(a) Subject to this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 5(f) below) and the Servicing Agreement and consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy and no other Noteholder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever with respect to the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and

remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 5(f) below) and consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Note B Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on behalf of the Note A Holder) the rights, if any, that the Note B Holder has to, (i) call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Noteholder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to the Note B Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Noteholder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein).

(b) The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. Each Noteholder agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. The Servicers shall service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation, the rights of the Note B Holder set forth in Section 5(f) below and consistent with the Servicing Standard. Servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Servicing Agreement and consistent with the Servicing Standard. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Noteholder Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of each of the Noteholders as a collective whole (it being understood that the interests of the Note B Holder are subordinate to Note A, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the rights of the Controlling Noteholder), and the Note B Holder, so long as it is not a Borrower Party, shall be deemed a third party beneficiary of such provisions of the Servicing Agreement. The foregoing provisions of this Section 5(b) shall not limit or modify the rights of the Controlling Noteholder and/or the Controlling Noteholder Representative to exercise their respective rights specifically set forth under this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 5(f) and 6), if the Servicer in connection with a Workout of the Mortgage Loan modifies the terms thereof in accordance herewith such that (i) the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Mortgage Loan Rate or scheduled amortization payments on such Mortgage Loan are reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on such Mortgage Loan are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment (other than an increase in the Mortgage Loan Rate or increase in scheduled amortization payments) is made to any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan, all payments to the Note A Holder and the Note B Holder pursuant to Section 3 and Section 4, as applicable, shall be made as though such Workout did not occur, with the payment terms of Note A remaining the same as they are on the date hereof, the full economic effect of all waivers, reductions or deferrals of amounts due on the Mortgage Loan attributable to such Workout shall be borne, first, by the Note B Holder, and then, by the Note A Holder, in that order, in each case up to the amount otherwise due on such Notes. Subject to the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement (including without limitation Sections 5(f) and (6)), in the case of

any modification or amendment described above, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) will have the sole authority and ability to revise the payment provisions set forth in Section 3 and Section 4 above in a manner that reflects the subordination of Note B to Note A with respect to the loss that is the result of such amendment or modification, including: (i) the ability to increase the Note A Percentage Interest and to reduce the Note B Percentage Interest, as applicable, in a manner that reflects a loss in principal as a result of such amendment or modification and (ii) the ability to change the Note A Rate and the Note B Rate, as applicable, in order to reflect a reduction in the Mortgage Loan Rate of the Mortgage Loan but shall not be permitted to change the order of the clauses set forth in Sections 3 and 4 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Workout, modification or amendment of the Mortgage Loan extends the original maturity date of the Mortgage Loan, for purposes of this paragraph, the Balloon Payment will be deemed not to be due on the original maturity date of the Mortgage Loan but will be deemed due on the extended maturity date of the Mortgage Loan.

(d) All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Noteholder described hereunder may be exercised by the Servicers on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder in accordance with the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement.

(e) If any Note is included as an asset of a REMIC, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall each qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Noteholders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interests of the Noteholders therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Noteholders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three months after the earliest startup day of any REMIC which includes Note A (or any portion thereof). The Noteholders agree that the provisions of this Section 5(e) shall be effected by compliance by the Lead Securitization Noteholder or its assignees with this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement or any other agreement which governs the administration of the Mortgage Loan or the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s interests therein. All costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 5(e), to the extent that such costs and expenses relate to administration of a REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense, shall be borne by each Noteholder with respect to the REMIC containing the Note owned by such Noteholder.

Anything herein or in the Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that a Note is included in a REMIC and the other Notes are not, the other Noteholders shall not be required to reimburse such Noteholder that deposited its Note in the REMIC or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount,

payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to either such other Noteholder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

(f) (i) Subject to clauses (ii) or (iii) below, if any consent, modification, amendment or waiver under or other action in respect of the Mortgage Loan (whether or not a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and is continuing) that would constitute a Major Decision has been requested or proposed or any fact or circumstance has occurred requiring that a Major Decision be made, or if the Servicer or Special Servicer otherwise intends to make a Major Decision, then the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver prompt written notice thereof to the Controlling Noteholder and its Controlling Noteholder Representative, if any, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to taking action with respect to such Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to such Major Decision), and none of the Servicer, the Special Servicer or any other Person shall implement any decision with respect to such Major Decision (or make a determination not to take action with respect to such Major Decision) unless and until the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has received the written consent of the Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative).

(ii) If the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, has not received a response from the Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative) with respect to such Major Decision within five (5) Business Days after delivery of the notice of such Major Decision, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deliver an additional copy of the notice of such Major Decision in all caps bold 14-point font: “This is a Second Notice. Failure to respond within five (5) Business Days of this Second Notice will result in a loss of your right to consent with respect to this decision,” and if the Controlling Noteholder fails to respond to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) with respect to any such proposed action within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such second notice, the Controlling Noteholder shall have no further consent rights with respect to such action (provided, however, that such failure to reply shall not affect the rights of the Controlling Noteholder to consent to any future actions). Notwithstanding the foregoing, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Servicer may take actions with respect to such Mortgaged Property before obtaining the consent of the Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative) if the Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions prior to such consent would materially and adversely affect the interest of the Noteholders as a collective whole, and the Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Noteholder. The foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or a Servicer acting on its behalf) of its duties to comply with the Servicing Standard.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not follow any advice or consultation provided by the Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative) that would require or cause the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) to violate any applicable law, including the REMIC Provisions, be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, require or

cause the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) to violate provisions of this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, require or cause the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) to violate the terms of the Mortgage Loan, or materially expand the scope of the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) responsibilities under this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement.

The Noteholders acknowledge that the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement may contain certain provisions that give the Lead Operating Advisor certain non-binding consultation rights with respect to Major Decisions related to compliance with the Risk Retention Rules applicable to the Lead Securitization.

