This Pooling and Servicing Agreement is dated and effective as of September 1, 2025, among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

The Depositor intends to sell commercial mortgage pass-through certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes (each, a “Class”), which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust to be created hereunder, the primary assets of which will be a pool of commercial mortgage loans. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator shall elect or shall cause an election to be made to treat designated portions of the Trust for federal income tax purposes as two separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC” and together, the “Trust REMICs”).

The Depositor intends to sell the Certificates to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers.

500 DELAWARE LOAN REMIC

On April 7, 2023, a REMIC was formed with respect to the 500 Delaware Mortgage Loan, any REO Property with respect thereto and the proceeds thereof for federal income tax purposes pursuant to a REMIC Declaration (the “500 Delaware Loan REMIC Declaration”, and such REMIC, the “500 Delaware Loan REMIC”). The 500 Delaware Loan REMIC will be designated as the “Loan REMIC”. Pursuant to the 500 Delaware Loan REMIC Declaration, the Loan REMIC has issued a class of uncertificated regular interests (of which the Trust will own an approximately 15.4% interest) (the “500 Delaware Loan REMIC Regular Interest”) and a single residual interest (of which the Trust will own a 0.0% interest). The Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible for any tax administration with respect to the 500 Delaware Loan REMIC.

The 500 Delaware Loan REMIC Regular Interest will be held by the Trustee as an asset of the Lower-Tier REMIC.

LOWER-TIER REMIC

The Lower-Tier REMIC will hold the Mortgage Loans and the Loan REMIC Regular Interest and will issue the Class LA1, Class LA2, Class LA3, Class LAS, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LERR, Class LFRR, Class LGRR and Class LJRR Uncertificated Interests (the “Lower-Tier Regular Interests”), which will evidence the “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Lower-Tier REMIC will also issue the uncertificated Class LR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates.

The following table sets forth the Class designation, Original Lower-Tier Principal Amounts and per annum rates of interest for the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest:

Class Designation	Interest Rate	Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount
Class LA1	⁽¹⁾	$	1,881,000
Class LA2	⁽¹⁾	$	75,000,000
Class LA3	⁽¹⁾	$	442,182,000
Class LAS	⁽¹⁾	$	70,444,000
Class LB	⁽¹⁾	$	38,930,000
Class LC	⁽¹⁾	$	27,807,000
Class LD	⁽¹⁾	$	15,757,000
Class LERR	⁽¹⁾	$	10,196,000
Class LFRR	⁽¹⁾	$	15,757,000
Class LGRR	⁽¹⁾	$	11,123,000
Class LJRR	⁽¹⁾	$	32,441,658
Class LR	None⁽²⁾		None⁽²⁾

⁽¹⁾

The interest rate for each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests on any Distribution Date will be the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate for such Distribution Date.

⁽²⁾

The Class LR Interest (evidenced by the Class R Certificates) will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account after distributing the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount will be deemed distributed to the Class LR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

UPPER-TIER REMIC

The Upper-Tier REMIC will hold the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and will issue the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E-RR, Class F-RR, Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates, which will evidence the “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Upper-Tier REMIC will also issue the uncertificated Class UR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates. The Class UR Interest will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account after all required distributions under this Agreement have been made to each Class of Regular Certificates will be deemed distributed to the Class UR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

The foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash from the Mortgage Loans to flow through to the Upper-Tier REMIC as cash flow on the Regular Certificates, without creating any shortfall, actual or potential (other than for credit losses), to any Regular Certificate. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from such intention, the parties identifying such ambiguity shall notify the other parties hereto and the parties involved will resolve such ambiguities to accomplish the intended result and will to the extent necessary rectify any drafting errors or seek clarification to the structure without Certificateholder approval (but

-2-

with guidance of counsel) to accomplish such intention, including, to the extent necessary, making any amendments in accordance with Section 13.01 of this Agreement.

“Non-Book Entry Certificates”: As defined in Section 5.02(c).

“Nonrecoverable Advance”: Any Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. For the avoidance of doubt, Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts shall constitute Nonrecoverable Advances only when the Person making such determination in accordance with the procedures specified herein, and taking into account factors such as all other outstanding Advances, either (a) has determined that such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts, would not ultimately be recoverable from Late Collections, Default Interest, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan or the related REO Property (without giving effect to potential recoveries on deficiency judgments or recoveries from guarantors), or (b) has determined that such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount, along with any other Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts (that have not been reimbursed to the party that made such Advance) or unreimbursed Nonrecoverable Advances, would not be ultimately recoverable from the principal portion of future general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

“Nonrecoverable P&I Advance”: Any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) which, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or the Trustee, in its good faith business judgment, as the case may be, determines will not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, to any Other Servicer, and with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer), the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination (other than by the Special Servicer) shall not be binding upon (but may be conclusively relied upon by) the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and any such determination by the Special Servicer shall be conclusive and binding upon the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a P&I Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any P&I Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such P&I Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining

-75-

portion of any such previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. With respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan, if any Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Trustee or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with a securitization of the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan determines that a principal and interest advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan, if made, would be nonrecoverable, such determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee as it relates to any proposed P&I Advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Trustee may conclusively rely on the non-recoverability determination of the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement. Similarly, with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that any P&I Advance with respect to a related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such determination shall not be binding on the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer and related Non-Serviced Trustee as it relates to any proposed P&I Advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan (unless the related Non-Serviced PSA provides otherwise). In making such recoverability determination, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any outstanding Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient principal available for such recovery, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the P&I Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust

-76-

any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination. Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any P&I Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance has been made or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but, in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer). The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, related income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal of the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property). The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination that a P&I Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on and shall be bound by the Special Servicer’s determination that a P&I Advance is or would be nonrecoverable. In the case of a Crossed Underlying Loan (if any), such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group.

“Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance”: Any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property which, the Trustee, in its good faith business judgment or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, determines will not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the Reimbursement Rate, from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property. In making such recoverability determination, such Person shall be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as

-77-

Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient principal available for such recovery, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, shall be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the Servicing Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of recovery of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination. Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance has been made or that any proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but, in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer); provided, however, that the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, to any Other Servicer), the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination (other than by the Special Servicer) shall not be binding upon (but may be conclusively relied upon by) the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and any such determination by the Special Servicer shall be binding upon the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a Servicing Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any Servicing Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such Servicing Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance,

-78-

such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, related income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan or related Mortgaged Property). The Special Servicer shall promptly furnish any party required to make Servicing Advances hereunder with any information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as such party required to make Servicing Advances may reasonably request for purposes of making recoverability determinations. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination that a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination that a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Special Servicer requests that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer may conclusively rely on such request as evidence that such Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request more frequently than once per calendar month with respect to Servicing Advances other than emergency advances (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). In the case of a cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan (if any), such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan. The determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance or property protection advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be made by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced PSA.

On the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Sellers may deliver one (1) omnibus assignment for all such Mortgage Loans substantially in the form of Exhibit H to the Custodian as provided in Section 2.01(b).

Each such Assignment submitted for recording shall reflect that it (or a file copy thereof in the case of a UCC Assignment) should be returned by the public recording office to the Custodian or its designee following recording or filing (or to the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent who will then be responsible for delivery of the same to the Custodian or its designee). Any such Assignment received by the Custodian shall be promptly included in the related Mortgage File and be deemed a part thereof, and any such Assignment received by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent shall be required to be delivered to the Custodian to be included as part of the related Mortgage File within thirty (30) days after receipt. If any such document or instrument is determined to be incomplete or not to meet the recording or filing requirements of the jurisdiction in which it is to be recorded or filed, or is lost by the public office or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, on or about one hundred-eighty (180) days after the Closing Date, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall prepare, at its own expense, a substitute therefor or cure such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall, at the expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller, upon receipt thereof cause the same to be duly recorded or filed, as appropriate.

-128-

pursue such confirmation at the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense, and upon such a request and provision for payment of such expenses satisfactory to the Custodian, the Custodian, at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, shall cause a search of the land records of each applicable jurisdiction and of the records of the offices of the applicable Secretary of State for confirmation that the Assignment appears in such records and retain a copy of such confirmation in the related Mortgage File. In the event that confirmation of the recording or filing of an Assignment cannot be obtained, the Custodian or the related Mortgage Loan Seller, as applicable, shall promptly inform the other and the Custodian shall provide such Mortgage Loan Seller with a copy of the Assignment and request the preparation of a new Assignment. The related Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay the expenses for the preparation of replacement Assignments for any Assignments which, having been properly submitted for filing or recording to the appropriate governmental office by the Custodian, fail to appear of record and must be resubmitted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no requirement to record any assignment to the Trustee referred to in clause (iii) or (v) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” or to file any UCC-3 to the Trustee referred to in clause (ix) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” in those jurisdictions where, in the written opinion of local counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the related Mortgage Loan Seller) acceptable to the Depositor and the Trustee, such recordation and/or filing is not required to protect the Trustee’s interest in the related Mortgage Loan against sale, further assignment, satisfaction or discharge by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or the Depositor.

(l) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge that the trust established under this Agreement is intended to be treated as a bare trust for Canadian federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the parties to this Agreement agree not to make any Canadian tax filing or take any Canadian tax position that is inconsistent with the treatment of the trust as a bare trust. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or any other party to this Agreement is responsible for any Canadian tax administration, or has any liability for any Canadian tax consequences.

