Exhibit 10.2
MORTGAGE LOAN PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 8, 2006
(this "Agreement"), is entered into between IXIS Real Estate Capital Inc. (the
"Seller") and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Mortgage Investors, Inc. (the "Purchaser").
The Seller intends to sell and the Purchaser intends to purchase
certain multifamily, commercial and manufactured housing community mortgage
loans (the "Mortgage Loans") identified on the schedule (the "Mortgage Loan
Schedule") annexed hereto as Schedule II. The Purchaser intends to deposit the
Mortgage Loans, along with certain other mortgage loans (the "Other Mortgage
Loans"), into a trust fund (the "Trust Fund"), the beneficial ownership of which
will be evidenced by multiple classes of mortgage pass-through certificates (the
"Certificates"). One or more "real estate mortgage investment conduit" ("REMIC")
elections will be made with respect to most of the Trust Fund. The Trust Fund
will be created and the Certificates will be issued pursuant to a Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2006 (the "Pooling and Servicing
Agreement"), among the Purchaser as depositor, Wachovia Bank, National
Association, as master servicer no. 1 (in such capacity, "Master Servicer No. 1"
and, also a "Master Servicer"), Prudential Asset Resources, Inc. as master
servicer no. 2 ("Master Servicer No. 2" and, also a "Master Servicer"), X.X.
Xxxxxx Company, Inc. as special servicer (in such capacity, the "Special
Servicer"), and LaSalle Bank National Association as trustee (the "Trustee").
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein (including the schedules attached
hereto) have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.
The Purchaser has entered into an Underwriting Agreement, dated as
of August 8, 2006 (the "Underwriting Agreement"), with Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce,
Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated ("Xxxxxxx Xxxxx"), for itself and as representative
of Xxxxxxx, Sachs & Co., IXIS Securities North America Inc. and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx &
Co. Incorporated collectively, in such capacity, the "Underwriters"), whereby
the Purchaser will sell to the Underwriters all of the Certificates that are to
be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (such Certificates,
the "Publicly-Offered Certificates"). The Purchaser has also entered into a
Certificate Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 8, 2006 (the "Certificate
Purchase Agreement"), with Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, for itself (in such capacity, the
"Initial Purchaser"), whereby the Purchaser will sell to the Initial Purchaser
all of the remaining Certificates (such Certificates, the "Private
Certificates").
Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Agreement to Purchase. The Seller agrees to sell, and the
Purchaser agrees to purchase, the Mortgage Loans. The Mortgage Loans are
expected to have an aggregate principal balance of $460,935,835 (the "IXIS
Mortgage Loan Balance") (subject to a variance of plus or minus 5.0%) as of the
close of business on the Cut-off Date, after giving effect to any payments due
on or before such date, whether or not such payments are received. The IXIS
Mortgage Loan Balance, together with the aggregate principal balance of the
Other Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date (after giving effect to any payments
due on or before such date, whether or not such payments are received), is
expected to equal an aggregate principal balance (the "Cut-off Date Pool
Balance") of $1,542,696,552 (subject to a variance of plus or minus 5%). The
purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loan shall take place on August 17, 2006 or
such other date as shall be mutually acceptable to the parties to this Agreement
(the "Closing Date"). The consideration (the "Purchase Consideration") for the
Mortgage Loans shall be equal to (i) 102.8307% of the IXIS Mortgage Loan Balance
as of the Cut-off Date, plus (ii) $1,309,814, which amount represents the amount
of interest accrued on the IXIS Mortgage Loan Balance, as agreed to by the
Seller and the Purchaser.
The Purchase Consideration shall be paid to the Seller or its
designee by wire transfer in immediately available funds on the Closing Date.
SECTION 2. Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
(a) Effective as of the Closing Date, subject only to the Seller's
receipt of the Purchase Consideration and the satisfaction or waiver of the
conditions to closing set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement (which conditions
shall be deemed to have been satisfied or waived upon the Seller's receipt of
the Purchase Consideration), the Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set
over and otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse (except as set
forth in this Agreement), all the right, title and interest of the Seller in and
to the Mortgage Loans as of such date, on a servicing released basis, together
with all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any
related title, hazard, primary mortgage or other insurance proceeds. The
Mortgage Loan Schedule, as it may be amended, shall conform to the requirements
set forth in this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(b) The Purchaser or its assignee shall be entitled to receive all
scheduled payments of principal and interest due after the Cut-off Date, and all
other recoveries of principal and interest collected after the Cut-off Date
(other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or
before the Cut-off Date). All scheduled payments of principal and interest due
on or before the Cut-off Date but collected after the Cut-off Date, and
recoveries of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-off Date
(only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or
before the Cut-off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and
be promptly remitted to, the Seller.
(c) The Seller hereby represents and warrants that it has or will
have, on behalf of the Purchaser, delivered to the Trustee (i) on or before the
Closing Date, the documents and instruments specified below with respect to each
Mortgage Loan that are Specially Designated Mortgage Loan Documents and (ii) on

Loan, including any power of attorney related to the execution thereof (or

(v) an original assignment of all unrecorded documents relating to

agreement to provide the same pursuant to binding escrow instructions
executed by an authorized representative of the title company) to issue
such title insurance policy;
(viii) any filed copies or other evidence of filing of any prior UCC
Financing Statements in favor of the originator of the subject Mortgage
Loan or in favor of any assignee prior to the Trustee (but only to the
extent the Seller had possession of such UCC Financing Statements prior to

favor of the Seller on record with the applicable public office for UCC
Financing Statements, a UCC Financing Statement assignment, in form

assignee, or in blank; ; provided, if the related Mortgage Loan has been
recorded in the name of MERS or its designee, no UCC Financing Statement
in favor of the Trustee will be required to be prepared or delivered and
instead, the Seller shall take all actions as are necessary to cause the
Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders, to be shown as, and shall

