SECTION 4 Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1
hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and
interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance
of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant
to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such
conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend
and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event
does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all
of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all
payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off
Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the
Cut-off Date (other than scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or
before the Cut-off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is
deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser
hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee
and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.
SECTION 5 Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the
Purchaser as follows:
(a) except with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, it shall
record or cause a third party to record in the appropriate public recording
office for real property the assignments of the Mortgage Loans, assignments of
assignment of leases, rents and profits and the assignments of Mortgage and each
related UCC-2 and UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of
Mortgage File from the Seller to the Trustee in connection with the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the
recordation or filing of such assignments, assignments of Mortgage and financing
statements shall be paid by the Seller provided, however, that Seller and
Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Mortgage Company shall only be required to pay its pro rata share
of such costs and expenses with respect to The Shops at LaCantera Mortgage Loan
and the Whalers Village Mortgage Loan. If any such document or instrument is
lost or returned unrecorded or unfilled, as the case may be, because of a defect
therein, then the Seller shall prepare a substitute therefore or cure such
defect of cause such to be done, as the case may be, and the Seller shall
deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to the Trustee (or,
if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan), it being understood that the
delivery of such substitute or corrected documents by Seller or Xxxxxxx Sachs
Mortgage Company shall satisfy the delivery requirements of Seller hereunder
with respect to The Shops at LaCantera Mortgage Loan and the Whalers Village
Mortgage Loan except with respect to the Notes.
(b) it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser,
the Trustee or the Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of
the servicing of the Mortgage Loans to the Servicer, including effectuating the
transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the
Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders. Prior
to the date that a letter of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan is
transferred to the Servicer, the Seller will cooperate with the reasonable
requests of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with
effectuating a draw under such letter of credit as required under the terms of
the related Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(b)
shall not apply with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan;
(c) The Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data
with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CMSA Financial File and the CMSA Loan
Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Supplemental Servicer
Schedule it being understood that the delivery of such data by Seller or Xxxxxxx
Xxxxx Mortgage Company shall satisfy the delivery requirements of Seller
hereunder with respect to The Shops at LaCantera Mortgage Loan and the Whalers
Village Mortgage Loan except with respect to the Notes;
(d) if during the period of time that the Underwriters are required,
under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Offered
Certificates in connection with sales of the Offered Certificates by an
Underwriter or a dealer and the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of
undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to
the Closing Date, which event causes the Seller Information previously provided
to be incorrect or untrue, and which directly results in a material misstatement
or omission in the Prospectus Supplement, including Annex A, Annex B or Annex C
thereto and the CD-ROM and the Diskette included therewith (collectively, the
"Public Offering Documents"), and as a result the Underwriters' legal counsel
has determined that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Public Offering
Documents in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading,
or to make the Public Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the
Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to
the Seller Information at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably
necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Underwriters,
such amendments or supplements to the Public Offering Documents as may be
necessary so that the statements in the Public Offering Documents, as so amended
or supplemented, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus
is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law.
(All terms under this clause (c) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement
shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated March
7, 2006, among Seller, the Purchaser and the Dealers (the "Indemnification
Agreement" and, together with this Agreement, the "Operative Documents")); and
(e) for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser (or
with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan that is deposited into another

any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure and any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure set
forth next the Seller's name on Exhibit U and Exhibit V of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.

Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Document Defect or Material
Breach (including through a written notice given by any party hereto, as
provided above), the Seller, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the
Seller's discovery or receipt of notice of such Material Document Defect or
Material Breach, as the case may be (or, in the case of a Material Document
Defect or Material Breach relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a "qualified
mortgage" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions, not later than 90 days of
any party discovering such Material Document Defect or Material Breach provided
the Seller receives notice thereof in a timely manner), cure the same in all
material respects (which cure shall include payment of any Additional Trust Fund
Expenses associated therewith) or, if such Material Document Defect or Material
Breach, as the case may be, cannot be cured within such 90 day period,

Account); provided, however, that if (i) such Material Document Defect or
Material Breach is capable of being cured but not within such 90 day period,
(ii) such Material Document Defect or Material Breach is not related to any
Mortgage Loan's not being a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of the REMIC
Provisions and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with
the cure of such Material Document Defect or Material Breach within such 90 day
period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure
or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase (it being
understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller's receiving such
additional 90 day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer's Certificate to
the Trustee setting forth the reasons such Material Document Defect or Material
Breach is not capable of being cured within the initial 90 day period and what
actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating
that the Seller anticipates that such Material Document Defect or Material
Breach will be cured within such additional 90 day period); and provided,
further, that, if any such Material Document Defect is still not cured after the
initial 90 day period and any such additional 90 day period solely due to the
failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller
shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure and repurchase obligations in
respect of such Document Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee
every 30 days thereafter that the Document Defect is still in effect solely
because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the
Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions
being taken), except that no such deferral of cure or repurchase may continue
beyond the second anniversary of the Closing Date. Any such repurchase of a
Mortgage Loan shall be on a servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no
obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a breach or
a document defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Breach or Material
Document Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser.