Section 2.02 Acceptance by Trustee. (a) The Trustee, by the execution and delivery of this Agreement (1) acknowledges receipt by it or the Custodian on its behalf, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01, in good faith and without notice of any adverse claim, of the applicable documents specified in clause (i) of the definition of “Mortgage File” with respect to each Mortgage Loan and of all other assets included in the Trust Fund and (2) declares (a) that it or the Custodian on its behalf holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers that constitute the Mortgage Files in the name of the Trust for the benefit of all present and future Certificateholders and Serviced Companion Noteholders, as applicable, and (b) that it holds and will hold such other assets included in the Trust Fund, in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders and, with respect to any original document in the Mortgage File for a Serviced Whole Loan, for any present or future Companion Holder (and for the benefit of the Trustee as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), as applicable. If any Mortgage Loan Seller is unable to deliver or cause the delivery of any original Mortgage Note, such Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver a copy of such Mortgage Note, together with a signed lost note affidavit and appropriate indemnity and shall thereby be deemed to have satisfied the document delivery requirements of Section 2.01 and of this Section 2.02.

(b) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date (or with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan within sixty (60) days after the Due Date in the month of substitution), the Custodian, shall review the Mortgage Loan documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers constituting the Mortgage Files; and, promptly following such review (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), the Custodian shall, in the form attached as Exhibit Q, certify in writing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (so long as no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and only with respect to Mortgage Loans other than any Excluded Loan), the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Operating Advisor and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full)) that, except as specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such writing (the “Custodial Exception Report”), (i) subject to the first proviso of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein and Section 2.01, all documents specified in clauses (i) through (v), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and (xiii), if any, of the definition of “Mortgage File”, as applicable, are in its possession, (ii) the foregoing documents delivered or caused to be delivered

-132-

by the Mortgage Loan Sellers have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and appear to be executed and to relate to such Mortgage Loan, and (iii) based on such examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iv), (vi) and (viii)(c) in the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” is correct. With respect to each Mortgage Loan listed on the Custodial Exception Report, the Custodian shall specifically identify such Mortgage Loan together with the nature of such exception (in the form reasonably acceptable to the Custodian and the related Mortgage Loan Seller and separating items required to be in the Mortgage File but never delivered from items which were delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller but are out for filing or recording and have not been returned by the filing office or the recorder’s office).

(c) The Custodian shall review the Mortgage Loan documents received subsequent to the Closing Date; and, on or about the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall, in the form attached as Exhibit Q, certify in writing to each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (as to each Mortgage Loan listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any related Mortgage Loan as to which a Liquidation Event has occurred) or any related Mortgage Loan specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such writing) that, (i) subject to the first proviso of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein and Section 2.01, all documents specified in clauses (i) through (v), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and (xiii), if any, of the definition of “Mortgage File”, as applicable, are in its possession, (ii) the foregoing documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and appear to be executed and relate to such Mortgage Loan, if applicable, and (iii) based on such examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iv), (vi) and (viii)(c) in the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” is correct.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.02 and Section 2.03(b) to the contrary, in the case of a Material Defect in any of the documents specified in clauses (ii) through (v) and (x) in the definition of “Mortgage File”, which Material Defect results solely from a delay in the return of the related documents from the applicable filing or recording office and gives rise to a repurchase or substitution obligation on the part of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the subject Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Directing Certificateholder, in its sole judgment, may (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan and, with respect to any other Mortgage Loan, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event), and the Special Servicer may, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller in lieu of repurchasing or substituting for the related Mortgage Loan, to deposit with the Master Servicer an amount, to be held in trust in a segregated Eligible Account (which may be a sub-account of the Collection Account), equal to 25% of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan (in the alternative, the related Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver to the Master Servicer a letter of credit in such amount, with a copy to the Custodian). Such funds or letter of credit, as applicable, shall be held by the Master Servicer (i) until the date on which the Custodian determines and notifies the Master Servicer that such Material Defect has been cured or the related Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, at which time the Master Servicer shall return such funds (or letter of credit) to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, or (ii) until the same are applied to the Purchase

-133-

Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if applicable) as set forth below in this Section 2.02(d) in the event of a repurchase or substitution by the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Notwithstanding the two immediately preceding sentences, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer certifies to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Custodian that it has determined in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that the document with respect to which such Material Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or Additional Repurchase Obligor shall be required to repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with, and to the extent required by, the terms and conditions of Section 2.03(b) and Section 5 or Section 19, as applicable, of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be required to repurchase the Mortgage Loan for a period of ninety (90) days after receipt of a notice to repurchase (together with any applicable extension period) if it is attempting to recover the document from the applicable filing or recording office and provides an officer’s certificate setting forth what actions such Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with such recovery. In the event of a repurchase or substitution, upon the date of such repurchase or substitution, and in the event that the related Mortgage Loan Seller has delivered a letter of credit to the Master Servicer in accordance with this Section 2.02(d), the Master Servicer shall, to the extent necessary, draw on the letter of credit and deposit the proceeds of such draw, into the Collection Account to be applied to the Purchase Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if applicable, in which event, the amount of such funds or proceeds that exceed the Substitution Shortfall Amount shall be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller) in accordance with Section 2.03(b). All such funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments, at the direction and for the benefit of the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Such funds shall be treated as an “outside reserve fund” under the REMIC Provisions, which, together with any reimbursement from the Lower-Tier REMIC, is beneficially owned by the related Mortgage Loan Seller for federal income tax purposes, which Mortgage Loan Seller shall remain liable for any taxes payable on income or gain with respect thereto.

(e) It is herein acknowledged that neither the Trustee nor any Custodian is under any duty or obligation (i) to determine whether any of the documents specified in clauses (vi), (vii) and (xii) through (xviii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” exist or are required to be delivered by the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers or any other Person (unless identified on the Mortgage Loan Checklist) or (ii) to inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Mortgage Loans delivered to it to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, duly authorized, sufficient to perfect and maintain the perfection of a security interest or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face and, with respect to the documents specified in clause (viii) of the definition of the “Mortgage File”, whether the insurance is effective as of the date of the recordation, whether all endorsements or riders issued are included in the file or if the policy has not been issued whether any acceptable replacement document has been dated the date of the related Mortgage Loan funding. Further, with respect to the UCC Financing Statements referenced in the Mortgage File, absent actual knowledge to the contrary or copies of UCC Financing Statements delivered to the Custodian as part of the Mortgage File indicating otherwise, the Custodian may assume, for the purposes of the filings and the certification to be delivered in

-134-

accordance with this Section 2.02 that the related Mortgage File should include one state level UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC Financing Statement filing), or if the Custodian has received notice that a particular UCC Financing Statement was filed as a fixture filing, that the related Mortgage File should include only a local UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC Financing Statement filing). The assignments of the UCC Financing Statements to be assigned to the Trust will be delivered on the national forms (or on such other form as may be acceptable for filing or recording in the applicable jurisdiction) and in a format suitable for filing or recording, as applicable, and will be filed or recorded in the jurisdiction(s) where such UCC Financing Statements were originally filed or recorded, as indicated in the documents provided, and in accordance with then-current laws.

(f) If, in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files or at any time thereafter, the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File (1) not to have been properly executed, (2) subject to the timing requirements of Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c), not to have been delivered, (3) to contain information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or (4) to be defective on its face (each, a “Defect” in the related Mortgage File), the Custodian shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (and in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date and every calendar quarter thereafter until all Defects are corrected) by providing a Custodial Exception Report setting forth for each affected Mortgage Loan, with particularity, the nature of such Defect (in a form reasonably acceptable to the Custodian and such Mortgage Loan Seller and separating items required to be in the Mortgage File but never delivered from items which were delivered by such Mortgage Loan Seller but are out for recording or filing and have not been returned by the recorder’s office or filing office).

Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers will be required to effect (at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller) the assignment and recordation of its respective Mortgage Loan documents until the assignment and recordation of all such Mortgage Loan documents has been completed.

(g) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (i) receives a Repurchase Request or any other request or demand from any Person for a Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase or replace a Mortgage Loan because of an alleged Defect or Breach (together with a Repurchase Request, a “15Ga-1 Repurchase Request”) (the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to the extent it receives such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request Recipient” with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request); or (ii) receives any withdrawal of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request or any rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (or such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is forwarded to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer by another party hereto), then the Repurchase Request Recipient shall deliver notice (which may be by electronic format so long as a “backup” hard copy of such notice is also delivered on or prior to the next Business Day) of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase

-135-

Request or withdrawal or rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (each, a “15Ga-1 Notice”) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (other than in the case of a rejection by such Mortgage Loan Seller) and the Depositor, in each case within ten (10) Business Days from such Repurchase Request Recipient’s receipt thereof.

Each 15Ga-1 Notice shall include (i) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the date the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient or the date any withdrawal of the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient, as applicable, (iii) if known, the basis for the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (as asserted in the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request), (iv) the identity of the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and (v) a statement from the Repurchase Request Recipient as to whether it currently plans to pursue such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request.

A Repurchase Request Recipient shall not be required to provide any information in a 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. The Depositor shall cause the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to provide that (i) any 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) is so provided only to assist the Mortgage Loan Sellers and Depositor or their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii) (A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Repurchase Request Recipient and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) by a Repurchase Request Recipient, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Repurchase Request Recipient may have with respect to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request that is the subject of a 15Ga-1 Notice.

In the event that the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, such party shall promptly forward or otherwise provide written notice of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request to the Master Servicer, if relating to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, or to the Special Servicer, if relating to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a ‘15Ga-1 Repurchase Request’ under Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2025-5C37, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2025-5C37 requiring action by you as the ‘Repurchase Request Recipient’ thereunder.” Upon receipt of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, such party shall be deemed to be the Repurchase Request Recipient in respect of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and such party shall comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.02(g) with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request. In no event shall the Custodian, by virtue of this provision, be required to provide any notice other than as set forth in Section 2.02 of this Agreement in connection with its review of the Mortgage File.