(xii) if a Mortgage Loan is secured by a hospitality property, a
signed copy of any franchise agreement and/or franchisor comfort letter.
The foregoing Mortgage File delivery requirement shall be subject to
Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(d) The Seller shall retain an Independent third party (the
"Recording/Filing Agent") that shall, as to each Mortgage Loan, promptly (and in
any event within 180 days following the later of the Closing Date and the
delivery of each Mortgage, Assignment of Leases, recordable document and UCC
Financing Statement to the Trustee) cause to be submitted for recording or
filing, as the case may be, in the appropriate public office for real property
records or UCC Financing Statements, each assignment of Mortgage, assignment of
Assignment of Leases and any other recordable documents relating to each such
Mortgage Loan in favor of the Trustee that is referred to in clause (iv) of the
definition of "Mortgage File" and each UCC Financing Statement assignment in
favor of the Trustee that is referred to in clause (viii) of the definition of
"Mortgage File." Each such assignment and UCC Financing Statement assignment
shall reflect that the recorded original should be returned by the public
recording office to the Trustee following recording, and each such assignment
and UCC Financing Statement assignment shall reflect that the file copy thereof
should be returned to the Trustee following filing; provided, that in those
instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of
Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Recording/Filing Agent shall
obtain therefrom a certified copy of the recorded original. If any such document
or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be,
because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall prepare a substitute therefor
or cure such defect or cause such to be done, as the case may be, and the Seller
shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to the Trustee
(or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, to the then holder of such Mortgage Loan).
(e) The Seller shall take all actions reasonably necessary to permit
the Trustee to fulfill its obligations pursuant to Section 2.01(d) of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to each Mortgage Loan, including
bearing the out-of-pocket costs and expenses and fees of the Trustee in
connection with the performance by the Trustee of its recording, filing and
delivery obligations pursuant to Section 2.01(d) of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.
(f) All such other relevant documents and records that (a) relate to
the administration or servicing of the Mortgage Loans, (b) are reasonably
necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of such Mortgage Loans
by the applicable Master Servicer in connection with its duties under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and (c) are in the possession or under the
control of the Seller, together with all unapplied escrow amounts and reserve
amounts in the possession or under the control of the Seller that relate to the
Mortgage Loans, shall be delivered or caused to be delivered by the Seller to
the applicable Master Servicer (or, at the direction of the applicable Master
Servicer, to the appropriate sub-servicer); provided that the Seller shall not
be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other communications,
credit underwriting or due diligence analyses, credit committee briefs or
memoranda or other internal approval documents or data or internal worksheets,
memoranda, communications or evaluations.
The Seller agrees to use reasonable efforts to deliver to the
Trustee, for its administrative convenience in reviewing the Mortgage Files, a
mortgage loan checklist for each Mortgage Loan. The foregoing sentence
notwithstanding, the failure of the Seller to deliver a mortgage loan checklist
or a complete mortgage loan checklist shall not give rise to any liability
whatsoever on the part of the Seller to the Purchaser, the Trustee or any other
person because the delivery of the mortgage loan checklist is being provided to
the Trustee solely for its administrative convenience.
(g) The Seller shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary
to assign or otherwise grant to the Trust Fund the benefit of any letters of
credit in the name of the Seller, which secure any Mortgage Loan.
SECTION 3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Seller.
(a) The Seller hereby represents and warrants to and covenants with
the Purchaser, as of the date hereof, that:
(i) The Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the State of New York and the Seller
has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has the power and
authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all
transactions contemplated hereby.
(ii) This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed
and delivered by the Seller, all requisite action by the Seller's
directors and officers has been taken in connection therewith, and
(assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the
Purchaser) this Agreement constitutes the valid, legal and binding
agreement of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with
its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by (A) laws relating
to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization,
receivership or moratorium, (B) other laws relating to or affecting the
rights of creditors generally, or (C) general equity principles
(regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law).
(iii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller and
the Seller's performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement
will not (A) violate the Seller's certificate of incorporation or bylaws,
(B) violate any law or regulation or any administrative decree or order to
which it is subject or (C) constitute a default (or an event which, with
notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under, or
result in the breach of, any material contract, agreement or other
instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which the Seller is bound,
which default might have consequences that would, in the Seller's
reasonable and good faith judgment, materially and adversely affect the
condition (financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its
properties or materially and adversely affect its performance hereunder.
(iv) The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or
decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal,
state, municipal or other governmental agency or body, which default might
have consequences that would, in the Seller's reasonable and good faith
judgment, materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or
other) or operations of the Seller or its properties or materially and
adversely affect its performance hereunder.
(v) The Seller is not a party to or bound by any agreement or
instrument or subject to any certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any
other corporate restriction or any judgment, order, writ, injunction,
decree, law or regulation that would, in the Seller's reasonable and good
faith judgment, materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller
to perform its obligations under this Agreement or that requires the
consent of any third person to the execution of this Agreement or the
performance by the Seller of its obligations under this Agreement (except
to the extent such consent has been obtained).
(vi) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or
governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and
performance by the Seller of or compliance by the Seller with this
Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement except as have previously been obtained, and no bulk sale law
applies to such transactions.
(vii) None of the sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller, the
transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, and the execution, delivery
or performance of this Agreement by the Seller, results or will result in
the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller's assets or
property that would have a material adverse effect upon the Seller's
ability to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement or
materially impair the ability of the Purchaser to realize on the Mortgage
Loans.
(viii) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending
or to the knowledge of the Seller, threatened against the Seller in any
court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality
which would, in the Seller's good faith and reasonable judgment, prohibit
its entering into this Agreement or materially and adversely affect the
validity of this Agreement or the performance by the Seller of its
obligations under this Agreement.
(ix) Under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and for
federal income tax purposes, the Seller will report the transfer of the
Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser as a sale of the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser in exchange for consideration consisting of a cash amount equal
to the Purchase Consideration. The consideration received by the Seller
upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser will constitute at
least reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the Mortgage
Loans. The Seller will be solvent at all relevant times prior to, and will
not be rendered insolvent by, the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser. The Seller is not selling the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser
with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the creditors of the
Seller.
(x) The Prospectus Supplement contains all the information that is
required to be provided in respect of the Seller (that arise from its role
as "sponsor" (within the meaning of Regulation AB)), the Mortgage Loans,
the related Mortgagors and the related Mortgaged Properties pursuant to
Regulation AB.
(b) The Seller hereby makes the representations and warranties
contained in Schedule I hereto for the benefit of the Purchaser and the Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders as of the Closing Date (unless a
different date is specified therein), with respect to (and solely with respect
to) each Mortgage Loan, subject, however, to the exceptions set forth on Annex A
to Schedule I of this Agreement.
If the Seller receives written notice of a Document Defect or a
Breach relating to a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, then the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from
receipt of such notice (or, in the case of a Document Defect or Breach relating
to a Mortgage Loan not being a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of the
REMIC Provisions (a "Qualified Mortgage"), not later than 90 days from any party
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement discovering such Document Defect or
Breach, provided the Seller receives such notice in a timely manner), if such
Document Defect or Breach materially and adversely affects the value of the
related Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders therein, cure
such Document Defect or Breach, as the case may be, in all material respects,
which shall include payment of losses and any Additional Trust Fund Expenses
associated therewith or, if such Document Defect or Breach (other than omissions
due solely to a document not having been returned by the related recording
office) cannot be cured within such 90-day period, (i) repurchase the affected
Mortgage Loan (which, for the purposes of this clause (i), shall include an REO
Loan) at the applicable Purchase Price (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement) not later than the end of such 90-day period or (ii) substitute a
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (which, for
purposes of this clause (ii), shall include an REO Loan) not later than the end
of such 90-day period (and in no event later than the second anniversary of the
Closing Date) and pay the applicable Master Servicer for deposit into its
Collection Account any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith;
provided, however, that, unless the Document Defect or Breach would cause the
Mortgage Loan not to be a Qualified Mortgage, if such Document Defect or Breach
is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period and the Seller has
commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Document Defect or
Breach within such 90-day period, the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to
complete such cure (or, failing such cure, to repurchase or substitute the
related Mortgage Loan (which, for purposes of such repurchase or substitution,
shall include an REO Loan); and provided, further, that with respect to such
additional 90-day period, the Seller shall have delivered an officer's
certificate to the Trustee setting forth the reason(s) such Document Defect or
Breach is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what
actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating
that the Seller anticipates that such Document Defect or Breach will be cured
within the additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that no Document
Defect (other than with respect to the Specially Designated Mortgage Loan
Documents) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the interests
of the Certificateholders or the value of the related Mortgage Loan unless the
document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in
connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee's rights or remedies
under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any borrower or
third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or
priority of any lien or any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any
immediate servicing obligations.
A Document Defect or Breach (which Document Defect or Breach
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the
interests of the Certificateholders therein) as to a Mortgage Loan that is
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with one or more other Mortgage Loans
(each, a "Crossed Loan" and such Crossed Loans, collectively, a "Crossed Loan
Group"), which Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Document Defect
or Breach, as the case may be, as to any other Crossed Loan in such Crossed Loan
Group (without regard to this paragraph) and is not cured as provided for above,
shall be deemed to constitute a Document Defect or Breach, as the case may be,
as to each other Crossed Loan in the subject Crossed Loan Group for purposes of
this paragraph and the Seller shall be required to repurchase or substitute all
such Crossed Loans unless (1) the weighted average debt service coverage ratio
for all the remaining Crossed Loans for the four calendar quarters immediately
preceding such repurchase or substitution is not less than the greater of (A)
the weighted average debt service coverage ratio for all such Crossed Loans,
including the affected Crossed Loan, for the four calendar quarters immediately
preceding such repurchase or substitution and (B) the weighted average debt
service coverage ratio for all such Crossed Loans, including the affected
Crossed Loan, as of the Cut-off Date, and (2) the weighted average loan-to-value
ratio for the remaining Crossed Loans determined at the time of repurchase or
substitution based upon an appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer at the
expense of the Seller is not greater than the lesser of (A) the weighted average
loan-to-value ratio for all such Crossed Loans, including the affected Crossed
Loan determined at the time of repurchase or substitution based upon an
appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer at the expense of the Seller and (B)
the weighted average loan-to-value ratio for all such Crossed Loans, including
the affected Crossed Loan, as of the Cut-off Date; provided, that if such debt
service coverage and loan-to-value criteria are satisfied, any other Crossed
Loan (that is not the Crossed Loan directly affected by the subject Document
Defect or Breach), shall be released from its cross-collateralization and
cross-default provision so long as such Crossed Loan (that is not the Crossed
Loan directly affected by the subject Document Defect or Breach) is held in the
Trust Fund; and provided, further, that the repurchase or replacement of less
than all such Crossed Loans and the release of any Crossed Loan from a
cross-collateralization and cross-default provision shall be further subject to
the delivery by the Seller to the Trustee, at the expense of the Seller, of an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such release would not cause either of
REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or result in
the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after
the Startup Day under the REMIC Provisions. In the event that one or more of
such other Crossed Loans satisfy the aforementioned criteria, the Seller may
elect either to repurchase or substitute for only the affected Crossed Loan as
to which the related Document Defect or Breach exists or to repurchase or
substitute for all of the Crossed Loans in the related Crossed Loan Group. All
documentation relating to the termination of the cross-collateralization
provisions of a Crossed Loan being repurchased shall be prepared at the expense
of the Seller and, where required, with the consent of the related Mortgagor.
For a period of two years from the Closing Date, so long as there
remains any Mortgage File relating to a Mortgage Loan as to which there is any
uncured Document Defect or Breach known to the Seller, the Seller shall provide,
once every ninety days, the officer's certificate to the Trustee described above
as to the reason(s) such Document Defect or Breach remains uncured and as to the
actions being taken to pursue cure; provided, however, that, without limiting
the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(c), if such Document
Defect or Breach shall materially and adversely affect the value of such
Mortgage Loan or the interests of the holders of the Certificates therein
(subject to the second and third provisos in the sole sentence of the preceding
paragraph), the Seller shall in all cases on or prior to the second anniversary
of the Closing Date either cause such Document Defect or Breach to be cured or
repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan (for the avoidance of
doubt, the foregoing two-year period shall not be deemed to be a time limitation
on Seller's right to cure a Document Defect or Breach as set forth in this
Section 3). The delivery of a commitment to issue a policy of lender's title
insurance as described in representation 8 set forth on Schedule I hereto in
lieu of the delivery of the actual policy of lender's title insurance shall not
be considered a Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage File if
such actual policy of insurance is delivered to the Trustee not later than the
180th day following the Closing Date.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section
3(c), if there is a Document Defect or Breach (which Document Defect or Breach
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the
interests of the Certificateholders therein) with respect to one or more
Mortgaged Properties with respect to the Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be
obligated to repurchase or substitute the Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected
Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial
release provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (and such Mortgaged
Property(ies) are, in fact, released) and to the extent not covered by the
applicable release price (if any) required under the related Mortgage Loan
documents, the Seller pays (or causes to be paid) any additional amounts
necessary to cover all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by
the applicable Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust
Fund in connection with such release, (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies)
satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the Mortgage Loan documents and
the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such release would
not cause either of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the
Code or result in the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or
"contributions" after the Startup Day under the REMIC Provisions and (iii) each
Rating Agency then rating the Certificates shall have provided written
confirmation that such release would not cause the then-current ratings of the
Certificates rated by it to be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 3(c) notwithstanding, the
Purchaser's sole remedy (subject to the last sentence of this paragraph) for a
breach of representation 30 set forth on Schedule I hereto shall be the cure of
such breach by the Seller, which cure shall be effected through the payment by
the Seller of such costs and expenses (without regard to whether such costs and
expenses are material or not) specified in such representation that have not, at
the time of such cure, been received by the applicable Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer from the related Mortgagor and not a repurchase or substitution
of the related Mortgage Loan. Following the Seller's remittance of funds in
payment of such costs and expenses, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the
breach of representation 30 in all respects. To the extent any fees or expenses
that are the subject of a cure by the Seller are subsequently obtained from the
related Mortgagor, the cure payment made by the Seller shall be returned to the
Seller. Notwithstanding the prior provisions of this paragraph, the Seller,
acting in its sole discretion, may effect a repurchase or substitution (in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(c) setting forth the manner in
which a Mortgage Loan may be repurchased or substituted) of a Mortgage Loan, if
representation 30 set forth on Schedule I has been breached as to the Mortgage
Loan, in lieu of paying the costs and expenses that were the subject of the
breach of representation 30 set forth on Schedule I.
(c) In connection with any permitted repurchase or substitution of
one or more Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby, upon receipt of a certificate
from a Servicing Officer certifying as to the receipt of the applicable Purchase
Price (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) or Substitution
Shortfall Amount(s), as applicable, in the applicable Master Servicer's
Collection Account, and, if applicable, the delivery of the Mortgage File(s) and
the Servicing File(s) for the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) to
the Trustee and the applicable Master Servicer, respectively, (i) the Trustee
shall be required to execute and deliver such endorsements and assignments as