(f) In connection with any repurchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to
this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that, subject
to Section 3.26 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee, the
Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the
repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the
repurchasing entity, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents
pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that
constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the
extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing entity or its designee in
the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously
assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of
assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such
documents were previously assigned to the Trustee; provided that such tender by
the Trustee shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a
Request for Release and an Officer's Certificate to the effect that the
requirements for repurchase have been satisfied.
(g) The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall
survive the execution and delivery and any termination of this Agreement and
shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any
restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or
the examination of the Mortgage Files.
(h) Each party hereby agrees to promptly notify the other party of
any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c). The
Seller's obligation to cure any breach or repurchase or substitute any affected
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy
available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller's
representations or warranties contained in this Section 6(c); provided, however,
that no limitation of remedy is implied with respect to the Seller's breach of
its obligation to cure, repurchase or substitute in accordance with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement.
(i) In the event that The Shops at LaCantera Mortgage Loan or the
Whalers Village Mortgage Loan is repurchased pursuant to this Section 6 and the
other related mortgage note is not repurchased by Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Mortgage Company
and such Mortgage Loan remains in the Trust, the Seller and the Purchaser hereby
agree that the provisions in Section 3.31 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall govern the servicing and administration of such Mortgage Loan, the
repurchased note, and the other related mortgage note not so repurchased, and
the Seller's and the Purchaser's right and obligations with respect thereto.

Trustee or the Custodian pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to
review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly
executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material
respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

EXHIBIT B
MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
(1) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan
set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is true and accurate in all
material respects as of the Cut-off Date and contains all information
required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained therein.
(2) Legal Compliance - Origination. The origination practices of the Seller
have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its
origination, such Mortgage Loan complied in all material respects with, or
was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating
to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such
representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any
matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in
this Exhibit B.
(3) Good Title; Conveyance. Immediately prior to the sale, transfer and
assignment to the Purchaser, the Seller had good and marketable title to,
and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan, and the Seller is
transferring such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens,
pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such
Mortgage Loan, other than the rights of the holder of a related Companion
Loan pursuant to a Co-Lender Agreement or a pooling and servicing
agreement. Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller will have validly and
effectively conveyed to the Purchaser all legal and beneficial interest in
and to such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any pledge, lien or security
interest, other than the rights of a holder of a Companion Loan pursuant
to a Co-Lender Agreement or pooling and servicing agreement.
(4) Future Advances. The proceeds of such Mortgage Loan have been fully
disbursed (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage
Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or
reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating
to leasing, repairs or other matters with respect to the Mortgaged
Property), and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder by
the mortgagee.
(5) Legal, Valid and Binding Obligation; Assignment of Leases. Each related
Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if contained in a document
separate from the Mortgage) and other agreement that evidences or secures
such Mortgage Loan and was executed in connection with such Mortgage Loan
by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor is the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the related Mortgagor (subject to any non-recourse
provisions therein and any state anti-deficiency or market value limit
deficiency legislation), enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
(i) that certain provisions contained in such Mortgage Loan documents are
or may be unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable state or
federal laws, but neither the application of any such laws to any such
provision nor the inclusion of any such provisions renders any of the
Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole and such Mortgage Loan
documents taken as a whole are enforceable to the extent necessary and
customary for the practical realization of the rights and benefits
afforded thereby and (ii) as such enforcement may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium,
redemption, liquidation or other laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally, or by general principles of equity
(regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law). The Assignment of Leases (as set forth in the Mortgage
or in a document separate from the related Mortgage and related to and
delivered in connection with each Mortgage Loan) establishes and creates a
valid and enforceable first priority assignment of, or a valid first
priority security interest in, the related Mortgagor's right to receive
payments due under all leases, subleases, licenses or other agreements
pursuant to which any Person is entitled to occupy, use or possess all or
any portion of the Mortgaged Property, subject to any license granted to
the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain
obligations of the lessor under such leases, and subject to the
limitations set forth above. The related Mortgage Note, Mortgage and
Assignment of Leases (if contained in a document separate from the
Mortgage) contain no provision limiting the right or ability of the Seller
to assign, transfer and convey the related Mortgage Loan to any other
Person.
(6) No Offset or Defense. Subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph
(5), as of the date of its origination there was, and as of the Cut-off
Date there is, no valid right of offset and no valid defense,
counterclaim, abatement or right to rescission with respect to any of the
related Mortgage Notes, Mortgage(s) or other agreements executed in
connection therewith, except in each case, with respect to the
enforceability of any provisions requiring the payment of default
interest, late fees, additional interest, prepayment premiums or yield
maintenance charges.
(7) Assignment of Mortgage and Assignment of Assignment of Leases. Subject to
the limitations set forth in paragraph (5), each assignment of Mortgage
and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller to the Trustee (or
in the case of a Non-Serviced Trust Loan, the assignment in favor of the
current holder of the mortgage) constitutes the legal, valid and binding
assignment from the Seller. Any assignment of a Mortgage and assignment of
Assignment of Leases are recorded (or have been submitted for recording)
in the applicable jurisdiction.
