THIS TRUST AND SERVICING AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is dated as of December 29, 2021, among Xxxxx Fargo Commercial Mortgage Securities, Inc. (together with its successors-in-interest, the “Depositor”), Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Servicer, Situs Holdings, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

Terms not defined in this Introductory Statement shall have the meanings specified in Article 1 hereof.

Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association (together with its successors-in-interest, “WFB”), Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Bank, N.A. (together with its successors-in-interest, “MSBNA”), Citi Real Estate Funding Inc. (together with its successors-in-interest, “CREFI”) and DBR Investments Co. Limited (“DBRI”), originated a ten-year, fixed-rate, interest-only mortgage loan (the “Whole Loan”) pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of December 10, 2021 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), by WFB, MSBNA, CREFI and DBRI as lenders, and BP/CGCenter I LLC and BP/CGCenter II LLC, each a Delaware limited liability company (individually or collectively, as the context may require, and together with their respective successors-in-interest and permitted assigns, the “Borrower”).

The Whole Loan consists of (a) a portion that has an unpaid principal balance as of the Cut-off Date of $426,700,000 (the “Mortgage Loan”), and is evidenced by the promissory notes designated as Note A-1-S1, Note A-2-S1, Note A-3-S1, Note A-4-S1, Note B-1, Note B-2, Note B-3 and Note B-4 (as the same may hereafter be amended, restated, replaced, extended, renewed, supplemented, consolidated, severed, split or otherwise modified, the “Trust Notes”), and (b) portions that have an aggregate unpaid principal balance as of the Cut-off Date of $573,300,000 (“Companion Loan”), and are evidenced by the promissory notes designated as Note A-1-C1, Note A-1-C2, Note A-1-C3, Note A-1-C4, Note A-2-C1, Note A-2-C2, Note A-2-C3, Note A-2-C4, Note A-3-C1, Note A-3-C2, Note A-3-C3, Note A-3-C4, Note A-4-C1, Note A-4-C2, Note A-4-C3 and Note A-4-C4 (as the same may hereafter be amended, restated, replaced, extended, renewed, supplemented, consolidated, severed, split or otherwise modified, the “Companion Notes”). The Trust Notes and the Companion Notes are collectively referred to herein as the “Notes” and, each, as a “Note”.

The Mortgage Loan was sold and assigned by WFB, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Mortgage Capital Holdings LLC (“MSMCH”), CREFI and German American Capital Corporation (“GACC”) (collectively, in such capacity, the “Mortgage Loan Sellers”) to the Depositor pursuant to a mortgage loan purchase agreement, dated as of December 17, 2021 (the “Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement”), among the Mortgage Loan Sellers and the Depositor. The Companion Loans are not part of the Trust Fund. The relative rights of the respective lenders in respect of the Mortgage Loan are set forth in a co-lender agreement dated as of December 10, 2021 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Co-Lender Agreement”), among the holders of the Trust Notes and the holders of the Companion Loan Notes. From and after the Closing Date, the entire Mortgage Loan is to be serviced and administered in accordance with this Agreement.

As provided for herein, the Certificate Administrator shall elect or shall cause elections to be made to treat designated portions of the Trust Fund for federal income tax purposes as two separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC” and, each, a “Trust REMIC”). Each Class of Regular Certificates will represent a single Class of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, as further described herein. Each Class of Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests will represent a single class of “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier-REMIC as further described herein. The Class R Certificates will evidence the sole Class of “residual interests” in each of the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions under federal income tax law.

In exchange for the Mortgage Loan and the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests, the Trust will issue to the Depositor the Class A, Class X, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates (collectively, the “Non-Retained Certificates”) and the RR Interest, the Class R Certificates (together with the Non-Retained Certificates and the RR Interest, the “Certificates”), which Certificates in the aggregate will evidence the entire ownership interest in the Trust. The Trust Fund consists principally of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage, the Loan Documents and the Co-Lender Agreement (exclusive of the rights of the Companion Loan Holders thereunder) and all payments under, and proceeds of, the Mortgage Loan from and after the Cut-off Date.

The Depositor intends to sell the Certificates (other than the RR Interest) to the Initial Purchasers, and the Depositor intends to sell the RR Interest to Xxxxx Fargo, MSBNA, DBRI and CREFI, in an offering exempt from the registration requirements of the federal securities laws.

UPPER-TIER REMIC

As further described in Section 2.10, the Class A, Class X, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates and the RR Interest will evidence “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Class UT-R Interest will constitute the sole Class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC created hereunder, and will be evidenced by the Class R Certificates. The following table sets forth the class designation, the Pass-Through Rate and the aggregate principal balance of each Class of Principal Balance Certificates (each, the “Original Certificate Balance”) or the initial notional balance of the Class X Certificates (the “Original Notional Amount”), as applicable, for each Class of Certificates and the Class UT-R Interest comprising the interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC created hereunder:

Class Designation	Pass-Through Rate (per annum)	Original Certificate Balance or Notional Amount
Class A	2.61800%	$124,545,000
Class X	⁽¹⁾	$168,530,000⁽¹⁾
Class B	⁽²⁾	$43,985,000
Class C	⁽²⁾	$97,850,000
Class D	⁽²⁾	$109,250,000
Class E	⁽²⁾	$29,735,000
RR Interest	⁽³⁾	$21,335,000
Class R	None⁽⁴⁾	None⁽⁴⁾

-2-

(1)

The Class X Certificates will not have a Certificate Balance and will not be entitled to receive distributions of principal. Interest will accrue on such Class at the Class X Pass-Through Rate on the Notional Amount thereof. The Notional Amount of the Class X Certificates will be equal to the aggregate of the Certificate Balances of the Class A and Class B Certificates. The Class X Pass-Through Rate for any Certificate Interest Accrual Period is the weighted average of the Class X Strip Rates for the Class A and Class B Certificates.

(2)

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to each of the Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates will be a per annum rate equal to the weighted average of the Net Trust Note Rates. During the initial Certificate Interest Accrual Period, it is expected that the Pass-Through Rate for the Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates will each equal approximately 2.77546%.

(3)

Although it does not have a specified Pass-Through Rate, the effective interest rate of the RR Interest (the “RR Interest Rate”) for any Distribution Date will be a per annum rate equal to the weighted average of the Net Trust Note Rates.

(4)

The Class UT-R Interest (evidenced by the Class R Certificates) will not have a Certificate Balance, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Yield Maintenance Premiums. Any Aggregate Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier Distribution Account, after all required distributions under this Agreement have been made to each other Class of Certificates and the Class LT-R Interest, will be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class UT-R Interest.

LOWER-TIER REMIC

The Class LA, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LE and Class LRRI Uncertificated Interests will evidence “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Class LT-R Interest will constitute the sole Class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder and will be evidenced by the Class R Certificates. The following table sets forth the initial Lower-Tier Principal Amounts and Pass-Through Rates for the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests and the Class LT-R Interest comprising the interests in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder:

Class Designation	Pass-Through Rate/RR Interest Rate	Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount
Class LA	⁽¹⁾	$124,545,000
Class LB	⁽¹⁾	$168,530,000
Class LC	⁽¹⁾	$43,985,000
Class LD	⁽¹⁾	$97,850,000
Class LE	⁽¹⁾	$109,250,000
Class LRRI	⁽¹⁾	$29,735,000
Class LT-R	None	None⁽²⁾

⁽¹⁾

For any Distribution Date, the Pass-Through Rate for each of these Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests (other than the Class LRRI Uncertificated Interest) shall be the weighted average of the Net Trust Note Rates of the Trust Notes for such Distribution Date, or in the case of the Class LRRI Uncertificated Interest, the RR Interest Rate as described below.

⁽²⁾

The Class LT-R Interest (evidenced by the Class R Certificates) will not have a Certificate Balance, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Yield Maintenance Default Premiums. Any Aggregate Available Funds constituting assets remaining in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account after distributing the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LT-R Interest (but only to the extent of the Aggregate Available Funds for such Distribution Date, if any, remaining in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account).

-3-

The foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash from the Mortgage Loan to flow through to the Upper-Tier REMIC as cash flow on a REMIC regular interest, without creating any shortfall, actual or potential (other than for credit losses), to any REMIC regular interest. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from such intention, the parties identifying such ambiguity shall notify the other parties hereto and the parties involved will resolve such ambiguities to accomplish the intended result and will to the extent necessary rectify any drafting errors or seek clarification to the structure without Certificateholder approval (but with guidance of counsel) to accomplish such intention, including, to the extent necessary, making any amendments in accordance with Section 11.1 of this Agreement.

All covenants and agreements made by the Depositor herein are for the benefit and security of the Certificateholders and the Trustee as Holder of the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests. The Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee are entering into this Agreement, and the Trustee is accepting the trusts created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.

If the Depositor cannot deliver, or cause to be delivered, any of the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (ii)(B), (C) and (I) of Section 2.1(b) with evidence of filing or recording thereon (if intended to be recorded or filed), solely because of a delay caused by the public filing or recording office where such document or instrument has been delivered for

-61-

filing or recordation, the delivery requirements of Section 2.1 shall be deemed to have been satisfied on a provisional basis as of the Delivery Date as to such non-delivered document or instrument, and such non-delivered document or instrument shall be deemed to have been included in the Mortgage File, if a duplicate original or a photocopy of such non-delivered document or instrument (certified by the applicable public filing or recording office, the applicable title insurance company or the Mortgage Loan Sellers to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for filing or recording) is delivered to the Custodian on or before the Delivery Date, and either the original of such non-delivered document or instrument, or a photocopy thereof (certified by the appropriate county recorder’s office, in the case of the documents and/or instruments referred to in clause (ii)(B), (C) and (I) of Section 2.1(b) to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording), with evidence of filing or recording thereon, is delivered to the Custodian within 180 days of the Closing Date (or within such longer period, not to exceed 18 months, after the Closing Date as the Custodian shall consent to so long as the Depositor provides a certification in writing to the Custodian no less often than every 90 days that it is attempting in good faith to obtain from the appropriate public filing office or county recorder’s office such original or photocopy).

(c) Upon the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall deliver a final exception report as to any remaining documents that are not in the Mortgage File, whereupon, within 90 days, the Depositor shall either: (i) cause such document deficiency to be cured; or (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Mortgage Loan Sellers to repurchase the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement if such exception is a Material Document Defect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defect (except for a Defect with respect to the documents described in clause (i) of Section 2.1(b) and the documents described in clauses (ii)(B) and (C) of Section 2.1(b)) or a Defect that relates to the Mortgage Loan being other than a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3)) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which a Defect exists is required in connection with (A) an imminent enforcement of the Lender’s rights or remedies under the Mortgage Loan; (B) defending any claim asserted by the Borrower or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan; (C) establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan; or (D) any immediate significant servicing obligations, including without limitation, making a claim under a title policy. The Trustee’s sole remedy against any Mortgage Loan Sellers in connection with a Material Document Defect is to enforce the repurchase claim in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(d) If the Servicer or the Special Servicer (i) receives a Repurchase Request (the receiving Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, the “Repurchase Request Recipient” with respect to such Repurchase Request); or (ii) receives any withdrawal of a Repurchase Request by the Person making such Repurchase Request (a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal”) or such a Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal is forwarded to the Servicer or Special Servicer by another party hereto, then the Repurchase Request Recipient shall deliver notice of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal (each, a “Rule 15Ga-1 Notice”) to the Depositor, the Companion Loan Holders and the Mortgage Loan Sellers, in each case within ten (10) Business Days from such party’s receipt thereof. Each Rule 15Ga-1 Notice may be delivered by electronic means.

A Repurchase Request Recipient shall not be required to provide any information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines.

In the event that the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, then such party shall promptly forward such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal to the Servicer (or to the Special Servicer, if a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing), and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal” under Section 2.2 of this Agreement relating to the BXP Trust 2021-601L, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2021-601L requiring action by you as the recipient of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal thereunder.” Upon receipt of such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, such party shall be deemed to be the Repurchase Request Recipient of such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal, and such party shall comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.2(d) with respect to such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal.

If the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator receives notice or has knowledge of a withdrawal of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal of which notice has been previously received or given, and such notice was not received from or copied to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, then such party shall promptly give notice of such Repurchase Request Withdrawal to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer and the Special Servicer are permitted, at their own expense, or to the extent that a particular expense is provided herein to be an Advance or a Trust Fund Expense, at the expense of the Trust, to utilize other agents or attorneys typically used by

servicers of mortgage loans underlying commercial mortgage-backed securities in performing each of their obligations under this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein, each of the initial Servicer and the initial Special Servicer may delegate certain of its duties and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. Such delegation shall not be considered a sub-servicing agreement hereunder, and the requirements and obligations set forth herein applicable to sub-servicing agreements, sub-servicers or Servicing Function Participants shall not be applicable to such arrangement. Notwithstanding any such delegation, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall remain obligated and liable for the performance of their respective obligations and duties under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if each alone were servicing and administering the Whole Loan as required hereby.

(f) The parties hereto acknowledge that the Whole Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the Co-Lender Agreement and recognize the respective rights and obligations of the Trust, as holder of the Mortgage Loan, and of the Companion Loan Holders as holders of the Companion Loans under the Co-Lender Agreement, including: (i) with respect to the allocation of collections on or in respect of the Whole Loan, and the making of remittances, to the Trust, as holder of the Mortgage Loan, and to the Companion Loan Holders as holders of the Companion Loans; (ii) with respect to the allocation of expenses and losses relating to the Whole Loan to the Trust, as holder of the Mortgage Loan, and to the Companion Loan Holders as holders of the Companion Loans and (iii) to the extent provided for under the Co-Lender Agreement, the consultation rights of the Companion Loan Holders.

In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Co-Lender Agreement, the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement shall control with respect to the Whole Loan.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at no time shall the Servicer or the Trustee be required to make any advance of delinquent scheduled monthly payments of principal or interest with respect to any Companion Loan or any Administrative Advance with respect to any Companion Loan.

(h) To the extent required under the Loan Documents or the Co-Lender Agreement, the Servicer shall, on behalf of the Lender, maintain a Notes register for the Whole Loan and at the request of the Special Servicer, provide a copy of the register.

The Collection Account must be an Eligible Account maintained with an Eligible Institution. The Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified and available funds the following amounts representing payments and collections received or made during each Collection Period on or with respect to the Whole Loan (and not otherwise required to be deposited in the Reserve Accounts):

(b) Funds in the Collection Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.8. The Servicer shall on the Closing Date give written notice to the Certificate Administrator (with a copy to the Loan Parties) of the location and account number of the Collection Account and shall notify the Certificate Administrator in writing (with a copy to the Loan Parties) prior to any subsequent change thereof.

(viii) to pay or reimburse the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer in that order, for any indemnities, expenses and other amounts then due and payable or reimbursable to each pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and not previously paid or reimbursed pursuant to the preceding clauses;

(x) to pay CREFC^® the CREFC^®Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee (according to the payment instructions set forth on Exhibit Q hereto or such other payment instructions as CREFC^®may provide from time to time in writing at least two Business Days prior to the Remittance Date);

While the Companion Loans will be serviced, together with the Mortgage Loan, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Co-Lender Agreement, the master servicer or trustee with respect to each related Other Securitization Trust may make advances of delinquent scheduled payments with respect to the related Companion Loan or securitized portion thereof (each such advance, a “Companion Loan Advance”), and none of the Trustee, the Servicer or the Special Servicer will have any obligation to make a Companion Loan Advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Monthly Payment Advance, Property Protection Advance, Administrative Advance or Companion Loan Advance, such advances shall be reimbursed from collections on the Whole Loan prior to any distributions to the Note Holders. Amounts allocable to the Companion Loans under the Co-Lender Agreement shall not otherwise be available to the Trust for purposes of making distributions on the Certificates or for payment of other amounts relating only to the Trust.

-80-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Remittance Date, in no event shall the Servicer be permitted to make a withdrawal pursuant to clauses 3.4(c)(iii), (iv)(b), (v), (vi), (viii) or (x) above if, as a result of such withdrawal, the amount on deposit in the Collection Account after giving effect to such withdrawal would be less than the Required Advance Amount; provided that the Servicer shall be permitted to make withdrawals in the order of priority specified above up to the amount on deposit in the Collection Account that would result in funds equaling or exceeding the Required Advance Amount remaining in the Collection Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such withdrawal limitations shall not apply (and accrued amounts previously eligible for withdrawal pursuant to clauses 3.4(c)(iii), (iv)(b), (v), (vi), (viii) or (x) but which remain unpaid due to the operation of this paragraph may then be withdrawn and paid) upon (1) the final liquidation of the Whole Loan or the Mortgaged Property, (2) the final payment of the Whole Loan and release of the Mortgage or (3) the determination that any Advance, together with any currently unreimbursed Advances in the aggregate such that it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided, further, that the Servicer shall be permitted to make withdrawals in the order of priority specified above up to the amount on deposit in the Collection Amount that would result in funds equaling or exceeding the Required Advance Amount remaining in the Collection Account.

The Servicer shall pay to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee and advance or pay to the Special Servicer, if applicable, from the Collection Account, as provided above, amounts permitted to be paid to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee therefrom, promptly upon receipt of certificates of a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee or an officer of the Special Servicer describing the item and amount to which the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, as the case may be, are entitled unless such payment to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, is clearly required pursuant to this Agreement, in which case a written certificate shall not be required. The Servicer may rely conclusively on any such certificate, shall have no duty to recalculate the amounts stated therein and shall have no liability if the amount paid in reliance thereon is an amount to which the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, is not entitled.

Upon the determination that a previously made Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Whole Loan (or, in the case of a Monthly Payment Advance, the Mortgage Loan) deposited in the Collection Account and available for distribution on the next Distribution Date, the Servicer or the Trustee, each at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to this Section 3.4(c) immediately, may elect to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement for such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the Collection Period ending on the then-current Determination Date for successive one-month periods for a total period not to exceed 12 months. If the Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election at its sole option and in its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable in the subsequent Collection Period (subject, again, to the same sole discretion to elect to defer; it is acknowledged that, in such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be payable first from principal collections as described above prior to payment from other

-81-

collections). In connection with a potential election by the Servicer or the Trustee to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof during the one-month Collection Period ending on the related Determination Date for any Distribution Date, the Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized (in its sole discretion) to wait for principal collections on the Whole Loan (or, in the case of a Monthly Payment Advance, the Mortgage Loan) to be received before making its determination of whether to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance (or portion thereof) until the end of such Collection Period; provided, however, that if, at any time Servicer or the Trustee elects, in its sole discretion, not to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or otherwise determines that the reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance during a one month collection period will exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections deposited in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date, then the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to give notice of its election to the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b) of this Agreement), at least 15 days prior to any reimbursement to it of Nonrecoverable Advances from amounts in the Collection Account allocable to interest on the Whole Loan unless extraordinary circumstances make such notice impractical, and thereafter shall deliver such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b) of this Agreement) as soon as reasonably practical thereafter. Neither the Servicer nor the Trustee shall have any liability for any loss, liability or expense resulting from any notice provided to the Rating Agency contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to give such notice shall in no way affect the Servicer’s or the Trustee’s election as to whether to refrain from obtaining reimbursement pursuant to this Section 3.4(c).

(d) The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to limit any liability that may otherwise be imposed on such Person for any failure by such Person to comply with the conditions to making such an election under this section or to comply with the terms of this section and the other provisions of this Agreement that apply once such an election, if any, has been made, provided, however, that the fact that a decision to recover such Nonrecoverable Advances over time, or not to do so, benefits some Classes of Certificateholders to the detriment of other Classes shall not, with respect to the Servicer, constitute a violation of Accepted Servicing Practices, and/or with respect to the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), constitute a violation of any fiduciary duty to Certificateholders or any contractual obligation hereunder. If the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, that it should recover the Nonrecoverable Advances without deferral, then the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances with interest thereon at the Advance Rate from all amounts in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date (deemed first from principal and then interest and other amounts). Any such election by any such party to refrain from reimbursing itself or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more collection periods shall not limit the accrual of interest at the Advance Rate on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, agreement to defer reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Certificateholders and shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Certificateholders. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create in the Certificateholders a right to prior payment of distributions over the Servicer’s or the

-82-

Trustee’s, as applicable, right to reimbursement for Advances (deferred or otherwise) and accrued interest thereon. In all events, the decision to defer reimbursement or to seek immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances shall be deemed to be in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and none of the Servicer, the Trustee or the other parties to this Agreement shall have any liability to one another or to any of the Certificateholders or any Companion Loan Holder for any such election that such party makes as contemplated by this section or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election.

(e) The Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and, to the extent sufficient funds are on deposit therein, pay the CREFC^®Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee to CREFC^® in accordance with Section 3.4(c)(x) on a monthly basis, solely from funds on deposit in the Collection Account.

(f) The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain a reserve account (which may be a subaccount of the Distribution Account) (the “Interest Reserve Account”) for the benefit of the Trustee and for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Interest Reserve Account must be an Eligible Account maintained with an Eligible Institution. Funds on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account shall be uninvested. On each Distribution Date occurring in any February and on any Distribution Date occurring in any January which occurs in a year that is not a leap year (unless, in either case, such Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall deposit into the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to one day’s net interest collected on the principal balance of each Trust Note as of the Payment Date occurring in the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs at the Note Rate (net of interest at the Servicing Fee Rate, the Certificate Administrator Fee Rate (including the portion that is the Trustee Fee Rate) and the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee Rate and exclusive of Default Interest allocable to the Mortgage Loan payable therefrom) to the extent a full Monthly Payment or Monthly Payment Advance is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive January and February, “Withheld Amounts”). On each Remittance Date occurring in March (or February, if the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to the Withheld Amounts from the preceding January and February, if any, and transfer such amounts into the Distribution Account.

3.5. Distribution Account. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain in the name of “Computershare Trust Company, National Association”, as Certificate Administrator, on behalf of “Computershare Trust Company, National Association”, as the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and for the benefit of the Certificateholders a deposit account (the “Distribution Account”), which shall be deemed to include the Lower-Tier Distribution Account and the Upper-Tier Distribution Account, which shall be subaccounts of the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, as holder of the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests. The Distribution Account must be an Eligible Account maintained with an Eligible Institution. On each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Distribution Account all Aggregate Available Funds remaining on deposit therein, after giving effect to the withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.4(c). The Certificate Administrator shall credit the funds remitted by the Servicer from the Collection Account to the Distribution Account. Amounts held in the Distribution Account shall be uninvested.

-83-

The Certificate Administrator shall make withdrawals from the Distribution Account to withdraw any amounts deposited in error, to withdraw amounts due to it under Section 3.4(c), to the extent such amounts were not withdrawn and paid to it by the Servicer under Section 3.4(c), and then to make distributions to the Holders of the Certificates pursuant to Section 4.1.

(b) The Certificate Administrator shall make or be deemed to have made withdrawals from the Lower-Tier Distribution Account in the following order of priority and only for the following purposes:

(i) to make deposits of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount pursuant to Section 4.1(b) and Section 4.3(c) into the Upper-Tier Distribution Account and to make distributions to the Holder of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LT-R Interest) pursuant to Section 4.1(b);

(ii) to withdraw amounts deposited in error and pay such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto and to withdraw amounts due to it and the Trustee under Section 3.4(c), to the extent such amounts were not withdrawn and paid to it by the Servicer under Section 3.4(c);

(iii) to clear and terminate the Lower-Tier Distribution Account pursuant to Section 10.1. The Certificate Administrator shall make withdrawals from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account;

(iv) to withdraw amounts deposited in error and to withdraw amounts due to it and the Trustee under Section 3.4(c), to the extent such amounts were not withdrawn and paid to it by the Servicer under Section 3.4(c);

(v) to make distributions to Holders of the Regular Certificates and the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class UT-R Interest) on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 10.2 as applicable; and

(vi) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1.

3.6. Foreclosed Property Account. The Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more deposit accounts (the “Foreclosed Property Account”) in the name of either (a) “Situs Holdings, LLC, as Special Servicer, on behalf of Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of BXP Trust 2021-601L, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2021-601L, and the Companion Loan Holders, Foreclosed Property Account” related to the Foreclosed Property, if any, held in the name of the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and the Companion Loan Holders) or (b) in the name of the limited liability company wholly owned by the Trust and which is managed by the Special Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders (and the Companion Loan Holders), formed to hold title to the Foreclosed Property pursuant to Section 3.14. Each Foreclosed Property Account must be an Eligible Account maintained with an Eligible Institution. The Special Servicer shall deposit into the Foreclosed Property Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt all properly identified funds collected

-84-

and received in connection with the operation or ownership of such Foreclosed Property during each Collection Period. On or before the last day of each Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall withdraw the funds in the Foreclosed Property Account, net of certain expenses and/or reserves (the amount of such expenses and/or reserves as determined in the Special Servicer’s reasonable discretion), and deposit them into the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.4(a). The Special Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator in writing of the location and account number of the Foreclosed Property Account and shall notify the Certificate Administrator in writing prior to any subsequent change thereof.

3.7. Appraisal Reductions. (a) Within 60 days after the occurrence of an Appraisal Reduction Event, the Special Servicer shall (i) notify the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Companion Loan Holders and, so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred, the Directing Certificateholder, of such occurrence of an Appraisal Reduction Event, (ii) order (which order shall be placed within 30 days of the occurrence of the Appraisal Reduction Event) and use reasonable efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to obtain an Appraisal of the Mortgaged Property (provided that the Special Servicer will not be required to obtain an Appraisal of the Mortgaged Property with respect to which there exists an Appraisal which was performed less than nine (9) months prior to the Appraisal Reduction Event and the Special Servicer does not have knowledge of any adverse material change in the market or condition or value of the Mortgaged Property since the date of such Appraisal, in which case such Appraisal with respect to the Mortgaged Property shall be used by the Special Servicer), (iii) determine whether there exists any Appraisal Reduction Amount on the basis of such Appraisal, and receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Servicer and in the possession of the Servicer necessary to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount, and (iv) allocate the Appraisal Reduction Amount among the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans as described below and give reasonably prompt notice of such Appraisal Reduction Amount, the Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount and the portions of the Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to the Companion Loans to the Companion Loan Holder (or, in the case of a Companion Loan that is part of an Other Securitization Trust, the master servicer, special servicer and trustee with respect to such Other Securitization Trust), the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator (to the extent not already reported to such parties on the CREFC^®Reports provided by the Servicer and the Certificate Administrator’s website).

The cost of obtaining such Appraisal shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance or an Administrative Advance unless it would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance and in such case, subject to the allocation provisions of the Co-Lender Agreement, as a Trust Fund Expense. Updates of such Appraisal shall be obtained by the Special Servicer, and paid for by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance or an Administrative Advance (or, subject to the allocation provisions of the Co-Lender Agreement, paid for by the Trust if the Servicer determines that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance) every nine (9) months for so long as an Appraisal Reduction Event exists, and the Appraisal Reduction Amount shall be adjusted accordingly. If required in accordance with any such adjustment, each Class of Certificates that has been notionally reduced for purposes of determining Voting Rights as a result of the application of the Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount shall have its related Certificate Balance notionally restored by the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee to the extent required by such adjustment of the Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount, and there shall be a redetermination of whether a Control Event has occurred.