or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (C) general equity principles
(regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity

(c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser
and the Purchaser's performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement
will not (A) violate the Purchaser's articles of incorporation or bylaws, (B)
violate any law or regulation or any administrative decree or order to which it
is subject or (C) constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse

its obligations under this Agreement (except to the extent such consent has been
obtained).
(e) Except as may be required under federal or state securities laws
(and which will be obtained on a timely basis), no consent, approval,
authorization or order of, registration or filing with, or notice to, any
governmental authority or court, is required, under federal or state law, for
the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of, or compliance by
the Purchaser with, this Agreement, or the consummation by the Purchaser of any
transaction described in this Agreement.

the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to
the Purchaser as provided in Section 2 of this Agreement be, and be construed
as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser and not as a
pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or
other obligation of the Seller. However, if, notwithstanding the aforementioned
intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Seller,
then, (a) it is the express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed

documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party
for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to Section 9-313 of

for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. The
Seller and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement,
take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loan, such security
interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority

Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Seller does hereby
consent to the filing by the Purchaser of financing statements relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby without the signature of the Seller.

form) insofar as such disclosure is required under Item 1117 or 1119 of
Regulation AB or Item 1.03 to Form 8-K. The Seller shall use reasonable efforts
to deliver proposed disclosure language relating to any event, specifically
relating to the Seller (in its role as Sponsor), described under Item 1117 or

reasonably practicable after the Seller becomes aware of such event and in no
event more than two Business Days following the occurrence of such event if such
event is reportable under Item 1.03 to Form 8-K. The obligation of the Seller to
provide the above referenced disclosure materials in any fiscal year of the
Trust will terminate upon the Trustee's filing of a Form 15 with respect to the
Trust as to that fiscal year in accordance with Section 8.16 of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or the reporting requirements with respect to the Trust
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), have
otherwise automatically suspended. The Seller hereby acknowledges that the
information to be provided by it pursuant to this Section 9 will be used in the

SECTION 12. Severability of Provisions. Any part, provision,
representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement that is prohibited or
which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation, warranty or covenant of
this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be void or
unenforceable in any particular jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law that prohibits

