This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (this "Agreement"), is dated and
effective as of March 29, 2001, between GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation as
seller (the "Seller") and GMAC Commercial Mortgage Securities, Inc. as purchaser
(the "Purchaser").
The Seller desires to sell, assign, transfer and otherwise convey to
the Purchaser, and the Purchaser desires to purchase, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth below, the multifamily and commercial mortgage loan (the
"Mortgage Loan" or the "GSMC/GMACCM Mortgage Loan") identified on the schedule
annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the "Mortgage Loan Schedule"). The GSMC/GMACCM
Mortgage Loan was purchased by the Seller from Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Mortgage Company
("GSMC") pursuant to, and for the consideration described in, the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 29, 2001 (the "GSMC/GMACCM Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement"), between the Seller and GSMC. Certain other multifamily and
commercial mortgage loans will be purchased by the Purchaser from (i) German
American Capital Corporation ("GACC"), pursuant to, and for the consideration
described in, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of Xxxxx 00, 0000

are collectively referred to as the "Mortgage Loan Sellers."
It is expected that the Mortgage Loan will be transferred, together
with other multifamily and commercial mortgage loans to a trust fund (the "Trust
Fund") to be formed by the Purchaser, beneficial ownership of which will be
evidenced by a series of mortgage pass-through certificates (the
"Certificates"). Certain classes of the Certificates will be rated by Fitch,
Inc. and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a Division of the XxXxxx-Xxxx
Companies, Inc. (together, the "Rating Agencies"). Certain classes of the
Certificates (the "Registered Certificates") will be registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Trust Fund will
be created and the Certificates will be issued pursuant to a pooling and
servicing agreement to be dated as of April 1, 2001 (the "Pooling and Servicing
Agreement"), among the Purchaser as depositor, GMAC Commercial Mortgage
Corporation as master servicer (in such capacity, the "Master Servicer") and
special servicer (in such capacity, the "Special Servicer") and Xxxxx Fargo Bank
Minnesota, N.A., as trustee (in such capacity, the "Trustee"). Capitalized terms
not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date.
The Purchaser intends to sell the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class B, Class
C and Class D Certificates to Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co. and Deutsche Banc Alex. Xxxxx
Inc. (together, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated
the date hereof (the "Underwriting Agreement"). The Purchaser intends to sell
the Class X-1, Class X-2, Class E, Class F and Class G Certificates to Xxxxxxx,
Sachs & Co. and Deutsche Banc Alex. Xxxxx Inc. (in such capacity, each an
"Initial Purchaser") and the Class H, Class J, Class K, Class L, Class M, Class
N, Class O and Class P Certificates to Commercial Asset Trading, Inc. (in such
capacity, an "Initial Purchaser") pursuant to two certificate purchase
agreements, each dated the date hereof (the "Certificate Purchase Agreements").
The Purchaser intends to sell the Class R-I, Class R-II and Class R-III
Certificates to Xxxxxxx, Sachs & Co. (in such capacity, an "Initial Purchaser").
The Class X-1, Class X-2, Class E, Class F, Class G, Class H, Class J, Class K,
Class L, Class M, Class N, Class O, Class P, Class R-I, Class R-II and Class
R-III Certificates are collectively referred to as the "Non-Registered

Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Agreement to Purchase.
The Seller agrees to sell, assign, transfer and otherwise convey to the
Purchaser, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase, the Mortgage Loan. The purchase
and sale of the Mortgage Loan shall take place on April 5, 2001 or such other
date as shall be mutually acceptable to the parties hereto (the "Closing Date").
The "Cut-off Date" with respect to the Mortgage Loan is the Due Date for such
Mortgage Loan in April 2001. As of the close of business on their respective
Cut-off Dates (which Cut-off Dates may occur after the Closing Date), the
Mortgage Loan will have an aggregate principal balance (the "Aggregate Cut-off
Date Balance"), after application of all payments of principal due thereon on or
before such date, whether or not received, of $17,469,725 subject to a variance
of plus or minus 5%. The purchase price for the Mortgage Loan shall be
determined by the parties pursuant to an agreed upon term sheet.
SECTION 2. Conveyance of Mortgage Loan.
(a) Effective as of the Closing Date, subject only to receipt by the
Seller of the purchase price referred to in Section 1 hereof (exclusive of any
applicable holdback for transaction expenses), the Seller does hereby sell,
transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without
recourse, all the right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the Mortgage
Loan identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as of such date, including all
interest and principal received or receivable by the Seller on or with respect
to the Mortgage Loan after the Cut-off Date for such Mortgage Loan, together
with all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any
related title, hazard, or other insurance policies and any escrow, reserve or
other comparable accounts related to the Mortgage Loan. The Purchaser shall be
entitled to (and, to the extent received by or on behalf of the Seller, the
Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to or at the direction of the
Purchaser) all scheduled payments of principal and interest due on the Mortgage
Loan after its Cut-off Date, and all other recoveries of principal and interest
collected thereon after such Cut-off Date. All scheduled payments of principal
and interest due thereon on or before the Cut-off Date for the Mortgage Loan and
collected after such Cut-off Date shall belong to the Seller.