(g) The Note B Holder shall be entitled to avoid a Control Appraisal Period caused by application of an Appraisal Reduction Amount upon satisfaction of the following (which must be completed within thirty (30) days of receipt of a third party Appraisal ordered by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that indicates such Control Appraisal Period has occurred (which such Appraisal the Special Servicer will be required to deliver to the Note B Holder within two Business Days of receipt by the Special Servicer of such third party Appraisal) together with the Master Servicer’s calculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount applicable to Note B): (i) the Note B Holder shall have delivered Threshold Event Collateral as a supplement to the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property, in the amount specified in clause (ii) below, to the Servicer, together with documentation acceptable to the Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard to create and perfect a first priority security interest in favor of the Servicer on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder in (a) cash collateral for the benefit of, and acceptable to, the Servicer or (b) an unconditional and irrevocable standby letter of credit with the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or after the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Servicer or such other party as provided under the Servicing Agreement) as the beneficiary, issued by a bank or other financial institutions the long term unsecured debt obligations of which are rated at least “AA” by S&P, “A” by Fitch and “Aa2” by Xxxxx’x or the short term obligations of which are rated at least “A-1+” by S&P, “F-1” by Fitch and “P-1” by Xxxxx’x, in each case ignoring any of the foregoing ratings requirements with respect to any rating agency that is not one of the Rating Agencies (either (a) or (b), the “Threshold Event Collateral”), and (ii) the Threshold Event Collateral shall be in an amount which, when added to the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property as determined pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, would cause the applicable Control Appraisal Period not to occur. If the requirements of this paragraph are satisfied by the Note B Holder (a “Threshold Event Cure”), no Control Appraisal Period caused by application of an Appraisal Reduction Amount shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to the Note B Holder. If a letter of credit is furnished as Threshold Event Collateral, the Note B Holder shall be required to renew such letter of credit not later than thirty (30) days prior to expiration thereof or to replace such letter of credit with a substitute letter of credit or other Threshold Event Collateral with an expiration date that is greater than forty-five (45) days from the date of substitution; provided, however, that, if a letter of credit is not renewed prior to thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of such letter of credit, the letter of credit shall provide that the Servicer may (and at the direction of the applicable Controlling Noteholder, shall) draw upon such letter of credit and hold the proceeds thereof as Threshold Event Collateral. If a letter of credit is furnished as Threshold Event Collateral, the Note B Holder shall be required to replace such letter of credit with other Threshold Event Collateral within 30 days if the credit ratings of the issuing entity are downgraded below the required ratings; provided, however, that, if such Threshold Event Collateral is not so replaced, the Servicer shall draw upon

such letter of credit and hold the proceeds thereof as Threshold Event Collateral. The Threshold Event Cure shall continue until (i) the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property plus the value of the Threshold Event Collateral would not be sufficient to prevent the applicable Control Appraisal Period from occurring; (ii) the occurrence of a Final Recovery Determination or (iii) the return of the Threshold Event Collateral pursuant to the following sentence. If the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property, upon any redetermination thereof, is sufficient to avoid the occurrence of a Control Appraisal Period without taking into consideration any, or some portion of, Threshold Event Collateral previously delivered by the Note B Holder, any or such portion of Threshold Event Collateral held by the Servicer shall promptly be returned to the Note B Holder (at its sole expense). Upon a Final Recovery Determination with respect to the Mortgage Loan, such Threshold Event Collateral shall be available to reimburse each Noteholder for any realized loss pursuant to Sections 3 or 4, as applicable, with respect to the Mortgage Loan after application of the net proceeds of liquidation, not in excess of the Note A Principal Balance and the Note B Principal Balance, as the case may be, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable interest rate and all other Additional Servicing Expenses reimbursable under this Agreement and under the Servicing Agreement. Any Threshold Event Collateral shall be treated as an “outside reserve fund” for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and such property (and the right to reimbursement of any amounts with respect thereto from a REMIC) shall be beneficially owned by the posting Note B Holder who shall be taxed on all income with respect thereto. The entire amount of Threshold Event Collateral, without a haircut or other reduction, shall be considered in determining the sufficiency of such Threshold Event Collateral to avoid a Control Appraisal Period.

(h) [Reserved].

(i) The Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall obtain appraisals that meet the requirements of, and at the times required pursuant to, the terms of the Servicing Agreement.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Servicing Agreement, if at any time a Borrower Party is a Noteholder (a “Borrower Party Noteholder”), then (i) such Borrower Party Noteholder shall not have any rights as a Controlling Noteholder or a Controlling Class Representative, (ii) such Borrower Party Noteholder shall have no right to appoint or terminate the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, (iii) such Borrower Party Noteholder shall have no right to consult with or advise the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, and shall have no right to review and approve or comment on any Asset Status Report and (iv) in each and every instance where, pursuant to this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer must take into account the interests of each Noteholder (or words of similar import), such consideration shall be given to the Borrower Party Noteholder only in its capacity as a holder of the applicable Note.

(k) If an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer may, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Servicing Agreement and subject to the Servicing Standard, elect to sell (1) if no Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing, the Mortgage Loan, with the consent of the Note B Holder, in which case such sale would include each of Note A and Note B or (2) if a Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing, Note A and Note B with the consent of the Controlling Noteholder unless a

Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and without the consent of the Note B Holder provided the terms and conditions of Section 2(d)(viii) have been complied with.

Section 6. Appointment of Controlling Noteholder Representative.

