With respect to any Transaction, the Pricing Rate shall be determined initially on the Pricing Rate Determination Date applicable to the first Pricing Rate Period for such Transaction, and shall be reset on each Reset Date for the next succeeding Pricing Rate Period for such Transaction. Buyer or its agent shall determine in accordance with the terms of this Agreement the Pricing Rate on each Pricing Rate Determination Date for the related Pricing Rate Period and notify Seller of such rate for such period on the Reset Date. For purposes of this Section 3(b), the “Transaction Conditions Precedent” shall be deemed to have been satisfied with respect to any proposed Transaction if:
(A) | no Default or Event of Default under this Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing as of the Purchase Date for such proposed Transaction; |
(B) | Seller shall have certified to Buyer in writing the acquisition cost of such Securities (including therein reasonable supporting documentation required by the Buyer, if any); |

(D) | Buyer shall have (I) determined, in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 3(a) of this Agreement, that the assets proposed to be sold to Buyer by Seller in such Transaction are Eligible Loans and (II) obtained internal credit approval for the inclusion of such Eligible Loan as a Purchased Loan in a Transaction. |
(c) Each Confirmation, together with this Agreement, shall be conclusive evidence of the terms of the Transaction(s) covered thereby unless specific objection is made no more than three (3) Business Days after the date thereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of such Confirmation and the terms of this Agreement, the Confirmation shall prevail. An objection sent by Seller with respect to any Confirmation must state specifically that the writing is an objection, must specify the provision(s) of such Confirmation being objected to by Seller, must set forth such provision(s) in the manner that Seller believes such provisions should be stated, and must be received by Buyer no more than three (3) Business Days after such Confirmation is received by Seller.
(d) No Transaction shall be terminable on demand by Buyer (other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than with respect to Buyer)). Seller shall be entitled to terminate a Transaction on demand and repurchase the Purchased Loans subject to a Transaction in whole or in part on any Business Day prior to the Repurchase Date (an “Early Repurchase Date”); provided, however, that:

(i) | Seller notifies Buyer in writing of its intent to terminate such Transaction and repurchase such Purchased Loans no later than five (5) Business Days prior to such Early Repurchase Date, |
(ii) | on such Early Repurchase Date Seller pays to Buyer an amount equal to the sum of the Repurchase Price for such Transaction, the Exit Fee, if any, and any other amounts payable under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 3(i) of this Agreement) with respect to such Transaction against transfer to the Seller or its agent of such Purchased Loans, and |
(iii) | on such Early Repurchase Date, in addition, but after giving effect to the amounts set forth in subclause (ii) above, Seller pays to Buyer, on account of each Purchased Loan, an amount sufficient to reduce the Repurchase Price for each Purchased Loan to the Target Price for each such Purchased Loan. |
Such notice shall set forth the Early Repurchase Date and shall identify with particularity the Purchased Loans to be repurchased on such Early Repurchase Date.
(e) On the Repurchase Date, termination of the Transactions will be effected by transfer to Seller or its agent of the Purchased Loans and any Income in respect thereof received by Buyer (and not previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement) against the simultaneous transfer of the Repurchase Price to an account of Buyer.
(f) Seller shall pay to Buyer the Exit Fee with respect to any Purchased Loan if the related Transaction is terminated for any reason prior to the Repurchase Date agreed upon by Buyer and Seller; provided, that the Exit Fee shall be deemed waived by Buyer if the reason for the termination is any of
(1) principal payments (either prepayments or repayments) received on the Purchased Loan,
(2) the related Purchased Loan is included contemporaneously in a securitization transaction where DBSI is sole lead manager (or co-lead manager, provided the economics to DBSI are as outlined in an engagement letter for a collateralized debt obligation securitization transaction mutually acceptable to DBSI and the Sponsor) and sole bookrunner, or
(3) the occurrence of an Early Repurchase Date with respect to a Purchased Loan that has been the subject of a Margin Deficit where the related Market Value has decreased by more than 25% from such Market Value as of the related Purchase Date, or

