(5) The applicable Purchased Loan File described in Section 7(b) shall have been delivered to Custodian or Bailee and Buyer shall have received a Trust Receipt from Custodian or Bailee with respect to such Purchased Loan File;

(9) |
No Purchased Loan shall be a Defaulted Loan; |

(f) Each Confirmation, together with the Agreement, shall be conclusive evidence of the terms of the Transaction covered thereby unless objected to in writing by Seller no more than two (2)
|
23 |
|
Business Days after the date such Confirmation is received by Seller. An objection sent by Seller with respect to any Confirmation must state specifically that the writing is an objection, must specify the provision(s) of such Confirmation being objected to by Seller, must set forth such provision(s) in the manner that Seller believes such provisions should be stated, and must be received by Buyer no more than two (2) Business Days after such Confirmation is received by Seller. Buyer, in its sole discretion, may issue another Confirmation addressing Seller’s objections or may elect not to proceed with the proposed Transaction.
(g) Seller shall be entitled to terminate a Transaction on demand, and repurchase the related Purchased Loan on any Business Day prior to the Repurchase Date (an “Early Repurchase Date”); provided, however, that:
(i) No Event of Default shall be continuing or would occur or result from such early repurchase,
(ii) Seller notifies Buyer in writing of its intent to terminate such Transaction and repurchase the related Purchased Loan no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Early Repurchase Date, and
(iii) On the Early Repurchase Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the sum of the Repurchase Price for such Transaction, all Costs and any other amounts payable by Seller and outstanding under the Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 3(n) of this Annex I) with respect to such Transaction against transfer to Seller or its agent of the related Purchased Loan.
(h) On the Repurchase Date (or the Early Repurchase Date, as applicable), termination of the applicable Transactions will be effected by transfer to Seller or, if requested by Seller, its designee of the related Purchased Loans, and any Income in respect thereof received by Buyer (and not previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to Section 4(a) or Section 5) against the simultaneous transfer of the Repurchase Price, all Costs and any other amounts payable and outstanding under the Agreement (including without limitation, Sections 3(l) and 3(n) of this Annex I, if any) to an account of Buyer.
(i) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Repurchase Price with respect to one or more Purchased Loans may be paid in part at any time upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice; provided, however, that any such payment shall be accompanied by an amount representing accrued Price Differential with respect to such Purchased Loan(s) on the amount of such payment and all other amounts then due under the Transaction Documents. Each partial payment of the Repurchase Price that is voluntary (as opposed to mandatory under the terms of the Agreement) shall be in an amount of not less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).
(j) In lieu of repaying the Repurchase Price, in whole or in part, with respect to the Transactions when and as otherwise required or permitted by the Agreement, Seller may elect to deposit any such amount (the “Early Repurchase Deposit”) with Buyer (the date of such deposit, the “Early Repurchase Deposit Funding Date”) until such date as the application of the Early Repurchase Deposit towards the Repurchase Price would not cause Buyer to incur such costs (the “Early Repurchase Deposit Application Date”). The Early Repurchase Deposit shall be held in an interest-bearing account controlled by Buyer and, at Buyer’s option, shall be accompanied by a payment (as estimated by Buyer) equal to the difference between the interest earned on the Early Repurchase Deposit and the Price Differential that will accrue on a portion of the relevant Transaction equal to the Early Repurchase Deposit during the
|
24 |
|
period from the Early Repurchase Deposit Funding Date to the Early Repurchase Deposit Application Date.
(k) Concurrently with its execution and delivery of the Agreement and on such other dates specified in the Fee Letter, Seller shall pay Buyer the amounts specified in the Fee Letter.
(l) If prior to the first day of any Pricing Rate Period with respect to any Transaction, (i) Buyer shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Pricing Rate Period, or (ii) the LIBO Rate determined or to be determined for such Pricing Rate Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Buyer (as reasonably determined and certified to Seller by Buyer) of making or maintaining Transactions during such Pricing Rate Period, Buyer shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Seller as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, the Pricing Rate with respect to such Transaction for such Pricing Rate Period, and for any subsequent Pricing Rate Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be a per annum rate equal to the sum of (i) the Federal Funds Rate, (ii) 0.25% and (iii) the Applicable Spread (the “Alternative Rate”).
(m) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the date of the Agreement, the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for Buyer to effect LIBOR Transactions as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, (a) the commitment of Buyer hereunder to enter into new LIBOR Transactions and to continue LIBOR Transactions as such shall forthwith be canceled, and (b) the LIBOR Transactions then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Alternative Rate Transactions on the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period or within such earlier period as may be required by law. If any such conversion of a LIBOR Transaction occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period with respect to such LIBOR Transaction, Seller shall pay to Buyer such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3(n).
(n) Upon demand by Buyer, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any net loss or expense (not to include any lost profit or opportunity) (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which Buyer actually sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) default by Seller in terminating any Transaction after Seller has given a notice in accordance with Section 3(g) of a termination of a Transaction, (ii) any payment of all or any portion of the Repurchase Price, as the case may be, on any day other than a Remittance Date (including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by Buyer to maintain Transactions hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, provided Seller shall not be obligated to reimburse Buyer for the incremental cost of reemploying funds or terminating deposits which arise solely as a result of Buyer depositing funds or employing funds at a rate calculated other than by reference to LIBOR (as defined herein)) or (iii) default by Seller in selling Eligible Loans after Seller has notified Buyer of a proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed to purchase such Eligible Loans in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement. A certificate as to such costs, losses, damages and expenses, setting forth the calculations therefor shall be submitted promptly by Buyer to Seller and shall be conclusive and binding on Seller in the absence of manifest error.
(o) If (A) the Transactions are characterized by a U.S. Federal, state or local taxing authority in a manner other than as described in Section 23 of this Annex I, or (B) after the date of the Agreement, the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer made subsequent to the date hereof:
|
25 |
|
(i) shall subject Buyer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Transaction Documents, any Purchased Loan or any Transaction, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on Buyer’s overall net income);
(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBO Rate hereunder; or
(iii) shall impose on Buyer any other condition due to the Agreement or the Transactions;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions or to reduce any amount receivable under the Transaction Documents in respect thereof; then, in any such case, Seller shall pay Buyer, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor is received by Seller, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Buyer for such increased cost payable or reduced amount receivable. If Buyer becomes aware that it is entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3(o), it shall notify Seller in writing of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to the calculation of any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of the Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Loans.
(p) If Buyer shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof does have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer to be material, then from time to time, after submission by Buyer to Seller of a written request therefor, Seller shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Buyer for such reduction. A certificate as to the calculation of any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of the Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Loans.
(q) If any of the events described in Section 3(k), Section 3(l), Section 3(n) or Section 3(o) result in Buyer’s election to use the Alternative Rate or Buyer’s request for additional amounts, then Seller shall have the option to notify Buyer in writing of its intent to terminate the Transactions and repurchase the Purchased Loans no later than one (1) Business Day after notice is given to Buyer in accordance with Section 3(g). The election by Seller to terminate the Transactions in accordance with this Section 3(q) shall not relieve Seller for liability with respect to any additional amounts or increased costs actually incurred by Buyer prior to the actual repurchase of the Purchased Loans.
