Such indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Trust Administrator hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, and except for any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from the Trust Administrator’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, or which would not be an “unanticipated expense” within the meaning of the second preceding sentence, the Trust Administrator shall be reimbursed by the Trust for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trust Administrator in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement with respect to: (A) the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel not associated with the closing of the issuance of the Certificates, (B) the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of any accountant, engineer, appraiser or other agent that is not regularly employed by the Trust Administrator, to the extent that the Trust Administrator must engage such Persons to perform acts or services hereunder and (C) printing and engraving expenses in connection with preparing any Definitive Certificates.

The Certificate Administrator shall pay the Trustee the Trustee’s portion of the Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fee. The Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fee shall be paid monthly on a Mortgage Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis. The Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fee (which in each case shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) shall constitute the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s sole form of compensation for all services rendered by each of them in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, hereunder. No Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fee shall be payable with respect to any Companion Loan. In the event that the Trustee assumes the servicing responsibilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder pursuant to or otherwise arising from the resignation or removal of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, the Trustee shall be entitled to the compensation to which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would have been entitled.

The Master Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to, and to the extent provided for in Sections 3.06(a)(iii), Section 3.06(A) and Section 3.07(b), to withdraw from the Collection Account and the Loan Combination Custodial Accounts and to receive from any Mortgagor Accounts (to the extent not payable to the related Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Loan Combination or applicable law) any interest or other income earned on deposits therein. Interest or other income earned on funds in the Collection Account, Loan Combination Custodial Account and Mortgagor Accounts (to the extent consistent with the related Loan Documents), shall be paid to the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and interest or other income earned on funds in any REO Account shall be payable to the Special Servicer. In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to charge and retain reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request with respect to any Performing Serviced Loan that either does not relate to a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision or relates to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision that is being processed by the Master Servicer with the mutual agreement of the Special Servicer, to the extent such fees are (i) not inconsistent with the related Loan Documents, (ii) in accordance with the Servicing Standard and (iii) actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer’s right to the additional servicing compensation described in this paragraph with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan shall be subject to the related Co-Lender Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Excess Modification Fee, Assumption Fee, Consent Fee or other fee with respect to a Performing Serviced Loan that is required to be split between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in its sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any such fee; provided, however (x) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the percentage interest of any fee due to the other and (y) to the extent either of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge such fee shall not have any right to share in any portion of the other party’s fee. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer shall still be entitled to charge the portion of the related fee the Special Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall only apply to Performing Serviced Loans and, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, shall not prohibit any waiver or reduction by the Special Servicer of any fee payable by the Mortgagor with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan. Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association and any successor holder of the Excess Servicing Fee Rights shall be entitled, at any time, at its own expense, to transfer, sell, pledge or otherwise assign such Excess Servicing Fee Rights in whole (but not in part), in either case, to any Qualified Institutional Buyer or Institutional Accredited Investor (other than a Plan); provided that no such transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment shall be made unless (i) that transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws and is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws, (ii) the prospective transferor shall have delivered to the Depositor a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit CC-1 to this Agreement, and (iii) the prospective transferee shall have delivered to Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association and the Depositor a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit CC-2 to this Agreement. None of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Certificate Registrar is obligated to register or qualify an Excess Servicing Fee Right under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer, sale, pledge or assignment of an Excess Servicing Fee Right without registration or qualification. Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association and each holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right desiring to effect a transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment of such Excess Servicing Fee Right shall, and Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association hereby agrees, and each such holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right by its acceptance of such Excess Servicing Fee Right shall be deemed to have agreed, in connection with any transfer of such Excess Servicing Fee Right effected by such Person, to indemnify the Certificateholders, the Trust, the Depositor, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Registrar and the Special Servicer against any liability that may result if such transfer is not exempt from registration and/or qualification under the Securities Act or other applicable federal and state securities laws or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws or in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph. By its acceptance of an Excess Servicing Fee Right, the holder thereof shall be deemed to have agreed not to use or disclose any information received in connection with its acquisition and holding of such Excess Servicing Fee Right in any manner that could result in a violation of any provision of the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws or that would require registration of such Excess Servicing Fee Right or any Certificate pursuant to the Securities Act. From time to time following any transfer, sale, pledge or assignment of an Excess Servicing Fee Right, the Person then acting as the Master Servicer shall pay, out of each amount paid to such Master Servicer as Servicing Fees with respect to each related Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, the related Excess Servicing Fees to the holder of such Excess Servicing Fee Right within one (1) Business Day following the payment of such Servicing Fees to the Master Servicer, in each case in accordance with payment instructions provided by such holder in writing to the Master Servicer. The holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right shall not have any rights under this Agreement except as set forth in the preceding sentences of this paragraph. None of the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian shall have any obligation whatsoever regarding payment of the Excess Servicing Fee or the assignment or transfer of the Excess Servicing Fee Right. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Master Servicer shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder, including all fees of any Sub-Servicers retained by it. The Master Servicer will not be entitled to retain any portion of Excess Interest paid on any Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of a Serviced Loan Combination, in no event shall Servicing Fees with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (including an REO Mortgage Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), and in no event shall Servicing Fees with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) (including an REO Companion Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Pool. In addition, with respect to any Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, in no event shall Servicing Fees with respect to such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan (including an REO Companion Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Pool. This paragraph is in no way intended to limit the rights, if any, of the Master Servicer under the related Co-Lender Agreement to seek payment of unpaid Servicing Fees with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan from the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.