(4) the occurrence of an event set forth in Section 3(j) or (k) below which results in an increased cost to Seller for the continuance of the related Transaction.
(g) If prior to the first day of any Pricing Rate Period with respect to any Transaction, (i) Buyer shall have determined in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Pricing Rate Period, or (ii) the LIBO Rate determined or to be determined for such Pricing Rate Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Buyer (as reasonably determined and certified by Buyer) of making or maintaining Transactions during such Pricing Rate Period, Buyer shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Seller as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, the Pricing Rate with respect to such Transaction for such Pricing Rate Period, and for any subsequent Pricing Rate Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be a per annum rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 125 basis points (1.25%) (the “Alternative Rate”).
(h) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for Buyer to effect Transactions as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, (a) the commitment of Buyer hereunder to enter into new Transactions and to continue Transactions as such shall forthwith be canceled, and (b) the Transactions then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Alternative Rate Transactions on the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period or within such earlier period as may be required by law.
(i) Upon demand by Buyer, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any net loss or expense (not to include any lost profit or opportunity) (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which Buyer may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by the Seller in terminating any Transaction after the Seller has given a notice in accordance with Section 3(d) of a termination of a Transaction, (ii) any payment of the Repurchase Price on any day other than a Remittance Date (including, without limitation, any such reasonable loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by Buyer to maintain Transactions hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained) or (iii) a default by Seller in selling Eligible Loans after Seller has notified Buyer of a proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed to purchase such Eligible Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. A certificate as to such costs, losses, damages and expenses, setting forth the calculations therefor shall be submitted promptly by Buyer to Seller and shall be prima facie evidence of the information set forth therein.
(j) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer made subsequent to the date hereof:

(ii) | shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBO Rate hereunder; or |
(iii) | shall impose on Buyer any other condition; |
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount which Buyer deems, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, to be material, of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions or to reduce any amount receivable under the Transaction Documents in respect thereof; then, in any such case, Seller shall promptly pay Buyer, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3(j), it shall, within ten (10) Business Days of such event, notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. Such notification as to the calculation of any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts. This obligation of the Seller shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans.
(k) If Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, to be material, then from time to time, after submission by Buyer to Seller of a written request therefor, Seller shall pay to Buyer such additional amounts as will compensate Buyer for such reduction. Such notification as to the calculation of any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts. This obligation of the Seller shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Loans.

(a) If at any time, the Market Value of any of the Purchased Loans shall be less than the Buyer’s Margin Amount for such Purchased Loans (a “Margin Deficit”), by greater than $250,000, when calculated on an aggregate basis with any other Purchased Loans, then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer, not later than the Business Day after such notice is given, cash or additional collateral acceptable to Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion, so that the Market Value of each of the Purchased Loans shall equal or exceed the Deficit Cure Amount (taking into account the application of such cash or additional collateral to be delivered in reduction of the Repurchase Price) for such Purchased Loans, as of the same date.
(b) If at any time, the Target Price for any Purchased Loan (as applied to the related Transaction) shall be greater than the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Security or Purchased Loan (a “Margin Excess”), then Seller may by notice to Buyer require Buyer to transfer to Seller cash in an amount (expressed in dollars) up to the Margin Excess; provided, that any such transfer of cash (1) shall be subject to the restriction that, when calculated on an aggregate basis with other Purchased Loans, there may be no Margin Deficit either created or increased as the result of such transfer of cash, (2) shall not be in any amount less than $500,000 and (3) shall be evidenced by amended and restated Confirmations and any other documentation as reasonably required.

The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights under Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date. Buyer and Seller agree that any failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights under Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall not limit such party’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for such party.
(d) Any cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to Section 4(a) of this Agreement with respect to any Purchased Loans shall be attributed to such Purchased Loan for which there was a Margin Deficit.
5. INCOME PAYMENTS AND PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS

(b) Seller shall deliver to each Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower under a Purchased Loan an irrevocable direction letter in the form attached as Exhibit IX to this Agreement instructing the Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower to pay all amounts payable under the related Purchased Loan to the Cash Management Account and shall provide to Buyer proof of such delivery. If a Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower forwards any Income with respect to a Purchased Loan to Seller rather than directly to the Cash Management Account, Seller shall (i) deliver an additional irrevocable direction letter to the applicable Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower and make other commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower to forward such amounts directly to the Cash Management Account and (ii) deposit in the Cash Management Account any such amounts by not later than the Business Day after receipt thereof.
(c) So long as no Event of Default (other than with respect to Buyer) with respect to any Purchased Loan shall have occurred and be continuing, all Income (other than Principal Payments and net sale proceeds) received by the Depository in respect of the Purchased Loans and the associated Hedging Transactions during each Collection Period shall be applied by the Depository on the related Remittance Date as follows:
(i) | first, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price Differential which has accrued and is outstanding as of such Remittance Date; and |
(ii) | second, to remit to Seller the remainder, if any. |
(d) So long as no Event of Default (other than with respect to Buyer) with respect to any Purchased Loan shall have occurred, any Income received by the Depository constituting Principal Payments and any net sale proceeds in excess of the related Repurchase Price in respect of any Purchased Loans which is a portion of the Income received by the Depository during each Collection Period shall be applied by the Depository on the related Remittance Date in the following order of priority:
(i) | first, to make a payment to Buyer in reduction of the Repurchase Price of the Purchased Loans in respect of which such Principal Payment has been received, until the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Loans has been reduced to the Target Price for such Purchased Loans as of the date of such payment (as determined by Buyer after giving effect to such Principal Payment); |
(ii) | second, to make a payment on account of the Repurchase Price of any other Purchased Loans as to which the Repurchase Price exceeds the Target Price (for this purpose, making such payment in the order of those Purchased Loans with the largest to smallest excess of Repurchase Price over Target Price), until the aggregate Repurchase Price for all of such Purchased Loans has been reduced to the aggregate Target Price for all of the Purchased Loans, respectively as of the date of such payment (as determined by Buyer after giving effect to such Principal Payment and application of net sale proceeds); and |