(r) The facility under the Agreement shall terminate on June 29, 2009; provided that Seller may make a written request not later than 45 days prior to such Facility Termination Date for extension of the term thereof for a period to be agreed by Buyer and Seller, which extension request shall be subject to
|
26 |
|
Buyer’s approval in its sole and absolute discretion. Buyer’s failure to respond to Seller’s written request within 15 days of such request shall be deemed an automatic denial to Seller’s request to extend the term of the facility hereunder.
4. |
MANDATORY PAYMENT OR DELIVERY OF ADDITIONAL ASSETS |
Paragraphs 4 (e) and (f) of the Agreement (“Margin Maintenance”) shall be deleted in their entirety and Paragraphs 4(a), (b), (c) and (d) of the Agreement are hereby deleted and replaced in their entirety with the following provisions of this Section 4:
(a) Buyer may determine and re-determine the Asset Base on any Business Day and on as many Business Days as it may elect. If at any such time the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Portfolio Loans is greater than the aggregate Asset Base as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion and notified to Seller on any Business Day (a “Margin Deficit”), then Seller shall, no later than one (1) Business Day after receipt of such notice, either deliver to Buyer (A) cash (which shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price of each Purchased Loan pro rata) or (B) additional assets acceptable to Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion in such amounts that after giving effect to such delivery of cash or other assets, the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Portfolio Loans does not exceed the Asset Base as re-determined by Buyer after giving effect to the delivery of cash (or other assets) by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Section 4(a).
(b) If at any time a Purchased Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, Buyer may, in its sole discretion and without regard to any determination of the Market Value of such Defaulted Loan, notify Seller that such Purchased Loan has become a Defaulted Loan and require that the related Repurchase Price be paid in whole or in part, in the sole discretion of Buyer. Not later than one (1) Business Day after the receipt of such notice, Seller shall prepay in whole or in part, as applicable, the related Repurchase Price of such Defaulted Loan. Buyer may, in its sole discretion, determine and re-determine the amount to be prepaid irrespective of whether or not any statement of fact contained in any Officer's Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3(e)(3) or (ii) any representation of Seller set forth in Section 10(a)(xix) was true to Seller's actual knowledge.
(c) If at any time the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Portfolio Loans is less than the aggregate Asset Base as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion and notified to Seller on any Business Day Seller requests such notification (a “Margin Excess”), then Seller may, upon providing written notice to Buyer by 3 p.m. on the Business Day prior to the date funds are requested, request that Buyer advance additional funds (not to exceed such Margin Excess) (a “Margin Excess Advance”) to Seller in respect of the Purchased Loans. On the date set forth in such request, Buyer shall transfer cash to Seller in the amount of such Margin Excess Advance. Each Margin Excess Advance by Buyer to Seller shall increase the Repurchase Price of one or more Purchased Loans (such aggregate increase not to exceed such Margin Excess Advance) as Buyer shall determine in its sole discretion.
(d) To the extent Seller has an obligation to advance additional funds under one or more Purchased Loans, provided a Margin Deficit does not then exist, Buyer agrees to transfer to Seller cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount being advanced by Seller and (ii) the Purchase Percentage for the related Purchased Loan or such lesser amount determined by Buyer, such that after giving effect to the cash transfer, a Margin Deficit would not result. The transfer of cash under this Section 4(d) shall be accounted for as a Margin Excess Advance.
5. |
INCOME PAYMENTS AND PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS |
|
27 |
|
Paragraph 5 of the Agreement (“Income Payments”) is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following provisions of this Section 5:
(a) On or before the date hereof, Seller and Buyer shall establish and maintain with the Depository Bank a deposit account owned by, in the name of and under the sole control of Buyer with respect to which the Blocked Account Agreement shall have been executed (such account, together with any replacement or successor thereof, the “Blocked Account”) and deliver to Buyer a Blocked Account Agreement. Seller shall cause all Income with respect to the Purchased Loans or other assets (if cash) delivered under Section 4(a) to be deposited in the Blocked Account no later than the next Business Day following its collection and receipt thereof. Simultaneously with the transfer of any Purchased Loan under Section 3, Seller shall deliver to each Mortgagor or obligor (or the related collection account bank, as applicable), or the related lead lender or servicer under a Purchased Loan an irrevocable direction letter in the form attached as Exhibit VII to this Annex I instructing such Person to remit to the Blocked Account all amounts payable to Seller under the related Purchased Loan (unless such Mortgagor or obligor or related servicer or lender is already remitting payments to the Servicer, whereupon Seller shall direct Servicer to remit all such amounts into the Blocked Account and service such payments in accordance with the Servicing Agreement and the provisions hereof) and shall provide to Buyer written proof of such delivery. If a Mortgagor or obligor (or the related collection account bank) or the related lead lender or servicer under a Purchased Loan forwards any Income with respect to such Purchased Loan to Seller rather than directly to the Blocked Account, Seller shall (i) deliver an additional irrevocable direction letter to the applicable Person and make other commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Person to forward such amounts directly to the Blocked Account and (ii) hold such amounts in trust for Buyer and immediately deposit in the Blocked Account any such amounts. All Income in respect of the Portfolio Loans, which may include payments in respect of associated Hedging Transactions entered into by an underlying obligor with respect to a Purchased Loan and pledged to Seller as collateral for a Purchased Loan, shall be deposited directly into, or, if applicable, remitted directly from the applicable underlying collection account to, the Blocked Account. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Income on deposit in the Blocked Account in respect of the Portfolio Loans and the associated Hedging Transactions during each Collection Period shall be remitted to Seller on a daily basis. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Buyer may terminate such remittances and amounts on deposit in the Blocked Account will be applied in accordance with Section 5(d).
(b) Seller shall pay to Buyer on each Remittance Date, an amount equal to the aggregate Price Differential which has accrued and is outstanding in respect of the Transactions as of each such Remittance Date and shall pay to Servicer its Servicing Fees and any “Servicing Expenses”, “Additional Servicing Compensation” and “Servicing Advances” (as such terms are defined in the Servicing Agreement) in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement.
(c) If Seller shall receive a Principal Payment in respect of any Purchased Loan, not later than one (1) Business Day after receipt of such Principal Payment, Seller shall (subject to the provisions of Section 3(j)) pay the Repurchase Price in respect of such Purchased Loan in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the product of the amount of such Principal Payment multiplied by the Purchase Percentage applicable to the related Purchased Loan and (ii) such greater amount, such that after giving effect to such payment of the applicable Repurchase Price, the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Portfolio Loans does not exceed the Asset Base, as determined by Buyer after giving effect to such payment. Seller shall pay to Buyer on the Remittance Date, the full Repurchase Price of any Purchased Loan in respect of which a Principal Payment has been received, or, if the Principal Payment is less than the Repurchase Price, an amount equal to such Principal Payment.