-85-

Any such Appraisal obtained under this Section 3.7 shall be delivered by the Special Servicer to the Trustee, the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Companion Loan Holders and, so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred, the Directing Certificateholder, in electronic format, and the Certificate Administrator shall make such Appraisal available to Privileged Persons pursuant to Section 8.15(b). The Servicer shall provide (via electronic delivery) the Special Servicer with information in its possession that is reasonably requested by the Special Servicer and necessary to calculate or recalculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount pursuant to the definition thereof, using reasonable efforts to deliver such information within four (4) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s written request (which request shall be made promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days, after the Special Servicer’s receipt of the applicable Appraisal or preparation of the applicable internal valuation) provided, however, that the Special Servicer’s failure to timely make such a request shall not relieve the Servicer of its obligation to provide such information to the Special Servicer in the manner and timing set forth in this sentence. Accordingly, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to calculate, recalculate, determine or redetermine any Appraisal Reduction Amounts until such time as it receives from the Servicer the information in the Servicer’s possession reasonably requested by the Special Servicer and necessary to make such calculation, recalculation, determination or redetermination. The Servicer shall not calculate Appraisal Reduction Amounts.

(b) While any Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount (or deemed Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount pursuant to Section 3.7(e)) exists with respect to the Mortgage Loan, (i) the amount of any Monthly Payment Advances shall be reduced as provided in Section 3.23(a) and (ii) the existence thereof (other than any deemed Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount calculated pursuant to Section 3.7(e)) will be taken into account for purposes of determining the Voting Rights of certain Classes of Certificates as provided in Section 3.7(c) and (iii) except with respect to any deemed Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount pursuant to Section 3.7(e), there shall be a determination of whether a Control Event has occurred.

(c) Trust Appraisal Reduction Amounts shall be allocated between the RR Interest and the Non-Retained Certificates, on the other, based on the Required Risk Retained Percentage and the Non-Risk Retained Percentage, respectively. The Required Risk Retained Percentage of the Appraisal Reduction Amount for any Distribution Date shall be applied to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of the RR Interest until reduced to zero. The Certificate Balance of each of the Sequential Pay Certificates and the RR Interest shall be notionally reduced solely for purposes of determining (x) the Voting Rights of the related Classes to the extent set forth in this Agreement and (y) whether a Control Event has occurred on any Distribution Date to the extent of any Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to such Class on such Distribution Date. The Non-Risk Retained Percentage of Trust Appraisal Reduction Amounts for any Distribution Date shall be applied to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the Sequential Pay Certificates in the following order of priority: first, to the Class E Certificates; second, to the Class D Certificates, third, to the Class C and fourth, to the Class B Certificates (provided in each case that no Certificate Balance in respect of any such Class may be notionally reduced below zero). Trust Appraisal Reduction Amounts shall not be applied to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of the Class A Certificates.

-86-

(d) In the event that a portion of one or more Monthly Payment Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan is reduced as a result of an Appraisal Reduction Event, the amount of the Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to interest on the Mortgage Loan shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of such reductions and the portion of such Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to principal of the Mortgage Loan shall be increased by such amount, and if the amounts of the Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to principal of the Mortgage Loan have been applied to pay the principal of the Mortgage Loan, in full, any remaining Net Liquidation Proceeds shall then be applied to pay any remaining accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, in accordance with Section 1.3.

(e) With respect to any Appraisal Reduction Amount calculated for purposes of determining an Appraisal Reduction Event, the appraised value (as determined by an updated Appraisal) of the Mortgaged Property securing the Whole Loan will be determined on an “as-is” basis, based upon the current physical condition, use and zoning of the Mortgaged Property as of the date of the Appraisal.

If the Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class Certificate (taking into account the application of any Non-Risk Retained Appraisal Reduction Amounts (other than any deemed Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount pursuant to Section 3.7(e)) to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of such Class) has been reduced to less than 25% of its Initial Certificate Balance, such Class will be referred to as the “Appraised-Out Class”. The Holders of the majority (by Certificate Balance) of the Appraised-Out Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order a second Appraisal of the Mortgaged Property (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”). The Special Servicer shall use efforts in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices to ensure that such Appraisal is delivered within 60 days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and shall ensure that such Appraisal is prepared by an Independent Appraiser).

In addition, if subsequent to the Controlling Class Certificate becoming an Appraised-Out Class there is a material change with respect to the Mortgaged Property related to the Appraisal Reduction Amounts that caused such Class to become an Appraised-Out Class, the Requesting Holders shall have the right to request, in writing, that the Special Servicer obtain an additional Appraisal, which request shall set forth the Requesting Holder’s belief of what constitutes a material change to the Mortgaged Property (including any related documentation). The costs of obtaining such additional Appraisal shall be paid by the Requesting Holders. Subject to the Special Servicer’s confirmation, determined in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that there has been a change with respect to the Mortgaged Property and such change was material, the Special Servicer shall order another Appraisal from an Independent Appraiser, the identity of which shall be determined by the Special Servicer in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (provided that such Independent Appraiser may not be the same Independent Appraiser that provided the Appraisal in respect of which the Requesting Holders are requesting the Special Servicer to obtain an additional Appraisal). Appraisals that are permitted to be requested by any Appraised-Out Class shall be in addition to any Appraisals that the Special Servicer may otherwise be required to obtain in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices upon the occurrence of such material change or that the Special Servicer is otherwise required or permitted to order under this Agreement without regard to any Appraisal requests made by any Requesting Holder.

-87-

Upon receipt of any additional Appraisal pursuant to the two preceding paragraphs, the Special Servicer shall recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount and the Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount based upon such additional Appraisal. If required by any such recalculation, the Appraised-Out Class shall be reinstated as the Controlling Class and the Appraised-Out Class shall have its Certificate Balance notionally restored to the extent required by such recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount and the Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount.

Any Appraised-Out Class for which the Requesting Holders are challenging the Special Servicer’s Appraisal Reduction Amounts determination may not exercise any rights of the related Controlling Class until such time, if any, as such Class is reinstated as the Controlling Class.

3.8. Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and The Foreclosed Property Account. (a) The Servicer, with respect to the Collection Account and the Reserve Accounts, and the Special Servicer, with respect to the Foreclosed Property Accounts, may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account, any Foreclosed Property Account and any Reserve Account (to the extent interest is not payable to the Loan Parties), respectively (each, for purposes of this Section 3.8, an “Investment Account”), to invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments that bear interest or are sold at a discount, and that mature, unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such Investment Account pursuant to this Agreement. Any direction by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, to invest funds on deposit in an Investment Account shall be in writing and shall certify that the requested investment is a Permitted Investment which matures at or prior to the time required hereby or is payable on demand. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee. The Trustee shall have sole control (except with respect to investment direction, which shall be in the control of the Servicer (or the Special Servicer, with respect to the Foreclosed Property Accounts) as an independent contractor to the Trust Fund) over each such investment and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent (which shall initially be the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable), together with any document of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee or its nominee. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to the investment directions of the Servicer or Special Servicer or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Servicer and Special Servicer, as applicable, shall:

(i) consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

(ii) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the related Investment Account.

-88-

(b) All net income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in the Collection Account and the Reserve Accounts (to the extent not payable to the Loan Parties) shall be for the benefit of the Servicer in accordance with the terms and priorities of this Agreement. All net income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in the Foreclosed Property Account shall be for the benefit of the Special Servicer. Any net losses on funds in the Collection Account, the Reserve Accounts (except, in the case of any such loss with respect to a Reserve Account, to the extent any such losses are incurred on amounts invested for the benefit of the Borrower under the terms of the Loan Documents) or the Foreclosed Property Account shall be reimbursed by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, from its own funds promptly, but in any event on or prior to the Remittance Date following the realization of such loss. Notwithstanding the above, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to deposit any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss (i) was incurred solely as a result of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of “Eligible Institution” included in Section 1.1 at the time such investment was made, (ii) such loss was incurred within thirty (30) days of the date of such bankruptcy or insolvency, (iii) such loss is not the result of fraud, negligence or the willful misconduct of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable and (iv) such institution was not an Affiliate of the Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable.

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Servicer shall take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings. In the event the Servicer takes any such action, the Trust Fund shall pay or reimburse the Servicer, pursuant to Section 3.4(c), for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Servicer in connection therewith.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the Collection Account, the Foreclosed Property Account, the Interest Reserve Account and the Lower-Tier Distribution Account (including interest, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such accounts) will be owned by the Lower-Tier REMIC, and the Upper-Tier Distribution Account (including interest, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such account) will be owned by the Upper-Tier REMIC, each for federal income tax purposes.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee (in its capacity as the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be) shall cover any losses from the bankruptcy or insolvency of a depository institution holding an account described in this Section 3.8, if immediately prior to such bankruptcy or insolvency such institution was an Eligible Institution and such institution was not an Affiliate of the Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable; provided however, that the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, shall move such account to an Eligible Institution within 30 days of such bankruptcy or insolvency.

-89-

3.9. Payment of Taxes, Assessments, etc. The Servicer (other than with respect to the Foreclosed Property) and the Special Servicer (with respect to the Foreclosed Property) shall maintain, accurate records with respect to the Mortgaged Property (or the Foreclosed Property, as the case may be) reflecting the status of taxes, assessments, charges and other similar items that are or may become a lien on the Mortgaged Property (or the Foreclosed Property, as the case may be) and the status of insurance premiums payable in respect of insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof. The Servicer shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums). The Servicer shall pay real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other similar items from funds in the applicable Reserve Account in accordance with the Loan Agreement at such time as may be required by the Loan Documents. If the Loan Parties do not make the necessary payments and/or a Mortgage Loan Event of Default has occurred and amounts in the applicable Reserve Account are insufficient to make such payments, the Servicer shall make a Property Protection Advance, subject to the determination of non-recoverability provided in Section 3.23, from its own funds for amounts payable with respect to all such items related to the Mortgaged Property when and as the same shall become due and payable. The Servicer shall ensure that the amount of funds in the applicable Reserve Account is increased when and if applicable taxes, assessments, charges and other similar items, ground rents or insurance premiums are increased, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement.

3.10. Appointment of Special Servicer. (a) Situs Holdings, LLC is hereby appointed as the initial Special Servicer to service the Whole Loan while a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing and perform the other obligations of the Special Servicer hereunder (including approving certain actions prior to a Special Servicing Loan Event as provided specifically herein).

(b) If there is a Special Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer, such Special Servicer may be removed and replaced pursuant to Sections 7.1 and 7.2. The Trustee shall, promptly after receiving notice of any such Special Servicer Termination Event notify the Servicer, the Companion Loan Holders, the Certificate Administrator (which shall post such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 8.15(b)) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 8.15(b)). The appointment of any such successor special servicer shall not relieve the Servicer or the Trustee of their respective obligations to make Advances as set forth herein; provided, however, the initial Special Servicer specified above shall not be liable for any actions or any inaction of such successor special servicer. No termination fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer. No termination of the Special Servicer and appointment of a successor special servicer shall be effective until the successor special servicer has assumed all of its responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder in writing, and a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such appointment has been delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator and their respective counterparts with respect to each Other Securitization Trust. Any successor special servicer shall be deemed to make the representations and warranties provided for in Section 2.5 mutatis mutandis as of the date of its succession. The terminated Special Servicer shall retain all rights accruing to it under this Agreement, including the right to receive fees accrued prior to its termination and other amounts payable to it (including indemnification payments).

-90-

(c) Upon determining that a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Whole Loan, the Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof to each other party hereto and the Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents (but excluding the original documents constituting the Mortgage File) and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to the Whole Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its duties hereunder with respect thereto. The Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the date that a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred. The Servicer in any event shall continue to act as Servicer and administrator of the Whole Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of the Whole Loan, which shall occur upon the receipt by the Special Servicer of the information, documents and records referred to in the preceding sentence. The Special Servicer shall instruct the Loan Parties to continue to remit all payments in respect of the Whole Loan to the Servicer. The Servicer shall forward any notices it would otherwise send to the Loan Parties under the Whole Loan to the Special Servicer who shall send such notice to the Loan Parties while a Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing.

(d) Upon determining that a Special Servicing Loan Event is no longer continuing with respect to the Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof to the Companion Loan Holders and each other party hereto, and upon giving such notice such Special Servicing Loan Event shall cease, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service the Whole Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Servicer to service and administer the Whole Loan shall resume and the Special Servicer shall return all of the information and materials furnished to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.10(c) to the Servicer.

(e) In making a Major Decision or in servicing the Whole Loan during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Special Servicer shall provide to the Custodian originals of documents entered into in connection therewith that are required to be included within the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the Mortgage File (to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Special Servicer) and copies of any additional related Whole Loan information, including correspondence with the Loan Parties, and the Special Servicer shall promptly provide copies of all of the foregoing to the Servicer as well as copies of any analysis or internal review prepared by or for the benefit of the Special Servicer; provided that, such materials shall not include any Privileged Information.

-91-

such additional information relating to the Whole Loan as the Servicer or Certificate Administrator reasonably requests to enable it to perform its duties under this Agreement.

(g) [Reserved.]

(h) Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding subsection (c), the Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to the Whole Loan and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information reasonably required by the Special Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement.

(i) Not later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event (the “Initial Delivery Date”), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format (i) a report (an “Asset Status Report”) for the Specially Serviced Whole Loan and the Mortgaged Property and (ii) one or more additional Asset Status Reports with respect to such Specially Serviced Whole Loan subsequent to the issuance of a final Asset Status Report to the extent that during the course of the resolution of the Mortgage Loan and Companion Loans material changes in the circumstances and/or strategy reflected in the initial final Asset Status Report (or subsequent final Asset Status Reports) are necessary to reflect the then current circumstances and recommendation as to how the Specially Serviced Whole Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise liquidated in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (each such report a “Subsequent Asset Status Report”). The Special Servicer shall deliver each final Asset Status Report in electronic form to: (i) the Servicer, each Risk Retention Consultation Party, (ii) the Directing Certificateholder (but only so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred), (iii) the 17g-5 Information Provider in accordance with Section 8.15(b) (who shall promptly post it to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b) and (iv) the Companion Loan Holders). Such Asset Status Report shall set forth the following information (other than Privileged Information) to the extent reasonably determinable:

(i) summary of the status of the Whole Loan and any negotiations with the Loan Parties;

(ii) a discussion of the legal and environmental considerations reasonably known at such time to the Special Servicer, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, that are applicable to the exercise of remedies as aforesaid and to the enforcement of any related guaranties or other collateral for the Whole Loan and whether outside legal counsel has been retained;

(iii) the most current rent roll and income or operating statement available for the Mortgaged Property;

(iv) the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how the Whole Loan might be returned to performing status and returned to the Servicer for regular servicing or otherwise realized upon;

(vi) the status of any foreclosure actions or other proceedings undertaken with respect thereto, any proposed workouts with respect thereto and the status of any negotiations with respect to such workouts, and an assessment of the likelihood of additional Whole Loan Events of Default;

(vii) [Reserved];

(viii) a description of any proposed actions;

(ix) the alternative courses of action considered by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed actions;

(x) the decision that the Special Servicer intends or proposes to make, including a narrative analysis setting forth the Special Servicer’s rationale for its proposed decision, including its rejection of the alternatives; and an analysis of whether or not taking such action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a net present value basis than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the net present value calculation (including the applicable discount rate used) and all related assumptions;

(xi) a summary of the status of any action that was described in the most recent prior Asset Status Report and subsequently effected by the Special Servicer, excluding any Privileged Information; and

(xii) such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the proposed action and Accepted Servicing Practices.

(j) The Special Servicer shall (x) deliver to the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall post to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b)) the final Asset Status Report, (y) deliver to the Certificate Administrator a proposed notice to the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders that will include a summary of the final Asset Status Report in an electronic format, which format is reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator (which will be a brief summary of the current status of the Mortgaged Property and current strategy with respect to the resolution and workout of the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans), and the Certificate Administrator shall post such summary (but not the final Asset Status Report itself) on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b) and (z) implement the final Asset Status Report in the form delivered to the 17g-5 Information Provider. Subject to the consent and consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder described in this Section 3.10(j), the Special Servicer shall not be required to deliver a summary of any interim or draft Asset Status Report. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered. Upon such modification, the Special Servicer shall prepare an updated summary and deliver the updated summary to the Certificate Administrator and deliver the modified Asset Status Report to the 17g-5 Information Provider. The 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such modified Asset Status Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b), the Certificate Administrator shall post such summary on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and the Special Servicer shall

-93-

implement such modified Asset Status Report after consulting with the Companion Loan Holders on a strictly non-binding basis.

(k) Subject to the last paragraph of Section 9.3(a), prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event, if within ten (10) Business Days of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Directing Certificateholder does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing, the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report. In addition, so long as no Control Event has occurred or is continuing, if the Directing Certificateholder disapproves such Asset Status Report within ten (10) Business Days of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made the determination described below, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report and deliver a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after such disapproval, to the Directing Certificateholder, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Companion Loan Holders and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such revised Asset Status Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 8.15(b)). Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above in this Section 3.10(k) until the Directing Certificateholder shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such revised Asset Status Report, until the Directing Certificateholder’s approval is no longer required or until the Special Servicer makes the determination described below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer (A) may, following the occurrence of an extraordinary event with respect to any Mortgaged Property or the Whole Loan or, if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, take any action set forth in such Asset Status Report before the expiration of a ten (10) Business Day period and (B) shall implement the action recommended in the Asset Status Report, in each case if it makes a determination in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices that such affirmative disapproval is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders as a collective whole; provided that, if the Directing Certificateholder does not approve or is not deemed to have approved an Asset Status Report within ninety (90) days from the first submission of an Asset Status Report, then the Special Servicer will follow Directing Certificateholder’s direction, if such direction is consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices; provided, however, that if the Directing Certificateholder’s direction would cause the Special Servicer to violate Accepted Servicing Practices, the Special Servicer may take the action recommended in its most recently submitted Asset Status Report; provided, further, that such Asset Status Report is not intended to replace or satisfy any other specific consent or approval right which the Directing Certificateholder may have pursuant to Section 9.3.

(l) The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Event but so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post the same to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) a copy of each final Asset Status Report, in each case with reasonable promptness following the adoption thereof. The Special Servicer shall provide a summary of such report to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall post such summary to its Internet website. During the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder (other than in its capacity as a Certificateholder) shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report or otherwise consult with the Special Servicer with respect to any matter set forth therein. After the occurrence and

-94-

during the continuance of a Control Event but so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder shall be entitled to consult with the Special Servicer (on a non-binding basis) and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report. Following the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have no right to consult with the Special Servicer with respect to the Asset Status Reports. The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Reports as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices to take into account any input and/or recommendations of the Directing Certificateholder but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Directing Certificateholder during the continuance of a Control Event.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary: (i) the Servicer or Special Servicer shall have no right or obligation to consult with or to seek and/or obtain consent, approval or direction from any Directing Certificateholder prior to or after acting or making any determination (and provisions of this Agreement requiring such consultation, consent or approval shall be of no effect) during the period following any resignation or removal of a Directing Certificateholder and before a replacement is selected and/or identified; and (ii) no advice, direction or objection from or by the Directing Certificateholder, as contemplated by Section 9.3, or pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, as contemplated by this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement, may (and the Servicer and the Special Servicer may ignore and act without regard to any such advice, direction or objection that the Servicer or the Special Servicer has determined, in its reasonable, good faith judgment, would): (A) require or cause such Servicer or Special Servicer to violate applicable law, the terms of the Loan Documents, the Co-Lender Agreement, this Agreement, including the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, (B) result in an Adverse REMIC Event, (C) expose the Trust, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates, members, managers, officers, directors, employees or agents, to any claim, suit or liability or (D) materially expand the scope of the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s Trustee’s or Certificate Administrator’s responsibilities under this Agreement. Further, in connection with the any Risk Retention Consultation Party’s right to consult with respect to a Major Decision, if the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, determines that immediate action is necessary to protect the Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders from potential harm if such action is not taken, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may take actions with respect to the Mortgaged Property before the expiration of the applicable period for such Risk Retention Consultation Party to respond as described Section 9.3(a), if the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, reasonably determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices that failure to take such actions before the expiration of such period would materially adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders, and the Servicer or Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact such party.

The Servicer and the Special Servicer shall comply with applicable law, the Accepted Servicing Practices, this Agreement, the Co-Lender Agreement and the Loan Documents.

-95-

(m) During the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Special Servicer shall have the authority to meet with the Loan Parties and, subject to the rights of the Directing Certificateholder (so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) and take any actions consistent with Section 3.24, Accepted Servicing Practices and the most recent final Asset Status Report.

(n) Upon request of any Certificateholder (or any Beneficial Owner, if applicable), which shall have provided the Certificate Administrator with an Investor Certification in the form of Exhibit K-1, the Certificate Administrator shall mail, without charge, to the address specified in such request a copy of the most current Asset Status Report that it has received from the Special Servicer.

(o) In addition, during the continuance of a Special Servicing Loan Event, not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on each Determination Date the Special Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Servicer the CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File with respect to the Whole Loan.

(p) The Special Servicer shall be required to deliver to the Servicer such reports and other information in its possession as the Servicer needs in its reasonable discretion to perform its obligations under this Agreement. In no event, however, shall the Special Servicer be required to deliver a summary of any interim or draft Asset Status Report.

3.11. Maintenance of Insurance and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) The Servicer, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and the Loan Documents, shall use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to cause to be maintained by the Borrower (or if the Borrower fails to maintain such insurance in accordance with the Loan Documents, the Servicer shall cause to be maintained to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates, and to the extent the Trustee, as mortgagee, has an insurable interest) insurance with respect to the Mortgaged Property of the types and in the amounts required to be maintained by the Borrower under the Mortgaged Loan Documents and to monitor the Borrower’s compliance with such insurance requirements. The cost of any such insurance maintained by the Servicer shall be advanced by the Servicer, as a Property Protection Advance unless it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, in which case the Servicer will be required to make such payment from the Collection Account, which payment will be a Trust Fund Expense (except to the extent such expense is reimbursed with funds otherwise paid from amounts allocable to the Companion Loans pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement). If such amounts are reimbursed from amounts allocable to the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer (with respect to the Whole Loan when it is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan) or Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or Foreclosed Property) will be required, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account allocable to the Mortgage Loan, if any, to (i) promptly notify the Companion Loan Holders and (ii) use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to exercise on behalf of the Trust the rights of the Trust under the Co-Lender Agreement to obtain reimbursement for a pro rata portion (based on the principal balances of the Notes) of such amount allocable to the Companion Loans from the Companion Loan Holders. Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to maintain, and shall not cause the Borrower to be in default with respect to the failure of the Borrower to obtain, all-risk casualty insurance which does not contain any carve-out for terrorist or similar acts, if and only if the

-96-

Special Servicer has (and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder) determined, on an annual basis, that such failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default. Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to obtain terrorism insurance pursuant to this Agreement to the extent the Borrower would not be obligated to maintain terrorism insurance under the Loan Documents as in effect on the date thereof.

(b) The Special Servicer, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and the Loan Documents, shall cause to be maintained such insurance (including environmental insurance) with respect to the Foreclosed Property as the Borrower is required to maintain with respect to the Mortgaged Property referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 3.11 or, at the Special Servicer’s election, coverage satisfying insurance requirements consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. The cost of any such insurance with respect to the Foreclosed Property shall be payable out of amounts on deposit in the Foreclosed Property Account or shall be advanced by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. If such amounts are reimbursed from amounts allocable to the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer (with respect to the Whole Loan when it is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan) or Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or Foreclosed Property) will be required, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account allocable to the Mortgage Loan, if any, to (i) promptly notify the Companion Loan Holders and (ii) use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to exercise on behalf of the Trust the rights of the Trust under the Co-Lender Agreement to obtain reimbursement for a pro rata portion (based on the principal balances of the Notes) of such amount allocable to the Companion Loans from the Companion Loan Holders. Any such insurance (other than terrorism insurance, which shall be maintained to the extent required under subsection (a)) that is required to be maintained with respect to the Foreclosed Property shall only be so required to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates and the Trust has an insurable interest in the Foreclosed Property. If the Special Servicer requests the Servicer to make a Property Protection Advance in respect of the premiums due in respect of such insurance, the Servicer shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of such request, make such Property Protection Advance unless such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, and if the Servicer does not make such Advance, the Trustee (within 5 Business Days of its receipt of notice of the Servicer’s failure to make such Advance) shall make an Advance of the premiums to maintain such insurance; provided that, in each such case, such obligations shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement concerning Nonrecoverable Advances, the Trustee as mortgagee having an insurable interest and the availability of such insurance at commercially reasonable rates.

(c) The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may satisfy its obligations to cause insurance policies to be maintained by maintaining a master force placed or blanket insurance policy insuring against losses on the Mortgaged Property or the Foreclosed Property, as the case may be for which coverage is otherwise required to be maintained as set forth in the preceding subsections of this Section 3.11. The incremental cost of such insurance allocable to the Mortgaged Property or Foreclosed Property, if not borne by the applicable Loan Parties, shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. If such master force placed or blanket insurance policy contains a deductible clause, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be obligated to deposit in the Collection Account out of its own funds all sums that would have been deposited therein but for such clause

-97-

to the extent any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the Mortgage Loan, or in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation that is consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices.

(d) Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense, and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy with an insurance company with a claims-paying ability rating at least equal to one of the following: (a) “A-” by S&P, (b) “A-” by Fitch Ratings, Inc., (c) “A3” by Xxxxx’x, (d) “A(low)” by DBRS, Inc. or (e) “A-:VIII” by A.M. Best Company (or such other rating as to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained) covering the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s, as applicable, officers and employees in connection with its activities under this Agreement. Each such insurance policy shall protect the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, against losses resulting directly from forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions of such covered persons. Coverage of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate thereof and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.11(d) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.11(d). The amount of coverage shall at least be equal to the coverage that is required by the applicable governmental authorities having regulatory power over the Servicer and Special Servicer. The amount of coverage shall be in such form and amount as are consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. In the event that any such bond or policy ceases to be in effect, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall obtain a comparable replacement bond or policy. Each shall use reasonable effort to cause each and every sub-servicer, if any, to maintain a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy meeting the requirements as described above. In lieu of the foregoing, but subject to this Section 3.11, the Servicer and the Special Servicer may self-insure with respect to such risks so long as the long term debt obligations or deposits of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (or its immediate or remote parent) are rated at least “A3” by Xxxxx’x (or such other rating as to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained).

(e) No provision of this Section 3.11 requiring such fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer or the Special Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The Trustee shall be entitled to request, upon receipt of a written request from any Certificateholder, and the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, a certificate of insurance from the surety and insurer certifying that such insurance is in full force and effect. The Trustee will make any such certificate of insurance available to the requesting Certificateholder on a confidential basis.

3.12. Procedures with Respect to Defaulted Whole Loan; Realization upon the Mortgaged Property. (a) Following, and during the continuance of, a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (with notification to and consent of the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event and upon consultation with the Directing Certificateholder after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Event but so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred), for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders, subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, and the Co-Lender Agreement, shall promptly pursue the remedies set forth therein or such resolution as is otherwise available to the Special Servicer, in each case, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, including foreclosure or otherwise realization on the

-98-

Mortgaged Property and the other collateral for the Whole Loan. In connection with any foreclosure, enforcement of the applicable Loan Documents or other realization on the Collateral, the Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, pay the costs and expenses in any such proceedings as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, in which case, if the Special Servicer determines (with the Servicer permitted to conclusively rely upon any such determination) that such payment would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders constituted a single lender), the Special Servicer will be required to direct the Servicer to make such payment from the Collection Account, which payment will be a Trust Fund Expense (except to the extent such expenses are reimbursed with funds otherwise paid from amounts allocable to the Companion Loans pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement).