SCHEDULE I
Mortgage Loan Representations and Warranties
For purposes of this Schedule I, the "Value" of a Mortgaged Property
shall mean the value of such Mortgaged Property as determined by the appraisal
(and subject to the assumptions set forth in the appraisal) performed in
connection with the origination of the related Mortgage Loan.
1. Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information set forth in the Mortgage
Loan Schedule with respect to the Mortgage Loans is true and correct in all
material respects (and contains all the items listed in the definition of
"Mortgage Loan Schedule") as of the dates of the information set forth therein
or, if not set forth therein, and in all events no earlier than, as of the
respective Cut-off Dates for the Mortgage Loans.
2. Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Immediately prior to the transfer of
the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, the Seller had good title to, and was the
sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan. The Seller has full right, power and
authority to transfer and assign each Mortgage Loan to or at the direction of
the Purchaser free and clear of any and all pledges, liens, charges, security
interests, participation interests and/or other interests and encumbrances
(except for certain servicing rights as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, any permitted subservicing agreements and servicing rights purchase
agreements pertaining thereto). The Seller has validly and effectively conveyed
to the Purchaser all legal and beneficial interest in and to each Mortgage Loan
free and clear of any pledge, lien, charge, security interest or other
encumbrance (except for certain servicing rights as provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, any permitted subservicing agreements and servicing rights
purchase agreements pertaining thereto); provided that recording and/or filing
of various transfer documents are to be completed after the Closing Date as
contemplated hereby and by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The sale of the
Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser or its designee does not require the Seller to
obtain any governmental or regulatory approval or consent that has not been
obtained. Each Mortgage Note is, or shall be as of the Closing Date, properly
endorsed to the Purchaser or its designee and each such endorsement is, or shall
be as of the Closing Date, genuine.
3. Payment Record. No scheduled payment of principal and/or interest
under any Mortgage Loan was 30 days or more past due as of the Due Date for such
Mortgage Loan in August 2006, without giving effect to any applicable grace
period, nor was any such payment 30 days or more delinquent in the twelve-month
period immediately preceding the Due Date for such Mortgage Loan in August 2006,
without giving effect to any applicable grace period.
4. Lien; Valid Assignment. Each Mortgage related to and delivered in
connection with each Mortgage Loan constitutes a valid and, subject to the
limitations and exceptions set forth in representation 13 below, enforceable
first priority lien upon the related Mortgaged Property, prior to all other
liens and encumbrances, and there are no liens and/or encumbrances that are pari
passu with the lien of such Mortgage, in any event subject, however, to the
following (collectively, the "Permitted Encumbrances"): (a) the lien for current
real estate taxes, ground rents, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not
yet delinquent or accruing interest or penalties; (b) covenants, conditions and
restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters that are of public
record and/or are referred to in the related lender's title insurance policy
(or, if not yet issued, referred to in a pro forma title policy or a "marked-up"
commitment binding upon the title insurer); (c) exceptions and exclusions
specifically referred to in such lender's title insurance policy (or, if not yet
issued, referred to in a pro forma title policy or "marked-up" commitment
binding upon the title insurer); (d) other matters to which like properties are
commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases
(including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if such
Mortgage Loan constitutes a Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the
Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same Crossed Group; and (g)
if the related Mortgaged Property consists of one or more units in a
condominium, the related condominium declaration. The Permitted Encumbrances do
not, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the security
intended to be provided by the related Mortgage, the current principal use of
the related Mortgaged Property, the Value of the Mortgaged Property or the
current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate income sufficient
to service such Mortgage Loan. The related assignment of such Mortgage executed
and delivered in favor of the Trustee is in recordable form (but for insertion
of the name and address of the assignee and any related recording information
which is not yet available to the Seller) and constitutes a legal, valid,
binding and, subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth in
representation 13 below, enforceable assignment of such Mortgage from the
relevant assignor to the Trustee.
5. Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists, as part of the
related Mortgage File, an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument
or as part of the Mortgage) that relates to and was delivered in connection with
each Mortgage Loan and that establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and,
subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth in representation 13 below,
enforceable first priority lien on and security interest in, subject to
applicable law, the property, rights and interests of the related Mortgagor
described therein, except for Permitted Encumbrances and except that a license
may have been granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and
perform certain obligations of the lessor under the relevant lease or leases,
including, without limitation, the right to operate the related leased property
so long as no event of default has occurred under such Mortgage Loan; and each
assignor thereunder has the full right to assign the same. The related
assignment of any Assignment of Leases not included in a Mortgage, executed and
delivered in favor of the Trustee is in recordable form (but for insertion of
the name of the assignee and any related recording information which is not yet
available to the Seller), and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and, subject
to the limitations and exceptions set forth in representation 13 below,
enforceable assignment of such Assignment of Leases from the relevant assignor
to the Trustee. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to
applicable law, provides for the appointment of a receiver for the collection of
rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents
or provides for rents to be paid directly to the related mortgagee, if there is
an event of default. No person other than the related Mortgagor owns any
interest in any payments due under the related leases on which the Mortgagor is
the landlord, covered by the related Assignment of Leases.
6. Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. In the case of each
Mortgage Loan, except by a written instrument which has been delivered to the
Purchaser or its designee as a part of the related Mortgage File, (a) the
related Mortgage (including any amendments or supplements thereto included in
the related Mortgage File) has not been impaired, waived, modified, altered,
satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, (b) neither the related
Mortgaged Property nor any material portion thereof has been released from the
lien of such Mortgage and (c) the related Mortgagor has not been released from
its obligations under such Mortgage, in whole or in material part.
7. Condition of Property; Condemnation. In the case of each Mortgage
Loan, except as set forth in an engineering report prepared by an independent
engineering consultant in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan,
the related Mortgaged Property is, to the Seller's knowledge, in good repair and
free and clear of any damage that would materially and adversely affect its
value as security for such Mortgage Loan (except in any such case where an
escrow of funds, letter of credit or insurance coverage exists sufficient to
effect the necessary repairs and maintenance). As of the date of origination of
the Mortgage Loan, there was no proceeding pending for the condemnation of all
or any material part of the related Mortgaged Property. As of the Closing Date,
the Seller has not received notice and has no knowledge of any proceeding
pending for the condemnation of all or any material portion of the Mortgaged
Property securing any Mortgage Loan. As of the date of origination of each
Mortgage Loan and, to the Seller's knowledge, as of the date hereof, (a) none of
the material improvements on the related Mortgaged Property encroach upon the
boundaries and, to the extent in effect at the time of construction, do not
encroach upon the building restriction lines of such property, and none of the
material improvements on the related Mortgaged Property encroached over any
easements, except, in each case, for encroachments that are insured against by
the lender's title insurance policy referred to in representation 8 below or
that do not materially and adversely affect the Value or current use of such
Mortgaged Property and (b) no improvements on adjoining properties encroached
upon such Mortgaged Property so as to materially and adversely affect the Value
of such Mortgaged Property, except those encroachments that are insured against
by the lender's title insurance policy referred to in representation 8 below.
8. Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan
is covered by an American Land Title Association (or an equivalent form of)
lender's title insurance policy (the "Title Policy") (or, if such policy has yet
to be issued, by a pro forma policy or a "marked up" commitment binding on the
title insurer) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan after all
advances of principal, insuring that the related Mortgage is a valid first
priority lien on such Mortgaged Property, subject only to the Permitted
Encumbrances, except that in the case of a Mortgage Loan as to which the related
Mortgaged Property is made up of more than one parcel of property, each of which
is secured by a separate Mortgage, such Mortgage (and therefore the related
Title Policy) may be in an amount less than the original principal amount of the
Mortgage Loan, but is not less than the allocated amount of subject parcel
constituting a portion of the related Mortgaged Property. Such Title Policy (or,
if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full
force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid, no material claims have
been made thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. No holder of the
related Mortgage has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially
impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Immediately following the transfer
and assignment of the related Mortgage Loan to the Trustee, such Title Policy
(or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) inures to
the benefit of the Trustee as sole insured without the consent of or notice to
the insurer. Such Title Policy contains no exclusion for whether, or it
affirmatively insures (unless the related Mortgaged Property is located in a
jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available) that, (a) the
related Mortgaged Property has access to a public road, and (b) the area shown
on the survey, if any, reviewed or prepared in connection with the origination
of the related Mortgage Loan is the same as the property legally described in
the related Mortgage.
9. No Holdback. The proceeds of each Mortgage Loan have been fully
disbursed (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has