(a) The Controlling Noteholder shall have the right at any time to appoint a controlling noteholder representative to exercise its rights hereunder (the “Controlling Noteholder Representative”). The Controlling Noteholder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Noteholder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Noteholder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Noteholder Representative. The Controlling Noteholder Representative may be any Person (other than any Borrower Party), including, without limitation, the Controlling Noteholder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Noteholder, any Affiliate of the Controlling Noteholder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Noteholder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Noteholder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Noteholder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Noteholder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Noteholder and other Noteholders (and any Servicer) will accept such actions of the Controlling Noteholder Representative as actions of the Controlling Noteholder. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer on its behalf) shall not be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Noteholder Representative until the Controlling Noteholder has notified the Lead Securitization Noteholder (and any Servicer) of such appointment and, if the Controlling Noteholder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Noteholder, the Controlling Noteholder Representative provides the Lead Securitization Noteholder (and any Servicer) with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment, an address, any fax number and any email address for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses, telephone numbers, any fax numbers and any email addresses). The Controlling Noteholder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Noteholder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Noteholder. The Controlling Noteholder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Noteholder Representative.

(b) Neither the Controlling Noteholder Representative nor the Controlling Noteholder will have any liability to any other Noteholder or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, or for errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Noteholders agree that the Controlling Noteholder Representative and the Controlling Noteholder may take or refrain from taking actions that favor the interests of one Noteholder over any other Noteholder, and that the Controlling Noteholder Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of a Noteholder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Noteholder Representative or such Controlling Noteholder, as the case may be, agree to take no action against the Controlling Noteholder Representative, such Controlling Noteholder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Noteholder

Representative nor such Controlling Noteholder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting solely in the interests of any Noteholder.

(c) If the Lead Securitization Noteholder is the Controlling Noteholder, the Note B Holder acknowledges and agrees all of the aforementioned rights and obligations of the Controlling Noteholder and the Controlling Noteholder Representative set forth in Section 5(f) and 5(g) and this Section 6 shall be exercisable by the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the applicable Person specified in the Servicing Agreement) to the extent set forth in the Servicing Agreement.

Section 7. Special Servicer. The Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative), at its expense (including, without limitation, the reasonable costs and expenses of counsel to any third parties and costs and expenses of the terminated Special Servicer), shall have the right, at any time from time to time, to appoint a replacement Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative) shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of any Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, with or without cause, upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Special Servicer (provided, however, that the Controlling Noteholder and/or Controlling Noteholder Representative shall not be liable for any termination or similar fee in connection with the removal of the Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7); such termination not to be effective unless and until (A) each Rating Agency delivers a Rating Agency Confirmation (to the extent any portion of the Mortgage Loan has been securitized); (B) the successor Special Servicer has assumed in writing (from and after the date such successor Special Servicer becomes the Special Servicer) all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement from and after the date it becomes the Special Servicer as they relate to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to an assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; and (C) the Trustee shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that (x) the designation of such replacement to serve as Special Servicer is in compliance with the Servicing Agreement, (y) such replacement will be bound by the terms of the Servicing Agreement with respect to such Mortgage Loan and (z) subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, the applicable Servicing Agreement will be enforceable against such replacement in accordance with its terms. The Lead Securitization Noteholder shall promptly provide copies to any terminated Special Servicer of the documents referred to in the preceding sentence. The Lead Securitization Noteholder will reasonably cooperate with the Controlling Noteholder in order to satisfy the foregoing conditions, including the Rating Agency Confirmation.

The Controlling Noteholder agrees and acknowledges that the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement may contain provisions such that any Special Servicer could be terminated under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement based on a recommendation by the Operating Advisor if (A) the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (1) the Special Servicer has failed to comply with the Servicing Standard and (2) a replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the holders of securities issued under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as a collective whole) and (B) an affirmative vote of requisite certificateholders is obtained. The Controlling Noteholder will retain its right to remove and

replace the Special Servicer, but the Controlling Noteholder may not restore a Special Servicer that has been removed in accordance with the preceding sentence.

Section 8. Payment Procedure.

(a) The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Master Servicer on its behalf), in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 or 4, as applicable, and subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, will deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account established pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) shall establish a segregated sub-account for amounts due to each Noteholder. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days following the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s (or the Master Servicer’s acting on its behalf) receipt of properly identified and available funds from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower; provided, however, that in the event the Master Servicer is in receipt of properly identified funds that are not available to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer may instead deposit such amounts into the Collection Account and Companion Distribution Account, as applicable, on the same Business Day that such properly identified funds become available to the Master Servicer.

(b) If the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of a Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to such Noteholder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to such Noteholder and such Noteholder will promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) repay to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall have theretofore distributed to such Noteholder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall have been required to pay to the Mortgage Loan Borrower, the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, any other Noteholder or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c) If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) makes any payment to any other Noteholder before the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) does not receive the corresponding payment within three (3) Business Days of its payment to such other Noteholder, then such other Noteholder will, at the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s (or the Servicer’s on its behalf) request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf).

(d) Each Noteholder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it will promptly remit such excess to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer

on its behalf) subject to this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement and to be distributed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from any other Noteholder, as applicable, with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such other Noteholder, as applicable, under the Mortgage Loan, provided, that each Noteholder’s obligations under this Section 8 are separate and distinct obligations from one another and in no event shall the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) enforce the obligations of one Noteholder against another Noteholder. Each Noteholder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9. Limitation on Liability of the Noteholders. No Noteholder (including any Servicer on a Noteholder’s behalf, but only to the extent that the Servicing Agreement does not impose any other standard upon any Servicer, in which case the Servicing Agreement shall control) shall have any liability to any other Noteholder except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Noteholder.

The Note B Holder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the obligation of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of the Note B Holder and that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) shall have no liability whatsoever to the Note B Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Noteholder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that such Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Each Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, any other Noteholder may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that such Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of each other Noteholder and that such Noteholder shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Noteholder in connection with such Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by such Noteholder to exercise such rights; provided, however, that such Noteholder shall not be protected against any liability to any other Noteholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence.