Securities Administrator's Fees and Expenses The Securities Administrator shall be entitled to the investment income earned on amounts in the Distribution Account during the Securities Administrator Float Period. The Securities Administrator and any director, officer, employee, agent or “control person” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Control Person”), of the Securities Administrator shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) (i) incurred in connection with any claim or legal action relating to (a) this Agreement, (b) the Mortgage Loans or (c) the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of any of the Securities Administrator’s duties hereunder, (ii) incurred in connection with the performance of any of the Securities Administrator’s duties hereunder, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of any of the Securities Administrator’s duties hereunder or (iii) incurred by reason of any action of the Securities Administrator taken at the direction of the Certificateholders, provided that any such loss, liability or expense constitutes an “unanticipated expense incurred by the REMIC” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G 1(b)(3)(ii). Such indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Securities Administrator hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, and except for any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from the Securities Administrator’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, or which would not be an “unanticipated expense” within the meaning of the second preceding sentence, the Securities Administrator shall be reimbursed by the Trust for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Securities Administrator in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement with respect to: (A) the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel not associated with the closing of the issuance of the Certificates, (B) the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of any accountant, engineer, appraiser or other agent that is not regularly employed by the Securities Administrator, to the extent that the Securities Administrator must engage such Persons to perform acts or services hereunder and (C) printing and engraving expenses in connection with preparing any Definitive Certificates. The Trust shall fulfill its obligations under this paragraph from amounts on deposit from time to time in the Distribution Account. The Securities Administrator shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as provided in this Agreement.
Trustee Compensation The Trustees as such shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from the Trust. They may fix the amount of their compensation. Nothing herein shall in any way prevent the employment of any Trustee for advisory, management, administrative, legal, accounting, investment banking, underwriting, brokerage, or investment dealer or other services and the payment for the same by the Trust.
Advances by Master Servicer and Trustee (a) In the event an Other Servicer fails to make any required Periodic Advances of principal and interest on a Mortgage Loan as required by the related Other Servicing Agreement prior to the Distribution Date occurring in the month during which such Periodic Advance is due, the Master Servicer shall make Periodic Advances to the extent provided hereby. In the event WFHM fails to make any required Periodic Advances of principal and interest on a Mortgage Loan as required by the WFHM Servicing Agreement prior to the Distribution Date occurring in the month during which such Periodic Advance is due, the Trustee shall, to the extent required by Section 8.14, make such Periodic Advance to the extent provided hereby, provided that the Trustee has previously received the certificate of the Master Servicer described in the following sentence. The Master Servicer shall certify to the Trustee with respect to any such Distribution Date (i) the amount of Periodic Advances required of WFHM or such Other Servicer, as the case may be, (ii) the amount actually advanced by WFHM or such Other Servicer, (iii) the amount that the Trustee or Master Servicer is required to advance hereunder and (iv) whether the Master Servicer has determined that it reasonably believes that such Periodic Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. Amounts advanced by the Trustee or Master Servicer shall be deposited in the Certificate Account on the related Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee will be obligated to make a Periodic Advance that it reasonably believes to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Trustee may conclusively rely for any determination to be made by it hereunder upon the determination of the Master Servicer as set forth in its certificate.
Compensation and Expenses of Trustee The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee, in any capacity under this Indenture, from time to time, and the Trustee shall receive such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been caused by its gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction entered into in connection herewith and its officers, directors, attorneys, employees and agents and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim (whether asserted by the Company, a Holder or any Person), damage, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, attorneys, agents or employees, or such agent or authenticating agent, as the case may be, as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or in any other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim of liability in the premises or the enforcement of this Section 7.06. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a senior lien to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of Section 6.05, funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes, and, for the avoidance of doubt, such lien shall not be extended in a manner that would conflict with the Company’s obligations to its other creditors. The Trustee’s right to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 7.06 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Company. The obligation of the Company under this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this Section 7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or Section 6.01(i) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.
Duties of Trust Administrator The Trust Administrator, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator shall have actual knowledge and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default that may have occurred, undertakes with respect to the Trust Fund to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In case an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator shall have actual knowledge has occurred and remains uncured, the Trust Administrator shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trust Administrator set forth in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty. The Trust Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trust Administrator that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement. The Trust Administrator shall have no duty to recompute, recalculate or verify the accuracy of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument so furnished to the Trust Administrator. If any such instrument is found not to conform in any material respect to the requirements of this Agreement, the Trust Administrator shall notify the Certificateholders of such instrument in the event that the Trust Administrator, after so requesting, does not receive a satisfactorily corrected instrument. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trust Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own misconduct, its negligent failure to perform its obligations in compliance with this Agreement, or any liability which would be imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance or bad faith; provided, however, that:
Compensation and Expenses of the Trustee The Trustee shall be entitled to receive from the Sponsor or an Affiliate of the Sponsor (including the Trust) reasonable compensation for its services hereunder as set forth in a separate fee agreement and shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Sponsor or an Affiliate of the Sponsor (including the Trust) for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in the performance of its duties hereunder, including without limitation, the reasonable compensation, out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of counsel and such other agents as the Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its rights and duties hereunder.
