PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:
The Depositor intends to sell Certificates, to be issued hereunder
in multiple Classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial
ownership interest in the Trust to be created hereunder.
As provided herein, the REMIC Administrator will elect to treat the
segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other
related assets subject to this Agreement as a REMIC for federal income tax
purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as "REMIC I".
The Class R-I Certificates will represent the sole class of "residual interests"
in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions under federal income tax law.
The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the REMIC I
Remittance Rate, and the initial Uncertificated Principal Balance for each of
the REMIC I Regular Interests. Determined solely for purposes of satisfying
Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the "latest possible maturity
date" for each REMIC I Regular Interest is the first Distribution Date that is
at least two years after the end of the remaining amortization schedule of the
Mortgage Loan that has, as of the Closing Date, the longest remaining
amortization schedule, irrespective of its scheduled maturity. None of the REMIC
I Regular Interests will be certificated.

designated as "REMIC II". The Class R-II Certificates will represent the sole
class of "residual interests" in REMIC II for purposes of the REMIC Provisions
under federal income tax law. The following table irrevocably sets forth the
designation, the Pass-Through Rate, and the initial Class Principal Balance for
each of the Classes of REMIC II Regular Certificates. Determined solely for

at the Pass-Through Rate applicable to such Class of Certificates for such
Distribution Date, accrued on the related Class Principal Balance or Class
Notional Amount, as the case may be, of such Class of Certificates outstanding

respect of any Class of REMIC II Regular Certificates for any Distribution Date
shall be deemed to have accrued during the applicable Interest Accrual Period.

on which such REO Property is considered to be acquired by the Trust within the

tax purposes.

with all interest, if any, accrued at the related Mortgage Rate on such deferred
interest.
"Additional Trust Fund Expense": Any expense incurred or shortfall
experienced with respect to the Trust Fund and not otherwise included in the

"Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate": With respect to any Mortgage Loan or
REO Loan, for any Distribution Date, (a) if the related Mortgage Note provides

calendar month (or, in the case of a Hyper-Amortization Loan or successor REO
Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date, if such rate is less, the related Net
Mortgage Rate in effect for such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan immediately prior to

on certain contributions set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code).

Person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting
securities, by contract or otherwise and the terms "controlling" and

interest (exclusive, in the case of a Hyper-Amortization Loan after its
Anticipated Repayment Date, of Additional Interest) in accordance with its
terms, and to pay principal in accordance with the amortization schedule (if
any), in effect immediately prior to, and without regard to the occurrence of,
its most recent scheduled maturity date (as such terms and amortization schedule

Servicer to cover Prepayment Interest Shortfalls incurred during the related
Collection Period, net of (b) any portion of the amounts described in clause (a)
of this definition that represents one or more of the following: (i) collected
Monthly Payments that are due on a Due Date following the end of the related
Collection Period, (ii) any payments of principal (including, without
limitation, Principal Prepayments) and interest, Liquidation Proceeds and
Insurance Proceeds received after the end of the related Collection Period,
(iii) Prepayment Premiums, (iv) any amounts payable or reimbursable to any

accurate records of how all such payments and proceeds are actually applied and
are applied for purposes of this Agreement.
(b) Collections in respect of each REO Property (exclusive of
amounts to be applied to the payment of the costs of operating, managing,
maintaining and disposing of such REO Property) shall be applied for purposes of
this Agreement (including, without limitation for purposes of determining
distributions on the Certificates pursuant to Article IV and additional
compensation payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and any
Sub-Servicers) as follows: first, as a recovery of any related unreimbursed
Servicing Advances; second, as a recovery of accrued and unpaid interest
(excluding, in the case of an REO Loan that relates to a Hyper-Amortization Loan
after its Anticipated Repayment Date, Additional Interest) on the related REO
Loan at the related Mortgage Rate to but not including the Due Date in the
Collection Period of receipt; third, as a recovery of principal of the related
REO Loan to the extent of its entire unpaid principal balance; fourth, as a
recovery of any Prepayment Premium then due and owing under such REO Loan;
fifth, as a recovery of any other amounts (including, without limitation,
Default Charges) deemed to be due and owing in respect of the related REO Loan;
and, sixth, in the case of an REO Loan that relates to a Hyper-Amortization Loan
after its Anticipated Repayment Date, as a recovery of accrued and unpaid
Additional Interest on such REO Loan to but not including the date of receipt.
(c) For the purposes of calculating distributions pursuant to
this Agreement, Additional Interest on a Hyper-Amortization Loan or a successor
REO Loan shall be deemed not to constitute principal or any portion thereof and
shall not be added to the unpaid principal balance or Stated Principal Balance
of such Hyper-Amortization Loan or successor REO Loan. To the extent any
Additional Interest is not paid on a current basis, it shall be deemed to be
deferred interest.
(d) Insofar as amounts received in respect of any Mortgage Loan
or REO Property and allocable to fees and charges owing in respect of such
Mortgage Loan or the related REO Loan, as the case may be, that constitute
additional servicing compensation payable to the Master Servicer and/or Special
Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11, are insufficient to cover the full amount of
such fees and charges, such amounts shall be allocated between such of those
fees and charges as are payable to the Master Servicer, on the one hand, and
such of those fees and charges as are payable to the Special Servicer, on the
other, pro rata in accordance with their respective entitlements, and such
payments so made shall constitute the sole amount that will be paid to the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect thereto.
(e) The foregoing applications of amounts received in respect of
any Mortgage Loan or REO Property shall be determined by the Master Servicer and
reflected in the reports to be delivered thereby pursuant to Section 4.02(b).
ARTICLE II
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS; REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES;
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES
SECTION 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
(a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that a common law
trust be established pursuant to this Agreement. _____________________ is hereby
appointed, and does hereby agree to act, as Trustee hereunder and, in such
capacity, to hold the Trust Fund in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of
all present and future Certificateholders. It is not intended that this
Agreement create a partnership or a joint-stock association.
(b) Each of the Depositor and, at the direction of the Depositor
given pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Mortgage Loan
Seller, concurrently with its execution and delivery hereof, does hereby assign,
transfer, sell and otherwise convey to the Trustee without recourse for the
benefit of the Certificateholders all the right, title and interest of the
Depositor and the Mortgage Loan Seller, respectively, in, to and under the
Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule and all other assets
included or to be included in REMIC I. Such assignment includes (i) the Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to this Agreement and all payments under
and proceeds of such Mortgage Loans received or receivable after the Cut-off
Date (other than payments of principal, interest and other amounts due and
payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date), together with all
documents delivered or caused to be delivered hereunder with respect to such
Mortgage Loans by the Mortgage Loan Seller; (ii) any REO Property acquired in
respect of a Mortgage Loan; and (iii) such funds or assets as from time to time
are deposited in the Distribution Account, the Certificate Account and the REO
Account (if established).
It is intended that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans and the related
rights and property by the Depositor and the Mortgage Loan Seller to the
Trustee, as provided in this Section be, and be construed as, an absolute
transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor and the Mortgage Loan Seller to
the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. It is, further, not
intended that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the
Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Trustee to secure a debt or other
obligation of the Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller, as the case may be.
However, in the event that the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the
Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller, or if for any reason this Agreement is
held or deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans, then it is
intended that, (i) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security
agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable
jurisdiction; (ii) the conveyance provided for in this Section shall be deemed
to be a grant by the Depositor and the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Trustee, for
the benefit of the Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of their
respective right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and
interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (A) the Mortgage
Notes, the Mortgages, any related insurance policies and all other documents in
the related Mortgage Files, (B) all amounts payable to the holders of the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and (C) all proceeds of the
conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments,
securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts from time
to time held or invested in the Certificate Account, the Distribution Account or
the REO Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other
property; (iii) the possession by the Trustee or its agent of the Mortgage Notes
and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable
documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be "possession by the secured
party" or possession by a purchaser or a Person designated by such secured
party, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York
Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable
jurisdiction (including, without limitation, Section 9-305, 8-313 or 8-321
thereof); and (d) notifications to, and acknowledgments, receipts or
confirmations from, Persons holding such property shall be deemed to be
notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial
intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose
of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. The Depositor, the
Mortgage Loan Seller and the Trustee 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 Loans, such
security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first
priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term
of this Agreement. At the Depositor's direction, the Trustee shall execute and
deliver, and the Master Servicer shall (at its expense) file, all filings
necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings necessary under
the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction to perfect and
maintain the Trustee's security interest in or lien on the Trust Fund, including
without limitation (A) continuation statements and (B) such other statements as
may be occasioned by any transfer of any interest of the Trustee, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor in the Trust Fund. In connection
herewith, the Trustee shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured
party and creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code as in force in the relevant
jurisdiction.
(c) In connection with the Mortgage Loan Seller's assignment
pursuant to subsection (b) above, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver to and
deposit with, or cause to be delivered to and deposited with, the Trustee or a
Custodian appointed thereby (with a copy to the Master Servicer), on or before
the Closing Date, the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan so assigned by the
Mortgage Loan Seller hereunder. If the Mortgage Loan Seller is unable to deliver
or cause the delivery of any original Mortgage Note, it may deliver a copy of
such Mortgage Note, together with a lost note affidavit, and shall thereby be
deemed to have satisfied the document delivery requirements of this Section
2.01(c). If the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot so deliver, or cause to be
delivered, as to any Mortgage Loan, the original or a copy of any of the
documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses [(ii), (iv), (viii), (xi)(A)
and (xii)] of the definition of "Mortgage File", with evidence of recording or
filing (as the case may be) thereon, solely because of a delay caused by the
public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been
delivered for recordation or filing, as the case may be, the delivery
requirements of this Section 2.01(c) shall be deemed to have been satisfied as
to such missing item, and such missing item shall be deemed to have been
included in the related Mortgage File, provided that a copy of such document or
instrument (without evidence of recording or filing thereon, but certified
(which certificate may relate to multiple documents and/or instruments) by the
Mortgage Loan Seller to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof
submitted for recording or filing, as the case may be) is delivered to the
Trustee or a Custodian appointed thereby on or before the Closing Date, and
either the original of such missing document or instrument, or a copy thereof,
with evidence of recording or filing, as the case may be, thereon, is delivered
to the Trustee or such Custodian within _____ days of the Closing Date (or
within such longer period after the Closing Date as the Trustee may consent to,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as the Mortgage Loan
Seller has provided the Trustee with evidence of such submission for recording
or filing, as the case may be, or has certified to the Trustee as to the
occurrence of such submission for recording or filing, as the case may be, and
is, as certified to the Trustee no less often than monthly, in good faith
attempting to obtain from the appropriate recording or filing office such
original or copy). If the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot or does not so deliver, or
cause to be delivered, as to any Mortgage Loan, the original of any of the
documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses [(iii), (v), and (xi)(B)] of
the definition of "Mortgage File", because such document or instrument has been
delivered for recording or filing, as the case may be, the delivery requirements
of this Section 2.01(c) shall be deemed to have been satisfied as to such
missing item, and such missing item shall be deemed to have been included in the
related Mortgage File, provided that a copy of such document or instrument
(without evidence of recording or filing thereon, but certified (which
certificate may relate to multiple documents and/or instruments) by the Mortgage
Loan Seller to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for
recording or filing, as the case may be) is delivered to the Trustee or a
Custodian appointed thereby on or before the Closing Date, and either the
original of such missing document or instrument, or a copy thereof, with
evidence of recording or filing, as the case may be, thereon, is delivered to
the Trustee or such Custodian within _____ days of the Closing Date (or within
such longer period after the Closing Date as the Trustee may consent to, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as the Mortgage Loan Seller
has provided the Trustee with evidence of such submission for recording or
filing, as the case may be, or has certified to the Trustee as to the occurrence
of such submission for recording or filing, as the case may be, and is, as
certified to the Trustee no less often than monthly, in good faith attempting to
obtain from the appropriate recording or filing office such original or copy).
If the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot so deliver, or cause to be delivered, as to
any Mortgage Loan, the original or a copy of the related lender's title
insurance policy referred to in clause (ix) of the definition of "Mortgage File"
solely because such policy has not yet been issued, the delivery requirements of
this Section 2.01(c) shall be deemed to be satisfied as to such missing item,
and such missing item shall be deemed to have been included in the related
Mortgage File, provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall have delivered to
the Trustee or a Custodian appointed thereby, on or before the Closing Date, a
commitment for title insurance "marked-up" at the closing of such Mortgage Loan,
and the Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver to the Trustee or such Custodian,
promptly following the receipt thereof, the original related lender's title
insurance policy (or a copy thereof). In addition, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, if there exists with respect to any Group of
related Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loans only one original of any document
referred to in the definition of "Mortgage File" covering all the Mortgage Loans
in such Group, then the inclusion of the original of such document in the
Mortgage File for any of the Mortgage Loans in such Group shall be deemed an
inclusion of such original in the Mortgage File for each such Mortgage Loan.
None of the Trustee, any Custodian, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer shall in any way be liable for any failure by the Mortgage Loan
Seller to comply with the delivery requirements of this Section 2.01(c).
If any of the endorsements referred to in clause (i) of the definition of
"Mortgage File", any of the assignments of Mortgage referred to in clause (iii)
of the definition of "Mortgage File", any of the assignments of Assignment of
Leases referred to in clause (v) of the definition of "Mortgage File", or any of
the assignments of Security Agreement referred to in clause (vii) of the
definition of "Mortgage File" are delivered to the Trustee in blank, the Trustee
shall (without being obligated to record or file such) be responsible for
completing the related endorsement or assignment in the name of the Trustee (in
such capacity).
(d) The Mortgage Loan Seller shall, as to each Mortgage Loan, at
its own expense, promptly (and in any event within _____ days of the Closing
Date) submit or 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, as appropriate, each assignment referred to in clauses (iii) and (v)
of the definition of "Mortgage File" and each UCC-1, UCC-2 and UCC-3, if any,
referred to in clause (xi)(B) of the definition of "Mortgage File". Each such
assignment shall reflect that it should be returned by the public recording
office to the Trustee following recording, and each such UCC-1, UCC-2 and UCC-3
shall reflect that the file copy thereof should be returned to the Trustee
following filing. At such time as such assignments, UCC-1s, UCC-2s and UCC-3s
have been returned to the Trustee, the Trustee shall promptly forward a copy of
each thereof to the Master Servicer. If any such document or instrument is lost
or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect
therein, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the
preparation of a substitute therefor or cure or cause the curing of such defect,
as the case may be, and thereafter the Mortgage Loan Seller, shall, at its own
expense, submit the substitute or corrected documents or cause such to be
submitted for recording or filing, as appropriate.
(e) All documents and records in the Mortgage Loan Seller's
possession (or under its control) relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not

Loans, shall be delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Seller
to the Master Servicer, within _____ days of the Closing Date, and shall be
retained by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee in trust for the
benefit of the Certificateholders.
(f) The Mortgage Loan Seller shall, as to each Mortgage Loan

at its own expense, promptly (and in any event within ____ days of the Closing
Date) notify the related ground lessor of the transfer of such Mortgage Loan to
the Trust pursuant to this Agreement and inform such ground lessor that any
notices of default under the related Ground Lease should thereafter be forwarded
to the Trustee.

further review provided for in this Section 2.02, of, with respect to each

(ii) The Mortgage Loan Seller had full right and authority to sell,
assign and transfer such Mortgage Loan to or the Trustee.
(iii) The information pertaining to such Mortgage Loan set forth in
the Mortgage Loan Schedule was true and correct in all material respects
as of the Cut-off Date.
(iv) Such Mortgage Loan was not, as of the Cut-off Date or at any
time during the twelve-month period prior thereto, 30 days or more
delinquent in respect of any Monthly Payment of principal and/or interest
required thereunder, without giving effect to any applicable grace period.
(v) Each Mortgage securing such Mortgage Loan constitutes a valid
first lien upon the related Mortgaged Property, including, without
limitation, all buildings located thereon and all fixtures attached
thereto, subject only to (and such Mortgaged Property is free and clear of
all encumbrances and liens having priority over the lien of such Mortgage,
except for) (A) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments
not yet due and payable, (B) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record, (C) the right
of tenants (whether under ground leases, space leases or operating leases)
at the Mortgaged Property to remain following a foreclosure or similar
proceeding (provided that such tenants are performing under such leases),
(D) exceptions and exclusions specifically referred to in the lender's
title insurance policy issued or, as evidenced by a "marked-up"
commitment, to be issued in respect of such Mortgage Loan and (E) if such
Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized with any other Mortgage Loan, the
lien of the Mortgage for such other Mortgage Loan (the exceptions set
forth in the foregoing clauses (A), (B), (C), (D), and (E), collectively,
"Permitted Encumbrances"). Such Permitted Encumbrances do not materially
interfere with the security intended to be provided by the related
Mortgage(s), the current use of the related Mortgaged Property, or the
current ability of such Mortgaged Property to generate net operating
income sufficient to service the Mortgage Loan.
(vi) The lien of each related Mortgage is insured by an ALTA
lender's title insurance policy, or its equivalent as adopted in the
applicable jurisdiction, issued by a nationally recognized title insurance
company, insuring the originator of the related Mortgage Loan, its
successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in
the original principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan after all
advances of principal, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (or, if a
title insurance policy has not yet been issued in respect of any Mortgage
Loan, a policy meeting the foregoing description is evidenced by a
commitment for title insurance "marked-up" at the closing of such loan).
(vii) The Mortgage Loan Seller has not waived any material default,
breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related
Mortgage or Mortgage Note.
(viii) There is no valid offset, defense or counterclaim to such
Mortgage Loan.
(ix) The Mortgage Loan Seller has not received actual notice (A)
that there is any proceeding pending or threatened for the total or
partial condemnation of the related Mortgaged Property or (B) that there
is any material damage at the related Mortgaged Property that materially
and adversely affects the value of such Mortgaged Property.
(x) At origination, such Mortgage Loan complied in all material
respects with all requirements of federal, state and local laws,
including, without limitation, laws pertaining to usury, relating to the
origination of such Mortgage Loan.
(xi) The proceeds of such Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed,
and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder.
(xii) The Mortgage Note and Mortgage(s) for such Mortgage Loan and
all other documents and instruments evidencing, guaranteeing, insuring or
otherwise securing such Mortgage Loan are each 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 legislation), enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium or other laws
relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(xiii) The related Mortgaged Property is: (A) if a commercial
property, insured by a fire and extended perils insurance policy, issued
by an insurer meeting the requirements of such Mortgage Loan in an amount
not less than the greater of (1) the replacement cost and (2) the amount
necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with
respect to such Mortgaged Property, and is also covered (except if such
Mortgaged Property is operated as a mobile home park), by rental insurance
in an amount equal to the gross rentals for at least a 12-month period
(or, in the case of a Mortgaged Property not having an elevator, for at
least a 6-month period) and broad form boiler and machinery insurance; no
such insurance policy provides that it may be canceled, endorsed, altered
or reissued to effect a change in coverage unless such insurer shall have
first given the mortgagee under such Mortgage Loan thirty days prior
written notice, and no notice has been received as of the date hereof; all
premiums required to be paid on such policy have been paid; the related
Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at
the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee under such
Mortgage Loan to purchase such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and
expense and to seek reimbursement from such Mortgagor; and (B) if a
multifamily property, insured by a fire and extended perils insurance
policy, issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of such Mortgage
Loan and covering rent loss and such other hazards, casualties,
liabilities and contingencies the Master Servicer shall require and in
such amounts and for such periods as the Master Servicer shall require; at
least thirty days prior to the expiration date of such policy, the related
Mortgage requires the Mortgagor to deliver to the mortgagee under such
Mortgage Loan a renewal policy in form satisfactory to the Master
Servicer; all premiums required to be paid on such policy have been paid;
the Mortgage obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such
insurance and, upon such Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the
mortgagee to purchase such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense
and to seek reimbursement from such Mortgagor. In addition, if the related
Mortgaged Property is located in a federally designated special flood
hazard area, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain flood insurance
in respect thereof (exclusive of any parking lot or unused or undeveloped
portion thereof).
(xiv) In connection with or subsequent to the origination of such
Mortgage Loan, one or more environmental site assessments (or an update of
a previously conducted assessment) were performed with respect to the
related Mortgaged Property, and the Mortgage Loan Seller, having made no
independent inquiry other than reviewing the resulting report(s) and/or
employing an environmental consultant to perform the assessment(s)
referenced herein, has no knowledge of any material and adverse
environmental condition or circumstance affecting such Mortgaged Property
that was not disclosed in the related report(s).
(xv) Except as indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, such
Mortgage Loan is not cross-collateralized with other Mortgage Loans in the
Mortgage Pool. Such Mortgage Loan is not cross-collateralized with a
mortgage loan outside the Mortgage Pool.
(xvi) Except as indicated on Schedule III hereto or as contained in
the related Mortgage File, the terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage(s)
for such Mortgage Loan have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified
in any material respect.
(xvii) There are no delinquent taxes, ground rents, insurance
premiums, assessments, including, without limitation, assessments payable
in future installments, or other similar outstanding charges (and, to the
actual knowledge of the Mortgage Loan Seller, at origination of such
Mortgage Loan, there were no delinquent water charges or sewer rents)
affecting the related Mortgaged Property.
(xviii) The interest of the Mortgagor in the related Mortgaged
Property consists of a fee simple and/or leasehold interest in real
property.
(xix) Such Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation
interest.
(xx) The assignment of the related Mortgage to the Trustee
constitutes the legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage from
the relevant assignor to the Trustee, and the assignment of the related
Assignment of Leases, if any, or of any other agreement executed in
connection with such Mortgage Loan to the Trustee constitutes the legal,
valid and binding assignment thereof from the relevant assignor to the
Trustee.
(xxi) All escrow deposits (including capital improvements and
environmental remediation reserves) relating to such Mortgage Loan that
were required to be delivered to the mortgagee under the terms of the
related 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 the Mortgage Loan Seller or its agents (which shall
include the Master Servicer).
(xxii) As of the date of origination of such Mortgage Loan and as of
the Closing Date, the related Mortgaged Property was and is free and clear
of any mechanics' and materialmen's liens or liens in the nature thereof
which create a lien prior to that created by the related Mortgage(s).
(xxiii) No improvement that was included for the purpose of
determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the
time of origination of such Mortgage Loan lies outside the boundaries and
building restriction lines of such property to any material extent, and no
improvements on adjoining properties materially encroach upon such
Mortgaged Property to any material extent, and no improvement located on
or forming part of such Mortgaged Property is in material violation of any
applicable zoning laws or ordinances (except to the extent that they may
constitute legal non-conforming uses).
(xxiv) To the extent required under applicable law as of the Closing
Date and necessary for the enforceability or collectability of the
Mortgage Loan, the originator of such Mortgage Loan was authorized to do
business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is
located at all times when it held the Mortgage Loan.
(xxv) There is no material default, breach or event of acceleration
existing under the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note, and the Mortgage
Loan Seller has not received actual notice of any event (other than
payments due but not yet delinquent) that, with the passage of time or
with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would
constitute such a material default, breach or event of acceleration;
provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover
any default, breach or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to
any matter otherwise covered by any other representation and warranty made
by the Mortgage Loan Seller in any of paragraphs (iv), (xiv), (xvii),
(xxi), (xxiii) and (xxix) of this Section 2.05(c).
(xxvi) If such Mortgage Loan is secured in whole or in part by the
interest of a Mortgagor under a Ground Lease and by the related fee
interest, such fee interest is subordinate to the related Mortgage and the
related Mortgage does not by its terms provide that it will be
subordinated to the lien of any mortgage or any other lien upon such fee
interest.
(xxvii) Such Mortgage Loan does not contain any equity participation
by the lender, provide for any contingent or additional interest in the
form of participation in the cash flow of the related Mortgaged Property
or provide for the negative amortization of interest, except that, as
identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, such Mortgage Loan may provide
that during the period commencing on a specified date and continuing until
such Mortgage Loan is paid in full, additional interest will accrue (and
may be compounded) on such Mortgage Loan and shall be payable only after
the outstanding principal of the Mortgage Loan is paid in full.
(xxviii) No holder of such Mortgage Loan has, to the Mortgage Loan
Seller's knowledge, advanced funds or induced, solicited or knowingly
received any advance of funds from a party other than the owner of the
related Mortgaged Property, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any
amount required by the Mortgage Loan.
(xxix) To the Mortgage Loan Seller's knowledge, based on due
diligence customarily performed in the origination of comparable mortgage
loans, as of the date of origination of such Mortgage Loan, (A) the
related Mortgagor was in possession of all material licenses, permits and
authorizations required by applicable laws for the ownership and operation
of the related Mortgaged Property as it was then operated and (B) all such
licenses, permits and authorizations were valid and in full force and
effect.
(xxx) The related Mortgage(s) or Mortgage Note, together with
applicable state law, contains customary and enforceable provisions
(subject to the exceptions set forth in clauses (c)(v) and (c)(xii) above)
such as to render the rights and remedies of the holders thereof adequate
for the practical realization against the related Mortgaged Property of
the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby.
(xxxi) Such Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage" within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.
(xxxii) If such Mortgage Loan is secured by a mortgage lien on the
applicable Mortgagor's leasehold interest in the related Mortgaged
Property, but not a mortgage lien on the related fee interest, then either
(A) the related ground lessor has subordinated its interest in the related
Mortgaged Property to the interest of the holder of the Mortgage Loan or
(B) the related ground lessor has granted the holder of the Mortgage Loan
the right to cure any default or breach by the lessee. Upon the
foreclosure of such Mortgage Loan (or acceptance of a deed in lieu
thereof), the related Ground Lease is assignable to the mortgagee under
the leasehold estate and its assigns without the consent of the ground
lessor thereunder.
(xxxiii) No fraud with respect to such Mortgage Loan has taken place
on the part of the Mortgage Loan Seller in connection with the origination
of such Mortgage Loan.
(xxxiv) The terms of such Mortgage Loan provide or, at lender's
option, permit, and the terms of this Agreement and any Sub-Servicing
Agreement to which such Mortgage Loan is subject provide for purposes of
calculating distributions on the Certificates and additional compensation
payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and any related
Sub-Servicer, that payments on and proceeds of such Mortgage Loan will be
applied to principal and interest at the related Mortgage Rate (excluding,
in the case of a Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated Repayment
Date, Additional Interest) due and owing at the time such payments or
proceeds are received, prior to being applied to any Default Charges,
assumption fees and modification fees then due and owing.
(xxxv) If such Mortgage Loan is, as of the Closing Date, subject to
a Sub-Servicing Agreement, such Sub-Servicing Agreement provides that the
related Sub-Servicer is not to receive any sub-servicing compensation with
respect to such Mortgage Loan during any period that such Mortgage Loan is
a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or an REO Loan (except for any
Termination Strip payable to a Sub-Servicer in connection with a
termination thereof without cause as contemplated by Section 3.22(d)
hereof).
(xxxvi) The servicing and collection practices used with respect to
such Mortgage Loan have been in all material respects legal and prudent
and have met customary standards utilized by prudent institutional
multifamily and commercial mortgage loan servicers.
(xxxvii) Unless the related Mortgaged Property is owner occupied,
the Mortgage File for such Mortgage Loan contains an Assignment of Leases
either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage,
which creates, in favor of the holder, a valid, perfected and enforceable
lien of the same priority as the related Mortgage, in the property and
rights described therein; provided that the enforceability of such lien is
subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally,
and by the application of the rules of equity. The Mortgage Loan Seller
has the full right to assign to the Trustee such Assignment of Leases and
the lien created thereby as described in the immediately preceding
sentence. No Person other than the Mortgagor owns any interest in any
payments due under the related leases.
(xxxviii) If the related Mortgaged Property securing such Mortgage
Loan is encumbered by secured subordinated debt, then either (A) the
subordinate debt constitutes a "cash flow" mortgage loan (that is,
payments are required to be made thereon only to the extent that certain
net cash flow from the related Mortgaged Property (calculated in
accordance with the related loan documents) is sufficient after payments
on such Mortgage Loan have been made and certain expenses have been paid)
or (B) the holder of the subordinate debt has agreed not to foreclose on
the related Mortgaged Property so long as such Mortgage Loan is
outstanding and the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust is not
pursuing a foreclosure action.
(xxxix) If such Mortgage Loan is secured by a mortgage lien on the
applicable Mortgagor's leasehold interest under a Ground Lease, such
Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more
optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised,
and will be enforceable, by the mortgagee if it takes possession of such
leasehold interest) that extends not less than 10 years beyond the stated
maturity of the related Mortgage Loan.
(xl) In the event fraud was committed by the Mortgagor in connection
with the origination thereof, such Mortgage Loan becomes a recourse
obligation of the Mortgagor.
(xli) If such Mortgage Loan is a Hyper-Amortization Loan, it
commenced amortizing on its initial scheduled Due Date and provides that:
(i) its Mortgage Rate will increase by no more than two percentage points
in connection with the passage of its Anticipated Repayment Date; (ii) its
Anticipated Repayment Date is not less than seven years following the
origination of such Mortgage Loan; (iii) any cash flow from the related
Mortgaged Property that is applied to amortize such Mortgage Loan
following its Anticipated Repayment Date shall, to the extent such net
cash flow is in excess of the Monthly Payment payable therefrom, be net of
budgeted and discretionary (servicer approved) capital expenditures; and
(iv) if the property manager for the related Mortgaged Property can be
removed by or at the direction of the lender on the basis of a debt
service coverage test, the subject debt service coverage ratio shall be
calculated without taking account of any increase in the related Mortgage
Rate on such Mortgage Loan's Anticipated Repayment Date. No
Hyper-Amortization Loan provides that the property manager for the related
Mortgaged Property can be removed by or at the direction of the lender
solely because of the passage of the related Anticipated Repayment Date.
(xlii) At origination of such Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgagor
was not, to the best of the Mortgage Loan Seller's actual knowledge, a
debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.
(xliii) If such Mortgage Loan is secured by the interest of the
related Mortgagor under a Ground Lease, then, as of the origination of
such Mortgage Loan, such Ground Lease was in full force and effect and, to
the Mortgage Loan Seller's actual knowledge, no material default existed
under such Ground Lease.
(xliv) The Mortgage Loan Seller has no actual knowledge of any
pending litigation or other legal proceedings involving the related
Mortgagor or the related Mortgaged Property that can reasonably be
expected to materially interfere with the security intended to be provided
by the related Mortgage, the current use of the related Mortgaged
Property, or the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net
operating income sufficient to service the Mortgage Loan.
(xlv) If such Mortgage Loan had a Cut-off Date Balance greater than
1% of the Initial Pool Balance, the related Mortgagor has covenanted in
its organizational documents and/or the Mortgage Loan documents to own no
significant asset other than the related Mortgaged Property, Mortgaged
Properties securing other Mortgage Loans and assets incidental to its
ownership and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties.
(xlvi) Except as identified on Schedule IV hereto, neither the
related Mortgage Note nor the related 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 payment in full of all
amounts due under the related Mortgage Loan.
(xlvii) Except as identified on Schedule V hereto, such Mortgage
Loan does not permit the related Mortgaged Property to be encumbered
subsequent to the Closing Date by any lien junior to or of equal priority
with the lien of the related Mortgage without the prior written consent of
the holder thereof.
(c) It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in this Section 2.05 shall survive delivery of the
respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee or a Custodian on its behalf and shall
inure to the benefit of the Persons for whose benefit they were made for so long
as the Trust remains in existence, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified
endorsement or assignment. Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a
breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in subsection (a)
above which materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders or any party hereto or a breach of any of the representations
and warranties set forth in subsection (b) above which materially and adversely
affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests therein of the
Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to each of the other parties hereto.

