Replacement Note Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Maker of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to Maker or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, Maker will execute and deliver to Holder in lieu thereof, a replacement note dated as of the date of this Note, identical in form and substance to this Note and upon such execution and delivery all references in the Mortgage to this Note shall be deemed to refer to such replacement note.
Initial Loan The obligation of the Lender to make its initial Loan hereunder is subject to the satisfaction, immediately prior to or concurrently with the making of such Loan, of the condition precedent that the Lender shall have received all of the following items, each of which shall be satisfactory to the Lender and its counsel in form and substance:
Replacement Notes If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.
Servicing of the Mortgage Loan (a) Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject in each case to the specific terms of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Servicing Agreement.
(b) Prior to the closing of a Lead Securitization, all servicing and other decisions regarding the Mortgage Loan shall be made: (i) with respect to matters set forth on Exhibit D hereto, by unanimous consent of the Holders and (ii) with respect to all other matters, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Servicing Agreement (provided that any conflict between the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of this Agreement), by the Directing Holder. Each PSA shall contain terms and conditions that are customary for securitization transactions involving assets similar to the Mortgage Loan and that are otherwise (A) required by the Code relating to the tax elections of any Trust Fund, (B) required by law or changes in any law, rule or regulation or (C) requested by the Rating Agencies rating any Securitization.
(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents, effective upon the Lead Securitization, to the appointment of the Master Servicer and the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement by the Depositor and the appointment of the Special Servicer by the Directing Holder and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Agreement. Each Holder hereby appoints, effective upon the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Servicing Agreement (subject at all times to the rights of the Holders as set forth herein and in such Servicing Agreement).
(d) If, at any time the Lead Note is no longer in a Securitization, the Lead Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to a servicing agreement that is substantially similar to the Servicing Agreement (and, if any Non-Lead Note is in a Securitization, a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agencies that were engaged by the Depositor to rate such Securitization shall be obtained) and all references herein to the “Servicing Agreement” shall mean such subsequent Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that until a replacement Servicing Agreement has been entered into (and such Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained), the Lead Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Servicing Agreement that was previously in effect for the Lead Note, as if such Servicing Agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan; provided, further, however, that until a replacement Servicing Agreement is in place, the actual servicing of the Mortgage Loan may be performed by any Qualified Servicer appointed by the Lead Note Holder and does not have to be performed by the service providers set forth under the Servicing Agreement that was previously in effect.
Additional Loans Administrative Agent shall not make any Loans or provide any Letter of Credit Accommodations to any Borrower on behalf of Lenders intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations (a) would cause the aggregate amount of the total outstanding Tranche A Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base and (b) would cause the aggregate amount of the total outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Total Borrowing Base, in each case, without the prior consent of all Lenders, except, that, Administrative Agent may make such additional Loans or provide such additional Letter of Credit Accommodations on behalf of Lenders, intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations will cause the total outstanding Tranche A Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base or cause total outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Total Borrowing Base, as Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable in its discretion, provided, that: (i) the total principal amount of the additional Loans or additional Letter of Credit Accommodations to any Borrower which Administrative Agent may make or provide after obtaining such actual knowledge that the aggregate principal amount of the Loans equal or exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base or the Total Borrowing Base, as applicable, plus the amount of Special Administrative Agent Advances made pursuant to Sections 12.11(a)(i) and (ii) hereof then outstanding, shall not exceed $75,000,000 and shall not cause the total principal amount of the Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Maximum Credit or the Tranche A Loans to exceed the Tranche A Maximum Credit or the Tranche A-1 Loans to exceed the Tranche A-1 Maximum Credit and (ii) no such additional Loan or Letter of Credit Accommodation shall be outstanding more than ninety (90) days after the date such additional Loan or Letter of Credit Accommodation is made or issued (as the case may be), except as the Required Tranche A Lenders, Required Tranche A-1 Lenders and Required Tranche A-2 Lenders may otherwise agree and no such additional Loans may exist for at least five (5) consecutive days thereafter before further such additional Loans may be made at the end of such ninety (90) day period. Each Lender shall be obligated to pay Administrative Agent the amount of its Pro Rata Share of any such additional Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations. The Required Lenders may by written notice to Administrative Agent revoke the authority of Administrative Agent to make future additional Loans pursuant to this Section 12.8 at any time.
Mortgage Loan The appraisal was conducted by an appraiser who had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof; and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and the appraiser both satisfy the applicable requirements of Title XI of the Financial Institution Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated;

The Purchaser shall retain the Interim Servicer as contract servicer of the Mortgage Loans for an interim period pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein).