(b) Any proposed acceleration of the Whole Loan and/or foreclosure on the Mortgaged Property shall be taken unless the Special Servicer waives such Mortgage Loan Event of Default (or modifies or amends the Whole Loan to cure the Mortgage Loan Event of Default), which the Special Servicer may do if such modification, waiver or amendment is consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and does not cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or subject the Trust REMIC to any tax (other than a tax on “net income from foreclosure property” under Code Section 860G(c)).

(c) In connection with such foreclosure as described in Section 3.12(a) or other realization on the Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall follow Accepted Servicing Practices; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to direct the Servicer, and neither the Special Servicer nor the Servicer shall be required, to expend its own funds to restore the Mortgaged Property damaged by an Uninsured Cause unless the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, permitted the related insurance policy to lapse in violation of its respective obligations hereunder. If the Servicer does expend its own funds to restore the Mortgaged Property damaged by an Uninsured Cause (which insurance policy did not lapse in violation of the Servicer’s obligations), such expense shall be a Property Protection Advance. In connection with any foreclosure, enforcement of the Loan Documents or other realization on the Collateral, the Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, pay the costs and expenses in any such proceedings as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d) In connection with any foreclosure or other acquisition, the Special Servicer shall request the Servicer to pay, and the Servicer shall pay, the out of pocket costs and expenses in any such proceedings as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in its sole discretion exercised in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of Advances (with interest at the Advance Rate) made pursuant to the preceding sentence in accordance with Section 3.23. While negotiating a workout with the Borrower, the Special Servicer shall pursue any appropriate remedies to but not including actual foreclosure until such negotiations, in the judgment of the Special Servicer and in accordance with Accepted Servicing

-99-

Practices, are not reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a net present value basis than foreclosure.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer may not foreclose on the Mortgaged Property on behalf of the Trust and the Companion Loan Holders and thereby cause the Trust to be the beneficial owner of the Mortgaged Property, or take any other action with respect to the Mortgaged Property that would cause the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders, to be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of the Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, subject to the rights of the Risk Retention Consultation Parties to consult in respect of such action, as applicable, unless the Special Servicer has previously determined, based on a report prepared as a Trust Fund Expense by an independent Person who regularly conducts site assessments for purchasers of comparable properties (a copy of such report to be provided to the Certificate Administrator, the Companion Loan Holders and the Trustee by the Special Servicer), that (i) the Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or that taking the remedial actions necessary to comply with such laws is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a net present value basis than not taking such actions and (ii) there are no circumstances known to the Special Servicer relating to the use of hazardous substances or petroleum-based materials which require investigation or remediation, or that if such circumstances exist taking such remedial actions is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a net present value basis than not taking such actions. The Special Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the 17g-5 Information Provider in electronic format and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall make such report available to the Rating Agency and NRSROs pursuant to Section 8.15(b).

If the Special Servicer has so determined based on satisfaction of the criteria in this Section 3.12(e) that it would be in the best economic interest (as determined in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices) of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders as a collective whole (taking into account the subordination of the Trust B Notes to the A Notes) to institute a foreclosure or take any other actions described in the immediately preceding paragraph, subject to the rights of (i) the Risk Retention Consultation Parties to consult, and (ii) the Directing Certificateholder to consent to and/or consult in respect of such action, as applicable, pursuant to the terms hereof, the Special Servicer shall take such proposed action. The Special Servicer shall not foreclose upon or otherwise cause the Trust to acquire ownership of any Collateral other than the Mortgaged Property unless it receives an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines that such Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or if determined a Nonrecoverable Advance, a Trust Fund Expense) to the effect that such acquisition will not cause the imposition of a tax on the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC (other than a tax on “net income from foreclosure property” under Code Section 860G(c)) under the REMIC Provisions or cause the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding.

The Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, advance the cost of any such compliance, containment, clean up or remediation as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

-100-

(f) The environmental site assessments contemplated by Section 3.12(e) shall be prepared by any Independent Person who regularly conducts environmental site assessments for purchasers of comparable properties, as determined by the Servicer in a manner consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. The cost of each such environmental site assessment shall qualify as a Property Protection Advance and shall be advanced by the Servicer unless the Servicer determines that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(g) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall not acquire and hold for the benefit of the Trust Fund any personal property (including any non-real property Collateral) pursuant to this Section 3.12 unless:

(i) such personal property is incidental to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special Servicer; or

(ii) the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines that such Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on the Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause the Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding (and such Opinion of Counsel may be premised on the designation hereby of any such personal property as being deemed part of an “outside reserve fund” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h)) with the owner of such personal property for federal income tax purposes to be designated at such time)).

(h) Notwithstanding any acquisition of title to the Mortgaged Property following a Mortgage Loan Event of Default under the Whole Loan and cancellation of the Whole Loan, the Mortgage Loan and each Companion Loan shall be deemed to remain outstanding and, in the case of the Mortgage Loan, held in the Trust, and in the case of the Companion Loans, held by the Companion Loan Holders, for purposes of the application of collections and shall be reduced only by collections net of expenses. For purposes of all calculations hereunder, so long as the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans shall be deemed to remain outstanding in accordance with the preceding sentence, (i) it shall be assumed that the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans immediately after any discharge is equal to the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans immediately prior to such discharge and (ii) Foreclosure Proceeds shall be applied as provided in Section 1.3(b) and the Co-Lender Agreement.

3.13. Custodian and Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Items in Mortgage File. From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing of the Whole Loan or foreclosure of or realization on the Mortgaged Property, the Custodian shall, upon request of the Servicer or the Special Servicer and delivery to the Custodian of a request for release in the form of Exhibit B hereto, release or cause to be released any items from the Mortgage File to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, within the lesser of (i) seven (7) calendar days and (ii) five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the related request for release and the Trustee shall execute such documents furnished to it as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. Such request for release shall obligate the Servicer or the Special Servicer to (and the Servicer or Special

-101-

Servicer, as applicable, shall) return such items to the Custodian when the need therefor by the Servicer or the Special Servicer no longer exists.

3.14. Title and Management of Foreclosed Property. (a) In the event that title to the Mortgaged Property is acquired for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, the deed, certificate of sale or other comparable document shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, as trustee for the Certificateholders, or its nominee (which shall not include the Special Servicer), on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders or as otherwise contemplated pursuant to Section 8.10. Title may be taken in the name of a limited liability company wholly owned by the Trust and which is managed by the Special Servicer (the costs of which shall be advanced by the Servicer, provided that such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance). Promptly after such acquisition of title, the Special Servicer shall consult with counsel to determine when an Acquisition Date shall be deemed to occur under the REMIC Provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property, the expense of such consultation being treated as a reimbursable expense of the Special Servicer related to the foreclosure. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders, shall dispose of the Foreclosed Property held by the Trust Fund as expeditiously as appropriate in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, but in any event within the time period, and subject to the conditions, set forth in Sections 3.15 and 12.2. Subject to Sections 12.2 and 3.14(d), the Special Servicer shall hire on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders a Successor Property Manager to manage, conserve, protect and operate the Foreclosed Property for the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale. In connection with such management and subject to Section 3.4(c)(vi), the Successor Property Manager shall be entitled to the REO Management Fee solely from the Foreclosed Property Account or the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.4(c)(vi)).

(b) The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of the Foreclosed Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to the Foreclosed Property the Foreclosed Property Account on behalf of the Trust pursuant to Section 3.5(b).

(c) The Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject to Accepted Servicing Practices and the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with the Foreclosed Property for the benefit of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders as a collective whole (taking into account the subordination of the Trust B Notes to the A Notes) on such terms as are appropriate and necessary for the efficient liquidation of the Foreclosed Property, so long as the Special Servicer deems such actions to be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices.

The Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis in the Foreclosed Property Account all revenues received with respect to the Foreclosed Property, and the Special Servicer shall cause to be withdrawn therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the Foreclosed Property and for other expenses related to the preservation and protection of the Foreclosed Property, including, but not limited to:

-102-

(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of the Foreclosed Property;

(ii) all taxes, assessments, charges or other similar items in respect of the Foreclosed Property that could result or have resulted in the imposition of a lien thereon; and

(iii) all costs and expenses necessary to preserve the Foreclosed Property, including the payment of ground rent, if any.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the Foreclosed Property Account are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above (and all similar amounts or expenses), the Special Servicer shall direct the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall, make a Property Protection Advance unless the Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d) The Special Servicer, in the name of the Trust Fund, shall (subject to Section 3.14(a)) contract with any Successor Property Manager for the operation and management of the Foreclosed Property; provided that no such contract shall impose individual liability on the Trustee or the Trust; provided, further, that:

(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent herewith;

(ii) any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Successor Property Manager (A) request that the Special Servicer pay from the Foreclosed Property Account all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of the Foreclosed Property, and (B) remit all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer, as soon as practicable but in no event later than the Business Day immediately following receipt, for deposit into the Foreclosed Property Account;

(iii) none of the provisions of this Section 3.14 relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Successor Property Manager shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its ordinary and regularly recurring duties and obligations to the Trust Fund on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders with respect to the operation and management of the Foreclosed Property; and

(iv) the Successor Property Manager shall be permitted to perform construction (including renovations) on the Foreclosed Property only if the construction was more than 10% complete at the time default on the Whole Loan became imminent.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled, and to the extent required by the REMIC Provisions, shall be required, to enter into an agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. All REO Management Fees shall be Trust Fund Expenses payable from the Foreclosed Property Account or subject to reimbursement pursuant to

-103-

Section 3.4(c)(vi). The Special Servicer agrees to monitor the performance of the Successor Property Manager and to enforce the obligations of the Successor Property Manager on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders. Expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in connection herewith shall qualify as Property Protection Advances.

(e) On or before the last day of each Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the Foreclosed Property Account and remit to the Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account the proceeds and collections received or collected since the preceding Remittance Date through the Business Day prior to the Remittance Date on or with respect to the Foreclosed Property (including any funds no longer needed in any reserves established as provided below), net of expenses paid therefrom and amounts reasonably expected to be needed to fund any reserves deemed necessary for the operation, preservation and protection of the Foreclosed Property in the event that the Foreclosed Property is a real property, including without limitation, the creation of reasonable reserves for working capital, repairs, replacements and necessary capital improvements and other related expenses.

3.15. Sale of the Foreclosed Property. (a) In the event that title to the Mortgaged Property is acquired for the benefit of the Certificateholders in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, the deed, certificate of sale or other comparable document shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, as trustee for the Holders of the BXP Trust 2021-601L, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2021-601L, or their nominee (which shall not include the Special Servicer), on behalf of the Trust Fund or as otherwise contemplated pursuant to Section 8.10. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders, shall sell the Foreclosed Property as expeditiously as appropriate in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the REMIC Provisions, but in no event later than the time period set forth in Section 12.2 in a manner provided under this Section 3.15.

(b) If the Special Servicer or an Affiliate acquires the Foreclosed Property in the name of and on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders, the Special Servicer shall be empowered, subject to the Code and to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with the management and operation of the Foreclosed Property in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, all on such terms and for such period as the Special Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders as a collective whole, as if they constituted a single lender (taking into account the subordination of the Trust B Notes to the A Notes) and consistent with the REMIC Provisions.

(c) Subject to the consent and consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder and the consultation rights of the Companion Loan Holders, the Special Servicer shall accept the highest cash offer for Foreclosed Property received from any Person. However, in no event may such offer be less than an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) the portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan with respect to such Foreclosed Property, (ii) unreimbursed Property Protection Advances and Administrative Advances and Companion Loan Advances and all accrued and unpaid interest on Advances, (iii) fees and amounts owed to the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee with respect to such Foreclosed Property, and (iv) all unpaid interest, if any, accrued with respect to the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan with respect to such Foreclosed Property through

-104-

the date of sale and all reasonably estimated liquidation expenses. In the absence of any such offer, the Special Servicer shall accept the highest cash offer that it determines is a fair price based on Appraisals obtained within the last 9 months. If the highest offeror is an Interested Person or any Certificateholder, then the Trustee shall determine the fairness of the highest offer based upon such Appraisal or, if no Appraisal has been obtained within the last nine (9) months, based on an Appraisal obtained at the expense of the Trust (except to the extent such expenses are reimbursed with funds otherwise paid from amounts allocable to the Companion Loans pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement); provided that if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may designate an Independent Appraiser expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuation of or investment in comparable properties, which such expert shall be selected with reasonable care by the Trustee for the sole purpose of determining whether any such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Foreclosed Property; provided, further, that if the Trustee so designates any such third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination and the reasonable costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by the Trustee in making such determination shall be reimbursable to it first, by the Servicer as an Advance, subject to the Servicer’s determination that such amounts are not Nonrecoverable Advances, and then as a Trust Fund Expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the consent and/or consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the a higher cash offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if they constituted a single lender (taking into account the subordination of the Trust B Notes to the A Notes)), and the Special Servicer may accept a lower cash offer (from any Person other than itself or an Affiliate) if it determines, in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if they constituted a single lender. For avoidance of doubt, the Directing Certificateholder may submit bids on the Foreclosed Property in the same manner and at the same time and place as any other bidder. Neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase the Foreclosed Property.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.14 and 12.2, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Companion Loan Holders in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of the Foreclosed Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. Any sale of the Foreclosed Property shall be without recourse to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trust or the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (except that any contract of sale and assignment and conveyance documents may contain customary warranties, so long as the only recourse for breach thereof is to the Trust) and if consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator or the Special Servicer shall have any liability to any Certificateholder with respect to the purchase price thereof accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

-105-

(e) The proceeds of any sale effected pursuant to this Section 3.15, after deduction of the expenses incurred in connection therewith, shall be deposited in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.4(a).

(f) Within 30 days of the sale of the Foreclosed Property, if not previously included in a CREFC^® Report provided by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall provide to the Servicer, the Trustee, the Companion Loan Holders and the Certificate Administrator a statement of accounting for the Foreclosed Property, including, without limitation, (i) the date the Foreclosed Property was acquired in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, (ii) the date of disposition of the Foreclosed Property, (iii) the gross sale price and related selling and other expenses, (iv) accrued interest with respect to the outstanding balance of the Whole Loan immediately prior to the acquisition of the Foreclosed Property, calculated from the date of acquisition to the disposition date, and (v) such other information as the Trustee, the Companion Loan Holders or Certificate Administrator may reasonably request.

(g) If the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or the Mortgaged Property becomes Foreclosed Property, the Servicer shall prepare and file on a timely basis the reports of foreclosures and abandonments of the Mortgaged Property required by Section 6050J of the Code and the reports of discharges of indebtedness income in respect of the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans required by Section 6050P of the Code.

(h) The Special Servicer shall be required to deliver to the Servicer such reports and other information as the Servicer needs in its reasonable discretion to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

3.16. Sale of the Whole Loan.

(a) (i) Within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event and notice of the occurrence is received by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall order (but shall not be required to have received) an Appraisal. The Servicer shall promptly notify in writing the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Companion Loan Holders and the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) of the occurrence of such Special Servicing Loan Event. Upon delivery by the Servicer of the notice described in the preceding sentence, and subject to the rights of the Directing Certificateholder, the Special Servicer may offer to sell to any Person the Whole Loan or may offer to purchase the Whole Loan, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, that no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments thereon and such a sale would be in the best economic interests of the Trust and the Companion Loan Holders as a collective whole as if they constituted a single lender (taking into account the subordination of the Trust B Notes to the A Notes) on a net present value basis. The Special Servicer shall provide the Trustee, the Companion Loan Holders, the Certificate Administrator, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties and the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event) not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell the Whole Loan, in which case the Special Servicer is required to accept the highest offer received from any Person (other than any Interested Person) for the Whole Loan so long as such offer is at least equal to the Loan Purchase Price. At the Special Servicer’s option, if it has received no offer at least equal to the Loan

-106-

Purchase Price therefor, an Interested Person (other than the Manager or Borrower Affiliate) may purchase the Whole Loan at the Loan Purchase Price. Any Companion Loan is to be sold together with the Mortgage Loan, subject to this Section 3.16 and any additional requirements set forth in the Co-Lender Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 5 of the Co-Lender Agreement).

(ii) In the absence of any offer and purchase at least equal to the Loan Purchase Price, the Special Servicer shall accept the highest offer received from any Person that is determined by the Special Servicer to be a fair price for the Whole Loan. In determining whether any offer from a person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any defaulted Whole Loan, the Special Servicer is required to take into account (in addition to the results of any appraisal, updated appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior nine months), among other factors, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. However, if the highest offeror is a Person who is the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (or any of its Affiliates), the Property Manager, any Borrower Affiliate, an Other Depositor, the master servicer, the special servicer (or any independent contractor engaged by such special servicer) or the trustee for an Other Securitization Trust, a Companion Loan Holder or any known Affiliate of any of them (any such Person, an “Interested Person”), then the Trustee (based upon, among other things, the Appraisals ordered pursuant to the preceding paragraph (the cost of which shall be paid by the Servicer as a Property Protection Advance unless it would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance) and copied or otherwise delivered to the Trustee and any other information reasonably requested by the Trustee) shall determine if the highest offer is a fair price; provided that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (A) it is the highest offer received and (B) if such offer is less than the applicable Loan Purchase Price, at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. Any such determination shall be binding upon all parties. All reasonable costs and fees of the Trustee and any third party hired by the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement in making such determination shall be reimbursable to it first, by the Servicer as an Advance, or if the Servicer determines that such amounts are Nonrecoverable Advances, then as a Trust Fund Expense (except to the extent such expense is reimbursed with funds otherwise paid from amounts allocable to the Companion Loans pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement). The Directing Certificateholder may submit bids on the defaulted Mortgage Loan in the same manner and at the same time and place as any other bidder. If the Trustee designates any such third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. Neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase the Whole Loan.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if an Interested Person offers to purchase the Whole Loan and the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the Interested Person or as a Trust Fund Expense (except to the extent such expense is reimbursed with funds otherwise paid from amounts allocable to the Companion Loans pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement), as set forth below) designate an Independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuation

-107-

of or investment in loans similar to the Whole Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee for the sole purpose of determining whether any such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Whole Loan. If the Trustee designates any such third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the reasonable costs of all Appraisals, property condition assessments and broker opinions of value incurred by the Trustee or any such third party pursuant to this paragraph shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable by, the Interested Person, and if such fees or costs are not reimbursed by such Interested Person, such expense shall be reimbursable to it first, by the Servicer as an Advance, subject to the Servicer’s determination that such amounts are not Nonrecoverable Advances, and then, if not paid by the Servicer as an Advance, paid as a Trust Fund Expense (except to the extent such expense is reimbursed with funds otherwise paid from amounts allocable to the Companion Loans pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement); provided that the Trustee shall not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. If such amounts are reimbursed from amounts allocable to the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer (with respect to the Whole Loan when it is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan) or Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or Foreclosed Property) will be required, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account allocable to the Mortgage Loan, if any, to (i) promptly notify the Companion Loan Holders and (ii) use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to exercise on behalf of the Trust the rights of the Trust under the Co-Lender Agreement to obtain reimbursement for a pro rata portion (based on the principal balances of the Notes) of such amount allocable to the Companion Loans from the Companion Loan Holders.

(iv) The Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept a higher offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that the rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (as a collective whole as if they constituted a single lender, taking into account the subordination of the Trust B Notes to the A Notes). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that the acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders as collective whole as if they constituted a single lender (taking into account the subordination of the Trust B Notes to the A Notes) on a net present value basis (for example if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable in other respects), provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to sell the Whole Loan prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date.

(v) Unless and until the Whole Loan is sold pursuant to this Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall pursue such other resolution strategies with respect to the Whole Loan, including, without limitation, workout and foreclosure, as the Special Servicer may deem appropriate, consistent with the Asset Status Report, Accepted Servicing Practices and the REMIC Provisions.

-108-

(b) Any sale of the Whole Loan by the Special Servicer shall be subject to the consultation rights of the Risk Retention Consultation Parties as described in Section 9.3 herein and the rights of the Companion Loan Holders.

(c) The right of the Special Servicer to purchase or sell the Whole Loan after the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event shall terminate, and shall not be exercisable as set forth in clause (a) above (or if exercised but the purchase of the Whole Loan has not yet occurred, the Special Servicer’s right shall terminate and such exercise shall be of no further force or effect) if the Whole Loan is no longer delinquent as a result of any of the following: (i) the Special Servicing Loan Event has ceased pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (ii) the Whole Loan has become subject to a fully executed agreement reflecting the terms of the workout arrangement or (iii) the Whole Loan has otherwise been resolved (including by a full or discounted pay-off).

(d) Any sale of the Whole Loan shall be for cash only, and shall be in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Co-Lender Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Special Servicer shall not sell the Whole Loan pursuant to Section 3.16(a) without the written consent of the Companion Loan Holders (provided that such consent is not required from a Companion Loan Holder if such Companion Loan Holder is the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the Companion Loan Holders: (a) at least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Whole Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent appraisal for the Whole Loan, and any documents in the Mortgage File reasonably requested by such Companion Loan Holder that are material to the price of the Whole Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that such Companion Loan Holder may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. The Companion Loan Holders shall be permitted to make offers to purchase, and either such party is permitted to be the purchaser at any sale of, the Whole Loan.

3.17. Servicing Compensation. The Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to the Mortgage Loan, the Companion Loans and any Foreclosed Property payable monthly from the Collection Account from payments of interest on the Mortgage Loan or the Companion Loans or otherwise in accordance with and subject to Section 3.4(c)(iii); provided that if such collections on the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans are not sufficient to pay all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees on the Whole Loan upon the final liquidation of the Whole Loan, any accrued but unpaid Servicing Fees will be payable out of other amounts on deposit with respect to the Whole Loan in accordance with Section 3.4(c)(vi). The Servicer shall be entitled to retain as compensation any late payment charges and certain other customary charges and fees to the extent described below, as well as reimbursement for all other costs or expenses incurred by it in performing its duties hereunder other than: (i) fees of any sub-servicer and the expenses of any sub-servicer that would not be reimbursable to Servicer if such expenses were

-109-

incurred by the Servicer; (ii) the cost of any fidelity bond or errors and omissions policy required by Section 3.11(d); (iii) overhead expenses of the Servicer including but not limited to those which may properly be allocable under the Servicer’s accounting system or otherwise to the Servicer’s activities under this Agreement or the income derived by it hereunder including the costs to the Servicer associated with employees of the Servicer performing services in connection with the obligations of the Servicer hereunder; and (iv) costs and expenses arising from the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Servicer (the “Servicer Customary Expenses”).

In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to the following items as additional servicing compensation, to the extent that such items are actually collected on the Whole Loan: (i) (x) so long as the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 50% of the Modification Fees actually collected during the related Collection Period and paid in connection with a consent, approval or other action that the Servicer is not permitted to take or grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and (y) so long as the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of the Modification Fees actually collected during the related Collection Period and paid in connection with a consent, approval or other action that the Servicer is permitted to take or grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement; (ii) so long as the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of Assumption Fees collected during the related Collection Period in connection with a consent, approval or other action that the Servicer is permitted to take or grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and 50% of Assumption Fees collected during the related Collection Period in connection with a consent, approval or other action that the Servicer is not permitted to take or grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement; (iii) so long as the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of Assumption Application Fees collected during the related Collection Period; (iv) so long as the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of consent fees in connection with a consent that involves no modification, waiver or amendment of the terms of the Whole Loan and is paid in connection with a consent the Servicer is permitted to grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and 50% of consent fees in connection with a consent that involves no modification, waiver or amendment of the terms of the Whole Loan and is paid in connection with a consent that the Servicer is not permitted to grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement; (v) any and all amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds; (vi) all or a portion of charges for beneficiary statements or demands actually paid by the Borrower; (vii) if the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of other loan processing fees actually paid by the Borrower; (viii) interest or other income earned on deposits in the Collection Account or other accounts maintained by the Servicer (but only to the extent of the net investment earnings, if any, with respect to any such account for each Collection Period and, further, in the case of a servicing account or Reserve Account, only to the extent such interest or other income is not required to be paid to the Borrower under applicable law or under the Loan Documents); (ix) 100% of late payment charges and net Default Interest that accrued when the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan to the extent not applied to pay other amounts in accordance with Section 3.4(c) and (x) 100% of defeasance fees.

-110-

If a Special Servicing Loan Event occurs and is continuing with respect to the Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive a Special Servicing Fee with respect to the Whole Loan for so long as such Special Servicing Loan Event continues as well as reimbursement for all other costs or expenses incurred by it in performing its duties hereunder other than: (i) the cost of any fidelity bond or errors and omissions policy required by Section 3.11(d); (ii) overhead expenses of the Special Servicer including but not limited to those which may properly be allocable under the Special Servicer’s accounting system or otherwise to the Special Servicer’s activities under this Agreement or the income derived by it hereunder including the costs to the Special Servicer associated with employees of the Special Servicer performing services in connection with the obligations of the Special Servicer hereunder; and (iii) costs and expenses arising from the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Special Servicer (the “Special Servicer Customary Expenses”). If a Special Servicing Loan Event is terminated following resolution of such Special Servicing Loan Event by a written agreement with the Loan Parties negotiated by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Work-out Fee on all payments of principal and interest made on the Whole Loan following such written agreement for so long as another Special Servicing Loan Event does not occur with respect to the Whole Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns after such written agreement is entered into and before or after the Special Servicing Loan Event is terminated, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Work-out Fees on all payments of principal and interest made on the Whole Loan following such written agreement (negotiated by such Special Servicer prior to its termination or resignation) for so long as another Special Servicing Loan Event does not occur and the successor special servicer shall have no rights with respect to such Work-out Fee. In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee with respect to Liquidated Property or any full, partial or discounted payoff of the Mortgage Loan or the Companion Loans or the liquidation of the Mortgage Loan or the Companion Loans as to which the Special Servicer receives Liquidation Proceeds, except that no Liquidation Fee shall be payable in connection with any repurchase of the Mortgage Loan (or any allocable portion thereof) by the Mortgage Loan Sellers pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or a Companion Loan under an Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement (so long as such repurchase occurs within the 90 day time period required by the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement for the Mortgage Loan Sellers to cure or repurchase the Mortgage Loan or a portion of the Mortgage Loan or such time period required by the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement relating to any Other Securitization Trust (plus any applicable extension period)), or in connection with the sale of the Mortgage Loan by the Special Servicer to the Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.16 hereof. The Liquidation Fee shall be payable from, and shall be calculated using the related Net Liquidation Proceeds. Each of the foregoing fees shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.4(a). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to the Whole Loan and any amount collected in a Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Work-out Fee or a Liquidation Fee, but not both.