(8) Mortgage Lien. Each related Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first lien
on the related Mortgaged Property (and/or Ground Lease, if applicable),
subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (5) and the following
title exceptions (each such title exception, a "Title Exception", and
collectively, the "Title Exceptions"): (a) the lien of current real
property taxes, ground rents, water charges, sewer rents and assessments
not yet due and payable, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record, (c) the
exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in the
applicable Title Policy (described in paragraph (12) below) or appearing
of record, (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly
subject, (e) the right of tenants (whether under ground leases, space
leases or operating leases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property
and condominium declarations, (f) if such Mortgage Loan is
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with any other Mortgage Loan, the
lien of the Mortgage for such other Mortgage Loan and (g) if such Mortgage
Loan is part of a Whole Loan, the rights of the holder of the related
Companion Loan pursuant to a Co-Lender Agreement or pooling and servicing
agreement, none of which exceptions described in clauses (a) - (g) above,
individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with
(1) the current use of the Mortgaged Property, (2) the security intended
to be provided by such Mortgage, (3) the Mortgagor's ability to pay its
obligations under the Mortgage Loan when they become due or (4) the value
of the Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is free and clear of any
mechanics' or other similar liens or claims which are prior to or equal
with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are insured
against by a lender's title insurance policy. To the Seller's actual
knowledge no rights are outstanding that under applicable law could give
rise to any such lien that would be prior or equal to the lien of the
related Mortgage, unless such lien is bonded over, escrowed for or covered
by insurance.
(9) UCC Filings. If the related Mortgaged Property is operated as a
hospitality property, the Seller has filed or caused to be filed and/or
recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper
form for filing and recording), UCC Financing Statements in the
appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary at the time
of the origination of the Mortgage Loan to perfect a valid security
interest in all items of personal property reasonably necessary to operate
such Mortgaged Property owned by such Mortgagor and located on the related
Mortgaged Property (other than any personal property subject to a purchase
money security interest or a sale and leaseback financing arrangement as
permitted under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or any
other personal property leases applicable to such personal property), to
the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by
recording or filing, as the case may be. Subject to the limitations set
forth in paragraph (5), each related Mortgage (or equivalent document)
creates a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on the items of
personalty described above. No representation is made as to the perfection
of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent
that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing
of UCC Financing Statements are required in order to effect such
perfection.
(10) Taxes and Assessments. All real estate taxes and governmental assessments,
or installments thereof, which could be a lien on the related Mortgaged
Property and that prior to the Cut-off Date have become delinquent in
respect of each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of
funds in an amount sufficient to cover such payments has been established.
For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and
governmental assessments and installments thereof shall not be considered
delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or
penalties would first be payable thereon and (b) the date on which
enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing
authority.
(11) Condition of Mortgaged Property; No Condemnation. To the Seller's actual
knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in
connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the
Cut-off Date, (a) each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of
any material damage (other than deferred maintenance for which escrows
were established at origination) that would affect materially and
adversely the value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the
Mortgage Loan and (b) there was no proceeding pending for the total or
partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property.
(12) Title Insurance. The lien of each related Mortgage as a first priority
lien in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or in the
case of a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple Mortgaged Properties an
allocable portion thereof) is insured by an ALTA lender's title insurance
policy (or a binding commitment therefor), or its equivalent as adopted in
the applicable jurisdiction (the "Title Policy"), insuring the originator
of the Mortgage Loan, its successors and assigns, subject only to the
Title Exceptions; such originator or its successors or assigns is the
named insured of such policy; such policy is assignable without consent of
the insurer and will inure to the benefit of the Trustee as mortgagee of
record (or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Trust Loan, the holder of the
Mortgage); such policy, if issued, is in full force and effect and all
premiums thereon have been paid; no claims have been made under such
policy and the Seller has not done anything, by act or omission, and the
Seller has no actual knowledge of any matter, which would impair or
diminish the coverage of such policy. The insurer issuing such policy is
either (x) a nationally-recognized title insurance company or (y)
qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related
Mortgaged Property is located to the extent required. The Title Policy
contains no material exclusion for, or alternatively it insures (unless
such coverage is unavailable in the relevant jurisdiction) (a) access to a
public road or (b) against any loss due to encroachment of any material
portion of the improvements thereon.