6. SECURITY INTEREST
The Buyer and Seller intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales to the Buyer of the Purchased Loans and not loans from the Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Loans. However, in the event any such Transaction is deemed to be a loan, Seller hereby pledges all of its right, title, and interest in, to and under and grants a first priority lien on, and security interest in, all of the following property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created and wherever located (collectively, the “Collateral”) to the Buyer to secure the payment and performance of all other amounts or obligations owing to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and the related documents described herein:

For purposes of the grant of the security interest pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the New York Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”). Buyer shall have all of the rights and may exercise all of the remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and the other laws of the State of New York. In furtherance of the foregoing, (a) Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause to be filed in such locations as may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby, UCC financing statements and continuation statements (collectively, the “Filings”), and shall forward copies of such Filings to Buyer upon completion thereof, and (b) Seller shall from time to time take such further actions as may be reasonably requested by Buyer to maintain and continue the perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby (including marking its records and files to evidence the interests granted to Buyer hereunder).

EACH OF BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE ADMISSIBILITY OF SUCH TAPE RECORDINGS IN ANY COURT, ARBITRATION, OR OTHER PROCEEDINGS, AND AGREES THAT A DULY AUTHENTICATED TRANSCRIPT OF SUCH A TAPE RECORDING SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A WRITING CONCLUSIVELY EVIDENCING THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT.

delivered as required in this Section 17. A party receiving a notice which does not comply with the technical requirements for notice under this Section may elect to waive any deficiencies and treat the notice as having been properly given.
18. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY
This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.
19. NON-ASSIGNABILITY
(a) The rights and obligations of the Seller under the Transaction Documents and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by the Seller without the prior written consent of the Buyer.
(b) Buyer shall be entitled to assign its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents and/or under any Transaction to any other Person or issue one or more participation interests with respect to any or all of the Transactions and, in connection therewith, may bifurcate or allocate (i.e. senior/subordinate) amounts due to Buyer; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall act as exclusive agent for all assignees and participants in any dealings with Seller in connection with such Transactions and (ii) Seller shall not be obligated to deal directly with any party other than Buyer in connection with such Transactions, or to pay or reimburse Buyer for any costs that would not have been incurred by Buyer had no participation interests in such Transactions been issued. Seller shall cooperate with any reasonable request of Buyer in connection with any such assignment or participation.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Transaction Documents and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

21. NO WAIVERS, ETC.
No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or

FINAL VERSION
waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 4(a) or 4(b) hereof will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.
22. USE OF EMPLOYEE PLAN ASSETS
(a) If assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) are intended to be used by either party hereto (the “Plan Party”) in a Transaction, the Plan Party shall so notify the other party prior to the Transaction. The Plan Party shall represent in writing to the other party that the Transaction does not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and the other party may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to proceed.
(b) Subject to the last sentence of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, any such Transaction shall proceed only if Seller furnishes or has furnished to Buyer its most recent available audited financial statement and its most recent subsequent unaudited financial statement.
(c) By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Paragraph, Seller shall be deemed (i) to represent to Buyer that since the date of Seller’s latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in Seller’s financial condition which Seller has not disclosed to Buyer, and (ii) to agree to provide Buyer with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as it is a Seller in any outstanding Transaction involving a Plan Party.
23. INTENT
(a) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of Securities subject to such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).
(b) It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Securities delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 11 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.
(c) The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

FINAL VERSION
(d) It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).
24. DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS
The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:
(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;
(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and
(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.
25. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
(a) Each party irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States Federal or New York State court sitting in Manhattan, and any appellate court from any such court, solely for the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding brought to enforce its obligations under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction under this Agreement and (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and any right of jurisdiction on account of its place of residence or domicile.
(b) To the extent that either party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, such party hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of any action brought to enforce its obligations under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction under this Agreement.
(c) The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding and