The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to the following items as additional special servicing compensation, to the extent that such items are actually collected on the Whole Loan: (i) if the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or with respect to a Foreclosed Property, 100% of Modification Fees actually collected during the related Collection Period; (ii) if the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 50% of Modification Fees collected during the related Collection Period in connection with a consent, approval or other action that the

-111-

Servicer is not permitted to take or grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement; (iii) if the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of Assumption Fees collected during the related Collection Period and if the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 50% of Assumption Fees collected during the related Collection Period in connection with a consent, approval or other action that the Servicer is not permitted to take or grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement; (iv) if the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of Assumption Application Fees collected during the related Collection Period; (v) if the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of consent fees in connection with a consent that involves no modification, waiver or amendment of the terms of the Whole Loan and if the Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 50% of consent fees in connection with a consent that involves no modification, waiver or amendment of the terms of the Whole Loan and is paid in connection with a consent that the Servicer is not permitted to grant in the absence of the consent or approval (or deemed consent or approval) of the Special Servicer under this Agreement; (vi) if the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, all or a portion of charges for beneficiary statements or demands and other loan processing fees actually paid by the Borrower; (vii) if the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, 100% of other loan processing fees actually paid by the Borrower; (viii) interest or other income earned on deposits in the Foreclosed Property Account (but only to the extent of the net investment earnings, if any, for each Collection Period); and (ix) 100% of late payment charges and Default Interest (to the extent not applied to pay other amounts pursuant to Section 3.4(c)) that accrue when the Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement for an expense incurred under this Agreement or in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder unless (i) the amount of such payment to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is reimbursed to the Trust Fund by the Loan Parties (to the extent the Loan Parties are required to do so under the Loan Agreement); (ii) failure of the Loan Parties to reimburse for such payment constitutes a Mortgage Loan Event of Default; (iii) such expense would qualify as an “unanticipated expense incurred by the REMIC” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) or is otherwise an unanticipated expense (it being understood that the Servicer Customary Expenses and the Special Servicer Customary Expenses are not unanticipated); or (iv) such reimbursement is expressly provided for herein or such expense is expressly described herein as a Trust Fund Expense.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of the Servicer’s right to receive all or any portion of the servicing compensation (or the Special Servicer’s right to receive all or any portion of the Special Servicing Fee) or the Servicer’s right to other servicing compensation provided for herein shall be made, and any such attempted transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition shall be void, unless such transfer is made to a successor Servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, in connection with the assumption by such successor of the duties hereunder pursuant to Section 7.2.

As compensation for its activities hereunder, on each Distribution Date the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to the Certificate Administrator Fee (including that portion which is payable to the Trustee as the Trustee Fee). Except as otherwise provided herein,

-112-

the Certificate Administrator’s fee includes all routine expenses of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Authenticating Agent. Each of the Trustee’s and Certificate Administrator’s rights to the Certificate Administrator Fee (including that portion of the Certificate Administrator Fee that represents the Trustee Fee, which is payable to the Trustee) may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Trustee’s or Certificate Administrator’s, as applicable, responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.

The Special Servicer and its Affiliates shall be prohibited from receiving or retaining any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees and any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates shall be remitted to the Servicer to be deposited by the Servicer into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of the receipt of such Disclosable Special Servicer Fees by the Special Servicer or its Affiliates. On any Distribution Date immediately following such receipt, the Special Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer on the Determination Date related to such Distribution Date, and the Servicer shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator, without charge, one (1) Business Day prior to the Distribution Date an electronic report which may include HTML, word or excel compatible format, clean and searchable PDF format or such other format as mutually agreeable between the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer that discloses and contains an itemized listing of any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date.

In no event shall the 17g-5 Information Provider disclose on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website which Rating Agency requested such additional information. In addition, upon delivery by the Depositor to the 17g-5 Information Provider (in an electronic format mutually agreed upon by the Depositor and the 17g-5 Information Provider) of information designated by the Depositor as having been previously made available to NRSROs by the Depositor prior to the Closing Date, the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such information on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b).

(c) Upon the request of a Certificateholder or any Beneficial Owner or a prospective purchaser of a Certificate that is a QIB and is designated as a prospective purchaser by a Certificateholder or Beneficial Owner and, in any case, has delivered an Investor Certification in the form of Exhibit K-1 hereto to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator (collectively, the “Rule 144A Information Recipients”), the Certificate Administrator shall make available to the Rule 144A Information Recipients such information as is specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act (“Rule 144A Information”), to the extent such Rule 144A Information has been received by the Certificate Administrator.

3.22. Inspections. The Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the Mortgaged Property not less frequently than once each year commencing in 2022, so long as a Special Servicing Loan Event is not then continuing; provided that the Servicer shall not be required to inspect the Mortgaged Property if the Special Servicer has inspected the Mortgaged Property in the past 12 months. The Special Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the Mortgaged Property, as applicable, and as soon as practicable following the occurrence of a Special Servicing Loan Event and annually for so long as a Special Servicing Loan Event is continuing. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall further inspect, or cause to be inspected, the Mortgaged Property whenever it receives information that the Mortgaged Property has been materially damaged, left vacant, or abandoned, or if waste is being committed thereto. All such inspections shall be performed in such manner as shall be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. The cost of the annual inspections referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall

-115-

be an expense of the Servicer; the cost of all additional inspections referred to in this paragraph shall be a Trust Fund Expense (except to the extent such expense is required to be borne by the Companion Loan Holders pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement) and if paid by the Servicer shall constitute a Property Protection Advance. If such amounts are reimbursed from amounts allocable to the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer (with respect to the Whole Loan when it is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan) or Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or Foreclosed Property) will be required, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account allocable to the Mortgage Loan, if any, to (i) promptly notify the Companion Loan Holders and (ii) use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to exercise on behalf of the Trust the rights of the Trust under the Co-Lender Agreement to obtain reimbursement from the Companion Loan Holders for a pro rata portion (based on the outstanding principal balance of the Notes) of such amount allocable to the Companion Loans. The Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall prepare a written report of inspection and deliver it to the Certificate Administrator and the Companion Loan Holders in electronic format. The Certificate Administrator shall post such report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b).

3.23. Advances. (a) In the event that all or a portion of any Monthly Payment (other than the Balloon Payment and Default Interest) or an Assumed Monthly Payment, as applicable representing interest on the Mortgage Loan has not been received by the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Remittance Date, the Servicer, subject to its determination that such amounts are not Nonrecoverable Advances, shall make an advance on such Remittance Date to the Distribution Account, in an amount equal to such Monthly Payment (or portion thereof) (or in the amount of the Assumed Monthly Payment, or portion thereof, as applicable) with respect to the Mortgage Loan that has not been received by the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to such Remittance Date (net of the Servicing Fee with respect to the Mortgage Loan, which shall not be paid to the Servicer until funds in the Collection Account are available for payment of such fee); provided that neither the Servicer nor any other party shall be entitled to interest accrued on the amount of any Monthly Payment Advance with respect to the Mortgage Loan if the delinquent amount of the Monthly Payment (or, if applicable, the Assumed Monthly Payment) in respect of such Mortgage Loan is received by the Servicer by 2:00 p.m., New York time, on such Remittance Date. The portion of any Monthly Payment Advance equal to the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee for the Mortgage Loan and such Distribution Date will not be remitted to the Certificate Administrator but will be remitted to CREFC^® by the Servicer. The Servicer shall also advance in respect of each Payment Date following (x) a delinquency in the payment of the Balloon Payment of the Mortgage Loan or foreclosure (or acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or comparable conversion) of the Whole Loan or (y) not later than the related Remittance Date, to the Distribution Account, the amount of any Assumed Monthly Payment deemed due with respect to the Mortgage Loan on such Payment Date (net of the Servicing Fees). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the amount of interest and/or principal on the Mortgage Loan is reduced as a result of any modification to the Mortgage Loan, any Monthly Payment Advance made with respect to such modified Mortgage Loan shall be in such amounts as may be required as a result of such reduction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and subject to the determination of nonrecoverability provided in this Section 3.23, in the event that the Mortgaged Property becomes Foreclosed Property, the Servicer shall continue to make advances as required pursuant to this Section 3.23(a) with respect to each Payment Date following such event in an amount equal to the Monthly Payment or

-116-

Assumed Monthly Payment, as applicable, due or deemed due with respect to the Mortgage Loan on such Payment Date, as if the Mortgaged Property had not become a Foreclosed Property and the Mortgage Loan continued to be outstanding. If and to the extent such information is not already included in the Distribution Date Statement for the month in which such Monthly Payment Advance is made, the Servicer shall notify the master servicer and trustee with respect to each Other Securitization Trust of the amount of any Monthly Payment Advance made pursuant to this Section 3.23(a) within two Business Days of making such Advance. The Servicer shall maintain a record of each Monthly Payment Advance it has made pursuant to this Section 3.23(a) on the Mortgage Loan and shall notify the Certificate Administrator thereof in the appropriate CREFC^® Reports in order to permit allocation thereof pursuant to Sections 3.4 and 3.5. In the event that the Servicer does not remit any amounts required to be remitted to the Certificate Administrator on each Remittance Date (including any amounts required to be remitted pursuant to Section 3.5 and any required Monthly Payment Advance) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account on the Remittance Date, the Servicer shall pay to the Certificate Administrator interest on such amounts at the federal funds rate for the period from and including the Remittance Date to but excluding the Distribution Date or, if earlier, the actual remittance date. Neither the Servicer nor the Trustee will be required to make a Companion Loan Advance or any administrative advance in respect of any Companion Loan. Neither the Servicer nor the Trustee will be entitled to interest on any Monthly Payment Advance on the Mortgage Loan until the related Loan Payment Date has passed. The Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will each be entitled to reimbursement for a Monthly Payment Advance and any Administrative Advance from any collections on the Whole Loan prior to any distributions to the Certificateholders.

At any time that a Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount exists with respect to the Whole Loan, the amount that would otherwise be required to be advanced by the Servicer in respect of delinquent payments of interest on the Mortgage Loan shall be reduced by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the then-outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan minus the Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount allocable to the Mortgage Loan (including any deemed Trust Appraisal Reduction Amount) and the denominator of which is the then-outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Servicer shall make Monthly Payment Advances on the basis of the original terms of the Mortgage Loan, including if the Mortgage Loan is subject to a forbearance agreement or other temporary deferral or payment accommodation, unless (a) the terms of the Mortgage Loan have been permanently modified to reduce or forgive a monetary obligation or (b) such advance has been determined to be non-recoverable.

(b) Subject to Section 3.23(e), the Servicer shall advance, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders, to the extent it determines such amount is recoverable, all customary and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer or the Special Servicer in the performance of its respective servicing obligations, including, but not limited to, the costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) the preservation, restoration, operation and protection of the Mortgaged Property that, in the Servicer’s sole discretion, exercised in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, are necessary to prevent an immediate or material loss to the Trust’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, (ii) the payment of (A) real estate taxes, assessments, ground rents and governmental charges that may be levied or assessed against any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates or the Mortgaged Property or

-117-

revenues therefrom or that become liens on the Mortgaged Property, (B) insurance premiums and (C) the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) to the extent not paid by the applicable Loan Parties that are incurred in connection with a sale of the Whole Loan, the negotiation of a workout of the Whole Loan, an assumption of the Whole Loan or a release of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage, (iii) any enforcement or judicial proceedings, including foreclosures and including, but not limited to, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs for third party experts, including Independent Appraisers, environmental and engineering consultants, and (iv) the management, operation and liquidation of the Mortgaged Property if the Mortgaged Property is acquired by the Trust (collectively, “Property Protection Advances”). In addition, subject to Section 3.23(e), the Servicer shall advance amounts eligible for withdrawal from the Collection Account pursuant to clauses (iii) (other than Servicing Fees), (iv)(b), (v) (to the extent reimbursements of such amounts are owed to the Trustee only), (vi), (viii) and (x) of Section 3.4(c) (collectively, “Administrative Advances”) on or prior to the related Distribution Date to the extent (A) such amounts are not paid from the Collection Account pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.4(c) and (B) it determines that such amounts are payable or reimbursable by the Borrower and would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance. During the continuation of a Special Servicing Loan Event, the Special Servicer shall give the Servicer and the Trustee not less than five (5) Business Days’ written notice before the date on which the Servicer is requested to make any Property Protection Advance with respect to the Whole Loan or any Foreclosed Property; provided, however, that only three (3) Business Days’ written notice shall be required in respect of Property Protection Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis (which may include, without limitation, Property Protection Advances required to make tax or insurance payments). In addition, the Special Servicer shall provide the Servicer with such information in its possession as the Servicer may reasonably request to enable the Servicer to determine whether a requested Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. Subject to Section 6.3, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Special Servicer requests that the Servicer make an Advance, the Servicer may conclusively rely on such request as evidence that such advance is not a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request more frequently than once per calendar month with respect to Advances other than emergency Advances (although such request may relate to more than one Advance). The Special Servicer shall not be obligated to make any Advance.

(c) To the extent the Servicer fails to make an Advance that it is required to make under this Agreement, the Trustee shall be required to make such Advance pursuant to Section 7.6. It is understood that the obligation of the Servicer and the Trustee (pursuant to Section 7.6) to make such Advances is mandatory, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, and shall continue to apply with respect to the Mortgage Loan after any modification or amendment of the Whole Loan pursuant to Section 3.24 hereof, beyond the Maturity Date of the Whole Loan if a payment default shall have occurred on such date and through any court appointed stay period or similar payment delay resulting from any insolvency of any Loan Party or related bankruptcy, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, subject to the requirement of recoverability, until the earliest of (i) the payment in full of the Whole Loan, (ii) the date on which the entirety of the Mortgaged Property becomes liquidated or (iii) the date on which the Whole Loan is sold.

-118-

(d) Interest on each Advance made by the Servicer or the Trustee shall accrue for each day that such Advance is outstanding at a rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate (the “Advance Rate”) for each such day (or the most recent day on which the Prime Rate was reported, if not reported on such day) on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed in a month. Interest on the Advances shall compound annually. If the context requires, each reference to the reimbursement or payment of an Advance also includes, whether or not specifically referred to, payment or reimbursement of interest thereon at the Advance Rate through but excluding the date of payment or reimbursement.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be obligated to make an Advance only to the extent that the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, has determined that such Advance, together with interest thereon at the Advance Rate, would not constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance if made. The Trustee and the Servicer, in that order, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any such Advances relating to the Mortgage Loan or the Whole Loan, as applicable, from the Collection Account and shall obtain such reimbursement in accordance with Section 3.4(c). If the context requires, each reference to the reimbursement or payment of an Advance shall be deemed to include, whether or not specifically referred to, payment or reimbursement of interest thereon at the Advance Rate through but excluding the date of payment or reimbursement.

(f) The determination by the Servicer or the Trustee that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by the delivery of an Officer’s Certificate to the Companion Loan Holders, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee (if such determination is made by the Servicer), the Servicer and the Special Servicer, that sets forth the determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations forming the basis of such determination with supporting documents attached. Such Officer’s Certificate shall be made available to any Privileged Person by the Certificate Administrator posting such Officer’s Certificate to the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 8.15(b). The costs of any appraisals, engineering reports, environmental reports or surveys and other information requested by the Servicer or the Trustee establishing an Advance as a Nonrecoverable Advance shall be treated as Trust Fund Expenses (except to the extent such expenses are reimbursed with funds otherwise paid from amounts allocable to the Companion Loans pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement), payable from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.4(c), and shall constitute a Property Protection Advance if paid by the Servicer or the Trustee from its funds. If such amounts are reimbursed from amounts allocable to the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer (with respect to the Whole Loan when it is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan) or Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or Foreclosed Property) shall, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account allocable to the Mortgage Loan, if any, to (i) promptly notify the Companion Loan Holders and (ii) use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to exercise on behalf of the Trust the rights of the Trust under the Co-Lender Agreement to obtain reimbursement for a pro rata portion (based on the principal balances of the Notes) of such amount allocable to the Companion Loans from the Companion Loan Holders (including, if such amounts cannot be recovered from the Whole Loan, from general collections of the related Other Securitization Trust, if applicable). Subject to Section 6.3, the Servicer’s reasonable determination of nonrecoverability in accordance with the above provisions shall be conclusive and binding on the Trustee and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively

-119-

thereupon. The Trustee, in determining whether or not a proposed Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall make such determination in its commercially reasonable judgment, solely in its capacity as Trustee.

(g) The Servicer and the Trustee are not obligated to advance or pay (i) delinquent scheduled payments with respect to any Companion Loans, (ii) any Balloon Payment with respect to the Mortgage Loan (but are obligated to advance the related Assumed Monthly Payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), (iii) any Default Interest, late payment charges or Prepayment Fees, (iv) amounts required to cure any damages resulting from Uninsured Causes (except as required pursuant to Section 3.12(c)), any failure of the Mortgaged Property to comply with any applicable law, including any environmental law, or (except in connection with the foreclosure or other acquisition of the Mortgaged Property in accordance with Section 3.12 upon the occurrence of a Mortgage Loan Event of Default) to investigate, test, monitor, contain, clean up, or remedy an environmental condition present at the Mortgaged Property, (v) any losses arising with respect to defects in the title to the Mortgaged Property, (vi) any costs of capital improvements to the Mortgaged Property other than those necessary to prevent an immediate or material loss to the Trust’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, or (vii) any monthly payment advances or administrative advances with respect to the Companion Loans.

(h) With respect to the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer will be permitted to make its own determination that it has made a Monthly Payment Advance that is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Monthly Payment Advance, if made would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance thereto independently of any determination made by any servicer of any Companion Loan. If the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, receives written notice from any such servicer, that it has determined, with respect to any Companion Loan, that any proposed advance of principal and/or interest would be, or any outstanding advance of principal and/or interest is, a nonrecoverable advance, such determination will not be binding on the Certificateholders, the Servicer or the Trustee.

(i) The Servicer or the Trustee may consider (among other things) the following when making a non-recoverability determination: (a) the existence of any outstanding Nonrecoverable Advance (plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon) with respect to the Mortgage Loan, the Whole Loan or any Foreclosed Property the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Servicer or the Trustee, (b) the obligations of the Borrower under the terms of the Whole Loan as it may have been modified, (c) the Mortgaged Property in its “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices in the case of the Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its commercially reasonable judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to the Mortgaged Property, (d) future expenses and (e) the timing of recoveries.

3.24. Modifications of Loan Documents. (a) (i) The Servicer (if no Special Servicing Loan Event has occurred and is continuing)(subject to the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer in the case of a Major Decision) or the Special Servicer (if a Special Servicing Loan Event occurs and is continuing) may, subject to (x) the Special Servicer obtaining the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (subject to limitations on such consent pursuant to Section 9.3(a) herein) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event, and (y) the consultation and

-120-

review rights of the Directing Certificateholder (subject to limitations on such rights pursuant to Section 9.3(a) herein) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, modify, waive or amend any term of the Whole Loan if such modification, waiver or amendment (a) is consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and (b) does not either (i) cause the Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or (ii) subject the Trust REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions (and the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may obtain and be entitled to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel in connection with such determination). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event may the Servicer or the Special Servicer permit an extension of the Maturity Date beyond the date that is the earlier of (a) seven (7) years prior to the latest Rated Final Distribution Date and (b) 20 years or, to the extent consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices giving due consideration to the remaining term of the ground lease, 10 years, prior to the end of the current term of the ground lease, plus any options to extend the ground lease exercisable unilaterally by the Borrower. In connection with (i) the release of the Mortgaged Property or portion thereof from the lien of the related Mortgage or (ii) the taking of the Mortgaged Property or portion thereof by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the Loan Documents require the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to calculate the loan-to-value ratio of the remaining portion of the Mortgaged Property, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the Mortgage Loan, then, unless then permitted by the REMIC Provisions, such calculation shall exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any. The Servicer shall provide to the Special Servicer notice of all Borrower requests related to any Whole Loan modification or assumption and, so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Special Servicer shall forward such notice to the Directing Certificateholder.

(c) All modifications, waivers or amendments of the Whole Loan shall be in writing and shall be effected in a manner consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of the Co-Lender Agreement. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer (if the notice is given by the Special Servicer), the Special Servicer (if notice is given by the Servicer) the Companion Loan Holders and the Depositor and, so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred, the Directing Certificateholder, in writing, of any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of the Whole Loan and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the Custodian (with a copy to the Trustee, the Servicer (if notice is given by the Special Servicer) and the Companion Loan Holders) an original recorded (if applicable) counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver or amendment within ten (10) Business Days following the execution and recordation (if applicable) thereof. In the event the Servicer or Special Servicer, or a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Whole Loan, modifies the interest rate applicable to the Whole Loan, the aggregate adverse economic effect of the modification (if any) required to be borne by the holders of the Trust Notes pursuant to the Co-Lender Agreement shall be applied to the Non-Retained Certificates, in reverse order of seniority. If all or any portion of the Whole Loan is modified, the Note Rates shall not change for purposes of determining the Net Trust Note Rates and distributions on the Certificates.

(d) Any modification, extension, waiver or amendment of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan and the Companion Loans will be required to be structured to be consistent with the allocation and payment priorities in the Loan Documents and the Co-Lender Agreement, such that neither the Trust as holder of the Mortgage Loan nor a Companion Loan Holder gains a

-121-

priority over the other such holder that is not reflected in the related Loan Documents and the Co-Lender Agreement.

(e) Any modification, waiver or amendment with respect to the Companion Loans may be subject to the consultation of the Companion Loan Holders and the Special Servicer as described pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement and this Agreement.

(f) Subject to Section 3.26, any modification of the Loan Documents that requires a Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to the Loan Documents, or any modification that would eliminate, modify or alter the requirement of obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmation in the Loan Documents, shall not be made without the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, first receipt of such Rating Agency Confirmation. Such Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained at the Loan Parties’ expense in accordance with the Loan Agreement or, if not so provided in the Loan Agreement or if the Loan Parties do not pay, as a Trust Fund Expense.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer and (if a Special Servicing Loan Event is continuing) the Special Servicer may, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (without any Rating Agency Confirmation or consent of the Directing Certificateholder), grant the Borrower’s request for consent to subject the Mortgaged Property to an easement, right-of-way or similar agreement for utilities, access, parking, public improvements or another similar purpose and may consent to subordination of the Whole Loan to such easement, right-of-way or similar agreement and may not condition the granting of any of the above on receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation if such condition would not be consistent with or permitted by the Loan Documents.

(h) Subject to Section 3.26 of this Agreement, prior to implementing any of the actions under the definition of RAC Decision, the Servicer or Special Servicer shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency.

(i) The Servicer, rather than the Special Servicer, shall be responsible for processing any defeasance of the Whole Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not permit the substitution of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of the Loan Agreement unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) and the Servicer has received (i) replacement collateral consisting of government securities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), which satisfies the requirements of the Loan Documents, in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments required under the terms of the Whole Loan when due, (ii) a certificate of an Independent certified public accountant to the effect that such substituted property will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity) on the Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the Loan Documents, (iii) one or more Opinions of Counsel (at the expense of the related Borrower) to the effect that the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund, will have a first priority perfected security interest in such substituted property; provided, however, that, to the extent consistent with the Loan Documents, the Borrower shall pay the cost of any such opinion as a condition to granting such defeasance, (iv) to the extent consistent with the Loan Documents, the related Borrower shall establish a single purpose entity to act as a successor mortgagor, if so required by the Rating Agency, (v) to the extent permissible under the Loan Documents, the Servicer shall use its

-122-

reasonable efforts to require the related Borrower to pay all costs of such defeasance, including but not limited to the cost of maintaining any successor mortgagor, and (vi) to the extent permissible under the Loan Documents, the Servicer shall obtain, at the expense of the Borrower, Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency. If the Servicer receives notice of a request for defeasance with respect to the Whole Loan, the Servicer shall provide upon receipt of such notice, written notice of such defeasance request to the Mortgage Loan Sellers or its respective assignee and (ii) until such time as a Mortgage Loan Seller provides written notice to the contrary, notice of a defeasance of the Whole Loan shall be delivered to such Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the notice provisions of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(j) The Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance collateral substituted for the Mortgaged Property into the Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Whole Loan in advance of its Payment Date, and not as a prepayment of the Whole Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Collection Account for a period in excess of 365 days (or 366 days in the case of a leap year).

(k) Subject to the terms of this Section 3.24, each of the Servicer and Special Servicer, respectively, shall be permitted in its sole discretion to waive all or any portion of Default Interest to the extent consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. Failure to waive any Default Interest by the Servicer or Special Servicer shall not in any way be deemed a violation of Accepted Servicing Practices.

3.25. Conflicts of Interests; Mandatory Resignation of Servicer or Special Servicer. (a) The Servicer, the Special Servicer and any agent thereof in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Servicer or the Special Servicer or such agent except as otherwise provided herein subject to the restrictions on voting set forth in the definition of Certificateholder.

(b) None of the Servicer, the Special Servicer nor any of its Affiliates shall resign from its obligations and duties as Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement, except as provided in Section 6.4. In the event that the Special Servicer becomes a Borrower Affiliate, the Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator of such affiliation. Upon receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall promptly send a request to the Special Servicer requesting that the Special Servicer resign as Special Servicer and promptly appoint a replacement special servicer in accordance with Section 6.4. In the event that no replacement Special Servicer is appointed within thirty (30) days for any reason after receipt by the Trustee of a notice of such affiliation, the Trustee may petition the court for appointment of a successor special servicer at the expense of resigning Special Servicer.

3.26. Rating Agency Confirmation. Notwithstanding the terms of the Loan Documents or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under the Loan Documents or this Agreement requires a Rating Agency Confirmation or a written confirmation from the Rating Agency that a particular action will not cause a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then-current ratings of the Certificates as a condition precedent to such action, if the party (the “Requesting Party”) seeking to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation or written confirmation has made a request to the Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation or written

-123-

confirmation and, within ten (10) Business Days of such request being sent to the Rating Agency, the Rating Agency has not replied to such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that the Rating Agency is either declining to review such request or waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation or written confirmation, then such Requesting Party shall be required to (i) confirm (through direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) that the Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation or written confirmation request, and, if it has, promptly request such Rating Agency Confirmation or written confirmation again, and (ii) if there is no response to either such Rating Agency Confirmation or written confirmation request within five (5) Business Days of such second request, then (x) with respect to any condition in any Loan Document requiring such Rating Agency Confirmation or such written confirmation or any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Whole Loan (other than as set forth in clause (y) below), such condition shall be deemed to be satisfied (provided that granting such request is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices), and (y) with respect to a replacement of the Servicer or Special Servicer, such condition shall be deemed to be satisfied if (A) the applicable replacement Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, was appointed to act as, and currently serves as, the master servicer or special servicer on a transaction level basis, as applicable, on the closing date of a commercial mortgage-backed securities transaction with respect to which Moody’s rated one or more classes of certificates and one or more of such classes of certificates are still outstanding and rated by Moody’s and (B) Moody’s has not cited servicing concerns with respect to the applicable replacement as the sole or material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other commercial mortgage-backed securities transaction serviced by the applicable servicer prior to the time of determination.

Any Rating Agency Confirmation requests made by the Servicer, Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made in writing (and email shall be sufficient as a writing), which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and shall contain all back-up material the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, reasonably deems necessary for any Rating Agency to process such request. Such written Rating Agency Confirmation request shall be provided in electronic format to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such request on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 8.15(b).

Promptly following the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination to take any action discussed in this Section 3.26 following any requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation being considered satisfied, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide written notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider of the action taken for the particular item at such time, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 8.15(b).