been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts
documented as part of the Mortgage Loan documents and the rights to which are
transferred to the Trustee, pending the satisfaction of certain conditions
relating to leasing, repairs or other matters with respect to the related
Mortgaged Property), and there is no obligation for future advances with respect
thereto.
10. Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each
Mortgage Loan, together with applicable state law, contain customary and,
subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth in representation 13 below,
enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder
thereof adequate for the practical realization against the related Mortgaged
Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided
thereby, including, without limitation, judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or
similar proceedings (as applicable for the jurisdiction where the related
Mortgaged Property is located). None of the Mortgage Loan documents contains any
provision that expressly excuses the related Mortgagor from obtaining and
maintaining insurance coverage for acts of terrorism.
11. Trustee under Deed of Trust. If the Mortgage for any Mortgage
Loan is a deed of trust, then (a) a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law
to serve as such, has either been properly designated and currently so serves or
may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law, and (b)
no fees or expenses are or will become payable to such trustee by the Seller,
the Purchaser or any transferee thereof except in connection with a trustee's
sale after default by the related Mortgagor or in connection with any full or
partial release of the related Mortgaged Property or related security for such
Mortgage Loan.
12. Environmental Conditions. Except in the case of the Mortgaged
Properties identified on Annex B hereto (as to which properties the only
environmental investigation conducted in connection with the origination of the
related Mortgage Loan related to asbestos-containing materials and lead-based
paint), (a) an environmental site assessment meeting ASTM standards and covering
all environmental hazards typically assessed for similar properties including
use, type and tenants of the related Mortgaged Property, a transaction screen
meeting ASTM standards or an update of a previously conducted environmental site
assessment (which update may have been performed pursuant to a database update),
was performed by an independent third-party environmental consultant (licensed
to the extent required by applicable state law) with respect to each Mortgaged
Property securing a Mortgage Loan in connection with the origination of such
Mortgage Loan, (b) the report of each such assessment, update or screen, if any
(an "Environmental Report"), is dated no earlier than (or, alternatively, has
been updated within) twelve (12) months prior to the date hereof, (c) a copy of
each such Environmental Report has been delivered to the Purchaser, and (d)
either: (i) no such Environmental Report, if any, reveals that as of the date of
the report there is a material violation of applicable environmental laws with
respect to any known circumstances or conditions relating to the related
Mortgaged Property; or (ii) if any such Environmental Report does reveal any
such circumstances or conditions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property
and the same have not been subsequently remediated in all material respects,
then one or more of the following are true--(A) one or more parties not related
to the related Mortgagor and collectively having financial resources reasonably
estimated to be adequate to cure the violation was identified as the responsible
party or parties for such conditions or circumstances, and such conditions or
circumstances do not materially impair the Value of the related Mortgaged
Property, (B) the related Mortgagor was required to provide additional security
reasonably estimated to be adequate to cure the violations and/or to obtain and,
for the period contemplated by the related Mortgage Loan documents, maintain an
operations and maintenance plan, (C) the related Mortgagor, or other responsible
party, provided a "no further action" letter or other evidence that would be
acceptable to a reasonably prudent commercial mortgage lender, that applicable
federal, state or local governmental authorities had no current intention of
taking any action, and are not requiring any action, in respect of such
conditions or circumstances, (D) such conditions or circumstances were
investigated further and based upon such additional investigation, a qualified
environmental consultant recommended no further investigation or remediation,
(E) the expenditure of funds reasonably estimated to be necessary to effect such
remediation is not greater than 2% of the outstanding principal balance of the
related Mortgage Loan, (F) there exists an escrow of funds reasonably estimated
to be sufficient for purposes of effecting such remediation, (G) the related
Mortgaged Property is insured under a policy of insurance, subject to certain
per occurrence and aggregate limits and a deductible, against certain losses
arising from such circumstances and conditions, (H) that condition is not known
to have affected the related Mortgaged Property or (I) a responsible party
provided a guaranty or indemnity to the related Mortgagor to cover the costs of
any required investigation, testing, monitoring or remediation and, as of the
date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, such responsible party had
financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to cure the subject
violation in all material respects. To the Seller's actual knowledge and without
inquiry beyond the related Environmental Report, there are no significant or
material circumstances or conditions with respect to such Mortgaged Property not
revealed in any such Environmental Report, where obtained, or in any Mortgagor
questionnaire delivered to the Seller in connection with the issue of any
related environmental insurance policy, if applicable, that would require
investigation or remediation by the related Mortgagor under, or otherwise be a
material violation of, any applicable environmental law. The Mortgage Loan
documents for each Mortgage Loan require the related Mortgagor to comply in all
material respects with all applicable federal, state and local environmental
laws and regulations. Each of the Mortgage Loans identified on Annex C hereto is
covered by a secured creditor environmental insurance policy and each such
policy is noncancellable during its term, is in the amount at least equal to
125% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, has a term ending no sooner
than the date which is five years after the maturity date of the Mortgage Loan
to which it relates and either does not provide for a deductible or the
deductible amount is held in escrow and all premiums have been paid in full.
Each Mortgagor represents and warrants in the related Mortgage Loan documents
that except as set forth in certain environmental reports and to its knowledge
it has not used, caused or permitted to exist and will not use, cause or permit
to exist on the related Mortgaged Property any hazardous materials in any manner
which violates federal, state or local laws, ordinances, regulations, orders,
directives or policies governing the use, storage, treatment, transportation,
manufacture, refinement, handling, production or disposal of hazardous
materials. The related Mortgagor (or affiliate thereof) has agreed to indemnify,
defend and hold the Seller and its successors and assigns harmless from and
against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, penalties, fines,
out-of-pocket expenses and claims of any kind whatsoever (including attorneys'
fees and costs) paid, incurred or suffered by or asserted against, any such
party resulting from a breach of environmental representations, warranties or
covenants given by the Mortgagor in connection with such Mortgage Loan.
13. Loan Document Status. Each Mortgage Note, Mortgage, and each
other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor with respect
to each Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker
thereof (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the
foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value
limit deficiency legislation), enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
as such enforcement may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, receivership, fraudulent transfer and conveyance or other
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, (ii)
general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) public policy
considerations underlying applicable securities laws, to the extent that such
public policy considerations limit the enforceability of provisions that purport
to provide indemnification from liabilities under applicable securities laws,
and except that certain provisions in such loan documents may be further limited
or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set
forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii)) such limitations or
unenforceability will not render such loan documents invalid as a whole or
substantially interfere with the mortgagee's realization of the principal
benefits and/or security provided thereby. There is no valid defense,
counterclaim or right of offset or rescission available to the related Mortgagor
with respect to such Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other agreements that would deny
the mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided thereby, except in
each case, with respect to the enforceability of any provisions requiring the
payment of default interest, late fees, additional interest, prepayment premiums
or yield maintenance charges.
14. Insurance. Except in certain cases where tenants, having a net
worth of at least $50,000,000 or an investment grade credit rating (and, if
rated by Fitch, a credit rating of at least "A-" by Fitch) and obligated to
maintain the insurance described in this paragraph, are allowed to self-insure
the related Mortgaged Properties, all improvements upon each Mortgaged Property
securing a Mortgage Loan are insured under a fire and extended perils insurance
(or the equivalent) policy, in an amount at least equal to the lesser of the
outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and 100% of the full
insurable replacement cost of the improvements located on the related Mortgaged
Property, and if applicable, the related hazard insurance policy contains
appropriate endorsements to avoid the application of co-insurance and does not
permit reduction in insurance proceeds for depreciation. Each Mortgaged Property
is also covered by comprehensive general liability insurance in amounts
customarily required by prudent commercial mortgage lenders for properties of
similar types. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is the subject
of a business interruption or rent loss insurance policy providing coverage for
at least twelve (12) months (or a specified dollar amount which is reasonably
estimated to cover no less than twelve (12) months of rental income), unless
such Mortgaged Property constitutes a manufactured housing community. If any
portion of the improvements on a Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan
was, at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan, in an area identified
in the Federal Register by the Flood Emergency Management Agency as a special
flood hazard area (Zone A or Zone V), and flood insurance was available, a flood
insurance policy is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in
an amount representing coverage not less than the least of: (1) the minimum
amount required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or
loss on a replacement basis, (2) the outstanding principal balance of such
Mortgage Loan, and (3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the
applicable federal flood insurance program. Each Mortgaged Property located in
California or in seismic zones 3 and 4 is covered by seismic insurance to the