(13) Insurance. As of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and to the actual
knowledge of the Seller, as of the Cut-off Date, all insurance coverage
required under the related Mortgage Loan documents was in full force and
effect. Each Mortgage Loan requires insurance in such amounts and covering
such risks as were customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and
multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of
property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property in the jurisdiction
in which such Mortgaged Property is located, including requirements for
(a) a fire and extended perils insurance policy, in an amount (subject to
a customary deductible) at least equal to the lesser of (i) the
replacement cost of improvements located on such Mortgaged Property, or
(ii) the initial principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (or in the case of
a Whole Loan, the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan), and in
any event, the amount necessary to prevent operation of any co-insurance
provisions, (b) except if such Mortgaged Property is operated as a mobile
home park, business interruption or rental loss insurance, in an amount at
least equal to 12 months of operations of the related Mortgaged Property
(or in the case of a Mortgaged Property without any elevator, 6 months),
(c) comprehensive general liability insurance against claims for personal
and bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the
related Mortgaged Property, in an amount customarily required by prudent
institutional lenders and (d) if such Mortgage Loan is secured by a
Mortgaged Property (other than a manufactured housing property) located in
"seismic zones" 3 or 4 in California, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Washington or
Arkansas, a seismic assessment by an independent third party provider was
conducted and if the seismic assessment (based on a 450-year lookback with
a 10% probability of exceedance in a 50-year period) revealed a probable
maximum loss equal to 20% or higher, earthquake insurance. To the actual
knowledge of the Seller, as of the Cut-off Date, all premiums due and
payable through the Closing Date have been paid and no notice of
termination or cancellation with respect to any such insurance policy has
been received by the Seller. Except for certain amounts not greater than
amounts which would be considered prudent by an institutional commercial
mortgage lender with respect to a similar Mortgage Loan and which are set
forth in the related Mortgage, the related Mortgage Loan documents require
that any insurance proceeds in respect of a casualty loss, will be applied
either (i) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related
Mortgaged Property or (ii) the reduction of the outstanding principal
balance of the Mortgage Loan, subject in either case to requirements with
respect to leases at the related Mortgaged Property and to other
exceptions customarily provided for by prudent institutional lenders for
similar loans. The insurance policies each contain a standard mortgagee
clause naming the Seller and its successors and assigns as loss payee or
additional insured, as applicable, and each insurance policy provides that
they are not terminable without 30 days prior written notice to the
mortgagee (or, with respect to non-payment, 10 days prior written notice
to the mortgagee) or such lesser period as prescribed by applicable law.
The loan documents for each Mortgage Loan (a) require that the Mortgagor
maintain insurance as described above or permit the mortgagee to require
that the Mortgagor maintain insurance as described above, and (b) permit
the mortgagee to purchase such insurance at the Mortgagor's expense if the
Mortgagor fails to do so. The insurer with respect to each policy is
qualified to write insurance in the relevant jurisdiction to the extent
required.
(14) No Material Default. Other than payments due but not yet 30 days or more
delinquent, (i) there is no material default, breach, violation or event
of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage or the related
Mortgage Note, and (ii) to the Seller's actual knowledge, there is no
event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the
passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure
period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration, provided, however, that this representation and warranty
does not address or otherwise cover any default, breach, violation or
event of acceleration (A) that specifically pertains to any matter
otherwise covered in this Exhibit B (including any schedule or exhibit
hereto), or (B) with respect to which: (1) the Seller has no actual
knowledge and (2) written notice of the discovery thereof is not delivered
to the Seller by the Trustee or the Master Servicer on or prior to the
date occurring twelve (12) months after the Closing Date. The Seller has
not waived any material default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration under such Mortgage or Mortgage Note, unless a written waiver
to that effect is contained in the related Mortgage File being delivered
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and pursuant to the terms
of the related Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and other documents
in the related Mortgage File, no Person or party other than the holder of
such Mortgage Note (or with respect to a Non-Serviced Trust Loan, the
applicable servicer as permitted by the applicable Lead PSA) may declare
any event of default or accelerate the related indebtedness under either
of such Mortgage or Mortgage Note.
(15) Payment Record. As of the Closing Date, each Mortgage Loan is not, and in
the prior 12 months (or since the date of origination if such Mortgage
Loan has been originated within the past 12 months), has not been, 30 days
or more past due in respect of any Scheduled Payment.
(16) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with
respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects, legal and have
met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for
conduit loan programs.
(17) Reserved.
(18) Qualified Mortgage. Each Mortgage Loan constitutes a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard
to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860G-2(f)(2) or 1.860G 2(a)(3) that
treats a defective obligation as a qualified mortgage, or any
substantially similar successor provision). Each Mortgage Loan is directly
secured by a Mortgage on a commercial property or a multifamily
residential property, and either (1) substantially all of the proceeds of
such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the portion of
such commercial or multifamily residential property that consists of an
interest in real property (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Sections 1.856-3(c) and 1.856-3(d)) and such interest in real property was
the only security for such Mortgage Loan as of the Testing Date (as
defined below), or (2) the fair market value of the interest in real
property which secures such Mortgage Loan was at least equal to 80% of the
principal amount of the Mortgage Loan (a) as of the Testing Date, or (b)
as of the Closing Date. For purposes of the previous sentence, (1) the
fair market value of the referenced interest in real property shall first
be reduced by (a) the amount of any lien on such interest in real property
that is senior to the Mortgage Loan, and (b) a proportionate amount of any
lien on such interest in real property that is on a parity with the
Mortgage Loan, and (2) the "Testing Date" shall be the date on which the
referenced Mortgage Loan was originated unless (a) such Mortgage Loan was
modified after the date of its origination in a manner that would cause a
"significant modification" of such Mortgage Loan within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(b), and (b) such "significant
modification" did not occur at a time when such Mortgage Loan was in
default or when default with respect to such Mortgage Loan was reasonably
foreseeable. However, if the referenced Mortgage Loan has been subjected
to a "significant modification" after the date of its origination and at a
time when such Mortgage Loan was not in default or when default with
respect to such Mortgage Loan was not reasonably foreseeable, the Testing
Date shall be the date upon which the latest such "significant
modification" occurred. Each yield maintenance payment and prepayment
premium payable under the Mortgage Loans is a "customary prepayment
penalty" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-1(b)(2). As of the Closing Date, the related Mortgaged Property, if
acquired in connection with the default or imminent default of such
Mortgage Loan, would constitute "foreclosure property" within the meaning
of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code.