FINAL VERSION
irrevocably consent to the service of any summons and complaint and any other process by the mailing of copies of such process to them at their respective address specified herein. The parties hereby agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Section 25 shall affect the right of the Buyer to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Buyer to bring any action or proceeding against the Seller or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.
(d) EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT DELIVERED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.
26. NO RELIANCE
Each of Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to the other that, in connection with the negotiation of, the entering into, and the performance under, the Transaction Documents and each Transaction thereunder:
(a) It is not relying (for purposes of making any investment decision or otherwise) upon any advice, counsel or representations (whether written or oral) of the other party to the Transaction Documents, other than the representations expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents;
(b) It has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent that it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own investment, hedging and trading decisions (including decisions regarding the suitability of any Transaction) based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such advisors as it has deemed necessary and not upon any view expressed by the other party;
(c) It is a sophisticated and informed Person that has a full understanding of all the terms, conditions and risks (economic and otherwise) of the Transaction Documents and each Transaction thereunder and is capable of assuming and willing to assume (financially and otherwise) those risks;
(d) It is entering into the Transaction Documents and each Transaction thereunder for the purposes of managing its borrowings or investments or hedging its underlying assets or liabilities and not for purposes of speculation; and
(e) It is not acting as a fiduciary or financial, investment or commodity trading advisor for the other party and has not given the other party (directly or indirectly through any other Person) any assurance, guaranty or representation whatsoever as to the merits (either legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial accounting or otherwise) of the Transaction Documents or any Transaction thereunder.

based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Loans.

(b) The headings in the Transaction Documents are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of the Transaction Documents.
(c) Without limiting the rights and remedies of Buyer under the Transaction Documents, Seller shall pay Buyer’s reasonable actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of accountants, attorneys and advisors, incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and consummation of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, the Transaction Documents and the Transactions thereunder. Seller agrees to pay Buyer on demand all costs and expenses (including reasonable expenses for legal services of every kind) of any subsequent enforcement of any of the provisions hereof, or of the performance by Buyer of any obligations of Seller in respect of the Purchased Loans, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral and for the custody, care or preservation of the Collateral (including insurance costs) and defending or asserting rights and claims of Buyer in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise. In addition, Seller agrees to pay Buyer on demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable expenses for legal services) incurred in connection with the maintenance of the Cash Management Account and registering the Collateral in the name of Buyer or its nominee. All such expenses shall be recourse obligations of Seller to Buyer under this Agreement.
(d) Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

(g) Should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed against any Person by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the Person who itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties have participated in the preparation of this Agreement.

