be a swap disclosure event (“Swap Disclosure Event”) if, on any Business Day
after the date hereof, MASTR notifies UBS AG the Significance Percentage has
reached one of the thresholds for significance of derivative contracts set
forth
in Item 1115 of Regulation AB (based on a reasonable determination by MASTR,

pursuant to the Exchange Act.
(v) UBS
AG
agrees that, in the event that UBS AG provides Swap Financial Disclosure to
MASTR in accordance with paragraph (iii) above, or causes its affiliate to
provide Swap Financial Disclosure to MASTR in accordance with paragraph (iv)(b)
above, it will indemnify and hold harmless MASTR, its respective directors
or
officers and any person controlling MASTR, from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages and liabilities (any “Damage”) caused by any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Swap Financial
Disclosure or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state in such Swap
Financial Disclosure a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary

were made, not misleading; provided, however that the foregoing shall not apply
to any Damage caused by the negligence or any willful action of MASTR or any
other party (other than UBS AG or any of its affiliates or any of their
respective agents), including without limitation any failure to calculate the
Significance Percentage according to the terms of this Agreement or to make
any
filing as and when required under Regulation AB.
(vi) In
the
event that UBS AG provides the information referred to above, such information
shall be provided not later than two (2) calendar days prior to the date in
which the Trust Administrator is required to file a Form 10-D for such
Distribution Date.

Methodology”

such method for determining maximum probable exposure of a derivative contract
as mutually agreed to by MASTR and UBS AG.

transfer, amendment, waiver, supplement, assignment or other modification of
this Transaction (other than the pledge of this Transaction to the Trust
Administrator pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall be
permitted by either party unless S&P has been provided notice of the same
and confirms in writing (including by facsimile transmission) that it will
not
downgrade, qualify, withdraw or otherwise modify its then-current rating of

any
such Transaction.