(d) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Income on deposit in the Blocked Account in respect of the Purchased Loans and the associated Hedging Transactions shall be
|
28 |
|
applied on the Business Day next following the Business Day on which such funds are deposited in the Blocked Account as follows:
(i) first, to make payment in respect of any outstanding Servicing Fees and “Servicing Expenses”, “Additional Servicing Compensation” (other than “Termination Fees”) and “Servicing Advances” (as such terms are defined in the Servicing Agreement);
(ii) second, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price Differential which has accrued and is outstanding in respect of the Transactions as of such Business Day;
(iii) third, to make payment to Buyer in respect of Costs and all other amounts payable by Seller and outstanding hereunder;
(iv) fourth, to make a payment to Buyer on account of the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Purchased Loans until the aggregate Repurchase Price for all of the Purchased Loans has been reduced to zero; and
|
(v) |
fifth, to remit to Seller the remainder. |
(e) If at any time during the term of any Transaction any Income is distributed to Seller or Seller has otherwise received such Income or Buyer has made a payment in respect of such Income pursuant to this Section 5, and for any reason (other than a breach by Buyer of the Purchased Loan Documents) such amount is required to be returned to an obligor under such Purchased Loan (either before or after the Repurchase Date), Buyer may provide Seller with notice of such required return, and Seller shall pay the amount of such required return to Buyer by 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the Business Day following Seller’s receipt of such notice.
(f) Subject to the other provisions hereof, Seller shall be responsible for all Costs in respect of any Purchased Loans to the extent it would be so obligated if the Purchased Loans had not been sold to Buyer. Buyer shall provide Seller with notice of any Costs promptly upon receiving such notice, and Seller shall pay the amount of any Costs to Buyer by 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after Buyer has informed Seller that such amount is due under the Purchased Loan Documents and (ii) three (3) Business Days following Seller’s receipt of such notice.
6. |
SECURITY INTEREST |
Paragraph 6 of the Agreement (“Security Interest”) is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following provisions of this Section 6:
(a) Buyer and Seller intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Loans for all purposes (other than for U.S. Federal, state and local income or franchise tax purposes) and not loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Loans. However, in the event any Transaction is deemed to be a loan, Seller shall be deemed to have pledged to Buyer as security for the performance by Seller of its obligations under such Transaction and shall be deemed to have granted to Buyer a security interest in (i) the Blocked Account, (ii) all of the Purchased Loans (including those identified in Confirmations, (iii) all Income from the Purchased Loans and (iv) all proceeds of all of the foregoing.
(b) To the extent Buyer is deemed to have a security interest with respect to the Purchased Loans, and with respect to the security interests granted in subsection (c) of this Section 6, Buyer shall have all of the rights and may exercise all of the remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and any
|
29 |
|
other applicable law. In furtherance of the foregoing, (1) Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause to be filed as a protective filing with respect to the Purchased Loans and as a UCC filing with respect to the security interests granted in subsection (c)) of this Section 6 (i) a UCC financing statement in the form of Schedule 7-A attached hereto (to be filed in the filing office indicated therein), (ii) amendments to such UCC financing statement in the form of Schedule 7-B attached hereto and having attached to each such UCC financing statement amendment a description of the Purchased Loans which identifies the Purchased Loans by setting forth (a) the name of the borrower with respect to each Purchased Loan, (b) the loan agreement (including the date) or other document, agreement or instrument pursuant to which each Purchased Loan was made or is governed, and (c) the initial or then outstanding principal amount of each Purchased Loan, and (iii) such other UCC filings, in such locations as may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfection and priority of the outright transfer and the security interest granted hereby (including under Section 22 of this Annex I) and, in each case, continuation statements and any amendments thereto (collectively, the “Filings”), and shall forward copies of such Filings to Buyer upon completion thereof, and (b) Seller shall from time to time, at its own expense, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further filings, instruments and documents and take all such further actions as may be necessary or desirable or as may be requested by Buyer with respect to the perfection and priority of the outright transfer of the Purchased Loans and the security interest deemed granted hereunder and in the Purchased Loans and the rights and remedies of the Buyer with respect to the Purchased Loans (including under Section 22 of this Annex I) (including the payments of any fees and taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of the Agreement).
(c) Seller hereby pledges to Buyer, as security for the performance by Seller of its obligations under all Transactions, all Hedging Transactions relating to Purchased Loans entered into by Seller and all proceeds thereof. Seller shall take all action as is necessary or desirable to obtain consent to assignment of any such Hedging Transaction to Buyer and shall cause the counterparty under each such Hedging Transaction to enter into such document or instrument satisfactory to Buyer, Seller and such counterparty, pursuant to which such counterparty will covenant and agree to accept notice from Buyer to redirect payments under such Hedging Transaction as Buyer may direct. So long as no Event of Default shall be continuing, Buyer agrees that it will not redirect payments under any Hedging Transaction pledged to Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Section 6(c).
7. |
PAYMENT, TRANSFER AND CUSTODY |
Paragraph 7 of the Agreement (“Payment and Transfer”) is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following provisions of this Section 7:
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, on the Purchase Date for each Transaction, ownership of the Purchased Loans and all rights thereunder shall be transferred to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase Price to an account of Seller specified in the Confirmation relating to such Transaction. On the Purchase Date for the first Transaction, Buyer will provide Seller with a power of attorney, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit IV-2 hereto, in recordable form, allowing Seller to administer, operate and service such Purchased Loans. The power of attorney shall be binding upon Buyer and Buyer’s successors and assigns.
(b) With respect to each Table Funded Purchased Loan, Seller shall cause the Bailee to deliver to the Custodian (with a copy to Buyer) by no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time), on the Purchase Date, by facsimile the related promissory note (or the participation certificate, as applicable), the Insured Closing Letter and Escrow Instructions, if any, the Bailee Agreement and a Trust Receipt issued by the Bailee thereunder on or before the related Purchase Date.

CERTAIN RIGHTS OF BUYER WITH RESPECT TO THE PURCHASED LOANS |
Paragraph 8 of the Agreement (“Segregation of Purchased Securities”) is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following provisions of this Section 8:
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, title to all Purchased Loans shall pass to Buyer on the applicable Purchase Date, and Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of its interest in the Purchased Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Purchased Loans. Nothing in the Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Loans with Persons in conformity with the terms and conditions of the Purchased Loans or otherwise selling, transferring, pledging, repledging, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of its interest in the Purchased Loans to Persons in conformity with the terms and conditions to the Purchased Loans, but no such transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to transfer the Purchased Loans to Seller pursuant to Section 3 of this Annex I or of Buyer’s obligation to credit or pay Income to, or apply Income to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to Section 5 of this Annex I or otherwise affect the rights, obligations and remedies of any party to the Agreement. Any such repurchase transaction and any pledge, repledge, hypothecation or rehypothecation in connection with a Financing Transaction may be to any Person other than a Disqualified Transferee; provided that Buyer, other than in connection with a Financing Transaction, may assign or participate its rights’ under the Transaction Documents or any Transaction only in accordance with Section 17 of this Annex I, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or the prior written consent of Seller has been obtained by Buyer.