(19) Environmental Conditions and Compliance. One or more environmental site
assessments or updates thereof were performed by an environmental
consulting firm independent of the Seller or the Seller's affiliates with
respect to each related Mortgaged Property during the 18-months preceding
the origination of the related Mortgage Loan, and the Seller, having made
no independent inquiry other than to review the report(s) prepared in
connection with the assessment(s) referenced herein, has no actual
knowledge and has received no notice of any material and adverse
environmental condition or circumstance affecting such Mortgaged Property
that was not disclosed in such report(s). If any such environmental report
identified any Recognized Environmental Condition (REC), as that term is
defined in the Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase
I Environmental Site Assessment Process Designation: E 1527-00, as
recommended by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), with
respect to the related Mortgaged Property and the same have not been
subsequently addressed in all material respects, then either (i) an escrow
greater than or equal to 100% of the amount identified as necessary by the
environmental consulting firm to address the REC is held by the Seller for
purposes of effecting same (and the Mortgagor has covenanted in the
Mortgage Loan documents to perform such work), (ii) a responsible party,
other than the Mortgagor, having financial resources reasonably estimated
to be adequate to address the REC is required to take such actions or is
liable for the failure to take such actions, if any, with respect to such
circumstances or conditions as have been required by the applicable
governmental regulatory authority or any environmental law or regulation,
(iii) the Mortgagor has provided an environmental insurance policy, (iv)
an operations and maintenance plan has been or will be implemented or (v)
such conditions or circumstances were investigated further and a qualified
environmental consulting firm recommended no further investigation or
remediation.
(20) Customary Mortgage Provisions. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage and
Assignment of Leases (if contained in a document separate from the
Mortgage) contain customary and, subject to the limitations and exceptions
set forth in paragraph (5) and applicable state law, enforceable
provisions for comparable mortgaged properties similarly situated such as
to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the
practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of
the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by
judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure.
(21) Bankruptcy. No Mortgagor is a debtor in, and no Mortgaged Property is the
subject of, any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding;
provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover
any such bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or comparable proceeding
with respect to which: (1) the Seller has no actual knowledge and (2)
written notice of the discovery thereof is not delivered to the Seller by
the Trustee or the Master Servicer on or prior to the date occurring
twelve months after the Closing Date.
(22) Whole Loan; No Equity Participation, Contingent Interest or Negative
Amortization. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a
Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan. None of the Mortgage Loans
contain any equity participation, preferred equity component or shared
appreciation feature by the mortgagee nor does any Mortgage Loan provide
the mortgagee with any contingent or additional interest in the form of
participation in the cash flow of the related Mortgaged Property.
(23) Transfers and Subordinate Debt. Subject to certain exceptions which are
customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage
lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to the
related Mortgaged Property, each Mortgage Loan contains a "due on sale" or
other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid
principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the
holder of the Mortgage and complying with the requirements of the related
Mortgage Loan documents, (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any
controlling or majority equity interest in the related Mortgagor, is
directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related
to (i) family and estate planning transfers, (ii) transfers to certain
affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents (iii)
transfers of less than a controlling interest in a Mortgagor, or (iv) a
substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraph
(26) below, or, (v) as set forth on Exhibit B-23-1 by reason of any
mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage
Loan, or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a
subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged
Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any
subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the
related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) debt in the ordinary course of
business or (iii) any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and
cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as set forth on Exhibit
B-23-2. Except as related to (a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), above or
b(i), (ii) or (iii) above, no Mortgage Loan may be assigned to another
entity without the mortgagee's consent. The Mortgage or other Mortgage
Loan document provides that to the extent any Rating Agency Fees are
incurred in connection with the review and consent to any transfer or
encumbrance the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment.
(24) Waivers and Modification. Except as set forth in the related Mortgage
File, the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been
waived, modified, altered, satisfied, impaired, canceled, subordinated or
rescinded in any manner which materially interferes with the security
intended to be provided by such Mortgage. Exhibit B-24 identifies each
Mortgage Loan as to which, since the latest date on which the final due
diligence materials were delivered for such Mortgage Loan to ING Clarion
Capital, LLC, there has been, given, made or consented to an alteration,
modification or assumption of the terms of the related Mortgage Note,
Mortgage(s) or any related loan agreement and/or lock-box agreement and/or
as to which, since such date, there has been a waiver other than as
related to routine operational matters or minor covenants.
(25) Inspection. Each related Mortgaged Property was inspected by or on behalf
of the related originator or an affiliate of the originator during the 12
month period prior to the related origination date.
(26) Releases of Mortgaged Property. (A) Since origination, no material portion
of the related Mortgaged Property has been released from the lien of the
related Mortgage in any manner which materially and adversely affects the
value of the Mortgage Loan or materially interferes with the security
intended to be provided by such Mortgage; and (B) the terms of the related
Mortgage Loan documents do not permit the release of any portion of the
Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (i) in
consideration of payment in full (or in certain cases, the allocated loan
amount) therefor, (ii) in connection with the substitution of all or a
portion of the Mortgaged Property in exchange for delivery of "government
securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, (iii) where such portion to be released
was not considered material for purposes of underwriting the Mortgage Loan
and such release was contemplated at origination, (iv) conditioned on the
satisfaction of certain underwriting and other requirements, including
payment of a release price representing adequate consideration for such
Mortgaged Property or the portion thereof to be released, or (v) as set
forth on Exhibit B-26, in connection with the substitution of a
replacement property in compliance with REMIC Provisions.