extent such Mortgaged Property has a probable maximum loss of greater than
twenty percent (20%) of the replacement value of the related improvements,
calculated using methodology acceptable to a reasonably prudent commercial
mortgage lender with respect to similar properties in the same area or
earthquake zone. Each Mortgaged Property located within Florida or within 25
miles of the coast of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana or Texas is insured by windstorm insurance in an amount
at least equal to the lesser of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the
related Mortgage Loan and (ii) 100% of the insurable replacement cost of the
improvements located on such Mortgaged Property (less physical depreciation).
All such hazard and flood insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause
for the benefit of the holder of the related Mortgage, its successors and
assigns, as mortgagee, and are not terminable (nor may the amount of coverage
provided thereunder be reduced) without at least ten (10) days' prior written
notice to the mortgagee; and no such notice has been received, including any
notice of nonpayment of premiums, that has not been cured. Additionally, for any
Mortgage Loan having a Cut-off Date Balance equal to or greater than
$20,000,000, the insurer for all of the required coverages set forth herein has
a claims paying ability or financial strength rating from S&P or Xxxxx'x of not
less than A-minus (or the equivalent), or from A.M. Best Company of not less
than "A-minus: V" (or the equivalent) and, if rated by Fitch, of not less than
"A-" from Fitch (or the equivalent). With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the
related Mortgage Loan documents require that the related Mortgagor or a tenant
of such Mortgagor maintain insurance as described above or permit the related
mortgagee to require insurance as described above. Except under circumstances
that would be reasonably acceptable to a prudent commercial mortgage lender or
that would not otherwise materially and adversely affect the security intended
to be provided by the related Mortgage, the Mortgage Loan documents for each
Mortgage Loan provide that proceeds paid under any such casualty insurance
policy will (or, at the lender's option, will) be applied either to the repair
or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property or to the
payment of amounts due under such Mortgage Loan; provided that the related
Mortgage Loan documents may entitle the related Mortgagor to any portion of such
proceeds remaining after the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged
Property or payment of amounts due under the Mortgage Loan; and provided,
further, that, if the related Mortgagor holds a leasehold interest in the
related Mortgaged Property, the application of such proceeds will be subject to
the terms of the related Ground Lease (as defined in representation 18 below).
15. Taxes and Assessments. There are no delinquent property taxes or
assessments or other outstanding charges affecting any Mortgaged Property
securing a Mortgage Loan that are a lien of priority equal to or higher than the
lien of the related Mortgage and that have not been paid or are not otherwise
covered by an escrow of funds sufficient to pay such charge. For purposes of
this representation and warranty, real property taxes and assessments and other
charges shall not be considered delinquent until the date on which interest
and/or penalties would be payable thereon.
16. Mortgagor Bankruptcy. No Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan is a
debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.
17. Local Law Compliance. To the Seller's knowledge, based upon a
letter from governmental authorities, a legal opinion, a zoning consultant's
report or an endorsement to the related Title Policy, or based on such other due
diligence considered reasonable by prudent commercial mortgage lenders in the
lending area where the subject Mortgaged Property is located (including, without
limitation, when commercially reasonable, a representation of the related
Mortgagor at the time of origination of the subject Mortgage Loan), the
improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a
Mortgage Loan are in material compliance with applicable zoning laws and
ordinances or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure (or, if any
such improvement does not so comply and does not constitute a legal
non-conforming use or structure, such non-compliance and failure does not
materially and adversely affect the Value of the related Mortgaged Property). In
the case of each legal non-conforming use or structure, the related Mortgaged
Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent of the use or structure
at the time of such casualty or law and ordinance coverage has been obtained in
an amount that would be required by prudent commercial mortgage lenders (or, if
the related Mortgaged Property may not be restored or repaired to the full
extent of the use or structure at the time of such casualty and law and
ordinance coverage has not been obtained in an amount that would be required by
prudent commercial mortgage lenders, such fact does not materially and adversely
affect the Value of the related Mortgaged Property).
18. Leasehold Estate. If any Mortgage Loan is secured by the
interest of a Mortgagor as a lessee under a ground lease of all or a material
portion of a Mortgaged Property (together with any and all written amendments
and modifications thereof and any and all estoppels from or other agreements
with the ground lessor, a "Ground Lease"), but not by the related fee interest
in such Mortgaged Property or such material portion thereof (the "Fee
Interest"), then:
(i) such Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been or will be
duly recorded; such Ground Lease permits the interest of the lessee
thereunder to be encumbered by the related Mortgage; and there has been no
material change in the terms of such Ground Lease since its recordation,
with the exception of material changes reflected in written instruments
which are a part of the related Mortgage File; and if required by such
Ground Lease, the lessor thereunder has received notice of the lien of the
related Mortgage in accordance with the provisions of such Ground Lease;
(ii) the related lessee's leasehold interest in the portion of the
related Mortgaged Property covered by such Ground Lease is not subject to
any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the
related Mortgage, other than the related Fee Interest and Permitted
Encumbrances;
(iii) upon foreclosure of such Mortgage Loan (or acceptance of a
deed in lieu thereof), the Mortgagor's interest in such Ground Lease is
assignable to, and is thereafter further assignable by, the Purchaser upon
notice to, but without the consent of, the lessor thereunder (or, if such
consent is required, it has been obtained); provided that such Ground
Lease has not been terminated and all amounts owed thereunder have been
paid;
(iv) such Ground Lease is in full force and effect, and, to the
Seller's knowledge, no material default has occurred under such Ground
Lease;
(v) such Ground Lease requires the lessor thereunder to give notice
of any default by the lessee to the mortgagee under such Mortgage Loan;
and such Ground Lease further provides that no notice of termination given
under such Ground Lease is effective against the mortgagee under such
Mortgage Loan unless a copy has been delivered to such mortgagee in the
manner described in such Ground Lease;
(vi) the mortgagee under such Mortgage Loan is permitted a
reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to
gain possession of the interest of the lessee under such Ground Lease) to
cure any default under such Ground Lease, which is curable after the
receipt of notice of any such default, before the lessor thereunder may
terminate such Ground Lease;
(vii) such Ground Lease either (i) has an original term which
extends not less than twenty (20) years beyond the Stated Maturity Date of
such Mortgage Loan, or (ii) has an original term which does not end prior
to the 5th anniversary of the Stated Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan
and has extension options that are exercisable by the lender upon its
taking possession of the Mortgagor's leasehold interest and that, if
exercised, would cause the term of such Ground Lease to extend not less
than twenty (20) years beyond the Stated Maturity Date of such Mortgage
Loan;
(viii) such Ground Lease requires the lessor to enter into a new
lease with a mortgagee upon termination of such Ground Lease for any
reason, including as a result of a rejection of such Ground Lease in a
bankruptcy proceeding involving the related Mortgagor, unless the
mortgagee under such Mortgage Loan fails to cure a default of the lessee
that is susceptible to cure by the mortgagee under such Ground Lease
following notice thereof from the lessor;
(ix) under the terms of such Ground Lease and the related Mortgage
or related Mortgage Loan documents, taken together, any related casualty
insurance proceeds (other than de minimis amounts for minor casualties)
with respect to the leasehold interest will be applied either (i) to the
repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property,
with the mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold
and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses (except
in such cases where a provision entitling another party to hold and
disburse such proceeds would not be viewed as commercially unreasonable by
a prudent commercial mortgage lender), or (ii) to the payment of the
outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan together with any
accrued interest thereon;
(x) such Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting
which would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by a prudent commercial
mortgage lender in the lending area where the related Mortgaged Property
is located at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan; and
(xi) such Ground Lease provides that (i) it may not be amended,
modified, cancelled or terminated without the prior written consent of the
mortgagee under such Mortgage Loan, and (ii) any such action without such
consent is not binding on such mortgagee, its successors or assigns.
19. Qualified Mortgage. Each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and Treasury Regulations
Section 1.860G-2(a) (but without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.860G-2(a)(3) or Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats a defective
obligation as a qualified mortgage under certain circumstances). Each Mortgage
Loan is directly secured by an interest in real property (within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-3(c) and 1.856-3(d)), and either (1) the fair
market value of the interest in real property which secures such Mortgage Loan
was at least equal to 80% of the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan at the
time the Mortgage Loan was (a) originated or modified (within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(1)) or (b) contributed to the Trust
Fund, or (2) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used
to acquire, improve or protect an interest in real property and such interest in
real property was the only security for the Mortgage Loan at the time such
Mortgage Loan was originated or modified. For purposes of the previous sentence,
the fair market value of the referenced interest in real property shall first be
reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on such interest in real property that is
senior to the Mortgage Loan, and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on such
interest in real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan.
20. Advancement of Funds. In the case of each Mortgage Loan, neither
the Seller nor, to the Seller's knowledge, any prior holder of such Mortgage
Loan has advanced funds or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance
of funds from a party other than the owner of the related Mortgaged Property
(other than amounts paid by the tenant as specifically provided under a related