If the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives notice or has knowledge of a withdrawal or a rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request of which notice has been previously received or given, and such notice was not received from or copied to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, then such party shall give notice of such withdrawal or rejection

-136-

to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. Any such notice received by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian shall also be provided to the Depositor and, in the case of a withdrawal notice, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

In the event that a Mortgage Loan is repurchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall promptly notify the Depositor of such repurchase or replacement.

is not capable of being cured within the Initial Cure Period and what actions the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller anticipates that such Material Defect will be cured within the Extended Cure Period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is not cured after the Initial Cure Period and any such Extended Cure Period solely due to the failure of the related Mortgage Loan Seller to have received the recorded document, then such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date for so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and the Certificate Administrator no less than every ninety (90) days, beginning at the end of such Extended Cure Period, that such Material Defect is still in effect solely because of the failure of the applicable recording office to have recorded as filed or returned evidence of filing the document (or made such evidence available online) and that such Mortgage Loan Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such Material Defect (specifying the actions being taken). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defect or Breach which causes any Mortgage Loan not to be a Qualified Mortgage shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders therein, and (subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure such Defect or Breach during the Initial Cure Period) such Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased or substituted for without regard to the Extended Cure Period described in the preceding sentence. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased, the funds in the amount of the Purchase Price remitted by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) are to be remitted by wire transfer to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account. In the event the Special Servicer is required to enforce the Repurchase Request related to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan under this Section 2.03(b), within five (5) Business Days of request by the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Special Servicer a copy of the Servicing File with respect to any such Non-Specially Serviced Loan.

If a Mortgage Loan Seller, in connection with a Material Defect (or an allegation of a Material Defect) pertaining to a Mortgage Loan, makes a cash payment pursuant to an agreement or a settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust (and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan or a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, in either case, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) (each such payment, a “Loss of Value Payment”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such Loss of Value Payment shall be deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to be applied in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of this Agreement. The Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan and not previously paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller. If such Loss of Value Payment is made, the Loss of Value Payment shall serve as the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders and the Trustee on their behalf regarding any such Material Defect in lieu of any obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller to otherwise cure such Material Defect or repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan based on such Material Defect under any circumstances. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust, provided that (i) prior to any such

-139-

agreement or settlement nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Special Servicer from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.03 (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan), (ii) such Loss of Value Payment shall not be greater than the Purchase Price of the affected Mortgage Loan; and (iii) a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment.

With respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan, any “Defect” (or analogous term) under the related Non-Serviced PSA shall constitute a Material Defect under each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to the extent the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller repurchases the Non-Serviced Companion Loan from the trust created pursuant to such Non-Serviced PSA; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any Defect related solely to the promissory note for any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan.

If any Breach that constitutes a Material Defect pertains to a representation or warranty that the related Mortgage Loan documents or any particular Mortgage Loan document requires the related Mortgagor to bear the costs and expenses associated with any particular action or matter under such Mortgage Loan document(s), then the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall cure such Breach within the applicable cure period (as the same may be extended) by reimbursing the Trust (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) for (i) the reasonable amount of any such costs and expenses incurred by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust that are incurred as a result of such Breach and have not been reimbursed by the related Mortgagor and (ii) the amount of any fees payable by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer to the extent not previously paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan; provided however, that if the Breach relates to a Joint Mortgage Loan, each Mortgage Loan Seller shall be responsible for its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of all such costs and expenses unless such Breach relates solely to the Mortgage Note contributed by such Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, further, however, that in the event any such costs and expenses exceed $10,000, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the option to either repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan as provided above or pay such costs and expenses. Except as provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall remit the amount of such costs and expenses and upon its making such remittance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have cured such Breach in all respects. To the extent that any fees or expenses that are the subject of a cure by the related Mortgage Loan Seller are subsequently obtained from the related Mortgagor, the portion of the cure payment made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller equal to such fees or expenses obtained from the related Mortgagor shall promptly be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after

-140-

the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and are to be remitted by the Master Servicer (or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer who shall remit such funds) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller effecting the related repurchase or substitution promptly following receipt. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, a delay in either the discovery of a Material Defect or in providing notice of such Material Defect shall not relieve the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller of its obligation to cure, repurchase or substitute for (or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to) the related Mortgage Loan if it is otherwise required to do so under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and/or this Article II unless (i) the related Mortgage Loan Seller did not otherwise discover or have knowledge of such Material Defect, (ii) such delay is a result of the failure by a party to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, to provide prompt notice as required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, after such party has actual knowledge of such Material Defect (knowledge shall not be deemed to exist by reason of the Custodial Exception Report), (iii) such Material Defect does not relate to the applicable Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, and (iv) such delay or failure to provide notice (as required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement) prevented the Mortgage Loan Seller from curing such Material Defect and such Material Defect was otherwise curable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC Financing Statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

The parties acknowledge that certain Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements may provide for an Additional Repurchase Obligor that is required to perform the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller described in this Section 2.03(b) or a guarantor of such obligations, in each case, to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, if there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase the Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (and such Mortgaged Property is, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the Mortgage Loan documents and the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such release in lieu of repurchase would not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) each applicable Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

(c) Subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure as contemplated above in this Section 2.03, and further subject to Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c), any of the following shall cause a document in the Mortgage File to be deemed to have a Material Defect: (i) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage File contains a signed lost note affidavit and indemnity with a copy of the Mortgage Note that appears to be regular on its face; (ii) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original

-141-

signed Mortgage that appears to be regular on its face, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the Mortgage and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original signed Mortgage was sent for recordation (or certified by the applicable recorder’s office); (iii) the absence from the Mortgage File of the item called for by clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”; (iv) the absence from the Mortgage File of any intervening assignments required to create a complete chain of assignments to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the assignment with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the intervening assignment and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original intervening assignments were sent for filing or recordation (or certified by the applicable recorder’s office), as applicable; (v) the absence from the Mortgage File of any required letter of credit (except as permitted under Section 2.01(b)); or (vi) with respect to any related leasehold Mortgage Loan, the absence from the related Mortgage File of a copy (or an original, if available) of the related Ground Lease; provided, however, that no Defect (except the Defects previously described in sub-clauses (ii) through (vi) of this Section 2.03(c)) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the document with respect to which the Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation; provided, further, that no Defect relating to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously described in sub-clauses (ii) through (vi) of this Section 2.03(c) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of such Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the related Mortgage Loan Seller, after receipt of notice of such Defect, is unable to produce a copy of the document with respect to which the Defect exists within a reasonable period after receiving such notice or otherwise establish that the original or copy, as applicable, of such document has been delivered, in compliance with the terms of the related Non-Serviced PSA, to the custodian under the related Non-Serviced PSA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of executed escrow instructions or a binding commitment to issue a lender’s title Insurance Policy, as provided in clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, in lieu of the delivery of the actual policy of lender’s title insurance, shall not be considered a Material Defect with respect to any Mortgage File if such actual policy is delivered to the Custodian not later than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a Mortgage Loan Seller has otherwise complied with its document delivery requirements under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, in the event that the Custodian has acknowledged receipt pursuant to Section 2.02 above of a document that is part of the Mortgage File or a Mortgage Loan Seller can otherwise prove delivery of the document, and the Custodian subsequently loses a document, the fact that such document is lost may not be utilized as the basis for a claim of a Material Defect against a Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to Section 5(a) of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and/or this Section 2.03 and the Custodian shall be liable for any such loss to the extent provided for in Section 8.01.

(d) In connection with any repurchase of, or substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Mortgage Loan contemplated by this Section 2.03, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall

-142-

each tender to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, upon delivery to each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer of a trust receipt executed by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer (other than attorney-client communications that are privileged communications), and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File that was endorsed or assigned to the Trustee shall be endorsed or assigned, as the case may be, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or Additional Repurchase Obligor in the same manner as provided in Section 5 or Section 19, as applicable, of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and, if applicable, the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, so as to vest in such Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee the legal and beneficial ownership of such repurchased or substituted Mortgage Loan (including property acquired in respect thereof and proceeds of any Insurance Policy with respect thereto) and the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e) Section 5 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements provides the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders (subject to the limitations on the rights of the Certificateholders under this Agreement), or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, with respect to any Material Defect; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee to take any action against BCHI, 3650 or FBRT, in each case, to the extent provided for pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 19 thereof.

(f) The Enforcing Servicer shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), enforce the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, if any, shall be carried out in the best interest of the Certificateholders in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Any costs incurred by the Enforcing Servicer with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall, to the extent not recovered from the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or the Requesting Certificateholder, be deemed to be Servicing Advances to the extent not otherwise provided for herein. The Special Servicer shall be reimbursed for the reasonable costs of such enforcement: first, from a specific recovery, if any, of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller; second, pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vii) herein out of the related Purchase Price, to the extent that such expenses are a specific component thereof; and third, if at the conclusion of such enforcement action it is determined that the amounts described in clauses first and second are insufficient, then pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(viii) herein out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Collection Account. Any costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees related to a repurchase of a Companion Loan shall be paid pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement or pursuant to the documents related to an Other Securitization, if applicable.