EXHIBIT VI
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
REGARDING EACH INDIVIDUAL PURCHASED LOAN
1. Purchased Loan Schedule and Collateral Information. As of the Purchase Date, the information set forth in the Purchased Loan Schedule and the Collateral Information is complete, true and correct in all material respects.
2. Whole Loan; Ownership of Purchased Loans. Each Purchased Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a whole loan. Immediately prior to the transfer to the Buyer of the Purchased Loans, the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Purchased Loan. The Seller has full right, power and authority to transfer and assign each of the Purchased Loans to or at the direction of the Buyer and has validly and effectively conveyed (or caused to be conveyed) to the Buyer or its designee all of the Seller’s legal and beneficial interest in and to the Purchased Loans free and clear of any and all pledges, liens, charges, security interests and/or other encumbrances. The sale of the Purchased Loans to the Buyer or its designee does not require the Seller to obtain any governmental or regulatory approval or consent that has not been obtained.
3. Payment Record. No scheduled payment of principal and interest under any Purchased Loan was 30 days or more past due as of the Purchase Date without giving effect to any applicable grace period, and no Purchased Loan was 30 days or more delinquent in the twelve-month period immediately preceding the Purchase Date.
4. Lien; Valid Assignment. The Mortgage related to and delivered in connection with each Purchased Loan constitutes a valid and, subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph 13 below, enforceable first priority lien upon the related Mortgaged Property, prior to all other liens and encumbrances, except for:
(a) the lien for current real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable,
(b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters that are of public record and/or are referred to in the related lender’s title insurance policy,
(c) exceptions and exclusions specifically referred to in such lender’s title insurance policy, and (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject, none of which matters referred to in clauses (b), (c) or
(d) materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the marketability or current use of the Mortgaged Property or the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate operating income sufficient to service the Purchased Loan debt (the foregoing items (a) through (d) being herein referred to as the “Permitted Encumbrances”).
FINAL VERSION
The related assignment of such Mortgage executed and delivered in favor of the Buyer is in recordable form and constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment, sufficient to convey to the assignee named therein all of the assignor’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Mortgage. Such Mortgage, together with any separate security agreements, chattel mortgages or equivalent instruments, establishes and creates a valid and, subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph 13 below, enforceable security interest in favor of the holder thereof in all of the related Mortgagor’s personal property used in, and reasonably necessary to operate the related Mortgaged Property. A Uniform Commercial Code financing statement has been filed and/or recorded in all places necessary to perfect a valid security interest in such personal property, and such security interest is a first or second priority security interest, subject to any prior purchase money security interest in such personal property and any personal property leases applicable to such personal property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection.
5. Assignment of Leases and Rents. The assignment of leases and rents (“Assignment of Rents”) set forth in the Mortgage (or in a separate instrument) and related to and delivered in connection with each Purchased Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and, subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph 13 below, enforceable first or second priority perfected lien and first or second priority perfected security interest in the related Mortgagor’s interest in all leases, sub-leases, licenses or other agreements pursuant to which any person is entitled to occupy, use or possess all or any portion of the real property subject to the related Mortgage, and each assignor thereunder has the full right to assign the same. The related assignment of any Assignment of Leases, not included in a Mortgage, executed and delivered in favor of the Buyer is in recordable form and constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment, sufficient to convey to the assignee named therein all of the assignor’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Assignment of Leases.
6. Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. No Mortgage has been satisfied, canceled, rescinded or subordinated in whole or in material part, and the related Mortgaged Property has not been released by Seller from the lien of such Mortgage, in whole or in material part, nor has any instrument been executed by Seller that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation, subordination, rescission or release except for any partial reconveyances of portions of the real property that do not materially adversely affect the value of the property. None of the terms of any Mortgage Note, Mortgage or Assignment of Leases have been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments, all of which are included in the related Mortgage File.
7. Condition of Property; Condemnation. Except as set forth in an engineering report prepared in connection with the origination of the related Purchased Loan, each Mortgaged Property is, to the Seller’s knowledge, free and clear of any damage that would materially and adversely affect its value as security for the related Purchased Loan (normal wear and tear excepted). The Seller has received no notice of any pending or threatened proceeding for the condemnation of all or any material portion of any Mortgaged Property. To the Seller’s knowledge (based on surveys and/or title insurance obtained in connection with the origination of the Purchased Loans to the extent received) as of the date of the origination of each Purchased

FINAL VERSION
Loan, all of the material improvements on the related Mortgaged Property which were considered in determining the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of such property, except for encroachments that are insured against by the lender’s title insurance policy referred to herein or that do not materially and adversely affect the value or marketability of such Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties materially encroached upon such Mortgaged Property so as to materially and adversely affect the value or marketability of such Mortgaged Property, except those encroachments that are insured against by the Title Policy referred to herein.
8. Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property is covered by an American Land Title Association (or an equivalent form thereof as adopted in the applicable jurisdiction) lender’s or owner’s title insurance policy (the “Title Policy”), as the case may be, in the original principal amount of the related Purchased Loan after all advances of principal. Each Title Policy insures that the related Mortgage is a valid first priority lien on such Mortgaged Property, subject only to the exceptions stated therein (or an escrow letter or a marked up title insurance commitment on which the required premium has been paid exists which evidences that such Title Policy will be issued). Each Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and, to the Seller’s knowledge, no material claims have been made thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. No holder of the related Mortgage has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Immediately following the transfer and assignment of the related Purchased Loan to the Buyer, such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) will inure to the benefit of the Buyer without the consent of or notice to the insurer.
9. No Holdbacks. The proceeds of each Purchased Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no obligation for future advances with respect thereto. With respect to each Purchased Loan, any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any funds escrowed for such purpose that were to have been complied with on or before the Purchase Date have been complied with, or any such funds so escrowed have not been released.
10. Mortgage Provisions. To the extent applicable, the Mortgage Note or Mortgage for each Purchased Loan, together with applicable state law, contains customary and enforceable provisions for comparable mortgaged properties similarly situated (subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph 13) such as would be expected to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the related Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby.
11. Buyer under Deed of Trust. To the extent applicable, if any Mortgage is a deed of trust, (1) a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, is properly designated and serving under such Mortgage, and (2) no fees or expenses are payable to such trustee by the Seller, the Buyer or any transferee thereof except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the related Mortgagor or in connection with any full or partial release of the related Mortgaged Property or related security for the related Purchased Loan.