3.27. Miscellaneous Provisions.

Notwithstanding the terms of the Loan Documents, the other provisions of this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement, with respect to any Companion Loan as to which there exists Companion Loan Securities, if any action relating to the servicing and administration of the

-124-

Whole Loan or any Foreclosed Property, any amendment to this Agreement or replacement of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee (a “Relevant Action”) requires delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action pursuant to this Agreement, then, except as set forth below in this paragraph, such action shall also require delivery of a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation to the master servicer, the special servicer or the certificate administrator to any Other Securitization Trust as a condition precedent to such action from each Companion Loan Rating Agency. Each Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation shall be sought by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, depending on whichever such party is seeking the corresponding Rating Agency Confirmation(s) in connection with a Relevant Action. The requirement to obtain a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to any Companion Loan Securities will be permitted to be waived by the Servicer and the Special Servicer on, and will be deemed not to apply on, the same terms and conditions applicable to obtaining Rating Agency Confirmations, as set forth in this Agreement; provided, that the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, depending on which is seeking the subject Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, shall forward to one or more of its counterparts (i.e., the master servicer or special servicer, as applicable), the 17g-5 Information Provider’s counterpart, or such other party or parties (as are agreed to by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the applicable parties for the related Other Securitization Trust), at the expense of the Other Securitization Trust to the extent not borne by the Borrower, and in such format as the sender and recipient may reasonably agree, (i) the request for such Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation all materials forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider under this Agreement in connection with seeking the Rating Agency Confirmation(s) for the applicable Relevant Action at approximately the same time that such materials are forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and (ii) any other materials that the applicable Companion Loan Rating Agency may reasonably request in connection with such Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation promptly following such request.

3.28. Companion Loan Intercreditor Matters.

(a) If, pursuant to Section 2.8, or Section 3.16, the Mortgage Loan is, in its entirety, purchased or repurchased from the Trust Fund, the subsequent holder thereof shall be bound by the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement and shall assume the rights and obligations of the holder of the Trust Notes under the Co-Lender Agreement. All portions of the Mortgage File and (to the extent provided under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) other documents pertaining to the Whole Loan shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the purchaser of the Mortgage Loan in its capacity as the holder of the Trust Notes (as a result of such purchase, repurchase or substitution) and (except for the original Companion Notes) on behalf of the holders of the Companion Notes. Thereafter, such Mortgage File shall be held by the holder of the Trust Notes or a custodian appointed thereby for the benefit thereof, on behalf of itself and the Companion Loan Holders as their interests appear under the Co-Lender Agreement. If the related servicing file is not already in the possession of such party, it shall be delivered to the master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be, under any separate servicing agreement for the Whole Loan.

(b) With respect to any Companion Loan that becomes the subject of an “asset review” (or such analogous term defined in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) pursuant to the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer, the Special Servicer,

-125-

the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Custodian shall reasonably cooperate with the asset representations reviewer or any other party to the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement in connection with such asset review by providing the asset representations reviewer or such other requesting party with any documents reasonably requested by the asset representations reviewer or such other requesting party (at the expense of the Mortgage Loan Sellers or requesting party), but only to the extent (i) the requesting party or asset representations reviewer has not been able to obtain such documents from the Mortgage Loan Sellers or a party to the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (ii) such documents are in the possession of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian shall (i) have further obligations for such asset review or be bound by it or (ii) be obligated to provide such documents if providing such documents would, in its reasonable determination, be a violation of this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, but only to the extent required under the Co-Lender Agreement, the Servicer with respect to the Whole Loan when it is not a Specially Serviced Whole Loan or Special Servicer with respect to the Whole Loan when it is a Specially Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, shall consult with the Companion Loan Holders with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of the Companion Loans to the extent required under the Co-Lender Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver reports and notices to each Companion Loan Holder to the extent required under the Co-Lender Agreement.

(d) At any time after a Companion Loan has become part of an Other Securitization Trust and provided that the applicable parties hereto have received written notice (which may be by email) thereof including contact information for the master servicer and special servicer with respect to such Other Securitization Trust, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Companion Loan Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement shall be delivered to the master servicer and special servicer with respect to such Other Securitization Trust (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to such master servicer and special servicer, the party hereto that is obligated under this Agreement or the Co-Lender Agreement to deliver such notices, reports, information or other deliverables shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Co-Lender Agreement.

3.29. Additional Matters with Respect to the Mortgage Loan, any Companion Loan and the Whole Loan.

(a) In the event that the Mortgage Loan Sellers (a “Repurchasing Seller”) repurchases its Trust Notes (each, a “Repurchased Note”) in accordance with Section 2.8 of this Agreement and Section 8 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and one or more Companion Notes remain outstanding and are held by one or more Other Securitization Trusts, the Servicer and Special Servicer agree that pursuant to Sections 2 and 5 of the Co-Lender Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement and the Co-Lender Agreement shall continue to apply with respect to the servicing and administration of the Whole Loan (and the Mortgage Loan Sellers have agreed to such provisions in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) until such time as the related

-126-

successor holders of the Trust Notes and the Companion Loan Holders have entered into a replacement servicing agreement with respect to the Whole Loan or the Companion Notes are repurchased from their respective Other Securitization Trusts.

(b) Custody of the respective Loan Documents shall be held exclusively by the Custodian, and record title under the respective Loan Documents shall be held exclusively by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders, as provided under this Agreement, except that the Repurchasing Seller shall hold and retain title to its original Repurchased Notes and any related endorsements thereof.

(i) Payments from the Borrower or any other amounts received with respect to each Note shall be collected as provided in this Agreement by the Servicer and shall be applied to each related Note in accordance with the Co-Lender Agreement, subject to Section 3.29(b)(ii).

The Repurchasing Seller shall not be permitted to terminate the Servicer or Special Servicer as servicer or special servicer of the related Repurchased Note.

In no event will any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates receive distributions in reduction of its Certificate Balance that in the aggregate exceed the original Certificate Balance of such Class.

(b) On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator is required to apply amounts on deposit in the Upper-Tier Distribution Account, to the extent of the RR Interest Available Funds in the following order of priority:

-131-

(i) first, to the RR Interest, in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the RR Interest Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date;

Furthermore, in no event will any reimbursement of RR Interest Realized Losses previously allocated to a RR Interest constitute distributions of principal for any purpose or result in an additional reduction in the Certificate Balance of a RR Interest.

(c) On each Distribution Date, each Class of Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests shall be deemed to receive (A) distributions in respect of principal or reimbursement of Realized Losses in an amount equal to the amount of principal or reimbursement of the Applied Realized Loss Amounts actually distributable to its respective Related Certificates as provided in Section 4.1(a), and (B) distributions with respect of reimbursement of Realized Losses in an amount equal to the reimbursement of Realized Losses actually distributable to its respective Related Certificates, as provided in Section 4.1(h). On each Distribution Date, each Class of Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests shall be deemed to receive distributions in respect of interest in an amount equal to the sum of the Interest Distribution Amount and Interest Shortfall in respect of its Related Certificates and, with respect to the Class LA Uncertificated Interest, the Interest Distribution Amount and Interest Shortfall Amount in respect of the Class X Certificates to the extent actually distributable thereon as provided in Section 4.1(a). Amounts distributable pursuant to this paragraph are referred to herein collectively as the “Lower-Tier Distribution Amount”, and shall be made by the Certificate Administrator by deeming such Lower-Tier Distribution Amount to be withdrawn from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to be deposited in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each Distribution Date.

Amounts distributed pursuant to Section 4.1(a) shall be deemed to be withdrawn from the Lower Tier Distribution Account and distributed to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests, for deposit into the Upper-Tier Distribution Account, and to the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LT-R Interest in accordance with Section 4.1(b) (to the extent of the Non-RR Interest Available Funds), and immediately thereafter, amounts so distributed to the Upper-Tier REMIC shall be deemed to be withdrawn from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account and distributed by the Certificate Administrator in accordance with Section 4.1(a). To the extent of the RR Interest Available Funds, amounts distributed in accordance with Section 4.1(b) shall be deemed to be withdrawn from the Lower Tier REMIC Distribution Account

-132-

and distributed to the Upper Tier REMIC Distribution Account with respect to the RR Interest in the amount of the RR Interest Available Funds, and immediately thereafter, amounts so distributed to the Upper-Tier REMIC shall be deemed to be withdrawn from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account and distributed by the Certificate Administrator in accordance with Section 4.1(b).

As of any date, the principal balance of each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest shall equal its Lower-Tier Principal Amount. The Pass-Through Rate with respect to each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest shall be the rate per annum set forth in the Introductory Statement hereto.

Any amount that remains in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account on each Distribution Date after distribution of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and any Yield Maintenance Default Premium distributed pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LT-R Interest, but only to the extent of the amount remaining in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account, if any).

Distributions to the Class R Certificateholders (in respect of the Class LT-R Interest) from the Lower-Tier Distribution Account and to the Class R Certificate holders (in respect of the Class UT-R Interest) and to other Certificateholders from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account on each Distribution Date shall be made by the Certificate Administrator to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date (other than as provided in Section 10.1 in respect of the final distribution), by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities therefor; provided that the Certificate Administrator has received appropriate wire transfer instructions therefrom, or by check by first class mail to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register (in the case of the Certificateholders) or such address as has been provided to the Certificate Administrator in writing if wiring instructions have not been received at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Distribution Date.

(d) All amounts distributable to a Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.1(a) on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in each such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Such distributions shall be made on each Distribution Date (after withdrawing any amounts deposited in the Distribution Account in error to the extent funds are available for such purpose) to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities therefor, provided that the Certificate Administrator has received appropriate wire transfer instructions therefrom, or by check by first class mail to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register (or, with respect to the RR Interest, the registry of ownership) if wiring instructions have not been received at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Distribution Date. The final distribution on each Certificate and RR Interest shall be made in like manner, but, with respect to the Certificates, only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the location specified by the Certificate Administrator in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

(e) The Certificate Administrator shall, as soon as reasonably possible after notice thereof by the Servicer to the Certificate Administrator that the final distribution with

-133-

respect to any Class of Certificates or RR Interest is expected to be made, post a notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b) and mail to each Holder of such Class of Certificates on such date to the effect that:

(i) the Certificate Administrator reasonably expects based upon information previously provided to it that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates or RR Interest shall be made on such Distribution Date, but, with respect to the Certificates, only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Certificate Administrator therein specified; and

(ii) if such final distribution is made on such Distribution Date, no interest shall accrue on such Certificate from and after the end of the Certificate Interest Accrual Period related to such Distribution Date.

(f) Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six (6) months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one (1) year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. All such amounts shall be held by the Certificate Administrator in trust in accordance herewith until the expiration of a two-year period following such second notice, notwithstanding any termination of the Trust Fund. If within two (2) years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator shall, to the extent permitted by escheatment law, hold all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator hereunder and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund, at which time such amounts shall be distributed to the Depositor. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust hereunder or by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.1(f). Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator shall not be invested.

(g) The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the calculations with respect to distributions from the Trust so long as the Trust Fund has not been terminated in accordance with this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall have no duty to recompile, recalculate or verify the accuracy of information provided to it by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.18(a) and, in the absence of manifest error in such information, may conclusively rely upon it.

-134-

(h) On each Distribution Date, Non-RR Interest Realized Losses with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall be allocated to each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates in the following order:

first, to the Class E Certificates;

second, to the Class D Certificates;

third, to the Class C Certificates;

fourth, to the Class B Certificates; and

fifth, to the Class A Certificates;

in each case until the Certificate Balance of each such Class has been reduced to zero.

The Notional Amount of the Class X Certificates will be reduced by the amount of aggregate amount of any Non-RR Interest Realized Losses allocated to the Class A and Class B Certificates.

On each Distribution Date, RR Interest Realized Losses with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall be allocated to the RR Interest to reduce the Certificate Balance of the RR Interest until its Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero.

4.2. Withholding Tax. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall comply with all federal withholding requirements with respect to payments to Certificateholders and other payees that the Certificate Administrator reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of Certificateholders or payees shall not be required for any such withholding and such Certificateholders shall furnish any information as may be required for the Certificate Administrator to comply with any withholding requirements, and each Certificateholder shall be deemed by the acceptance of its Certificate to agree to provide the Certificate Administrator information relating to such Certificateholder solely to the extent necessary for the Certificate Administrator to determine any required withholding amounts. In the event the Certificate Administrator withholds any amount from interest payments or advances thereof or other amounts to any Certificateholder or payee pursuant to federal withholding requirements, amounts so withheld shall be treated as having been entirely distributed to such Certificateholder or payee, and the Certificate Administrator shall indicate the amount withheld to such Certificateholder or payee through a report.

4.3. Allocation and Distribution of Yield Maintenance Premiums. (a)(i) On any Distribution Date, the Non-Risk Retained Percentage of any Yield Maintenance Premium, if any, collected by the Servicer and allocated to the Mortgage Loan during the related Collection Period shall be remitted from the Servicer on the Remittance Date to the Certificate Administrator and shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the holders of each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates, pro rata, in an amount equal to the product of (A) a fraction whose numerator is the amount of principal distributed to such Class of Sequential Pay Certificates on such Distribution Date and whose denominator is the total amount of principal distributed to all of the Sequential Pay Certificates on such Distribution Date and (B) the Non-Risk Retained Percentage of any Yield

-135-

Maintenance Premium collected by the Servicer and allocated to the Mortgage Loan during the related Collection Period.

(ii) On any Distribution Date, the Required Risk Retained Percentage of any Yield Maintenance Premium, collected by the Servicer and allocated to the Mortgage Loan during the related Collection Period will be required to be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the RR Interest Owners, pro rata, in accordance with their respective Certificate Balances.

4.4. Statements to Certificateholders.

(b) The Certificates of each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. If the Initial Certificate Balance of any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates does not equal an integral multiple of $1,000, then a single additional Certificate of such Class may be issued in a minimum denomination of authorized Initial Certificate Balance that includes the excess of (i) the Initial Certificate Balance of such Class over (ii) the largest integral multiple of $1,000 that does not exceed such amount. The Class X Certificates shall be issued, maintained and transferred only in minimum denominations of authorized initial notional amount of not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class R Certificates shall be issued, maintained and transferred in minimum percentage interests of 10% of such Class R Certificates and in integral multiples of 1% in excess thereof. The RR Interest shall be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof; provided, however, that at all times during the Risk Retention Period, the RR Interest shall be issued only as two Definitive Certificates collectively representing 100% of the RR Interest.

(c) One authorized signatory shall sign the Certificates for the Certificate Registrar by manual or facsimile signature. If an authorized signatory whose signature is on a Certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Certificate Registrar countersigns the Certificate, the Certificate shall be valid nevertheless. A Certificate shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Certificate Registrar (who may be the same officer who executed the Certificate) manually countersigns the Certificate. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Certificate has been executed and countersigned under this Agreement.

(d) During the Risk Retention Period, the RR Interest shall only be held as a Definitive Certificate in the RR Interest Safekeeping Account by the Certificate Administrator (and the Holder of the RR Interest shall be registered on the Certificate Register), unless otherwise consented to by the Retaining Sponsor. During the Risk Retention Period, the Certificate Administrator shall hold the RR Interest in safekeeping and shall release the same only upon receipt of written instructions in accordance with Section 5.1(e), and in accordance with any authentication procedures as may be utilized by the Certificate Administrator and in accordance with this Agreement. After the release of any RR Interest, the Certificate Administrator shall have no liability with respect to the safekeeping of such released RR Interest. The Certificate Administrator shall be indemnified and held harmless for any release in connection with the preceding.

-143-

There shall be, and hereby is, established by the Certificate Administrator an account which will be designated the “RR Interest Safekeeping Account” and in which the RR Interest shall be held and which shall be governed by and subject to this Agreement. In addition, on and after the date hereof, the Certificate Administrator may establish any number of subaccounts to the RR Interest Safekeeping Account for the Holder of the RR Interest. Such subaccounts shall be marked or evidenced as being for the benefit of the Holder of the related Certificate. The RR Interest to be delivered in physical form to the Certificate Administrator shall be delivered as set forth herein. No amounts distributable to the holders of the RR Interest shall be remitted to the RR Interest Safekeeping Account, but shall be remitted directly to the Holder of the RR Interest in accordance with written instructions provided separately by the Holder of the RR Interest to the Certificate Registrar on the Closing Date. Under no circumstances by virtue of safekeeping the RR Interest shall the Certificate Administrator (i) be obligated to bring legal action or institute proceedings against any Person on behalf of the Holder of the RR Interest or (ii) have any obligation to monitor, supervise or enforce the performance of any party under the Credit Risk Retention Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely with no obligation to verify, confirm or otherwise monitor the accuracy of any information included in any written instructions provided in connection with this RR Interest Safekeeping Account and shall have no liability in connection therewith, other than with respect to the Certificate Administrator’s obligation to obtain the Retaining Sponsor’s consent prior to any release. During the Risk Retention Period and for such time as the Holder of the RR Interest may request, the Certificate Administrator shall hold the Definitive Certificate representing the RR Interest at the below location, or any other location; provided the Certificate Administrator has given notice to the Holder of the RR Interest of such new location:

Computershare Trust Company, National Association
Attn: Security Control and Transfer (SCAT)
000 X. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000

On the Closing Date, and upon completion of each transfer of the RR Interest during the Risk Retention Period, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver written confirmation to the Depositor, the Retaining Sponsor and the holder of the RR Interest substantially in the form of Exhibit N to this Agreement evidencing its receipt of the RR Interest.

The Certificate Administrator shall make available to the Holder of the RR Interest its respective account information as mutually agreed upon by the Certificate Administrator and the Holder of the RR Interest, and in accordance with the Certificate Administrator’s policies and procedures. Any transfer of the RR Interest shall be subject to Article 5 of this Agreement.

(e) In the event the Holder of the RR Interest seeks to cause the release of the RR Interest from the RR Interest Safekeeping Account, the Holder of the RR Interest shall deliver contemporaneously to the Retaining Sponsor and the Certificate Administrator (i) a written request for such release executed by the Holder of the RR Interest and (ii) a written request for the Retaining Sponsor’s consent to such release substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-6 (to be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor and delivered by the Retaining Sponsor to the Certificate Administrator). The Certificate Administrator may not consent to, or otherwise permit, any such release without its receipt of the Retaining Sponsor’s countersigned request for consent.

-144-

The Certificate Administrator shall be indemnified and held harmless for anything related to such request for release or release in connection with this Section 5.1(e), in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 8.3.

5.2. Form and Registration. (a) Each Class of the Certificates (other than the RR Interest and the Class R Certificates) sold to institutions that are non-U.S. Securities Persons in “offshore transactions” (as defined in Rule 902(h) of Regulation S) in reliance on Regulation S shall initially be represented by a temporary global Certificate in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto (each, a “Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate”), which shall be deposited on the Closing Date on behalf of the purchasers of the Certificates represented thereby with the Certificate Registrar, at its principal trust office, as custodian, for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of the Depository for the account of designated agents holding on behalf of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) and/or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”). Prior to the expiration of the 40-day period commencing on the later of the commencement of the offering and the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), beneficial interests in each Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate may be exchanged for an interest in the related permanent global certificate of the same Class (each, a “Regulation S Global Certificate”) in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.3(f). During the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate shall only be made upon delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, of a Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of any beneficial interests in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate shall not be made to the holders of such beneficial interests unless an exchange for a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Certificate of the same Class is improperly withheld or refused. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or a Regulation S Global Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided.

On the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, and the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar the Regulation S Global Certificates, which shall be held by the Certificate Registrar for purposes of effecting the exchanges contemplated by the preceding paragraph.

(b) Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, Certificates of each Class (other than the RR Interest during the Risk Retention Period) offered and sold to QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A under the Act (“Rule 144A”) (other than Class R Certificates) shall be represented by a single, global certificate in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto (each, a “Rule 144A Global Certificate” and, collectively with the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificates and the Regulation S Global Certificates, the “Global Certificates”), which shall be deposited with the Certificate Registrar or an agent of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Rule 144A Global Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by

-145-

adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided.

(c) Certificates of each Class (other than the Class R Certificates) that are offered and sold to investors that are Institutional Accredited Investors that are not QIBs and the RR Interest (during the Risk Retention Period) (the “Non-Book Entry Certificates”) shall be in the form of Definitive Certificates, substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto, issued in the name of such investors or their nominees by the Certificate Registrar who shall deliver the certificates for such Non-Book Entry Certificates to the respective beneficial owners or owners; provided, that prior to any such transfer of a Non-Book Entry Certificate, the investor executes and delivers to the Certificate Registrar an Investment Representation Letter.

(d) Owners of beneficial interests in Global Certificates of any Class shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Definitive Certificates unless: (i) the Depository advises the Certificate Registrar in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depository with respect to the Global Certificates of such Class or ceases to be a Clearing Agency, and the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor are unable to locate a qualified successor within 90 days of such notice or (ii) the Trustee has instituted or has been directed to institute any judicial proceeding to enforce the rights of the Holders of such Class and the Trustee has been advised by counsel that in connection with such proceeding it is necessary or appropriate for the Certificate Registrar to obtain possession of the Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that under no circumstances will Definitive Certificates be issued to beneficial owners of a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate. Upon notice of the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (i) or (ii) above with respect to any Certificates of a Class that are in the form of Global Certificates and upon surrender by the Depository of any Global Certificate of such Class and receipt from the Depository of instructions for reregistration, the Certificate Registrar shall issue Certificates of such Class in the form of Definitive Certificates (bearing, in the case of a Definitive Certificate issued for a Rule 144A Global Certificate, the same legends regarding transfer restrictions borne by such Global Certificate), and thereafter the Certificate Registrar shall recognize the holders of such Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders under this Agreement.

(e) If any Beneficial Owner wishes to transfer its interest in a Rule 144A Global Certificate to an Institutional Accredited Investor that is not a QIB, or wishes to transfer its interest in a Regulation S Global Certificate to a “U.S. person” (as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S) that is an Institutional Accredited Investor but not a QIB, then the transferee shall take delivery in the form of a Non-Book Entry Certificate, subject to the restrictions on the transfer of such Non-Book Entry Certificate in Section 5.3(h) of this Agreement. No such transfer shall be made and the Certificate Registrar shall not register any such transfer unless such transfer complies with the provisions of Section 5.3(h) of this Agreement applicable to transfers of Non-Book Entry Certificates. Upon acceptance for exchange or transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate for a Non-Book Entry Certificate, as provided herein, the Certificate Registrar shall endorse on the schedule affixed to the related Global Certificate (or on a continuation of such

-146-

schedule affixed to such Global Certificate and made a part thereof) an appropriate notation evidencing the date of such exchange or transfer and a decrease in the denomination of such Global Certificate equal to the denomination of such Non-Book Entry Certificate issued in exchange therefor or upon transfer thereof.

5.3. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall keep or cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office books (the “Certificate Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Administrator shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided (the Certificate Administrator, in such capacity, being the “Certificate Registrar”). In such capacities, the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for, among other things, (i) maintaining the Certificate Register and a record of the aggregate holdings of Certificates of each Class represented by a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate, a Regulation S Global Certificate and a Rule 144A Global Certificate and accepting Certificates for exchange and registration of transfer, (ii) holding the RR Interest as Definitive Certificates on behalf of each Holder of such Class pursuant to Section 5.2(e) and (iii) transmitting to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Special Servicer any notices from the Certificateholders.

(b) Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Article 5, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

If a holder of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Certificate deposited with the Certificate Registrar as custodian for the Depository wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Rule 144A Global Certificate for an interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate of the same Class, or to transfer its interest in such Rule 144A Global Certificate to a Person who is required to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate of the same Class, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of the Depository, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in such Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate.

-148-

in the Rule 144A Global Certificate of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, at its office designated in Section 5.7, of (1) instructions from Euroclear or Clearstream, if applicable, and the Depository, directing the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate equal to the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase, (2) with respect to a transfer of an interest in the Regulation S Global Certificate, information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be debited with such decrease and (3) with respect to a transfer of an interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate (but not the Regulation S Global Certificate) for an interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate, a certificate in the form of Exhibit E hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest and stating that the Person transferring such interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate is a QIB and is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, then the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce, or cause to be reduced, the Certificate Balance of the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate and to increase, or cause to be increased, the Certificate Balance of the Rule 144A Global Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate to be exchanged, and the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository, concurrently with such reduction, to credit, or cause to be credited, to the account of the Person specified in such instructions, a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate equal to the reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate and to debit, or cause to be debited, from the account of the Person making such exchange or transfer the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate that is being transferred.

The Certificate Registrar shall effect such exchange by delivering to the Depository for credit to the respective accounts of such holders, a duly executed and authenticated Regulation S Global Certificate, representing the aggregate Certificate Balance of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate initially exchanged for interests in the Regulation S Global Certificate. The delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream of the certificate or certificates referred to above may be relied upon by the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar as conclusive evidence that the certificate or certificates referred to therein has or have been delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate. Upon any exchange of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate for interests in the Regulation S Global Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall endorse the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate to reflect the reduction in the Certificate Balance represented thereby by the amount so exchanged and shall endorse the Regulation S Global Certificate to reflect the corresponding increase in the amount represented

-149-

thereby. Until so exchanged in full and except as provided therein, the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate, and the Certificates evidenced thereby, shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Regulation S Global Certificate and Rule 144A Global Certificate authenticated and delivered hereunder.

(g) Non-Book Entry Certificate to Global Certificate. If a Holder of a Non-Book Entry Certificate (other than (i) a RR Interest during the Risk Retention Period or (ii) a Class R Certificate) wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an interest in a Global Certificate of the same Class, or to transfer all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate to a Person who is entitled to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in a Global Certificate, such Holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, if applicable, and the Depository, cause the exchange of all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an equivalent beneficial interest in the appropriate Global Certificate of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, at its office designated in Section 5.7, of (1) such Non-Book Entry Certificate, duly endorsed as provided herein, (2) instructions from such Holder directing the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, to credit, or cause to be credited, a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Certificate equal to the portion of the Certificate Balance of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit G hereto (in the event that the applicable Global Certificate is the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate), in the form of Exhibit H hereto (in the event that the applicable Global Certificate is the Regulation S Global Certificate) or in the form of Exhibit I hereto (in the event that the applicable Global Certificate is the Rule 144A Global Certificate), then the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, shall cancel, or cause to be canceled, all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate, shall, if applicable, execute, authenticate and deliver to the transferor a new Non-Book Entry Certificate equal to the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion retained by such transferor and shall instruct the Depository to increase, or cause to be increased, such Global Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged and to credit, or cause to be credited, to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Certificate equal to the Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate so canceled.

(h) Exchanges of Non-Book Entry Certificates. If a holder of a Rule 144A Global Certificate, Regulation S Global Certificate or Non-Book Entry Certificate wishes at any time to transfer its interest in such Rule 144A Global Certificate, Regulation S Global Certificate or Non-Book Entry Certificate to a Person who is required to take delivery thereof in the form of a Non-Book Entry Certificate, then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon): (i) an investment representation letter from the proposed transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit P to this Agreement and (ii) if required by the Certificate Registrar, an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar to the effect that such transfer shall be made without registration under the Act, together with the written certification(s) as to the facts surrounding such transfer from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and/or the proposed transferee on which such opinion of counsel is based (such opinion of counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust or of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in their respective capacities as such).