(g) If a Mortgage Loan Seller incurs any expense in connection with the curing of a Breach that constitutes a Material Defect, which also constitutes a default under the related Mortgage Loan and is reimbursable thereunder, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall have a right, and shall be subrogated to the rights of the Trustee and the Trust under the Mortgage Loan to recover

-143-

the amount of such expenses from the related Mortgagor; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller’s rights pursuant to this Section 2.03(g) shall be junior, subject and subordinate to the rights of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to recover amounts owed by the related Mortgagor under the terms of such Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, the rights to recover unreimbursed Advances, accrued and unpaid interest on Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, fees owed to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, and unpaid or unreimbursed expenses of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer allocable to such Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, shall use reasonable efforts to recover such expenses for such Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, but taking into account the subordinate nature of the reimbursement to the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, determines in the exercise of its sole discretion consistent with the Servicing Standard that such actions by it will not impair the Master Servicer’s and/or the Special Servicer’s collection or recovery of principal, interest and other sums due with respect to the related Mortgage Loan that would otherwise be payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, may waive the collection of amounts due on behalf of such Mortgage Loan Seller in its sole discretion in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(h) If (i) any Crossed Underlying Loan is required to be repurchased or substituted for in the manner described in this Section 2.03 and (ii) the applicable Material Defect does not constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Material Defect shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group for purposes of this paragraph, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall repurchase or substitute for such other Crossed Underlying Loan(s) in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group as provided in Section 2.03(b) unless such other Crossed Underlying Loans satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria. In the event that the remaining Crossed Underlying Loans in such Crossed Mortgage Loan Group satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller may elect either to repurchase or substitute for only the affected Crossed Underlying Loan(s) as to which the related Material Defect exists or to repurchase or substitute for all of the Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing the Crossed Underlying Loans shall be allocated among the related Crossed Underlying Loans in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. Except as provided in this Section 2.03(h) and Section 2.03(i), all other terms of the related Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect without any modification thereof.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the related Mortgage provides for the partial release of one or more of the Crossed Underlying Loans, the related Mortgage Loan Seller may repurchase only that Crossed Underlying Loan required to be repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.03, pursuant to the partial release provisions of the related Mortgage; provided, however, that (i) the remaining related Crossed Underlying Loan(s) fully comply with the terms and

-144-

conditions of the related Mortgage, this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, (ii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller obtains an Opinion of Counsel (at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense) to the effect that the contemplated action will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller delivers or causes to be delivered to the Custodian original modifications to the Mortgage prepared and executed in connection with such partial release.

(j) With respect to any Crossed Underlying Loan, to the extent that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to repurchase or substitute for such Crossed Underlying Loan in the manner prescribed in Section 2.03(h) or Section 2.03(i) while the Trustee continues to hold any other Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, as assignee of the Depositor, will, as set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each will be permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective related Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loans still held by the Trustee, so long as such exercise does not materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies against its Primary Collateral. If the exercise of the remedies by one party would materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Crossed Underlying Loans held by such party, then both parties have agreed in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to forbear from exercising such remedies until the Mortgage Loan documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loan can be modified in a manner that complies with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to remove the threat of material impairment as a result of the exercise of remedies.

(k) (i) In the event an Initial Requesting Certificateholder delivers a written request to a party to this Agreement that a Mortgage Loan be repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller alleging the existence of a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “Certificateholder Repurchase Request”), such party shall promptly forward that Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the Enforcing Servicer and the Enforcing Servicer shall then promptly forward the Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party to this Agreement. Subject to Section 2.03(l), the Enforcing Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to a Certificateholder Repurchase Request.

(ii) In the event that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as operating advisor) or the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder that is a Mortgage Loan Seller or an Affiliate thereof) identifies a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan (without implying any duty of such person to make, or to attempt to make, such a discovery), that party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Material Defect to each other party to this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Seller identifying the applicable Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “PSA Party Repurchase Request” and each of a Certificateholder Repurchase Request or a PSA Party Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request”) and

-145-

the Enforcing Servicer shall promptly send the PSA Party Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. The Enforcing Servicer shall act as the Enforcing Party and enforce the rights of the Trust against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a PSA Party Repurchase Request.

(iii) In the event the Repurchase Request is not Resolved within one hundred eighty (180) days after the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller receives the Repurchase Request (a “Resolution Failure”), then the provisions described in Section 2.03(l) below shall apply. Receipt of the Repurchase Request shall be deemed to occur two (2) Business Days after the Repurchase Request is sent to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. A Resolved Repurchase Request shall not preclude the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing otherwise set forth in this Agreement, in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or as provided by law.

(l) (i) After a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request regarding a Mortgage Loan (whether the Repurchase Request was initiated by an Initial Requesting Certificateholder, a party to this Agreement or the Directing Certificateholder), the Enforcing Servicer shall send a notice (a “Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, at the address specified in the Initial Requesting Certificateholder’s Repurchase Request, and to the Certificate Administrator (which shall be delivered via electronic mail to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com), indicating the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request (a “Proposed Course of Action”). The Certificate Administrator will be required to make the Proposed Course of Action Notice available to all other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. The Proposed Course of Action Notice shall include (a) a request to Certificateholders to indicate to the Enforcing Servicer their agreement with or dissent from such Proposed Course of Action, by clearly marking “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action on such notice within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice and a disclaimer that responses received after such 30-day period will not be taken into consideration, (b) a statement that if any Certificateholder disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action, the Enforcing Servicer shall be compelled to follow (either as the Enforcing Party or as the Enforcing Servicer in circumstances where a Certificateholder is acting as the Enforcing Party) the course of action agreed to and/or proposed by the majority of the responding Certificateholders that involves referring the matter to mediation or arbitration, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set forth below relating to the delivery of Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices and Final Dispute Resolution Election Notices (c) a statement that the responding Certificateholders will be required to certify their holdings in connection with such response, (d) a statement that only responses clearly marked “agree” or “disagree” with such Proposed Course of Action will be taken into consideration and (e) instructions for the responding Certificateholders to send their responses to the Enforcing Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the expiration of the 30-day response period, tabulate the responses received from the Certificateholders and share the results with the Enforcing Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall only count responses timely received and clearly indicating agreement or dissent with the related Proposed Course of Action and additional verbiage or qualifying language shall not be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether the related Certificateholder agrees or disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action. The

-146-

Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to answer any questions from the Certificateholders regarding such Proposed Course of Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator’s obligations in connection with this Section 2.03(l) shall be limited solely to tabulating the Certificateholders’ responses of “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action, and such obligation shall not be construed to impose any enforcement obligation on the Certificate Administrator. The Enforcing Servicer may conclusively rely (without investigation) on the Certificate Administrator’s tabulation of the responses of the responding Certificateholders. If (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request does not involve pursuing further action to exercise rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request and the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, or (b) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request but the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner does not agree with the dispute resolution method selected by the Enforcing Servicer, then the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or such other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner may deliver to the Enforcing Servicer a written notice (a “Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice”) within thirty (30) days from the date the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (the “Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date”) indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration. In the event (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action indicated a recommendation to undertake mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration, (b) any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner entitled to do so delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice, and (c) the Enforcing Servicer has also received responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners supporting the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action indicating a recommendation to undertake mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration, such additional responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners will also be considered Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices supporting such Proposed Course of Action for purposes of determining the course of action approved by the majority of responding Certificateholders.

(ii) If neither the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, nor any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner entitled to do so delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner otherwise entitled to do so shall have the right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, and the Enforcing Servicer as the Enforcing Party shall be the sole party entitled to determine a course of action, including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller, subject to any consent or consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08.

(iii) Promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice from (a) the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or (b) any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (each of clauses (a) and (b), a “Requesting Certificateholder”), the Enforcing Servicer shall consult with each Requesting Certificateholder regarding such Requesting Certificateholder’s

-147-

intention to elect either mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration as the dispute resolution method with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Dispute Resolution Consultation”) so that such Requesting Certificateholder may consider the views of the Enforcing Servicer as to the claims underlying the Repurchase Request and possible dispute resolution methods, such discussions to occur and be completed no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date. The Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to establish procedures the Enforcing Servicer deems in good faith to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard relating to the timing and extent of such consultations. No later than five (5) Business Days after completion of the Dispute Resolution Consultation, a Requesting Certificateholder may provide a final notice to the Enforcing Servicer indicating its decision to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration (“Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice”).

(iv) If, following the Dispute Resolution Consultation, no Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then the Enforcing Servicer will continue to act as the Enforcing Party and will remain obligated under this Agreement to determine a course of action including, but not limited to, enforcing the rights of the Trust with respect to the Repurchase Request and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration.

(v) If a Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then such Requesting Certificateholder shall become the Enforcing Party and must promptly submit the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration. If there is more than one Requesting Certificateholder that timely deliver a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice, then such Requesting Certificateholders shall collectively become the Enforcing Party, and the holder or holders of a majority of the Voting Rights among such Requesting Certificateholders shall be entitled to make all decisions relating to such mediation or arbitration (including whether to refer the matter to mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration). If, however, no Requesting Certificateholder commences arbitration or mediation pursuant to the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of its Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then (i) the rights of a Requesting Certificateholder to act as the Enforcing Party shall terminate and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration, (ii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice indicated that the Enforcing Servicer shall take no further action with respect to the Repurchase Request, then the related Material Defect shall be deemed waived for all purposes under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Material Defect shall not be deemed waived with respect to a Requesting Certificateholder, any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner or the Enforcing Servicer to the extent there is a material change in the facts and circumstances known to such party at the time when the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and (iii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice had indicated a course of action other than the course of action under clause (ii), then the Enforcing Servicer shall again become the Enforcing Party and, as such, shall be the sole party entitled to enforce the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

-148-

(vi) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the dispute resolution provisions described above under this Section 2.03(l) shall not apply, and the Enforcing Servicer shall remain the Enforcing Party, if the Enforcing Servicer has commenced litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request, or determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it is in the best interest of Certificateholders to commence litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request to avoid the running of any applicable statute of limitations.

(vii) In the event a Requesting Certificateholder becomes the Enforcing Party, the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall remain a party to any proceedings against the related Mortgage Loan Seller as further described herein.

(ix) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.03(l), the Requesting Certificateholder is entitled to elect either mediation or arbitration in its sole discretion; however, the Requesting Certificateholder shall not be entitled to then utilize the alternative method in the event that the initial method is unsuccessful.

(m) If the Enforcing Party selects mediation (including nonbinding arbitration), the following provisions shall apply:

(i) The mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty (30) days of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of mediation (such provider, the “Mediation Services Provider”) in accordance with published mediation procedures (the “Mediation Rules”) promulgated by the Mediation Services Provider.