FINAL VERSION
12. Environmental Conditions. An environmental site assessment (or an update of a previous assessment) was performed with respect to each Mortgaged Property in connection with the origination of the related Purchased Loan, a report of each such assessment (an “Environmental Report”) has been delivered to the Buyer, and to Seller’s knowledge there is no material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting any Mortgaged Property that was not disclosed in such report. Each Mortgage contains customary terms requiring the related Mortgagor to comply with all applicable federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Where such assessment disclosed the existence of a material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting any Mortgaged Property, (i) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance, (ii) the related Mortgagor was required either to provide additional security and/or to obtain an operations and maintenance plan or (iii) the related Mortgagor provided evidence that applicable federal, state or local governmental authorities would not take any action, or require the taking of any action, in respect of such condition or circumstance. The related Purchased Loan Documents contain provisions pursuant to which the related borrower or a principal of such borrower has agreed to indemnify the mortgagee for damages resulting from violations of any applicable Environmental Laws.
13. Loan Document Status. Each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other agreement that evidences or secures a Purchased Loan and that was executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and there is no valid defense, counterclaim or right of offset or rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to such Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other agreements.
14. Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by (a) a customary fire and extended perils insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of such Purchased Loan providing coverage against loss or damage sustained by reason of fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a strike, civil commotion, aircraft, vehicles and smoke, and, to the extent required as of the date of origination by the originator of such Purchased Loan consistent with its normal commercial mortgage lending practices, against other risks insured against by persons operating like properties in the locality of the Mortgaged Property in an amount not less than the lesser of the principal balance of the related Purchased Loan and the replacement cost (not allowing for depreciation) of the Mortgaged Property, and not less than the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property; (b) a customary business interruption or rental loss insurance policy, in an amount at least equal to six months of operations of the Mortgaged Property (other than manufactured housing communities); (c) a customary flood insurance policy (if any portion of the Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards) and (d) a customary comprehensive general liability insurance policy in amounts as are generally required by commercial mortgage lenders, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence. Such insurance policy contains a standard mortgagee clause that names