(b) In connection with the Seller's assignment pursuant to subsection
(a) above, the Seller hereby agrees that, at least five (5) Business Days before
the Closing Date, it shall have delivered, or caused to be delivered, to and
deposited with the Trustee, the Mortgage File (as described on Exhibit B hereto)
for the Mortgage Loan so assigned to the extent that such Mortgage File was
delivered to the Seller by GSMC. On the Closing Date, upon notification from the
Seller that the purchase price referred to in Section 1 (exclusive of any
applicable holdback for transaction expenses) has been received by the Seller,
the Trustee shall be authorized to release to the Purchaser or its designee the
Mortgage File in the Trustee's possession relating to the Mortgage Loan.
(c) All documents and records in the Seller's possession (or under its
control) relating to the Mortgage Loan that are not required to be a part of a
Mortgage File in accordance with Exhibit B (all such other documents and
records, the "Servicing File"), together with all escrow payments, reserve funds
and other comparable funds in the possession of the Seller (or under its
control) with respect to the Mortgage Loan, shall (unless they are held by a
sub-servicer that shall, as of the Closing Date, begin acting on behalf of the
Master Servicer pursuant to a written agreement between such parties) be
delivered by the Seller (or its agent) to the Purchaser (or its designee) no
later than the Closing Date. If a sub-servicer shall, as of the Closing Date,
begin acting on behalf of the Master Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan
pursuant to a written agreement between such parties, the Seller shall deliver a
copy of the related Servicing File to the Master Servicer.
(d) The Seller's records will reflect the transfer of the Mortgage Loan
to the Purchaser as a sale.
SECTION 3. Examination of Mortgage Loan Files and Due Diligence Review.
The Seller shall reasonably cooperate with any examination of the
Mortgage Files and Servicing Files that maybe undertaken by or on behalf of the
Purchaser. The fact that the Purchaser has conducted or has failed to conduct
any partial or complete examination of the Mortgage Files and/or Servicing Files
shall not affect the Purchaser's right to pursue any remedy available in equity
or at law for a breach of the Seller's representations, warranties and covenants
set forth in or contemplated by Section 4.
SECTION 4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Seller.
(a) The Seller hereby makes, as of the Closing Date (or as of such
other date specifically provided in the particular representation or warranty),
to and for the benefit of the Purchaser, and its successors and assigns
(including, without limitation, the Trustee and the holders of the
Certificates), each of the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit C
with respect to the Mortgage Loan, with such changes or modifications as may be
permitted or required by the Rating Agencies.

extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of each Mortgage Loan and to
perform its obligations under this Agreement.
(ii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller, and
the performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement by the Seller,
will not violate the Seller's organizational documents or constitute a default
(or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a
default) under, or result in the breach of, any material agreement or other
instrument to which it is a party or which is applicable to it or any of its
assets, in each case which materially and adversely affect the ability of the
Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(iii) The Seller has the full power and authority to enter into and
consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, has duly authorized
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and has duly executed
and delivered this Agreement.
(iv) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
by the Purchaser, constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of the
Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof,
subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and
other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, (B) general
principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law, and (C) public policy considerations underlying
the securities laws, to the extent that such public policy considerations limit
the enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement that purport to provide
indemnification for securities laws liabilities.
(v) The Seller is not in violation of, and its execution and delivery
of this Agreement and its performance and compliance with the terms of this
Agreement will not constitute a violation of, any law, any order or decree of
any court or arbiter, or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state
or local governmental or regulatory authority, which violation, in the Seller's
good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to affect materially and adversely
either the ability of the Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement
or the financial condition of the Seller.
(vi) No litigation is pending with regard to which Seller has received
service of process or, to the best of the Seller's knowledge, threatened against