(ii) The mediator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the state of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or CMBS matters and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Mediation Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential qualified mediators by the Mediation Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential mediators in order of preference. The Mediation Services Provider shall select the mediator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii) Prior to accepting an appointment, the mediator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

-149-

(iv) The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct an organizational conference to begin the mediation within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within sixty (60) days thereafter.

(n) If the Enforcing Party selects third-party arbitration, the following provisions will apply:

(i) The arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty (30) days of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of arbitration (such provider, the “Arbitration Services Provider”) in accordance with published arbitration procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”) promulgated by the Arbitration Services Provider.

(ii) The arbitrator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or CMBS matters and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Arbitration Services Provider.

The Arbitration Services Provider will select the arbitrator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii) Prior to accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv) After consulting with the parties at an organizational conference held not later than ten (10) Business Days after its appointment, the arbitrator shall devise procedures and deadlines for the arbitration, to the extent not already agreed to by the parties, with the goal of expediting the proceeding and completing the arbitration within one hundred twenty (120) days. The arbitrator shall have the authority to schedule, hear, and determine any and all motions, including dispositive and discovery motions, in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for non-jury matters (the “Rules”) (including summary judgment and other prehearing and post hearing motions), and shall do so by reasoned decision on the motion of any party to the arbitration.

(v) Notwithstanding whatever other discovery may be available under the Rules, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each party to the arbitration shall be

-150-

(vi) The arbitrator shall make its final determination no later than thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the hearings and submission of any post-hearing submissions.

In its final determination, the arbitrator shall determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and shall award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the parties to the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator shall be by a reasoned decision in writing and counterpart copies shall be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination of the arbitrator shall be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or state law, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(vii) By selecting arbitration, the selecting party is giving up the right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

The arbitration proceedings shall not be stayed unless so ordered by the court.

-151-

(iii) The details and/or existence of any Repurchase Request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings conducted under this Section 2.03, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the parties’ attempt to informally resolve any Repurchase Request, shall be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding (including any proceeding under this Section 2.03). Such information shall be kept strictly confidential and shall not be disclosed or shared with any third party (other than a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives, as reasonably required in connection with any resolution procedure under this Section 2.03), except as otherwise required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If any party to a resolution procedure receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for such confidential information, the recipient shall promptly notify the other party to the resolution procedure and shall provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

(iv) In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall be required to contain an acknowledgment that the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, shall be a party to any arbitration or mediation proceedings solely for the purpose of being the beneficiary of any award in favor of the Enforcing Party; provided that the degree and extent to which the Enforcing Servicer actively prepares for and participates in such proceeding shall be determined by such Enforcing Servicer in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (provided that a Consultation Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing) and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. All amounts recovered by the Enforcing Party shall be paid to the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, and deposited in the Collection Account. The agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall provide that in the event a Requesting Certificateholder is allocated any related costs and expenses pursuant to the terms of the arbitrator’s decision or the agreement reached in mediation, neither the Trust nor the Enforcing Servicer acting on its behalf shall be responsible for any such costs and expenses allocated to the Requesting Certificateholder.

-152-

shall be permitted to include such information in any 15Ga-1 Notice as it is required pursuant to Section 2.02(g).

The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall act in accordance with the Servicing Standard with respect to any action required to be taken regarding the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans pursuant to their obligations under this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 3.19, the Special Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer (i) any Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any related Serviced Companion Loans as to which a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and is continuing (each, a “Specially Serviced Loan”) or as otherwise provided herein with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans in connection with any Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision and (ii) any REO Properties (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties); provided that the Master Servicer shall continue to receive payments and make all calculations, and prepare, or cause to be prepared, all reports, required hereunder with respect to the Specially Serviced Loans, except for the reports specified herein as prepared by the Special Servicer, as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to the REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred, and to render such services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for herein; provided, further, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Special Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Master Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Special Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Master Servicer, shall not have any responsibility for the performance by the Special Servicer, in its capacity as the Special Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. The Special Servicer, in its capacity as the Special Servicer, shall not have any responsibility for the

-155-

Each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced Loan shall continue as such until satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 3.19(a). Without limiting the foregoing, (i) subject to Section 3.19 and (ii) except for the processing of any Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision by the Special Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan. The Special Servicer shall make the property inspections, use its reasonable efforts to collect the financial statements, budgets, operating statements and rent rolls and forward to the Master Servicer the reports in respect of the related Mortgaged Properties with respect to Specially Serviced Loans in accordance with Section 3.12. After notification to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer may contact the Mortgagor of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan if efforts by the Master Servicer to collect required financial information have been unsuccessful or any other issues remain unresolved.

Any provision in this Agreement for any Advance by the Master Servicer or the Trustee is intended solely to provide liquidity for the benefit of the Certificateholders and not as credit support or otherwise to impose on any such Person the risk of loss with respect to one or more of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans. No provision hereof shall be construed to impose liability on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for the reason that any recovery to the Certificateholders in respect of a Mortgage Loan at any time after a determination of present value recovery is less than the amount reflected in such determination.

(b) Subject only to the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 6.08) and of the respective Mortgage Loans, any related Serviced Companion Loans and any related Intercreditor Agreement, if applicable, and applicable law, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or, subject to Section 3.20, through one or more Sub-Servicers, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration for which it is responsible which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in its own name (or in the name of the Trustee and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder), is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders (and, with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) and the Trustee or any of them, with respect to each Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan (and, if applicable, each REO Property) it is obligated to service under this Agreement: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, and shall, from time to time, execute and/or deliver such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments as necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related

-156-

collateral; (ii) subject to Section 3.08, Section 3.18 and Section 6.08, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to, under or with respect to any documents contained in the related Mortgage File; (iii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, pledge agreements and other documents in connection with a defeasance, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments; and (iv) any or all complaints or other pleadings to initiate and/or to terminate any action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the Trust (in their representative capacities (except as set forth below in this paragraph). The Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall provide to the Mortgagor related to such Mortgage Loans that it is servicing any reports required to be provided to them pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents. Subject to Section 3.10, the Trustee shall (i) upon request, furnish to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer original powers of attorney in the form of Exhibit R-1 or Exhibit R-2, as applicable (or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and (ii) upon request, furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held responsible or liable for any acts of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, or for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not, without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, representative capacity (unless prohibited by any requirement of the applicable jurisdiction in which any such action, suit or proceeding is brought and if so prohibited, in the manner required by such jurisdiction (provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall then provide five (5) Business Days’ written notice to the Trustee of the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding (or such shorter time period as is reasonably required in the judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, made in accordance with the Servicing Standard) prior to filing such action, suit or proceeding), and shall not be required to obtain the Trustee’s consent or indicate the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, representative capacity)) or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Trustee to be required to be registered to do business in any state.

(c) To the extent the Master Servicer is permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) to exercise its discretion with respect to any action that requires Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall require the costs of such Rating Agency Confirmation to be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) require the Mortgagor to bear the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings

-157-

of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall not waive the requirement that such costs and expenses be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent that the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) are silent as to who bears the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. The Master Servicer shall not be responsible for the payment of such costs and expenses out of pocket other than as a Servicing Advance.

(d) The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

(e) The Master Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents or any related Companion Loan documents, and consistent with the Servicing Standard, permit Escrow Payments to be invested only in Permitted Investments.

(f) Within sixty (60) days (or such shorter time period as is required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents) after the later of (i) the receipt thereof by the Master Servicer and (ii) the Closing Date, (x) the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall notify each provider of a letter of credit for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) identified as having a letter of credit on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Master Servicer (in care of the Trustee, as titled in Section 2.01(b)) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and any related Companion Holders shall be the beneficiary under each such letter of credit and (y) the Master Servicer shall notify each lessor under a Ground Lease for each Mortgage Loan identified as subject to a leasehold interest on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Trust is the leasehold mortgagee, that any notices of default under such Ground Lease and required to be delivered to the leasehold mortgagee pursuant to the terms of such Ground Lease shall be delivered to the Master Servicer (who shall forward such notice to the Special Servicer), and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall service the related Mortgage Loan for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If a letter of credit is required to be drawn upon earlier than the date the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has notified the provider of such letter of credit pursuant to clause (x) of the immediately preceding sentence, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with making a draw under such letter of credit. If the Mortgage Loan documents do not require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to or assignment of the related letter of credit, then the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. If the Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to the related letter of credit, and such Mortgagor fails to pay such costs and expenses after the Master Servicer has exercised

-158-

reasonable efforts to collect such costs and expenses from such Mortgagor, then the Master Servicer shall give the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller notice of such failure and the amount of costs and expenses, and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The costs and expenses of any modifications to Ground Leases shall be paid by the related Mortgagor. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for the failure of any Mortgage Loan Seller to perform its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

The Master Servicer acknowledges that any letter of credit held by it shall be held in its capacity as Master Servicer of the Trust. If the Master Servicer sells its rights to service the applicable Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall assign the applicable letter of credit (i) to the Trust at the expense of the Master Servicer (which the Master Servicer may recover from the Mortgagor if permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents) or (ii) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan at the direction of the Special Servicer to such party as the Special Servicer may instruct at the expense of the Special Servicer. Subject to Section 6.04, the Master Servicer (solely with respect to clause (i) of the prior sentence) or the Special Servicer (solely with respect to clause (ii) of the prior sentence) shall indemnify the Trust for any loss caused by the ineffectiveness of such assignment as a result of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, negligence.

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) make an Advance with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent the related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer included in the Trust Fund.

(h) Servicing and administration of each Serviced Companion Loan shall continue hereunder and in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement for so long as the corresponding Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property is part of the Trust Fund or for such longer period as is contemplated by the related Intercreditor Agreement and, to the extent consistent with the related Intercreditor Agreement, as any amounts payable by the related Companion Holder to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement remain due and owing.