SUBSTITUTION |
Paragraph 9 of the Agreement (“Substitution”) is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following provisions of this Section 9:
(a) In the case of any Transaction for which the Repurchase Date is other than the Business Day immediately following the Purchase Date, Seller shall have the right, subject to the proviso to this sentence, upon notice to Buyer, which notice shall be given at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on such Business Day, to substitute substantially the same Eligible Loans for any Purchased Loans, provided, however, that Buyer may elect, by the close of business on the Business Day notice is received, or by the close of the next Business Day if notice is given after 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on such day, not to accept such substitution in its sole and absolute discretion. In the event such substitution is accepted by Buyer, such substitution shall be made by Seller’s transfer to Buyer of such other Eligible Loans and Buyer’s transfer to Seller of such Purchased Loans, and after substitution, the substituted Eligible Loans shall be deemed to be Purchased Loans subject to the terms of the Agreement (including but not limited to the margin provisions of Section 4 of this Annex I). Each such substitution shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Seller that each substitute loan is an Eligible Loan and that after giving effect to such substitution, the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Portfolio Loans shall not exceed the aggregate Asset Base. In the event Buyer elects not to accept such substitution, Buyer shall offer Seller the right to terminate the Transaction.

46 |
|

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing with respect to Seller, the following rights and remedies shall be available to Buyer:
(i) At the option of Buyer, exercised by written notice to Seller (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised, even if no notice is given, immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency), the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (the date on which such option is exercised or deemed to have been exercised being referred to hereinafter as the “Accelerated Repurchase Date”) (and any Transaction for which the related Purchase Date has not yet occurred shall be canceled).
(ii) If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in Section 14(b)(i):
|
(A) |
Seller’s obligations hereunder to repurchase all Purchased Loans shall become immediately due and payable on and as of the Accelerated Repurchase Date and all Income deposited in the Blocked Account shall be retained by Buyer and applied to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder; and |
|
(B) |
to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Repurchase Price with respect to each Transaction (determined as of the Accelerated Repurchase Date) shall be increased by the aggregate amount obtained by daily application of, on a 360 day per year basis for the actual number |
|
47 |
|
of days during the period from and including the Accelerated Repurchase Date to but excluding the date of payment of the Repurchase Price (as so increased), (x) the Pricing Rate applicable upon an Event of Default for such Transaction multiplied by (y) the Repurchase Price for such Transaction (decreased by (I) any amounts actually remitted to Buyer by Seller from time to time pursuant to Section 5 and applied to such Repurchase Price to the extent such amounts are not already included in the computation of the Repurchase Price and (II) any amounts applied to the Repurchase Price pursuant Section 14(b)(iii) of this Annex I); and
|
(C) |
the Custodian shall, upon the request of Buyer (with simultaneous copy of such request to Seller), deliver to Buyer all instruments, certificates and other documents then held by the Custodian relating to the Purchased Loans. |
(iii) Buyer may, after ten (10) days notice to Seller of Buyer’s intent to take such action (which notice may be the notice given under subsection (b)(i) of this Section 14), (A) immediately sell, at a public or private sale in a commercially reasonable manner and at such price or prices as Buyer may reasonably deem satisfactory any or all of the Purchased Loans or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Loans, to give Seller credit for such Purchased Loans in an amount equal to the Market Value of such Purchased Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price for such Purchased Loans and any other amounts owing by Seller under the Transaction Documents. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Loans effected pursuant to this Section 14(b)(iii) shall be applied, (v) first, to the costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with Seller’s default; (w) second, to costs of cover and/or Hedging Transactions, if any; (x) third, to the Repurchase Price; (y) fourth, to any other outstanding obligation of Seller to Buyer or its Affiliates pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and (z) the balance, if any, to Seller.
(iv) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Loans on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Purchased Loans may not be liquid. In view of the nature of the Purchased Loans, the parties agree that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, liquidation of a Transaction or the Purchased Loans shall not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Accordingly, Buyer may elect, in its sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Loans, and nothing contained herein shall (A) obligate Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Loans on the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or to liquidate all of the Purchased Loans in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Buyer.
(v) Seller shall be liable to Buyer for the amount of all reasonable expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, actually incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default with respect to Seller, (B) all costs incurred in connection with covering transactions or Hedging Transactions (including short sales) or entering into replacement transactions (C) all damages, losses, judgment costs and expenses of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Buyer relating to or arising out of such Hedging Transactions or covering transactions and (D) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to Seller.
|
48 |
|
(vi) Buyer may exercise any or all of the remedies available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time during the continuance thereof. All rights and remedies arising under the Transaction Documents, as amended from time to time, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Buyer may have.
(vii) Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives any defense Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Purchased Loans, or from any other election of remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.
(viii) Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Buyer, Buyer shall have the right to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by or for account of Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates on behalf of Seller to any obligations of Seller hereunder to Buyer to the credit or for the account of Seller against any and all of such obligations, irrespective of whether Buyer shall have made any demand under the Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, Buyer shall not be required, prior to exercising any remedy in respect of any Event of Default by Seller, to give notice otherwise required hereunder, if Buyer reasonably believes that (A) the Purchased Loans then held by Buyer threaten to decline speedily in value or are of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or (B) any delay occasioned by the giving of such notice will jeopardize Buyer’s ability to recover, by sale or otherwise, all or part of the then-outstanding amount of the Repurchase Price or of any other amounts owed to Buyer in connection therewith.
(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to Buyer, the following rights and remedies shall be available to Seller:
(i) Upon tender by Seller of payment of the aggregate Repurchase Price for all Purchased Loans, together with all other amounts due hereunder to Buyer, Buyer’s right, title and interest in such Purchased Loans shall be deemed transferred to Seller, and Buyer shall simultaneously deliver such Purchased Loans to Seller.
(ii) Seller shall have all the rights and remedies provided herein or provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, local and any other applicable laws, in equity, and under any other agreement between Buyer and Seller (including the right to offset any debt or claim).

NON-ASSIGNABILITY |
The provisions of Paragraph 15 of the Agreement (“Nonassignability; Termination”) are hereby deleted and replaced in their respective entireties by the following provisions of this Section 17:
(a) The rights and obligations of Seller under the Transaction Documents, the Hedging Transactions and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Buyer. Buyer may assign or participate (other than pursuant to a Financing Transaction) its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents and under any Transaction without the prior written consent of Seller only to a Permitted Transferee. Buyer may assign its rights and interests in any Hedging Transaction without the prior written consent of Seller.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to Seller, (A) Buyer shall remain responsible for reviewing and determining the eligibility of any New Loan for purposes of any Transaction and (B) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with any Transaction.