(27) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller's actual knowledge, based upon a
letter from governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an endorsement to
the related title policy, or other due diligence considered reasonable by
prudent commercial mortgage lenders taking into account the location of
the Mortgaged Property, as of the date of origination of such Mortgage
Loan and as of the Cut-off Date, there are no material violations of any
applicable zoning ordinances, building codes and land laws applicable to
the Mortgaged Property or the use and occupancy thereof which (i) are not
insured by the Title Policy or a law and ordinance insurance policy or
(ii) would have a material adverse effect on the value, operation or net
operating income of the Mortgaged Property.
(28) Improvements. To the Seller's actual knowledge based on the Title Policy
or surveys obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage
Loan, none of the material improvements which were included for the
purposes of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged
Property at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan lies outside
of the boundaries and building restriction lines of such property (except
Mortgaged Properties which are legal non-conforming uses), to an extent
which would have a material adverse affect on the value of the Mortgaged
Property or related Mortgagor's use and operation of such Mortgaged
Property (unless affirmatively covered by the related Title Policy) and no
improvements on adjoining properties encroached upon such Mortgaged
Property to any material and adverse extent (unless affirmatively covered
by the related Title Policy).
(29) Single Purpose Entity. With respect to each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-off
Date Balance (A) in excess of $5,000,000 the related Mortgagor has
covenanted in its organizational documents and/or the Mortgage Loan
documents to own no significant asset other than the related Mortgaged
Property and assets incidental to its ownership and operation of such
Mortgaged Property, and to hold itself out as being a legal entity,
separate and apart from any other Person; and (B) in excess of
$20,000,000, the representation and warranty in (A) above is true and the
related Mortgagor (or if the Mortgagor is a limited partnership or a
multi-member limited liability company, the special purpose general
partner or special purpose managing member, as applicable, of the related
Mortgagor), has at least one independent director, and the related
Mortgagor has delivered a non-consolidation opinion of counsel. For each
Mortgage Loan for which the related Mortgagor has covenanted in its
organizational documents and/or the Mortgage Loan documents to own no
significant asset other than the related Mortgaged Property and assets
incidental to its ownership and operation of such Mortgaged Property, at
the time of origination of the Mortgage Loan, to the Seller's actual
knowledge, the Mortgagor was in compliance with such requirements.
(30) Advance of Funds. (A) After origination, the Seller has not, directly or
indirectly, advanced any funds to the Mortgagor, other than pursuant to
the related Mortgage Loan documents; and (B) to the Seller's actual
knowledge, no funds have been received from any Person other than the
Mortgagor, for or on account of payments due on the Mortgage Note.
(31) Litigation or Other Proceedings. As of the date of origination and, to the
Seller's actual knowledge, as of the Cut-off Date, there was no pending
action, suit or proceeding, or governmental investigation of which it has
received notice, against the Mortgagor or the related Mortgaged Property
the adverse outcome of which could reasonably be expected to materially
and adversely affect (i) such Mortgagor's ability to pay its obligations
under the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the security intended to be provided by the
Mortgage Loan documents or (iii) the current use of the Mortgaged
Property.
(32) Trustee Under Deed of Trust. As of the date of origination, and, to the
Seller's actual knowledge, as of the Cut-off Date, if the related Mortgage
is a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to
serve as such, has either been properly designated and serving under such
Mortgage or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and
applicable law.
(33) Usury. The Mortgage Loan and the interest contracted for (exclusive of any
default interest, late charges, Yield Maintenance Charge or prepayment
premiums) is a fixed rate, and complied as of the date of origination
with, or is exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and
other requirements pertaining to usury.
(34) Other Collateral. Except with respect to the Companion Loan of any Whole
Loan or any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted
with another Mortgage Loan, to the Seller's knowledge, the related
Mortgage Note is not secured by any collateral that secures a loan that is
not a Mortgage Loan.
(35) Flood Insurance. If the improvements on the Mortgaged Property are located
in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Mortgagor is
required to maintain or the mortgagee maintains, flood insurance with
respect to such improvements and such policy is in full force and effect.
(36) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments required to be deposited
with the Seller or its agent in accordance with the Mortgage Loan
documents have been (or by the Closing Date will be) so deposited, are in
the possession of or under the control of the Seller or its agent (or,
with respect to a Non-Serviced Trust Loan, in the possession of or under
the control of the Lead Trustee or its agent under the applicable Lead
PSA), and there are no deficiencies in connection therewith.
(37) Licenses and Permits. To the Seller's actual knowledge, based on the due
diligence customarily performed in the origination of comparable mortgage
loans by prudent commercial lending institutions considering the related
geographic area and properties comparable to the related Mortgaged
Property, (i) as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, the
related Mortgagor, the related lessee, franchisor or operator was in
possession of all material licenses, permits and authorizations then
required for use of the related Mortgaged Property, and, (ii) as of the
Cut-off Date, the Seller has no actual knowledge that the related
Mortgagor, the related lessee, franchisor or operator was not in
possession of such licenses, permits and authorizations.