(i) The Special Servicer agrees that upon the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is subject to or becomes subject to an Intercreditor Agreement in the future, it shall, subject to Section 3.19, use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, on behalf of the Trust, subject to the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Special Servicer determines such action is in the best interests of the Trust, all rights conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to any such Intercreditor Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with such enforcement shall be paid as a Trust Fund expense or, subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, first, by any related AB Subordinate Companion Loan and then, pro rata and pari passu, by the Trust and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans, in accordance with the respective Stated Principal Balances of the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans.

-159-

(j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the servicing and administration of a Serviced Whole Loan shall continue hereunder (but not with respect to making Advances) even if the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, until such time as a separate servicing agreement is entered into in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (it being acknowledged that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be obligated under a separate agreement to which it is not a party); provided that, other than pursuant to Section 6.04 (and, with respect to Section 6.04, solely with respect to claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation and of enforcement of such indemnity, and of investigation, counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in connection with a legal claim or action resulting from an action or inaction taken or not taken while the related Serviced Mortgage Loan was part of the Trust Fund), no costs, expenses, losses or fees accruing with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan on and after the date the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund shall be payable out of the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Advance on or after the date such Serviced Mortgage Loan ceases to be part of the Trust Fund; provided, however, that if, in the case of any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan continues to be included in an Other Securitization, then for so long as a separate servicing agreement (pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement) has not been entered into, the Master Servicer shall inform the related Other Servicer of any need to make Servicing Advances with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan within three (3) Business Days of determining that such an Advance is necessary or being notified that such an Advance is necessary, or in the case of a Servicing Advance that needs to be made on an emergency or urgent basis, within one (1) Business Day. With respect to Servicing Advances made by any Other Servicer as contemplated in the second proviso to the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall, from collections on the related Serviced Whole Loan (but never out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) received by the Master Servicer, reimburse the Other Servicer for such Servicing Advances in the same manner and on the same level of priority as if such Servicing Advances had been made by the Master Servicer hereunder.

(k) The Master Servicer (or, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the Trustee (as holder of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA.

(l) The parties hereto acknowledge that each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and further acknowledge that, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, (i) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is to be serviced and administered by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, and (ii) in the event that (A) the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund created by the related Non-Serviced PSA and (B) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, then, as set forth in the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, until such time as a new servicing agreement has been agreed to by the parties to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement

-160-

in accordance with the provisions of such agreement and confirmation has been obtained from the Rating Agencies that such new servicing agreement would not result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then current ratings of any Class of Certificates then-outstanding.

(m) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan are limited by, and subject to, the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. The Master Servicer (or, if a Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain the benefits of the rights of the Trust (as holder of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement shall control.

(n) In connection with the securitization of any Serviced Companion Loan (in each case, only while it is a Serviced Companion Loan), upon the request of (and at the expense of) a related Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its designee), each of the Master Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is not a Specially Serviced Loan), the Special Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan) and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to such Whole Loan and the related notes, and that such holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(o) For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee have any obligation or authority to (a) supervise any related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Certificate Administrator or Non-Serviced Trustee or (b) make Servicing Advances with respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The obligation of the Master Servicer to provide information and collections and make P&I Advances to the Certificate Administrator for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is dependent on its receipt of the corresponding information and/or collections from the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer.

(p) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to lend money to (to the extent not secured, in whole or in part, by any Mortgaged Property), accept deposits from or otherwise generally engage in any kind of business or dealings with any Mortgagor as though the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer was not a party to this Agreement or to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that this sentence shall not be construed to modify or supersede the Servicing Standard.

-161-

Agreement (including, without limitation, the Servicing Standard); provided, that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take action to enforce the Trust’s right to apply excess cash flow to principal in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that it is obligated to service hereunder; provided, however that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall waive the Penalty Charges due to the other without waiving the Penalty Charges it is due on a pro rata basis.

the respective interests of any noteholder therein as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. Amounts on deposit in Servicing Accounts may only be invested in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and Companion Loan documents, or in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06.

-168-

assessments, insurance premiums, ground rents (if applicable) and similar items, the Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans, and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other such Mortgage Loans or Companion Loan, as applicable, that it is responsible for servicing hereunder, shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to comply with its obligation to make payments in respect of such items at the time they first become due and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items.

(c) In accordance with the Servicing Standard and for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and each Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer shall advance all such funds as are necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon, (ii) ground rents (if applicable) and (iii) premiums on Insurance Policies, in each instance if and to the extent Escrow Payments collected from the related Mortgagor (or related REO Revenues, if applicable) are insufficient to pay such item when due and the related Mortgagor has failed to pay such item on a timely basis, and provided, however, that the particular Advance would not, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and provided, further, however, that with respect to the payment of taxes and assessments, the Master Servicer shall not be required to make such Advance until the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, has received confirmation that such item has not been paid and (ii) the date prior to the date after which any penalty or interest would accrue in respect of such taxes or assessments. The Special Servicer shall give the Master Servicer and the Trustee no less than five (5) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice before the date on which the Master Servicer is requested to make any Servicing Advance with respect to a given Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property; provided, however, that only two (2) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice shall be required in respect of Servicing Advances required to be made on an emergency or urgent basis; provided, further, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request (other than for Servicing Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis) more frequently than once per calendar month (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). The Master Servicer may pay the aggregate amount of such Servicing Advances listed on a monthly request to the Special Servicer, in which case the Special Servicer shall remit such Servicing Advances to the ultimate payees. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances; provided that in an urgent or emergency situation requiring the making of a Servicing Advance, the Special Servicer may make a Servicing Advance in its sole discretion. The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer a request for reimbursement for such Servicing Advance, along with all information and documentation in the Special Servicer’s possession regarding the subject Servicing Advance as the Master Servicer may reasonably request, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated, out of the Master Servicer’s own funds, to reimburse the Special Servicer for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances (other than Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances) made by the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such reimbursement and any accompanying payment of interest shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the written request therefor pursuant to the preceding sentence by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Special Servicer. Upon the Master Servicer’s reimbursement to the Special Servicer of any Servicing Advance and payment to the Special Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with

-169-

this Section 3.03, the Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have made such Servicing Advance at the same time as the Special Servicer actually made such Servicing Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such Servicing Advance, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master Servicer would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such Servicing Advance at the time the Special Servicer did. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Special Servicer out of its own funds for, or to make at the direction of the Special Servicer, any Servicing Advance if the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such Servicing Advance, although not characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, is in fact a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer in writing of such determination and, if applicable, such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall instead be reimbursed to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement.

Any request by the Special Servicer that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance shall be deemed to be a determination by the Special Servicer that such requested Servicing Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such determination, provided that the determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer or Trustee. On the first Business Day after the Determination Date for the related Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall report to the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer determines any Servicing Advance previously made by the Master Servicer with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such a determination in response to a Servicing Advance or a proposed Servicing Advance and such determination that the Servicing Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall be binding upon the Master Servicer, but shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer in the absence of such determination to make its own determination that any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion of, and not all of, any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed Servicing Advance with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, if made, or any outstanding Servicing Advance with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Other Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. All such Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors and further as provided in Section 3.05(a). No costs incurred by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in effecting the payment of real estate taxes, assessments and, if applicable, ground rents on or in respect of the Mortgaged Properties shall, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, the Certificate Administrator’s calculation of monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balances of the related Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans or related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, so permit. If the Master Servicer fails to make any required Servicing Advance as and when due (including any applicable cure periods), to the extent the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure, the Trustee

-170-

shall make such Servicing Advance pursuant to Section 7.05. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required hereunder if such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. In addition, the Master Servicer shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior Servicing Advances for purposes of nonrecoverability determinations. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer may in its good faith judgment elect (but shall not be required unless directed by the Special Servicer with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and REO Loans) to make a payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by a Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) (which shall be deemed first made from amounts distributable as principal and then from all other amounts comprising general collections) to pay for certain expenses set forth below notwithstanding that the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer, as the case may be) has determined that a Servicing Advance with respect to such expenditure would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (unless, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans or REO Loans, the Special Servicer has notified the Master Servicer to not make such expenditure), where making such expenditure would prevent (i) the related Mortgaged Property from being uninsured or being sold at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any security for the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan; provided that in each instance, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee) that making such expenditure is in the best interest of the Certificateholders (and, if applicable, the Companion Holders), all as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans). The Master Servicer or the Trustee may elect to obtain reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances from the Trust pursuant to the terms of Section 3.17(c). The parties acknowledge that pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer is obligated to make servicing advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan (with, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon provided for under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA) in the manner set forth in the applicable Non-Serviced PSA and the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement.

(d) In connection with its recovery of any Servicing Advance out of the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Trustee, the Special Servicer and then the Master Servicer, as the case may be and in that order, shall be entitled to receive, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such Servicing Advance from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Subject to Section 3.17(c), the Master Servicer shall reimburse itself, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding Servicing Advance as soon as practically possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) subject to the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts as provided

-171-

herein; provided, however, that the Master Servicer’s or Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts shall not alter the Master Servicer’s obligation to reimburse the Special Servicer for any outstanding Servicing Advance as provided for in this sentence. To the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account with respect to the related Companion Loan are insufficient for any such reimbursement, the Master Servicer shall use efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the holder of the related Mortgage Loan under the related Intercreditor Agreement to obtain any reimbursement available from the holder of the related Companion Loan.

(e) To the extent an operations and maintenance plan is required to be established and executed pursuant to the terms of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation thereof within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which plan is required to be established or completed. To the extent that any repairs, capital improvements, actions or remediations are required to have been taken or completed pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation of such actions and remediations within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which action or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed. To the extent a Mortgagor shall fail to promptly respond to any inquiry described in this Section 3.03(e), the Master Servicer shall report any such failure to the Special Servicer within a reasonable time after the date as of which actions or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed.

Assumption, extension and Modification Fees actually received from Mortgagors on Specially Serviced Loans shall be promptly delivered to the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

-173-

In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer) or the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall:

(i) consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) all amounts then payable thereunder and (b) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

(ii) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.