lease or by the property manager), for the payment of any amount required by
such Mortgage Loan, except for interest accruing from the date of origination of
such Mortgage Loan or the date of disbursement of the Mortgage Loan proceeds,
whichever is later, to the date which preceded by 30 days the first due date
under the related Mortgage Note.
21. No Equity Interest, Equity Participation or Contingent Interest.
No Mortgage Loan contains any equity participation by the mortgagee thereunder,
is convertible by its terms into an equity ownership interest in the related
Mortgaged Property or the related Mortgagor, provides for any contingent or
additional interest in the form of participation in the cash flow of the related
Mortgaged Property, or provides for the negative amortization of interest,
except that, in the case of an ARD Loan, such Mortgage Loan provides that,
during the period commencing on or about the related Anticipated Repayment Date
and continuing until such Mortgage Loan is paid in full, (a) additional interest
shall accrue and may be compounded monthly and shall be payable only after the
outstanding principal of such Mortgage Loan is paid in full, and (b) a portion
of the cash flow generated by such Mortgaged Property will be applied each month
to pay down the principal balance thereof in addition to the principal portion
of the related monthly payment.
22. Legal Proceedings. To the Seller's knowledge, there are no
pending actions, suits, proceedings or governmental investigations by or before
any court or governmental authority against or affecting the Mortgagor under any
Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property that, if determined adversely to
such Mortgagor or Mortgaged Property, would materially and adversely affect the
value of the Mortgaged Property as security for such Mortgage Loan or the
current ability of the Mortgagor to pay principal, interest or any other amounts
due under such Mortgage Loan.
23. Other Mortgage Liens. None of the Mortgage Loans permits the
related Mortgaged Property to be encumbered by any mortgage lien junior to or of
equal priority with the lien of the related Mortgage without the prior written
consent of the holder thereof or the satisfaction of debt service coverage or
similar criteria specified therein. To the Seller's knowledge, except for cases
involving other Mortgage Loans, none of the Mortgaged Properties securing the
Mortgage Loans is encumbered by any mortgage liens junior to or of equal
priority with the liens of the related Mortgage. The related Mortgage Loan
documents require the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses related to any required consent to an encumbrance, including
any applicable Rating Agency fees, or would permit the related mortgagee to
withhold such consent if such costs and expenses are not paid by a party other
than such mortgagee.
24. No Mechanics' Liens. As of the date of origination, each
Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan (exclusive of any related personal
property) was free and clear of any and all mechanics' and materialmen's liens
that were prior or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage and that were not
bonded or escrowed for or covered by title insurance. As of the Closing Date, to
the Seller's knowledge: (i) each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan
(exclusive of any related personal property) is free and clear of any and all
mechanics' and materialmen's liens that are prior or equal to the lien of the
related Mortgage and that are not bonded or escrowed for or covered by title
insurance, and (ii) no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to
any such lien that would be prior or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage
and that is not bonded or escrowed for or covered by title insurance.
25. Compliance. Each Mortgage Loan complied with, or was exempt
from, all applicable usury laws in effect at its date of origination.
26. Licenses and Permits. To the Seller's knowledge, as of the date
of origination of each Mortgage Loan and based on any of: (i) a letter from
governmental authorities, (ii) a legal opinion, (iii) an endorsement to the
related Title Policy, (iv) a representation of the related Mortgagor at the time
of origination of such Mortgage Loan, (v) a zoning report from a zoning
consultant, or (vi) other due diligence that a commercially reasonable
originator of similar mortgage loans in the jurisdiction where the related
Mortgaged Property is located customarily performs in the origination of
comparable mortgage loans, the related Mortgagor was in possession of all
material licenses, permits and franchises required by applicable law for the
ownership and operation of the related Mortgaged Property as it was then
operated or such material licenses, permits and franchises have otherwise been
issued.
27. Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is
cross-collateralized with any loan which is outside the Mortgage Pool. With
respect to any group of cross-collateralized Mortgage Loans, the sum of the
amounts of the respective Mortgages recorded on the related Mortgaged Properties
with respect to such Mortgage Loans is at least equal to the total amount of
such Mortgage Loans.
28. Releases of Mortgaged Properties. No Mortgage Note or Mortgage
requires the mortgagee to release all or any material portion of the related
Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage except upon (i) payment
in full of all amounts due under the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) delivery of
"government securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), in connection
with a defeasance of the related Mortgage Loan; provided that the Mortgage Loans
that are Crossed Loans, and the other individual Mortgage Loans secured by
multiple parcels, may require the respective mortgagee(s) to grant releases of
portions of the related Mortgaged Property or the release of one or more related
Mortgaged Properties upon (i) the satisfaction of certain legal and underwriting
requirements or (ii) the payment of a release price in connection therewith; and
provided, further, that certain Crossed Groups or individual Mortgage Loans
secured by multiple parcels may permit the related Mortgagor to obtain the
release of one or more of the related Mortgaged Properties by substituting
comparable real estate property, subject to, among other conditions precedent,
receipt of confirmation from each Rating Agency that such release and
substitution will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any
of its then-current ratings of the Certificates; and provided, further, that any
Mortgage Loan may permit the unconditional release of one or more unimproved
parcels of land to which the Seller did not give any material value in
underwriting the Mortgage Loan.
29. Defeasance. Each Mortgage Loan that contains a provision for any
defeasance of mortgage collateral permits defeasance (i) no earlier than two
years following the Closing Date and (ii) only with substitute collateral
constituting "government securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of
the Investment Company Act. To the Seller's knowledge, the provisions of each
such Mortgage Loan, if any, permitting defeasance are only for the purpose of
facilitating the disposition of a Mortgaged Property and are not part of an
arrangement to collateralize a REMIC offering with obligations that are not real
estate mortgages.
30. Defeasance and Assumption Costs. If any Mortgage Loan permits
defeasance, then the related Mortgage Loan documents provide that the related
Mortgagor is responsible for the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses
associated with defeasance incurred by the related mortgagee, including Rating
Agency fees. If any Mortgage Loan permits assumptions, then the related Mortgage
Loan documents provide that the related Mortgagor is responsible for all
reasonable costs and expenses associated with an assumption incurred by the
related mortgagee.
31. Fixed Rate Loans. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate
that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except
in the case of an ARD Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date and except for
the imposition of a default rate.
32. Inspection. The Seller or an affiliate thereof inspected, or
caused the inspection of, the related Mortgaged Property within the preceding
twelve (12) months.
33. No Material Default. To the Seller's knowledge, there exists no
material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage for any Mortgage Loan (other than payments due but not yet 30
days or more delinquent); provided, however, that this representation and
warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
that pertains to or arises out of the subject matter otherwise covered by any
other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Schedule I.
34. Due-on-Sale. The Mortgage, Mortgage Note or loan agreement for
each Mortgage Loan contains a "due-on-sale" clause, which provides for the
acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage
Loan if, without the prior written consent of the holder of such Mortgage,
either the related Mortgaged Property, or any direct controlling equity interest
in the related Mortgagor, is transferred or sold, other than by reason of family
and estate planning transfers, transfers by devise or descent or by operation of
law upon death, transfers of less than a controlling interest in the Mortgagor,
transfers of shares in public companies, issuance of non-controlling new equity
interests, transfers to an affiliate meeting the requirements of the Mortgage
Loan, transfers among existing members, partners or shareholders in the
Mortgagor, transfers among affiliated Mortgagors with respect to
cross-collateralized Mortgage Loans or multi-property Mortgage Loans, transfers
among co-Mortgagors, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furniture, furnishings
and equipment or transfers of a similar nature to the foregoing meeting the
requirements of the Mortgage Loan.
35. Single Purpose Entity. The Mortgagor on each Mortgage Loan with
a Cut-off Date Balance of $5,000,000 or more, was, as of the origination of the
Mortgage Loan, a Single Purpose Entity. For this purpose, a "Single Purpose
Entity" shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational
documents provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized
solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged
Properties securing the Mortgage Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any
business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose
organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the
related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not
have any material assets other than those related to its interest in and
operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other
than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan
documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart
from any other person, that it holds itself out as a legal entity (separate and
apart from any other person), that it will not guarantee or assume the debts of
any other person, that it will not commingle assets with affiliates, and that it
will not transact business with affiliates (except to the extent required by any
cash management provisions of the related Mortgage Loan documents) except on an
arm's-length basis.
36. Whole Loan. Each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a
participation interest in a mortgage loan.
37. Tax Parcels. Each Mortgaged Property constitutes one or more
complete separate tax lots or is subject to an endorsement under the related
Title Policy insuring same, or in certain instances an application has been made
to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax lots, which
shall be effective for the next tax year.
38. ARD Loans. Each ARD Loan requires scheduled monthly payments of
principal. If any ARD Loan is not paid in full by its Anticipated Repayment
Date, and assuming it is not otherwise in default, (i) the rate at which such
ARD Loan accrues interest will increase by at least two (2) percentage points