(a) The Master Servicer hereby represents and warrants to the other
parties hereto and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, as of the Closing

as Trustee [and in its capacity as REMIC Administrator] (the "Bank"), hereby
represents and warrants to the other parties hereto and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, as of the Closing Date, that:

to accurately reflect such successor's jurisdiction of organization and whether

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF THE TRUST FUND
SECTION 3.01 Administration of the Mortgage Loans.
(a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall
service and administer the Mortgage Loans that it is obligated to service and
administer pursuant to this Agreement on behalf of the Trustee, and in the best
interests and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, in accordance with any
and all applicable laws and the terms of this Agreement, the Insurance Policies
and the respective Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent with the
foregoing, in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Without limiting the
foregoing, and subject to Section 3.21, (i) the Master Servicer shall service
and administer all Mortgage Loans as to which no Servicing Transfer Event has
occurred and all Corrected Mortgage Loans, and (ii) the Special Servicer shall
service and administer (x) each Mortgage Loan (other than a Corrected Mortgage
Loan) as to which a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred, and (y) each REO
Property; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall continue to collect
information and prepare all reports to the Trustee required hereunder with
respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties (and the
related REO Loans), and further to render such incidental services with respect
to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties as are specifically
provided for herein.
(b) Subject to Section 3.01(a), the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer each shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do
or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and
administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, each of the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer, in its own name, with respect to each of the Mortgage Loans it is
obligated to service hereunder, is hereby authorized and empowered by the
Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the
Trustee or any of them: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation
statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien
created by any Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File
on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral; (ii) in accordance
with the Servicing Standard and subject to Sections 3.08 and 3.20, any and all
modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to any
documents contained in the related Mortgage File; and (iii) any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or
discharge, and all other comparable instruments. Subject to Section 3.10, the
Trustee shall, at the written request of a Servicing Officer of the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, furnish, or cause to be so furnished, to the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, any limited powers
of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable them to carry
out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that
the Trustee shall not be held liable for any misuse of any such power of
attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.
(c) The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and Special
Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be
that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or
agent.
(d) In the event that any two or more Mortgage Loans are
cross-collateralized with each other, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer,
as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall service and
administer such Mortgage Loans as a single Mortgage Loan as and when it deems
necessary and appropriate, consistent with the Servicing Standard. If any
Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan,
then each other Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized with it shall also
become a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. Similarly, no Cross-Collateralized
Mortgage Loan shall subsequently become a Corrected Mortgage Loan, unless and
until all Servicing Transfer Events in respect of each other Mortgage Loan that
is cross-collateralized with it, are remediated or otherwise addressed as
contemplated in the definition of "Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan".
SECTION 3.02 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.
Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall make
reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and
provisions of the Mortgage Loans it is obligated to service hereunder, and
shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement
(including without limitation, the Servicing Standard), follow such collection
procedures as it would follow were it the owner of such Mortgage Loans;
provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as an
express or implied guarantee by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of
the collectability of the Mortgage Loans; and, provided, further, that neither
the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, with respect to any
Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date, take any
enforcement action with respect to the payment of Additional Interest (other
than the making of requests for its collection), unless (i) the taking of an
enforcement action with respect to the payment of other amounts due under such
Mortgage Loan is, in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Special
Servicer, and without regard to such Additional Interest, also necessary,
appropriate and consistent with the Servicing Standard or (ii) all other amounts
due under such Mortgage Loan have been paid, the payment of such Additional
Interest has not been forgiven in accordance with Section 3.20 and, in the good
faith and reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, the Liquidation Proceeds
expected to be recovered in connection with such enforcement action will cover
the anticipated costs of such enforcement action and, if applicable, any
associated Advance Interest. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer each may waive any Default Charges in connection with
any specific delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan it is obligated to service
hereunder.
_________ (_____) days prior to the maturity date of each Balloon
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall send a notice to the related Mortgagor
of such maturity date (with a copy to be sent to the Special Servicer) and shall
request confirmation that the Balloon Payment will be paid by such date.
SECTION 3.03 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar
Items; Servicing Accounts; Reserve Accounts.
(a) The Master Servicer shall, as to all the Mortgage Loans,
establish and maintain one or more accounts (the "Servicing Accounts"), into
which all Escrow Payments shall be deposited and retained. Subject to any terms
of the related Mortgage Loan documents that specify the nature of the account in
which Escrow Payments shall be held, each Servicing Account shall be an Eligible
Account. Withdrawals of amounts so collected in respect of any Mortgage Loan
(and interest earned thereon) from a Servicing Account may be made only: (i) to
effect payment of real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, [ground
(if applicable)] and comparable items in respect of the related Mortgaged
Property; (ii) to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances made thereby to
cover any of the items described in the immediately preceding clause (i); (iii)
to refund to the related Mortgagor any sums as may be determined to be overages;
(iv) to pay interest, if required and as described below, to the related
Mortgagor on balances in the Servicing Account (or, if and to the extent not
payable to the related Mortgagor, to pay such interest to the Master Servicer);
or (v) to clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this
Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. The Master Servicer shall pay or
cause to be paid to the Mortgagors interest, if any, earned on the investment of
funds in Servicing Accounts maintained thereby, if required by law or the terms
of the related Mortgage Loan. If the Master Servicer shall deposit in a
Servicing Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any
time withdraw such amount from such Servicing Account, any provision herein to
the contrary notwithstanding. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver all
Escrow Payments received by it to the Master Servicer for deposit in the
applicable Servicing Account.
(b) The Master Servicer shall (with the cooperation of the Special
Servicer in the case of Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans), (i) maintain
accurate records with respect to each Mortgaged Property reflecting the status
of real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become
a lien thereon and the status of insurance premiums [and any ground rents]
payable in respect thereof and (ii) use reasonable efforts to obtain, from time
to time, all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums)
and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination
date. For purposes of effecting any such payment, the Master Servicer shall
apply Escrow Payments as allowed under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan
or, if such Mortgage Loan does not require the related Mortgagor to escrow for
the payment of real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, [ground rents
(if applicable)] and similar items, each of the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer shall, as to those Mortgage Loans it is obligated to service hereunder
and subject to the Servicing Standard, enforce the requirement of the related
Mortgage that the Mortgagor make payments in respect of such items at the time
they first become due.
(c) In accordance with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer
shall, as to all the Mortgage Loans (but at the direction of the Special
Servicer in the case of Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans), advance with respect
to the related Mortgaged Property all such funds as are necessary for the
purpose of effecting the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and other
similar items, (ii) ground rents or other rents (if applicable), and (iii)
premiums on Insurance Policies, in each instance if and to the extent Escrow
Payments (if any) collected from the related Mortgagor are insufficient to pay
such item when due and the related Mortgagor has failed to pay such item on a
timely basis, and provided that the particular advance would not, if made,
constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. All such advances shall be
reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors
and further as provided in Section 3.05(a). No costs incurred by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer in effecting the payment of real estate taxes,
assessments and similar items and, [if applicable, ground rents] on or in
respect of such Mortgaged Properties shall, for purposes hereof, including,
without limitation, calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be
added to the unpaid principal balances of the related Mortgage Loans,
notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.
(d) The Master Servicer shall, as to all the Mortgage Loans,
establish and maintain, as applicable, one or more accounts (the "Reserve
Accounts"), into which all Reserve Funds, if any, shall be deposited and
retained. Withdrawals of amounts so deposited may be made to pay for or
otherwise cover, or (if appropriate) to reimburse the related Mortgagor in
connection with, the specific items for which such Reserve Funds were escrowed,
all in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms of the related
Mortgage Note, Mortgage and any agreement with the related Mortgagor governing
such Reserve Funds. Subject to the terms of the related Mortgage Note and
Mortgage, all Reserve Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Special Servicer
shall promptly deliver all Reserve Funds received by it to the Master Servicer
for deposit in the applicable Reserve Account.
SECTION 3.04 Certificate Account and Distribution Account.
(a) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more
accounts (collectively, the "Certificate Account"), held on behalf of the
Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Certificate
Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer shall deposit or cause
to be deposited in the Certificate Account, within two Business Days of receipt
(in the case of payments by Mortgagors or other collections on or in respect of
the Mortgage Loans) or as otherwise required hereunder, the following payments
and collections received or made by or on behalf of it subsequent to the Cut-off
Date (other than in respect of principal, interest and any other amounts due and
payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date, which payments
shall be delivered promptly to the Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee, with
negotiable instruments endorsed as necessary and appropriate without recourse):
(i) all payments on account of principal, including Principal
Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;
(ii) all payments on account of interest at the respective Mortgage
Rates on the Mortgage Loans and all Prepayment Premiums received in
respect of the Mortgage Loans;
(iii) to the extent allocable to the period that any Mortgage Loan
is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, all payments on account of Default
Charges on such Mortgage Loan;
(iv) all Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds (net of all
related Liquidation Expenses paid therefrom) received in respect of any
Mortgage Loan (other than Liquidation Proceeds that are received in
connection with a purchase by the Master Servicer or a Majority
Certificateholder of the Controlling Class of all of the Mortgage Loans
and any REO Properties in the Trust Fund and that are required to be
deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 9.01);
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.06 in connection with losses incurred with respect
to Permitted Investments of funds held in the Certificate Account;
(vi) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07(b) in connection with losses
resulting from a deductible clause in a blanket or master single interest
policy;
(vii) any amounts required to be transferred from the REO Account
pursuant to Section 3.16(c); and
(viii) any amounts representing payments made by Mortgagors that are
allocable to cover items in respect of which Servicing Advances have been
made.
The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Certificate Account
shall be exclusive. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (A) actual
payments from Mortgagors in the nature of Escrow Payments, and amounts that the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to retain as additional
servicing compensation pursuant to Section 3.11(b) and Section 3.11(d),
respectively, need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Certificate
Account and (B) with respect to any amount representing a sub-servicing fee
(including, without limitation, a Primary Servicing Fee, if applicable) that
otherwise would be required to be deposited by the Master Servicer in the
Certificate Account and that, once so deposited, would have been permitted to be
withdrawn immediately from the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.05 as
part of the payment of the Master Servicing Fee, such amount shall be deemed to
have been deposited to and withdrawn from the Certificate Account for such
purpose to the extent that such sum has been retained by the Sub-Servicer
pursuant to the related Sub-Servicing Agreement. If the Master Servicer shall
deposit in the Certificate Account any amount not required to be deposited
therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Certificate Account,
any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Master Servicer shall
promptly deliver to the Special Servicer, as additional special servicing
compensation in accordance with Section 3.11(d), assumption fees, modification
fees, Net Default Charges, charges for beneficiary statements or demands,
charges for checks returned for insufficient funds and similar fees (excluding
Prepayment Premiums) received by the Master Servicer with respect to Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loans. The Certificate Account shall be maintained as a
segregated account, separate and apart from trust funds created for mortgage
pass-through certificates of other series serviced and the other accounts of the
Master Servicer.
Upon receipt of any of the amounts described in clauses (i) through (iv)
above with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall promptly,
but in no event later than two Business Days after receipt, remit such amounts
to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Certificate Account in accordance
with the second preceding paragraph, unless the Special Servicer determines,
consistent with the Servicing Standard, that a particular item should not be
deposited because of a restrictive endorsement or other appropriate reason. Any
such amounts received by the Special Servicer with respect to an REO Property
shall be deposited by the Special Servicer into the REO Account and remitted to
the Master Servicer for deposit into the Certificate Account pursuant to Section
3.16(c). With respect to any such amounts paid by check to the order of the
Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall endorse such check to the order of
the Master Servicer and shall deliver promptly, but in no event later than two
Business Days after receipt, any such check to the Master Servicer by overnight
courier, unless the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing
Standard, that a particular item cannot be so endorsed and delivered because of
a restrictive endorsement or other appropriate reason.
(b) The Trustee shall establish and maintain one or more trust
accounts (collectively, the "Distribution Account") to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Certificateholders. The Distribution Account shall be an Eligible
Account. On each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall
deliver to the Trustee, for deposit in the Distribution Account, an aggregate
amount of immediately available funds equal to the Master Servicer Remittance
Amount for such Master Servicer Remittance Date. If, at 1:00 p.m., New York City
time, on any Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Trustee has not received the
Master Servicer Remittance Amount, the Trustee shall provide notice to the
Master Servicer in the same manner as required by Section 4.03(a) hereof with
respect to P&I Advances.
In addition, the Master Servicer shall, as and when required hereunder,
deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account:

accordance with Section 4.03(a);
(ii) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.19(e) in connection with Prepayment Interest
Shortfalls; and

Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class in connection with the
purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties pursuant to
Section 9.01, exclusive of the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds
required to be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section
9.01.
The Trustee shall, upon receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account any
and all amounts received or advanced by the Trustee that are required by the
terms of this Agreement to be deposited therein.
(c) Funds in the Certificate Account may be invested in Permitted
Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06. The Master
Servicer shall give notice to the other parties hereto of the location of the
Certificate Account as of the Closing Date and of the new location of the
Certificate Account prior to any change thereof. The Trustee shall give notice
to the other parties hereto of the location of the Distribution Account as of
the Closing Date and of the new location of the Distribution Account prior to
any change thereof.