(b) Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Master Servicer to the extent (with respect to Servicing Accounts) not required to be paid to the related Mortgagor and shall be subject to its withdrawal, or withdrawal at its direction, in accordance with Section 3.03 or Section 3.05(a), as the case may be. Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the REO Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer, to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for each period from and including any Distribution Date to and including the immediately succeeding P&I Advance Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Special Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.14(c). In the event that any loss shall be incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment (as to which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, would have been entitled to any Net Investment Earnings hereunder) directed to be made by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and on deposit in any of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Servicing Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or the REO Account, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall deposit therein, no later than the P&I Advance Date, without right of reimbursement, the amount of Net Investment Loss, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date; provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to deposit any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository institution or trust company satisfied the

-190-

qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Account at the time such investment was made (and such federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company is not an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, unless such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualification set forth in the definition of Eligible Account both (x) at the time the investment was made and (y) thirty (30) days prior to such insolvency).

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Master Servicer may and, upon the request of Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class shall, take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

Section 3.07 Maintenance of Insurance Policies; Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause each Mortgagor to maintain, and the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties) shall maintain, all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage Loan documents except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default (and except as provided in the next sentence with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be) or if the Trustee does not have an insurable interest. If the Mortgagor does not so maintain such insurance coverage or the Mortgaged Property is an REO Property, subject to its recoverability determination with respect to any required Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall maintain all insurance coverage as is consistent with the Servicing Standard taking into account the insurance in place at the origination of the Mortgage Loan, but only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates, as determined by the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) in accordance with the Servicing Standard (provided that any determination that such insurance coverage is not available or not available at commercially reasonable rates shall be made (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder)) (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder or the holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default as determined by the Special Servicer; provided, however, that if any Mortgage or any other Mortgage Loan document permits the holder thereof

-191-

to dictate to the Mortgagor the insurance coverage to be maintained on such Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer or, with respect to an REO Property, the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall impose or maintain, as applicable, such insurance requirements as are consistent with the Servicing Standard taking into account the insurance in place at the origination of the Mortgage Loan, provided, further, that, with respect to the immediately preceding proviso, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to maintain (or to itself maintain) insurance against property damage resulting from terrorist or similar acts unless the Mortgagor’s failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default (as determined by the Special Servicer (i) unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder)) (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), and only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the applicable servicer’s expense) in determining whether any insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates. Subject to Section 3.15(a) and the costs of such insurance being reimbursed or paid to the Special Servicer as provided in the third-to-last sentence of this paragraph, the Special Servicer shall maintain (except to the extent that the failure to maintain such insurance coverage is an Acceptable Insurance Default) for each REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) no less insurance coverage than was previously required of the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents unless the Special Servicer determines ((i) unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder)) (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), that such insurance is not available at commercially reasonable rates or that the Trustee does not have an insurable interest, in which case the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination. All Insurance Policies maintained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall (i) contain a “standard” mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), including any related Serviced Companion Loan, other than REO Properties) or to the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (ii) be in the name of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (iii) include coverage in an amount not less than the lesser of (x) the full replacement cost of the improvements securing the Mortgaged Property or the REO Property, as applicable, and (y) the outstanding principal balance owing on the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) or REO Loan, as applicable,

-192-

and in any event, the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions, (iv) include a replacement cost endorsement providing no deduction for depreciation (unless such endorsement is not permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents), (v) be noncancelable without thirty (30) days prior written notice to the insured party (except in the case of nonpayment, in which case such policy shall not be cancelled without ten (10) days prior notice) and (vi) subject to the first proviso in the second sentence of this Section 3.07(a), be issued by a Qualified Insurer authorized under applicable law to issue such Insurance Policies. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under any such Insurance Policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property or amounts to be released to the related Mortgagor, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the provisions of the related Mortgage Loan documents) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05(a). Any costs incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies in respect of Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) (other than REO Properties and other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (i) if the Mortgagor defaults on its obligation to do so, shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account) and will be charged to the related Mortgagor and (ii) shall not, for purposes of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan (if any), notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan so permit. Any cost incurred by the Special Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies with respect to REO Properties shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account). The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 shall apply to any Serviced Whole Loan as if it were a single “Mortgage Loan”. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not be required to maintain, and will not be in default for failing to obtain, any earthquake or environmental insurance on any Mortgaged Property unless such insurance was required at the time of origination of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and is currently available at commercially reasonable rates and the Trustee has an insurable interest therein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that either (x) require the Mortgagor to maintain “all risk” property insurance (and do not expressly permit an exclusion for terrorism) or (y) contain provisions generally requiring the applicable Mortgagor to maintain insurance in types and against such risks as the holder of such Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) reasonably requires from time to time in order to protect its interests, the Master Servicer shall, consistent with the Servicing Standard, (A) monitor in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether the Insurance Policies for the related Mortgaged Property contain Additional Exclusions; provided that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon certificates of insurance in determining whether such policies contain Additional Exclusions, (B) request the Mortgagor to either purchase insurance against the risks specified in the Additional Exclusions or provide an explanation as to its reasons

-193-

for failing to purchase such insurance and (C) notify the Special Servicer if it has knowledge that any Insurance Policy for a Mortgaged Property contains Additional Exclusions or if it has knowledge (such knowledge to be based upon the Master Servicer’s compliance with the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) above) that any Mortgagor fails to purchase the insurance requested to be purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant to clause (B) above. If the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such failure is not an Acceptable Insurance Default, the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause such insurance to be maintained. The Special Servicer (at the expense of the Trust) shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants in making such determinations. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the expense of the Master Servicer) in determining whether Additional Exclusions exist. Furthermore, if the Special Servicer determines that such failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver such conclusions in writing to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website for those Mortgage Loans that (i) have one of the ten (10) highest outstanding Stated Principal Balances of all of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust or (ii) comprise more than 5% of the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust. Subject to the Servicing Standard, during the period that the Special Servicer is evaluating the availability of such insurance or waiting for a response from the Directing Certificateholder or any Companion Holder or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be liable for any loss related to its failure to require the Mortgagor to maintain (or its failure to maintain) such insurance and will not be in default of its obligations as a result of such failure unless the Special Servicer is required to take any immediate action pursuant to the Servicing Standard or otherwise hereunder, and the Master Servicer will not itself maintain such insurance or cause such insurance to be maintained.

(i) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, but excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), as the case may be, required to be serviced and administered hereunder, then, to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause fire and hazard insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties or REO Properties. Such Insurance Policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, if there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a fire and hazard Insurance Policy complying with the requirements of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such Insurance Policy, promptly deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of such loss or losses that would have been covered under the individual policy but are not covered under the blanket Insurance Policy because of such deductible clause to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan), or in the absence of such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard. In connection with its activities as administrator and Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans or any Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself,

-194-

the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. Consistent with subsection (a) above, the Special Servicer, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, may maintain, earthquake insurance on REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), provided coverage is available at commercially reasonable rates, the cost of which shall be a Servicing Advance.

(ii) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by a master single interest or force-placed Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer naming the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee as the loss payee, then to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause such insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties and REO Properties. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by such master single interest or force-placed Insurance Policy, the incremental costs of such insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance. Such master single interest or force-placed policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy had it been maintained, deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the master single or force-placed interest policy because of such deductible clause, to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan, including any related Serviced Companion Loan, or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard.

(b) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s misappropriation of funds or errors or omissions. Such amount of coverage shall be in such form and amount as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. Coverage of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.07(b) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.07(b). The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall promptly report in writing to the Trustee any material changes that may occur in their respective fidelity bonds, if any, and/or their respective errors and omissions Insurance Policies, as the case may be, and shall furnish to the Trustee copies of all binders and policies or certificates evidencing that such bonds, if any, and Insurance Policies are in full force and effect.

(c) At the time the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that any Mortgaged Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) is in a

-195-

federally designated special flood hazard area (and such flood insurance has been made available), the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor (in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan documents) to maintain, and, if the related Mortgagor shall default in its obligation to so maintain, shall itself maintain to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard) and to the extent the Trustee, as mortgagee, has an insurable interest therein, flood insurance in respect thereof, but only to the extent the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan permits the mortgagee to require such coverage and the maintenance of such coverage is consistent with the Servicing Standard. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan (and any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. If the cost of any insurance described above is not borne by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall promptly make a Servicing Advance for such costs.

(d) During all such times as any REO Property (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall be located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Special Servicer shall cause to be maintained, to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard), a flood Insurance Policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration in an amount representing coverage not less than the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. The cost of any such flood insurance with respect to an REO Property shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance and if determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent sufficient funds are available prior to remitting to the Certificate Administrator for distribution to the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall pay such amount out of general collections in the Collection Account.

(e) Each of the Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement an “errors and omissions” Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s errors or omissions.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.07, so long as the long-term debt obligations or the deposit account or claims-paying ability of the Master Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent) or the Special Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent), as applicable, is rated at least “A-3” by Moody’s or “A-” by Fitch (if rated by Fitch), the Master Servicer (or its public parent) or the Special Servicer (or its public parent), as applicable, shall be allowed to provide self-insurance with respect to any of its obligations under this Section 3.07.

