Resignation and Removal of the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator. (a) The Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the other such party, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Advisor, each holder of a B Note or Serviced Companion Loan and the 17g-5 Information Provider; provided that such resignation shall not be effective until its successor shall have accepted the appointment. The Trustee, the Custodian and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall bear all costs associated with its respective resignation and the appointment of a successor trustee, custodian or certificate administrator, as applicable. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor trustee, custodian or certificate administrator, as the case may be, except in the case of the initial Trustee and Certificate Administrator, in which case both shall be so replaced but may be replaced under this paragraph sequentially, by written instrument, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee, one copy to the successor trustee and one copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator and, subject to Section 5.7, the Rating Agencies. If no successor trustee, custodian or certificate administrator shall have been so appointed, as the case may be, and shall have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee, Custodian or Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, custodian or certificate administrator, as the case may be. It shall be a condition to the appointment of a successor trustee, custodian or certificate administrator that such entity satisfies the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 7.5 and if, and for so long as, the Trust or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the trust created pursuant to an Other Companion Loan Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, such appointment shall have been consented to by the Depositor or the depositor under the Other Companion Loan Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as the case may be (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). (b) If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.5(a) and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor, (ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, (iii) a tax is imposed or threatened with respect to the Trust or any REMIC Pool by any state in which the Trustee or the Trust held by the Trustee is located solely because of the location of the Trustee in such state; provided, that, provided that if the Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust for such taxes, it shall not be removed pursuant to this clause (iii), or (iv) the continuation of the Trustee as such would result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the rating by the Rating Agencies of any Class of Certificates with a rating as evidenced in writing by the Rating Agencies, then the Depositor may remove such Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed, one copy to the successor trustee and one copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider. In the case of removal under clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, the Trustee shall bear all such costs of transfer. Such succession shall take effect after a successor trustee has been appointed. If the Trust, or any Other Securitization that holds a Serviced Companion Loan, is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and the Trustee or any Additional Servicer, Sub-Servicer, or Servicing Function Participant engaged by the Trustee fails to perform (subject to any applicable grace periods set forth therein) any of its obligations under Article XIII of this Agreement, and such failure to perform does not result from a failure to perform of any other party to this Agreement to deliver within the time frames required by Article XIII any reports or other information as set forth in such Article to the Trustee, the Trustee shall, if so requested by the Depositor, resign from its obligations hereunder within sixty (60) calendar days of such request and, if the Trustee fails to resign within such sixty (60) day period, the Depositor shall have the right to remove and replace the Trustee in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 7.6(b).

(d) If at any time (i) the Certificate Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.5(c) and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor, (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Certificate Administrator or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Certificate Administrator or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, (iii) a tax is imposed or threatened with respect to the Trust or any REMIC Pool by any state in which the Certificate Administrator or the Trust is located solely because of the location of the Certificate Administrator in such state; provided, that, provided that if the Certificate Administrator agrees to indemnify the Trust for such taxes, it shall not be removed pursuant to this clause (iii), or (iv) the continuation of the Certificate Administrator as such would result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal, as applicable, of the rating by any Rating Agency of any Class of Certificates with a rating as evidenced in writing by the Rating Agencies, then the Depositor or the Trustee shall send a written notice of termination to the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which notice shall specify the reason for such termination) and remove such Certificate Administrator and the Depositor shall appoint a successor Certificate Administrator by written instrument, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator so removed, one copy to the successor Certificate Administrator, and one copy to each of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the 17g-5 Information Provider. In all such cases, the Certificate Administrator shall bear all costs of transfer to a successor Certificate Administrator, such succession only to take effect after a successor Certificate Administrator has been appointed. If the Trust, or any Other Securitization that holds a Serviced Companion Loan, is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and the Certificate Administrator or any Additional Servicer, Sub-Servicer, or Servicing Function Participant engaged by the Certificate Administrator fails to perform (subject to any applicable grace periods set forth therein) any of its obligations under Article XIII of this Agreement, and such failure to perform does not result from a default of any other party to this Agreement to deliver within the time frames required by Article XIII any reports or other information as set forth in such Article to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall, if so requested by the Depositor, resign from its obligations hereunder within sixty (60) calendar days of such request and, if the Certificate Administrator fails to resign within such sixty (60) day period, the Depositor shall have the right to remove and replace the Certificate Administrator in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 7.6(d). (e) The Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the Voting Rights of all the Certificates may for cause upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, and to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, remove the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, by such written instrument, signed by such Holders or their attorney-in-fact duly authorized, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Depositor and one copy to the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, so removed; and the Depositor shall thereupon use its best efforts to appoint a successor Trustee, the Custodian or Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, in accordance with this Section. (f) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, and appointment of a successor trustee, custodian or certificate administrator pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, custodian or certificate administrator, as the case may be, as provided in Section 7.7.