Pursuant to the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein), the Interim Servicer shall begin servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Purchaser and shall be entitled to a Servicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loans until the applicable Transfer Date. The Interim Servicer shall conduct such servicing in accordance with the Interim Servicing Agreement.

Acceptance of the Mortgage Loans (a) Based on the Initial Certification received by it from the Custodian, the Trustee acknowledges receipt of, subject to the further review and exceptions reported by the Custodian pursuant to the procedures described below, the documents (or certified copies thereof) delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf pursuant to Section 2.01 and declares that it holds and will continue to hold directly or through a custodian those documents and any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the Trust Fund delivered to it in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Holders of the Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will deliver an Initial Certification, in the form of Exhibit One to the Custodial Agreement, confirming whether or not it has received the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan, but without review of such Mortgage File, except to the extent necessary to confirm whether such Mortgage File contains the original Mortgage Note or a lost note affidavit and indemnity in lieu thereof. No later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File delivered to it and execute and deliver to EMC (on its own behalf and on behalf of Master Funding) and the Master Servicer and, if reviewed by the Custodian or the Trustee, an Interim Certifications, substantially in the form of Exhibit Two to the Custodial Agreement. In conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will ascertain whether all required documents have been executed and received and whether those documents relate, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B to this Agreement, as supplemented (provided, however, that with respect to those documents described in subclauses (iv) and (vi) of Section 2.01, such obligations shall extend only to documents actually delivered pursuant to such subclauses). In performing any such review, the Trustee and the Custodian may conclusively rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. If the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds any document constituting part of the Mortgage File not to have been executed or received, or to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to appear to be defective on its face, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall include such information in the exception report attached to the Interim Certification. EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall correct or cure any such defect or, if prior to the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) may substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 or shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee to the effect that such defect does not materially or adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan within 60 days from the date of notice from the Trustee of the defect and if EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) fails to correct or cure the defect or deliver such opinion within such period, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) will, subject to Section 2.03, within 90 days from the notification of the Trustee purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) to deliver the Mortgage, assignment thereof to the Trustee, or intervening assignments thereof with evidence of recording thereon because such documents have been submitted for recording and have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan if EMC delivers such documents promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date.
(b) No later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will review, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Mortgage Files and will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) and the Master Servicer and, if reviewed by the Custodian or the Trustee, a Final Certification, substantially in the form of Exhibit Three to the Custodial Agreement. In conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will ascertain whether each document required to be recorded has been returned from the recording office with evidence of recording thereon and the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf has received either an original or a copy thereof, as required in Section 2.01 (provided, however, that with respect to those documents described in subclauses (iv) and (vi) of Section 2.01, such obligations shall extend only to documents actually delivered pursuant to such subclauses). If the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds any document with respect to a Mortgage Loan has not been received, or to be unrelated, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to appear defective on its face, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall note such defect in the exception report attached to the Final Certification and shall promptly notify EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding). EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall correct or cure any such defect or, if prior to the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) may substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 or shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee to the effect that such defect does not materially or adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan within 60 days from the date of notice from the Trustee of the defect and if EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) is unable within such period to correct or cure such defect, or to substitute the related Mortgage Loan with a Replacement Mortgage Loan or to deliver such opinion, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall, subject to Section 2.03, within 90 days from the notification of the Trustee, purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) to deliver the Mortgage, assignment thereof to the Trustee or intervening assignments thereof with evidence of recording thereon, because such documents have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan, if EMC delivers such documents promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to the custody or review of Mortgage Files held by the Custodian pursuant to the Custodial Agreement. The Trustee shall have no liability for the failure of the Custodian to perform its obligations under the Custodial Agreement.
(c) In the event that a Mortgage Loan is purchased by EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) in accordance with subsections 2.02(a) or (b) above or Section 2.03, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall remit the applicable Purchase Price to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Protected Account and shall provide written notice to the Trustee detailing the components of the Purchase Price, signed by a Servicing Officer. Upon deposit of the Purchase Price in the Protected Account and upon receipt of a Request for Release with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Custodian will release to EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, representation or warranty furnished to it by the related Seller, as are necessary to vest in the title to and rights under the Mortgage Loan. Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the deposit into the Protected Account was made. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of such repurchase. The obligation of EMC to cure, repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan as to which a defect in a constituent document exists shall be the sole remedies respecting such defect available to the Certificateholders or to the Trustee on their behalf.
(d) EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf, and Trustee agrees to accept the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Mortgage File with respect to any Replacement Mortgage Loan, which the Trustee or the Custodian will review as provided in subsections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b), provided, that the Closing Date referred to therein shall instead be the date of delivery of the Mortgage File with respect to each Replacement Mortgage Loan.