As long as an Event of Default on the part of Seller shall have occurred and be continuing, Buyer may assign or participate its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents and/or any Transaction (including in connection with any Financing Transaction) to any Person.
(b) The Buyer shall maintain a record of ownership identifying all assignees. If any assignee is a non-U.S. Person, such assignee shall timely provide Seller with such forms as may be required to establish the assignee’s status for U.S. withholding tax purposes.
(c) With respect to any issuance by Buyer of a participation in any Transaction, (i) Buyer shall act as exclusive agent for all participants in any dealings with Seller in connection with such Transactions and will maintain, on behalf of Seller, a record of ownership that identifies all participants, and (ii) Seller shall not be obligated to deal directly with any party other than Buyer in connection with such Transactions, or to pay or reimburse Buyer for any costs that would not have been incurred by Buyer had no participation interests in such Transactions been issued.
(d) Subject to the foregoing, the Transaction Documents and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in the Transaction Documents, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties to the Transaction Documents and their respective successors, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under the Transaction Documents.

(a) Notwithstanding the purchase and sale of the Purchased Loans by Seller to Buyer hereunder, Midland Loan Services, Inc. or, with the consent of Buyer (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), an Affiliate of Seller (“Servicer”) shall continue to service the Purchased Loans at Seller’s sole cost and for the benefit of Buyer and, if Buyer shall exercise its rights to pledge or hypothecate the Purchased Loans prior to the Repurchase Date pursuant to Section 8 or 17 of this Annex I, Buyer’s assigns; provided, however, that the obligations of Seller to service any of the Purchased Loans shall cease automatically upon the earliest of (i) an Event of Default, (ii) the date on which the aggregate Repurchase Price for the Portfolio Loans together with all accrued and unpaid Price Differential, unpaid Costs and other amounts payable by Seller to Buyer hereunder have been paid in full or (iii) the transfer of servicing approved by Seller and Buyer, which Buyer’s consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Seller shall service and shall cause the Servicer to service the Purchased Loans in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.
(b) Seller agrees that Buyer is the owner of all servicing records, including but not limited to any and all servicing agreements (the “Servicing Agreements”), files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of Purchased Loans (the “Servicing Records”) so long as the Purchased Loans are subject to the Agreement. Seller covenants to safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) at Buyer’s request.
(c) Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer may, in its sole discretion, (i) sell its right to the Purchased Loans on a servicing released basis or (ii) terminate Servicer or any sub-servicer of the Purchased Loans with or without cause, in each case without payment of any termination fee or such other costs or expenses to Buyer, it being agreed that Seller will pay any and all fees, costs and expenses required to terminate the Servicing Agreement and to effectuate a transfer of servicing to a designee of the Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer shall cause any successor servicer to deliver to Seller reports generated for Buyer relating to the Purchased Loans.
|
54 |
|
(d) Seller shall not, and shall not permit Servicer to, employ sub-servicers to service the Purchased Loans without the prior written approval of Buyer which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Purchased Loans are serviced by a sub-servicer, Seller shall irrevocably assign all rights, title and interest in the Servicing Agreements with such sub-servicer to Buyer.
(e) Seller shall cause Servicer and any sub-servicers engaged by Seller to execute a letter agreement with Buyer acknowledging Buyer’s security interest in the Purchased Loans and the Servicing Agreements and agreeing that each such sub-servicer shall deposit all Income with respect to the Purchased Loans in the Blocked Account, all in such manner as shall be reasonably acceptable to Buyer.
(f) In the event Seller or its Affiliate is servicing any Purchased Loan, Seller shall permit Buyer to inspect Seller’s or its Affiliate's servicing facilities, as the case may be, for the purpose of satisfying Buyer that Seller or its Affiliate, as the case may be, has the ability to service such Purchased Loans as provided in the Agreement.
(g) Seller shall cause the Servicer to provide a copy of each report and notice sent to Seller to be sent to Buyer concurrently therewith.
23. |
TREATMENT FOR TAX PURPOSES |
It is the intention of the parties that, for U.S. Federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Transactions constitute a financing, and that the Seller is, and, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, will continue to be, treated as the owner of the Purchased Loans for such purposes. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Seller and Buyer agree to treat the Transactions as described in the preceding sentence on any and all filings with any U.S. Federal, state or local taxing authority.
24. |
INTENT |
The provisions of Paragraph 19 of the Agreement (“Intent”) are hereby deleted and replaced in their respective entireties by the following provisions of this Section 24:
The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except in so far as the type of asset subject to the Transaction or the term of that Transaction would render such definition inapplicable). The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.
25. |
INTENTIONALLY OMITTED |
26. |
MISCELLANEOUS |
The provisions of Paragraph 20 of the Agreement (“Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections”) are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced by the following provisions of this Section 26:
(a) Time is of the essence under the Transaction Documents and all Transactions thereunder and all references to a time shall mean New York time in effect on the date of the action unless otherwise expressly stated in the Transaction Documents.
|
55 |
|
(b) All rights, remedies and powers of Buyer hereunder and in connection herewith are irrevocable and cumulative, and not alternative or exclusive, and shall be in addition to all other rights, remedies and powers of Buyer whether under law, equity or agreement. In addition to the rights and remedies granted to it in the Agreement to the extent applicable, Buyer shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and any other applicable law.
(c) The Transaction Documents may be executed in counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
(d) The headings in the Transaction Documents are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of the Transaction Documents.
(e) Each provision of the Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of the Agreement shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of the Agreement.
(f) This Annex I, together with the Agreement contain a final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to such subject matter, superseding all prior oral or written understandings.
(g) The parties understand that the Agreement is a legally binding agreement that may affect such party’s rights. Each party represents to the other that it has received legal advice from counsel of its choice regarding the meaning and legal significance of the Agreement and that it is satisfied with its legal counsel and the advice received from it.
(h) Should any provision of the Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed against any Person by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the Person who itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties have participated in the preparation of the Agreement.
(i) Buyer agrees not to seek before any court or governmental agency to have any director or officer of the Seller held personally liable for any action or inactions of the Seller or any obligations of the Seller under the Agreement or the related Transaction Documents, except if such actions or inactions are the result of the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such director or officer.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
REGARDING THE PURCHASED LOANS
With respect to each Purchased Loan, Seller represents and warrants on each Purchase Date as follows, other than as set forth on the exception report provided to Buyer in accordance with the Agreement:
1. Ownership of Purchased Loans. Immediately prior to the transfer to Buyer of the Purchased Loan, Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, the Purchased Loan. Seller has full right, power and authority to transfer and assign the Purchased Loans to or at the direction of Buyer and has validly and effectively conveyed (or caused to be conveyed) to Buyer or its designee all of Seller’s legal and beneficial interest in and to the Purchased Loan free and clear of any and all pledges, liens, charges, security interests and/or other encumbrances. The sale of the Purchased Loan to Buyer or its designee does not require Seller to obtain any approval or consent that has not been obtained. No Purchased loan sold to Buyer hereunder was acquired by Seller from an Affiliate of Seller unless otherwise approved by Buyer in writing.