FINAL VERSION
the Mortgagee as an additional insured and that requires at least thirty days’ (in the case of termination or cancellation other than for nonpayment of premiums) and at least ten days’ (in the case of termination or cancellation for nonpayment of premiums) prior notice to the holder of the Mortgage, and no such notice has been received, including any notice of nonpayment of premiums, that has not been cured. Each Mortgage obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, upon such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor. Other than as set forth in paragraph 17(h) hereof, each Mortgage provides that casualty insurance proceeds will be applied either to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or to the reduction or defeasance of the principal amount of the Purchased Loan.
15. Taxes and Assessments. There are no delinquent or unpaid taxes or assessments (including assessments payable in future installments), or other outstanding charges affecting any Mortgaged Property which are or may become a lien of priority equal to or higher than the lien of the related Mortgage except for any such taxes as are being appropriately contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and with respect to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real property taxes and assessments shall not be considered unpaid until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be first payable thereon.
16. Mortgagor Bankruptcy. To the knowledge of the Seller, no Mortgagor is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.
17. Leasehold Estate. Each Mortgaged Property consists of the related Mortgagor’s fee simple estate in real estate or, if the related Purchased Loan is secured in whole or in part by the interest of a Mortgagor as a lessee under a ground lease of a Mortgaged Property (a “Ground Lease”), by the related Mortgagor’s interest in the Ground Lease but not by the related fee interest in such Mortgaged Property (the “Fee Interest”). With respect to any Purchased Loan secured by a Ground Lease but not by the related Fee Interest:
a. | Such Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been duly recorded; such Ground Lease (or the related estoppel letter or lender protection agreement between the Seller and related lessor) permits the current use of the Mortgaged Property and permits the interest of the lessee thereunder to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would adversely effect the security provided by the related Mortgage by limiting in any way its current use; and there has been no material change in the payment terms of such Ground Lease since the origination of the related Purchased Loan, with the exception of material changes reflected in written instruments that are a part of the related Mortgage File; |
b. | The lessee’s interest in such Ground Lease is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the related Mortgage, other than Permitted Encumbrances; |
5
FINAL VERSION
c. | The Mortgagor’s interest in such Ground Lease is assignable to the Buyer and its successors and assigns upon notice to, but without the consent of, the lessor thereunder (or, if such consent is required, it has been obtained prior to the Purchase Date) and, in the event that it is so assigned, is further assignable by the Buyer and its successors and assigns upon notice to, but without the need to obtain the consent of, such lessor; |
d. | Such Ground Lease is in full force and effect, and the Seller has received no notice that an event of default has occurred thereunder, and, to the Seller’s knowledge, there exists no condition that, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would result in an event of default under the terms of such Ground Lease; |
e. | Such Ground Lease, or an estoppel letter or other agreement, (A) requires the lessor under such Ground Lease to give notice of any default by the lessee to the mortgagee, provided that the mortgagee has provided the lessor with notice of its lien in accordance with the provisions of such Ground Lease to the extent such Ground Lease requires such notice, further (B) provides that no notice of termination given under such Ground Lease (including rejection of such Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding) is effective against the holder of the Mortgage unless a copy of such notice has been delivered to such holder and the lessor has offered to enter into a new lease with such holder on terms that do not materially vary from the economic terms of the Ground Lease; |
f. | A mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under such Ground Lease) to cure any default under such Ground Lease, which is curable after the receipt of notice of any such default, before the lessor thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease; |
g. | Such Ground Lease has an original term (including any extension options set forth therein) which extends not less than twenty years beyond the stated maturity date of the related Purchased Loan; |
h. | Under the terms of such Ground Lease and the related Mortgage, taken together, any related insurance proceeds or condemnation award other than in respect of a total loss will be applied either to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the mortgagee or a Buyer appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses (except in such cases where a provision entitling another party to hold and disburse such proceeds would not be viewed as commercially unreasonable by a prudent commercial mortgage lender for conduit programs), or to the payment or defeasance of the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Loan together with any accrued interest thereon; i. Such Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting which would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by prudent commercial mortgage lenders in the lending area where the Mortgaged Property is located; and |
6
FINAL VERSION
i. | Such Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting which would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by prudent commercial mortgage lenders in the lending area where the Mortgaged Property is located; and |
j. | Such Ground Lease provides, or the lessor has otherwise agreed, that such Ground Lease may not be amended or modified in any fashion materially adverse to the interest of the mortgagee without the prior written consent of the mortgagee under such Purchased Loan. |
18. Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments relating to each Purchased Loan that are, as of the Purchase Date required to be deposited or paid have been so deposited or paid.
19. Purchased Loan Modifications. Any Purchased Loan that was “significantly modified” prior to the Purchase Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code either (a) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Purchased Loan or (b) satisfies the provisions of either clause (a)(i) of paragraph 19 (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Purchased Loan was originated) or clause (a)(ii) of paragraph 19, including the proviso thereto.
20. Advancement of Funds by the Seller. No holder of a Purchased Loan has advanced funds or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds from a party other than the owner of the related Mortgaged Property, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by such Purchased Loan.
21. No Mechanics’ Liens. As of the date of the Mortgage, and to the actual knowledge of the Seller as of the Purchase Date, each Mortgaged Property is free and clear of any and all mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens that are prior or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage, and no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to any such lien that would be prior or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage except, in each case, for liens insured against by the Title Policy referred to herein or otherwise bonded.
22. Compliance with Usury Laws. Each Purchased Loan complied with, or is exempt from, all applicable usury laws in effect at its date of origination.
23. Cross-collateralization; Cross-default. No Purchased Loan is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any loan other than one or more other Purchased Loans.
24. Releases of Mortgaged Property. Except as described in the next sentence, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage requires the mortgagee to release all or any material portion of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage except upon payment in full or defeasance of all amounts due under the related Purchased Loan. The Mortgages relating to those Purchased Loans identified on the Purchased Loan Schedule require the mortgagee to grant releases of portions of the related Mortgaged Properties upon (a) the satisfaction of certain legal and underwriting requirements and (b) except where the portion of the Mortgaged Property permitted to be released was not considered by the Seller to be material in the underwriting of the Purchased Loan, either (1) the payment of a release price set forth therein and prepayment consideration in connection therewith or (2) the partial defeasance of such Purchased Loan.
7
FINAL VERSION
No Purchased Loan permits the release or substitution of collateral if such release or substitution (a) would create a “significant modification” of such Purchased Loan within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.1001 3 or (b) would cause such Purchased Loan not to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (without regard to clauses (A)(i) or (A)(ii) thereof).
25. No Equity Participation or Contingent Interest. Except as disclosed to Buyer, no Purchased Loan contains any equity participation by the lender or provides for negative amortization or for any contingent or additional interest in the form of participation in the cash flow of the related Mortgaged Property.
26. No Material Default. To the Seller’s knowledge, there exists no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration (and no event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute any of the foregoing) under the documents evidencing or securing the Purchased Loan, in any such case to the extent the same materially and adversely affects the value of the Purchased Loan and the related Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to any matter otherwise covered by any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in any of paragraphs 3, 7, 12, 14, 15 and 17 of this Exhibit VI.
27. Inspections. The Seller (or if the Seller is not the originator, the originator of the Purchased Loan) has inspected or caused to be inspected each Mortgaged Property in connection with the origination of the related Purchased Loan.
28. Local Law Compliance. Based on due diligence considered reasonable by prudent commercial mortgage lenders in the lending area where each Mortgaged Property is located, the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property complies with applicable zoning laws and ordinances, or constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure or, if any such improvement does not so comply, such non-compliance does not materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgaged Property as determined by the appraisal performed at origination.
29. Junior Liens. None of the Purchased Loans permits the related Mortgaged Property to be encumbered by any lien junior to or of equal priority with the lien of the related Mortgage without the prior written consent of the holder thereof or the satisfaction of debt service coverage or similar criteria specified therein. To Seller’s knowledge, none of the Mortgaged Properties is encumbered by any lien junior to the lien of the related Mortgage. Each Purchased Loan contains a “due on sale” clause that provides for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Purchased Loan if, without the prior written consent of the holder of the Purchased Loan, the related Mortgaged Property is transferred or sold.
30. Actions Concerning Purchased Loans. To the knowledge of the Seller, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or threatened before any court, administrative agency or arbitrator concerning any Purchased Loan or related Mortgagor or Mortgaged Property that might adversely affect title to the Purchased Loan or the validity or enforceability of the related Mortgage or that might materially and adversely affect the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Purchased Loan or the use for which the premises were intended.

