Related to Servicing Transfer of Servicing

• Transfer of Servicing On the related Transfer Date, if any, the Purchaser, or its designee, shall assume all servicing responsibilities related to, and the Seller cease all servicing responsibilities related to, the related Mortgage Loans subject to such Transfer Date. On or prior to the related Transfer Date, the Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, take such steps as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and evidence the transfer of the servicing of the related Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, or its designee, including but not limited to the following:

• Servicing Transfer In the event that a successor Master Servicer is appointed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, from and after the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the successor Master Servicer appointed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and not the former Master Servicer, shall (a) be responsible for the performance of all servicing functions to be performed from and after such date, (b) agree to be bound by the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein applicable to the Master Servicer and be subject to the duties and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder, and (c) agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Credit Enhancement Provider from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses whatsoever which the Credit Enhancement Provider may incur (or which may be claimed against the Credit Enhancement Provider) by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the successor Master Servicer in exercising its powers and carrying out its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement. Such transfer of servicing shall not affect any rights or obligations of the former Master Servicer under this Agreement that arose prior to the effective date of the transfer of servicing, except that such former Master Servicer shall have no obligation to indemnify the Credit Enhancement Provider as a result of any act or failure to act of any successor Master Servicer in the performance of the servicing functions.

• Effect of Servicing Transfer (a) After a transfer of servicing hereunder, the successor Servicer shall notify the Obligors to make directly to the successor Servicer payments that are due under the Receivables after the effective date of such transfer.

• No Transfer of Servicing With respect to the retention of the Company to service the Mortgage Loans hereunder, the Company acknowledges that the Purchaser has acted in reliance upon the Company's independent status, the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plan, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing and the continuance thereof. Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section, the Company shall not either assign this Agreement or the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which consent shall be granted or withheld in the Purchaser's sole discretion. Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 8.05, in the event that the Company either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof without (i) satisfying the requirements set forth herein or (ii) the prior written consent of the Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Company (other than with respect to accrued but unpaid Servicing Fees and Servicing Advances remaining unpaid) or any third party.

• Transfer of Servicing Between Master Servicer and Special Servicer; Record Keeping (a) Upon determining that any Serviced Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder (in the case of a Serviced Loan Combination), the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the related Directing Holder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event with respect to the related Mortgage Loan) and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider and shall promptly deliver a copy of the Servicing File to the Special Servicer and concurrently provide a copy of such Servicing File to the Operating Advisor and shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents (but excluding the original documents constituting the Mortgage File, but including copies thereof) and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Serviced Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its duties hereunder with respect thereto without acting through a Sub-Servicer. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the date such Serviced Loan became a Specially Serviced Loan and in any event shall continue to act as Master Servicer and administrator of such Serviced Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of such Serviced Loan, which shall occur upon the receipt by the Special Servicer of the Servicing File. With respect to each such Serviced Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall instruct the related Mortgagor to continue to remit all payments in respect of such Serviced Loan to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall forward any notices it would otherwise send to the Mortgagor of such a Specially Serviced Loan to the Special Servicer who shall send such notice to the related Mortgagor. Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Loan has become a Corrected Loan, the Special Servicer shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, the related Directing Holder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event with respect to the related Mortgage Loan) and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider and, upon giving such notice and the return of the Servicing File to the Master Servicer, such Serviced Loan shall cease to be a Specially Serviced Loan in accordance with the first proviso of the definition of Specially Serviced Loans, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Serviced Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and administer such Serviced Loan as a Serviced Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan shall resume. In addition, if the related Mortgagor has been instructed, pursuant to the preceding paragraph, to make payments to the Special Servicer, upon such determination, the Special Servicer shall instruct the related Mortgagor to remit all payments in respect of such Specially Serviced Loan directly to the Master Servicer.

• Subservicing Agreement The written contract between the Master Servicer and any Subservicer relating to servicing and administration of certain Mortgage Loans as provided in Section 3.02, generally in the form of the servicer contract referred to or contained in the Program Guide or in such other form as has been approved by the Master Servicer and the Company. With respect to Additional Collateral Loans subserviced by MLCC, the Subservicing Agreement shall also include the Addendum and Assignment Agreement and the Pledged Asset Mortgage Servicing Agreement. With respect to any Pledged Asset Loan subserviced by GMAC Mortgage, LLC, the Addendum and Assignment Agreement, dated as of November 24, 1998, between the Master Servicer and GMAC Mortgage, LLC, as such agreement may be amended from time to time.

• Transfer of the Mortgage Loans (a) Possession of Mortgage Files. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans. The contents of each Mortgage File related to a Mortgage Loan not delivered to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date are and shall be held in trust by the Seller for the benefit of the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser and promptly transferred to the Trustee. Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Mortgage Note, the related Mortgage and the other contents of the related Mortgage File shall be vested in the Purchaser and the ownership of all records and documents with respect to the related Mortgage Loan prepared by or that come into the possession of the Seller on or after the Closing Date shall immediately vest in the Purchaser and shall be delivered promptly to the Purchaser or as otherwise directed by the Purchaser.

• No Transfer or Assignment of Servicing With respect to the responsibility of the Primary Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans hereunder, the Primary Servicer acknowledges that the Master Servicer has acted in reliance upon the Primary Servicer’s independent status, the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing and the continuance thereof. Without in any way limiting the generality of Section 3.05 of this Agreement, the Primary Servicer shall not either assign or transfer this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written approval of the Master Servicer, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the Primary Servicer may transfer and assign this Agreement to an Affiliate of the Primary Servicer so long as the conditions described in clauses (i), (ii), (iv) and (v) of the second paragraph of Section 3.02 of this Agreement are satisfied in connection with such transfer and assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to any assignment or transfer by the Primary Servicer of this Agreement or the servicing hereunder (the “Primary Servicing Rights”), the Primary Servicer shall allow the Master Servicer an opportunity to bid on the purchase of such Primary Servicing Rights. The Primary Servicer may also solicit bids from any other parties independent of the Primary Servicer.

• Servicing Rights Except as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, any permitted subservicing agreements and servicing rights purchase agreements pertaining thereto, no Person has been granted or conveyed the right to service any Mortgage Loan or receive any consideration in connection therewith which will remain in effect after the Closing Date.

• Assignment of Master Servicing The Master Servicer may sell and assign its rights and delegate its duties and obligations in its entirety as Master Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accept in writing such assignment and delegation and assume the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder (a) shall have a net worth of not less than $25,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause (ii) below); (b) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (as evidenced in a writing signed by the Trustee); and (c) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by it as master servicer under this Agreement, any custodial agreement from and after the effective date of such agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor to the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency’s rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment, sale and delegation will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale and delegation, as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered to the Master Servicer and the Trustee; and (iii) the Master Servicer assigning and selling the master servicing shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Independent counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement have been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of this Agreement. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any liability of the Master Servicer arising out of acts or omissions prior to the effective date thereof.