2. Additional Representations: As to each Purchased Loan that is a Mortgage Loan or a First Mortgage B-Note and to the extent applicable, each Mezzanine Loan and Other Mezzanine Investment and the related Mortgaged Properties on a Purchase Date and each date on which Market Value is determined, Seller shall be deemed to make the following representations and warranties to Buyer as of such date:
(a) Purchased Loan Schedule and Purchased Loan Information. The information set forth in the Purchased Loan Schedule and the Purchased Loan Information is complete, true and correct in all material respects.
(b) Payment Record. The Purchased Loan has not been since the date of origination, and currently is not, thirty (30) or more days delinquent, and the underlying obligor is not in default thereunder beyond any applicable grace period for the payment of any obligation to pay principal and interest, taxes, insurance premiums and required reserves.
(c) Purchased Loan Document Status. (i) The Purchased Loan Documents have been, to the extent necessary, duly and properly executed, and the Purchased Loan Documents, to the extent applicable, are legal, valid and binding obligations of the underlying obligor, and their terms are enforceable against the underlying obligor, subject only to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally and to the application of general principles of equity; (ii) the Purchased Loan Documents contain customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against each related Mortgaged Property of the material benefits of the security, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure, and there is no exemption available to the underlying obligor which would materially interfere with such right to foreclosure; and (iii) there is no valid defense, counterclaim or right of offset or rescission available to the related underlying obligor with respect to any Purchased Loan Document.
(d) Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property is covered by an American Land Title Association (or an equivalent form thereof as adopted in the applicable jurisdiction) owner’s and lender’s title
|
Exhibit V-1 |
|
insurance policy (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of the related Purchased Loan after all advances of principal. Each lender’s Title Policy insures that the related Mortgage is a valid first or second, as applicable, priority lien on such Mortgaged Property, subject only to (i) the lien of current real property taxes, ground rents, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (ii) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, in the reasonable judgment of Seller, materially interferes with the current use of the related Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the underlying obligor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due or the value of the related Mortgaged Property; (iii) the exceptions (general and specific) set forth in such policy, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, in the reasonable judgment of Seller, materially interferes with the current use of the related Mortgaged Property or security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, with the underlying obligor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due or the value of the related Mortgaged Property; and (iv) in the event such Title Policy has yet to be issued, an escrow letter or a marked up title insurance commitment on which the required premium has been paid exists which evidences that such Title Policy will be issued. Each 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 and, to Seller’s knowledge, 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 Purchased Loan to Buyer, such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) will inure to the benefit of Buyer as its interest may appear without the consent of or notice to the insurer. In the case of a Mezzanine Loan, if obtained, an Eagle 9 UCC Title Policy (“UCC Policy”) insures Seller’s security interest in the equity interest pledged thereunder. Each UCC Policy insures that Seller has a first priority perfected security interest in the pledged equity interests and provides coverage in an amount equal to the original principal amount of the related Purchased Loan and immediately following the transfer and assignment of the related Purchased Loan to Buyer, such UCC Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) will inure to the benefit of Buyer as its interest may appear without the consent of or notice to the insurer.
(e) No Mechanics’ Liens. There are no mechanics’, materialman’s or other similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or materials affecting the Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the Mortgage, unless such lien is insured against under the related title insurance policy.
(f) Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property, including any buildings or other improvements thereon, is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by (a) a fire and extended perils insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of such Purchased Loan providing coverage against loss or damage sustained by reason of fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a strike, civil commotion, terrorism, aircraft, vehicles and smoke, and, to the extent required as of the date of origination by the originator of such Purchased Loan consistent with its normal commercial mortgage lending practices, against other risks, insured against by persons operating like properties in the locality of the Mortgaged Property in an amount not less than the replacement cost of the Mortgaged Property; (b) a business interruption or rental loss insurance policy, in an amounts generally required by institutional lenders for similar properties (including coverage for terrorism); (c) a flood insurance policy (if any portion of the Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards) and (d) a comprehensive general liability insurance policy in amounts as are generally required by commercial mortgage lenders. Such insurance policy contains a standard mortgagee clause that names Seller as an additional insured and that requires at least thirty days’ (in the case of termination or cancellation other than for nonpayment of premiums) and at least ten days’ (in the case of termination or cancellation for nonpayment of premiums) prior notice to the holder of the Mortgage, and no such notice has been received, including any notice of
|
Exhibit V-2 |
|
nonpayment of premiums, that has not been cured. The Purchased Loan Documents obligate the underlying obligor to maintain or cause to be maintained all such insurance and, at the underlying obligor’s failure to do so, authorize the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the underlying obligor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such underlying obligor.
(g) Condition of the Property; Condemnation. No building or other improvement on any Mortgaged Property has been affected in any material manner or suffered any material loss as a result of any fire, wind, explosion, accident, riot, war, or act of God or the public enemy, and each Mortgaged Property is free of any material damage that would affect materially and adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Purchased Loan and is in good repair. Seller has neither received notice, nor is otherwise aware, of any proceedings pending for the total condemnation of any Mortgaged Property or a partial condemnation of any portion material to the related underlying obligor’s ability to perform its obligations under the related Purchased Loan.
(h) Encroachments; Zoning. None of the improvements located on any Mortgaged Property lies outside of the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties materially encroach upon the Mortgaged Property except those which are insured against by the title insurance policy (including endorsements thereto) issued in connection with the Purchased Loan and all improvements on the Mortgaged Property comply with the applicable zoning laws and/or set-back ordinances in force when improvements were added.
(i) Compliance with Usury Laws. The Purchased Loan, and all parties involved in the origination and servicing of the Purchased Loan, complied as of the date of origination with, or is exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury. Any and all other requirements of any federal, state or local laws, including, without limitation, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws, applicable to the Purchased Loan have been complied with.
(j) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since the date of origination of the Purchased Loan, the terms of the Purchased Loan have not been impaired, waived, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or modified in any respect (except with respect to modifications the economic terms of which are reflected in the Purchased Loan Schedule and which are evidenced by documents in the Purchased Loan File delivered to the Custodian) and no portion of the Mortgaged Property has been released from the lien of the Mortgage or other Purchased Loan Document in any manner.
(k) Mortgage Recording Taxes. All applicable Mortgage recording taxes and other filing fees have been paid in full or deposited with the issuer of the title insurance policy issued in connection with the Mortgage Loan for payment upon recordation of the relevant documents.
(l) Assignment of Leases. Each Assignment of Leases, if any, creates a valid assignment of, or a valid first or second priority, as applicable, security interest in the related underlying obligor’s interest in all leases, sub-leases, licenses or other agreements pursuant to which any Person is entitle to occupy, use or possess all of any portion of the related Mortgage, subject only to a license granted to the relevant underlying obligor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such leases, including the right to operate the related Mortgage Property, subject only to those exceptions described in clause (e) above. No person other than the relevant underlying obligor owns any interest in any payments due under such leases that is superior to or of equal priority with the mortgagee’s interest therein, subject only to those exceptions described in clause (d) above.
