case of such non-U.S. Person claiming exemption from the withholding of U.S. federal income tax under Code sections 871(h) or 881(c) with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a duly executed certificate (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) to the effect that such non-U.S. Person is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(A), (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller, Guarantor or affiliate thereof, within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(B), or (z) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Code section 881(c)(3)(C), (III) to the extent such non-U.S. person is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if such non-U.S. person is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such non-U.S. person are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such non-U.S. person may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner, and (IV) executed originals of any other form or supplementary documentation prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by law to permit the Seller or Guarantor to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(C) if a payment made to a Buyer or Buyer assignee under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer or assignee were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Buyer or assignee shall deliver to the Seller or Guarantor at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Seller as may be necessary for the Seller to comply with their obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 11(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. The applicable IRS forms referred to above shall be delivered by each applicable Buyer or Buyer assignee on or prior to the date on which such person becomes a Buyer or Buyer assignee under this Agreement, as the case may be, and upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any IRS form previously delivered by it hereunder.
f. Any indemnification payable by Seller or Guarantor to Buyer or any Buyer assignee for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that are imposed on Buyer or a Buyer assignee, as described in Section 11(e)(i) hereof, shall be paid by Seller or Guarantor within ten (10) days after demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Seller or Guarantor by Buyer or a Buyer assignee shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
g. If Buyer determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 11 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 11), it shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of Buyer and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Seller, upon the request of Buyer, shall repay to Buyer the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that Buyer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11, in no event will Buyer be required to pay any amount to Seller pursuant to this Section 11 the payment of which would place Buyer in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Buyer would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Buyer to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to Seller or any other Person.
h. If Buyer requests Seller to pay any Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or additional amounts to Buyer or any Governmental Authority for the account of Buyer pursuant to this Section 11, then Buyer shall, at the written request of Seller, consider, in its sole good faith discretion, designating a different office for engaging in this transaction or assigning its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the sole judgment of Buyer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 11 in the future, and (ii) would not subject Buyer to any unreimbursed cost or expense. If Buyer agrees in its sole discretion, to effectuate such designation or assignment, Seller hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with any such designation or assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Buyer shall have no obligation to comply with Seller’s request contemplated herein, and to the extent that Buyer determines not to do so, regardless of the reason for such determination, Buyer shall have no obligation or liability to the Seller hereunder.
i. Each party’s obligations under this Section 11 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, Buyer or a Buyer assignee, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Program Agreement.
j. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans, and the Purchased Mortgage Loans as owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller. Buyer and Seller agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

h. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets, and the Purchased Assets as owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller. Buyer and Seller agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Assets, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

h. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of each Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets, and the Purchased Assets as owned by such Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by any Seller. Buyer and Sellers agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from Buyer to Sellers secured by the Purchased Assets, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 11(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.
h. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Sellers that is secured by the Purchased Assets, and the Purchased Assets as owned by Sellers in the absence of an Event of Default by Sellers. Buyer and Sellers agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from Buyer to Sellers secured by the Purchased Assets, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation in Section 11(e)((ii)(A), (B) and (C) below) shall not be required if in a Buyer’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Buyer to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Buyer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall and shall cause a Buyer to deliver to the Seller, to the extent legally entitled to do so:
(A) in the case of a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant which is a “U.S. Person” as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, a properly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 certifying that it is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B) in the case of a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant which is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Code section 7701(a)(30): (I) a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as appropriate, evidencing entitlement to a zero percent or reduced rate of U.S. federal income tax withholding on any payments made hereunder, (II) in the case of such non-U.S. Person claiming exemption from the withholding of U.S. federal income tax under Code sections 871(h) or 881(c) with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a duly executed certificate (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) to the effect that such non-U.S. Person is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(A), (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller or affiliate thereof, within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(B), or (z) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Code section 881(c)(3)(C), (III) to the extent such non-U.S. person is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if such non-U.S. person is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such non-U.S. person are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such non-U.S. person may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner, and (IV) executed originals of any other form or supplementary documentation prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by law to permit Seller to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(C) if a payment made to a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer or assignee or participant were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Administrative Agent on behalf of such Buyer or assignee or participant shall deliver to the Seller at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Seller as may be necessary for the Seller to comply with their obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 11(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. The applicable IRS forms referred to above shall be delivered by Administrative Agent on behalf of each applicable Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant on or prior to the date on which such person becomes a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant under this Agreement, as the case may be, and upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any IRS form previously delivered by it hereunder.
f. Any indemnification payable by Seller to Administrative Agent or a Buyer for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that are imposed on Administrative Agent or such Buyer, as described in Section 11(e)(i) hereof, shall be paid by Seller within ten (10) days after demand therefor from Administrative Agent. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Seller by the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Buyer shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
g. Each party’s obligations under this Section 11 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Buyer, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Program Agreement.
h. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets, and the Purchased Assets as owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller. Administrative Agent, each Buyer and Seller agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from a Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.