-150-

(i) Other Exchanges. In the event that a Global Certificate is exchanged for a Definitive Certificate, such Certificates may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of clauses (c) through (f) above (including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S, at the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Certificate Registrar.

(j) Restricted Period. Prior to the termination of the Restricted Period with respect to the issuance of the Certificates, transfers of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate to U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to transfers made pursuant to the provisions of clause (e) above.

(k) [Reserved].

(l) All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the Certificate Registrar’s customary procedures.

(m) No Class E or Class R Certificate may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be (i) an employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA Section 4975 of the Code or a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) or other plan that is subject to any federal, state or local law that is, to a material extent, similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) (each, a “Plan”), or (ii) any Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of a Plan to purchase such Certificate, other than, in the case of the Class E Certificates, an insurance company using assets of its general account under circumstances, whereby such purchase and the subsequent holding of such Class E Certificates by such insurance company will be exempt from the prohibited transaction provisions of Sections 406 and 407 of ERISA and Code Section 4975 under Sections I and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60, or, in the case of a plan subject to Similar Law, where the acquisition, holding and disposition of such Certificate will not constitute or result in a non-exempt violation under Similar Law. Each prospective transferee of a Class E or Class R Certificate in the form of a Definitive Certificate shall deliver to the transferor, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit J-3, stating that the prospective transferee is not a Person described in clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence. Each transferee of a Class E or Class R Certificate in the form of a Global Certificate will be deemed to have made the representation that it is not a Person described in clause (i) or (ii) of the second preceding sentence. No Class A, Class X, Class B, Class C or Class D Certificate may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be a Plan, or any Person acting on behalf of any Plan or using the assets of a Plan to purchase such Certificate, unless (A) the purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1) of Regulation D of the Act and (B) the acquisition, holding and disposition of such Certificate by the purchaser will not constitute or otherwise result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or a non-exempt violation of Similar Law). Any attempted or purported transfer in violation of these transfer restrictions shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported transferee and shall not relieve the transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable Certificates.

-151-

(n) Each Person who has or acquires any Residual Ownership Interest shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Residual Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and the rights of each Person acquiring any Residual Ownership Interest are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(i) Each Person acquiring or holding any Residual Ownership Interest shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall not acquire or hold such Residual Ownership Interest as agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) on behalf of any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee. Any such Person shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change in its status (or the status of the beneficial owner of such Residual Ownership Interest) as a Permitted Transferee. Any acquisition of a Residual Ownership Interest by a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee or by a Person who is acting as an agent of a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee shall be void ab initio and of no effect, and the immediately preceding owner who was a Permitted Transferee shall be restored to registered and beneficial ownership of the Residual Ownership Interest as soon and as fully as possible.

(ii) No Residual Ownership Interest may be transferred, and no such transfer shall be registered in the Certificate Register, without the express written consent of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not recognize the transfer, and such proposed transfer shall not be effective, without such consent with respect thereto. In connection with any proposed transfer of any Residual Ownership Interest, the Certificate Registrar shall, as a condition to such consent, (x) require the proposed transferee to deliver, and the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar and to the proposed transferor, an affidavit in substantially the form attached as Exhibit J-1 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) of the proposed transferee (A) that such proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee and (B) stating that (1) the proposed transferee historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (2) the proposed transferee understands that, as the holder of a Residual Ownership Interest, it may incur liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (3) the proposed transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Residual Ownership Interest as they become due, (4) the proposed transferee will not cause income with respect to the Residual Ownership Interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of such proposed transferee or any other U.S. Person, (5) the proposed transferee will not transfer the Residual Ownership Interest to any Person that does not provide a Transferee Affidavit or as to which the proposed transferee has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, (6) it is a QIB purchasing for its own account, or a person purchasing for the account of another QIB, and (7) the proposed transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of this Section 5.3(n) and (y) other than in connection with the initial issuance of a Class R Certificate, require a statement from the proposed transferor substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J-2 (the “Transferor Letter”), that the proposed transferor has no actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed transferee’s statements in the Transferee Affidavit are false.

-152-

(iii) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed transferee under clause (ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no transfer to such proposed transferee shall be effected and such proposed transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, however, the Certificate Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee. Upon notice to the Certificate Registrar that there has occurred a transfer to any Person that is a Disqualified Organization or an agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, and in any event not later than 60 days after a request for information from the transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator agree to furnish to the IRS and the transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent such information necessary to the application of Section 860E(e) of the Code as may be required by the Code, including, but not limited to, the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect to such Class R Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such transfer. At the election of the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar may charge a reasonable fee for computing and furnishing such information to the transferor or to such agent referred to above; provided, however, such Persons shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.

(iv) The Class R Certificates may only be issued as Definitive Certificates and transferred to and owned by QIBs.

(v) During the Risk Retention Period, if a transfer of any of the RR Interest is to be made, then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and, upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) each of the following, sent to the address provided in Section 5.1(d) (A) a letter from the holder of the RR Interest instructing the Certificate Registrar of its intentions to release the RR Interest from the RR Interest Safekeeping Account and to transfer such RR Interest, (B) a certification from such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-4, which certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor (C) a certification from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-5, which such certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor, (D) a W-9 completed by the transferee and (E) wire instructions and contact information of the transferee. Upon receipt of the foregoing certifications, the Certificate Registrar shall, subject to Section 5.1(d) and Section 5.3, facilitate the transfer of the RR Interest in the name of the prospective transferee and shall deliver written confirmation of such transfer and the safekeeping of such RR Interest. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the RR Interest be held as a Global Certificate, during the Risk Retention Period. At all times after the Risk Retention Period, the RR Interest may be transferred subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 5.3 and upon the Certificate Registrar’s receipt of (A) a certification from the Holder of the RR Interest’s prospective transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-4, which such certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor and (B) a certification from the Holder of the RR Interest substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-5, which such certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor. Any attempted or

-153-

purported transfer in violation of this Section 5.3 shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported transferee and shall not relieve the transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable Certificates.

(o) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Certificate or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Act and such state securities laws. Neither the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator nor the Certificate Registrar are obligated to register or qualify the Certificates under the Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.

(p) Each purchaser that is or is acting on behalf of or using the assets of a Plan subject to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (an “ERISA Plan”) will be deemed to have represented and warranted that (i) none of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Trust, the Trustee, the Initial Purchasers, any servicer, the Certificate Administrator, or any of their respective affiliated entities, has provided any investment recommendation or investment advice on which the ERISA Plan or the fiduciary making the investment decision for the ERISA Plan has relied in connection with the decision to acquire Certificates, and (ii) the ERISA Plan fiduciary making the decision to acquire the Certificates is exercising its own independent judgment in evaluating the investment in the Certificates.

5.4. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Certificate Registrar shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and interest in the Trust Fund. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.4, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

5.5. Persons Deemed Owners. The Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that to the extent that a party to this Agreement responsible for distributing any report, statement or other information required to be distributed to Certificateholders has been provided an Investor Certification by a Beneficial Owner (or

-154-

prospective transferee of a Certificate), such party to this Agreement shall distribute such report, statement or other information to such Beneficial Owner (or such prospective transferee).

5.6. Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses; Special Notices. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders. If any Certificateholder that has provided an Investor Certification (a) requests in writing from the Certificate Registrar a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders, (b) states that such Certificateholder desires to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to its rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and (c) provides a copy of the communication which such Certificateholder proposes to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of such request, afford such Certificateholder access during normal business hours to a current list of the Certificateholders. In addition, upon written request to the Certificate Administrator by any Certificateholder that has provided an Investor Certification, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly notify such Certificateholder the identity of then-current Directing Certificateholder. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. The Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Depositor shall be entitled to a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders from time to time upon request therefor and any reasonable costs associated therewith shall be a Trust Fund Expense.

Upon the written request of any Certificateholder or Beneficial Owner that (a) has provided an Investor Certification, (b) states that such Certificateholder or Beneficial Owner desires the Certificate Administrator to transmit a notice to all Certificateholders or Beneficial Owner stating that such Certificateholder or Beneficial Owner wishes to be contacted by other Certificateholders or Beneficial Owners, setting forth the relevant contact information and briefly stating the reason for the requested contact (a “Special Notice”) and (c) provides a copy of the Special Notice which such Certificateholder or Beneficial Owner proposes to transmit, the Certificate Administrator shall post such Special Notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b) and shall mail such Special Notice to all Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing on the Certificate Register. The costs and expenses of the Certificate Administrator associated with delivering any such Special Notice shall be borne by the party requesting such Special Notice. Every Certificateholder and Beneficial Owner, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Certificate Registrar shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such Special Notice to Certificateholders, regardless of the information set forth in such Special Notice.

5.7. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain or cause to be maintained an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served. The Certificate Registrar initially designates its office at Computershare Trust Company, National Association, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0^xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000 as its office for such purposes. The Certificate Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Certificateholders

-155-

-158-

law with any other activities carried on by it. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee, the Depositor, and, so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder. No resignation by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.2. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer may assign its duties and obligations under this Agreement under certain limited circumstances as described herein.

The Servicer represents that policies and procedures restricting the flow of information exist, and shall be maintained by the Servicer, between Servicer Investment Personnel, on the one hand, and Servicer Servicing Personnel, on the other, and that such policies and procedures restricting the flow of information operate in both directions so as to include (a) policies and procedures against the disclosure of Confidential Information from Servicer Servicing Personnel to Servicer Investment Personnel and (b) policies and procedures against the disclosure of information regarding Investments from Servicer Investment Personnel to Servicer Servicing Personnel. The senior management personnel of the Servicer and/or its Affiliate who have obtained Confidential Information in the course of their exercise of general managerial responsibilities may not participate in or use that information to influence Investment Decisions; nor may they pass that information to others for use in such activities; nor may such senior management personnel who have obtained information regarding Investments in the course of their exercise of general managerial responsibilities use that information to influence servicing recommendations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the delivery or provision by the Servicer of information or reports as required by this Agreement shall not constitute a violation or default of this Section 6.5(a).

(b) The Special Servicer shall maintain reasonable policies and procedures, taking into account the nature of its business, to ensure that divisions and individuals of the Special Servicer making Investment Decisions (such division and individuals, “Special Servicer Investment Personnel”) will not obtain Confidential Information from the division and individuals of the Special Servicer who are involved in the performance of the duties of the Special Servicer hereunder (such divisions and individuals, “Special Servicer Servicing Personnel”) and the Special Servicer Servicing Personnel will not obtain information regarding Investments from Special Servicer Investment Personnel. The Special Servicer represents that policies and procedures

-159-

restricting the flow of information exist, and shall be maintained by the Special Servicer, between Special Servicer Investment Personnel, on the one hand, and Special Servicer Servicing Personnel, on the other, and that such policies and procedures restricting the flow of information operate in both directions so as to include (a) policies and procedures against the disclosure of Confidential Information from Special Servicer Servicing Personnel to Special Servicer Investment Personnel and (b) policies and procedures against the disclosure of information regarding Investments from Special Servicer Investment Personnel to Special Servicer Servicing Personnel. The senior management personnel of the Special Servicer and/or its Affiliate who have obtained Confidential Information in the course of their exercise of general managerial responsibilities may not participate in or use that information to influence Investment Decisions; nor may they pass that information to others for use in such activities; nor may such senior management personnel who have obtained information regarding Investments in the course of their exercise of general managerial responsibilities use that information to influence servicing recommendations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the delivery or provision by the Special Servicer of information or reports as required by this Agreement shall not constitute a violation or default of this Section 6.5(b).

The Servicer and the Special Servicer shall afford the Depositor, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours access to all non-confidential, non-proprietary records, including those in electronic form, documentation, records or any other information regarding the Mortgage Loan that are in its possession or control hereunder and access to its officers responsible therefor. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Servicer or the Special Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Servicer and the Special Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

6.6. Indemnification by the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Depositor. (a) Each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Depositor, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust from and against any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses incurred by the Trust that arise out of or are based upon (i) a breach by the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor, as applicable, of its representations and warranties, as applicable, under this Agreement or (ii) negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor in the performance of such obligations or its negligent disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

(b) Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless each Companion Loan Holder from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs and expenses that such Companion Loan Holder may sustain in connection with this Agreement that arise out of or are based upon the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its obligations and duties hereunder or by reason of negligent disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder.

-161-

(iv) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; provided, however, that, with respect to any such decree or order that cannot be discharged, dismissed or stayed within such sixty (60) day period, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, will have an additional period of thirty (30) days to effect such discharge, dismissal or stay so long as it has commenced proceedings to have such decree or order dismissed, discharged or stayed within the initial sixty (60) day period and has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such discharge, dismissal or stay;

(ix) if and for so long as any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or any primary servicer, Sub-Servicer or Servicing Function Participant retained by the Servicer or Special Servicer (such entity, a “Sub-Servicing Entity”), other than an initial

-162-

Sub-Servicer set forth on Exhibit V, shall fail to deliver the items required to be delivered by such Sub-Servicing Entity to such Other Securitization Trust pursuant to this Agreement at the times required pursuant to this Agreement (including any applicable grace periods), which failure continues unremedied for a period of five Business Days, or, in the case of such failure by a Sub-Servicing Entity, other than an initial Sub-Servicer set forth on Exhibit V, the failure of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, to terminate such Sub-Servicing Entity for such failure; provided, that the Depositor may waive any such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as applicable, under this clause (ix) in its sole discretion without the consent of the Trustee or any Certificateholders.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, if a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Servicer affects only a Companion Loan, a Companion Loan Holder or the rating on a class of Companion Loan Securities, then the Servicer may not be terminated at the direction of the holders of any Certificates (acting in such capacity); provided that, the Companion Loan Holder shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to direct the Servicer to appoint a sub-servicer (or if the Whole Loan is currently being sub-serviced, then such Companion Loan Holder shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to direct the Servicer to replace such sub-servicer with a new sub-servicer but only if such original sub-servicer is in default (beyond any applicable cure periods) under the related sub-servicing agreement, and the Servicer will be permitted to terminate the sub-servicing agreement due to such default) that will be responsible for servicing the Whole Loan. Upon the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, the Trustee shall, upon actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer or receipt of notice from the Servicer or the Special Servicer, promptly notify the Certificate Administrator in writing. The Certificate Administrator shall, upon receipt of such notice (or receipt of a notice from the Servicer or the Special Servicer of the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event), (i) post such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b), (ii) provide such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider who shall post written notice thereof to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b), and (iii) provide notice of the same to the Certificateholders by mail, to the addresses set forth on the Certificate Register or, in the case of the Companion Loan Holders, otherwise provided to the Certificate Administrator, unless the related Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as applicable, shall have been cured or waived. For avoidance of doubt, (i) the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Servicer shall not cause there to have occurred a Special Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer unless the relevant event also constitutes a Special Servicer Termination Event and (ii) the occurrence of a Special Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer shall not cause there to have occurred a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Servicer unless the relevant event also constitutes a Servicer Termination Event.

(c) If a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either (i) the Trustee may, or (ii) upon the written direction of Holders of Sequential Pay Certificates and the RR Interest having at least 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of the Non-Risk Retained Appraisal Reduction Amount to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the Certificates) of the Sequential Pay Certificates and the RR Interest or, if affected thereby, of the applicable Companion

-163-

Loan Holders (solely with respect to a Special Servicer Termination Event), the Trustee shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination, and in and to the Whole Loan and the proceeds thereof by notice in writing to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if a Special Servicer Termination Event under clauses (i), (iii), (ix) and/or (x) of Section 7.1(a) only has an adverse effect on a Companion Loan, a Companion Loan Holder or a rating on any Companion Loan Securities, but has no adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan, the Certificateholders or a rating on any of the Certificates, then (A) the Special Servicer shall not be terminated by the Trustee pursuant to clause (i) above of this sentence without the written direction of the affected Companion Loan Holders or upon the written direction of the Holders of Certificates pursuant to clause (ii) above of this sentence, and (B) (x) with respect to a Special Servicer Termination Event under clause (x) of Section 7.1(a), the related Other Depositor shall be able to require termination of the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (ii) above of this sentence. In addition, (A) if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Servicer affects a Companion Loan, a Companion Loan Holder or a rating on any Companion Loan Securities, and if the Servicer is not otherwise terminated or (B) if a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Servicer affects only a Companion Loan, a Companion Loan Holder or a rating on any Companion Loan Securities, then the Servicer may not be terminated by or at the direction of the related Companion Loan Holder or the holder of any Companion Loan Securities, but upon the written direction of the related Companion Loan Holder, the Servicer will be required to appoint a sub-servicer that will be responsible for servicing the Whole Loan. Upon any termination of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or appointment of a successor to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Trustee shall notify the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator shall post such written notice thereof on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and provide the same to the 17g-5 Information Provider who shall post written notice thereof to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b), and thereafter, give written notice to the Depositor, the Companion Loan Holders and the Certificateholders by mail to the addresses set forth in the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Trustee of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event of which the Depositor becomes aware. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have the right to select the successor special servicer following any Special Servicer Termination Event.

(d) Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have the right to direct the Trustee to terminate the Special Servicer (subject to such terminated Special Servicer’s rights to indemnification, payment of outstanding fees, reimbursement of Advances, and other rights set forth in this Agreement which survive termination) at any time, with or without cause, and the Directing Certificateholder shall have the right to, and shall, appoint a successor special servicer who shall execute and deliver to the other parties hereto an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, whereby the successor special servicer agrees to assume and perform punctually the duties of the Special Servicer specified in this Agreement; provided that the Trustee shall have received a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency prior to the termination of the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall not be terminated pursuant to this paragraph until a successor special servicer shall have been appointed. The Directing Certificateholder shall pay any costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee or the Trust in connection with the removal and appointment of

-164-

a Special Servicer pursuant to this paragraph (unless such removal is based on any of the events or circumstances set forth in Section 7.1(a)). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no successor special servicer appointed by the Directing Certificateholder (including, without limitation, the initial Special Servicer) pursuant to Section 6.4, Section 7.1(c) or this Section 7.1(d) or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement shall be required to meet any independent net worth or similar financial covenant; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any successor special servicer may not be a Borrower Affiliate and shall satisfy any Rating Agency conditions set forth in the Rating Agency Confirmation delivered by the Rating Agency with respect to such successor special servicer and any other conditions as set forth in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Servicer Termination Event occurs and such Servicer Termination Event only has an adverse effect on the Companion Loans or the rating of a Companion Loan Security and the Servicer is not otherwise terminated, then the Trustee, at the direction of the Companion Loan Holders, shall direct the Servicer to (and the Servicer shall) appoint a sub-servicer that will be responsible for servicing the Whole Loan, or if the Whole Loan is currently being sub-serviced, then the Trustee will be required to direct the Servicer to (and the Servicer shall) replace such sub-servicer with a new sub-servicer (but only if such original sub-servicer is in default (beyond any applicable cure periods) under the related sub-servicing agreement, and the Servicer is permitted to terminate the sub-servicing agreement due to such default); provided that the Servicer shall be required to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency (including a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation) with respect to the appointment of such sub-servicer (at the expense of the Servicer). If any Special Servicer Termination Event occurs and such Special Servicer Termination Event only has an adverse effect on the Companion Loans or a Companion Loan Security and the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated, then the Trustee, at the direction of the Companion Loan Holders, will be required to terminate the Special Servicer. In addition, in the event that a Special Servicer Termination Event under clause (x) of the definition thereof occurs and the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated, the Trustee will be required to terminate the Special Servicer at the direction of the Depositor.

(e) Upon the written direction of Holders of Sequential Pay Certificates and the RR Interest evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Trust Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the Certificates) of the Sequential Pay Certificates and the RR Interest requesting a vote to replace the Special Servicer with a new special servicer designated in such written direction, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post such written direction to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b). Upon (i) delivery by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency with respect to the termination of the Special Servicer and the appointment of a new Special Servicer (which confirmation shall be obtained at the expense of such holders) and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses (including any legal fees and expenses and any Rating Agency fees and expenses) to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote (which fees and expenses will not be additional Trust Fund Expenses), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post written notice of a request for such a vote to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 8.15(b), provide written notice to all Certificateholders of such request by mail, and shall conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates and such votes, to be effective, shall be received by the Certificate Administrator

-165-

within 180 days of the posting of such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Any votes not received within such 180-day period shall be of no force and effect. If Holders of Sequential Pay Certificates and the RR Interest evidencing at least 75% of a Certificateholder Quorum vote in favor of replacing the Special Servicer within such 180-day period, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights (subject to such terminated Special Servicer’s rights to indemnification, payment of outstanding fees, reimbursement of Advances, and other rights set forth in this Agreement which survive termination) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint the successor special servicer designated by such Certificateholders; provided, however, such successor special servicer (i) satisfies all of the eligibility requirements applicable to the Special Servicer contained in this Agreement and which survive such termination and (ii) such successor special servicer may not also be a Borrower Affiliate, the current special servicer or an affiliate of the current special servicer. The provisions set forth in the foregoing sentences of this paragraph shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of solely the Certificateholders and the Trustee as between each other. The Special Servicer shall not have any cause of action based upon or arising from any breach or alleged breach of such provisions. As between the Special Servicer, on the one hand, and the Certificateholders, on the other, the Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Special Servicer. The Holders of the Certificates that initiated the vote to replace the Special Servicer shall pay the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the removal and replacement of the Special Servicer pursuant to this paragraph. The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder may access such notices on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and that each Certificateholder may register to receive e-mail notifications when such notices are posted thereon.

(f) [Reserved].

(g) In the event that the Servicer or Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.1, the Trustee shall notify the Certificate Administrator of the effective date of the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, termination and the Certificate Administrator shall, upon receiving such notice, notify the outgoing Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, of the effective date of its termination, and the Trustee (the “Terminating Party”) shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be (the “Terminated Party”) (with a copy to the Certificate Administrator, and the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall post to its website)), terminate all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and in and to the Whole Loan and the proceeds thereof, other than any rights the Terminated Party may have hereunder as a Certificateholder and to any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement with respect to periods prior to the date of such termination and the right to the benefits of Section 6.3 notwithstanding any such termination). On or after the receipt by the Terminated Party of such written notice, subject to the foregoing, all of its authority and power under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (except that the Terminated Party shall retain its rights as a Certificateholder in the event and to the extent that it is a Certificateholder) or the Whole Loan or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Terminating Party pursuant to and under this Section 7.1 (absent the appointment of a successor, and such successor’s assumption of obligations hereunder) and, without limitation, the Terminating Party is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Terminated Party, as

-166-

attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the servicing rights with respect to the Whole Loan and related documents, or otherwise. The Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, each agrees that, in the event it is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.1, or resigns under Section 6.4(b), to promptly (and in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days subsequent to such notice) provide, at its own expense, the Terminating Party (which term shall include for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.1(g), the Trustee (or a successor Servicer or Special Servicer) in connection with a resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under Section 6.4(b)) with all documents and records requested by the Terminating Party to enable the Terminating Party to assume its functions hereunder, and to cooperate with the Terminating Party and the successor to its responsibilities hereunder in effecting the termination of its responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or the Terminating Party, as applicable, for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Terminated Party (which term shall include, for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.1(g), the resigning party in connection with a resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under Section 6.4(b)) to the Collection Account, any Foreclosed Property Account or shall thereafter be received with respect to the Whole Loan, and shall promptly provide the Terminating Party or such successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (which may include the Trustee), as applicable, all documents and records reasonably requested by it, such documents and records to be provided in such form as the Terminating Party or such successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall reasonably request (including electronic form), to enable it to assume the function of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder. All reasonable costs and expenses of the Terminating Party or the successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, incurred in connection with transferring the Mortgage File to the Terminating Party or to the successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be paid by the Terminated Party upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. If the Terminated Party has not reimbursed the Terminating Party or such successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, for such expenses within ninety (90) days after the presentation of reasonable documentation, such expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust pursuant to Section 3.4(c); provided that the Terminated Party shall not thereby be relieved of its liability for such expenses. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event of which the Depositor becomes aware. In no event shall the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator be deemed to have knowledge of or be aware of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, has received written notice thereof or has actual knowledge thereof.

7.2. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a) On and after the time the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.1, or resigns pursuant to Section 6.4(b), the Terminating Party (which term shall include, for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.2, the Trustee (or a successor Servicer or Special Servicer including a successor appointed under

-167-

Section 6.4(a)) in connection with a resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under Section 6.4(b)) shall, unless prohibited by law, be the successor to the Terminated Party (which term shall include, for the purposes of the remainder of this Section 7.2, the resigning party in connection with a resignation of the Servicer of the Special Servicer under Section 6.4(b)) in all respects under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and, except as provided herein, shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, limitations on liability and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Terminated Party by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that (i) neither the Trustee nor the Terminating Party (or any successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be) shall have responsibilities, duties, liabilities or obligations with respect to any act or omission of the Terminated Party and (ii) any failure to perform, or delay in performing, such duties or responsibilities caused by the Terminated Party’s failure to provide, or delay in providing, records, tapes, disks, information or monies or failure to cooperate as required by this Agreement shall not be considered a default by the Terminating Party or such successor hereunder. The Trustee, as successor Servicer, and any other successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be indemnified to the full extent provided to the Trustee under this Agreement. The appointment of a successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not affect any liability of the Terminated Party that may have arisen prior to its termination as such. The Terminating Party shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of the Terminated Party herein or in any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the Terminated Party or for any losses incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment by the Terminated Party nor shall the Terminating Party or any successor Servicer or Special Servicer be required to purchase the Whole Loan hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Terminating Party as successor Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to all compensation with respect to the Whole Loan to which the Terminated Party would have been entitled that accrues after the date of the Terminating Party’s succession to which the Terminated Party would have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder and, in the case of a successor special servicer, the Special Servicing Fee. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, or during the continuance of a Control Event if the Holders of Sequential Pay Certificates or the RR Interest having greater than 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights (taking into account the application of the Trust Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the Certificates) of all then outstanding Sequential Pay Certificates and RR Interest or, if affected thereby (and solely with respect to a termination of the Special Servicer, by the Companion Loan Holders), so request in writing to the Trustee, or the Trustee is not approved by the Rating Agency as a Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation, or if the Rating Agency does not provide a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to the succession of the Trustee as Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established Whole Loan servicing institution reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee the appointment for which a Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained, as the successor to the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder. No appointment of a successor to a Terminated Party hereunder shall be effective until the assumption by such successor of all the Terminated Party’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to a Terminated Party hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in the applicable capacity as herein above provided. Any appointment

-168-

or succession by the Trustee to the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer hereunder shall be subject to the Directing Certificateholder’s right to replace the Special Servicer prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event. In connection with such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Whole Loan as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Terminated Party hereunder, except that if no successor to the Terminated Party can be obtained to perform the obligations of such Terminated Party hereunder, additional amounts shall be paid to such successor and such amounts in excess of that permitted the Terminated Party shall be paid pursuant to Section 3.4(c). The Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer (as applicable), the Special Servicer (as applicable) and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.1(c) of this Agreement, if a Servicer receives a notice of termination solely due to a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.1(a)(vii) or (viii) and the terminated Servicer provides the Trustee with the appropriate “request for proposal” materials within five (5) Business Days after such termination, then such Servicer shall continue to serve as Servicer, if requested to do so by the Trustee, and the Trustee shall promptly thereafter (using such “request for proposal” materials provided by the terminated Servicer) solicit good faith bids for the rights to master service the Whole Loan from at least three (3) Persons qualified to act as successor Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 6.4 and Section 7.2 for which the Trustee has received Rating Agency Confirmation (any such Person so qualified, a “Qualified Bidder”) or, if three (3) Qualified Bidders cannot be located, then from as many Persons as the Trustee can determine are Qualified Bidders; provided, however, that (i) at the Trustee’s request, the terminated Servicer shall supply the Trustee with the names of Persons from whom to solicit such bids; and (ii) the Trustee shall not be responsible if less than three (3) or no Qualified Bidders submit bids for the right to master service the Whole Loan under this Agreement. The bid proposal shall require any Successful Bidder (as defined below), as a condition of such bid, to enter into this Agreement as successor Servicer with respect to the Whole Loan, and to agree to be bound by the terms hereof, within forty-five (45) days after the receipt by the terminated Servicer of a notice of termination. The Trustee shall solicit bids (i) on the basis of such successor Servicer entering into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the terminated Servicer to service the Whole Loan at a sub-servicing fee rate per annum equal to 0.005% (each, a “Servicing-Retained Bid”) and (ii) on the basis of having no obligation to enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the terminated Servicer (each, a “Servicing-Released Bid”). The Trustee shall select the Qualified Bidder with the highest cash Servicing-Retained Bid (or, if none, the highest cash Servicing-Released Bid) (the “Successful Bidder”) to act as successor Servicer hereunder. The Trustee shall direct the Successful Bidder to enter into this Agreement as successor Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof (and, if the successful bid was a Servicing-Retained Bid, to enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the terminated Servicer as contemplated above), no later than forty-five (45) days after the termination of the terminated Servicer. Upon the assignment and acceptance of the servicing rights hereunder to and by the Successful Bidder, the Certificate Administrator shall remit or cause to be remitted to the terminated Servicer the amount of such cash bid received from the Successful Bidder (net of “out of pocket” expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such bid and transferring servicing).