Section 10. Bankruptcy. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(f) hereof and the Servicing Standard, each Noteholder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(f) hereof and the Servicing Standard, each Noteholder further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Noteholder, as a

creditor, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(f), the Noteholders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Noteholder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Noteholder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to the Note B Holder and the Controlling Noteholder in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Noteholders, hereby agree that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Noteholder but subject to the provisions of Section 5(f), each other Noteholder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Noteholder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Noteholder may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by any Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 11. Cure Rights of the Note B Holder.

Nothwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for so long as Note B is included in the Lead Securitization, the provisions of this Section 11 shall not apply.

(a) Subject to Section 11(b) below, and prior to a Control Appraisal Period, in the event that the Mortgage Loan Borrower fails to make any payment of principal or interest on the Mortgage Loan by the end of the applicable grace period (the “Grace Period”) for such payment permitted under the applicable Mortgage Loan Documents (a “Monetary Default”), the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall provide written notice to the Note B Holder and the Controlling Noteholder Representative of such default (the “Monetary Default Notice”). The Note B Holder shall each have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Monetary Default within five (5) Business Days after receiving the Monetary Default Notice (the “Cure Period”) and at no other times. The Monetary Default Notice shall contain a statement that the Note B Holder’s or the Controlling Noteholder Representative’s failure to cure such Monetary Default within five (5) Business Days after receiving such notice will result in the termination of the right to cure such Monetary Default. At the time a payment is made by the Note B Holder to cure a Monetary Default, the Note B Holder shall pay or reimburse the Note A Holder, for all unreimbursed Advances (whether or not recoverable with respect to any Note), Advance Interest Amounts, any unpaid fees to any Servicer and any Additional Servicing Expenses. The Note B Holder shall not be required, in order to effect a cure hereunder, to pay any default interest or late charges under the Mortgage Loan Documents. So long as a Monetary Default exists for which a cure payment permitted hereunder is made, such Monetary Default shall not be treated as an Event of Default by the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including for purposes of (i) the definition of “Sequential Pay Event,” (ii) accelerating the Mortgage Loan, modifying, amending or waiving any provisions of the Mortgage Loan Documents or commencing proceedings for foreclosure or the taking of title by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or other similar legal proceedings with respect to the Mortgaged Property; or (iii) treating the Mortgage Loan as a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan); provided

that such limitation shall not prevent the Lead Securitization Noteholder from collecting Default Interest or late charges from the Mortgage Loan Borrower to be applied in accordance with this Agreement. Any amounts advanced by a Noteholder on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower to effect any cure shall be reimbursable to such Noteholder under Section 3 or Section 4, as applicable.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11(a), the Note B Holder’s right to cure a Monetary Default or Non-Monetary Default shall be limited to a combined total of (i) six (6) cures of Monetary Defaults over the term of the Mortgage Loan, no more than four (4) of which may be consecutive, and (ii) six (6) cures of Non-Monetary Defaults over the term of the Mortgage Loan. Additional Cure Periods shall only be permitted with the consent of the Lead Securitization Noteholder

(c) No action taken by the Note B Holder in accordance with this Agreement shall excuse performance by the Mortgage Loan Borrower of its obligations under the Mortgage Loan Documents and the Note A Holder’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Documents shall not be waived or prejudiced by virtue of the Note B Holder’s actions under this Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Note B Holder shall be subrogated to the Note A Holder’s rights to any payment owing to the Note A Holder for which the Note B Holder makes a cure payment as permitted under this Section 11, but such subrogation rights may not be exercised against the Mortgage Loan Borrower until ninety-one (91) days after Note A is paid in full.

(d) Prior to a Control Appraisal Period, if an Event of Default (other than a Monetary Default) occurs and is continuing under the Mortgage Loan Documents (a “Non-Monetary Default”), the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall provide notice of such Non-Monetary Default to the Note B Holder and the Controlling Noteholder Representative of such Non-Monetary Default (the “Non-Monetary Default Notice”) and the Note B Holder shall each have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Non-Monetary Default until the later of (a) the expiration date of the cure period afforded to the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Mortgage Loan Documents, without regard for the date of receipt by the Note B Holder of the Non-Monetary Default Notice, and (b) the date which is thirty (30) days from the date of receipt by the Note B Holder of the Non-Monetary Default Notice related to such Non-Monetary Default; provided, however, if such Non-Monetary Default is susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such period and if curative action was promptly commenced and is being diligently pursued by the Note B Holder, the Note B Holder (unless a Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing) shall be given an additional period of time as is reasonably necessary to enable the Note B Holder in the exercise of due diligence to cure such Non-Monetary Default for so long as (i) the Note B Holder diligently and expeditiously proceed to cure such Non-Monetary Default, (ii) the Note B Holder makes all cure payments that they are permitted to make in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 11(a) hereof, (iii) such additional period of time does not exceed ninety (90) days, (iv) such Non-Monetary Default is not caused by an Insolvency Proceeding or during such period of time that the Note B Holder has to cure a Non-Monetary Default in accordance with this Section 11(d) (the “Non-Monetary Default Cure Period”), an Insolvency Proceeding does not occur, and (v) during such Non-Monetary Default Cure Period, there is no material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property taken as whole, which cannot be cured by the Note B Holder within five (5) days of such notice of such material adverse effect. The Non-Monetary Default Notice shall contain a statement that the Note

B Holder’s or the Controlling Noteholder Representative’s failure to cure such Non-Monetary Default within the applicable Non-Monetary Default Cure Period after receiving such notice will result in the termination of the right to cure such Non-Monetary Default. The Note B Holder shall not contact the Mortgage Loan Borrower in order to effect any cures under Section 11(a) or this Section 11(d) without the prior written consent of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 12. Purchase By the Note B Holder.

Nothwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for so long as Note B is included in the Lead Securitization, the purchase option provided under this Section 12 (i) shall be exercisable by the Note B Holder prior to a Control Appraisal Period and (ii) shall not be exercisable while a Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing.

The Note B Holder shall have the right, by written notice to the Note A Holder (a “Noteholder Purchase Notice”; the sender(s) of such notice, the “Purchasing Noteholder”; and each recipient of such notice, a “Selling Noteholder”), delivered at any time an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan or a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and is continuing, to purchase, in immediately available funds, Note A (such Note specified in the Noteholder Purchase Notice, a “Purchased Note”), in whole but not in part at the applicable Defaulted Mortgage Loan Purchase Price. For avoidance of doubt, if the Note B Holder elects to send a Noteholder Purchase Notice pursuant to this Section 12, it must purchase the applicable Purchased Note. Upon the delivery of the Noteholder Purchase Notice to the Selling Noteholder(s), the Selling Noteholder shall sell (and the Purchasing Noteholder shall purchase) the Purchased Note at the applicable Defaulted Mortgage Loan Purchase Price, on a date (the “Defaulted Note Purchase Date”) not less than ten (10) days and not more than forty-five (45) days after the date of the Noteholder Purchase Notice, as shall be mutually established by the Purchasing Noteholder and the Selling Noteholder, provided, that the Purchasing Noteholder shall be able to extend the Defaulted Note Purchase Date for up to thirty (30) days upon payment to the Selling Noteholder of a nonrefundable deposit equal to 7.5% of the Defaulted Mortgage Loan Purchase Price. The Noteholder Purchase Notice shall contain a statement that the Purchasing Noteholder’s failure to purchase the Purchased Note on a Defaulted Note Purchase Date (other than as a result of any failure to consummate such purchase on the part of the Selling Noteholder or as a result of the conditions giving rise to such purchase option ceasing to exist) will result in the termination of such right in respect of the Event of Default that caused such purchase right to be exercisable and not in respect of any other Event of Default. The Note B Holder agrees that the sale of any Purchased Notes to it shall comply with all requirements of the Servicing Agreement and that all actual costs and expenses related thereto shall be paid by the Purchasing Noteholder. The Defaulted Mortgage Loan Purchase Price shall be calculated by the Selling Noteholder (or the Servicer on its or their behalf) three (3) Business Days prior to the Defaulted Note Purchase Date (and such calculation shall be accompanied by a listing of all amounts included in the Defaulted Mortgage Loan Purchase Price and reasonably detailed back-up documentation explaining how such price was determined), and shall, absent manifest error, be binding upon the Purchasing Noteholder. Concurrently with the payment to the Selling Noteholder in immediately available funds of the Defaulted Mortgage Loan Purchase Price, the Selling Noteholder shall execute at the sole cost and expense of the Purchasing Noteholder in favor of the Purchasing Noteholder assignment documentation which will assign the Purchased Note and the Mortgage Loan Documents without recourse, representations or

warranties (except the Selling Noteholder will represent and warrant that it had good and marketable title to, was the sole owner and holder of, and had power and authority to deliver its Note and all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loan Documents free and clear of all liens and encumbrances). The right of the Note B Holder to purchase one or more Notes as set forth above in this Section 12 shall automatically terminate upon a foreclosure sale, sale by power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure with respect to the Mortgaged Property (and the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall give the Note B Holder ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intent with respect to such action (which such action shall be subject to Section 5 hereof)). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if title to the Mortgaged Property is transferred to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or a designee on its behalf), in a manner commonly known as “the borrower turning over the keys” and not otherwise in connection with a consummation by the Lead Securitization Noteholder of a foreclosure sale or sale by power of sale or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, less than ten (10) Business Days after the acceleration of the Mortgage Loan, the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall notify the Note B Holder of such transfer and the Note B Holder shall have a fifteen (15) Business Day period from the date of such notice from the Lead Securitization Noteholder to deliver the Noteholder Purchase Notice to the Lead Securitization Noteholder, in which case the Note B Holder shall be obligated to purchase the Mortgaged Property, in immediately available funds, within such fifteen (15) Business Day period at the applicable Defaulted Mortgage Loan Purchase Price.

Section 13. Representations of the Note B Holder. The Note B Holder represents, solely as to itself and its Note B, and it is specifically understood and agreed, that it is acquiring such Note for its own account in the ordinary course of its business and the Note A Holder shall not have any liability or responsibility to the Note B Holder except (i) as expressly provided herein or (ii) for actions that are taken or omitted to be taken by the Note A Holder that constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct or that constitute a breach of this Agreement.

The Note B Holder acknowledges that the Note A Holder does not owe the Note B Holder any fiduciary duty with respect to any action taken under the Mortgage Loan Documents and, except as provided herein, need not consult with the Note B Holder with respect to any action taken by such Note A Holder in connection with the Mortgage Loan.

The Note B Holder expressly and irrevocably waives for itself and any Person claiming through or under the Note B Holder any and all rights that it may have under Section 1315 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law or the provisions of any similar law which purports to give a junior loan noteholder the right to initiate any loan enforcement or foreclosure proceedings.

Section 14. Representations of the Note A Holder.

Section 15. Independent Analysis of the Note B Holder. The Note B Holder acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Initial Note A Holder, except with respect to the representations and warranties provided by the Initial Note A Holder herein and in any documents or instruments executed and delivered by the Note A Holder in connection herewith (including the representations and warranties provided in the agreement pursuant to which it acquired Note B), and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to purchase Note B and the Note B Holder accepts responsibility therefor. The Note B Holder hereby acknowledges that, other than the representations and warranties provided herein and in such other documents or instruments, the Note A Holder has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the Mortgage Loan, subject to such representations and warranties as provided by the Note A Holder herein and in such other documents and instruments, and that none of the Note A Holder shall have any responsibility for (i) the collectibility of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the validity, enforceability or legal effect of any of the Mortgage Loan Documents or the title insurance policy or policies or any survey furnished or to be furnished to the Note A Holder in connection with the origination of the

Mortgage Loan, (iii) the validity, sufficiency or effectiveness of the lien created or to be created by the Mortgage Loan Documents, or (iv) the financial condition of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Note B Holder assumes all risk of loss in connection with its Note except as specifically set forth herein.

Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between any of the Noteholders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. The Note A Holder shall not have any obligation whatsoever to offer to the Note B Holder the opportunity to purchase a Note interest in any future loans originated by the Note A Holder or its Affiliates, and if such Note A Holder chooses to offer to the Note B Holder the opportunity to purchase a Note interest in any future mortgage loans originated by the Note A Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as the Note A Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. The Note B Holder shall not have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from the Note A Holder an interest in any future loans originated by such Note A Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 17. Not a Security. The Note B shall not be deemed to be a security within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Each Noteholder acknowledges that each other Noteholder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, (i) (a) the Mortgage Loan Borrower or (b) any direct or indirect parent of the Mortgage Loan Borrower or (c) any Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower or (d) any Affiliate of any direct or indirect parent of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, (ii) any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate of the holder of such debt, or (iii) any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate of a holder of such preferred equity (each, a “Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party”), and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Parties and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 19. Sale of the Notes.

(a) The Note B Holder agrees that it will not Transfer all or any portion of its Note except in accordance with this Section 19. The Note B Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of the Note A Holder or any other Person, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its interest in its Note to any Person, provided that any such Transfer shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Section 19. The Note B Holder shall have the right to Transfer its entire Note or any portion thereof exceeding 49%, (i) to a Qualified Institutional Lender, provided, that promptly after the Transfer the Note A Holder is provided with (x) a representation from a transferee or the Note B Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender, and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 20 and provided further, that such transfer would not cause such Note to be held by more than seven persons nor cause there to be no one person owning a majority of such Note and (ii) to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, provided that with respect to this clause (ii),

the Note B Holder obtains (1) prior to the Lead Securitization Date, the consent of the Lead Securitization Noteholder, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (2) after the Lead Securitization Date, Rating Agency Confirmation (and for avoidance of doubt, no consent of the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall be required after the closing of the Lead Securitization); provided that in each of case (1) and (2), (x) promptly after the Transfer the Note A Holder is provided with a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 20 and (y) such transfer would not cause the subject Note to be held by more than seven persons; and provided further, however, that if such transfer would cause there to be no one person owning a majority of the subject Note, then such transfer will not be permitted unless persons owning a majority of the subject Note designate one of such persons to act on behalf of such persons owning such majority. If the subject Note is held by more than one Noteholder at any time, the holders of a majority of the Note B Principal Balance shall immediately appoint a representative to exercise all rights of the Note B Holder hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s prior consent, which may be withheld in the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s sole and absolute discretion, the Note B Holder shall not Transfer all or any portion of its Note to a Borrower Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The Note B Holder agrees it will pay the expenses of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) in connection with any such Transfer.

(b) All Transfers under Section 19(a) shall be made upon written notice to the Note A Holder not later than the date of such Transfer, and each transferee shall (i) execute an assignment and assumption agreement whereby such transferee assumes all or a ratable portion, as the case may be, of the obligations of the Note B Holder hereunder with respect to its Note from and after the date of such assignment (or, in the case, of a pledge, collateral assignment or other encumbrance made in accordance with Section 19(e) by the Note B Holder of its Note solely as security for a loan to the Note B Holder made by a third-party lender whereby the Note B Holder remains fully liable under this Agreement, on or before the date on which such third-party lender succeeds to the rights of the Note B Holder by foreclosure or otherwise, such third-party lender executes an agreement that such lender shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the obligations of the Note B Holder hereunder) and (ii) agree in writing to be bound by the Servicing Agreement, unless the Servicing Agreement is not then in effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan, in which event the parties will enter into or agree to be bound by any replacement servicing agreement therefor in accordance with the provisions hereof. Upon the consummation of a Transfer of all or any portion of Note B in accordance with this Agreement, the transferring Person shall be released from all liability arising under this Agreement with respect to Note B (or the portion thereof that was the subject of such Transfer), for the period after the effective date of such Transfer (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing release shall not apply in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of a participation interest in Note B as described in clause (c) below). In connection with any such permitted transfer of a portion of Note B and for all purposes of this Agreement, the Note A Holder need only recognize the majority holder of the Note B Holder for purposes of notices, consents and other communications between the Note A Holder and such majority holder of Note B shall be the only Person authorized hereunder to exercise any rights of the Note B Holder under this Agreement; provided, however, the majority holder of Note B may from time to time designate any other Person as an additional party entitled to receive notices, consents and other communications and/or to exercise rights on behalf of the Note B Holder hereunder by delivering written notice thereof to

the Note A Holder, and, from and after delivery of such notice, such designee shall be so authorized hereunder and shall be the only party entitled to receive such notices, consents and such other communications and/or to exercise such rights.

(c) In the case of any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of a participation interest in a Note, (i) such Noteholder’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Noteholder shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the other Noteholders and any Persons acting on their behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Noteholder in connection with such Noteholder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, and (iv) all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Noteholder had not sold such participation interest; provided, however, that if the applicable participant is a Qualified Institutional Lender (and delivers to the other Noteholders a certification from an authorized officer confirming its status as a Qualified Institutional Lender), such Noteholder, by written notice to the other Noteholders, may delegate to such participant such Noteholder’s right to exercise the rights of the Controlling Noteholder hereunder and under the Servicing Agreement; provided, further, however, that upon the occurrence of a Control Appraisal Period, the aforesaid delegation of rights shall terminate and be of no further force and effect with respect to Note B.