and (ii) the related Mortgagor is required to enter into a lockbox arrangement
on the ARD Loan whereby all revenue from the related Mortgaged Property shall be
deposited directly into a designated account controlled by the applicable
servicer.
39. Security Interests. A UCC financing statement has been filed
and/or recorded, or submitted for filing and/or recording (or submitted to a
title company for filing and/or recording pursuant to escrow instructions), in
all places necessary to perfect (to the extent that the filing or recording of
such a UCC financing statement can perfect such a security interest) a valid
security interest in the personal property of the related Mortgagor granted
under the related Mortgage. If any Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan
is operated as a hospitality property, then (a) the security agreements,
financing statements or other instruments, if any, related to the Mortgage Loan
secured by such Mortgaged Property establish and create a valid security
interest in all items of personal property owned by the related Mortgagor which
are material to the conduct in the ordinary course of the Mortgagor's business
on the related Mortgaged Property, subject only to purchase money security
interests, personal property leases and security interests to secure revolving
lines of credit and similar financing; and (b) one or more UCC financing
statements covering such personal property have been filed and/or recorded (or
have been sent for filing or recording or submitted for filing and/or recording
to a title company pursuant to escrow instructions) wherever necessary to
perfect under applicable law such security interests (to the extent a security
interest in such personal property can be perfected by the filing or recording
of a UCC financing statement under applicable law). The related assignment of
such security interest (but for insertion of the name of the assignee and any
related information which is not yet available to the Seller) executed and
delivered in favor of the Trustee constitutes a legal, valid and, subject to the
limitations and exceptions set forth in representation 13 hereof, binding
assignment thereof from the relevant assignor to the Trustee. Notwithstanding
any of the foregoing, no representation is made as to the perfection of any
security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that
possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing or
recording of UCC Financing Statements are required in order to effect such
perfection.
40. Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges. Prepayment
Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges payable with respect to each Mortgage
Loan, if any, constitute "customary prepayment penalties" within meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2).
41. Commencement of Amortization. Except as disclosed in the
Prospectus Supplement, each Mortgage Loan begins to amortize prior to its Stated
Maturity Date or, in the case of an ARD Loan, prior to its Anticipated Repayment
Date.
42. Servicing Rights. Except as provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, any permitted subservicing agreements and servicing rights
purchase agreements pertaining thereto, no Person has been granted or conveyed
the right to service any Mortgage Loan or receive any consideration in
connection therewith which will remain in effect after the Closing Date.
43. Recourse. The related Mortgage Loan documents contain provisions
providing for recourse against the related Mortgagor, a principal of such
Mortgagor or an entity controlled by a principal of such Mortgagor, for damages,
liabilities, expenses or claims sustained in connection with the Mortgagor's
fraud, material (or, alternatively, intentional) misrepresentation, waste or
misappropriation of any tenant security deposits (in some cases, only after
foreclosure or an action in respect thereof), rent (in some cases, only after an
event of default), insurance proceeds or condemnation awards. The related
Mortgage Loan documents contain provisions pursuant to which the related
Mortgagor, a principal of such Mortgagor or an entity controlled by a principal
of such Mortgagor, has agreed to indemnify the mortgagee for damages resulting
from violations of any applicable environmental laws.
44. Assignment of Collateral. There is no material collateral
securing any Mortgage Loan that is not being assigned to the Purchaser.
45. Fee Simple Interest. Unless such Mortgage Loan is secured in
whole or in material part by a Ground Lease and is therefore the subject of
representation 18, the interest of the related Mortgagor in the Mortgaged
Property securing each Mortgage Loan is a fee simple interest in real property
and the improvements thereon, except for any portion of such Mortgaged Property
(identified on Annex D) that consists of a leasehold estate that is not a
material ground lease, which ground lease is not the subject of representation
18.
46. Escrows. All escrow deposits (including capital improvements and
environmental remediation reserves) relating to any Mortgage Loan that were
required to be delivered to the lender under the terms of the related Mortgage
Loan documents, have been received and, to the extent of any remaining balances
of such escrow deposits, are in the possession or under the control of Seller or
its agents (which shall include the Master Servicer). All such escrow deposits
are being conveyed hereunder to the Purchaser. Any and all material requirements
under each Mortgage Loan as to completion of any improvements and as to
disbursement of any funds escrowed for such purpose, which requirements were to
have been complied with on or before the date hereof, have been complied with in
all material respects or, if and to the extent not so complied with, the
escrowed funds (or an allocable portion thereof) have not been released except
in accordance with the terms of the related loan documents.
47. Operating Statements. In the case of each Mortgage Loan, the
related Mortgage or another Mortgage Loan document requires the related
Mortgagor, in some cases at the request of the lender, to provide the holder of
such Mortgage Loan with at least quarterly operating statements and rent rolls
(if there is more than one tenant) for the related Mortgaged Property and annual
financial statements of the related Mortgagor, and with such other information
as may be required therein.
48. Grace Period. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related
Mortgage, Mortgage Note or loan agreement provides a grace period for delinquent
monthly payments no longer than fifteen (15) days from the applicable Due Date
or five (5) days from notice to the related Mortgagor of the default.
49. Disclosure to Environmental Insurer. If the Mortgaged Property
securing any Mortgage Loan identified on Annex C as being covered by a secured
creditor policy, then the Seller:
(i) has disclosed, or is aware that there has been disclosed, in the
application for such policy or otherwise to the insurer under such policy
the "pollution conditions" (as defined in such policy) identified in any
environmental reports related to such Mortgaged Property which are in the
Seller's possession or are otherwise known to the Seller; or
(ii) has delivered or caused to be delivered to the insurer under
such policy copies of all environmental reports in the Seller's possession
related to such Mortgaged Property;
in each case to the extent that the failure to make any such disclosure or
deliver any such report would materially and adversely affect the Purchaser's
ability to recover under such policy.
50. No Fraud. No fraud with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken
place on the part of the Seller or any affiliated originator in connection with
the origination of any Mortgage Loan.
51. Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used with
respect to each Mortgage Loan in all material respects have met customary
standards utilized by prudent commercial mortgage loan servicers with respect to
whole loans.
52. Appraisal. In connection with its origination or acquisition of
each Mortgage Loan, the Seller obtained an appraisal of the related Mortgaged
Property, which appraisal is signed by an appraiser, who, to the Seller's
knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the
Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is
not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan; the appraisal,
or a letter from the appraiser, states that such appraisal satisfies the
requirements of the "Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice" as
adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation, all as in
effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated.
53. Origination of the Mortgage Loans. The Seller originated all of
the Mortgage Loans.
Annex A (to Schedule I)
Exceptions to the Representations and Warranties
Numbers and titles correspond to the representation number and
corresponding titles in the related Mortgage Loan representations and warranties
set forth in Schedule I to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The loan
numbers correspond to the control numbers listed in Annex A-1 to the Prospectus
Supplement.
Any exception listed below in respect of a particular representation
or warranty shall also be deemed to apply to any other applicable representation
or warranty.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Environmental Conditions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Loan 79, Pulaski Highway:
Although two former heating old underground
storage tanks placed at the Mortgaged
Property were either removed or closed in
1993, no letters of compliance for closure
or removal of the tanks were issued by the
Maryland Department of the Environment. The
Mortgagor is obligated to obtain from the
Maryland Department of the Environment an
acceptable letter of compliance for closure
or removal of these tanks. Pending the
issuance of such letter of compliance, the
Mortgage Loan will be full recourse to the
borrower.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
28. Releases of Mortgaged Property.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mortgage Loans 23, 24, 25, 26
and 27, Kmart Portfolio: With respect to
Kmart portfolio which consists of five
Mortgage Loans which are
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted,
all Mortgage Loans (except for the Mortgage
Loan secured by the Mortgaged Property
located in Lakeport, California) may be
individually released from the
cross-collateralization and cross-default
requirements upon defeasance of such
Mortgage Loan (plus a defeasance premium).
The Mortgage Loan securing the Mortgaged
Property located in Lakeport, California may
not be released from the
cross-collateralization and cross-default
requirements through individual defeasance
of such Mortgage Loan; such Mortgage Loan
may be defeased, however, only in connection
with the simultaneous defeasance of all
other Mortgage Loans comprising the Kmart
portfolio. In the case of the Mortgage Loan
secured by the Mortgaged Property located in
Loveland, Colorado, beginning with the
November 7, 2010 Payment Date, the Mortgage
Loan may be released only upon payment of
yield maintenance premiums instead of
defeasance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
35. Single Purpose Entity.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Loan 79, Pulaski Highway:
Because the Mortgage Loan is structured as a
Maryland Indemnity Deed of Trust, the
borrower of the Mortgage Loan is not a
Single Purpose Entity and does not own the
Mortgaged Property. VEI Pulaski LLC is the
owner of the Mortgaged Property and has
provided a guaranty of payment of the
Mortgage Loan and secured that guaranty of
payment with the Mortgage. The borrower has
separateness covenants in its organizational
documents.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
43. Recourse.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Loan 79, Pulaski Highway: As the
loan is structured as a Maryland Indemnity
Deed of Trust, there is a typical
non-recourse obligations guaranty and a
payment guaranty by the owner of the
Mortgaged Property, which payment guaranty
is secured by the Mortgage.
