The Master Servicer The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with general industry practice and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through a subservicer, (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Noteholders, the Trust, and the Indenture Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner provided in this Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall remain responsible to the parties to this Agreement and the Credit Enhancer for its obligations under this Agreement. Any amounts received by any subservicer on a Mortgage Loan shall be considered to have been received by the Master Servicer whether or not actually received by it. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer may execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Noteholders, and the Indenture Trustee, or any of them, any instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties, in each case to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement. At the request of a Servicing Officer, the Indenture Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement. The Master Servicer in this capacity may also consent to the placing of a lien senior to that of any mortgage on the related Mortgaged Property, if
(i) the new senior lien secures a mortgage loan that refinances an existing first mortgage loan and
(ii) either
(a) the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the new mortgage loan (without taking into account any closing costs that may be financed by the new mortgage loan) is equal to or less than the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the first mortgage loan to be replaced (for purposes of calculating the Loan-to-Value Ratio, the Valuation of the Mortgaged Property will be measured by the lesser of (A) the Valuation of the Mortgaged Property as of the Cut-off Date and (B) the Valuation of the Mortgaged Property as of the date of the refinancing referenced in clause (i)) or
(b) the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of the new mortgage loan (without taking into account any closing costs that may be financed by the new mortgage loan) and the existing Mortgage Loan is equal to less than 70% (for purposes of calculating the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio, the Valuation of the Mortgaged Property will be measured as the lesser of (A) the Valuation of the Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date and (B) the Valuation of the Mortgage Loan as of the date of the refinancing referenced in clause (i)). The aggregate Asset Balance of all the Mortgage Loans with respect to which the senior lien may be so modified may not exceed 50% of the Original Note Principal Balance. The Master Servicer may also, without approval from the Rating Agencies or the Credit Enhancer, increase the Credit Limits on Mortgage Loans if
(i) new appraisals are obtained and the weighted average Combined Loan-to-Value Ratios of the Mortgage Loans after giving effect to the increase are less than or equal to the weighted average Combined Loan-to-Value Ratios of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date and
(ii) the increases are consistent with the Master Servicer's underwriting policies. In addition, the Master Servicer may increase the Credit Limits on Mortgage Loans having aggregate Asset Balances of up to an additional 5.0% of the Original Note Principal Balance, if