judgment, could reasonably be expected to prohibit the Seller from entering into
this Agreement or materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller to
perform its obligations under this Agreement.
(vii) The Seller has not dealt with any broker, investment banker,
agent or other person, other than the Purchaser, the Underwriters, the Initial
Purchasers and their respective affiliates, that may be entitled to any

Securities Act or any state securities law relating to or in connection with the
issuance of the Certificates or require registration or qualification pursuant
to the Securities Act or any state securities law of any Certificate not
otherwise intended to be a Registered Certificate. In addition, the Seller will
not act, nor has it authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in any
manner set forth in the foregoing sentence with respect to any of the
Certificates or interests therein. For purposes of this paragraph 4(b)(viii),
the term "similar security" shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any

Memorandum, when read together with the other information specified therein as
being available for review by investors) omit to state any material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading.

filing with, or notice to, any governmental authority or court is required,
under federal or state law (including, with respect to any bulk sale laws), for
the execution, delivery and performance of or compliance by the Seller with this
Agreement, or the consummation by the Seller of any transaction contemplated
hereby, other than (1) the filing or recording of financing statements,
instruments of assignment and other similar documents necessary in connection
with Seller's sale of the Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser, (2) such consents,
approvals, authorizations, qualifications, registrations, filings or notices as
have been obtained or made and (3) where the
5
lack of such consent, approval, authorization, qualification, registration,
filing or notice would not have a material adverse effect on the performance by
the Seller under this Agreement.

the representations and warranties made pursuant to and set forth in subsection

agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or which is applicable to
it or any of its assets.

alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission arises out of or is based
upon a breach of the representations and warranties of the Seller set forth in
or made pursuant to Section 4; provided, that the indemnification provided by
this Section 9 shall not apply to the extent that such untrue statement of a
material fact or omission of a material fact necessary to make the statements
made, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, was
made as a result of an error in the manipulation of, or calculations based upon,
the Loan Detail. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability
which the Seller may otherwise have.

(b) Promptly after receipt by any person entitled to indemnification
under this Section 9 (each, an "indemnified party") of notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against the Seller (the "indemnifying party") under this
Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof;
but the omission to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any
liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this
Section 9. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and
it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party will be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may
elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after
receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the
defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided,
however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified
party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party or parties shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or them
and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have
the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to
otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such
indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party
to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such action
and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, which approval will not be
unreasonably withheld, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any legal
or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed
separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in
accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood,
however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of
more than one separate counsel, approved by the Purchaser and the indemnifying
party, representing all the indemnified parties under Section 9(a) who are
parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the
indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the
action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel
for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except
that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall only be in
respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii).
10
(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is due in
accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a court to be
unavailable to an indemnified party on grounds of policy or otherwise, then the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified and indemnifying
parties in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnified and indemnifying parties
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such parties.
(d) The Purchaser and the Seller agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 9(c) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of
the considerations referred to in Section 9(c) above. The amount paid or payable