failed to timely make the required payment, and (B) reimburse the REMIC
Administrator for reasonable expenses incurred by and reimbursable to it
by the Trust pursuant to Section 10.01(d) and/or Section 10.01(g); and
(vii) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account at the
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
SECTION 3.06 Investment of Funds in the Certificate
Account and the REO Account.
(a) The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution
maintaining the Certificate Account, and the Special Servicer may direct any
depository institution maintaining the REO Account, to invest, or if it is such
depository institution, may itself invest, the funds held therein (each such
account, for purposes of this Section 3.06, an "Investment Account") in one or
more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing,
unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day immediately preceding
the next succeeding date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from
such account pursuant to this Agreement. All such Permitted Investments shall be
held to maturity, unless payable on demand, in which case such investments may
be sold at any time. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be
made in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders (in
its capacity as such). The Master Servicer (with respect to Permitted
Investments of amounts in the Certificate Account) and the Special Servicer
(with respect to Permitted Investments of amounts in the REO Account), on behalf
of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall (and the Trustee
hereby designates the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable,
as the Person that shall) maintain continuous possession of any Permitted
Investment that is either (i) a "certificated security", as such term is defined
in the UCC, or (ii) other property in which a secured party may perfect its
security interest by possession under the UCC or any other applicable law.
Possession of any such Permitted Investment by the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer shall constitute possession by a person designated by the
Trustee for purposes of Section 8-313 of the UCC and possession by the Trustee,
as secured party, for purposes of Section 9-305 of the UCC and any other
applicable law. If amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time
invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Master Servicer (in
the case of the Certificate Account) or the Special Servicer (in the case of the
REO Account) shall:
(x) consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder,
demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted
Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser
of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to
be withdrawn on such date; and
(y) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon
determination by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case
may be, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted
Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment
Account.
(b) Whether or not the Master Servicer directs the investment of
funds in the Certificate Account, interest and investment income realized on
funds deposited therein, to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any,
for such Investment Account for each Collection Period, shall be for the sole
and exclusive benefit of the Master Servicer and shall be subject to its
withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.05(a). Whether or not the Special
Servicer directs the investment of funds in the REO Account, interest and
investment income realized on funds deposited therein, to the extent of the Net
Investment Earnings, if any, for such Investment Account for each Collection
Period, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Special Servicer and
shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.16(b). If any
loss shall be incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment on deposit in any
Investment Account, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Certificate Account)
and the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account) shall promptly deposit
therein from its own funds, without right of reimbursement, no later than the
end of the Collection Period during which such loss was incurred, the amount of
the Net Investment Loss, if any, for such Collection Period. The Trustee shall
have no liability whatsoever with respect to any such losses, except to the
extent that it is the obligor on any such Permitted Investment.
(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any
default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or
if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted
Investment and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has
not taken such action, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 8.02, upon the
request of Holders of Certificates entitled to not less than 25% of the Voting
Rights allocated to any Class, shall take such action as may be appropriate to
enforce such payment or performance, including, without limitation, the
institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
(d) Notwithstanding the investment of funds held in any Investment
Account, for purposes of the calculations hereunder, including, without
limitation, the calculation of the Available Distribution Amount and the Master
Servicer Remittance Amount, the amounts so invested (but not any interest earned
thereon) shall be deemed to remain on deposit in such Investment Account.
SECTION 3.07 Maintenance of Insurance Policies; Errors
and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage.
(a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, as
to those Mortgage Loans it is obligated to service hereunder, use its best
efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor
to maintain (and, if the related Mortgagor does not so maintain, the Master
Servicer (even in the case of Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) shall itself
maintain (subject to the provisions of this Agreement regarding Nonrecoverable
Advances, and further subject to Section 3.11(h) hereof), to the extent the
Trustee, as mortgagee on behalf of the Certificateholders, has an insurable
interest and to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates) all
insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage (subject to
applicable law); provided that if any Mortgage permits the holder thereof to
dictate to the Mortgagor the insurance coverage to be maintained on such
Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as appropriate,
shall impose such insurance requirements as are consistent with the Servicing
Standard. The Special Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each REO
Property, in each case with an insurer that possesses the Required Claims-Paying
Ratings at the time such policy is purchased, no less insurance coverage than
was previously required of the related Mortgagor under the related Mortgage and,
if the related Mortgage did not so require, hazard insurance, public liability
insurance and business interruption or rent loss insurance in such amounts as
are consistent with the Servicing Standard, and the Special Servicer shall be
reimbursed for the premium costs thereof as a Servicing Advance pursuant to and
to the extent permitted under Section 3.05(a). All such insurance policies shall
contain a "standard" mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Master Servicer
(in the case of insurance maintained in respect of the Mortgaged Properties) or
the Special Servicer (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO
Properties) on behalf of the Trustee, shall be issued by an insurer authorized
under applicable law to issue such insurance, and, unless prohibited by the
related Mortgage, may contain a deductible clause (not in excess of a customary
amount). Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer under
any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair
of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property or amounts to be released to
the related Mortgagor, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard)
shall be deposited in the Certificate Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to
Section 3.05(a), in the case of amounts received in respect of a Mortgage Loan,
or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.16(c), in the
case of amounts received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost incurred by the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in maintaining any such
insurance shall not, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation,
calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid
principal balance or Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan,
notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.
(b) (i) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain
and maintain a blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on any or all
of the Mortgaged Properties (in the case of the Master Servicer) or REO
Properties (in the case of the Special Servicer), then, to the extent such
policy (i) is obtained from a Qualified Insurer that possesses the
Required Claims-Paying Ratings, and (ii) provides protection equivalent to
the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall conclusively be deemed to have
satisfied its obligation to cause hazard insurance to be maintained on the
Mortgaged Properties or REO Properties, as applicable, so covered, and the
premium costs thereof shall be, if and to the extent they are specifically
attributable either to a specific Mortgaged Property during any period
that the related Mortgagor has failed to maintain the hazard insurance
required under the related Mortgage Loan in respect of such Mortgaged
Property or to a specific REO Property, a Servicing Advance reimbursable
pursuant to and to the extent permitted under Section 3.05(a); provided
that, to the extent that such premium costs are attributable to properties
other than Mortgaged Properties and/or REO Properties or are attributable
to Mortgaged Properties as to which the hazard insurance required under
the related Mortgage Loan is being maintained, they shall be borne by the
Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, without right of
reimbursement. Such a blanket policy may contain a deductible clause (not
in excess of a customary amount), in which case the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as appropriate, shall, if there shall not have been
maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property, as
applicable, a hazard insurance policy complying with the requirements of
Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would
have been covered by such property specific policy (taking into account
any deductible clause that would have been permitted therein), promptly
deposit into the Certificate Account from its own funds (without right of
reimbursement) the amount of such losses up to the difference between the
amount of the deductible clause in such blanket policy and the amount of
any deductible clause that would have been permitted under such property
specific policy. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each agree
to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy maintained by it
in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.
(ii) If the Master Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or
the Special Servicer shall cause any REO Property to be covered by a
master single interest insurance policy naming the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trustee as the loss
payee, then to the extent such policy (i) is obtained from a Qualified
Insurer that possesses the Required Claims-Paying Ratings and (ii)
provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise
required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,
shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause
such insurance to be maintained on such Mortgaged Property (in the case of
the Master Servicer) or REO Property (in the case of the Special
Servicer). If the Master Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property as to
which the related Mortgagor has failed to maintain the required insurance
coverage, or the Special Servicer shall cause any REO Property, to be
covered by such master single interest insurance policy, then the
incremental costs of such insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property
or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable
for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is
covered thereby) paid by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
applicable, shall constitute a Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer
shall, consistent with the Servicing Standard and the terms of the related
Mortgage Loan documents, pursue the related Mortgagor for the amount of
such incremental costs. All other costs associated with any such master
single interest insurance policy (including, without limitation, any
minimum or standby premium payable for such policy) shall be borne by the
Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, without right of
reimbursement. Such master single interest insurance policy may contain a
deductible clause (not in excess of a customary amount), in which case the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, in the
event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged
Property or REO Property, as the case may be, a policy otherwise complying
with the provisions of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or
more losses which would have been covered by such property specific policy
had it been maintained, promptly deposit into the Certificate Account from
its own funds (without right of reimbursement) the amount not otherwise
payable under the master single interest policy because of such deductible
clause, to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible
limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan, or, in the absence
of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is
consistent with the Servicing Standard.
(c) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall at
all times during the term of this Agreement keep in force with recognized
insurers that possess the Required Claims-Paying Ratings a fidelity bond in such
form and amount as would permit it to be a qualified Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac
seller-servicer of multifamily mortgage loans. Each of the Master Servicer and
the Special Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with the foregoing
provision if an Affiliate thereof has such fidelity bond coverage and, by the
terms of such fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. Such fidelity bond
shall provide that it may not be canceled without 30 days' prior written notice
to the Trustee.
In addition, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall at
all times during the term of this Agreement keep in force with recognized
insurers that possess the Required Claims-Paying Ratings a policy or policies of
insurance covering loss occasioned by the errors and omissions of its officers
and employees in connection with its obligation to service the Mortgage Loans
for which it is responsible hereunder, which policy or policies shall be in such
form and amount as would permit it to be a qualified Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac
seller-servicer of multifamily mortgage loans. Any such errors and omissions
policy, if required, shall provide that it may not be canceled without 30 days'
prior written notice to the Trustee.
It is understood and agreed that the Rating Agencies have affirmed in
writing that the use of certain specified insurance carriers by the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer and/or Sub-Servicers will not, in and of itself,
cause a downgrade, qualification or change in the rating assigned to any Class
of Certificates, notwithstanding that such insurance carriers do not possess the
Required Claims-Paying Ratings as of the Closing Date. It is further understood
and agreed that if the claims-paying ratings of any such insurance carrier are
downgraded below the level assigned as of the Closing Date, such insurance
carrier promptly shall be replaced by a Qualified Insurer that possesses the
Required Claims-Paying Ratings.
(d) All insurance coverage required to be maintained under this
Section 3.07 shall be obtained from Qualified Insurers.
SECTION 3.08 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses;
Assumption Agreements; Subordinate Financing.
(a) As to each Mortgage Loan which contains a provision in the
nature of a "due-on-sale" clause, which by its terms:
(i) provides that such Mortgage Loan shall (or may at the
mortgagee's option) become due and payable upon the sale or other transfer
of an interest in the related Mortgaged Property or of a controlling
interest in the related Mortgagor; or
(ii) provides that such Mortgage Loan may not be assumed without the
consent of the mortgagee in connection with any such sale or other
transfer,
then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, each of
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee as
the mortgagee of record, as to those Mortgage Loans it is obligated to service
hereunder, exercise (or waive its right to exercise) any right it may have with
respect to such Mortgage Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon, or (y) to
withhold its consent to any such sale or other transfer, in a manner consistent
with the Servicing Standard, but subject to Section 3.20(a)(iii); provided that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Master
Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall waive any right it has, or grant any
consent it is otherwise entitled to withhold, under any related "due-on-sale"
clause unless it first (1) shall have provided, at least five Business Days
prior to the granting of such waiver or consent, to any single Holder that
constitutes the Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class and, in the
case of the Master Servicer, to the Special Servicer written notice of the
matter and a written explanation of the surrounding circumstances, (2) upon
request made within such five Business Day-period, shall have discussed the
matter with any such single Holder that constitutes the Majority
Certificateholder of the Controlling Class and/or, in the case of the Master
Servicer, with the Special Servicer and (3) if the then-outstanding principal
balance of the subject Mortgage Loan (together with the then-outstanding
aggregate principal balance of all other Mortgage Loans to the same Mortgagor or
to other Mortgagors that are, to the Master Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as
applicable, actual knowledge, Affiliates of the Mortgagor under the subject
Mortgage Loan) is more than 2% of the then-outstanding aggregate principal
balance of the Mortgage Pool, shall have obtained written confirmation from each
Rating Agency that such action shall not result in a qualification, downgrade or
withdrawal of the rating then assigned by such Rating Agency to any Class of
Certificates; and provided, further, that, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer
shall waive any right it has, or grant any consent it is otherwise entitled to
withhold, under any related "due-on-sale" clause governing the transfer of any
Mortgaged Property which secures, or controlling interests in any Mortgagor
under, a Group of Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loans unless all of the
Mortgaged Properties securing, or a controlling interest in all the Mortgagors
(if more than one) under, such Group of Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loans are
transferred simultaneously to the same transferee. In the event that the Master
Servicer or Special Servicer intends or is required, in accordance with the
preceding sentence, the Mortgage Loan documents or applicable law, to permit the
transfer of any Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be, may, if consistent with the Servicing Standard, enter into a
substitution of liability agreement, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor
and any original guarantors are released from liability, and the transferee and
any new guarantors are substituted therefor and become liable under the Mortgage
Note and any related guaranties and, in connection therewith, may require from
the related Mortgagor a reasonable and customary fee for the additional services
performed by it, together with reimbursement for any related costs and expenses
incurred by it (but only to the extent that charging such fee will not be a
"significant modification" of the Mortgage Loan, or result in the receipt by
REMIC I or REMIC II of net income from a "prohibited transaction", under the
REMIC Provisions). The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any such agreement and
forward the original thereof to the Trustee for inclusion in the related
Mortgage File.
(b) As to each Mortgage Loan which contains a provision in the
nature of a "due-on-encumbrance" clause, which by its terms:
(i) provides that such Mortgage Loan shall (or may at the
mortgagee's option) become due and payable upon the creation of any
additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property; or
(ii) requires the consent of the mortgagee to the creation of any
such additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged
Property;
then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, each of
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall on behalf of the Trustee as
the mortgagee of record, as to those Mortgage Loans it is obligated to service
hereunder, exercise (or waive its right to exercise) any right it may have with
respect to such Mortgage Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon, or (y) to
withhold its consent to the creation of any such additional lien or other
encumbrance, in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard, but subject to
Section 3.20(a)(iii); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall
waive any right it has, or grant any consent it is otherwise entitled to
withhold, under any related "due-on-encumbrance" clause unless it first (1)
shall have provided, at least five Business Days prior to the granting of such
waiver or consent, to any single Holder that constitutes the Majority
Certificateholder of the Controlling Class and, in the case of the Master
Servicer, to the Special Servicer written notice of the matter and a written
explanation of the surrounding circumstances, and (2) upon request made within
such five Business Day-period, shall have discussed the matter with any such
single Holder that constitutes the Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling
Class and/or, in the case of the Master Servicer, with the Special Servicer; and
provided, further, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall waive any
right it has, or grant any consent it is otherwise entitled to withhold, under
any related "due-on-encumbrance" clause until it has received written
confirmation from each Rating Agency that such action would not result in the
qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the rating then assigned by such
Rating Agency to any Class of Certificates.
(c) Nothing in this Section 3.08 shall constitute a waiver of
the Trustee's right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any
assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related
Mortgaged Property or the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance
with respect to such Mortgaged Property.
SECTION 3.09 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Special Servicer shall, subject to subsections (b) through
(d) of this Section 3.09, exercise reasonable efforts, consistent with the
Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert (which may
include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of properties securing such of the
Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments, and
which are not released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any other provision
hereof, if the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing
Standard, that such action would be in the best economic interest of the Trust;
provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, with
respect to any Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date,
take any enforcement action with respect to the payment of Additional Interest
(other than the making of requests for its collection) unless (i) the taking of
an enforcement action with respect to the payment of other amounts due under
such Mortgage Loan is, in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Special
Servicer, and without regard to such Additional Interest, also necessary,
appropriate and consistent with the Servicing Standard or (ii) all other amounts
due under such Mortgage Loan have been paid, the payment of such Additional
Interest has not been forgiven in accordance with Section 3.20 and, in the good
faith and reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, the Liquidation Proceeds
expected to be recovered in connection with such enforcement action will cover
the anticipated costs of such enforcement action and, if applicable, any
associated Advance Interest. The Special Servicer shall advance or direct the
Master Servicer to advance, as contemplated by Section 3.19(d), all costs and
expenses to be incurred on behalf of the Trust in any such proceedings, subject
to each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer being entitled to
reimbursement for any such advance as a Servicing Advance as provided in Section
3.05(a), and further subject to the Special Servicer's being entitled to pay out
of the related Liquidation Proceeds any Liquidation Expenses incurred in respect
of any Mortgage Loan, which Liquidation Expenses were outstanding at the time
such proceeds are received. In connection with the foregoing, in the event of a
default under any Mortgage Loan or Group of Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loans
that are secured by real properties located in multiple states, and such states
include the State of California or another state with a statute, rule or
regulation comparable to the State of California's "one action" rule, then the
Special Servicer shall consult with Independent counsel regarding the order and
manner in which the Special Servicer should foreclose upon or comparably proceed
against such properties (the cost of such consultation to be advanced by the
Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance, at the direction of the Special
Servicer, subject to the Master Servicer's being entitled to reimbursement
therefor as a Servicing Advance as provided in Section 3.05(a)). When applicable
state law permits the Special Servicer to select between judicial and
non-judicial foreclosure in respect of any Mortgaged Property, the Special
Servicer shall make such selection in a manner consistent with the Servicing
Standard. Nothing contained in this Section 3.09 shall be construed so as to
require the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, to make an offer on any
Mortgaged Property at a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding that is in excess
of the fair market value of such property, as determined by the Special Servicer
in its reasonable and good faith judgment taking into account the factors
described in Section 3.18(e) and the results of any Appraisal obtained pursuant
to the following sentence or otherwise, all such offers to be made in a manner
consistent with the Servicing Standard. If and when the Special Servicer or the
Master Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for purposes of establishing the
fair market value of any Mortgaged Property securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan,
whether for purposes of making an offer at(foreclosure or otherwise, the Special
Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, is authorized to have an
Appraisal completed with respect to such property (the cost of which Appraisal
shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance, subject to its
being entitled to reimbursement therefor as a Servicing Advance as provided in
Section 3.05(a), such Advance to be made at the direction of the Special
Servicer when the Appraisal is obtained by the Special Service).
(b) The Special Servicer shall not acquire any personal property
pursuant to this Section 3.09 (with the exception of cash or cash equivalents
pledged as collateral for a Mortgage Loan) unless either:
(i) such personal property is incident to real property (within the
meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special
Servicer; or
(ii) the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel
(the reasonable cost of which may be withdrawn from the Certificate
Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)) to the effect that the holding of
such personal property by the Trust will not cause either of REMIC I or
REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is
outstanding or, subject to Section 3.17, cause the imposition of a tax on
the Trust under the REMIC Provisions.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09,
neither the Special Servicer nor the Master Servicer shall, on behalf of the
Trustee, initiate foreclosure proceedings, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property
in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, have a receiver of rents appointed with
respect to any Mortgaged Property, or take any other action with respect to any
Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, on behalf
of the Certificateholders, would be considered to hold title to, to be a
"mortgagee-in-possession" of, or to be an "owner" or "operator" of such
Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless
(as evidenced by an Officer's Certificate to such effect delivered to the
Trustee) the Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with the
Servicing Standard, based on a Phase I Environmental Assessment (and any
additional environmental testing that the Special Servicer deems necessary and
prudent) of such Mortgaged Property performed by an Independent Person who
regularly conducts Phase I Environmental Assessments and such additional
environmental testing, that:
(i) the Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable
environmental laws and regulations or, if not, that taking such actions as
are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property in compliance therewith and
proceeding against the Mortgaged Property is reasonably likely to produce
a greater recovery to Certificateholders on a present value basis (the
relevant discounting of anticipated collections that will be distributable
to Certificateholders to be performed at the related Net Mortgage Rate
(or, in the case of a Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated
Repayment Date, at the related Net Mortgage Rate immediately prior to the
Anticipated Repayment Date)), taking into consideration any associated
liabilities, than not taking such actions and not proceeding against such
Mortgaged Property; and
(ii) there are no circumstances or conditions present at the
Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of
Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring,
containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any
applicable environmental laws and/or regulations or, if such circumstances
or conditions are present for which any such action could be required,
that taking such actions with respect to such Mortgaged Property and
proceeding against the Mortgaged Property is reasonably likely to produce
a greater recovery to Certificateholders on a present value basis (the
relevant discounting of anticipated collections that will be distributable
to Certificateholders to be performed at the related Net Mortgage Rate
(or, in the in the case of a Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated
Repayment Date, at the related Net Mortgage Rate immediately prior to the
Anticipated Repayment Date)), taking into consideration any associated
liabilities, than not taking such actions and not proceeding against such
Mortgaged Property.
The cost of such Phase I Environmental Assessment and any such
additional environmental testing, as well as the cost of any remedial,
corrective or other further action contemplated by clause (i) and/or clause (ii)
of the preceding paragraph, shall be advanced by the Master Servicer at the
direction of the Special Servicer given in accordance with the Servicing
Standard; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated in
connection therewith to advance any funds which, if so advanced, would
constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Amounts so advanced shall be
subject to reimbursement as Servicing Advances in accordance with Section
3.05(a).
(d) If the environmental testing contemplated by Section 3.09(c)
above establishes that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and
(ii) of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied with respect to any
Mortgaged Property securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer
shall take such action as is in accordance with the Servicing Standard (other
than proceeding against the Mortgaged Property, but including the sale of the
affected Mortgage Loan) and, at such time as it deems appropriate, may, on
behalf of the Trustee, release all or a portion of such Mortgaged Property from
the lien of the related Mortgage; provided that prior to the release of all or a
portion of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage,
(i) the Special Servicer shall have notified the Trustee in writing of its
intention to so release all or a portion of such Mortgaged Property, (ii) the
Trustee shall have notified the Certificateholders in writing of the Special
Servicer's intention to so release all or a portion of such Mortgaged Property
and (iii) the Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting
Rights shall not have objected to such release within 30 days of the Trustee's
distributing such notice.
(e) The Special Servicer shall provide written reports to the
Trustee and the Master Servicer monthly regarding any actions taken by the
Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a defaulted
Mortgage Loan as to which the environmental testing contemplated in subsection
(c) above has revealed that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i)
and (ii) of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied or that any
remedial, corrective or other further action contemplated by either such clause
is required, in each case until the earliest to occur of (i) satisfaction of
both such conditions and completion of all such remedial, corrective or other
further action, (ii) repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan by the Mortgage
Loan Seller and (iii) release of the lien of the related Mortgage on such
Mortgaged Property. The Trustee shall forward copies of all such reports to the
Certificateholders and the Rating Agencies promptly following the receipt
thereof.
(f) The Special Servicer shall file the information returns with
respect to the receipt of any mortgage interest received in a trade or business,
the reports of foreclosures and abandonments and reports relating to any
cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property

costs incurred in any such deficiency action, subject to its being entitled to
reimbursement therefor as a Servicing Advance as provided in Section 3.05(a).
(h) The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records,
certified by a Servicing Officer, of each Final Recovery Determination in

a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto signed by a
Servicing Officer thereof, the Trustee shall release, or cause any related
Custodian to release, such Mortgage File (or portion thereof) to the Master

on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to
enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage
or otherwise available at law or in equity or for any other purpose necessary or
advisable in the reasonable, good faith judgment of the Special Servicer;
provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall be responsible for the
preparation of all such documents and pleadings; and when submitted to the
Trustee for signature, such documents or pleadings shall be accompanied by a
certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents
be executed by the Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or
pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the
Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except

SECTION 3.11 Servicing Compensation; Interest on Servicing
Advances; Payment of Certain Expenses; Obligations
of the Trustee Regarding Back-up Servicing Advances.
(a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master
Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Master Servicing Fee with respect to
each Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, each Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan) and REO Loan. As to each such Mortgage Loan and REO Loan, the
Master Servicing Fee shall accrue at the applicable Master Servicing Fee Rate on
the basis of the same principal amount and for the same number of days
respecting which any related interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan or
deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed under the terms of the related
Mortgage Note (as such terms may be changed or modified at any time following
the Closing Date) and applicable law, and without giving effect to any
Additional Interest that may accrue on any Hyper-Amortization Loan after its
Anticipated Repayment Date. The Master Servicing Fee with respect to any
Mortgage Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs in
respect thereof. Earned but unpaid Master Servicing Fees shall be payable
monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, from payments of interest on each Mortgage
Loan and REO Revenues allocable as interest on each REO Loan. The Master
Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Master Servicing Fees in respect of
any Mortgage Loan or REO Loan out of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds,
to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a). The right to receive the Master
Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection
with the transfer of all of the Master Servicer's responsibilities and
obligations under this Agreement or except as provided in Section 3.22(d). The
Master Servicer shall, monthly out of its Master Servicing Fee, pay to any
Sub-Servicer retained by the Master Servicer such Sub-Servicer's sub-servicing
fee (including, without limitation, any Primary Servicing Fee, if applicable),
to the extent such Sub-Servicer is entitled thereto under the applicable
Sub-Servicing Agreement.
(b) The Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive as additional
servicing compensation:
(i) Default Charges, assumption fees, modification fees, charges for
beneficiary statements or demands and any similar fees (excluding
Prepayment Premiums), in each case to the extent actually paid by a
Mortgagor with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is not a Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan;
(ii) amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds,
to the extent actually paid by a Mortgagor with respect to any Mortgage
Loan;
(iii) any Prepayment Interest Excesses collected on the Mortgage
Loans;
(iv) interest or other income earned on deposits in the Certificate
Account, in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the
Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to the Certificate Account
for each Collection Period); and
(v) to the extent not required to be paid to any Mortgagor under
applicable law or under the related Mortgage, any interest or other income
earned on deposits in the Servicing Accounts maintained by the Master
Servicer;
provided that with respect to the items of additional servicing compensation set
forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Master Servicer shall, in turn, pay the
amounts described therein to the related Sub-Servicer to the extent such
Sub-Servicer is entitled thereto under the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement.
The Master Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all
expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder
(including, without limitation, payment of any amounts due and owing to any
Sub-Servicer retained by it and the premiums for any blanket policy insuring
against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07(b)), if and to the extent such
expenses are not payable directly out of the Certificate Account, and the Master
Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly
provided in this Agreement.
(c) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special
Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to
each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan. As to each Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan and REO Loan, the Special Servicing Fee shall accrue from
time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate on the basis of the same
principal amount and for the same number of days respecting which any related
interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan
is computed under the terms of the related Mortgage Note (as such terms may be
modified at any time following the Closing Date) and applicable law, and without
giving effect to any Additional Interest that may accrue on any
Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date. The Special
Servicing Fee with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Loan
shall cease to accrue as of the date a Liquidation Event occurs in respect
thereof or it becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan. Earned but unpaid Special
Servicing Fees shall be payable monthly out of general collections on the
Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties on deposit in the Certificate Account
pursuant to Section 3.05(a).
As further compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer
shall be entitled to receive the Standby Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan
and each REO Loan. As to each Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan, the Standby Fee
shall accrue from time to time at the Standby Fee Rate on the basis of the same
principal amount and for the same number of days respecting which any related
interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan
is computed under the terms of the related Mortgage Note (as such terms may be
modified at any time following the Closing Date) and applicable law, and without
giving effect to any Additional Interest that may accrue on any
Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date. Standby Fees shall
be payable monthly by the Master Servicer on a loan-by-loan basis out of its
Master Servicing Fees received with respect to each Mortgage Loan and each REO
Loan.
As further compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer
shall be entitled to receive the Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected
Mortgage Loan, unless the basis on which such Mortgage Loan became a Corrected
Mortgage Loan was the remediation of a circumstance or condition relating to the
Mortgage Loan Seller's obligation to repurchase such Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 2.03, in which case, if such Mortgage Loan is repurchased within the
______ day period described in Section 2.03(a), no Workout Fee will be payable
from or based upon the receipt of, any Purchase Price paid by the Mortgage Loan
Seller in satisfaction of such repurchase obligation. Furthermore, no Workout
Fees will be payable from or based upon the receipt of any Liquidation Proceeds
paid by any Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class or the Master
Servicer in connection with the purchase of all the Mortgage Loans and any REO
Properties in the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof. As to each
Corrected Mortgage Loan, subject to the exceptions provided for in the two
preceding sentences, the Workout Fee shall be payable from, and shall be
calculated by application of the Workout Fee Rate to, each collection of
interest (other than Default Interest and, in the case of a Hyper-Amortization
Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date, Additional Interest) and principal
received on such Mortgage Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Mortgage
Loan. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Mortgage Loan will cease to
be payable if a Servicing Transfer Event occurs with respect thereto or if the
related Mortgaged Property becomes an REO Property; provided that a new Workout
Fee will become payable if and when such Mortgage Loan again becomes a Corrected
Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated other than for cause or
resigns in accordance with clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section 6.04,
it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable in respect
of Mortgage Loans that became Corrected Mortgage Loans during the period that it
acted as Special Servicer and were still such at the time of such termination or
resignation (and the successor Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any
portion of such Workout Fees), in each case until the Workout Fee for any such
Mortgage Loan ceases to be payable in accordance with the preceding sentence.
As further compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer
shall also be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee with respect to each
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property as to which it receives any
full or discounted payoff from the related Mortgagor or any Liquidation Proceeds
(other than in connection with the purchase of any such Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan or REO Property by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.18,
by the Master Servicer or the Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling
Class pursuant to Section 3.18 or Section 9.01, or by the Mortgage Loan Seller
pursuant to Section 2.03 within _____ days of its discovery or notice of the
breach or Document Defect that gave rise to the repurchase obligation, and other
than in connection with the condemnation or other governmental taking of a
Mortgaged Property or REO Property). As to each such Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loan or REO Property, the Liquidation Fee shall be payable from, and shall be
calculated by application of the Liquidation Fee Rate to, such full or
discounted payoff and/or Liquidation Proceeds (excluding any portion of such
payoff and/or proceeds that represents accrued but unpaid Additional Interest
with respect to a Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated Repayment Date
or accrued but unpaid Default Interest); provided that no Liquidation Fee will
be payable with respect to any such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan that
becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan; and provided, further, that (without limiting
the Special Servicer's right to any Workout Fee that is properly payable
therefrom), no Liquidation Fee will be payable from, or based upon the receipt
of, Liquidation Proceeds collected as a result of any purchase of a Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property described in the parenthetical to the
first sentence of this paragraph or in connection with a condemnation or other
governmental taking of a Mortgaged Property or REO Property.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Liquidation Fee and a
Workout Fee relating to the same Mortgage Loan shall not be paid from the same
proceeds on or with respect to such Mortgage Loan.
The Special Servicer's right to receive the Special Servicing Fee, the
Standby Fee, the Workout Fee and/or the Liquidation Fee may not be transferred
in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Special
Servicer's responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.
(d) The Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive as additional
special servicing compensation:
(i) (A) to the extent allocable to the period when any Mortgage Loan
is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or to the extent allocable to an REO
Loan, any Net Default Charges actually collected on such Mortgage Loan or
REO Loan, as the case may be, and (B) assumption fees, modification fees,
charges for beneficiary statements or demands and any similar fees
(excluding Prepayment Premiums) actually collected on or with respect to
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans or REO Loans; and
(ii) interest or other income earned on deposits in the REO Account,
if established, in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent
of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to the REO Account
for each Collection Period).
To the extent the amounts described in clause (i)(B) of the preceding
paragraph are collected by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall
promptly pay such amounts to the Special Servicer and shall not be required to
deposit such amounts in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a).
Additional servicing compensation to which the Master Servicer (or, if so
provided by the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement, any Sub-Servicer retained
thereby) is entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(b) in the form of assumption fees,
modification fees, charges for beneficiary statements or demands and any similar
fees (excluding Prepayment Premiums) collected by the Special Servicer on
Mortgage Loans that are not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans or REO Loans, or
in the form of amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds with
respect to any Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loans), shall be paid promptly to the Master Servicer by the Special
Servicer.
The Special Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all
overhead, general and administrative expenses incurred by it in connection with
its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of
any amounts due and owing to any Sub-Servicers retained by it and the premiums
for any blanket policy obtained by it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to
Section 3.07(b)), if and to the extent such expenses are not payable directly
out of the Certificate Account or the REO Account and the Master Servicer is not
required to advance such expenses at the direction of the Special Servicer, and
the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement except as expressly
provided in this Agreement.
(e) If the Master Servicer or Special Servicer is required under
this Agreement to make a Servicing Advance, but neither does so within 15 days
after such Servicing Advance is required to be made, the Trustee shall, if it
has actual knowledge of such failure on the part of the Master Servicer or
Special Servicer, as the case may be, give notice of such failure, as
applicable, to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer. If such
Servicing Advance is not made by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
within one Business Day after such notice then (subject to Section 3.11(g)
below), the Trustee shall make such Servicing Advance. Any failure by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer to make a Servicing Advance it is required to
make hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default by the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as the case may be, subject to and as provided in Section
7.01(a).
(f) As and to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a), the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer (to the extent it has not already been reimbursed
for any such Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer) and the Trustee shall
each be entitled to receive interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from
time to time, accrued on the amount of each Servicing Advance made thereby (out
of its own funds) for so long as such Servicing Advance is outstanding, and such
interest will be paid: first, out of any Default Charges collected on or in
respect of the related Mortgage Loan during, and allocable to, the period, if
any, that it was a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or an REO Loan; and second,
at any time coinciding with or following the reimbursement of such Servicing
Advance, out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties
on deposit in the Certificate Account. As and to the extent provided in Sections
3.03(a) and 3.05(a), the Master Servicer shall reimburse itself, the Special
Servicer or the Trustee, as appropriate, for any Servicing Advance made thereby
as soon as practicable after funds available for such purpose are (deposited in
the Certificate Account or a Servicing Account.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, none
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, shall be required
to make any Servicing Advance (including, without limitation, an Emergency
Advance) that it determines in its reasonable, good faith judgment would
constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. In addition, Nonrecoverable
Servicing Advances shall be reimbursable pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vii) out of
general collections on the Mortgage Pool on deposit in the Certificate Account.
The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or, if
applicable, the Trustee, that it has made a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or
that any proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable
Servicing Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate delivered
promptly to the Trustee (or, if applicable, retained thereby), the Depositor and
the Rating Agencies, setting forth the basis for such determination, together
with (if such determination is prior to the liquidation of the related Mortgage
Loan or REO Property) a copy of an Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property
or REO Property, as the case may be, which shall have been performed within the
twelve months preceding such determination, and further accompanied by any other
information, including, without limitation, engineers' reports, environmental
surveys, inspection reports, rent rolls, income and expense statements or
similar reports, that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may have
obtained and that supports such determination. If such an Appraisal shall not
have been required and performed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may, subject to its
reasonable and good faith determination that such Appraisal will demonstrate the
nonrecoverability of a Servicing Advance, obtain an Appraisal for such purpose
at the expense of the Trust. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on any
determination of nonrecoverability that may have been made by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer with respect to a particular Servicing Advance,
and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any determination of
nonrecoverability that may have been made by the Special Servicer with respect
to a particular Servicing Advance.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the
Master Servicer shall (at the direction of the Special Servicer if a Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan or an REO Property is involved) pay directly out of the
Certificate Account any servicing expense that, if paid by the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance;
provided that the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer, if a Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan or an REO Property is involved) has determined in
accordance with the Servicing Standard that making such payment is in the best
interests of the Certificateholders (as a collective whole), as evidenced by an
Officer's Certificate delivered promptly to the Trustee, the Depositor and the
Rating Agencies, setting forth the basis for such determination and accompanied
by any information that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may have
obtained that supports such determination.
SECTION 3.12 Inspections; Collection of Financial Statements.
(a) Commencing in 200_, the Master Servicer shall inspect or cause
the inspection of each Mortgaged Property at least once every two years (or, if
the related Mortgage Loan has a then current balance greater than $2,000,000, at
least once every year), provided that at least 50% of the Mortgaged Properties
(by both number and aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage
Loans) will be inspected each year by the Master Servicer (or an entity employed
by the Master Servicer for such purpose) or, in accordance with the second
succeeding sentence, by the Special Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be
responsible for such inspections only in respect of (i) Mortgage Loans that are
not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and (ii) Corrected Mortgage Loans. The
Special Servicer, subject to statutory limitations or limitations set forth in
the related Mortgage Loan documents, shall perform or cause to be performed a
physical inspection of a Mortgaged Property as soon as practicable after the
servicing of the related Mortgage Loan is transferred thereto pursuant to
Section 3.21(a). The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each prepare
or cause to be prepared as soon as reasonably possible a written report of each
such inspection performed or caused to be performed thereby detailing the
condition of the Mortgaged Property and specifying the existence of (i) any
vacancy in the Mortgaged Property that is, in the reasonable judgment of the
Master Servicer or Special Servicer (or their respective designees), as the case
may be, material and is evident from such inspection, (ii) any abandonment of
the Mortgaged Property, (iii) any change in the condition or value of the
Mortgaged Property that is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or
Special Servicer (or their respective designees), as the case may be, material
and is evident from such inspection, (iv) any waste on or deferred maintenance
in respect of the Mortgaged Property that is evident from such inspection or (v)
any capital improvements made that are evident from such inspection. The Master
Servicer and Special Servicer each shall, within ____ days of the preparation
thereof, deliver to the Trustee, any single Holder that then constitutes the
Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class, the Rating Agencies and
each other a copy of (and, upon request, shall promptly discuss therewith the
contents of) each such written report prepared or caused to be prepared by or on
behalf of it. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall obtain (and shall deliver
to the requesting party and the Trustee) such additional information with
respect to the matters addressed in such written report as the Special Servicer,
and/or any single Holder that then constitutes the Majority Certificateholder of
the Controlling Class, may reasonably request and shall cooperate with and
reasonably assist the Special Servicer in making direct inquiries with any
Mortgagor to the extent any such direct inquiry by the Special Servicer would
not violate the terms of any applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement; provided that
if the Special Servicer or any such Certificateholder shall desire such an
inquiry to be made of a Mortgagor, and if the subject Mortgage Loan is then
being primary serviced by a Sub-Servicer, then the Master Servicer shall in each
instance (regardless of whether such Mortgage Loan was originated by such
Sub-Servicer), unless otherwise agreed by such Sub-Servicer, first request that
such Sub-Servicer make such inquiry (and the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer may contact such Mortgagor directly in such instance if such request
has been so made to such Sub-Servicer and the requested information has not
thereafter been obtained by such Sub-Servicer within a reasonable time). The
Trustee shall make available to Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and
prospective Certificateholders and Certificate Owners (which prospective
Certificateholders and Certificate Owners have been certified to it as such by a
Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner), in accordance with Section 8.12(b),
copies of all the written reports delivered to it pursuant to this Section
3.12(a) and, if and to the extent delivered to it in a written or electronic
format, the related additional information referred to in the preceding
sentence. In the absence of actual knowledge that the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer is in default under this Section 3.12(a), the Trustee shall
have no obligation to confirm that inspections of the Mortgaged Properties are
being performed in accordance with this Section 3.12(a). The preceding sentence
notwithstanding, in the event the Trustee has received, as of December 31 of any
calendar year, inspection reports with respect to less than 50% of the Mortgaged
Properties as set forth in the first sentence of this Section 3.12(a), the
Trustee shall notify the Master Servicer of such fact in writing on or before
January 31 of the immediately succeeding calendar year. The notice provided by
the Trustee to the Master Servicer of the deficiency in the number of inspection
reports provided to the Trustee, shall constitute notice "requiring the same to
be remedied" within the meaning of Section 7.01(a)(vi) hereof and shall so state
on its face. If the Master Servicer does not provide satisfactory evidence
(which shall include the presentation of the required reports) of the
performance of the number of inspections required pursuant to the first sentence
of this Section 3.12(a) within _____ days of such notice, the Master Servicer
shall be deemed to have failed duly to observe and perform in all material
respects its covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 3.12(a).
(b) The Special Servicer, in the case of the Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties, and the Master Servicer, in the case of all
other Mortgage Loans, shall make reasonable efforts to collect or otherwise
obtain promptly (from the related Mortgagor in the case of a Mortgage Loan)
annual and quarterly operating statements and rent rolls of the related
Mortgaged Property or REO Property (and financial statements of the related
Mortgagor in the case of a Mortgage Loan), whether or not delivery of such items
is required pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage. The Special Servicer,
in the case of the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties, and the
Master Servicer, in the case of all other Mortgage Loans, shall promptly: (i)
review all such items as may be collected; (ii) prepare written reports based on
such reviews identifying the revenues, expenses, Net Operating Income and Debt
Service Coverage Ratios for the related Mortgage Loans and REO Loans and any
extraordinary increases or decreases in expenses or revenues associated with the