7.4. Other Remedies of Trustee. During the continuance of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as the case may be, or so long as such Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in Section 7.1, shall have the right, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders and the Companion Loan Holders (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filing of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). In such event, the legal fees, expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor pursuant to Section 3.4(c) from the Collection Account. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event.

7.5. Waiver of Past Servicer Termination Events and Special Servicer Termination Events. The Holders of Sequential Pay Certificates evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate Voting Rights of all then outstanding Sequential Pay Certificates may, on behalf of all Certificateholders and upon adequate indemnification of the Trustee by the requesting Holders of Certificates, waive any default by the Servicer or the Special Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits (including Monthly Payment Advances) to or payments from the Collection Account, the Distribution Account or the Foreclosed Property Account or in remitting payments as received, in each case in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and the related Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right related thereto.

7.6. Trustee as Maker of Advances. In the event that the Servicer fails to fulfill its obligations hereunder to make any Advances, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee of its failure to make such Advances as promptly as possible, but in the case of any Monthly Payment Advances no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the related Remittance Date, and the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee of the Servicer’s failure to make any Advances as promptly as possible, but in the case of any Monthly Payment Advances no later than 6:00 p.m. (New York time) on the related Remittance Date. The Trustee shall, subject to its own determination of recoverability (made in the same manner as required of the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), perform such obligations (w) within five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period (but not less than one (1) Business Day) as may be required, if applicable, to avoid any lapse in insurance coverage required under the Loan Documents or this Agreement with respect to the Mortgaged Property or to avoid any foreclosure or similar action with respect to the Mortgaged Property by reason of failure to pay real estate taxes, assessments, ground rents or governmental charges) of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee obtaining knowledge of such failure by the Servicer or the Special Servicer with respect to Property Protection Advances and Administrative Advances and (x) by 12:00 noon New York time on the related Distribution Date with respect to

-170-

Monthly Payment Advances provided that the Trustee has received notice from the Servicer or the Certificate Administrator by 6:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Remittance Date of the failure of the Servicer to make a required Monthly Payment Advance. With respect to any such Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Servicer’s rights with respect to Advances hereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of reimbursement and interest on each Advance at the Advance Rate, and rights to determine that a proposed Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance (without regard to any impairment of any such rights of reimbursement caused by such Servicer’s default in its obligations hereunder and further subject to the Trustee’s standard of good faith judgment); provided, however, that if Advances made by the Trustee and/or the Servicer shall at any time be outstanding, or any interest on any Advance shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay such Advances and the interest thereon hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances outstanding to the Trustee until such Advances shall have been repaid in full, together with all interest accrued thereon, prior to reimbursement of the Servicer for such Advances and interest accrued thereon. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice given by the Servicer with respect to a Nonrecoverable Advance hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the master servicer and trustee with respect to each Other Securitization Trust of the amount of any Monthly Payment Advance made by it pursuant to this Section 7.6 within two (2) Business Days of making such advance.

Neither the Depositor nor the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be obligated to monitor or supervise the performance by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator of its duties hereunder. In case a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.2 and 7.4, shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and shall use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent institution would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such institution’s own affairs.

-171-

that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine, or cause to be examined, such instruments to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement to the extent specifically set forth herein. If any such instrument is found on its face not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s or the Certificate Administrator’s reasonable satisfaction, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, may or may not act upon same.

(c) Subject to Section 8.3, no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, its negligent failure to perform its obligations in compliance with this Agreement, or any liability which would be imposed by reason of its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith; provided, however, that:

(i) No implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates, resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders, opinions or other instruments furnished to the Trustee and/or the Certificate Administrator and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement which it reasonably believes in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly executed by the proper authorities respecting any matters arising hereunder;

(iv) neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be charged with knowledge of a Mortgage Loan Event of Default or any failure by the Servicer or the Special Servicer to comply with any of their respective obligations referred to in Section 7.1 or any other act or circumstance upon the occurrence of which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, may be required to take action unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, obtains actual knowledge of such failure, act or circumstance or the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, receives written notice of such failure from the Servicer, the

-172-

Special Servicer, the Depositor or Holders of the Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of the Regular Certificates; and

(v) neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its respective duties under this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability and for which it would not be indemnified for pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator may, in its discretion, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liabilities of the Trust, and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from funds on deposit in the Collection Account unless such legal action arises out of the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, or any breach of a representation or warranty by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, contained herein.

(d) None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator to (i) expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder if there are reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, or (ii) perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer or the Special Servicer under this Agreement, except, with respect to the Trustee, during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible and shall have liability in connection with the duties assumed by the Authenticating Agent, 17g-5 Information Provider and the Certificate Registrar hereunder, unless the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator is acting in any such capacity hereunder; provided further that in any such capacity each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall have all of the rights, protections and indemnities provided to it as Trustee and Certificate Administrator hereunder, as applicable.

9. CERTAIN MATTERS RELATING TO THE DIRECTING CERTIFICATEHOLDER

9.1. Selection and Removal of the Directing Certificateholder.

(a) The Majority Controlling Class Certificateholders may elect the Directing Certificateholder.

(b) The Directing Certificateholder shall be selected by the Majority Controlling Class Certificateholders, as determined by the Certificate Registrar from time to time. Each Holder of the Certificates of the Controlling Class shall be entitled to vote in each election of the Directing Certificateholder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the (x) Directing Certificateholder cannot be any Borrower Affiliate or the Property Manager or any of their servicers or respective agents or Affiliates and (y) for purposes of determining the Majority Controlling Class Certificateholders and/or appointing the Directing Certificateholder, any Borrower Affiliate, the Property Manager or any of their servicers or respective agents or Affiliates shall be deemed not to be a Certificateholder and shall not be entitled to exercise such right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may conclusively rely on any Investor Certification provided to it in connection with the foregoing and may require that Investor Certifications are resubmitted from time to time in accordance with its policies and procedures.

(c) The identity of the initial Directing Certificateholder is set forth in the definition of “Directing Certificateholder”. The Majority Controlling Class Certificateholders shall give written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer of the appointment of any subsequent Directing Certificateholder (in order to receive notices hereunder). Any Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns, and is identified (with contact information) to the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator as owning, the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of Certificates of the Controlling Class, shall give written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer of the appointment of a Directing Certificateholder (if any) (in order to receive notices hereunder) by such Controlling Class Certificateholder for so long as such Controlling Class Certificateholder owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class and shall also state that such Directing Certificateholder is not a Borrower or Borrower Affiliate.

(d) The Directing Certificateholder may be removed at any time by the written vote of the Majority Controlling Class Certificateholders, and a copy of the results of such vote shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer.

(e) Each Controlling Class Certificateholder is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee and to notify the Certificate Administrator and all the parties hereto of the selection of a Directing Certificateholder or the resignation or removal thereof. Any Certificateholder or its designee at any time appointed Directing Certificateholder is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to notify the Certificate Administrator when such Certificateholder or its designee is appointed Directing Certificateholder

-197-

and when it is removed or resigns. Upon receipt of such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Servicer of the identity of the Directing Certificateholder and any resignation or removal thereof. In addition, upon the request of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator shall provide the name of the then-current Directing Certificateholder and a list of the Certificateholders (or Beneficial Owners, if applicable, at the expense of the requesting party) of the Controlling Class to such requesting party. In addition, (i) any Holder owning more than fifty percent (50%) of the applicable Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator when it no longer holds the majority of the Controlling Class Certificates (by Certificate Balance), and (ii) each of the Holders of the Controlling Class Certificates who collectively own more than fifty percent (50%) of the applicable Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator when it transfers its Controlling Class Certificate (or its beneficial interest in the Controlling Class Certificates) and, as a result of such transfer, such Holders who collectively appointed the Directing Certificateholder no longer collectively own more than the applicable percentage of the Controlling Class Certificates (by Certificate Balance) set forth above, provided in no event with respect to either clause (i) or (ii) shall any Controlling Class Certificateholder have any liability to any Person for the failure to provide any such notices.

(f) Once a Directing Certificateholder has been selected, each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and each other Certificateholder (or Beneficial Owner, if applicable) shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless the Majority Controlling Class Certificateholders shall have notified each other party to this Agreement and each other Certificateholder of the Controlling Class, in writing, of the resignation of such Directing Certificateholder or the selection of a new Directing Certificateholder.

(g) Until it receives notice to the contrary, each party to this Agreement shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of the Certificateholders of the Controlling Class, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties and the Directing Certificateholder.

(h) The Directing Certificateholder shall be responsible for its own expenses.

Notwithstanding any other provision to this Agreement, in the event that no Directing Certificateholder or no Risk Retention Consultation Party has been appointed or identified to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of any such Directing Certificateholder or Risk Retention Consultation Party, as the case may be until such time as a Directing Certificateholder or Risk Retention Consultation Party meeting the definition thereof is so appointed or identified. For the avoidance of doubt, as of the Closing Date, the Majority Controlling Class Certificateholders have not appointed an initial Directing Certificateholder, and the Servicer and Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of a Directing Certificateholder until the Majority Controlling

-198-

Class Certificateholders give written notice to the Servicer and the Special Servicer of the appointment of a Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 9.1(c). Upon request, the Certificate Administrator shall provide such information as is then in its possession to identify the Directing Certificateholder or Risk Retention Consultation Party to the Servicer and the Special Servicer.

9.2. Limitation on Liability of Directing Certificateholder; Acknowledgements of the Certificateholders.

(a) Neither the Controlling Class nor the Directing Certificateholder shall have any liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment.

(b) By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that the Directing Certificateholder and/or the Controlling Class Certificateholders (i) may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of the Certificates, including owning securities backed by the Companion Loans or any interest in the Companion Loans, (ii) may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class, including the Directing Certificateholder, (iii) does not have any duties or liability to the Trust or to the Holders of any Class of Certificates, (iv) may take actions that favor the interests of one or more Classes of the Certificates, including the Holders of the Controlling Class, over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of the Certificates, and (v) shall have no liability whatsoever to the Trust, any other party to this Agreement, any Certificateholder or any other Person (including any Borrower Affiliate) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Certificateholder, the Controlling Class Certificateholders or any director, officer, employee, partner, member, shareholder, agent or principal of the Directing Certificateholder or the Controlling Class Certificateholders, as applicable, as a result of the Directing Certificateholder or the Controlling Class Certificateholders having so acted.

9.3. Rights and Powers of the Directing Certificateholder.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the next sentence, except as set forth in, and in any event subject to, Section 3.24(f), Section 9.3(b), Section 9.3(c) and the second (2nd) and third (3rd) paragraphs of this Section 9.3(a) and subject to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement and the Companion Loan Holders’ rights thereunder, (i) the Servicer shall not be permitted to take any of the actions constituting a Major Decision unless it has obtained the consent of the Special Servicer, which consent shall be deemed given if the Special Servicer does not object within fifteen (15) Business Days (after delivery of a written recommendation and analysis to the Special Servicer and information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer) unless such actions are part of an Asset Status Report approved by the Directing Certificateholder under Section 3.10(i) or is otherwise implemented by the Special Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to a Major Decision, or any other matter requiring consultation with the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event), is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties, the Companion Loan Holders, the Special Servicer or

-199-

Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without such consultation so long as the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has made a reasonable effort to contact the Directing Certificateholder to inform it of such need. Prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder in connection with any Major Decision (and such other matters that are subject to consent, approval, direction or consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder hereunder) and to consider alternative actions recommended by the Directing Certificateholder in respect of such matters. With respect to any action requiring the Directing Certificateholder’s consent, if the Directing Certificateholder does not respond to a request for its consent within ten (10) Business Days (or such other length of time as specified in this Agreement with respect to any particular action requiring consent), such consent will be deemed to have been given. In the event that no Directing Certificateholder has been appointed or identified to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then until such time as the new Directing Certificateholder is identified, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of any such Directing Certificateholder as the case may be.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by the Directing Certificateholder or any objection, consultation or direction or advice from the Directing Certificateholder, the Controlling Class Certificateholders, a Risk Retention Consultation Party or any other Person would (A) otherwise require or cause the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of the Loan Documents, the Co-Lender Agreement, applicable law, provisions of the Code resulting in an Adverse REMIC Event or this Agreement, (including without limitation, actions inconsistent with Accepted Servicing Practices), (B) expose any Certificateholder, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust or their respective Affiliates, officers, directors or agent to any claim, suit or liability, (C) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust (other than a tax on “net income from foreclosure property”) or loss of REMIC status or (D) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, the Servicer’s, the Trustee’s or the Certificate Administrator’s responsibilities hereunder, then the Special Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent, direction or advice and notify the Directing Certificateholder, each Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of, or refraining from taking, any action by the Servicer or Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval of the Directing Certificateholder or any Risk Retention Consultation Party that does not violate the Loan Documents, the Co-Lender Agreement, this Agreement, any applicable law, provisions of the Code resulting in an Adverse REMIC Event or Accepted Servicing Practices or any other provisions of this Agreement, shall not result in any liability on the part of the Servicer or the Special Servicer.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Event but so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and the

-200-

Servicer, Special Servicer and any other applicable party shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder in connection with any action to be taken or refrained from taking to the extent set forth herein; and (ii) during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have no direction, consultation or consent rights hereunder and no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Directing Certificateholder, and the Controlling Class will not be entitled to appoint a Directing Certificateholder; provided that the Directing Certificateholder (if and to the extent that it is a Certificateholder) and a holder of a Controlling Class Certificate will maintain the right to exercise its Voting Rights for the same purposes as any other Certificateholder under this Agreement. No Borrower Affiliate may be appointed as or act as the Directing Certificateholder.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have no consultation or consent rights hereunder and shall have no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Directing Certificateholder. However, the Directing Certificateholder shall maintain the right to exercise its Voting Rights for the same purposes as any other Certificateholder.

(c) For purposes of determining the Directing Certificateholder, exercising any rights of the Controlling Class or receiving Asset Status Reports or any other information under this Agreement other than Distribution Date Statements, any holder of any interest in a Controlling Class Certificate who is a Borrower Affiliate, the Property Manager or an agent or Affiliate of the foregoing shall not be deemed to be a Holder or Beneficial Owner of the related Controlling Class and shall not be entitled to exercise such rights or receive such information. If, as a result of the preceding sentence, no Holder or Beneficial Owner of Controlling Class Certificates would be eligible to exercise such rights, there will be no Controlling Class.

(d) The Certificate Administrator shall, within five (5) Business Days after its determination that a Consultation Termination Event has occurred or ceased to exist, (i) post a notice of such occurrence or cessation of a Consultation Termination Event on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (ii) notify the Servicer and the Special Servicer.

(e) For so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall provide notice to the Directing Certificateholder of any annual meeting with the Borrower and the Property Manager pursuant to the Loan Documents, consult with the Directing Certificateholder regarding an agenda for such meeting, and invite the Directing Certificateholder to attend such meeting (which invitation the Directing Certificateholder may accept or decline in its discretion). The Special Servicer shall provide advance notice to the Borrower and the Property Manager that the Directing Certificateholder has no authority to act on behalf of the holder of the Mortgage Loan.

9.4. Directing Certificateholder Contact with Servicer and Special Servicer.

Upon reasonable request, each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, without charge, make a Servicing Officer available to answer questions from the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event) regarding the

performance and servicing of the Whole Loan (or, in the case of the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer’s operational activities on a platform level basis related to the servicing of the Whole Loan after a Special Servicing Loan Event and the servicing of any Foreclosed Property) for which the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is responsible.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by it pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement if the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines, in its reasonable and good faith judgment and consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such disclosure would constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Trust or the Trust Fund or otherwise materially harm the Trust or the Trust Fund.

9.5. The Risk Retention Consultation Party.

(a) The Special Servicer shall consult, solely on a non-binding basis (and consider alternative actions recommended by such party) with each Risk Retention Consultation Party with respect to any Major Decision in the same manner as set forth in Section 9.3 with respect to the consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Event and prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event. In the event the Special Servicer receives no response from the Risk Retention Consultation Party within ten (10) days following the later of (i) the Special Servicer’s written request for input on any requested consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Risk Retention Consultation Party related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with such Risk Retention Consultation Party solely with respect to the specific matter.

(b) If the Risk Retention Consultation Party is a Borrower Affiliate, then the Special Servicer shall have no obligation to consult with such Risk Retention Consultation Party and the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have none of the consultation rights set forth above in clause (a).

(c) WFB, MSMCH, CREFI and DBNY shall be the initial Risk Retention Consultation Parties and shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of any Risk Retention Consultation Party, any successor Risk Retention Consultation Party shall deliver to the parties to this Agreement a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit S to this Agreement prior to being recognized as a new Risk Retention Consultation Party. The parties hereto shall be entitled to assume that a Risk Retention Consultation Party has not changed absent such notice. A Risk Retention Consultation Party may not be a Borrower Affiliate.

(d) Once a Risk Retention Consultation Party has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, each Certificateholder (or Beneficial Owner, if applicable) and each other RR Interest Owner shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless such Risk Retention Consultation Party itself shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and

-202-

each other RR Interest Owner, in writing, of the selection of such new Risk Retention Consultation Party.

(e) In the event that no Risk Retention Consultation Party has been appointed or identified to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then until such time as the related new Risk Retention Consultation Party is identified, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of any such Risk Retention Consultation Party as the case may be.

(f) No Risk Retention Consultation Party will have any liability to the Trust, the Certificateholders or any RR Interest Owner (other than the RR Interest Owner that appointed it) other than for having acted in accordance with or as permitted by this Agreement.

Each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates that each Risk Retention Consultation Party: (i) may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates or RR Interest Owners other than the applicable RR Interest Owner; (ii) may act solely in the interests of the applicable RR Interest Owner; (iii) does not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates or any RR Interest Owner other than the applicable RR Interest Owner; (iv) may take actions that favor the interests of the Holders of one or more Classes or the applicable RR Interest Owner over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Certificates or other RR Interest Owner; and (v) shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to the applicable RR Interest Owner) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder or other RR Interest Owner may take any action whatsoever against any Risk Retention Consultation Party or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of such Risk Retention Consultation Party for having so acted.

10. TERMINATION

10.1. Termination. (a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee created hereby (other than the obligation to make certain payments to the Companion Loan Holders) (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments to Certificateholders after the final Distribution Date to the extent set forth in this Agreement and other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to file final tax returns for the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC, to maintain books and records of the Trust Fund for such period of time as it maintains its own books and records, and the indemnification rights and obligations of the parties hereto) shall terminate upon the last action required to be taken by the Certificate Administrator on the final Distribution Date pursuant to this Article 10 following the later of (i) the final payment on the Certificates or (ii) the liquidation of the Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, the sale of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement) or the liquidation or abandonment of the Mortgaged Property and all other Collateral for the Mortgage Loan, provided, however, that in no event shall the Trust continue beyond the expiration of twenty-one (21) years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X.

(b) On the final Distribution Date, all amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and not otherwise payable to a Person other than the Certificateholders, shall be applied generally as described in Section 4.1.

10.2. Additional Termination Requirements. In connection with any termination pursuant to Section 10.1 other than final payment on the Whole Loan, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the Certificate Administrator has obtained at the expense of the Trust, an Opinion of Counsel that any other manner of terminating either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC will not subject the Trust Fund, the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to federal income tax:

(i) Within eighty-nine (89) days prior to the final Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall designate the first day of the 90-day liquidation period of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC which shall be specified in a notice from the Certificate Administrator to the Certificateholders and the as soon as practicable prior to such final Distribution Date, and shall specify such date in the final tax return of each such REMIC;

(ii) At or after the time of adoption of such plan of complete liquidation and at or prior to the final scheduled Distribution Date, the Servicer shall sell any remaining assets (other than cash) of the Trust Fund and credit the proceeds thereof to the Trust Fund; and

(iii) At or after such time as the proceeds from the disposition of the remaining assets of the Trust Fund shall have been credited to the Trust Fund, the Certificate Administrator shall cause all remaining amounts held (A) as part of the Lower-Tier REMIC to be distributed to the Certificate Administrator as holder of the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests and to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LT-R

10.3. Trusts Irrevocable. Except as expressly provided herein, all trusts created hereby are irrevocable.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 11.1 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Agreement, (i) neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first been furnished with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment is authorized or permitted hereunder and all conditions to such amendment have been satisfied and (ii) no amendment shall be made to this Agreement without the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator first receiving in writing an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting the amendment, that the amendment will not result in in the imposition of federal income tax on the Trust or cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code.

(d) In the event that neither the Depositor nor any successor thereto is in existence, any amendment under this Section 11.1 shall be effected with the consent of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, and, to the extent required by this Section 11.1, the required Certificateholders, Companion Loan Holders, Mortgage Loan Sellers and/or Initial Purchasers, as applicable.

(e) The costs and expenses associated with any such amendment, including without limitation, Opinions of Counsel and Rating Agency Confirmations, shall be borne by the party requesting such amendment or as otherwise provided in Section 11.1(a) (or, if such amendment is required by any of the Rating Agencies to maintain the rating issued by it or

-208-

requested by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator (which do not modify or otherwise relate solely to the obligations, duties or rights of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator), then at the expense of the Depositor and, if neither the Depositor nor any successor thereto is in existence, the Trust Fund).

11.2. Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

11.6. Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the Holders thereof.

11.7. Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such Certificateholder’s legal representative or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or to commence any proceeding in any court for a petition or winding up of the Trust Fund, or otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

No Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as a Certificateholder, shall have any right to vote (except as provided herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholders be under any liability to any third party by reason of any action by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.

-217-

No Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as a Certificateholder, shall have any right by virtue or by availing itself of any provisions of this Agreement, the Certificates to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, any Certificate, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of a Servicer Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event, as the case may be, and of the continuance thereof, as herein before provided, and unless the Holders of Certificates aggregating not less than 50% of the Voting Rights of the Certificates shall also have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses, and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing itself or themselves of any provisions of this Agreement or the Certificates to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of the Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder except as provided herein or therein with respect to entitlement to payments or to enforce any right under this Agreement or the Certificates, except in the manner herein provided and for the common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. By virtue of its purchase of a Certificate, each Certificateholder shall be deemed to have acknowledged that it shall make its own decisions regarding its rights and protections relevant to the Trust and shall not be relying on the Trustee or any other deal party.

11.8. Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid. The Certificateholders shall not be personally liable for obligations of the Trust Fund, that the interests in the Trust Fund represented by the Certificates shall be nonassessable for any reason whatsoever, and the Certificates, upon due authentication thereof by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Agreement, are and shall be deemed fully paid.

11.9. Reproduction of Documents. This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (i) consents, waivers and modifications which may hereafter be executed, (ii) documents received by any party at the closing, and (iii) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished, may be reproduced by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, micro-card, miniature photographic or other similar process. The parties agree that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by a party in the regular course of business, and that any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.

11.10. No Partnership. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto.

11.11. Actions of Certificateholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken

-218-

by Certificateholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Certificateholders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Certificate Administrator and, where required, to the Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer or the Special Servicer. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Special Servicer if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.11.

(b) The fact and date of the execution of any Certificateholder of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Certificate Administrator deems sufficient.

(c) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, or other act by a Certificateholder shall bind every Holder of every Certificate issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, or omitted to be done, by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Servicer or, the Special Servicer in reliance thereon, whether or not, with respect to the Certificates, notation of such action is made upon such Certificate.

(d) The Certificate Administrator and the Trustee may require additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section 11.11 as it shall deem reasonably necessary.

11.12. Successors and Assigns. The rights and obligations of any party hereto shall not be assigned (except pursuant to Sections 6.2, 6.4, 8.7 or 8.9 hereof) by such party without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee and their respective permitted successors and assigns. No Person other than a party to this Agreement, the Initial Purchasers and any Certificateholder shall have any rights with respect to the enforcement of any of the rights or obligations hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties to this Agreement specifically agree that (i) the Mortgage Loan Sellers shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement with respect to any provisions relating to the Mortgage Loan Sellers, (ii) unless it is a Borrower Affiliate, each Companion Loan Holder shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement with respect to the rights afforded it under this Agreement, (iii) each Other Depositor and Other Exchange Act Reporting Party shall be third-party beneficiary of this Agreement with respect to its rights under Article 12, and (iv) none of the Borrower Affiliates, the Property Manager or other party to the Whole Loan is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Agreement (provided that the Borrower shall be entitled to notices to the extent expressly provided herein).

11.13. Acceptance by Authenticating Agent, Certificate Registrar. The Certificate Administrator hereby accepts its appointment as Authenticating Agent and Certificate Registrar and agrees to perform the obligations required to be performed by it in each such capacity pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

-219-

11.14. Xxxxxx Act. Any provisions required to be contained in this Agreement by Section 126 and/or Section 130-k or Article 4-A of the New York Real Property Law are hereby incorporated herein, and such provisions shall be in addition to those conferred or imposed by this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent that such Section 126 and/or 130-k shall not have any effect, and if said Section 126 and/or Section 130-k should at any time be repealed or cease to apply to this Agreement or be construed by judicial decision to be inapplicable, said Section 126 and/or Section 130-k shall cease to have any further effect upon the provisions of this Agreement. In a case of a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any mandatory provisions of Article 4-A of the New York Real Property Law, such mandatory provisions of said Article 4-A shall prevail, provided that if said Article 4-A shall not apply to this Agreement, should at any time be repealed, or cease to apply to this Agreement or be construed by judicial decision to be inapplicable, such mandatory provisions of such Article 4-A shall cease to have any further effect upon the provisions of this Agreement.