FORM OF OPINION I OF COUNSEL TO THE SELLER
April 5, 2001
To: Persons on Annex A
RE: GMAC COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE SECURITIES, INC. MORTGAGE
PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES, SERIES 2001-C1
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am [General] [Associate General] [Associate Counsel] to GMAC Commercial
Mortgage Corporation ("GMACCM") and, in that capacity, I am familiar with the
sale by GMACCM of certain commercial mortgage loans ("LOANS") pursuant to the
transactions contemplated by the following documents ("TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS"):
1. An executed copy of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated March
29, 2001, among GMAC Commercial Mortgage Securities, Inc. (the
"Company") as depositor, GMACCM as master servicer and special servicer
and Xxxxx Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A., as trustee (the "Trustee"); and
2. An executed copy of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated March
29, 2001 between the Company and GMACCM.
In connection with this opinion, I have examined, or caused persons under my
supervision to examine, originals or copies of the Transaction Documents. I also
have examined the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of GMACCM and such other
corporate documents of GMACCM as I have deemed necessary or appropriate in
rendering the opinions set forth herein.
In rendering this opinion, I have assumed that: (a) the
Transaction Documents accurately reflect the complete understanding of the
parties with respect to the transactions contemplated thereby and the rights and
obligations of the parties thereunder, and (b) there is not, and will not be,
any other agreement, verbal or written, that materially supplements or modifies
the terms expressed in the Transaction Documents. I have made reasonable inquiry
of the employees and outside legal counsel of GMACCM involved in the transaction
contemplated by the Transaction Documents with respect to the assumptions stated
in the preceding sentence, and, based on such inquiry, nothing has come to my
attention that leads me to believe that I am not justified in so assuming.
I also have assumed: (a) the authenticity of all documents
submitted to me as
D-3A-1
originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to me
as copies, (b) the genuineness of all signatures (other than signatures on
behalf of GMACCM), and (c) the legal capacity of all natural persons. I have
further assumed (i) that all parties (other than GMACCM) have the requisite
authority and power to enter into and perform their respective obligations under
the Transaction Documents and have taken all necessary organizational action to
authorize the due execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents, and (ii) that the obligations of each party (other than GMACCM) set
forth in the Transaction Document are its legal, valid and binding obligations,
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.
In rendering this opinion, I do not express any opinion concerning any law other
than the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Federal law of the United
States of general application, and the general corporation law of the State of
California. To the extent that any of the matters upon which I am opining herein
are governed by laws other than the laws identified in the preceding sentence, I
have assumed, with your permission and without independent investigation as to
the reasonableness of such assumption, that such other laws and any judicial
interpretation thereof do not vary in any respect material to this opinion from
the corresponding laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and any judicial
interpretations thereof. I do not express any opinion on the securities laws of
any jurisdiction nor on any issue not expressly addressed below, and no other
opinions should be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated herein.
When used in this opinion, the words "to the best of my knowledge" signify that
in the course of my representation of GMACCM, no information has come to my
attention that would give me actual knowledge that any such opinions or other
matters are not accurate or that any of the foregoing documents, certificates,
reports, and information on which I have relied are not accurate and complete.
Except as otherwise indicated herein, I have undertaken no independent
investigation or verification of such matters.
Based upon, and subject to the foregoing, it is my opinion that:
1. GMACCM is a corporation organized and existing in good standing under
the laws of California.
2. GMACCM has the corporate authority and power to conduct its business as
now conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under the
Transaction Documents.
3. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by GMACCM has
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by or on behalf
of GMACCM, and each individual who executed the Transaction Documents
on behalf of GMACCM was duly authorized to do so.
4. The Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by
GMACCM.
5. The execution, delivery and performance by GMACCM of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and the consummation by
GMACCM of the transactions
D-3A-2
contemplated thereby, will not violate GMACCM's Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws and will not (i) cause GMACCM to be in material
default under any material agreement to which GMACCM is a party or by
which GMACCM is bound, nor (ii) violate any court judgment, decree or
order of any governmental body to which GMACCM is subject nor any law
or regulation applicable to GMACCM.
6. No litigation action, proceeding or investigation before any court or
other governmental body or regulatory agency currently is pending
against GMACCM or, to the best of my knowledge, overtly threatened
against GMACCM by a written communication to GMACCM, in which an
unfavorable decision, finding or result would materially and adversely
affect GMACCM's ability to perform its obligations under the
Transaction Documents.
7. To the best of my knowledge, no consent, approval or other action by,
or filing with, any state or federal court or governmental authority is
required in connection with GMACCM's execution and performance of the
Transaction Documents, except for those consents, approvals or
authorizations which previously have been obtained and remain in full
force and effect.
The opinions set forth in this letter are provided for the exclusive use and
benefit of each addressee hereto, and no party, except for Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx &
Xxxxxxxxx LLP, is entitled to rely hereon without my prior written consent.
The opinions set forth in this letter are based solely upon current
circumstances, laws and regulations, and I have not undertaken any obligation to
update these opinions in the event of changes thereto or additional legislation
or judicial action.
Very truly yours,