(d) Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and Section 5(k) of this Agreement if Note A is included in the Lead Securitization Trust, the Note A Holder shall have the right to Transfer all or any portion of its Note without the prior consent of any other Noteholder (i) prior to an Event of Default, to any party other than a Borrower Party and (ii) after an Event of Default, to any party, including a Borrower Party; provided, however, that following any Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, the Note A Holder may only transfer all or any portion of its Note to a Borrower Party with the prior written consent of the Controlling Noteholder at any time when such Note A Holder is not the Controlling Noteholder; provided further, however, that following any Transfer of Note A, the Mortgage Loan continues to be serviced in its entirety pursuant to the Servicing Agreement by a Servicer unaffiliated with Mortgage Loan Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 12, no Noteholder or the Servicer shall have any right to Transfer or cause the Transfer of any other Note.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Noteholder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit or repurchase facility to such Noteholder and that is (x) either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency or (y) to any Federal Reserve Bank or Federal Home Loan Bank to secure any obligation of such Noteholder to such bank and such pledge shall be enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 19(e), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Noteholder or any person which Controls such Noteholder that is secured by such Noteholder’s interest in the applicable Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without (a) prior to the first Securitization of any Note, the consent of each other Noteholder and (b) after the closing of the first Securitization of any Note, Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Noteholder to each other Noteholder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected

(including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each other Noteholder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Noteholder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Noteholder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) Business Days to cure a default by the pledging Noteholder in respect of its obligations to each other Noteholder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Noteholder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Noteholder and accept any cure thereof by such Note Pledgee which such pledging Noteholder has the right (but not the obligation) to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Noteholder; (v) that such other Noteholder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Noteholder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Noteholder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Noteholder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Noteholder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Noteholder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Noteholder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Noteholder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Noteholder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Noteholder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Noteholder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Noteholder on account of any Noteholder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or any such other Noteholder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Noteholder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Noteholders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Noteholder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Noteholder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 19(e) shall remain effective as to any Noteholder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Noteholder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(f) Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Noteholder then such Noteholder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit

notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) The loan made by the Conduit (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) to such Noteholder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note will require a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii) The Conduit Credit Enhancer and conduit manager (if Xxxxx’x rates the Securitization) will be a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii) Such Noteholder will pledge (or sell, transfer or assign as part of a repurchase facility) its interest in the applicable Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv) The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit will agree that, if such Noteholder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Noteholder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Noteholder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v) Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not, without obtaining the consent of each other Noteholder, have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Noteholder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 20. Registration of Transfer. In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding (x) any participant and (y) any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Noteholder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 19, from and after the date of such assignment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a Trustee shall not be required to execute an assignment and assumption agreement in connection with any Transfer of a Note if the obligations are assumed pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. In connection with a Transfer of a Note, the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 19 and this Section 20. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Noteholder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and any other Noteholder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall automatically become and be the Agent.

Section 21. Registration of the Notes. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial Note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of

any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 20, and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Note owing to each such Noteholder, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, except in the case of the Initial Noteholders who may hold their Notes through a nominee. Upon request of a Noteholder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of the Noteholders. To the extent another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, the Noteholders hereby designate such person as its agent under this Section 21 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

Section 22. Statement of Intent. The Agent and each Noteholder intend that the Notes be classified, and the arrangement hereby be maintained, in a manner consistent with rules applicable to a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of chapter 1 of the Code that is a fixed investment trust within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §301.7701-4(c), and the parties will not take any action inconsistent with such classification. It is neither the purpose nor the intent of this Agreement to create a partnership, joint venture, “taxable mortgage pool” or association taxable as a corporation between the parties.

Section 23. No Pledge. This Agreement shall not be deemed to represent a pledge of any interest in the Mortgage Loan by the Noteholders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, the Note B Holder shall not have any interest in any property taken as security for the Mortgage Loan, provided, however, that if any such property or the proceeds of any sale, lease or other disposition thereof shall be received, then the Note B Holder shall be entitled to receive its share of such application in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the Servicing Agreement.

Section 24. Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

Section 31. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 32. Withholding Taxes.

(a) If the Lead Securitization Noteholder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to the Note B Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of the Note B Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Noteholder, or the Servicer on its behalf, shall be entitled to do so with respect to the Note B Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to the Note B Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall furnish the Note B Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting the Note B Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which the Note B Holder is subject to tax.

(b) The Note B Holder shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Noteholder against and hold the Lead Securitization Noteholder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) to withhold Taxes from payment made to the Note B Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by the Note B Holder to the Lead Securitization Noteholder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Noteholder to withhold Taxes from payments made to the Note B Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) the Note B Holder shall, upon request of the Lead Securitization Noteholder, at its sole cost and expense, defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization.

(c) Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, and from time to time as reasonably requested by the Lead Securitization Noteholder or Servicer during the term of this Agreement, the Note B Holder shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Noteholder or Servicer,

as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Noteholder substantiating whether the Note B Holder is a Non-Exempt Person and whether the Lead Securitization Noteholder is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement, it being acknowledged by the parties hereto that delivery of a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D shall be satisfactory evidence that the Note B Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if the Note B Holder (or, if the Note B Holder is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the owner of the Note B Holder) is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Noteholder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if the Note B Holder (or, if the Note B Holder is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the owner of the Note B Holder) is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, the Note B Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Noteholder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments), Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, or applicable successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by the Note B Holder; provided that the Note B Holder, without request, shall deliver a new, appropriately completed Form W-8 if the Note B Holder’s current Form W-8 “expires” or if there is a “change in circumstances” that makes any of the information on the current Form W-8 incorrect (both within the meaning of the instructions to such Form W-8). The Lead Securitization Noteholder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder to the Note B Holder in respect of Note B or otherwise until the Note B Holder shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Noteholder the requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 33. Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. The originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes) will be held by the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or a custodian acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) who shall act as secured party under the Mortgage Loan Documents on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon the Lead Securitization, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes) shall be held by the Custodian (as defined in the Servicing Agreement). Each Note shall be held by the respective Noteholder or a custodian appointed by such Noteholder.