collected items, and of the written reports prepared in respect thereof, to the
Trustee, any single Holder that then constitutes the Majority Certificateholder
of the Controlling Class, the Rating Agencies and each other, in each case
within ____ days of its receipt or preparation, as applicable (it being
understood and agreed that with respect to Mortgage Loans (including, without
limitation, Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) that are primary serviced by a
Sub-Servicer, such collected items shall be deemed to have been received by the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, at the same time
they are received by the applicable Sub-Servicer); and (iv) promptly upon the
request of any Person referred in the immediately preceding clause (iii), to
discuss therewith the contents of the collected items and the written reports
referred to in the immediately preceding clause (iii). Furthermore, the Master
Servicer shall obtain (and shall deliver to the requesting party and the
Trustee) such additional information with respect to the matters addressed in
the collected items and written reports referred to above as the Special
Servicer, and/or any single Holder that then constitutes the Majority
Certificateholder of the Controlling Class, may reasonably request and shall
cooperate with and reasonably assist the Special Servicer in making direct
inquiries with any Mortgagor to the extent any such direct inquiry by the
Special Servicer would not violate the terms of any applicable Sub-Servicing
Agreement; provided that if the Special Servicer or any such Certificateholder
shall desire such an inquiry to be made of a Mortgagor, and if the subject
Mortgage Loan is then being primary serviced by a Sub-Servicer, then the Master
Servicer shall in each instance (regardless of whether such Mortgage Loan was
originated by such Sub-Servicer), unless otherwise agreed by such Sub-Servicer,
first request that such Sub-Servicer make such inquiry (and the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer may contact such Mortgagor directly in such instance if
such request has been so made to such Sub-Servicer and the requested information
has not thereafter been obtained by such Sub-Servicer within a reasonable time).
The Trustee shall make available to Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and
prospective Certificateholders and Certificate Owners (which prospective
Certificateholders and Certificate Owners have been certified to it as such by a
Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner), in accordance with Section 8.12(b),
copies of all the written reports delivered to it pursuant to this Section
3.12(b) and, if and to the extent delivered to it in written or electronic
format, the related additional information referred to in the preceding
sentence. In the absence of actual knowledge that the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer is in default under this Section 3.12(b), the Trustee shall
have no obligation to confirm that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
has or is attempting to collect any of the items described above in this Section
3.12(b).
SECTION 3.13 Annual Statement as to Compliance.
Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer will deliver to
the Trustee, with a copy to the Depositor, on or before __________ of each year,