(38) Organization of Mortgagors; Affiliation with other Mortgagors. With
respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the
organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in
connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an
entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of
America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and
cross defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, no Mortgage Loan has a
Mortgagor that is an affiliate of another Mortgagor.
(39) Fee Simple Interest. Except with respect to the Mortgage Loans listed on
Exhibit B-39, the Mortgage Loan is secured in whole or in material part by
the fee simple interest in the related Mortgaged Property.
(40) Recourse. Each Mortgage Loan is non-recourse to the related Mortgagor
except that the Mortgagor and a natural person (or an entity with assets
other than an interest in the Mortgagor) as guarantor have agreed to be
liable with respect to losses incurred due to (i) fraud and/or other
intentional material misrepresentation, (ii) misapplication or
misappropriation of rents collected in advance or received by the related
Mortgagor after the occurrence of an event of default and not paid to the
mortgagee or applied to the Mortgaged Property in the ordinary course of
business, (iii) misapplication or conversion by the Mortgagor of insurance
proceeds or condemnation awards or (iv) breach of the environmental
covenants in the related Mortgage Loan documents.
(41) Access; Tax Parcels. Each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent
to a dedicated road, or has access to an irrevocable easement permitting
ingress and egress, (b) is served by public utilities, water and sewer (or
septic facilities) and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels.
(42) Financial Statements. Each Mortgage requires the Mortgagor to provide the
mortgagee with operating statements and rent rolls on an annual (or more
frequent) basis or upon written request.
(43) Defeasance. If the Mortgage Loan is a Defeasance Loan, the Mortgage Loan
documents (A) permit defeasance (1) no earlier than two years after the
Closing Date, and (2) only with substitute collateral constituting
"government securities" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-2(a)(8)(i) in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments
under the Mortgage Note through the related maturity date (or first day of
the open period) and the balloon payment that would be due on such date,
(B) require the delivery of (or otherwise contain provisions pursuant to
which the mortgagee can require delivery of) (i) an opinion to the effect
that such mortgagee has a first priority perfected security interest in
the defeasance collateral, (ii) an accountant's certification as to the
adequacy of the defeasance collateral to make all payments required under
the related Mortgage Loan through the related maturity date (or first day
of the open period) and the balloon payment that would be due on such
date, (iii) an Opinion of Counsel that the defeasance complies with all
applicable REMIC Provisions, and (iv) assurances from the Rating Agencies
that the defeasance will not result in the withdrawal, downgrade or
qualification of the ratings assigned to the Certificates and (C) contain
provisions pursuant to which the mortgagee can require the Mortgagor to
pay expenses associated with a defeasance (including rating agencies'
fees, accountant's fees and attorneys' fees). Such Mortgage Loan was not
originated with the intent to collateralize a REMIC offering with
obligations that are not real estate mortgages.
(44) Authorization in Jurisdiction. To the extent required under applicable law
and necessary for the enforcement of the Mortgage Loan, as of the date of
origination and at all times it held the Mortgage Loan, the originator of
such Mortgage Loan was authorized to do business in the jurisdiction in
which the related Mortgaged Property is located.
(45) Capital Contributions. Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has
any obligation to make any capital contributions to the Mortgagor under
the Mortgage Loan documents.
(46) Subordinate Debt. Except with respect to the Companion Loan of any Whole
Loan or any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted
with another Mortgage Loan, none of the Mortgaged Properties are
encumbered by any lien securing the payment of money junior to, of equal
priority with, or superior to, the lien of the related Mortgage (other
than Title Exceptions, taxes, assessments and contested mechanics and
materialmens liens that become payable after the Cut-off Date).
(47) Ground Lease Representations and Warranties. With respect to each Mortgage
Loan secured by a leasehold interest (except with respect to any Mortgage
Loan also secured by the corresponding fee interest in the related
Mortgaged Property), the Seller represents and warrants the following with
respect to the related Ground Lease:
(1) Such Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been or will be
duly recorded and such Ground Lease permits the interest of the lessee
thereunder to be encumbered by the related Mortgage or, if consent of the
lessor thereunder is required, it has been obtained prior to the Closing
Date.
(2) Upon the foreclosure of the Mortgage Loan (or acceptance of a
deed in lieu thereof), the Mortgagor's interest in such Ground Lease is
assignable to the mortgagee and its assigns without the consent of the
lessor thereunder (or, if any such consent is required, it has been
obtained prior to the Closing Date).
(3) Subject to the limitations on enforceability set forth in
Paragraph 5, such Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or
terminated without the prior written consent of the mortgagee and any such
action without such consent is not binding on the mortgagee, its
successors or assigns, except that termination or cancellation without
such consent may be binding on the mortgagee if (i) an event of default
occurs under the Ground Lease, (ii) notice is provided to the mortgagee
and (iii) such default is curable by the mortgagee as provided in the
Ground Lease but remains uncured beyond the applicable cure period.