11.15. Assumption by Trust of Duties and Obligations of the Mortgage Loan Sellers Under the Loan Documents. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trust as assignee of the Mortgage Loan and the Servicer and Special Servicer hereby acknowledge that the Trust assumes all of the rights and obligations of the Mortgage Loan Sellers as a lender under the Loan Documents and agrees to be bound thereby, and in accordance with the terms thereof.

11.16. Grant of a Security Interest. The Depositor intends that the conveyance of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a sale and not a pledge of security for a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge of security for a loan, however, the Depositor intends that the rights and obligations of the parties to such loan shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Depositor also intends and agrees that, in such event, (i) the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee (in such capacity) a first priority security interest in the Depositor’s entire right, title and interest in and to the assets comprising the Trust Fund, including without limitation, the Mortgage Loan, all principal and interest received or receivable with respect to the Mortgage Loan (other than payments of interest due and payable prior to the Closing Date and principal payments received prior to the Closing Date), all amounts held from time to time in the Collection Account (subject to the rights of the Companion Loan Holders with respect to any amounts that are required to be distributed to the Companion Loans pursuant to the Co-Lender Agreement), the Distribution Account, and, if established, the Foreclosed Property Account, and all reinvestment earnings on such amounts, and all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any title, hazard or other insurance policies related to the Mortgage Loan and (ii) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. The Depositor shall file or cause to be filed, as a precautionary filing, UCC Financing Statements in all appropriate locations promptly following the initial issuance of the Certificates and RR Interest to reflect the assignments made by the Mortgage Loan Sellers to the Depositor (and the Trustee) and by the Depositor to the Trustee (copies of which shall be delivered no later than ten (10) days following the Closing Date), and the Certificate Administrator shall, at the expense of the Depositor (to the extent reasonable), but in no event at the expense of the Trust, prepare and file continuation statements with respect thereto, in each case in the six-month period prior to every fifth anniversary of the date of the initial UCC Financing Statement. This Section 11.16 shall constitute notice to the Trustee pursuant to any of the requirements of the applicable UCC.

-220-

11.17. Cooperation with the Mortgage Loan Sellers with Respect to Rights Under the Loan Agreement. It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Mortgage Loan Sellers and the Depositor be able to obtain the benefit of the provisions of Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 of the Loan Agreement. Therefore, the Depositor and Trustee hereby agree to cooperate with the Mortgage Loan Sellers and the Depositor with respect to the benefits of the provisions of Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 of the Loan Agreement with respect to securitization indemnification, including, without limitation, reassignment to the Mortgage Loan Sellers or the Depositor, as applicable, of such provisions, but no other portion of the Loan Documents, to permit the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Depositor and their affiliates to enforce such provisions for their respective benefits.

12. REMIC ADMINISTRATION

12.1. REMIC Administration. (a) The parties intend that each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall constitute, and that the affairs of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall be conducted so as to qualify it as, a REMIC, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention.

(b) The Certificate Administrator shall make or cause to be made an election on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC to treat the segregated pool of assets constituting such Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the Code. Each such election shall be made on IRS Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are issued.

(c) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The “latest possible maturity date” of the Regular Certificates and the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests for the purposes of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code is the later Rated Final Distribution Date.

(d) The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely produced to the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign) and file or cause to be filed with the IRS, on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, an application for a taxpayer identification number for such Trust REMIC on IRS Form SS-4 or obtain such number by other permissible means. Within thirty days of the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the IRS, on IRS Form 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title and address of the Persons that Holders of the Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto (and the Certificate Administrator shall act as the representative of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC for this purpose), together with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and shall update such information at the time or times and in the manner required by the Code (and the Depositor agrees within ten (10) Business Days of the Closing Date to provide any information reasonably requested by the Servicer or the Certificate Administrator and necessary to make such filing). The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the preparation of the related IRS Form W-9, if such form is requested. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the information contained therein, and is hereby directed to execute such IRS Form W-9; provided, however, the

-221-

Certificate Administrator shall also be directed to execute such IRS Form W-9 (in lieu of the Trustee) if permitted by IRS regulations.

(e) The Certificate Administrator shall pay without any right of reimbursement the ordinary and usual expenses in connection with the preparation, filing and mailing of tax information reports and returns that are incurred by it in the ordinary course of its business, but extraordinary or unusual expenses, costs or liabilities incurred in connection with its tax-related duties under this Agreement, including without limitation any expenses, costs or liabilities associated with audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC that involve the IRS or state tax authorities, shall be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.

(f) The Certificate Administrator shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, timely furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign), and the Certificate Administrator shall file or cause to be filed all federal, state and local income or franchise or other tax and information returns for each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as the direct representative for such Trust REMIC. Except as provided in Section 12.1(e), the expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Certificate Administrator. The Depositor shall provide on a timely basis to the Certificate Administrator or its designee such information with respect to each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as is in its possession, and is reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator to enable it to perform its obligations under this subsection, and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely on such information in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(g) The Certificate Administrator shall perform on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of such Trust REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance issued by the IRS or any state or local taxing authority. Among its other duties, the Certificate Administrator shall provide (i) to the IRS or other Persons (including, but not limited to, the transferor of a Class R Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or to an agent that has acquired a Class R Certificate on behalf of a Disqualified Organization) such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Class R Certificate to any Disqualified Organization and (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or REMIC Provisions. The Depositor shall provide on a timely basis (and in no event later than 30 days after the Certificate Administrator’s request) to the Certificate Administrator or its designee such information with respect to each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as is in its possession and is reasonably requested in writing by the Certificate Administrator to enable it to perform its obligations under this subsection.

(h) The Certificate Administrator shall be the “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Code Section 6223 of the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class R Certificateholders, by acceptance of the Class R Certificates, agree, on behalf of themselves and all successor holders of such Class R Certificates, to the designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” for the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC.

-222-

(i) The Certificate Administrator, the Holders of the Class R Certificates, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall perform their obligations under this Agreement and the REMIC Provisions in a manner consistent with the status of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC.

(j) The Certificate Administrator, any Holder of the Class R Certificates, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not take any action or cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC and to take any action, within their respective control and the scope of their specific respective duties under this Agreement that, under the REMIC Provisions, could reasonably be expected to (i) cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (ii) unless permitted under Section 12.2(a), result in the imposition of a tax upon either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions as defined in Code Section 860G(d)) (any such result in clause (i) or (ii), an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless (A) the Certificate Administrator and the Servicer have received a Nondisqualification Opinion (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or of the Trust Fund if taken for the benefit of the Certificateholders) with respect to such action or (B) the Certificate Administrator and the Servicer have received an opinion (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or of the Trust Fund if taken for the benefit of the Certificateholders) to the effect that such action will not cause either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC and that no tax will actually be imposed.

(k) Any and all federal, state and local taxes imposed on the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC or its assets or transactions, including, without limitation, “prohibited transaction” taxes as defined in Section 860F of the Code, and any tax on contributions imposed by Section 860G(d) of the Code, shall be paid from the Collection Account; provided that the Servicer, upon two (2) days prior written notice, shall remit from the Collection Account to the Certificate Administrator the amount of any such tax that the Certificate Administrator notifies the Servicer is due; provided, further, if such taxes shall have been imposed on account of the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of any party hereto, or in connection with the breach of any representation or warranty made by any party hereto in this Agreement, then such taxes shall be paid by such party.

(l) The Certificate Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Mortgage Loan Documents (but subject to Section 1.3), all amounts collected on the Mortgage Loan shall, for federal income tax purposes, be allocated first to interest due and payable on the Mortgage Loan (including interest on overdue interest) other than Default Interest. The books and records must be sufficient concerning the nature and amount of the investments of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC to show that such Trust REMIC has complied with the REMIC Provisions.

(m) None of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Servicer or the Special Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services.

-223-

(n) In order to enable the Certificate Administrator to perform its duties as set forth herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Certificate Administrator within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Certificate Administrator reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes on the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the yield, issue prices, pricing prepayment assumption and projected cash flows of the Regular Certificates and the Class R Certificates, as applicable, and the projected cash flows on the Mortgage Loan. Thereafter, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide to the Certificate Administrator, promptly upon request therefor, any such additional information or data that the Certificate Administrator may, from time to time, reasonably request in order to enable the Certificate Administrator to perform its duties as set forth herein. The Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to use any and all such information or data provided by the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Special Servicer in the preparation of all federal, state or local income, franchise or other tax and information returns and reports for each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and Upper-Tier REMIC to Certificateholders as required herein. The Depositor hereby indemnifies the Certificate Administrator for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Certificate Administrator arising from any errors or miscalculations of the Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Section 12.1 that result from any failure of the Depositor to provide or to cause to be provided, accurate information or data to the Certificate Administrator (but not resulting from the methodology employed by the Certificate Administrator) on a timely basis and such indemnifications shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Certificate Administrator.

The Certificate Administrator agrees that all such information or data so obtained by it shall be regarded as confidential information and agrees that it shall use its best reasonable efforts to retain in confidence, and shall ensure that its officers, employees and representatives retain in confidence, and shall not disclose, without the prior written consent of the Depositor, any or all of such information or data, or make any use whatsoever (other than for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement) of any such information or data without the prior written consent of the Depositor, unless such information is generally available to the public (other than as a result of a breach of this Section) or is required by law or applicable regulations to be disclosed.

(o) The Certificate Administrator’s authority under this Agreement includes the authority to make, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to make, any elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Code Section 6221 (or successor provisions) to either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC and (ii) to avoid payment by either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC under Code Section 6225 (or successor provisions) of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any Holder of a Class R Certificate, past or present. A Holder of any Class R Certificate agrees, by acquiring such Certificate, to any such elections.

12.2. Foreclosed Property.

(a) The parties hereto acknowledge and understand that if the Trust Fund were to acquire the Mortgaged Property as a Foreclosed Property and were to own and operate such Mortgaged Property in a manner consistent with the manner in which the Mortgaged Property is currently owned and operated by the Borrower, through a Successor Property Manager, some portion or all of the income derived in the Lower-Tier REMIC from the

-224-

Foreclosed Property may be considered “net income from foreclosure property” for purposes of Section 860G(c) of the Code and subject to tax at normal corporate income tax rates.

In determining whether to acquire and hold the Foreclosed Property, the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall take these circumstances into account and shall only acquire the Foreclosed Property if it determines, in its reasonable judgment (after, consultation with counsel, at the expense of the Trust Fund), that either (i) there is a commercially feasible alternative method of administering the Foreclosed Property that would not result in such tax, e.g., a net lease that results in Rents from Real Property or (ii) the likely recovery with respect to operating the Foreclosed Property on behalf of the Trust Fund, after taking into account any such taxes that might be imposed on either the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC, will exceed the likely recovery to the Trust Fund if the Trust Fund were to net lease the Foreclosed Property or were not to acquire and hold the Foreclosed Property. If the Trust Fund acquires the Foreclosed Property, the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee, if the Manager would not be considered an Independent Contractor, shall either renegotiate the applicable Management Agreement or replace the Property Manager with a Successor Property Manager (as appropriate and to the extent permitted under such Management Agreement) so that the Foreclosed Property would be considered to be operated by an Independent Contractor. If, after making the foregoing reasonable efforts, the Special Servicer determines that it is in the best interests of Certificateholders on a net after-tax basis to operate the Foreclosed Property in a manner such that the Lower-Tier REMIC or Upper-Tier REMIC shall receive, based upon an Opinion of Counsel, “net income from foreclosure property” under the REMIC Provisions, the Special Servicer shall maintain or cause to be maintained such records of income and expense as to enable such amounts to be computed accurately, and shall pay or retain or cause to be paid or retained from Foreclosure Proceeds such amounts as are necessary to pay such tax or, to the extent such amounts are insufficient, from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.4(c)(viii).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not, to the extent within its power:

(i) permit the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to the Foreclosed Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii) permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii) authorize or permit any construction on the Foreclosed Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvements was completed before default on the Whole Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

(iv) Directly Operate, other than through an Independent Contractor, or allow any other Person to Directly Operate, other than through an Independent Contractor, the Foreclosed Property on any date more than ninety (90) days after its acquisition date.

-225-

(b) The Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall make efforts consistent with the Accepted Servicing Practices to sell the Foreclosed Property for its fair market value in accordance with Section 3.15. In any event, however, the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall dispose of any Foreclosed Property as soon as is practicable but in no event later than the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Acquisition Date occurs unless the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, has received (or has not been denied) an extension of time (an “Extension”) by the IRS to sell such Foreclosed Property or an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust of the Foreclosed Property for an additional specified period will neither result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of the Trust Fund as defined in Section 860F of the Code, nor cause the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding, in which event such period shall be extended by such additional specified period, with the expenses of obtaining any such extension of time being an expense of the Trust Fund. If the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, has received (or has not been denied) such Extension, then the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall continue to attempt to sell the Foreclosed Property for its fair market value for such longer period as such Extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee, has not received such an Extension and the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, is unable to sell the Foreclosed Property, within the foregoing period or if the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, has received such an Extension, and the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, is unable to sell the Foreclosed Property within the Extended Period, the Special Servicer shall, before the end of the above referenced period or the Extended Period, as the case may be, auction the Foreclosed Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Special Servicer) in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Subject to the foregoing, the Special Servicer will generally be required to solicit offers for the Foreclosed Property so acquired in such a manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price for the Mortgaged Property.

(c) Within thirty (30) days of the sale of a Foreclosed Property, the Special Servicer shall provide to each of the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee a statement of accounting for the Foreclosed Property, including, without limitation, (i) the date the Mortgaged Property was acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the date of disposition of such Foreclosed Property, (iii) the gross sale price and related selling and other expenses, (iv) accrued interest calculated from the date of acquisition to the disposition date, and (v) such other information as the Certificate Administrator and/or Trustee may reasonably request.

12.3. Prohibited Transactions and Activities.

-227-

regulations of the Commission. Except as expressly required by Sections 13.7, 13.8 and 13.9, the Depositor shall not, and no Other Depositor may, exercise its rights to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Act, the Exchange Act and the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, and agree to comply with reasonable requests made by the Depositor, or any Other Depositor, in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of such evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection with the BXP Trust 2021-601L, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2021-601L, and any Companion Loan Securities, each of the parties to this Agreement shall cooperate fully with the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, any Other Depositor and any Other Exchange Act Reporting Party, as applicable, to deliver or make available to the Depositor or Other Depositor, as applicable (including any of its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information in its possession or reasonably available to it and necessary in the reasonable good faith determination of the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, any Other Depositor or any Other Exchange Act Reporting Party, as applicable, to permit the Depositor or any Other Depositor, as applicable, to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, as applicable, and any Sub-Servicer, or the servicing of the Mortgage Loan, reasonably believed by the Depositor or any Other Depositor, as applicable, in good faith to be necessary in order to effect such compliance. Each party to this Agreement shall have a reasonable period of time to comply with any written request made under this Section 13.1, but in any event, shall, upon reasonable advance written request, provide information in sufficient time to allow each Other Depositor to satisfy any related filing requirements.

13.13. Amendments. This Article 13 may be amended by the parties hereto pursuant to Section 11.1 of this Agreement for purposes of complying with Regulation AB, the Act or the Exchange Act and/or to conform to standards developed within the commercial mortgage-backed securities market and the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act without any Opinions of Counsel, Officer’s Certificates, Rating Agency Confirmations or the consent of any Certificateholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement.

13.14. Termination of the Certificate Administrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Depositor or any Other Depositor may terminate the Certificate Administrator upon five Business Days’ notice if the Certificate Administrator fails to comply with any of its obligations under this Article 13; provided that such termination shall not be effective until a successor Certificate Administrator shall have accepted the appointment.

Any reasonable cost and expense of the Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator in cooperating with such Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party of such Other Securitization Trust (above and beyond their expressed duties hereunder) shall be the responsibility of such Other Depositor or Other Securitization Trust.

Such confirmation shall be deemed given if the Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party for the Other Securitization Trust provides a written statement to the effect that the Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the appropriate party hereto receives such written statement. The parties hereunder shall also have the right to require that such Other Depositor provide them with the contact details of such Other Depositor, Other Exchange Act Reporting Party and any other parties to the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to such Other Securitization Trust.

(b) Each of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall, upon reasonable prior written request given in accordance with the terms of Section 13.15(a) above, and subject to a right of the Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as the case may be, to review and approve such disclosure materials, permit the Companion Loan Holders to use such party’s description contained in the Offering Circular (updated as appropriate by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, at the reasonable cost of the Other Depositor) for inclusion in the disclosure materials relating to any securitization of a Companion Loan.

(c) The Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, upon reasonable prior written request given in accordance with the terms of Section 13.15(a) above, shall each timely provide (to the extent the reasonable cost thereof is paid or caused to be paid by the requesting party) to the Other Depositor and any underwriters with respect to any securitization transaction that includes a Companion Loan such opinion(s) of counsel, certifications and/or indemnification agreement(s) with respect to the updated description referred in Section 13.15(b) with respect to such party, substantially identical to those, if any, delivered by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, or their respective counsel, in connection with the information concerning such party in the

-239-

Offering Circular and/or any other disclosure materials relating to this Trust (updated as deemed appropriate by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, or their respective legal counsel, as the case may be, and sufficient to comply with Regulation AB). None of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall be obligated to deliver any such item with respect to the securitization of a Companion Loan if it did not deliver a corresponding item with respect to this Trust.

STATE OF	)
	) ss.:
COUNTY OF	)

I, [______], under penalties of perjury, declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the following representations are true, correct and complete, and being first sworn, depose and say that:

1. I am a [______] of [______] (the “Purchaser”), on behalf of which I have the authority to make this affidavit.

2. The Purchaser is acquiring Class R Certificates representing [__]% of the residual interest in each of the real estate mortgage investment conduits (each, a “REMIC”) designated as the (i) “Lower-Tier REMIC” and (ii) “Upper-Tier REMIC”, respectively, relating to the Certificates for which an election is to be made under Section 860E of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).

3. The Purchaser is not a “Disqualified Organization” (as defined below), and that the Purchaser is not acquiring the Class R Certificates for the account of, or as agent or nominee of, or with a view to the transfer of direct or indirect record or beneficial ownership thereof, to a Disqualified Organization. For the purposes hereof, a Disqualified Organization is any of the following: (a) the United States, a State, or any agency or instrumentality of any of

Exhibit J-1-1

the foregoing (other than an instrumentality that is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to tax and, except for the FHLMC, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by any such governmental unit), (b) a foreign government, International Organization or agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing, (c) an organization that is exempt from tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by Code Section 511 on unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in Section 860E(c)(1)) of the Code with respect to the Class R Certificates (except certain farmers’ cooperatives described in Section 521 of the Code), (d) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in Section 1381(a)(2) of the Code or (e) any other person so designated by the Certificate Administrator based upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any transfer of a Class R Certificate to such person may cause the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding. The terms “United States,” “State” and “International Organization” have the meanings set forth in Section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions.

4. The Purchaser acknowledges that Section 860E(e) of the Code would impose a substantial tax on the transferor or, in certain circumstances, on an agent for the transferee, with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Class R Certificates to a Disqualified Organization.

5. The Purchaser is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the Purchaser’s U.S. taxpayer identification number is [______]). The Purchaser is not classified as a partnership under the Code (or, if so classified, all of its beneficial owners are United States persons).

6. No purpose of the acquisition of the Class R Certificates is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

7. The Purchaser will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or any other person.

8. The Purchaser is a Permitted Transferee.

9. Check the applicable paragraph:

☐ The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

(i) the present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;

(ii) the present value of the expected future distributions on such Class R Certificate; and

(iii) the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related REMIC generates losses.

Exhibit J-1-2

For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Purchaser.

☐ The transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

(i) the Purchaser is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;

(ii) at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Purchaser within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

(iii) the Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5); and

(iv) the Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.

☐ None of the above.

10. The Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificates as they become due.

11. The Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flows generated by such Certificate.

12. The Purchaser is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register any transfer of a Class R Certificate by the Transferor unless the Purchaser, or such Purchaser’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Purchaser expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any representation contained in such affidavit and agreement is false.

Exhibit J-1-3

13. The Purchaser represents that it is not acquiring the Class R Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any person that is not a Permitted Transferee and that for so long as it retains its interest in the Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee.

14. The Purchaser consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificate will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by a Permitted Transferee.

15. The Purchaser is a QIB purchasing for its own account, or a Person purchasing for the account of another QIB.

16. The Purchaser has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.3 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement, a description of which provisions may be set forth in the Class R Certificates; and the Purchaser expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such provisions.

17. The Purchaser consents to the designation of the Certificate Administrator as (i) the “partnership representative” of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code and (ii) the agent of the Tax Matters Person of the Lower-Tier REMIC and Upper-Tier REMIC, in each case pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by [______] (the “Transferor”) to [______] (the “Transferee”) of Class R Certificates evidencing a [__]% Percentage Interest in such Class (the “Residual Certificates”). The Certificates, including the Residual Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Trust and Servicing Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2021 (the “Trust and Servicing Agreement”), by and among Xxxxx Fargo Commercial Mortgage Securities, Inc., as Depositor, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Servicer, Situs Holdings, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee.

The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Certificate Registrar, that:

(1) No purpose of the Transferor relating to the transfer of the Residual Certificates by the Transferor to the Transferee is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

(2) The Transferor understands that the Transferee has delivered to you a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement in the form attached to the Trust and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit J-1. The Transferor does not know or believe that any representation contained therein is false.

(3) The Transferor has at the time of this transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee as contemplated by Treasury regulation Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Transferor has determined that the Transferee has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Transferor understands that the transfer of the Residual Certificates may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Transferor may continue to be liable

for United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Transferor has conducted such an investigation.

Unless otherwise required by a court or other governmental or regulatory authority to do so, and provided that you been informed by written notice that the related Furnishing Entity is seeking a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment with respect to the requested Confidential Information, you agree not to disclose the Confidential Information while the Furnishing Entity’s effort to obtain such a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment is pending.

If a Furnishing Entity succeeds in obtaining a protective order or other remedy, you agree to comply with its terms with respect to the disclosure of the Confidential Information, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the relevant Furnishing Entity waives compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement in writing, you agree to furnish only such information as you are legally required to disclose, at the sole expense of the relevant Furnishing Entity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the NRSRO may retain one or more copies of any document or other material containing Evaluation Material to the extent necessary for legal or regulatory compliance (or compliance with the NRSRO’s internal policies and procedures designed to ensure legal or regulatory compliance) and (b) the NRSRO may retain any portion of the Evaluation Material that may be found in backup tapes or other archive or electronic media or other documents prepared by the NRSRO and any Evaluation Material obtained in an oral communication; provided, that any Evaluation Material so retained by the NRSRO will remain subject to this Confidentiality Agreement and the NRSRO will remain bound by the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement.

The NRSRO will be responsible for any breach of this Confidentiality Agreement by you, the NRSRO or any NRSRO Representative.

You agree promptly to advise each relevant Furnishing Entity in writing of any misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure or use by any person of the Confidential Information which may come to your attention and to take all steps reasonably requested by such Furnishing Entity to limit, stop or otherwise remedy such misappropriation, or unauthorized disclosure or use.

Re:

Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2021-601L

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2021 (the “Trust and Servicing Agreement”), by and among Xxxxx Fargo Commercial Mortgage Securities, Inc., as Depositor, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Servicer, Situs Holdings, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, on behalf of the holders of the BXP Trust 2021-601L, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2021-601L (the “Certificates”) in connection with the transfer by _________________ (the “Seller”) to the undersigned (the “Purchaser”) of $_______________ aggregate Certificate Balance of Class ___ Certificates (the “Certificate”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

In connection with such transfer, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to you and the addressees hereof as follows:

[For Institutional Accredited Investors only] 1. The Purchaser is not purchasing a Class R Certificate and the Purchaser is an institutional “accredited investor” (an entity meeting the requirements of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) or an entity all of the equity owners of which are such institutions, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Certificates, and the Purchaser and any accounts for which it is acting are each able to bear the economic risk of the Purchaser’s or such account’s investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Certificates purchased by it for its own account or for one or more accounts (each of which is an institutional “accredited investor”) as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion.

Exhibit P-1

The Purchaser hereby undertakes to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with this transfer.

[For Qualified Institutional Buyers only] 1. The Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Purchaser is aware that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and the Purchaser has had the opportunity to obtain the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A.

2. The Purchaser’s intention is to acquire the Certificate (a) for investment for the Purchaser’s own account or (b) for resale to (i) “qualified institutional buyers” in transactions under Rule 144A, and not in any event with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, or (ii) (other than with respect to a Class R Certificate) to non-U.S. Securities Persons in “offshore transactions” as defined in Rule 902(h) of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act, subject in each case to the delivery of a Transfer Certificate in the form of Exhibit G, Exhibit H or Exhibit I, as applicable, to the Trust and Servicing Agreement. The Purchaser understands that the Certificate (and any subsequent Certificate issued in transfer or exchange therefor) has not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specified exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser’s investment intent (or intent to resell to only certain investors in certain exempted transactions) as expressed herein.

3. The Purchaser has reviewed the preliminary Offering Circular and the final Offering Circular relating to the Certificates (collectively, the “Offering Circular”) and the agreements and other materials referred to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Offering Circular.

4. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Certificate (and any Certificate issued in transfer or exchange therefor) has not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction, and that the Certificate cannot be resold unless it is registered or qualified thereunder or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.

5. The Purchaser hereby undertakes to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Trust and Servicing Agreement in its capacity as an owner of a Certificate or Certificates, as the case may be (each, a “Certificateholder”), in all respects as if it were a signatory thereto. This undertaking is made for the benefit of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and all Certificateholders present and future.

6. The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Certificates, except in compliance with Section 5.3 of the Trust and Servicing Agreement.

Exhibit P-2

7. Check one of the following:**

☐

The Purchaser is a U.S. Person (as defined below) and it has attached hereto an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 (or successor form).

☐

The Purchaser is not a U.S. Person and under applicable law in effect on the date hereof, no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Certificate Administrator (or its agent) with respect to distributions to be made on the Certificate. The Purchaser has attached hereto [(i) a duly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form), which identifies such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate and states that such Purchaser is not a U.S. Person, (ii) IRS Form W-8IMY (with all appropriate attachments) or (iii)]*** two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form), which identify such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate and state that interest and original issue discount on the Certificate and Permitted Investments is, or is expected to be, effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. The Purchaser agrees to provide to the Certificate Registrar updated [IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or]*** IRS Form W-8ECI, [as the case may be,]*** any applicable successor IRS forms, or such other certifications as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably request, on or before the date that any such IRS form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS form of certification furnished by it to the Certificate Registrar.

For this purpose, “U.S. Person” means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership (except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations) or other entity created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, including any entity treated as a corporation or partnership for federal income tax purposes, an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more such U.S. Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust (or, to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations, certain trusts in existence on August 20, 1996 have elected to be treated as U.S. Persons).

** Each Purchaser must include one of the two alternative certifications.