The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, to the extent
applicable, will reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in conforming any
Officer's Certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 3.13 to requirements
imposed by the Commission on the Depositor in connection with the Commission's
issuance of a no-action letter relating to the Depositor's reporting
requirements in respect of the Trust pursuant to the Exchange Act.
SECTION 3.14 Reports by Independent Public Accountants.
On or before __________ of each year, beginning _______, 200___ (or,
as to any such year, such earlier date as is contemplated by the last sentence
of this paragraph), each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, at its
expense, shall cause a firm of independent public accountants that is a member
of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement
to the Depositor and the Trustee to the effect that such firm has examined such
documents and records as it has deemed necessary and appropriate relating to the
Master Servicer's or the Special Servicer's, as the case may be, servicing of
the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement or the servicing of mortgage loans
similar to the Mortgage Loans under substantially similar agreements for the
preceding calendar year (or during the period from the date of commencement of
the Master Servicer's or the Special Servicer's, as the case may be, duties
hereunder until the end of such preceding calendar year in the case of the first
such certificate) and that the assertion of the management of the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, that it maintained an
effective internal control system over servicing of the Mortgage Loans or
similar mortgage loans is fairly stated in all material respects, based upon
established criteria, which statement meets the standards applicable to
accountants' reports intended for general distribution. In rendering its report
such firm may rely, as to matters relating to the direct servicing of
securitized commercial and multifamily mortgage loans by Sub-Servicers, upon
comparable reports of firms of independent certified public accountants rendered
on the basis of examinations conducted in accordance with the same standards
(rendered within one year of such report) with respect to those Sub-Servicers.
If the Depositor notifies the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer on or before _________ of any year that such statements are required to
be filed with the Commission as part of the Form 10-K for the Trust covering the
prior calendar year, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall
deliver such statement in respect of it by ____________ of such year.
The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, to the extent
applicable, will reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in conforming any
reports delivered pursuant to this Section 3.14 to requirements imposed by the
Commission on the Depositor in connection with the Commission's issuance of a
no-action letter relating to the Depositor's reporting requirements in respect
of the Trust pursuant to the Exchange Act.
SECTION 3.15 Access to Certain Information.
Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide
or cause to be provided to the other such party, the Depositor, the Trustee and
the Rating Agencies, and to the OTS, the FDIC, and any other federal or state
banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any
Certificateholder, access to any documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans and
the other assets of the Trust Fund that are within its control which may be
required by this Agreement or by applicable law. Such access shall be afforded
without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal
business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
the case may be, designated by it.
SECTION 3.16 Title to REO Property; REO Account.
(a) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the deed or
certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. The Special Servicer shall sell any REO Property by the end
of the third calendar year following the year in which the Trust acquires
ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code,
unless the Special Servicer either (i) is granted an extension of time (an "REO
Extension") by the Internal Revenue Service to sell such REO Property or (ii)
obtains for the Trustee and the REMIC Administrator an Opinion of Counsel,
addressed to the Trustee and the REMIC Administrator, to the effect that the
holding by the Trust of such REO Property subsequent to the end of the third
calendar year following the year in which such acquisition occurred, will not
result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of REMIC I or
REMIC II as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause REMIC I or REMIC II to
fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. If
the Special Servicer is granted the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of
the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel
contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special
Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such period longer than three years
following the year that such property was acquired, as is permitted by such REO
Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any reasonable expense
incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with its being granted the REO
Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its
obtaining the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second
preceding sentence, shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the
Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a). Any REO Extension shall be
requested by the Special Servicer no later than ___ days before the end of the
third calendar year following the year in which the Trust acquired ownership of
the related REO Property.
(b) The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds
collected and received in connection with any REO Property separate and apart
from its own funds and general assets. If an REO Acquisition shall occur, the
Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts
(collectively, the "REO Account"), to be held on behalf of the Trustee in trust
for the benefit of the Certificateholders, for the retention of revenues and
other proceeds derived from each REO Property. The REO Account shall be an
Eligible Account and may consist of one account for all the REO Properties. The
Special Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the REO Account,
within two Business Days of receipt, all REO Revenues, Liquidation Proceeds (net
of all Liquidation Expenses paid therefrom) and Insurance Proceeds received in
respect of an REO Property. The Special Servicer is authorized to pay out of
related Liquidation Proceeds any Liquidation Expenses incurred in respect of an
REO Property and outstanding at the time such proceeds are received. Funds in
the REO Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with
Section 3.06. The Special Servicer shall be entitled to make withdrawals from
the REO Account to pay itself, as additional servicing compensation in
accordance with Section 3.11(d), interest and investment income earned in
respect of amounts held in the REO Account as provided in Section 3.06(b) (but
only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings with respect to the REO
Account for any Collection Period). The Special Servicer shall give notice to
the other parties hereto of the location of the REO Account when first
established and of the new location of the REO Account prior to any change
thereof.
(c) The Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account funds
necessary for the proper operation, management, maintenance and disposition of
any REO Property, but only to the extent of amounts on deposit in the REO
Account relating to such REO Property. Within one Business Day following the end
of each Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO
Account and deposit into the Certificate Account or deliver to the Master
Servicer (which shall deposit such amounts into the Certificate Account) the
aggregate of all amounts received in respect of each REO Property during such
Collection Period, net of any withdrawals made out of such amounts pursuant to
the preceding sentence; provided that the Special Servicer may retain in the REO
Account such portion of proceeds and collections as may be necessary to maintain
a reserve of sufficient funds for the proper operation, management, maintenance
and disposition of the related REO Property (including without limitation the
creation of a reasonable reserve for repairs, replacements and necessary capital
improvements and other related expenses), such reserve not to exceed an amount
sufficient to cover such items to be incurred during the following twelve-month
period.
(d) The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate records,
on a property-by-property basis, for the purpose of accounting for all deposits
to, and withdrawals from, the REO Account pursuant to Section 3.16(b) or (c).
SECTION 3.17 Management of REO Property.
(a) Prior to the acquisition of title to any Mortgaged Property
securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall review the
operation of such Mortgaged Property and determine the nature of the income that
would be derived from such property if it were acquired by the Trust. If the
Special Servicer determines from such review that:
(i) None of the income from Directly Operating such Mortgaged
Property would be subject to tax as "net income from foreclosure property"
within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions or would be subject to the tax
imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F of the Code
(either such tax referred to herein as an "REO Tax"), such Mortgaged
Property may be Directly Operated by the Special Servicer as REO Property;
(ii) Directly Operating such Mortgaged Property as an REO Property
could result in income from such property that would be subject to an REO
Tax, but that a lease of such property to another party to operate such
property, or the performance of some services by an Independent Contractor
with respect to such property, or another method of operating such
property would not result in income subject to an REO Tax, then the
Special Servicer may (provided, that in the good faith and reasonable
judgment of the Special Servicer, it is commercially feasible) acquire
such Mortgaged Property as REO Property and so lease or operate such REO
Property; or
(iii) It is reasonable to believe that Directly Operating such
property as REO Property could result in income subject to an REO Tax and
that no commercially feasible means exists to operate such property as REO
Property without the Trust incurring or possibly incurring an REO Tax on
income from such property, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the REMIC
Administrator, in writing, a proposed plan (the "Proposed Plan") to manage
such property as REO Property. Such plan shall include potential sources
of income, and to the extent commercially feasible, estimates of the
amount of income from each such source. Within a reasonable period of time
after receipt of such plan, the REMIC Administrator shall consult with the
Special Servicer and shall advise the Special Servicer of the Trust's
federal income tax reporting position with respect to the various sources
of income that the Trust would derive under the Proposed Plan. In
addition, the REMIC Administrator shall (to the maximum extent possible)
advise the Special Servicer of the estimated amount of taxes that the
Trust would be required to pay with respect to each such source of income.
After receiving the information described in the two preceding sentences
from the REMIC Administrator, the Special Servicer shall either (A)
implement the Proposed Plan (after acquiring the respective Mortgaged
Property as REO Property) or (B) manage and operate such property in a
manner that would not result in the imposition of an REO Tax on the income
derived from such property.
The Special Servicer's decision as to how each REO Property shall be
managed and operated shall be based on the good faith and reasonable judgment of
the Special Servicer as to which means would be in the best interest of the
Certificateholders by maximizing (to the extent commercially feasible) the net
after-tax REO Revenues received by the Trust with respect to such property
without materially impairing its marketability and, to the extent consistent
with the foregoing, in the same manner as would prudent mortgage loan servicers
and asset managers operating acquired mortgaged property comparable to such REO
Property. Both the Special Servicer and the REMIC Administrator may consult with
counsel knowledgeable in such matters at (to the extent reasonable) the expense
of the Trust in connection with determinations required under this Section
3.17(a). Neither the Special Servicer nor the REMIC Administrator shall be
liable to the Certificateholders, the Trust, the other parties hereto or each
other for errors in judgment made in good faith in the reasonable exercise of
their discretion while performing their respective responsibilities under this
Section 3.17(a) or, to the extent it relates to federal income tax consequences
for the Trust, Section 3.17(b) below. Nothing in this Section 3.17(a) is
intended to prevent the sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property
pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of Section 3.18.
(b) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer
shall manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property for the benefit of
the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale
in a manner that does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or,
except as contemplated by Section 3.17(a), result in the receipt by either of
REMIC I or REMIC II of any "income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning
of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or in an Adverse REMIC Event in respect of
any such REMIC. Except as provided in Section 3.17(a), the Special Servicer
shall not enter into any lease, contract or other agreement that causes REMIC I
to receive, and (unless required to do so under any lease, contract or agreement
to which the Special Servicer or the Trust may become a party or successor to a
party due to a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or other similar
exercise of a creditor's rights or remedies with respect to a Mortgage Loan)
shall not cause or allow REMIC I to receive any "net income from foreclosure
property" that is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. Subject to the
foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to
do any and all things in connection therewith as are consistent with the
Servicing Standard and, consistent therewith, shall withdraw from the REO
Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to any REO
Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, maintenance and
disposition of such REO Property, including without limitation:
(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO
Property;
(ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO
Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;
[(iii) any ground rents in respect of such REO Property;] and
[(iv) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain, lease, sell,
protect, manage, operate and restore such REO Property.
To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account in respect of any
REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through
[(iv)] above with respect to such REO Property, the Special Servicer shall
direct the Master Servicer to make (and the Master Servicer shall so make)
Servicing Advances in such amounts as are necessary for such purposes unless (as
evidenced in the manner contemplated by Section 3.11(g)) the Special Servicer or
the Master Servicer determines, in its reasonable, good faith judgment, that
such payment would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance.
(c) The Special Servicer may (and, except as otherwise permitted by
Section 3.17(a), shall if it would avoid an Adverse REMIC Event) contract with
any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property,
provided that:
[(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract may not be
inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm's
length;
[(ii) the fees of such Independent Contractor [(which shall be
expenses of the Trust)] shall be reasonable and customary in consideration
of the nature and locality of the REO Property;
[(iii) any such contract shall be consistent with the provisions of
Treasury Regulation ss.1.856-4(b)(5) and, to the extent consistent
therewith, shall be administered to require that the Independent
Contractor, in a timely manner, (A) to the extent of available revenue
from the REO Property, pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection
with the operation and management of such REO Property, including, without
limitation, those listed in Section 3.17(b) above, and (B) remit all
related revenues collected (net of [its fees and] such costs and expenses)
to the Special Servicer upon receipt;
[(iv) none of the provisions of this Section 3.17(c) relating to any
such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor
shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and
obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of any
such REO Property;
[(v) the Special Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to
the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations
in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property; and
[(vi) the appointment of such Independent Contractor will not result
in a qualification, downgrading or withdrawal of any of the ratings then
assigned to the Certificates by such Rating Agency (as evidenced in
writing or otherwise by such Rating Agency).
The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any
Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and
obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such
Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit
or modify such indemnification.
SECTION 3.18 Sale of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.
(a) The parties hereto may sell or purchase, or permit the sale or
purchase of, a Mortgage Loan or REO Property only on the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in this Section 3.18 or as otherwise expressly provided
in or contemplated by Sections 2.03 and 9.01.
(b) [If the Special Servicer has determined, in its good faith and
reasonable judgment, that any Defaulted Mortgage Loan will become the subject of
a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding, and that the sale of such Mortgage
Loan under the circumstances provided in this Section 3.18(b) or in Section
3.18(c) is in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall
promptly so notify in writing the Trustee and the Master Servicer, and the
Trustee shall, within 10 days after receipt of such notice, notify all the
Certificateholders of the Controlling Class. The Majority Certificateholder of
the Controlling Class may at its option purchase from the Trust, at a price
equal to the applicable Purchase Price, any such Defaulted Mortgage Loan. The
Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan purchased under this paragraph (b) shall be
deposited into the Certificate Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an
Officer's Certificate from the Master Servicer to the effect that such deposit
has been made, shall release or cause to be released to the Certificateholder(s)
effecting such purchase (or any designee thereof) the related Mortgage File, and
shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each
case without recourse, as shall be provided to it and are reasonably necessary
to vest in the Certificateholder(s) effecting such purchase (or any designee
thereof) ownership of such Mortgage Loan. In connection with any such purchase,
the Special Servicer shall deliver the related Servicing File to the
Certificateholder(s) effecting such purchase (or any designee thereof).
(c) If the Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class has
not purchased any Defaulted Mortgage Loan described in the first sentence of
Section 3.18(b) within 15 days of its having received notice in respect thereof
pursuant to Section 3.18(b)] above, either the Special Servicer or, subject to
the Special Servicer's prior rights in such regard, the Master Servicer may at
its option purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust, at a price equal to the
Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan purchased under
this paragraph (c) shall be deposited into the Certificate Account, and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer's Certificate from the Master Servicer to
the effect that such deposit has been made, shall release or cause to be
released to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the
related Mortgage File, and shall execute and deliver such instruments of
transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be provided to
it and are reasonably necessary to vest in the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, the ownership of such Mortgage Loan. In connection with
any such purchase by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall deliver the
related Servicing File to the Master Servicer.
(d) The Special Servicer may offer to sell any Defaulted Mortgage
Loan not otherwise purchased pursuant to Section 3.18(b) or Section 3.18(c)
above, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the
Servicing Standard, that such a sale would be in the best economic interests of
the Trust. Such offer shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner (which,
for purposes hereof, includes an offer to sell without representation or
warranty other than customary warranties of title, loan status, condition and
similar customary matters, if liability for breach thereof is limited to
recourse against the Trust) for a period of not less than 30 days. Unless the
Special Servicer determines that acceptance of any offer would not be in the
best economic interests of the Trust, the Special Servicer shall accept the
highest cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for
such Mortgage Loan. In the absence of any offer determined as provided below to
be fair, the Special Servicer shall proceed with respect to such Defaulted
Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 3.09 and, otherwise, in accordance with
the Servicing Standard.
The Special Servicer shall use its best efforts to solicit offers for each
REO Property in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price
within the time period provided for by Section 3.16(a). The Special Servicer
shall accept the first (and, if multiple offers are received contemporaneously,
highest) cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price
(determined pursuant to Section 3.18(e) below) for such REO Property. If the
Special Servicer reasonably believes that it will be unable to realize a fair
price (determined pursuant to Section 3.18(e) below) for any REO Property within
the time constraints imposed by Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall
dispose of such REO Property upon such terms and conditions as the Special
Servicer shall deem necessary and desirable to maximize the recovery thereon
under the circumstances and, in connection therewith, shall accept the highest
outstanding cash offer, regardless of from whom received.
The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee and the Master Servicer not
less than five Business Days' prior written notice of its intention to sell any
Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property pursuant to this Section 3.18(d). No
Interested Person shall be obligated to submit an offer to purchase any such
Mortgage Loan or REO Property, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, neither the Trustee nor any of its respective Affiliates may make an
offer for or purchase any Defaulted Mortgage Loan or any REO Property pursuant
hereto.
(e) Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for any
Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property, as the case may be, for purposes of
Section 3.18(d), shall be determined by the Special Servicer or, if such cash
offer is from an Interested Person, by the Trustee. In determining whether any
offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such
Mortgage Loan or REO Property, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely
on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with
this Agreement within the preceding 12-month period or, in the absence of any
such Appraisal, on a narrative appraisal prepared by a Qualified Appraiser,
retained by the Special Servicer. Such appraiser shall be selected by the
Special Servicer if neither the Special Servicer nor any Affiliate thereof is
making an offer with respect to a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property and
shall be selected by the Trustee if the Special Servicer or an Affiliate thereof
is making such an offer. The cost of any such narrative appraisal shall be
advanced by the Master Servicer, at the direction of the Special Servicer, and
shall constitute a Servicing Advance. When any Interested Person is among those
making an offer with respect to a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property, the
Special Servicer shall require that all offers be submitted in writing and be
accompanied by a refundable deposit of cash in an amount equal to 5% of the
offered amount. In determining whether any offer from a Person other than an
Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any such Mortgage Loan or REO
Property, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the
results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may
have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior 12 months), and in
determining whether any offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price
for any such Mortgage Loan or REO Property, any appraiser or other expert in
real estate matters shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable,
among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the affected
Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the Mortgaged
Property or REO Property, the state of the local economy and the obligation to
dispose of any REO Property within the time period specified in Section 3.16(a).
Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 3.18, no cash offer from
any Interested Person or any Affiliate thereof in an amount less than the
related Purchase Price shall constitute a fair price for any Defaulted Mortgage
Loan or REO Property unless such offer is the highest cash offer received and at
least two additional offers (not including the offers of Interested Persons or
any Affiliates thereof) have been received from Independent third parties
reflecting prices less than the related Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for
any Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property shall in all cases be deemed a fair
price.
(f) Subject to Sections 3.18(a) through 3.18(e) above, the Special
Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trustee in negotiating and taking any other
action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any Defaulted
Mortgage Loan or REO Property, and the collection of all amounts payable in
connection therewith. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer may charge
prospective offerors, and may retain, fees that approximate the Special
Servicer's actual costs in the preparation and delivery of information
pertaining to such sales or evaluating offers without obligation to deposit such
amounts into the Certificate Account. Any sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or
any REO Property shall be final and without recourse to the Trustee or the Trust
(except such recourse imposed by those representations and warranties typically
given in such transactions, any prorations applied thereto and any customary
closing matters), and if such sale is consummated in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement, none of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the
Trustee shall have any liability to any Certificateholder with respect to the
purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.
(g) Any sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or any REO Property shall
be for cash only (unless, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, changes in the
REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other
consideration).
(h) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing paragraphs of this Section
3.18, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the highest cash
offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing
Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders, and the Special Servicer may accept a lower cash offer (from
any Person other than itself or an Affiliate) if it determines, in accordance
with the Servicing Standard, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best
interests of the Certificateholders (for example, if the prospective buyer
making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations or the terms
(other than price) offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are
more favorable).
SECTION 3.19 Additional Obligations of the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer.
(a) The Master Servicer shall maintain at its Primary Servicing
Office and shall, upon reasonable advance written notice, make available during
normal business hours for review by each Rating Agency and by any
Certificateholder or Certificate Owner or any Person identified to the Master
Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate or an interest therein,
copies of the Servicing Files; provided that, if the Master Servicer in its
reasonable, good faith determination believes that any item of information
contained in such Servicing Files is of a nature that it should be conveyed to
all Certificateholders at the same time, it shall, as soon as reasonably
possible following its receipt of any such item of information, disclose such
item of information to the Trustee as part of the reports to be delivered to the
Trustee by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02(b), and until the
Trustee has either disclosed such information to all Certificateholders in a
Distribution Date Statement or has properly filed such information with the
Commission on behalf of the Trust under the Exchange Act, the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to withhold such item of information from any
Certificateholder or Certificate Owner or prospective transferee of a
Certificate or an interest therein; and provided, further, that the Servicer
shall not be required to make particular items of information contained in the
Servicing File for any Mortgage Loan available to any Person if the disclosure
of such particular items of information is expressly prohibited by the
provisions of any related Mortgage Loan documents. Except as set forth in the
provisos to the preceding sentence, copies of all or any portion of any
Servicing File are to be made available by the Master Servicer upon request;
however, the Master Servicer shall be permitted to require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of providing
such service. The Special Servicer shall, as to each Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loan and REO Property, promptly deliver to the Master Servicer a copy of each
document or instrument added to the related Servicing File, and the Master
Servicer shall in no way be in default under this Section 3.19(a) solely by
reason of the Special Servicer's failure to do so.
In connection with providing access to or copies of the items described in
the preceding paragraph, the Master Servicer may require, unless the Depositor
directs otherwise, (a) in the case of Certificate Owners, a written confirmation
executed by the requesting Person, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Master
Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is a beneficial holder of
Certificates and will otherwise keep such information confidential and (b) in
the case of a prospective purchaser, confirmation executed by the requesting
Person generally to the effect that such Person is a prospective purchaser of a
Certificate or an interest therein, is requesting the information for use in
evaluating a possible investment in Certificates and will otherwise keep such
information confidential. All Certificateholders, by the acceptance of their
Certificates, shall be deemed to have agreed to keep such information
confidential, except to the extent that the Depositor grants written permission
to the contrary. The Master Servicer shall not be liable for the dissemination
of information in accordance with this Section 3.19(a).
(b) Within 30 days (or within such longer period as the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is (as certified thereby to the
Trustee in writing) diligently and in good faith proceeding to obtain the
Appraisal referred to below) after the earliest of (i) the date on which any
Mortgage Loan becomes a Modified Mortgage Loan, (ii) the 90th day following the
occurrence of any uncured delinquency in Monthly Payments with respect to any
Mortgage Loan, (iii) the date on which a receiver is appointed in respect of the
Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, (iv) the date on which the
Mortgagor under any Mortgage Loan becomes the subject of bankruptcy or
insolvency proceedings, and (v) the date on which the Mortgaged Property
securing any Mortgage Loan becomes an REO Property (each such Mortgage Loan and
any related REO Loan, until it ceases to be such in accordance with the
following paragraph, a "Required Appraisal Loan"), the Master Servicer or
Special Servicer, as applicable, shall obtain an Appraisal of the related
Mortgaged Property; unless an Appraisal thereof had previously been obtained
within the prior twelve months. The cost of such Appraisal shall be advanced by
the Master Servicer, subject to its being entitled to reimbursement therefor as
a Servicing Advance as provided in Section 3.05(a), such Advance to be made at
the direction of the Special Servicer when the Appraisal is obtained by the
Special Servicer.
With respect to each Required Appraisal Loan (unless such loan has become
a Corrected Mortgage Loan and has remained current for twelve consecutive
Monthly Payments, and no other Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with
respect thereto during such twelve months, in which case it will cease to be a
Required Appraisal Loan), the Special Servicer shall, within 30 days of each
anniversary of such loan's becoming a Required Appraisal Loan, order an update
of the prior Appraisal (the cost of which shall be advanced by the Master
Servicer as a Servicing Advance at the direction of the Special Servicer,
subject to the Master Servicer's right to reimbursement as provided in Section
3.05(a)). Based upon such Appraisal, the Special Servicer shall redetermine and
report to the Trustee the Appraisal Reduction Amount, if any, with respect to
such loan.
(c) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each deliver
to the other and to the Trustee (for inclusion in the Mortgage File) and the
Rating Agencies copies of all Appraisals, environmental reports and engineering
reports (or, in each case, updates thereof) obtained with respect to any
Mortgaged Property or REO Property.
(d) No more frequently than once per calendar month, the Special
Servicer may require the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall be
obligated, to reimburse the Special Servicer for any Servicing Advances made by
the Special Servicer, but not previously reimbursed (whether pursuant to Section
3.05(a), this Section 3.19(d) or otherwise) to the Special Servicer, and to pay
the Special Servicer interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from the date
made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such reimbursement and
any accompanying payment of interest shall be made within ten (10) days of the
request therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account
designated by the Special Servicer. Upon the Master Servicer's reimbursement to
the Special Servicer of any Servicing Advance and payment to the Special
Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with this Section 3.19(d), the
Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have made
such Servicing Advance at the same time as the Special Servicer originally made
such Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement for such Advance, together with Advance Interest thereon, at the
same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master Servicer
would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such Servicing
Advance.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if
the Special Servicer (i) is required under any other provision of this Agreement
to direct the Master Servicer to make a Servicing Advance or (ii) is otherwise
aware a reasonable period in advance that it is reasonably likely that the
Special Servicer will incur a cost or expense that will, when incurred,
constitute a Servicing Advance, the Special Servicer shall (in the case of
clause (i) preceding), and shall use reasonable efforts to (in the case of
clause (ii) preceding), request that the Master Servicer make such Servicing
Advance, such request to be made in writing and in a timely manner that does not
materially and adversely affect the interests of any Certificateholder and at
least five Business Days prior to the date on which failure to make such
Servicing Advance would (with notice from the Trustee regardless of whether such
notice is actually received) constitute an Event of Default pursuant to Section
7.01(a)(v); provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have an
obligation to make any Emergency Advance or any other Servicing Advance with
respect to which it would, under the circumstances, be inconsistent with the
Servicing Standard for the Special Servicer to request that the Master Servicer
make such Servicing Advance (in lieu of making such Servicing Advance itself and
seeking reimbursement therefor as provided herein); and provided, further, that
the Special Servicer shall, with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans
and REO Properties, make any Servicing Advance that it fails to timely request
the Master Servicer to make. The Master Servicer shall have the obligation to
make any such Servicing Advance that it is requested by the Special Servicer to
make within five Business Days of the Master Servicer's receipt of such request.
Subject to the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall be relieved of any
obligations with respect to a Servicing Advance that it timely requests the
Master Servicer to make (regardless of whether or not the Master Servicer shall
make such Servicing Advance), other than an Emergency Advance or any other
Servicing Advance with respect to which it would, under the circumstances, be
inconsistent with the Servicing Standard for the Special Servicer to request
that the Master Servicer make such Servicing Advance (in lieu of making such
Servicing Advance itself and seeking reimbursement therefor as provided herein).
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for any Servicing Advance
made by it at the direction of the Special Servicer, together with Advance
Interest thereon, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as
the Master Servicer is entitled with respect to any other Servicing Advance made
thereby.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.19(d) or any
other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not
be required to reimburse the Special Servicer for, or make at the Special
Servicer's direction, any Servicing Advance if the Master Servicer determines in
its reasonable, good faith judgment that the Servicing Advance which the Special
Servicer is directing the Master Servicer to reimburse it for or make hereunder,
although not characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Servicing
Advance, is or would be, if made, a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master
Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer and the Trustee in writing of such
determination. Such notice shall not obligate the Special Servicer to make such
Servicing Advance.
(e) The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in
the Distribution Account on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, without any
right of reimbursement therefor, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
aggregate of all Prepayment Interest Shortfalls incurred in connection with
Principal Prepayments received in respect of the Mortgage Pool during the most
recently ended Collection Period, and (ii) that portion of its aggregate Master
Servicing Fee for the related Collection Period that is, in the case of each and
every Mortgage Loan and REO Loan, calculated at 0.040% per annum, together with
the total amount of additional master servicing compensation to which the Master
Servicer is entitled under Section 3.11(b) and that was received during such
Collection Period.
(f) Except under the same circumstances that it would be permitted
to waive a prepayment lockout provision in the subject Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 3.20(a), neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall
consent to any Mortgagor's prepaying its Mortgage Loan, partially or in its
entirety, if the Mortgagor would be prohibited from doing so without such
consent.
(g) The Master Servicer shall not exercise any discretionary right
it has with respect to any Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Mortgage Note
or Mortgage to apply any amounts maintained as an escrow or reserve to the
principal balance of such Mortgage Loan except in the case of a default
thereunder.
SECTION 3.20 Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents.
(a) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each may,
consistent with the Servicing Standard, agree to any modification, waiver or
amendment of any term of, forgive or defer the payment of interest (including,
without limitation, Default Interest and Additional Interest) on and principal
of, forgive late payment charges and Prepayment Premiums on, permit the release,
addition or substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of
the Mortgagor on or any guarantor of any Mortgage Loan it is required to service
and administer hereunder, without the consent of the Trustee or any
Certificateholder, subject, however, to each of the following limitations,
conditions and restrictions:
(i) other than as expressly provided in Section .02 (with respect to
Default Charges), Section 3.08 (with respect to due-on-sale and
due-on-encumbrance clauses) and Section 3.20(f) (with respect to
Additional Interest), the Master Servicer shall not agree to any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, or take any of the other
acts referenced in this Section 3.20(a) with respect to, any Mortgage Loan
it is required to service and administer hereunder that would affect the
amount or timing of any related payment of principal, interest or other
amount payable thereunder or, in the Master Servicer's good faith and
reasonable judgment, materially impair the security for such Mortgage Loan
or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of amounts due thereon; the
Special Servicer may, however, agree to any modification, waiver or
amendment of any term of, or take any of the other acts referenced in this
Section 3.20(a) with respect to, a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan that
would have any such effect, but only if a material default on such
Mortgage Loan has occurred or, in the Special Servicer's reasonable and
good faith judgment, a default in respect of payment on such Mortgage Loan
is reasonably foreseeable, and such modification, waiver, amendment or
other action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to
Certificateholders (as a collective whole) on a present value basis (the
relevant discounting of anticipated collections that will be distributable
to Certificateholders to be performed at the related Net Mortgage Rate
(or, in the case of a Hyper-Amortization Loan after its Anticipated
Repayment Date, the related Net Mortgage Rate in effect immediately prior
to such Anticipated Repayment Date)), than would liquidation;
(ii) the Special Servicer may not, in connection with any particular
extension, extend the maturity date of any Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loan beyond _________ ____, 20__;
(iii) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall
make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, or
take any of the other acts referenced in this Section 3.20(a) or in
Section 3.08 with respect to, any Mortgage Loan that would (A) cause 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 of either such REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or
(B) cause any Mortgage Loan to cease to be a "qualified mortgage" within
the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (neither the Master Servicer
nor the Special Servicer shall be liable for decisions made under this
subsection which were made in good faith and, unless it would constitute
bad faith or negligence to do so, each of the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer may rely on Opinions of Counsel in making such
decisions);
(iv) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall
permit any Mortgagor to add or substitute any collateral for an
outstanding Mortgage Loan, which additional or substitute collateral
constitutes real property, unless the Special Servicer shall have first
determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard, based upon a Phase I
Environmental Assessment (and such additional environmental testing as the
Special Servicer deems necessary and appropriate) prepared by an
Independent Person who regularly conducts Phase I Environmental
Assessments (and such additional environmental testing), at the expense of
the Mortgagor, that such additional or substitute collateral is in
compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and that
there are no circumstances or conditions present with respect to such new
collateral relating to the use, management or disposal of any Hazardous
Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment,
clean-up or remediation would be required under any then applicable
environmental laws and/or regulations; and
(v) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall
release any collateral securing an outstanding Mortgage Loan (including,
without limitation, as part of a substitution of collateral), except in
connection with a payment in full or, subject to the other provisions of
this Section 3.20, a discounted payoff of such Mortgage Loan, or except as
provided in Section 3.09(d), or except where the Rating Agencies have been
notified in writing and (A) either (1) the use of the collateral to be
released will not, in the Master Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as the
case may be, good faith and reasonable judgment, materially and adversely
affect the Net Operating Income being generated by or the use of the
related Mortgaged Property, or (2) there is a corresponding principal
paydown of such Mortgage Loan in an amount at least equal to, or a
delivery of substitute collateral with an appraised value at least equal
to, the appraised value of the collateral to be released, (B) the
remaining Mortgaged Property and any substitute collateral is, in the
Master Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as the case may be, good faith
and reasonable judgment, adequate security for the remaining Mortgage Loan
and (C) if the collateral that is being released has an Appraised Value in
excess of $3,000,000, __________ has confirmed in writing that such
release and/or substitution would not result in the downgrade,
qualification or withdrawal of the rating then assigned by __________ to
any Class of Certificates;
provided that (1) the limitations, conditions and restrictions set forth in
clauses (i) through (v) above shall not apply to any of the acts referenced in
this Section 3.20(a) in respect of any Mortgage Loan that is expressly provided
for, or that the related Mortgagor is permitted to effect without the
mortgagee's consent, in any event under the terms of such Mortgage Loan in
effect on the Closing Date, and (2) notwithstanding clauses (i) through (v)
above, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to
oppose the confirmation of a plan in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding
involving a Mortgagor if in their reasonable and good faith judgment such
opposition would not ultimately prevent the confirmation of such plan or one
substantially similar.
(b) The Special Servicer shall have no liability to the Trust, the
Certificateholders or any other Person if its analysis and determination that
the modification, waiver, amendment or other action contemplated by Section
3.20(a) is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to Certificateholders
on a present value basis than would liquidation, should prove to be wrong or
incorrect, so long as the analysis and determination were made on a reasonable
basis in good faith by the Special Servicer and the Special Servicer has
complied with the Servicing Standard in ascertaining the pertinent facts. Each
such determination shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate to such effect
to be delivered by the Special Servicer to the Trustee.
(c) Any payment of interest, which is deferred pursuant to Section
3.20(a), shall not, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation,
calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid
principal balance or Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan,
notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit or that such
interest may actually be capitalized.
(d) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each may, as a
condition to its granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification,
waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing (except with respect to any
waiver pursuant to subsection (f) below), the granting of which is within the
Master Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as the case may be, discretion pursuant
to the terms of the instruments evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan
and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay
to it, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable and customary fee (not
to exceed 1.0% of the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan) for
the additional services performed in connection with such request, together with
any related costs and expenses incurred by it.
(e) All modifications, waivers, amendments and other actions entered
into or taken in respect of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the preceding
subsections of this Section 3.20 shall be in writing. Each of the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer shall notify the other such party and the
Trustee, in writing, of any modification, waiver, amendment or other action
entered into or taken in respect of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section
3.20 and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the Trustee or the related
Custodian for deposit in the related Mortgage File (with a copy to the other
such party), an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such
modification, waiver, amendment or other action, promptly (and in any event
within ____ Business Days) following the execution thereof. In addition,
following the execution of any modification, waiver or amendment agreed to by
the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.20(a) above, the Special Servicer
shall deliver to the Master Servicer and the Trustee an Officer's Certificate
setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the determination made by it
pursuant to clause (i) of Section 3.20(a).
(f) With respect to any Hyper-Amortization Loan after its
Anticipated Repayment Date, the Master Servicer shall be permitted, in its
discretion, to waive (such waiver to be in writing addressed to the related
Mortgagor, with a copy to the Trustee) all or any accrued Additional Interest
if, prior to the related maturity date, the related Mortgagor has requested the
right to prepay the Mortgage Loan in full together with all payments required by
the Mortgage Loan in connection with such prepayment except for all or a portion
of accrued Additional Interest, provided that the Master Servicer's
determination to waive the right to such accrued Additional Interest is
reasonably likely to produce a greater payment to Certificateholders on a
present value basis (the relevant discounting of anticipated collections that
will be distributable to Certificateholders to be performed at the related Net
Mortgage Rate in effect immediately prior to the related Anticipated Repayment
Date) than a refusal to waive the right to such Additional Interest. The Master
Servicer will have no liability to the Trust, the Certificateholders or any
other person so long as such determination is based on such criteria.
SECTION 3.21 Transfer of Servicing Between Master Servicer
and Special Servicer; Record Keeping.
(a) Upon determining that a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred
with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly give
notice thereof, and deliver the related Servicing File, to the Special Servicer
and shall use its best efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all
information, documents (or copies thereof) and records (including records stored
electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to the
Mortgage Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to
assume its functions hereunder with respect thereto without acting through a
Sub-Servicer. The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to comply with the
preceding sentence within five Business Days of the occurrence of each related
Servicing Transfer Event.
Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan has become a
Corrected Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall promptly give notice
thereof, and return the related Servicing File, to the Master Servicer and upon
giving such notice, and returning such Servicing File, to the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer's obligation to service such Mortgage Loan, and the Special
Servicer's right to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, shall terminate, and the obligations of the Master Servicer to
service and administer such Mortgage Loan shall resume.
Notwithstanding other provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Master Servicer shall remain responsible for the accounting, data collection,
reporting and other basic Master Servicer administrative functions with respect
to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, provided that the Special Servicer shall
establish procedures for the Master Servicer as to the application of receipts
and tendered payments and shall have the exclusive responsibility for and
authority over all contacts (including billing and collection) with and notices
to Mortgagors and similar matters relating to each Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loan and the related Mortgaged Property.
Also notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with
the transfer to the Special Servicer of the servicing of a Cross-Collateralized
Mortgage Loan as a result of a Servicing Transfer Event or the re-assumption of
servicing responsibilities by the Master Servicer with respect to any such
Mortgage Loan upon its becoming a Corrected Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer
and the Special Servicer shall each transfer to the other, as and when
applicable, the servicing of all other Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loans
constituting part of the same Group; provided that no Cross-Collateralized
Mortgage Loan may become a Corrected Mortgage Loan at any time that a continuing
Servicing Transfer Event exists with respect to another Cross-Collateralized
Mortgage Loan in the same Group.
(b) In servicing any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, the Special
Servicer shall provide to the Trustee originals of documents contemplated by the
definition of "Mortgage File" and generated while such Mortgage Loan is a
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, for inclusion in the related Mortgage File
(with a copy of each such original to the Master Servicer), and copies of any
additional related Mortgage Loan information, including correspondence with the
related Mortgagor generated while such Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in
the event that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are the same Person,
all notices, certificates, information, consents and documents required to be
given or delivered by the Master Servicer to the Special Servicer or vice versa
shall be deemed to be given or delivered, as the case may be, without the
necessity of any action on such Person's part.
SECTION 3.22 Sub-Servicing Agreements.
(a) The Master Servicer and, with the consent of the Depositor, the
Special Servicer, may each enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements to provide for
the performance by third parties of any or all of its obligations hereunder,
provided that, in each case, the Sub-Servicing Agreement: (i) is not
inconsistent with this Agreement; (ii) expressly or effectively provides that if
the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall for any
reason no longer act in such capacity hereunder (including, without limitation,
by reason of an Event of Default), any successor to the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder (including the Trustee if the
Trustee has become such successor pursuant to Section 7.02) may thereupon either
assume all of the rights and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date
of assumption, obligations of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the
case may be, under such agreement or, subject to the provisions of Section
3.22(d), terminate such rights and obligations, in either case without payment
of any fee except as set forth in Section 3.22(d); (iii) in the case of a
Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer, expressly or
effectively provides that such agreement shall be suspended with respect to any
Mortgage Loan serviced thereunder at the time such Mortgage Loan becomes a
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (but only until such time as such Mortgage Loan
becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan) and, except as set forth in Section 3.22(d),
the Sub-Servicer shall not receive or accrue an entitlement to any sub-servicing
compensation in respect of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or an REO Loan;
(iv) in the case of a Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Special
Servicer, relates only to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans or REO Properties
and expressly or effectively provides that such agreement shall terminate with
respect to any such Mortgage Loan that becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan; (v) in
the case of a Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer,
provides that the related Sub-Servicer shall comply with all reasonable requests
for additional information made by the Master Servicer and, further, provides
that the failure of the related Sub-Servicer to furnish the Master Servicer on
timely basis with any required reports, statements or other information,
including without limitation, the reports referred to in Section 3.12, either
(A) shall permit the Master Servicer to make necessary inquiries of the related
Borrower directly or (B) shall (subject to a cure period not to exceed ______
days) constitute an event of default thereunder for which the Master Servicer
may terminate such Sub-Servicer without payment of any termination fee (it being
understood that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (v), the
obligations of a Sub-Servicer in respect of the second sentence of Section
3.12(b) hereof may be limited to the provision of reports as agreed between the
Master Servicer and such Sub-Servicer and response to reasonable inquiries from
the Master Servicer with respect thereto); and (vi) in the case of a
Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer subsequent to the
Closing Date, is approved by the Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling
Class and the Special Servicer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld);
[provided that, without in any way limiting the obligations of the Master
Servicer hereunder or its liability or responsibility for the performance of
such obligations, the requirements of items (i) through (v) of this sentence
shall not (for the first six months following the Closing Date) apply with
respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement to which the Master Servicer is a party
in effect on the Closing Date and covering one or more Mortgage Loans (it being
understood and agreed that the Master Servicer shall cause each such
Sub-Servicing Agreement then still in effect to satisfy such requirements by the
end of such six-month period).] References in this Agreement to actions taken or
to be taken by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
include actions taken or to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; and, in connection
therewith, all amounts advanced by any Sub-Servicer to satisfy the obligations
of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder to
make Advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as the case may be, out of its own funds and, accordingly,
such Advances shall be recoverable by such Sub-Servicer in the same manner and
out of the same funds as if such Sub-Servicer were the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, and, for so long as they are outstanding,
such Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.11(f) and/or
Section 4.03(d), such interest to be allocable between the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and such Sub-Servicer as they may
agree. For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer each shall be deemed to have received any payment when a Sub-Servicer
retained by it receives such payment. The Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer each shall notify the other such party, the Trustee and the Depositor
in writing promptly of the appointment by it of any Sub-Servicer, and shall
deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any
amendments thereto and modifications thereof, entered into by it promptly upon
its execution and delivery of such documents; provided that the foregoing
requirements set forth in this sentence shall not apply in the case of the
Sub-Servicing Agreements in effect as of the Closing Date that are listed on
Schedule II hereto or in the case of the Sub-Servicers thereunder. Furthermore,
the Master Servicer shall not consent to the amendment or modification of any
Sub-Servicing Agreement to which it is a party without having obtained the prior
consent of the Special Servicer and the Majority Certificateholder of the
Controlling Class, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided
that no such consent of the Special Servicer or the Majority Certificateholder
of the Controlling Class shall be required with respect to any amendment or
modification of a Sub-Servicing Agreement in effect on the Closing Date and
covering one or more Mortgage Loans, if and to the extent that such modification
or amendment is effected during the first 180 days following the Closing Date in
order to correct any inconsistency between such Sub-Servicing Agreement and this
Agreement.
(b) Each Sub-Servicer [(i)] shall be authorized to transact business
in the state or states in which the Mortgaged Properties for the Mortgage Loans
it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law,
[and (ii) shall be an approved conventional seller/servicer of multifamily
mortgage loans for Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae or a HUD-Approved Servicer.]
(c) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, for the benefit of
the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall (at no expense to the Trustee, the
Certificateholders or the Trust) each monitor the performance and enforce the
obligations of its Sub-Servicers under the related Sub-Servicing Agreements.
Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of
claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements in accordance with their
respective terms and the terms of this Agreement, and the pursuit of other
appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent
and at such time as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the
Mortgage Loans. Promptly upon becoming aware of a default under any
Sub-Servicing Agreement to which it is a party, the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall notify the other such party, the
Trustee and the Certificateholders of the Controlling Class.
(d) With respect to the Sub-Servicing Agreements in effect as of the
Closing Date that are listed on Schedule II hereto, the initial Master Servicer
in its [partnership] capacity hereby agrees that it shall not, in its capacity
as Master Servicer, terminate any Sub-Servicer thereunder without cause. In the
event of the resignation, removal or other termination of the initial Master
Servicer (or any successor Master Servicer) hereunder for any reason, the
successor to the initial Master Servicer (or to such successor Master Servicer)
shall elect, with respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement existing at the time of
such termination (i) to assume the rights and obligations of the predecessor
Master Servicer under such Sub-Servicing Agreement and continue the
sub-servicing arrangements thereunder on the same terms (including without
limitation the obligation to pay the same sub-servicing fee), (ii) to enter into
a new Sub-Servicing Agreement with such Sub-Servicer and on such terms as the
new Master Servicer and such Sub-Servicer shall mutually agree (it being
understood that such Sub-Servicer is under no obligation to accept any such new
Sub-Servicing Agreement or to enter into or continue negotiations with the new
Master Servicer) or (iii) to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement without
cause, provided that no Sub-Servicer may be terminated without cause unless it
receives Sub-Servicer Termination Compensation. For purposes hereof, a
Sub-Servicer shall receive "Sub-Servicer Termination Compensation" if any
successor Master Servicer elects to terminate such Sub-Servicer without cause,
in which case either of the following shall occur: (i) such successor Master
Servicer shall pay to such Sub-Servicer a fee (a "Sub-Servicer Termination Fee")
in an amount equal to two times the product of (A) the Primary Servicing Fee
Rate in effect under such Sub-Servicing Agreement at the time of such
Sub-Servicer's termination and (B) the then-current outstanding principal
balance of the Mortgage Loans serviced by such Sub-Servicer or (ii) such
successor Master Servicer shall agree to pay such Sub-Servicer an interest-only
strip (the "Termination Strip") out of its related Master Servicing Fees for
each Mortgage Loan serviced by such Sub-Servicer at the time of such
Sub-Servicer's termination (such strip to be calculated in the same manner as
the related Master Servicing Fees, but at a per annum rate equal to the
applicable Primary Servicing Fee Rate minus 0.___%). Any subsequent successor
Master Servicer shall be obligated to pay any such Termination Strip agreed to
by a predecessor Master Servicer. Nothing in the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3.22(d) shall limit the ability of the initial or a successor Master
Servicer to terminate a Sub-Servicer at any time for cause; provided, however,
that the parties hereto understand and agree that the refusal or failure of a
Sub-Servicer to enter into or continue negotiations with a successor Master
Servicer concerning a new Sub-Servicing Agreement shall not constitute cause for
termination. It shall be the corporate obligation (not reimbursable by the Trust
or any of the other parties to this Agreement) of the Person, who as successor
Master Servicer, terminates any Sub-Servicer without cause, and of its
successors and assigns in such capacity (to the extent contemplated by the
second preceding sentence), to pay Sub-Servicer Termination Compensation to such
terminated Sub-Servicer. References in this Section 3.22(d) to Master Servicer,
successor Master Servicer or subsequent successor Master Servicer shall mean the
Trustee, if it is then Master Servicer, successor Master Servicer or subsequent
Master Servicer pursuant to the operation of Section 7.02.
(e) In the event the Trustee or its designee assumes the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under any
Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, at its expense shall, upon request of the Trustee, deliver to the
assuming party all documents and records relating to such Sub-Servicing
Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and an
accounting of amounts collected and held on behalf of it thereunder, and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of
the Sub-Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.
(f) Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer
and the Special Servicer shall each remain obligated and liable to the Trustee
and the Certificateholders for the performance of its obligations and duties
under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent
and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and
administering the Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible.
SECTION 3.23 Designation of Special Servicer by the Majority
Certificateholder of the Controlling Class.
The Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class may at any
time and from time to time replace any existing Special Servicer or any Special
Servicer that has resigned or otherwise ceased to serve as Special Servicer.
Such Majority Certificateholder shall so designate a Person to so serve by the
delivery to the Trustee of a written notice stating such designation, subject to
the approval of the Trustee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The Trustee shall, promptly after receiving any such notice, so notify the
Rating Agencies. If the Trustee approves the designated Person (based upon the
servicing qualifications and financial condition of such designated Person)
as a replacement Special Servicer, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, the designated Person shall become the Special Servicer as of the date
the Trustee shall have received: (i) written confirmation from each Rating
Agency stating that if the designated Person were to serve as Special Servicer
hereunder, none of the then-current ratings assigned by such Rating Agency to
the respective Classes of the Certificates would be qualified, downgraded or
withdrawn as a result thereof; (ii) a written acceptance of all obligations of
the Special Servicer under this Agreement, executed by the designated Person;

execution and delivery of the written acceptance referred to in the immediately
preceding clause (ii), the designated Person shall be bound by the terms of this
Agreement and that this Agreement shall be enforceable against the designated

owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the effective date of such

The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each keep
confidential and shall not disclose to any Person other than each other, the
Depositor, the Trustee and the Rating Agencies, without the related
Sub-Servicer's prior written consent, any information which it obtains in its
capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer with regard to the Sub-Servicer
(other than the name of the Sub-Servicer) or the Mortgage Loans or any related
Mortgagor including, without limitation, credit information with respect to any

(ii) to the extent required by this Agreement or any Sub-Servicing Agreement,
(iii) to the extent such information is otherwise publicly available, (iv) to
the extent such disclosure is required by law or (v) to the extent such

limitation, property inspectors, tax service companies, insurance carriers, and
data systems vendors) in connection with the performance of the Master
Servicer's or the Special Servicer's obligations hereunder. For purposes of this

Master Servicer or Special Servicer (including without limitation any investor
in any of the Certificates and any such division, department or Affiliate
engaged in the origination of, or investment in, commercial or multifamily
mortgage loans), all of which shall be regarded as Persons not entitled to
Confidential Information.
SECTION 3.25 No Solicitation of Prepayments.
Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall solicit
or permit any Affiliate to solicit, either directly or indirectly, prepayments
from any Mortgagors under the Mortgage Loans; provided however, that the
foregoing restriction shall not be interpreted to prohibit such solicitation by
a division or department of, or an Affiliate of, the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer if such solicitation occurs incidentally in the normal course
of business and such solicitation is not conducted, in whole or in part, (i) by
a Person engaged at any time in activities relating to the servicing of Mortgage
Loans or (ii) based upon or otherwise with the benefit of any information
obtained by or through the Master Servicer or Special Servicer or from
documentation relating to the Certificates, including without limitation any
listing of the Mortgage Loans or related Mortgagors or Mortgaged Properties.
Each Sub-Servicing Agreement shall contain a provision identical to the
foregoing with respect to the related Sub-Servicer.