(m) Underlying Representations and Warranties. Seller has taken no action, nor has the underlying obligor taken any action, that would cause the representations and warranties made by the underlying obligor in any of the Purchased Loan Documents not to be true.
|
Exhibit V-3 |
|
(n) No Holdbacks. The proceeds of the Purchased Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no obligation for future advances with respect thereto. With respect to each Purchased Loan, any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any funds escrowed for such purpose that were to have been complied with on or before the Purchase Date have been complied with, or any such funds so escrowed have not been released.
(o) Inspections. Seller or its representative has inspected or caused to be inspected each Mortgaged Property within six (6) months preceding the related Purchase Date. The Purchased Loan File for Mortgaged Property constituting real property includes a property survey, certified to the Seller, its successors and assigns, and the title insurance company, reciting that it is in accordance with most recent minimum standards for title surveys as determined by the ALTA, with the signature and seal of a licensed engineer or surveyor affixed thereto.
(p) Contingent Interest; Convertible Notes. The Purchased Loan does not have a shared appreciation feature, other contingent interest feature or negative amortization. The indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note is not convertible to an ownership interest in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgage, and Seller has not financed, nor does it own, directly or indirectly, any equity of any form in the Mortgaged Property or the underlying obligor. The Mortgage Note or Mezzanine Note, as applicable, does not by its terms provide for the capitalization or forbearance of interest.
(q) Cross-Collateralization; Cross-Default. The Purchased Loan is not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other loan other than another Purchased Loan, is a whole loan and contains no equity participation by the lender.
(r) Fraud. No fraudulent acts were committed by Seller in connection with the origination process of the Purchased Loan.
(s) Taxes and Assessments. All taxes, water charges, sewer rates, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments and any other outstanding fees or charges that prior to the date of origination of the Purchased Loan became due and owing in respect of the related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of funds in an amount sufficient to cover such payments has been established or are insured against by the title insurance policy issued in connection with the origination of the Purchased Loan.
(t) No Material Default. No loan is a Defaulted Loan and there is no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under any of the Purchased Loan Documents and Seller has not received actual notice of any event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would and does constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration; no waiver of the foregoing exists and no person other than the holder of the Mortgage Note or Mezzanine Note, as the case may be, may declare any of the foregoing.
(u) Environmental Conditions. With respect to each Mortgaged Property, a environmental site assessment conducted by a licensed qualified engineer. Seller has reviewed each such report and update. Where such environmental report disclosed the existence of a material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting any Mortgaged Property, (i) a party not related to the underlying obligor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance, (ii) the related underlying obligor was required either to provide additional security and/or to obtain an operations and maintenance plan or (iii) the related underlying obligor provided evidence that applicable federal, state or local governmental authorities would not take any action, or require the taking of any action, in respect of such condition or circumstance. The related Purchased Loan Documents contain provisions pursuant to which the related underlying obligor or a principal of such underlying obligor has agreed to indemnify the mortgagee for damages resulting from violations of any applicable environmental laws. Seller, having
|
Exhibit V-4 |
|
made no independent inquiry other than reviewing the environmental reports and updates referenced herein and without other investigation or inquiry, has no knowledge of any material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting any Mortgaged Property that was not disclosed in the related report and/or update. Each Mortgage requires the related Mortgagor to comply with all applicable federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations in all material respects. Seller has not received any actual notice of a material violation of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or any applicable federal, state or local environmental law with respect to any Mortgaged Property that was not disclosed in the related report and/or update. Seller has not taken any actions which would cause any Mortgaged Property not to be in compliance with all federal, state and local laws pertaining to environmental hazards.
(v) Acceleration. The Purchased Loan Documents contain provisions for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Purchased Loan if (A) the underlying obligor voluntarily transfers or encumbers all or any portion of any related Mortgaged Property; or (B) any direct or indirect interest in underlying obligor is voluntarily transferred or assigned, other than, in each case, as permitted under the terms and conditions of the Purchased Loan Documents.
(w) Actions Concerning Purchased Loans. There is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against the underlying obligor or any Mortgaged Property an adverse outcome of which is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(x) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by Seller, and the origination practices of Seller, to the extent applicable, have been in all respects legal, proper and prudent and have met customary industry standards.
(y) Assignability. In connection with the assignment, transfer or conveyance of any individual Mortgage, the Mortgage Note and Mortgage contain no provision limiting the right or ability of Seller to assign, transfer and convey the Mortgage to any person or entity.
(z) Buyer under a Deed of Trust. If a Mortgage is a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with the sale or release of the Mortgaged Property following default or payment of the Purchased Loan.
(aa) Insurance Proceeds. The Mortgage provides that any insurance proceeds in respect of a casualty loss or taking will be applied either to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds (provided that such proceeds exceed the threshold amount described in the loan documents) as the repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Loan together with any accrued interest thereon, except to the extent of any excess proceeds after restoration.
(bb) Flood Zone. No Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area as defined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or if it is, flood insurance is required and has been received under the Mortgage.

(mm) Appraisal. The Purchased Loan File contains an Appraisal that is signed by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by Seller, who, to Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Purchased Loan, and the Appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the requirements of Title XI of the Federal Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the date the Purchased Loan was originated.

Blocked Account established by Capital Trust, Inc. (“Seller”) and Midland Loan Services, Inc. (“Servicer”) pursuant to the Amended and Restated Master Repurchase Agreement dated as of June 30, 2006 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Repurchase Agreement”) among the Seller and Xxxxxxx Sachs Mortgage Company (“Buyer”) |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We refer to the collection account established by the Seller and the Buyer, pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, at PNC Bank, National Association (“Depository Bank”), entitled “Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Mortgage Company, as Buyer under that certain Amended and Restated Master Repurchase Agreement, dated June 30, 2006” Account No. 1015527379, ABA # 000000000, PNC Bank, Pittsburgh, PA, (the “Collection Account” or the “Blocked Account”). This Blocked Account Agreement amends and restates that certain Blocked Account Agreement between the parties dated May 28, 2003. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Repurchase Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Repurchase Agreement or any Transaction entered into thereunder and this Blocked Account Agreement, the Repurchase Agreement shall prevail. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, this Blocked Account Agreement will govern and control the performance of Depository Bank.
1. Seller shall, and shall cause the Servicer, from time to time, to deposit or cause to be deposited directly into, or if applicable, remitted directly from the applicable underlying collection account to, the Collection Account all Income (including Principal Payments) with respect to the Portfolio Loans, which may include payments in respect of associated Hedging Transactions pledged to Buyer and related to the Portfolio Loans. The Buyer has established a repurchase arrangement with the Seller. By its execution of this letter, the Seller acknowledges that it has transferred all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Blocked Account and any funds from time to time on deposit therein, that such funds are received by Depository Bank for Buyer and are for application against the Seller’s liabilities to the Buyer under the Repurchase Agreement.