FINAL VERSION
31. Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller have been in all material respects legal, proper and prudent and have met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial Purchased Loans for conduit programs.
32. Licenses and Permits. To the Seller’s knowledge, as of the date of origination of each Purchased Loan, the related Mortgagor was in possession of all material licenses, permits and franchises required by applicable law for the ownership and operation of the related Mortgaged Property as it was then operated.
33. Non-Recourse Exceptions. The Purchased Loan Documents for each Purchased Loan provide that such Purchased Loan constitutes the non-recourse obligations of the related obligor thereon except that either (i) such provision does not apply in the case of fraud by the Mortgagor or (ii) such documents provide that the Mortgagor shall be liable to the holder of the Purchased Loan for losses incurred as a result of fraud by the Mortgagor.
34. Single Purpose Entity. The Mortgagor on each Purchased Loan with an outstanding principal balance in excess of $10 million, was, as of the origination of the Purchased Loan, a Single Purpose Entity. For this purpose, a “Single Purpose Entity” shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more Mortgaged Properties securing the Purchased Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Purchased Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage or the other related Purchased Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from any other person, and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person.
Each borrower of a Purchased Loan in excess of $10,000,000 is an entity which has represented in connection with the origination of the Purchased Loan, or whose organizational documents as of the date of origination of the Purchased Loan provide that so long as the Purchased Loan is outstanding it will have at least one independent director.
35. Separate Tax Parcels. Each Mortgaged Property constitutes one or more complete separate tax lots or is subject to an endorsement under the related title insurance policy.
36. Operating or Financial Statement. The related Purchased Loan Documents require the related borrower to furnish to the mortgagee at least annually an operating statement with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

ADVANCE PROCEDURE
Final Approval of New Collateral Which is an Eligible Security/Preliminary Approval of New Collateral Which is an Eligible Loan.
(a) Seller may, from time to time, submit to Buyer a Preliminary Due Diligence Package for Buyer’s review and approval in order to enter into a Transaction with respect to any New Collateral that Seller proposes to be included as Collateral under the Agreement.
(b) Upon Buyer’s receipt of a complete Preliminary Due Diligence Package, Buyer, within five (5) Business Days, shall have the right to request, in Buyer’s good faith business judgment, additional diligence materials and deliveries that Buyer shall specify on a Supplemental Due Diligence List. Upon Buyer’s receipt of all of the Diligence Materials or Buyer’s waiver thereof, Buyer within ten (10) Business Days and following receipt of internal credit approval, shall either (i) notify Seller of the Purchase Price and the Market Value for the New Collateral or (ii) deny, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, Seller’s request for a Transaction. Buyer’s failure to respond to Seller within ten (10) Business Days, as applicable, shall be deemed to be a denial of Seller’s request for an Advance, unless Buyer and Seller have agreed otherwise in writing.
Final Approval of New Collateral which is an Eligible Loan.