Distribution Date, the payments of principal to be made pursuant to clause (ii)
above, will be so made to the Holders of the respective Classes of Class A
Certificates, subject to available funds, up to an amount equal to, and pro rata
as among such Classes in accordance with, the respective then outstanding Class
Principal Balances of such Classes of Certificates, and without regard to the
Principal Distribution Amount for such date; and provided, further, that, on the
Final Distribution Date, the payments of principal to be made pursuant to any of
clauses (v), (viii), (xi), (xiv), (xvii), (xx), (xxiii), (xxvi) and (xxix) above
with respect to any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates, will be so made to the
Holders thereof, subject to available funds, up to an amount equal to the entire
then outstanding Class Principal Balance of such Class of Certificates, and
without regard to the Principal Distribution Amount for such date. References to
"remaining Principal Distribution Amount" in clause (ii) above, in connection
with payments of principal to be made to the Holders of any Class of Class A
Certificates, shall be to the Principal Distribution Amount for such
Distribution Date, net of any distributions of principal made in respect thereof
to the Holders of each other Class of Class A Certificates, if any, that
pursuant to clause (ii) above has an earlier right to payment with respect
thereto. References to "remaining Principal Distribution Amount" in any of
clauses (v), (viii), (xi), (xiv), (xvii), (xx), (xxiii), (xxvi) and (xxix)
above, in connection with the payments of principal to be made to the Holders of
any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates, shall be to the Principal Distribution
Amount for such Distribution Date, net of any payments of principal made in
respect thereof to the Holders of each other Class of Sequential Pay
Certificates that has a higher Payment Priority.
Any Prepayment Premium (whether described in the related
Mortgage Loan documents as a fixed prepayment premium or a yield maintenance
amount) actually collected with respect to a Mortgage Loan or REO Loan during
any particular Collection Period will be distributed on the related Distribution
Date as follows:
(i) first, to the Holders of the Class X Certificates and the
Holders of the respective Class or Classes of Sequential Pay Certificates
then entitled to distributions of principal on such Distribution Date, up
to an amount equal to the corresponding PV Yield Loss Amount (as defined
below) for each such Class of Certificates, pro rata in accordance with
their respective entitlements; and
(ii) then, to the extent of any portion of such Prepayment Premium
remaining following the distributions described in the preceding clause
(i), to the Holders of the Class X Certificates.
The "PV Yield Loss Amount" for any Distribution Date shall mean,
with respect to any Class of REMIC II Regular Certificates as to which any
payment of principal is to be applied on such Distribution Date in reduction of
its Class Principal Balance or Class Notional Amount, as the case may be, an
amount equal to the product of the applicable Annuity Factor and the applicable
Lost Coupon Amount.
For purposes of computing the PV Yield Loss Amount for any Class of
REMIC II Regular Certificates for any Distribution Date, the following
definitions shall apply:
The "Annuity Factor" for any Class of REMIC II Regular Certificates
shall be equal to the following:
-n
1-(1 + T)
----------------------------
T
where n equals either (i) one-twelfth of the number of months from such
Distribution Date to the Assumed Final Distribution Date for such Class, if the
Assumed Final Distribution Date for such Class is later than such Distribution
Date, or (ii) zero, if the Assumed Final Distribution Date for such Class
coincides with or is earlier than such Distribution Date, and T equals the
Reinvestment Yield.
The "Assumed Final Distribution Date" for each Class of REMIC II
Regular Certificates is the Distribution Date in the month set forth below with
respect to such Class.
Month of Assumed Final
Class Distribution Date
----- -----------------
Class A-1 __________, 20__
Class A-2 __________, 20__
Class X __________, 20__
Class B __________, 20__
Class C __________, 20__
Class D __________, 20__
Class E __________, 20__
Class F __________, 20__
Class G __________, 20__
Class H __________, 20__
Class J __________, 20__
Class K __________, 20__
The "Lost Coupon Amount" shall mean: (a) with respect to any Class
of Sequential Pay Certificates as to which a payment of principal is to be
applied on such Distribution Date in reduction of its Class Principal Balance,
the product of (x) the amount, if any, by which the Pass-Through Rate for such
Class exceeds the applicable Reinvestment Yield and (y) the aggregate amount of
principal paid to such Class in reduction of its Class Principal Balance on such
Distribution Date; and (b) with respect to the Class X Certificates, the product
of (x) the Pass-Through Rate applicable to such Class for such Distribution Date
and (y) the aggregate amount of the reduction of its Class Notional Amount on
such Distribution Date.
The "Reinvestment Yield" for any Class of REMIC II Regular
Certificates and any Distribution Date shall be a rate determined by the
Trustee, in good faith, equal to the average yield for "This Week" as most
recently reported by the Federal Reserve Board in Federal Reserve Statistical
Release H.15 (519) for U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity coterminous with
the Assumed Final Distribution Date for such Class. If there is no U.S. Treasury
security listed with a maturity coterminous with the Assumed Final Distribution
Date for such Class, then the Reinvestment Yield shall be a rate determined by
the Trustee, in good faith, equal to the interpolated yield to maturity of U.S.
Treasury securities with maturities next longer and shorter than such remaining
term to maturity (such interpolated yield to be rounded to the nearest whole
multiple of 1/100 of 1% per annum, if the interpolated yield is not such a
multiple). In the event the yields of U.S. Treasury securities are no longer
published in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15(519), the Trustee shall
select a comparable publication to determine the Reinvestment Yield.
(b) All distributions made with respect to each Class on each
Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates
in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Except as
otherwise provided below, all such distributions with respect to each Class on
each Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of the respective
Class of record at the close of business on the related Record Date and shall be
made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such
Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided the Trustee with written
wiring instructions [no less than five Business Days prior to the related Record
Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order
applicable to all subsequent Distribution Dates),] or otherwise by check mailed
to the address of such Certificateholder as it appears in the Certificate
Register. The final distribution on each Certificate (determined without regard
to any possible future reimbursement of any Realized Loss or Additional Trust
Fund Expense previously allocated to such Certificate) will be made in like
manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the
Corporate Trust Office or such other location specified in the notice to
Certificateholders of such final distribution. Any distribution that is to be
made with respect to a Certificate in reimbursement of a Realized Loss or
Additional Trust Fund Expense previously allocated thereto, which reimbursement
is to occur after the date on which such Certificate is surrendered as
contemplated by the preceding sentence, will be made by check mailed to the
address of the Certificateholder that surrendered such Certificate as such
address last appeared in the Certificate Registrar or to any other address of
which the Trustee was subsequently notified in writing.
(c) Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall
be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be
responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its
Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to
the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating
brokerage firm (a "brokerage firm" or "indirect participating firm") for which
it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds
to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
or the REMIC Administrator shall have any responsibility therefor except as
otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.
(d) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions
from the proceeds of the Trust Fund in respect of their Certificates, and all
rights and interests of the Certificateholders in and to such distributions,
shall be as set forth in this Agreement. Neither the Holders of any Class of
Certificates nor any party hereto shall in any way be responsible or liable to
the Holders of any other Class of Certificates in respect of amounts properly
previously distributed on the Certificates. Distributions in reimbursement of
Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses previously allocated to a
Class of Certificates shall not constitute distributions of principal and shall
not result in a reduction of the related Class Principal Balance.
(e) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the
Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of
Certificates (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of
any Realized Loss or Additional Trust Fund Expense previously allocated to such
Class of Certificates) will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Trustee
shall, as soon as practicable in the month in which such Distribution Date
occurs, mail to each Holder of such Class of Certificates as of the date of
mailing a notice to the effect that:
(i) the Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect to
such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but only
upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the Corporate
Trust Office or such other location therein specified, and
(ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after
such Distribution Date.
Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class
on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to
tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested
in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate
non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been
given pursuant to this Section 4.01(e) shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the
Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to
receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after
the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Trustee, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps
to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the
surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate. The costs and
expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such
Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such
second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such
funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any
amount held in trust hereunder by the Trustee as a result of such
Certificateholder's failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment
thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(e). If all of the Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation by the second anniversary of
the delivery of the second notice, the Trustee shall distribute to the Class
R-II Certificateholders all unclaimed funds and other assets which remain
subject hereto.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall comply with all federal withholding requirements respecting
payments to Certificateholders of interest or original issue discount that the
Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of
Certificateholders shall not be required for such withholding. In the event the
Trustee does withhold any amount from interest or original issue discount
payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to federal
withholding requirements, the Trustee shall indicate the amount withheld to such
Certificateholders.

and REO Property, a report (an "Operating Statement Analysis") containing
revenue, expense and net operating income information normalized using the
methodology described in Annex A of the Prospectus Supplement as of the end of
such calendar quarter. The requirement that the Master Servicer deliver each
Operating Statement Analysis is subject to the Master Servicer having received
directly or through the Special Servicer the related operating statements and
rent rolls from the related Mortgagor or otherwise.
The Master Servicer, on each Determination Date, shall forward (for
delivery on such Determination Date) to the Special Servicer all information
collected by the Master Servicer which the Special Servicer is required to
include in the Special Servicer Loan Status Report. Further, the Master Servicer
shall cooperate with the Special Servicer and provide the Special Servicer with

The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to notify the
Rating Agencies in a timely manner of any change in the identity of either of
the two largest tenants of any retail Mortgaged Property and any casualty at or

becoming aware of such change or event.
To the extent the statements, reports and information (or portions
thereof) to be delivered by the Master Servicer under this Section 4.02(b) are
derived from underlying information to be delivered to the Master Servicer by
the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall not be liable for any failure to
deliver such statement, report or information (or portion thereof) on the
prescribed dates, to the extent such failure is caused by the Special Servicer's
failure to deliver such underlying information in a timely manner. Absent actual
knowledge to the contrary, the Master Servicer may conclusively rely on any such
information forwarded to it by the Special Servicer and shall have no obligation
to verify the same.
(c) On the second Business Day after each Determination Date, the