Error! Unknown document property name. |
2. Funds in the Blocked Account shall be remitted in accordance with the most recent instructions originated by the Buyer without the further consent of the Seller (the “Distribution Instructions”), which the Buyer agrees, for the benefit of the Seller only, shall be in compliance with the provisions of the Repurchase Agreement. Until Depository Bank shall receive contrary instructions from Buyer, on each Business Day, the Depository Bank shall remit funds on deposit in the Blocked Account to the account of Seller as set forth in Schedule A hereto.
3. Buyer shall deliver the Distribution Instructions to the Depository Bank, Seller and Servicer by facsimile by no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to each Remittance Date.
4. Depository Bank may rely upon any Distribution Instructions originated by Buyer, and Depository Bank shall not have any liability to Buyer for actions taken in reliance on such Distribution Instructions. All distributions made by the Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be (subject to any decree of any court of competent jurisdiction) final, and the Servicer shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by Buyer of any amounts distributed to it.
5. The Blocked Account shall be an interest bearing account. All income and gains from the investment of funds in the Blocked Account shall be retained in the Blocked Account until disbursed in accordance with Section 2 hereof. As between Seller and Buyer, Seller shall treat all income, gains and losses from the investment of amounts in the Blocked Account as its income or loss for federal, state and local income tax purposes.
6. The Blocked Account shall be subject to the sole control of the Buyer and, neither Seller nor Servicer shall have any right of withdrawal from the Blocked Account nor any right to deliver instructions to Depository Bank in respect of the Blocked Account. The Depositary Bank shall accept Distribution Instructions only from the Buyer at all times and shall comply with all instructions of Buyer without any further consent of Seller or Servicer being required.
7. The undersigned parties agree: (a) that Depository Bank will not exercise any right of set off, banker's lien or any similar right in connection with such funds, provided that Depository Bank may set off against the Blocked Account for fees and expenses payable hereunder, for returned deposit items and for adjustments and corrections in respect of transactions in the Blocked Account, including, without limitation, returned checks and other deposits with respect to which Depository Bank fails to receive final payment or settlement; (b) that Depository Bank shall not withdraw, transfer or otherwise dispose of funds from the Blocked Account or permit any other person or entity to withdraw, transfer or otherwise dispose of funds in the Blocked Account except in accordance with the terms of Section 2 hereof, the Distribution Instructions originated by Buyer, and the terms of this Section 7; (c) that for the purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York (the “UCC”), the Blocked Account is a “deposit account”, as defined in Article 9 of the UCC; and (d) upon receipt of written notice of any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim against the Blocked Account or any funds credited thereto, Depository Bank will make reasonable efforts promptly to notify Seller, Buyer and Servicer thereof. The undersigned further agree that if there are insufficient collected funds in the Blocked Account to cover the amount of any returned check or other adjustment or correction to be debited thereto, Seller shall repay Depository Bank the amount of such debit immediately upon demand. If Seller fails to so repay Depository Bank, then, only after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under the Repurchase Agreement, Buyer shall repay Depository Bank for such debit immediately upon demand to the extent that Buyer received the proceeds of the check or other deposit or credit to which the debit relates.

Exhibit VI-2 |
|
8. In the event of a conflict between this Blocked Account Agreement and any other agreement between Depository Bank and Seller, the terms of this Blocked Account Agreement will prevail.
9. This Blocked Account Agreement shall continue in effect until Buyer has notified Depository Bank in writing that this Blocked Account Agreement is terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Depository Bank may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other parties ; provided that it may terminate this Agreement immediately upon prior written notice to the Buyer and Seller, in the event Depository Bank has a reasonable basis to suspect fraud or other illegal activity in connection with the Blocked Account or this Agreement. In the event of immediate termination by Depository Bank, Depository Bank shall transfer all funds in the Blocked Account to Buyer or to its designee, as directed in writing by Buyer.
10. This Blocked Account Agreement and the instructions and notices required or permitted to be executed and delivered hereunder set forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any prior agreement and contemporaneous oral agreements of the parties concerning its subject matter.
11. No amendment, modification or (except as otherwise specified in Section 9 above) termination of this Blocked Account Agreement, nor any assignment of any rights hereunder (except to the extent contemplated under Section 13 below), shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by each of the parties hereto, and any attempt to so amend, modify, terminate or assign except pursuant to such a writing shall be null and void. No waiver of any rights hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.
12. If any term or provision set forth in this Blocked Account Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Blocked Account Agreement, other than those provisions held invalid or unenforceable, shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid of unenforceable term or provision were omitted.
13. The terms of this Blocked Account Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective corporate successors. This Blocked Account Agreement may be assigned by Buyer, Seller and Servicer to any assignee of Buyer, Seller or Servicer, respectively, permitted under the Repurchase Agreement, provided that written notice thereof is given by the applicable assignor to Depository Bank.
14. This Blocked Account Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instruments, and any party hereto may execute this Blocked Account Agreement by signing and delivering one or more counterparts.
15. This Blocked Account Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York. The parties agree that New York is the “bank’s jurisdiction” for purposes of the UCC.
16. Depository Bank may rely, and Depository Bank shall be protected in acting, or refraining from acting, upon any notice (including but not limited to electronically confirmed facsimiles of such notice) believed by Depository Bank to be genuine and to have been given by the proper party or parties.

17. Depository Bank's duties and obligations shall be determined solely by the provisions of this Agreement and Depository Bank shall not be liable except for the performance of its duties and obligations as are set forth herein. Depository Bank shall have no obligation to review, or confirm that any actions taken pursuant to this Agreement comply with, any other agreement or document. Depository Bank shall have no liability to any party to this Agreement or to any other party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement other than for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Substantial compliance by Depository Bank with its standard procedures for the services Depository Bank is providing hereunder shall be deemed to be the exercise by it of ordinary care. In no event shall Depository Bank be liable for any lost profits or for any indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages even if advised of the possibility or likelihood of such damages.
18. Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Depository Bank and its affiliates and parent(s) and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (each an "Indemnified Party") from and against all liabilities, losses, claims, damages, demands, costs and expenses of every kind ("Losses") including, without limitation, Losses incurred as a result of items being deposited in the Blocked Account and being unpaid for any reason, reasonable attorney's fees and the reasonable charges of Depository Bank's in-house counsel, incurred or sustained by any Indemnified Party arising out of Depository Bank's performance of the services contemplated by this Agreement, except to the extent such Losses are the direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Depository Bank.
19. If at any time Depository Bank is served with legal process which it in good faith believes prohibits the disbursement of the funds deposited in the Blocked Account, then Depository Bank shall have the right (i) to place a hold on the funds in the Blocked Account until such time as it receives an appropriate court order or other assurance satisfactory to it as to the disposition of the funds in the Blocked Account, or (ii) to commence, at Seller's expense, an interpleader action in any competent Federal or State Court located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and otherwise to take no further action except in accordance with joint written instructions from Seller and Buyer or in accordance with the final order of a competent court, served on Depository Bank.