(4) Such Ground Lease is in full force and effect and other than
payments due but not yet 30 days or more delinquent, (i) there is no
material default, and (ii) to the actual knowledge of the Seller, there is
no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration
of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default under
such Ground Lease; provided, however, that this representation and
warranty does not address or otherwise cover any default, breach,
violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to any
matter otherwise covered by any other representation and warranty made by
the Seller elsewhere in this Exhibit B or in any of the exceptions to the
representations and warranties in Schedule A hereto.
(5) The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and
the lessee (i) requires the lessor to give notice of any default by the
lessee to the mortgagee and (ii) provides that no notice given is
effective against the mortgagee unless a copy has been delivered to the
mortgagee in the manner described in the ground lease or ancillary
agreement.
(6) The Ground Lease (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances
superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, other than the
ground lessor's fee interest and Title Exceptions or (ii) is subject to a
subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the
mortgagee on the lessor's fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is
subject.
(7) The mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including,
where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the
lessee under the ground lease) to cure any curable default under such
Ground Lease after receipt of notice of such default before the lessor
thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease.
(8) Such Ground Lease has an original term (together with any
extension options, whether or not currently exercised, set forth therein
all of which can be exercised by the mortgagee if the mortgagee acquires
the lessee's rights under the Ground Lease) that extends not less than 20
years beyond the Stated Maturity Date or if such Mortgage Loan is fully
amortizing, extends not less than 10 years after the amortization term for
the Mortgage Loan.
(9) Under the terms of the Ground Lease and the related Mortgage
Loan documents (including, without limitation, any estoppel or consent
letter received by the mortgagee from the lessor), taken together, any
related insurance proceeds or condemnation award (other than de minimis
amounts for minor casualties or in respect of a total or substantially
total loss or taking) will be applied either to the repair or restoration
of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the mortgagee or a
trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such
proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment or
defeasance of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan,
together with any accrued interest (except in cases where a different
allocation would not be viewed as commercially unreasonable by any
commercial mortgage lender, taking into account the relative duration of
the ground lease and the related Mortgage and the ratio of the market
value of the related Mortgaged Property to the outstanding principal
balance of such Mortgage Loan).
(10) The Ground Lease does not restrict the use of the related
Mortgaged Property by the lessee or its successors or assigns in a manner
that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the
related mortgage.
(11) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting
that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by a prudent commercial
mortgage lender.
(12) The ground lessor under such Ground Lease is required to enter
into a new lease upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason,
including the rejection of the Ground Lease in bankruptcy.

to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign
organization in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or
lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such
qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a
material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations thereunder,
and the Seller has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution,
delivery and performance of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the
Indemnification Agreement (collectively, the "Operative Documents"), and has
duly executed and delivered the Operative Documents, and has the power and
authority to execute, deliver and perform under the Operative Documents and all
the transactions contemplated thereby, including, but not limited to, the power
and authority to sell, assign, transfer, set over and convey the Mortgage Loans
in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement;
(b) Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of each
Operative Document by each party thereto other than the Seller, each Operative
Document will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller,
enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally,
and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability
is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);
(c) The execution and delivery of each Operative Document by the
Seller and the performance of its obligations thereunder will not conflict with
any provision of any law or regulation to which the Seller is subject, or
conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the
terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Seller's organizational documents
or any agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is
bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Seller, or result in the
creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller's assets or property, in
each case which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller
to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents;
(d) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending
or, to the Seller's knowledge, threatened against the Seller in any court or by
or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would
materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the
ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by each
Operative Document;
(e) The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or decree
of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal
or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would
materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations
of the Seller or its properties or might have consequences that would materially
and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;
(f) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or
governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and
performance by the Seller of, or compliance by the Seller with, each Operative
Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, other
than those which have been obtained by the Seller;
(g) To our knowledge, considered in light of our understanding of
applicable law and the experience we have gained through our practice, nothing
has come to our attention in the course of our review of the Prospectus and
Prospectus Supplement in relation to the sale of the Mortgage Loans, which
causes us to believe that (i) the Prospectus, at the date thereof or at the date
hereof, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, which untrue statement or omission arises out of, or is
based upon, information concerning the Mortgage Loans set forth in the
Prospectus, or (ii) the Prospectus Supplement, at the date thereof or at the
date hereof, contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state
any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, which untrue statement or omission arises out
of, or is based upon, information concerning the Mortgage Loans set forth in the
Prospectus Supplement, it being understood that we express no view as to any
information incorporated by reference in the Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement
or as to the adequacy or accuracy of the financial, numerical, statistical or
quantitative information included in the Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement.
(h) We hereby advise you that, in the course of the representation
referred to above and our examination of the time of sale information,
considered in light of our understanding of applicable law and the experience we
have gained through our practice, no facts came to our attention that cause us
to believe that as of the time of sale, the time of sale information (taken as a
whole) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; it being
understood that we express no view as to (1) any blanks or bracketed items in
the time of sale information for pricing terms, (2) any information incorporated
by reference in the time of sale information or (3) the adequacy or accuracy of
(i) any financial, numerical, statistical or computational information included
in or omitted from the time of sale information or (ii) any information
contained in or omitted from any computer disk, CD-ROM or other electronic media
accompanying the time of sale information.