(including lease summaries) provided to the Special Servicer by the Mortgagors

days of receipt.
SECTION 4.03 P&I Advances.
(a) On or before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Master
Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall either (i) deposit into the
Distribution Account from its own funds an amount equal to the aggregate amount
of P&I Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the related Distribution Date,
(ii) apply amounts held in the Certificate Account for future distribution to
Certificateholders in subsequent months in discharge of any such obligation to
make P&I Advances, or (iii) make P&I Advances in the form of any combination of
(i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made; provided
that if Late Collections of any of the delinquent principal and/or interest in
respect of which it is to make P&I Advances on any Master Servicer Remittance
Date are then on deposit in the Certificate Account, the Master Servicer shall
use such Late Collections (net of any Master Servicing Fees and Workout Fees
payable therefrom) to make such P&I Advances. Any amounts held in the
Certificate Account for future distribution and so used to make P&I Advances
(other than the Late Collections of the delinquent principal and/or interest
contemplated by the proviso to the preceding sentence) shall be appropriately
reflected in the Master Servicer's records and replaced by the Master Servicer
by deposit in the Certificate Account on or before the next succeeding
Determination Date (to the extent not previously replaced through the deposit of
Late Collections of the delinquent principal and/or interest in respect of which
such P&I Advances were made). If, as of 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any
Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall not have made any P&I
Advance required to be made on such date pursuant to this Section 4.03(a) (and
shall not have delivered to the Trustee the requisite Officer's Certificate and
documentation related to a determination of nonrecoverability of a P&I Advance),
then the Trustee shall provide notice of such failure to a Servicing Officer of
the Master Servicer by facsimile transmission sent to telecopy no. (____)
____-______ (or such alternative number provided by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee in writing) and by telephone at telephone no. (____) ___-____ (or such
alternative number provided by the Master Servicer to the Trustee in writing) as
soon as possible, but in any event before 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such
Master Servicer Remittance Date. If, after such notice, the Trustee does not
receive the full amount of such P&I Advances by the close of business (New York
City time) on such Master Servicer Remittance Date, then (i) unless the Trustee
determines that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance if made, the
Trustee shall make the portion of such P&I Advances that was required to be, but
was not, made by the Master Servicer on such Master Servicer Remittance Date and
(ii) such failure shall constitute an Event of Default on the part of the Master
Servicer.
(b) The aggregate amount of P&I Advances to be made in respect of
the Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, Balloon Mortgage Loans
delinquent as to their respective Balloon Payments) and any REO Loans for any
Distribution Date shall equal, subject to subsection (c) below, the aggregate of
all Monthly Payments (other than Balloon Payments) and any Assumed Monthly
Payments, in each case net of related Master Servicing Fees and Workout Fees
payable hereunder, that were due or deemed due, as the case may be, in respect
thereof on their respective Due Dates during the related Collection Period and
that were not paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagors or otherwise
collected as of the close of business on the last day of the related Collection
Period; provided that, if an Appraisal Reduction Amount exists with respect to
any Required Appraisal Loan, then, in the event of subsequent delinquencies
thereon, the interest portion of the P&I Advance in respect of such Required
Appraisal Loan for the related Distribution Date shall be reduced (it being
herein acknowledged that there shall be no reduction in the principal portion of
such P&I Advance) to equal the product of (i) the amount of the interest portion
of such P&I Advance for such Required Appraisal Loan for such Distribution Date
without regard to this proviso, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, expressed as a
percentage, the numerator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of
such Required Appraisal Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date, net of
the related Appraisal Reduction Amount, if any, and the denominator of which is
equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Required Appraisal Loan
immediately prior to such Distribution Date.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance
shall be required to be made hereunder if such P&I Advance would, if made,
constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. In addition, Nonrecoverable P&I
Advances shall be reimbursable pursuant to Section 3.05(a) out of general
collections on the Mortgage Pool on deposit in the Certificate Account. The
determination by the Master Servicer or, if applicable, the Trustee, that it has
made a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made,
would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, shall be evidenced by an
Officer's Certificate delivered promptly (and, in any event, in the case of a
proposed P&I Advance by the Master Servicer, no less than 5 Business Days prior
to the related Master Servicer Remittance Date) to the Trustee (or, if
applicable, retained thereby), the Depositor and the Rating Agencies, setting
forth the basis for such determination, together with ( such determination is
prior to the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property) a copy of
an Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property, as the case may
be, which shall have been performed within the twelve months preceding such
determination, and further accompanied by any other information that the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer may have obtained and that supports such
determination. The Trustee shall deliver such Officer's Certificate as soon as
practicable after its determination that such P&I Advance would be
nonrecoverable. If such an Appraisal shall not have been required and performed
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, may, subject to its reasonable and good faith
determination that such Appraisal will demonstrate the nonrecoverability of the
related Advance, obtain an Appraisal for such purpose at the expense of the
Trust. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on any determination of
nonrecoverability that may have been made by the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer with respect to a particular P&I Advance, and the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to rely on any determination of nonrecoverability that may have been
made by the Special Servicer with respect to a particular P&I Advance.
(d) As and to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a), the Master
Servicer and the Trustee shall each be entitled to receive interest at the
Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of each
P&I Advance made thereby (out of its own funds) for so long as such P&I Advance
is outstanding (or, in the case of Advance Interest payable to the Master
Servicer, if earlier, until the Late Collection of the delinquent principal
and/or interest in respect of which such P&I Advance was made has been received
by the Master Servicer or any of its Sub-Servicers), and such interest will be
paid: first, out of any Default Charges collected on or in respect of the
related Mortgage Loan during, and allocable to, the period, if any, that it was
a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or an REO Loan; and second, at any time
coinciding with or following the reimbursement of such P&I Advance, out of
general collections on the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties on deposit in
the Certificate Account. As and to the extent provided by Section 3.05(a), the
Master Servicer shall reimburse itself or the Trustee, as appropriate, for any
P&I Advance made thereby as soon as practicable after funds available for such
purpose are deposited in the Certificate Account, and in no event shall interest
accrue in accordance with this Section 4.03(d) on any P&I Advance as to which
the corresponding Late Collection had been received as of the related date on
which such P&I Advance was made.
SECTION 4.04 Allocation of Realized Losses and Additional
Trust Fund Expenses to the Sequential Pay
Certificates.
On each Distribution Date, following the distributions to be made to
the Certificateholders on such date pursuant to Section 4.01(a), the Trustee
shall determine the amount, if any, by which (i) the then aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Sequential Pay Certificates, exceeds (ii) the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool that will be outstanding
immediately following such Distribution Date. If such excess does exist, then
the Class Principal Balances of the Class K, Class J, Class H, Class G, Class F,
Class E, Class D, Class C and Class B Certificates shall be reduced
sequentially, in that order, in each case, until such excess or the related
Class Principal Balance is reduced to zero (whichever occurs first). If, after
the foregoing reductions, the amount described in clause (i) of the second
preceding sentence still exceeds the amount described in clause (ii) of the
second preceding sentence, then the respective Class Principal Balances of the
Class A-1 and Class A-2 Certificates shall be reduced, pro rata in accordance
with the relative sizes of the then outstanding Class Principal Balances of such
Classes of Certificates, until such excess or each such Class Principal Balance
is reduced to zero (whichever occurs first). Such reductions in the Class
Principal Balances of the respective Classes of the Sequential Pay Certificates
shall be deemed to be allocations of Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund
Expenses.
SECTION 4.05 Deemed Distributions on, and Allocations of
Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund
Expenses to, the REMIC I Regular Interests.
(a) All distributions of Distributable Certificate Interest made in
respect of the respective Classes of REMIC II Regular Certificates on each
Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(a) shall be deemed to have first been
distributed from REMIC I to REMIC II in respect of the respective REMIC I
Regular Interests, pro rata in accordance with, and in an amount equal to, the
aggregate Uncertificated Distributable Interest in respect of each REMIC I
Regular Interest for such Distribution Date and, to the extent not previously
deemed paid pursuant to this sentence, for all prior Distribution Dates. In
addition, distributions of principal and reimbursements of previously allocated
Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses made in respect of each Class
of Sequential Pay Certificates on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section
4.01(a) shall be deemed to have first been distributed from REMIC I to REMIC II
in respect of the Corresponding Major REMIC I Regular Interest and the
Corresponding Minor REMIC I Regular Interest, pro rata based on their respective
Uncertificated Principal Balances outstanding immediately prior to such
Distribution Date. In each such case, if such distribution on any such Class of
Certificates was a distribution of interest, of principal or in reimbursement of
any previously allocated Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses in
respect of any such Class of Certificates, then the corresponding distribution
deemed to be made on a REMIC I Regular Interest pursuant to the preceding two
sentences shall be deemed to also be a distribution of interest, of principal or
in reimbursement of any previously allocated Realized Losses and Additional
Trust Fund Expenses, as the case may be, in respect of such REMIC I Regular
Interest.
(b) All distributions of Prepayment Premiums made in respect of the
respective Classes of REMIC II Regular Certificates on each Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 4.01(a) shall be deemed to have first been distributed from
REMIC I to REMIC II in respect of the respective REMIC I Regular Interests, pro
rata based upon the amount of principal deemed distributed in respect of each
such REMIC I Regular Interest for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
4.05(a) above.
(c) The actual distributions made by the Trustee on each
Distribution Date in respect of the REMIC II Certificates pursuant to Section
4.01(a), shall be deemed to have been so made from the amounts deemed
distributed in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests on such Distribution
Date pursuant to this Section 4.05. Notwithstanding the deemed distributions on
the REMIC I Regular Interests described in this Section 4.05, actual
distributions of funds from the Distribution Account shall be made only in
accordance with Section 4.01.
(d) Each Realized Loss and Additional Trust Fund Expense, if any,
allocated to each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates on any Distribution Date
shall be deemed to have first been allocated to the Corresponding Major REMIC I
Regular Interest and the Corresponding Minor REMIC I Regular Interest (pro rata
based on their respective Uncertificated Principal Balances outstanding
immediately following the deemed distributions on such Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 4.05(a)), with a corresponding reduction in the
Uncertificated Principal Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest.
ARTICLE V
THE CERTIFICATES
SECTION 5.01 The Certificates.
(a) The Certificates will be substantially in the respective forms
annexed hereto as Exhibits X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0 and A-5; provided that any of the
Certificates may be issued with appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions
and variations, and may have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such
legend or legends, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, as
may be required to comply with any law or with rules or regulations pursuant
thereto, or with the rules of any securities market in which the Certificates
are admitted to trading, or to conform to general usage. The Certificates will
be issuable in registered form only; provided, however, that in accordance with
Section 5.03 beneficial ownership interests in the Registered Certificates and
the Class F Certificates shall initially be held and transferred through the
book-entry facilities of the Depository. The REMIC II Regular Certificates will
be issuable in denominations corresponding to initial Certificate Principal
Balances or Certificate Notional Amounts, as the case may be, as of the Closing
Date of not less than $__________ (or, with respect to the Class A Certificates,
$____________ and, with respect to the Class X Certificates, $____________) and
any whole dollar denomination in excess thereof; provided, however, that a
single Certificate of each Class thereof may be issued in a different
denomination. Each Class of Residual Certificates will be issuable only in a
denomination representing the entire Class.
(b) The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of the Trustee in its capacity as trustee hereunder by an
authorized officer. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were at any time the authorized officers of the Trustee shall be
entitled to all benefits under this Agreement, subject to the following
sentence, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates
or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificates. No Certificate
shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any
purpose, however, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of
authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the
Certificate Registrar by manual signature, and such certificate of
authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication;
provided that the Certificates issued on the Closing Date shall, in any event,
be dated the Closing Date.
SECTION 5.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) At all times during the term of this Agreement, there shall be
maintained at the office of the Certificate Registrar a Certificate Register in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Certificate Registrar may
prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of
Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.
The Trustee is hereby initially appointed (and hereby agrees to act in
accordance with the terms hereof) as Certificate Registrar for the purpose of
registering Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein
provided. For so long as the Trustee acts as Certificate Registrar, its
Corporate Trust Office shall constitute the office of the Certificate Registrar
maintained for such purposes. The Trustee may appoint, by a written instrument
delivered to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the
REMIC Administrator, any other bank or trust company to act as Certificate
Registrar under such conditions as the predecessor Certificate Registrar may
prescribe, provided that the Trustee shall not be relieved of any of its duties
or responsibilities hereunder as Certificate Registrar by reason of such
appointment. If the Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms
hereof, the successor trustee shall immediately succeed to its predecessor's
duties as Certificate Registrar. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall have the right to inspect the
Certificate Register or to obtain a copy thereof at all reasonable times, and to
rely conclusively upon a certificate of the Certificate Registrar as to the
information set forth in the Certificate Register. Upon request, the Trustee
shall promptly inform, or cause the Certificate Registrar to inform, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of the identity of all
Certificateholders of the Controlling Class.
If three or more Certificateholders (hereinafter referred to as
"applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and such application states that
the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect
to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and is
accompanied by a copy of the communication which such applicants propose to
transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of
such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to
the most recent list of Certificateholders held by the Trustee. If the Trustee
is no longer the Certificate Registrar and such a list is as of a date more than
90 days prior to the date of receipt of such applicants' request, the Trustee
shall promptly request from the Certificate Registrar a current list as provided
above, and shall afford such applicants access to such list promptly upon
receipt.
Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding such list, agrees with
the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee that neither the Certificate Registrar
nor the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any
such information as to the names and addresses of the Certificateholders
hereunder, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.
(b) No transfer of any Non-Registered Certificate shall be made
unless that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act, and effective registration or qualification under
applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction which does not
require such registration or qualification. In the event a transfer of any
Non-Registered Certificate (other than in connection with the initial issuance
of the Certificates or a transfer of such Non-Registered Certificate by the
Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor and other than a Non-Registered
Certificate which constitutes a Book-Entry Certificate) is to be made without
registration under the Securities Act, the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to
register such transfer unless it receives the following: (i) a certificate from
the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form
attached as Exhibit B-1 hereto; or (ii) a certificate from the Certificateholder
desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached as Exhibit
B-2 hereto and a certificate from such Certificateholder's prospective
transferee substantially in the form attached either as Exhibit B-3 or Exhibit
B-4 hereto; or (iii) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration
under the Securities Act, together with the written certification(s) as to the
facts surrounding such transfer from the Certificateholder desiring to effect
such transfer and/or such Certificateholder's prospective transferee on which
such Opinion of Counsel is based. If a transfer of any interest in any
Non-Registered Certificate that constitutes a Book-Entry Certificate (such as a
Class F Certificate) is to be made without registration under the Securities Act
(other than in connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates or a
transfer of any interest in such Non-Registered Certificate by the Depositor or
any of its Affiliates), then the Certificate Owner desiring to effect such
transfer shall be required to obtain either (i) a certificate from such
Certificate Owner's prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as
Exhibit B-5 hereto or as Exhibit B-6 hereto; or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the
Securities Act (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust or
of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee, the REMIC Administrator or the Certificate Registrar in
their respective capacities as such). None of the Depositor, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any Class of
Non-Registered Certificates under the Securities Act or any other securities law
or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the
transfer of any Non-Registered Certificate or interest therein without
registration or qualification. Any Holder or Certificate Owner of a
Non-Registered Certificate desiring to effect such a transfer shall, and does
hereby agree to, indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, the REMIC Administrator
and the Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if the
transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws.
(c) No transfer of any Non-Registered Certificate or any interest
therein shall be made under any circumstances (i) to any employee benefit plan
or other retirement arrangement, including individual retirement accounts and
annuities, Xxxxx plans and collective investment funds and separate accounts in
which such plans, accounts or arrangements are invested, that is subject to
ERISA or the Code (each, a "Plan"), or (ii) to any Person who is directly or
indirectly purchasing such Certificate or interest therein on behalf of, as
named fiduciary of or as trustee of a Plan, or with "plan assets" within the
meaning of the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C.F.R.
ss.2510.3-101, unless: (x) in the case of any Non-Registered Certificate or
interest therein that is being acquired with "plan assets", the prospective
Transferee provides the Certificate Registrar (or, in the case of a
Non-Registered Certificate that constitutes a Book-Entry Certificate, the
Certificate Owner that desires to effect the transfer) with a certification to
the effect that the purchase, continued holding and transfer of such Certificate
or interest therein is exempt from the prohibited transaction provisions of
Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Sections I and III of
Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60 or under Section 401(c) of
ERISA; or (y) in the case of any Non-Registered Certificate that is held as a
Definitive Certificate, the prospective Transferee provides the Certificate
Registrar with a certification of facts and an Opinion of Counsel, obtained at
the expense of such prospective Transferee, which establish to the satisfaction
of the Certificate Registrar that such transfer will not result in a violation
of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, will not result in the
imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject
the Trustee, Master Servicer or Special Servicer to any obligation in addition
to those undertaken in this Agreement. Each Person who acquires any Certificate
(including, without limitation, a Registered Certificate) or interest therein
shall (in all cases, in the case of a Registered Certificate, and only if such
Person shall not have delivered the Opinion of Counsel and/or one of the
certifications referred to in the preceding sentence, in the case of a
Non-Registered Certificate) be deemed to have certified that: (i) it is neither
a Plan nor any Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Certificate
or interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with
assets of a Plan, or (ii) alternatively, that the purchase, continued holding
and transfer of such Certificate or interest therein is exempt from the
prohibited transaction provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of
the Code under Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 90-88 or PTE 93-31,
Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 or Section 401(c) of ERISA.
(d) (i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest
in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of
such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions
and to have irrevocably authorized the Trustee under clause (ii)(A) below to
deliver payments to a Person other than such Person and to have irrevocably
authorized the Trustee under clause (ii)(B) below to negotiate the terms of any
mandatory sale and to execute all instruments of Transfer and to do all other
things necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each Person
acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject
to the following provisions:
(A) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted
Transferee and a United States Person and shall promptly
notify the Trustee and the REMIC Administrator of any change
or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee or
United States Person.
(B) In connection with any proposed Transfer of any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate (other than in
connection with the initial issuance thereof or the transfer
thereof among the Depositor and its Affiliates), the
Certificate Registrar shall require delivery to it, and shall
not register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate until
its receipt of, an affidavit and agreement substantially in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 (a "Transfer Affidavit
and Agreement") from the proposed Transferee, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar,
representing and warranting, among other things, that such
Transferee is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring
its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the
subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or
agent for any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, that
for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee,
that it is a United States Person and that it has reviewed the
provisions of this Section 5.02(d) and agrees to be bound by
them.
(C) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit
and Agreement by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above,
if the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the
proposed Transferee is not both a Permitted Transferee and a
United States Person, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in
a Residual Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be
effected.
(D) Except in connection with the initial issuance of
the Residual Certificates or any transfer thereof among the
Depositor and its Affiliates, each Person holding or acquiring
any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree
(1) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any
prospective Transferee to whom such Person attempts to
transfer its Ownership Interest in such Residual Certificate
and (2) not to transfer its Ownership Interest in such
Residual Certificate unless it provides to the Certificate
Registrar a certificate substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit C-2 stating that, among other things, it has
no actual knowledge that such prospective Transferee is not a
Permitted Transferee and a United States Person.
(E) Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership
Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Trustee and
the REMIC Administrator written notice that it is a
"pass-through interest holder" within the meaning of temporary
Treasury regulation Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately
upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate, if it is, or is holding an Ownership Interest in
a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a "pass-through interest
holder".
(ii) (A) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a
Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(d), then the last preceding Holder of such Residual Certificate
that was in compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.02(d)
shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as
Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such
Transfer of such Residual Certificate. None of the Trustee, the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC Administrator or
the Certificate Registrar shall be under any liability to any Person
for any registration of Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is
in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(d) or for making any
payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking
any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of
this Agreement.
(B) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual
Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(d)
and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of
the Holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause
(ii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the
Trustee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cause the
transfer of such Residual Certificate to a Permitted Transferee
selected by the Trustee on such terms as the Trustee may choose, and
the Trustee shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of
such discretion. Such Permitted Transferee shall promptly endorse
and deliver such Residual Certificate in accordance with the
instructions of the Trustee. Such Permitted Transferee may be the
Trustee itself or any Affiliate of the Trustee.
(iii) The REMIC Administrator shall make available to the Internal
Revenue Service and those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions all
information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the
Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person
who is not a Permitted Transferee or a United States Person, including the
information described in Treasury regulations sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and
1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the "excess inclusions" of such Residual
Certificate and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real
estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or
organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its record holders at
any time any Person which is not a Permitted Transferee. The Person
holding such Ownership Interest shall be responsible for the reasonable
compensation of the REMIC Administrator for providing such information.
(iv) The provisions of this Section 5.02(d) set forth prior to this
subsection (iv) may be modified, added to or eliminated, provided that
there shall have been delivered to the Trustee and the REMIC Administrator
the following:
(A) written notification from [each] Rating Agency to the
effect that the modification of, addition to or elimination of
such provisions will not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade
its then-current rating of any Class of Certificates; and
(B) an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory
to the Trustee and the REMIC Administrator, to the effect that
such modification of, addition to or elimination of such
provisions will not cause either REMIC I or REMIC II to (x)
cease to qualify as a REMIC or (y) be subject to an
entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Residual
Certificate to a Person which is not a Permitted Transferee,
or cause a Person other than the prospective Transferee to be
subject to a REMIC-related tax caused by the Transfer of a
Residual Certificate to a Person which is not a Permitted
Transferee. Such Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the
expense of the Trust, the Trustee or the REMIC Administrator.
(e) Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Certificate at the offices of the Certificate
Registrar maintained for such purpose, the Trustee shall execute and the
Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of authorized
denominations of the same Class of a like aggregate Percentage Interest.
(f) At the option of any Holder, its Certificates may be exchanged
for other Certificates of authorized denominations of the same Class of a like
aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at the offices of the Certificate Registrar maintained for such
purpose. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee
shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver the
Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive.
(g) Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or
exchange shall (if so required by the Certificate Registrar) be duly endorsed
by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof
or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
(h) No service charge shall be imposed for any transfer or exchange
of Certificates, but the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
(i) Subsequent to the initial issuance of the Certificates, the
Trustee shall be responsible for the preparation of physical Certificates in
connection with any transfer or exchange; provided that the correct form of
Certificate of each Class shall be provided by the Depositor to the Trustee on
diskette on or about the Closing Date. All Certificates surrendered for transfer
and exchange shall be physically canceled by the Certificate Registrar, and the
Certificate Registrar shall hold or destroy such canceled Certificates in
accordance with its standard procedures.
(j) The Certificate Registrar shall be required to provide the
Depositor and the REMIC Administrator with an updated copy of the Certificate
Register on or about January 1 of each year, commencing __________ 1, 200__, and
shall be required to provide the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or the REMIC Administrator with an updated copy of the Certificate
Register at other times promptly upon written request therefor.
(k) If a Person is acquiring any Non-Registered Certificate or
interest therein as a fiduciary or agent for one or more accounts, such Person
shall be required to deliver to the Certificate Registrar (or, in the case of a
Book-Entry Certificate, to the Certificate Owner that is transferring such
interest) a certification to the effect that, and such other evidence as may be
reasonably required by the Trustee (or such Certificate Owner) to confirm that,
it has (i) sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and (ii)
full power to make the acknowledgments, representations, warranties,
certification and agreements with respect to each such account as set forth in
subsections (b), (c) and (d), as applicable, of this Section 5.02.
SECTION 5.03 Book-Entry Certificates.
(a) The Registered Certificates and the Class F Certificates shall,
in the case of each Class thereof, initially be issued as one or more
Certificates registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and, except
as provided in subsection (c) below, transfer of such Certificates may not be
registered by the Certificate Registrar unless such transfer is to a successor
Depository that agrees to hold such Certificates for the respective Certificate
Owners with Ownership Interests therein. Such Certificate Owners shall hold and
transfer their respective Ownership Interests in and to such Certificates
through the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided in
subsection (c) below, shall not be entitled to fully registered, physical
Certificates ("Definitive Certificates") in respect of such Ownership Interests.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in
the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures
established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing each
such Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall only transfer the
Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it
represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with
the Depository's normal procedures. Neither the Certificate Registrar nor the
Trustee shall have any responsibility to monitor or restrict the transfer of
Ownership Interests in Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the
Depository.
(b) The Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Trustee, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC Administrator and the Certificate
Registrar may for all purposes, including the making of payments due on the
Book-Entry Certificates, deal with the Depository as the authorized
representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to such Certificates for
the purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The
rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates shall
be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate
Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such
Certificate Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the
Depository as Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates with respect to any
particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect
to different Certificate Owners. The Trustee may establish a reasonable record
date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by
Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.
If any party hereto requests from the Depository a list of the Depository
Participants in respect of any Class or Classes of the Book-Entry Certificates,
the cost thereof shall be borne by the party on whose behalf such request is
made (but in no event shall any such cost be borne by the Trustee).
(c) If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to
properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to any Class of the
Book-Entry Certificates, and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified
successor, or (ii) the Depositor at its option advises the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Depository with respect to any Class of the Book-Entry
Certificates, the Certificate Registrar shall notify all affected Certificate
Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the
availability of Definitive Certificates to such Certificate Owners requesting
the same. Upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar of any Class of the
Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by registration
instructions for registration of transfer, the Trustee shall execute, and the
Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, the appropriate Definitive
Certificates to the Certificate Owners identified in such instructions. None of
the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee, the REMIC Administrator or the Certificate
Registrar shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.
Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates for purposes of evidencing
ownership of any Class of Registered Certificates, the registered holders of
such Definitive Certificates shall be recognized as Certificateholders
hereunder and, accordingly, shall be entitled directly to receive payments
on, to exercise Voting Rights with respect to, and to transfer and exchange such
Definitive Certificates.
SECTION 5.04 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate
Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered
to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may
reasonably be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the
absence of actual notice to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate, a new Certificate of the same Class and like Percentage Interest.
Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any
other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership in the applicable REMIC created hereunder, as if originally issued,
whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any
time.
SECTION 5.05 Persons Deemed Owners.
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the
Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Trustee, the REMIC Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and any agents
of any of them may treat the person in whose name any Certificate is registered
as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions
pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the
Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Trustee, the REMIC Administrator, the Certificate Registrar or any agent of
any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
SECTION 5.06 Certification by Certificate Owners.
(a) Each Certificate Owner is hereby deemed by virtue of its
acquisition of an Ownership Interest in the Book-Entry Certificates to agree to
comply with the applicable transfer requirements of Sections 5.02(b) and
5.02(c).
(b) To the extent that under the terms of this Agreement, it is
necessary to determine whether any Person is a Certificate Owner, the Trustee
shall make such determination based on a certificate of such Person which shall
specify, in reasonable detail satisfactory to the Trustee, the Class and
Certificate Principal Balance or Certificate Notional Amount, as the case may
be, of the Book-Entry Certificate beneficially owned, the value of such Person's
interest in such Certificate and any intermediaries through which such Person's
Ownership Interest in such Book-Entry Certificate is held; provided, however,
that the Trustee shall not knowingly recognize such Person as a Certificate
Owner if such Person, to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee,
acquired its Ownership Interest in a Book-Entry Certificate in violation of
Section 5.02(b) and/or Section 5.02(c), or if such Person's certification that
it is a Certificate Owner is in direct conflict with information obtained by the
Trustee from the Depository, Depository Participants, and/or indirect
participating brokerage firms for which a Depository Participant acts as agent,
with respect to the identity of a Certificate Owner. The Trustee shall exercise
its reasonable discretion in making any determination under this Section 5.06(b)
and shall afford any Person providing information with respect to its beneficial
ownership of any Certificates an opportunity to resolve any discrepancies
between the information provided and any other information available to the
Trustee.
ARTICLE VI
THE DEPOSITOR, THE MORTGAGE LOAN SELLER, THE MASTER SERVICER,
THE SPECIAL SERVICER AND THE REMIC ADMINISTRATOR
SECTION 6.01 Liability of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan
Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
and the REMIC Administrator.
The Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall be liable in accordance
herewith only to the extent of the respective obligations specifically imposed
upon and undertaken by the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer and the REMIC Administrator herein.
SECTION 6.02 Merger, Consolidation or Conversion of the
Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
or the REMIC Administrator.
Subject to the following paragraph, the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan
Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the REMIC Administrator
each will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a
corporation or other business organization under the laws of the jurisdiction of
its organization, and each will obtain and preserve its qualification to do
business as a foreign corporation or otherwise in each jurisdiction in which
such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.
The Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer and the REMIC Administrator each may be merged or consolidated
with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets
(which, as to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, may be limited to
all or substantially all of its assets relating to the business of mortgage loan
servicing) to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator shall be a party, or
any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan
Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator,
shall be the successor of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as the case may be,
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding; provided, however, that no successor or surviving Person shall
succeed to the rights of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, or the
Mortgage Loan Seller unless such succession will not result in any withdrawal,
downgrade or qualification of the rating then assigned by [either] Rating Agency
to any Class of Certificates (as confirmed in writing).
SECTION 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the REMIC Administrator and Others.
None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the REMIC Administrator or any director, officer, employee or agent of any of
the foregoing shall be under any liability to the Trust or the
Certificateholders for any action taken, or not taken, in good faith pursuant to
this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this
provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the REMIC Administrator or any such other Person against any breach of
a representation or warranty made herein, or against any expense or liability
specifically required to be borne thereby pursuant to the terms hereof, or
against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of obligations or duties
hereunder, or by reason of negligent disregard of such obligations and duties.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC
Administrator and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the
foregoing may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie,
is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC
Administrator and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the
foregoing shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust against any loss,
liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to
this Agreement, the Certificates or any asset of the Trust, other than any loss,
liability or expense: (i) specifically required to be borne by such Person
pursuant to the terms hereof, including, without limitation, Section 10.01(h);
(ii) incidental to the performance of obligations and duties hereunder,
including, without limitation, in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, the prosecution of an enforcement action in respect of any specific
Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense
shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement); or (iii) which was
incurred in connection with claims against such party resulting from (A) any
breach of a representation or warranty made herein by such party, (B) willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of obligations or duties
hereunder by such party, or from negligent disregard of such obligations or
duties, or (C) any violation by such party of any state or federal securities
law. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the
REMIC Administrator shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or
defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties
under this Agreement and, except in the case of a legal action contemplated by
Section 3.22, in its opinion does not involve it in any ultimate expense or
liability; provided, however, that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator may in its discretion undertake any
such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to the
enforcement and/or protection of the rights and duties of the parties hereto and
the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal
expenses and costs of such action, and any liability resulting therefrom, shall
be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer and the REMIC Administrator each shall be
entitled to the direct payment of such expenses or to be reimbursed therefor
from the Certificate Account as provided in Section 3.05(a).
SECTION 6.04 Master Servicer, Special Servicer and
REMIC Administrator Not to Resign.
None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator shall be permitted to resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it, except (i) upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of
such appointment by, a successor thereto which is reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee and the receipt by the Trustee of written confirmation from each and
every Rating Agency to the effect that such resignation and appointment will not
result in the downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of any rating then assigned
by such Rating Agency to any Class of Certificates, or (ii) upon determination
that such obligations and duties hereunder are no longer permissible under
applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any
other activities carried on by it, the other activities of the Master Servicer,
Special Servicer or REMIC Administrator, as the case may be, so causing such a
conflict being of a type and nature carried on by the Master Servicer, Special
Servicer or REMIC Administrator, as the case may be, at the date of this
Agreement. Any such determination of the nature described in clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as the case may be, shall be
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect which shall be rendered by
Independent counsel, be addressed and delivered to the Trustee and the Rating
Agencies and be paid for by the resigning party. No such resignation for either
reason shall become effective until the Trustee or other successor shall have
assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the resigning party hereunder.
All costs and expenses of the Trustee and the Trust (including, without
limitation, any costs or expenses of any party hereto reimbursable out of the
Trust Fund) in connection with any such resignation (including, without
limitation, any requisite transfer of servicing) shall be paid for, as incurred,
by the resigning party.
Consistent with the foregoing, none of the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator shall be permitted, except as
expressly provided herein, to assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or
privileges hereunder to any other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or
authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or
obligations to be performed by it hereunder. If, pursuant to any provision
hereof, the duties of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator are transferred to a successor thereto, then, subject to Section
3.22, the entire amount of compensation payable to the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as the case may be, pursuant hereto
shall thereafter be payable to such successor.
SECTION 6.05 Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in
Respect of the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer and the REMIC Administrator
The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the REMIC
Administrator each shall afford the Depositor and the Trustee, upon reasonable
notice, during normal business hours access to all records maintained by the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as the case
may be, in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to such of
its officers as are responsible for such obligations. Upon reasonable request,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the REMIC Administrator each shall
furnish the Depositor and the Trustee with its most recent financial statements
and such other information as it possesses, and which it is not prohibited by
law or, to the extent applicable, binding obligations to third parties with
respect to confidentiality from disclosing, regarding its business, affairs,
property and condition, financial or otherwise. The Depositor may, but is not
obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer and the REMIC Administrator hereunder and may, but is not obligated to,
perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator hereunder or, in

the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator hereunder; provided, however,
that none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of
such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have
any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator and is not obligated
to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the
REMIC Administrator under this Agreement or otherwise.

hereto, by the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the
Voting Rights; or
(vii) any failure on the part of the REMIC Administrator duly to
observe or perform in any material respect any of the covenants or
agreements thereof contained in this Agreement, which failure continues
unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice
of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given
to the REMIC Administrator by any other party hereto, or to the REMIC

(x) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC

of its obligations, or take any corporate action in furtherance of the
foregoing; or
(xii) the Trustee shall have received written notice from either
Rating Agency that the continuation of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer in such capacity would result (or the continuation of the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer in such capacity has resulted) in a
downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of any rating then assigned by such
Rating Agency to any Class of Certificates.
Each Event of Default listed above as items (iv) through (xii) shall constitute
an Event of Default only with respect to the relevant party; provided that if a
single entity acts or any two or more Affiliates act as Master Servicer, Special
Servicer and REMIC Administrator, or in any two or more of the foregoing
capacities, an Event of Default in one capacity (other than an event described
in clause (xii)) will constitute an Event of Default in each such capacity.
(b) If any Event of Default with respect to the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer (in either case, for purposes of this Section 7.01(b), the
"Defaulting Party") shall occur and be continuing, then, and in each and every
such case, so long as the Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the
Depositor or the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights or if the relevant
Event of Default is the one described in clause (xii) of subsection (a) above,
the Trustee shall, terminate, by notice in writing to the Defaulting Party (with
a copy of such notice to each other party hereto), all of the rights and
obligations (accruing from and after such notice) of the Defaulting Party under
this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. From
and after the receipt by the Defaulting Party of such written notice, all
authority and power of the Defaulting Party under this Agreement, whether with
respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the
Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant
to and under this Section, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby
authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense
of the Defaulting Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents
and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things
necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination,
whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage
Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer each agree that, if it is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b),
it shall promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent
to its receipt of the notice of termination) provide the Trustee with all
documents and records reasonably requested thereby to enable the Trustee to
assume the Master Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as the case may be,
functions hereunder, and shall cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the
termination of the Master Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as the case may be,
responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the
transfer within two Business Days to the Trustee for administration by it of all
cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the
Master Servicer to the Certificate Account, the Distribution Account, any
Servicing Account or any Reserve Account (if it is the Defaulting Party) or by
the Special Servicer to the REO Account, the Certificate Account, any Servicing
Account or any Reserve Account (if it is the Defaulting Party) or thereafter be
received with respect to the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties (provided,
however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall, if
terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b), continue to be obligated for or
entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing by or to it under this
Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of
Advances or otherwise, and it and its directors, officers, employees and agents
shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03 notwithstanding
any such termination). All costs and expenses of the Trustee and the Trust
(including, without limitation, any costs and expenses of any party hereto
reimbursable out of the Trust Fund) in connection with the termination of the
Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Section 7.01(b)
(including, without limitation, the requisite transfer of servicing) shall be
paid for, as incurred, by the Defaulting Party.
(c) If any Event of Default with respect to the REMIC Administrator
shall occur and be continuing, then, and in each and every such case, so long as
the Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor or the Trustee
may, and at the written direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at
least 51% of the Voting Rights, the Trustee (or, if the Trustee is also the
REMIC Administrator, the Master Servicer) shall, terminate, by notice in writing
to the REMIC Administrator (with a copy to each of the other parties hereto),
all of the rights and obligations of the REMIC Administrator under this
Agreement. From and after the receipt by the REMIC Administrator of such written
notice (or if the Trustee is also the REMIC Administrator, from and after such
time as another successor appointed as contemplated by Section 7.02 accepts such
appointment), all authority and power of the REMIC Administrator under this
Agreement shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee (or such other successor)
pursuant to and under this Section, and, without limitation, the Trustee (or
such other successor) is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver,
on behalf of and at the expense of the REMIC Administrator, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or
accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such notice of termination. The REMIC Administrator agrees promptly
(and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to its receipt of
the notice of the termination) to provide the Trustee (or, if the Trustee is
also the REMIC Administrator, such other successor appointed as contemplated by
Section 7.02) with all documents and records requested thereby to enable the
Trustee (or such other successor) to assume the REMIC Administrator's functions
hereunder, and to cooperate with the Trustee (or such other successor) in
effecting the termination of the REMIC Administrator's responsibilities and
rights hereunder (provided, however, that the REMIC Administrator shall continue
to be obligated for or entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing by or to
it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, and it and
its directors, officers, employees and agents shall continue to be entitled to
the benefits of Section 6.03 notwithstanding any such termination).
SECTION 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
On and after the time the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or
the REMIC Administrator resigns pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of
Section 6.04 or receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01, the
Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or (unless it has also been acting as such) the REMIC
Administrator, as the case may be, in its capacity as such under this Agreement
and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to
all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising
thereafter placed on the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator, as the case may be, by the terms and provisions hereof,
including, without limitation, if the Master Servicer is the resigning or
terminated party, the Master Servicer's obligation to make P&I Advances;
provided that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by
the Master Servicer's, the Special Servicer's or the REMIC Administrator's, as
the case may be, failure to cooperate or to provide information or monies
required by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee
hereunder. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor shall be liable for any
of the representations and warranties of the resigning or terminated party or
for any losses incurred by the resigning or terminated party pursuant to Section
3.06 hereunder nor shall the Trustee nor any other successor be required to
purchase any Mortgage Loan hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Trustee
shall be entitled to all fees and other compensation which the resigning or
terminated party would have been entitled to for future services rendered if the
resigning or terminated party had continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding
the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it
is unable to so act, or is not approved by each and every Rating Agency as an
acceptable master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be, of
commercial mortgage loans, or if the Holders of Certificates entitled to at
least 51% of the Voting Rights so request in writing to the Trustee, or if the
REMIC Administrator is the resigning or terminated party and the Trustee had
been acting in such capacity, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint, any established and qualified institution as the
successor to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator, as the case may be, hereunder in the assumption of all or any
part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as the case may be, hereunder;
provided that such appointment does not result in the downgrading, qualification
or withdrawal of any rating then assigned by either Rating Agency to any Class
of Certificates (as evidenced by written confirmation thereof from each Rating
Agency). No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or the REMIC Administrator hereunder shall be effective until the
assumption of the successor to such party of all its responsibilities, ___
duties and liabilities hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator hereunder, the
Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with
any such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on or in
respect of the Mortgage Loans or otherwise as it and such successor shall agree;
provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that
permitted the resigning or terminated party hereunder. The Depositor, the
Trustee, such successor and each other party hereto shall take such action,
consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession. Any costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the foregoing
functions under this Agreement (other than the set-up costs of the successor)
shall be borne by the predecessor Master Servicer, Special Servicer or REMIC
Administrator, as applicable, and, if not paid by such predecessor Master
Servicer, Special Servicer or REMIC Administrator within thirty days of its
receipt of an invoice therefor, shall be an expense of the Trust; provided that
such predecessor Master Servicer, Special Servicer or REMIC Administrator shall
reimburse the Trust for any such expense so incurred by the Trust; and provided,
further, that the Trustee shall decide whether and to what extent it is in the
best interest of the Certificateholders to pursue any remedy against any party
obligated to make such reimbursement.
SECTION 7.03 Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon any resignation of the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or the REMIC Administrator pursuant to Section 6.04, any termination of
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator pursuant to
Section 7.01 or any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator pursuant to Section 6.04 or Section
7.02, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders
at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.
(b) Not later than the later of (i) 60 days after the occurrence of
any event which constitutes or, with notice or lapse of time or both, would
constitute an Event of Default and (ii) five days after the Trustee has actual
knowledge, or would be deemed in accordance with Section 8.02(vii) to have
notice of the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to
the other non-defaulting parties hereto and all Certificateholders notice of
such occurrence, unless such default shall have been cured.
SECTION 7.04 Waiver of Events of Default.
The Holders entitled to at least 66-2/3% of the Voting Rights
allocated to each of the Classes of Certificates affected by any Event of
Default hereunder may waive such Event of Default, except that prior to any
waiver of an Event of Default arising from a failure to make P&I Advances, the
Trustee shall be reimbursed all amounts which it has advanced. Upon any such
waiver of an Event of Default, such Event of Default shall cease to exist and
shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.
[Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, for purposes of waiving
any Event of Default pursuant to this Section 7.04, Certificates registered in
the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor (provided that
neither the Depositor nor any Affiliate thereof is the party in respect of which
such Event of Default exists) shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with
respect to the matters described above as they would if any other Person held
such Certificates.]
SECTION 7.05 Additional Remedies of Trustee Upon Event of Default.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such
Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the
rights specified in Section 7.01, shall have the right, in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at
law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect
the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders
(including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and
other proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each
and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no
delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or
remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.
ARTICLE VIII
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
SECTION 8.01 Duties of Trustee.
(a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder and after the curing or waiver of all such Events of Default and
defaults which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only
such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement; provided that it is
herein acknowledged and agreed that the Trustee is at all times acting in a
fiduciary capacity with respect to the Certificateholders. If an Event of
Default hereunder occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of
the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and applicable law, and use
the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man or the
Trustee would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or
its own affairs (whichever standard would be higher). Any permissive right of
the Trustee contained in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.
(b) The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement (other than the Mortgage Files, the review of which
is specifically governed by the terms of Article II), shall examine them to
determine whether they conform in form to the requirements of this Agreement. If
any such instrument is found not to so conform to the requirements of this
Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee shall take such action as it deems
appropriate to have the instrument corrected. The Trustee shall not be
responsible for, but may assume and rely upon, the accuracy and content of any
resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other
instrument furnished by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
or the REMIC Administrator and accepted by the Trustee in good faith, pursuant
to this Agreement.
(c) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) The duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined
solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not
be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in
the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions
furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Agreement;
(ii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of
judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible
Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was
negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
(iii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any
action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the direction of Holders of Certificates entitled to at
least 25% (or, as to any particular matter, any higher percentage as may
be specifically provided for hereunder) of the Voting Rights relating to
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon
the Trustee, under this Agreement.
SECTION 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee
Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) The Trustee may rely upon and shall be protected in acting or
refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer's Certificate,
certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other
paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties;
(ii) The Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of
such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or
omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance therewith;
(iii) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of
the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to make any
investigation of matters arising hereunder or to institute, conduct or
defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request,
order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have
offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs,
expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; the
Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall
have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the
Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder which has not been cured, to exercise such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this Agreement and to use the same degree of care
and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under
the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;
(iv) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action
reasonably taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by
it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred
upon it by this Agreement;
(v) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, and
after the curing of all such Events of Default which may have occurred,
the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or
matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other
paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; provided,
however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of
the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the
making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not
reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the
terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity
against such expense or liability as a condition to taking any such
action;
(vi) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder
or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys-in-fact, provided that the use of any such agent or
attorney-in-fact shall not relieve the Trustee from any its obligations
hereunder, and the Trustee shall remain responsible for all acts and
omissions of any such agent or attorney-in-fact;
(vii) For all purposes under this Agreement, the Trustee shall not
be deemed to have notice of any Event of Default hereunder unless a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless
written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by
the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the
Certificates or this Agreement; and
(viii) The Trustee shall not be responsible for any act or omission
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator
(unless the Trustee is acting as Master Servicer, Special Servicer or
REMIC Administrator, as the case may be) or for any act or omission of the
Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller.
SECTION 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Validity or Sufficiency
of Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than
the representations and warranties of, and the other statements attributed to,
the Trustee in Article II and the certificate of authentication executed by the
Trustee as Certificate Registrar set forth on each outstanding Certificate)
shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as the case
may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The
Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Agreement (other than as specifically set forth in Sections 2.08 and 2.09) or of
any Certificate (other than as to the signature of the Trustee set forth
thereon) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. The Trustee shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the
Certificates issued to it or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the
use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Mortgage Loan
Seller in respect of the assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the Trust, or any
funds deposited in or withdrawn from the Certificate Account or any other
account by or on behalf of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or the REMIC Administrator. The Trustee shall not be responsible for
the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion,
report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC Administrator and accepted by
the Trustee in good faith, pursuant to this Agreement.
SECTION 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, and any agent
of the Trustee may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with, except as
otherwise provided in the definition of Certificateholder, the same rights it
would have if it were not the Trustee or such agent, as the case may be.
SECTION 8.05 Fees of Trustee; Indemnification of Trustee.
(a) The Trustee shall pay to itself on each Distribution Date,
pursuant to Section 3.05(b)(ii), from amounts on deposit in the Distribution
Account, an amount equal to the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date and, to
the extent not previously received, for each prior Distribution Date.
(b) The Trustee and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Trustee shall be entitled to be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust (to
the extent of amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account and the Distribution
Account from time to time) against any loss, liability or expense (including,
without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation, and of investigation,
counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement) arising out of,
or incurred in connection with, any legal actions relating to the exercise and
performance of any of the powers and duties of the Trustee hereunder; provided
that none of the Trustee or any of the other above specified Persons shall be
entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.05(b) for (i) allocable
overhead, (ii) expenses or disbursements incurred or made by or on behalf of the
Trustee in the normal course of the Trustee's performing its routine duties in
accordance with any of the provisions hereof, (iii) any expense or liability
specifically required to be borne thereby pursuant to the terms hereof, or (iv)
any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or negligence in the performance of the Trustee's obligations and duties
hereunder, or by reason of negligent disregard of such obligations or duties, or
as may arise from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the
Trustee made herein. The provisions of this Section 8.05(b) shall survive any
resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee.
SECTION 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.