Section 34. Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i) writing and personally delivered, (ii) sent by facsimile transmission (during business hours) if a party has provided a facsimile number, (iii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (iv) sent by electronic mail containing language requesting the recipient to confirm receipt thereof if a party has provided an electronic mail address and only if such electronic mail is promptly followed by a written notice or (iv) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

All notices and reports (including, without limitation, Asset Status Reports) required to be delivered hereunder by the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer on its

behalf) to the Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative), or by the Controlling Noteholder (or its Controlling Noteholder Representative) to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer on its behalf), shall also be delivered by the applicable party to each other Noteholder (including to the Note B Holder regardless of whether a Control Appraisal Period is continuing).

Section 35. Broker. Each Noteholder represents to each other Noteholder that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

Section 36. Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a) The Noteholders hereby appoint the Agent to act on their behalf, and the Agent shall act on behalf of the Noteholders;

(b) The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 20;

(c) The Agent may consult with counsel and 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 with such opinion of counsel;

(d) The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(e) The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(f) The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 20; and

(g) The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder.

Section 37. Termination of Agent. The Agent may be terminated at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice from the Note A Holder. In the event that the Agent is terminated pursuant to this Section 37, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination.

The Agent may resign at any time upon notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholders, has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. DB, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to

a Servicer, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Noteholder. DB, as Initial Agent, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause such Servicer to act as successor Agent, and, if such Servicer declines to act in such capacity, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause a similar servicer to act as successor Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Noteholders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of the Certificate Administrator, as Certificate Administrator under the Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Certificate Administrator as Agent under this Agreement.

Section 38. Resizing. In connection with the Mortgage Loan, each Noteholder agrees, subject to clause (iii)(y) below, that if the Note A Holder determines that it is advantageous to resize its Note by causing the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated or additional pari passu notes (in either case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of such Note to such New Notes, each Noteholder other than the resizing Noteholder shall cooperate with the resizing Noteholder to effect such resizing at such resizing Noteholder’s expense; provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following the creation thereof is no greater than the principal balance of such Note or Notes immediately prior to the creation of the New Notes, (ii) the weighted average interest rate of all outstanding New Notes following the creation thereof is the same as the interest rate of the related Note or Notes immediately prior to the creation of the New Notes, and (iii) no such resizing shall (x) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to, any other Noteholder, or priority of such payments, or (y) increase any other Noteholder’s obligations or decrease any other Noteholder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any resizing of Note A, the related Noteholder may allocate its rights hereunder among the New Notes in any manner in its sole discretion.

Section 39. Conflict. To the extent of any inconsistency between the Servicing Agreement, on one hand, and this Agreement, on the other, this Agreement shall control.

Section 40. Cooperation in Securitization.

(a) Each Noteholder acknowledges that any Noteholder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization of Note A, at the request of the related Noteholder, each other Noteholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts, at the requesting Noteholder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with the requesting Noteholder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which the requesting Noteholder customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with the requesting Noteholder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect the Securitization; provided, however, that either in connection with the Securitization or otherwise at any time prior to the Securitization no other Noteholder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the

amount of any payments due to or priority of any payments to be made to, such Noteholder, (ii) increase such Noteholder’s obligations or decrease such Noteholder’s rights, remedies or protections hereunder or under any Mortgage Loan Document, or (iii) otherwise materially adversely affect the rights and interests of such Noteholder. In connection with any such Securitization of Note A, each other Noteholder agrees to provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to the related Securitization such customary non-confidential information concerning such Noteholder as the requesting Noteholder reasonably determines to be necessary to satisfy its disclosure obligations in connection with its Securitization. Each Noteholder covenants and agrees that if it is not the requesting Noteholder, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the requests of each Rating Agency and the requesting Noteholder in connection with the preparation of any offering documents in connection with the Securitization, and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to it in any Securitization document, all at the cost and expense of the requesting Noteholder. Each Noteholder acknowledges that the information provided by it to the requesting Noteholder pursuant to this Section 40 may be incorporated into the offering documents for a Securitization. A requesting Note A Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by each other Noteholder pursuant to this Section 40.

(b) The Note A Holder securitizing its Note may, at its election, deliver to each other Noteholder drafts of the preliminary and final Securitization offering memoranda, prospectus, preliminary prospectus and any other disclosure documents and (in the case of the Lead Securitization) the Servicing Agreement simultaneously with distributions of any such documents to the general working group of the related Securitization. Each other Noteholder may, at its election, review and comment thereon insofar as it relates to such other Noteholder and/or its Note, and, if such other Noteholder elects to review and comment, such other Noteholder shall review and comment thereon as soon as possible (but in no event later than (i) in the case of the first draft thereof, two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof and (ii) in the case of each subsequent draft thereof, the deadline provided to the general working group of the related Securitization for review and comment), and if such other Noteholder fails to respond within such time, such other Noteholder shall be deemed to have elected to not comment thereon. In the event of any disagreement between any such other Noteholder with respect to the preliminary and final offering memoranda, prospectus, free writing prospectus or any other disclosure documents the requesting Noteholder’s determination shall control. No such other Noteholder shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any such offering documents other than the accuracy of any comments it elects to make regarding itself.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Note A Holder acknowledges and agrees that (i) no other Noteholder shall be required to incur any out-of-pocket expenses in connection with its Securitizations of Note A, and (ii) any such other Noteholder shall only be required to disclose such customary non-confidential information reasonably determined by the requesting Note A Holder to be necessary to satisfy its disclosure obligations in connection with its Securitization.