company, a bank or a banking association: (i) organized and doing business under

Agency, result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any of the
then-current ratings assigned by such Rating Agency to the Certificates). If
such corporation, trust company, bank or banking association publishes reports
of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the
aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then, for the purposes of this
Section 8.06, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation, trust
company, bank or banking association shall be deemed to be its combined capital
and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. No
Person shall become a successor trustee hereunder if the succession of such
Person would result in a qualification, downgrading or withdrawal of any of the
ratings then assigned by the Rating Agencies to the Certificates. In case at any
time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect specified in Section 8.07. The corporation, trust company, bank or
banking association serving as Trustee may have normal banking and trust
relationships with the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the REMIC Administrator and their respective Affiliates.
SECTION 8.07 Resignation and Removal of the Trustee.
(a) The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the
trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the
Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC
Administrator and to all Certificateholders. Upon receiving such notice of
resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor trustee acceptable
to the Master Servicer by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument
shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and to the successor trustee. A copy
of such instrument shall be delivered to the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC Administrator and the
Certificateholders by the Depositor. If no successor trustee shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
(b) If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Depositor or the Master Servicer, or if at any
time the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt
or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be
appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or
of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor
trustee acceptable to the Master Servicer by written instrument, in duplicate,
which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and to the
successor trustee. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Mortgage
Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC Administrator
and the Certificateholders by the Depositor.
(c) The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 33 1/3% of the
Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee
by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or
their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments
shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, one complete set to the Trustee so
removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed; provided that the
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the remaining Certificateholders shall have
been notified; and provided further that other Holders of the Certificates
entitled to a greater percentage of the Voting Rights shall not have objected to
such removal in writing to the Master Servicer and the Depositor within 30 days
of their receipt of notice thereof. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered
to the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Special Servicer, the REMIC
Administrator and the remaining Certificateholders by the Master Servicer.
(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 8.08; and no such resignation or removal of the Trustee
and/or appointment of a successor trustee shall be permitted, unless, as
confirmed in writing by each Rating Agency, such resignation or removal and
appointment would not result in the qualification, downgrading or withdrawal of
the rating assigned by either Rating Agency to any Class of Certificates.
SECTION 8.08 Successor Trustee.
(a) Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan
Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC Administrator and
to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder,
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become
effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally
named as trustee herein. The predecessor trustee shall deliver to the successor
trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it
hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files and related documents and statements at
the time held on its behalf by a Custodian, which Custodian shall become the
agent of the successor trustee), and the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the REMIC Administrator and the
predecessor trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other
things as may reasonably be required to more fully and certainly vest and
confirm in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and
obligations, and to enable the successor trustee to perform its obligations
hereunder. If such predecessor trustee was removed as Trustee under this
Agreement without cause, the cost of any such execution, delivery or action
shall be at the expense of the Trust.
(b) No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in
this Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06.
(c) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as
provided in this Section 8.08, the Master Servicer shall mail notice of the
succession of such trustee hereunder to the Depositor and the
Certificateholders. If the Master Servicer fails to mail such notice within 10
days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor
trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Master
Servicer.
SECTION 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any entity succeeding
to the corporate trust business of the Trustee shall be the successor of the
Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding; provided that the Trustee shall continue to be eligible under
the provisions of Section 8.06. The successor to the Trustee shall promptly
notify in writing each of the other parties hereto, the Certificateholders and
the Rating Agencies of any such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession
to business.
SECTION 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Trust Fund or property securing the same may at the time be located,
the Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and
shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons
approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the
Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title
to the Trust Fund, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of
this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the
Master Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the
Master Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after
the receipt by it of a request to do so, or in case an Event of Default in
respect of the Master Servicer shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or
separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as
a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of
Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be
required under Section 8.08 hereof.
(b) In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate
trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10 all rights, powers, duties and obligations
conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or
as successor to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to
perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Fund or any portion
thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such
separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee.
(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall
be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and
co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and
the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon
its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or
property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the
Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions
of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement
relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection
to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.
(d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute
the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to
the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of
this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or
co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of
its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.
(e) The appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee under this
Section 8.10 shall not relieve the Trustee of its duties, responsibilities or
liabilities hereunder.
SECTION 8.11 Appointment of Custodians.
The Trustee may, with the consent of the Master Servicer, appoint
one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent
for the Trustee; provided that if the Custodian is an Affiliate of the Trustee
such consent of the Master Servicer need not be obtained and the Trustee shall
instead notify the Master Servicer of such appointment. Each Custodian shall be
a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority,
shall have combined capital and surplus (or shall have its performance
guaranteed by an Affiliate with a combined capital and surplus) of at least
$10,000,000, shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it
holds any Mortgage File and shall not be the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller
or any Affiliate of any of them. Each Custodian shall be subject to the same
obligations and standard of care as would be imposed on the Trustee hereunder in
connection with the retention of Mortgage Files directly by the Trustee. The
appointment of one or more Custodians shall not relieve the Trustee from any of
its duties, liabilities or obligations hereunder, and the Trustee shall remain
responsible for all acts and omissions of any Custodian.
SECTION 8.12 Access to Certain Information.
(a) The Trustee shall provide or cause to be provided to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Rating Agencies,
and to the OTS, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance
regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificateholder,
access to the Mortgage Files and any other documentation regarding the Mortgage
Loans and the Trust Fund, that is within its control which may be required by
this Agreement or by applicable law. Such access shall be afforded without
charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business
hours at the offices of the Trustee designated by it.
(b) Promptly following the first sale of any Non-Registered
Certificate to an Independent third party, the Depositor shall provide to the
Trustee ______copies of any private placement memorandum or other disclosure
document used by the Depositor or its Affiliate in connection with the offer and
sale of the Class of Certificates to which such Non-Registered Certificate
belongs. In addition, if any such private placement memorandum or disclosure
document is revised, amended or supplemented at any time following the delivery
thereof to the Trustee, the Depositor promptly shall inform the Trustee of such
event and shall deliver to the Trustee _____ copies of the private placement
memorandum or disclosure document, as revised, amended or supplemented. The
Trustee shall maintain at its Corporate Trust Office and shall on behalf of the
Depositor, upon reasonable advance written notice, make available during normal
business hours for review by each Rating Agency and by any Certificateholder or
any Certificate Owner or any Person identified to the Trustee by a
Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner as a prospective transferee of a
Certificate or interest therein, originals or copies of the following items: (i)
in the case of a Holder or prospective transferee of a Non-Registered
Certificate, any private placement memorandum or other disclosure document
relating to the Class of Certificates to which such Non-Registered Certificate
belongs, in the form most recently provided to the Trustee; and (ii) in all

Mortgaged Property securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan as to which the
environmental testing contemplated by Section 3.09(c) revealed that either of
the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the first sentence thereof
was not satisfied or that any remedial, corrective or other further action
contemplated in such clauses is required (but only for so long as such Mortgaged
Property or the related Mortgage Loan is part of the Trust Fund), and (I) all
documents constituting the Mortgage Files, including, without limitation, any
and all modifications, waivers and amendments of the terms of a Mortgage Loan
entered into by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and delivered to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 3.20 (but, in each case, only for so long as the
related Mortgage Loan is part of the Trust Fund). Copies of any and all of the
foregoing items are to be available from the Trustee upon request; however, the
Trustee shall be permitted to require payment of a sum sufficient to cover the
reasonable costs and expenses of providing such service.
In connection with providing access to or copies of the items
described in the immediately preceding paragraph of this Section 8.12(b), the
Trustee may require, unless the Depositor directs otherwise, (i) in the case of

confidential. All Certificateholders, by acceptance of their Certificates, shall
be deemed to have agreed to keep such information confidential, except to the
extent that the Depositor grants written permission to the contrary.

have no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of any
information so made available or furnished by it in the manner described in the

Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.
Subject to Section 9.02, the Trust and the respective obligations
and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan
Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the REMIC
Administrator (other than the obligations of the Trustee to provide for and make

by or on behalf of the Trustee and required hereunder to be so paid on the
Distribution Date following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase by the
Master Servicer or by any Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class
(other than the Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller) of all Mortgage Loans and
each REO Property remaining in REMIC I at a price (to be calculated by the
Master Servicer and the Trustee as of the close of business on the third
Business Day preceding the date upon which notice of any such purchase is
furnished to Certificateholders pursuant to the third paragraph of this Section
9.01 and as if the purchase was to occur on such Business Day) equal to (A) the
aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans included in REMIC I, plus (B)
the appraised value of each REO Property, if any, included in REMIC I (such
appraisal to be conducted by a Qualified Appraiser selected by the Master
Servicer and approved by the Trustee), minus (C) if such purchase is being made
by the Master Servicer, the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances made by
the Master Servicer, together with any Advance Interest payable to the Master
Servicer in respect of such Advances and any unpaid Master Servicing Fees
remaining outstanding (which items shall be deemed to have been paid or
reimbursed to the Master Servicer in connection with such purchase), and (ii)
the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of
the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I; provided, however,
that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration
of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X.
Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. Xxxxx,
living on the date hereof.
The Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class (other than
the Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller) has the right, and if the Majority
Certificateholder of the Controlling Class fails to exercise such right, the
Master Servicer has the right, to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each
REO Property remaining in REMIC I as contemplated by clause (i) of the preceding
paragraph by giving written notice to the other parties hereto no later than 60
days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the
Master Servicer and any Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class
(other than the Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller) each may so elect to
purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I
only if the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool at the time
of such election is less than 1.0% of the Initial Pool Balance. In the event
that the Master Servicer or any Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling
Class (other than the Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller) elects to purchase
all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I in
accordance with the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer or such Majority
Certificateholder, as applicable, shall deposit in the Distribution Account not

on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, an amount in
immediately available funds equal to the above-described purchase price
(exclusive of any portion thereof payable to any Person other than the

in the Certificate Account). In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer all
amounts required to be transferred to the Distribution Account on such Master
Servicer Remittance Date from the Certificate Account pursuant to the first

been made, the Trustee shall release or cause to be released to the purchaser or
its designee, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall
execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by
the purchaser, as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties remaining in REMIC I.
Notice of any termination shall be given promptly by the Trustee by
letter to Certificateholders and, if not previously notified pursuant to the
preceding paragraph, to the other parties hereto mailed (a) in the event such
notice is given in connection with a purchase by the Master Servicer or any
Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class (other than the Depositor or
the Mortgage Loan Seller) of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property
remaining in REMIC I, not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th
day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the
Certificates or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or
before the 5th day of such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution
Date upon which the Trust will terminate and final payment on the Certificates
will be made, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the
Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable,
payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at
the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein
designated.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates by the
Certificateholders on the Final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute
to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates such
Certificateholder's Percentage Interest of that portion of the Available
Distribution Amount for such date that is allocable to payments on the relevant
Class in accordance with Section 4.01(a).
Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates
of any Class on the Final Distribution Date because of the failure of such
Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside
and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the
appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which
notice has been given pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such
notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to
receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after
the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Trustee, directly or through an agent, shall take such
reasonable steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders
concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate. The
costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such
Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such
second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such
funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any former Holder on any amount
held in trust hereunder. If by the second anniversary of the delivery of such
second notice, all of the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Class R-I Certificateholders shall be entitled to all
unclaimed funds and other assets which remain subject thereto.
SECTION 9.02 Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) In the event the Master Servicer or a Majority Certificateholder
of the Controlling Class (other than the Depositor or the Mortgage Loan Seller)

"prohibited transactions" of REMIC I or REMIC II as defined in Section 860F of
the Code or cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding:

90-day liquidation period in a statement attached to the final Tax Return
for each of REMIC I and REMIC II pursuant to Treasury regulation Section

(iii) at the time of the making of the final payment on the
Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be
distributed or credited, to the Holders of the applicable Class of
Residual Certificates all cash on hand (other than cash retained to meet
claims), and each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall terminate at that time.

case may be, could result in an Adverse REMIC Event with respect to either such
REMIC, unless the REMIC Administrator has received an Opinion of Counsel or an
IRS private letter ruling to the effect that the contemplated action will not
result in an Adverse REMIC Event. None of the other parties hereto shall take
any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the REMIC
Administrator has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of
Counsel or an IRS private letter ruling to the effect that an Adverse REMIC
Event could occur with respect to such action. In addition, prior to taking any
action with respect to REMIC I or REMIC II, or causing REMIC I or REMIC II to
take any action, that is not expressly permitted under the terms of this
Agreement, each of the other parties hereto will consult with the REMIC
Administrator, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur. None of the parties hereto shall take any such
action or cause REMIC I or REMIC II to take any such action as to which the
REMIC Administrator has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could
occur. The REMIC Administrator may consult with counsel or seek an IRS private
letter ruling to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne:
(i) if such action that is not expressly permitted by this Agreement would be of
a material benefit to or otherwise in the best interests of the
Certificateholders as a whole, by the Trust and shall be paid by the Trustee at
the direction of the REMIC Administrator out of amounts on deposit in the
Distribution Account; and (ii) otherwise by the party seeking to take the action
not permitted by this Agreement. Without limiting the respective duties and
obligations of the parties hereto, the parties hereto may act hereunder in
reliance on any IRS private letter ruling so obtained by the REMIC
Administrator.
(h) In the event that any tax is imposed on REMIC I or REMIC II,
including, without limitation, "prohibited transactions" taxes as defined in
Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, any tax on "net income from foreclosure
property" as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, any taxes on contributions
to REMIC I or REMIC II after the Startup Day pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the
Code, and any other tax imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of
state or local tax laws (other than any tax permitted to be incurred by the
Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.17(a)), such tax, together with all
incidental costs and expenses (including, without limitation, penalties and
reasonable attorneys' fees), shall be charged to and paid by: (i) the REMIC
Administrator, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the REMIC
Administrator of any of its obligations under this Article X; (ii) the Trustee,
if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its
obligations under this Article X; (iii) the Master Servicer, if such tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations
under Article III or this Article X; (iv) the Special Servicer, if such tax
arises out of or results from a breach by the Special Servicer of any of its
obligations under Article III or this Article X; or (v) the Trust in all other
instances. Any tax permitted to be incurred by the Special Servicer pursuant to
Section 3.17(a) shall be charged to and paid by the Trust. Any such amounts
payable by the Trust in respect of taxes shall be paid by the Trustee at the
direction of the REMIC Administrator out of amounts on deposit in the
Distribution Account.
(i) The REMIC Administrator and, to the extent that records are
maintained thereby in the normal course of its business, each of the other
parties hereto shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and
records with respect to each of REMIC I and REMIC II on a calendar year and on
an accrual basis.
(j) Following the Startup Day therefor, the Trustee shall not accept
any contributions of assets to REMIC I or REMIC II unless it shall have received
an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to cause such
contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in such REMIC will
not cause: (i) such REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding; or (ii) the imposition of any tax on such REMIC
under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and
local law or ordinances.
(k) None of the REMIC Administrator, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the Trustee shall consent to or, to the extent it is within
the control of such Person, permit: (i) the sale or disposition of any of the
Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (A) a breach of any representation or
warranty of the Mortgage Loan Seller regarding the Mortgage Loans or as
otherwise provided for in Section 2.03, (B) the foreclosure, default or imminent
default of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the sale or other
disposition of a Mortgaged Property acquired by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, (C)
the bankruptcy of REMIC I or REMIC II, or (D) the termination of the Trust
pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement); (ii) the sale or disposition of any
investments in the Certificate Account or the REO Account for gain; or (iii) the
acquisition of any assets for the Trust Fund (other than a Mortgaged Property
acquired through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise in
respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan and other than Permitted Investments
acquired in connection with the investment of funds in the Certificate Account
or the REO Account); in any event unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel
(from and at the expense of the party seeking to cause such sale, disposition,
or acquisition) to the effect that such sale, disposition, or acquisition will
not cause: (x) REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding; or (y) the imposition of any tax on REMIC
I or REMIC II under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of
federal, state and local law or ordinances.
(l) Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.17(a), none of the
REMIC Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee
shall enter into any arrangement by which REMIC I or REMIC II will receive a fee
or other compensation for services or, to the extent it is within the control of
such Person, permit REMIC I or REMIC II to receive any income from assets other
than "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or
"permitted investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code. At all
times as may be required by the Code, the REMIC Administrator shall make
reasonable efforts to ensure that substantially all of the assets of REMIC I and
REMIC II will consist of "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3)
of the Code and "permitted investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the
Code.
SECTION 10.02 Depositor, Master Servicer, Special
Servicer and Trustee to Cooperate with
REMIC Administrator.
(a) The Depositor shall provide or cause to be provided to the REMIC
Administrator, within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, all information or
data that the REMIC Administrator reasonably determines to be relevant for tax
purposes as to the valuations and issue prices of the Certificates, including,
without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash
flow of the Certificates.
(b) The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee shall
each furnish such reports, certifications and information, and access to such
books and records maintained thereby, as may relate to the Certificates or the
Trust Fund and as shall be reasonably requested by the REMIC Administrator in
order to enable it to perform its duties hereunder.
SECTION 10.03 Fees of the REMIC Administrator.
In the event the Trustee and the REMIC Administrator are not the
same Person, the Trustee covenants and agrees to pay to the REMIC Administrator
from time to time, and the REMIC Administrator shall be entitled to, reasonable
compensation (as set forth in a written agreement between the Trustee and the
REMIC Administrator) for all services rendered by it in the exercise and
performance of any of the obligations and duties of the REMIC Administrator
hereunder.
SECTION 10.04 Use of Agents.
The REMIC Administrator may execute any of its obligations and
duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact
consented to by the Trustee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;
provided that the REMIC Administrator shall not be relieved of its liabilities,
duties and obligations hereunder by reason of the use of any such agent or
attorney-in-fact.
ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
SECTION 11.01 Amendment.
(a) This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the mutual
agreement of the parties hereto, without the consent of any of the
Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity, (ii) to correct, modify or
supplement any provision herein which may be defective or may be inconsistent
with any other provision herein, (iii) to add any other provisions with respect
to matters or questions arising hereunder which shall not be inconsistent with
the provisions hereof, (iv) to relax or eliminate any requirement hereunder
imposed by the REMIC Provisions if the REMIC Provisions are amended or clarified
such that any such requirement may be relaxed or eliminated; (v) if such
amendment, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee and
the REMIC Administrator, is reasonably necessary to comply with any requirements
imposed by the Code or any successor or amendatory statute or any temporary or
final regulation, revenue ruling, revenue procedure or other written official
announcement or interpretation relating to federal income tax laws or any such
proposed action which, if made effective, would apply retroactively to REMIC I
or REMIC II at least from the effective date of such amendment, or would be
necessary to avoid the occurrence of a prohibited transaction or to reduce the
incidence of any tax that would arise from any actions taken with respect to the
operation of REMIC I or REMIC II; (vi) to modify, add to or eliminate any
provisions of Section 5.02(d)(i), (ii) and (iii) as provided in Section
5.02(d)(iv); or (vii) for any other purpose; provided that such amendment (other
than any amendment for the specific purposes described in clauses (v) and (vi)
above) shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel obtained by or delivered
to the Trustee, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder without such Certificateholder's written consent; and provided
further that such amendment (other than any amendment for any of the specific
purposes described in clauses (i) through (vi) above) shall not result in a
downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of any rating then assigned to any Class
of Certificates by either Rating Agency (as evidenced by written confirmation to
such effect from each Rating Agency obtained by or delivered to the Trustee).
(b) This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
mutual agreement of the parties hereto, with the consent of the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights allocated to the
affected Classes, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no
such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing
of, payments received or advanced on the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties
which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the written
consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of the Holders of any Class of Certificates in a manner
other than as described in clause (b)(i) without the written consent of the
Holders of all Certificates of such Class, or (iii) modify the provisions of
this Section 11.01 without the written consent of the Holders of all
Certificates then outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to
this Section 11.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor, the
Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any of their
respective Affiliates shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with respect
to matters described above as they would if any other Person held such
Certificates.
(c) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement,
neither the Trustee nor the REMIC Administrator shall consent to any amendment
to this Agreement unless it shall first have obtained or been furnished with an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment or the exercise of any
power granted to any party hereto in accordance with such amendment will not
result in the imposition of a tax on REMIC I or REMIC II pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions or cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
time that any Certificates are outstanding.
(d) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment, the Trustee
shall furnish a copy of the amendment to each Certificateholder.
(e) It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders
under this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the
substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the
authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to
such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe; provided that such
consents shall be in writing.
(f) The Trustee may but shall not be obligated to enter into any
amendment pursuant to this Section that affects its rights, duties and
immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.
(g) The cost of any Opinion of Counsel to be delivered pursuant to
Section 11.01(a) or (c) shall be borne by the Person seeking the related
amendment, except that if the Trustee requests any amendment of this Agreement
in furtherance of the rights and interests of Certificateholders, the cost of
any Opinion of Counsel required in connection therewith pursuant to Section
11.01(a) or (c) shall be payable out of the Distribution Account.
SECTION 11.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
(a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is
subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property
records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or
all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other
appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be
effected by the Master Servicer at the expense of the Trust on direction by the
Trustee, but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (the
reasonable cost of which may be paid out of the Distribution Account) to the
effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests
of the Certificateholders.
(b) For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this
Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be
executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which
counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall
constitute but one and the same instrument.
SECTION 11.03 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.
(a) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not
operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor entitle such
Certificateholder's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the
Trust, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the
parties hereto or any of them.
(b) No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as
expressly provided for herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation
and management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor
shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates,
be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as
partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under
any liability to any third party by reason of any action taken by the parties to
this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.
(c) No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement or any Mortgage
Loan, unless, with respect to any suit, action or proceeding upon or under or
with respect to this Agreement, such Holder previously shall have given to the
Trustee a written notice of default hereunder, and of the continuance thereof,
as hereinbefore provided, and (except in the case of a default by the Trustee)
the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall
have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or
proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the
Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses
and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days
after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have
neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding. It is
understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with
every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of
Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority or
preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under
this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable
and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement
of the provisions of this Section 11.03(c), each and every Certificateholder and
the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.
SECTION 11.04 Governing Law.
This Agreement and the Certificates shall be construed in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made
and to be performed in said State, and the obligations, rights and remedies of
the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.