-196-

Section 3.08 Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. (a) As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-sale” clause, which by its terms:

(i) provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an interest in the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii) provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan may not be assumed without the consent of the mortgagee in connection with any such sale or other transfer;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer (or, with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, if mutually agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer (in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard and subject to the consent of the Special Servicer)), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall (a) exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to any sale or transfer, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) waive any right to exercise such rights, provided that (i) (A) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and no Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall obtain the prior written consent (or deemed consent pursuant to Section 6.08) of the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Special Servicer), and the Directing Certificateholder’s consent shall be deemed given ten (10) days after receipt (unless earlier objected to by the Directing Certificateholder) of the Special Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such waiver together with such other information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder, (B) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan, a Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), and (D) with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, the prior consent of the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have been obtained, to the extent required by the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, and pursuant to the process described in this Agreement (provided that in the case of clause (A), clause (B) and clause (C) such consent shall be deemed given or such consultation shall be deemed to have occurred, as applicable, if a response to the request for consent or consultation, as the case may be, is not provided within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent or conduct such consultation), and (ii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan (x) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to $35,000,000, (y) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to 5% of the aggregated Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage

-197-

Loans then-outstanding or (z) together with all other Mortgage Loans in the same Crossed Mortgage Loan Group (in the case of a Crossed Underlying Loan) or together with all other Mortgage Loans with the same Mortgagor (or an Affiliate thereof), that is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans outstanding (by Stated Principal Balance), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, prior to consenting to any action, shall obtain, a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), provided, however, that with respect to sub-clauses (y) and (z) of this sub-clause (ii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing or for which its consent is required and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related Companion Loan Rating Agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(a), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan may be assumed or transferred without the consent of the mortgagee, provided that certain conditions contained in the related Mortgage Loan documents are satisfied where no mortgagee discretion is necessary in order to determine if such conditions are satisfied, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, (i) the Master Servicer (with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Loans, if such action is not a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision) or (ii) the Special Servicer (with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Specially Serviced Loans and other than as set forth in clause (i) or related Serviced Companion Loans), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether such conditions have been satisfied.

(b) As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance” clause that by its terms:

(i) provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the creation of any

-198-

additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii) requires the consent of the mortgagee to the creation of any such additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer (or, with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, if mutually agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer (in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard and subject to the consent of the Special Servicer)), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall (a) exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) waive its right to exercise such rights, provided that (i) (A) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and no Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall obtain the prior written consent (or deemed consent pursuant to Section 6.08) of the Directing Certificateholder in the case of the Special Servicer, and the Directing Certificateholder’s consent shall be deemed given ten (10) days after receipt (unless earlier objected to by the Directing Certificateholder) of the Special Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such waiver together with such other information reasonably required by the Directing Certificateholder, (B) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan, a Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), and (D) with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, the prior consent of the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have been obtained, to the extent required by the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, and pursuant to the process described in this Agreement (provided that in the case of clause (A), clause (B) and clause (C), such consent shall be deemed given or such consultation shall be deemed to have occurred, as applicable, if a response to the request for consent or consultation, as the case may be, is not provided within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation, which may be in the form of an Asset Status Report, and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent or conduct such consultation), and (ii) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has obtained Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) if such Mortgage Loan (A) has an outstanding principal balance that is greater than or equal to 2% of the Stated Principal Balance of the outstanding Mortgage Loans, (B) has an LTV Ratio greater than

-199-

85% (including any existing and proposed debt), (C) has a Debt Service Coverage Ratio less than 1.20x (in each case, determined based upon the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if any, and the principal amount of the proposed additional lien), (D) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans (by Stated Principal Balance) or (E) has a Stated Principal Balance greater than $35,000,000; provided, however, that with respect to sub-clauses (A), (B) and (C) and (D) of this sub-clause (ii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related Companion Loan Rating Agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(b), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Rating Agency Confirmation described in the immediately preceding paragraph or in Section 3.08(a) shall be an expense of the related Mortgagor; provided that if the Mortgage Loan documents are silent as to who bears the costs of obtaining any such Rating Agency Confirmation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that is processing the related action, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to make the related Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. Unless determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance such costs not collected from the related Mortgagor shall be advanced as a Servicing Advance.

If any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan may be further encumbered without the consent of the mortgagee, provided that certain conditions contained in the related Mortgage Loan documents are satisfied where no mortgagee discretion is necessary in order to determine if such conditions are satisfied, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, (i) the Special Servicer (with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth in clause (ii))), and (ii) the Master Servicer (with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Loans not involving a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine whether such conditions have been satisfied.

Upon receiving a request for any matter described in Section 3.08(a) or this Section 3.08(b) that constitutes a consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly forward such request to the Special Servicer and the

-200-

Special Servicer shall process such request (including, without limitation, interfacing with the Mortgagor) (unless the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree with respect to a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan that the Master Servicer shall process such request with respect to a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision) and except as provided in the next sentence, the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation with respect to such request or due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance. The Master Servicer shall continue to cooperate with the Special Servicer by delivering to the Special Servicer any additional information in the Master Servicer’s possession requested by the Special Servicer relating to such consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause. Unless the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request with respect to a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to process any request relating to such consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause and shall not be required to interface with the Mortgagor or provide a written recommendation and analysis with respect to any such request. If the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan that is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall obtain the Special Servicer’s prior consent (or deemed consent) to the Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, as applicable.

(c) Nothing in this Section 3.08 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee’s right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

(d) Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b) and/or Section 3.18, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or amend any term of any Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, in connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this Section 3.08. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide copies of any final waivers (except with respect to provision of any such waivers to the 17g-5 Information Provider, exclusive of any Privileged Information) it effects pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) to each other and to the 17g-5 Information Provider with respect to each Mortgage Loan, and shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, each other and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) and, with respect to a Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, of any assumption or substitution agreement executed pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) and shall forward thereto a copy of such agreement.

(e) [RESERVED].

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may not waive its rights or grant its consent (or consent to the Master Servicer taking any such action) under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause relating to any Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the provisions of Section 3.08(a) through (d) hereof without (x) (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any

-201-

Excluded Loan, the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder having been obtained if and to the extent required by, and pursuant to the process described under Section 6.08(a), (y) (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, consultation with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) and (z) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, consultation with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a). The Directing Certificateholder will have ten (10) days after receipt of notice along with the Special Servicer’s recommendation and analysis with respect to such proposed waiver or proposed granting of consent and any additional information the Directing Certificateholder may reasonably request from the Special Servicer of a proposed waiver or consent under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause in which to grant or withhold its consent (provided that if the Special Servicer fails to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Certificateholder in writing within such period, then the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver or consent).

(g) With respect to any Mortgagor request or other action on a Non-Specially Serviced Loan for matters that are Major Decisions or Special Servicer Decisions, if the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer have mutually agreed to have the Master Servicer process such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer shall not agree to such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, as applicable, the Directing Certificateholder (which consent or deemed consent shall be obtained by the Special Servicer). In connection with such consent, if the Master Servicer is processing such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Special Servicer with written notice of any request for such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, along with the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession that may be reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent; provided that in the event that the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) days after receipt of such written notice and all such reasonably requested information, plus the time period provided to any Serviced Companion Noteholder under a related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special Servicer’s consent to such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision shall be deemed granted.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.08, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, makes a determination under Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) that the applicable conditions in the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents, as applicable, with respect to assumptions or encumbrances permitted without the consent of the mortgagee have been satisfied, the applicable assumptions and transfers may be subject to an assumption or other fee, unless such fees are otherwise prohibited pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents; provided that any such fee not provided for in the Mortgage Loan documents does not constitute a “significant” change in yield pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(e)(2).

Section 3.09 Realization Upon Defaulted Loans and Companion Loans. (a) Upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan documents related to a Serviced Whole Loan or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide written notice to the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, with a copy of such

-202-

notice to the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall, subject to subsections (b) through (d) of this Section 3.09 and Section 3.24, subject to the Directing Certificateholder’s and the Operating Advisor’s respective rights pursuant to Section 6.08, and any Companion Holder or mezzanine lender’s rights under the related Intercreditor Agreement (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, on behalf of the holders of the beneficial interest of the related Companion Loan) or this Agreement, exercise reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise acquire title to the related Mortgaged Property or otherwise comparably convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of property securing any such Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and related Companion Loan, if any, as come into and continue in payment default or material non-monetary default as to which no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments, and which are not released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any other provision hereof. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall not be required to make a Servicing Advance and expend funds toward the restoration of such property unless the Special Servicer has determined in its reasonable discretion that such restoration will increase the net proceeds of liquidation of such Mortgaged Property to Certificateholders after reimbursement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for such Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has not determined that such Servicing Advance together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in any such proceedings shall be advanced by the Master Servicer; provided that, in each case, such cost or expense would not, if incurred, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Nothing contained in this Section 3.09 shall be construed so as to require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, to make a bid on any Mortgaged Property at a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding that is in excess of the fair market value of such property, as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment taking into account the factors described in Section 3.16(b) and the results of any Appraisal obtained pursuant to the following sentence, all such bids to be made in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. If and when the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for purposes of establishing the fair market value of any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or any related defaulted Companion Loan, whether for purposes of bidding at foreclosure or otherwise, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, is authorized to have an Appraisal performed with respect to such property by an Independent MAI-designated appraiser the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance.

(b) The Special Servicer shall not acquire any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.09 unless either:

(i) such personal property is incidental to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special Servicer; or

(ii) the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust (to the extent not allocable to the related Companion Loan) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

-203-

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09 and Section 3.24, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and/or any related Companion Holder, would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to such effect delivered to the Trustee) the Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard, based on an Environmental Assessment of such Mortgaged Property performed by an Independent Person who regularly conducts Environmental Assessments and performed within six (6) months prior to any such acquisition of title or other action, that:

(i) such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental consultant, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan), to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance with such laws, and

(ii) there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any currently effective federal, state or local law or regulation, or that, if any such Hazardous Materials are present for which such action could be required, after consultation with an environmental consultant, it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan), to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

The cost of any such Environmental Assessment shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance and the cost of any remedial, corrective or other further action contemplated by clause (i) and/or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance, unless it is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (in which case it shall be an expense of the Trust and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, shall be withdrawn in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement by the Master Servicer from the Collection Account, including from the Companion Distribution Account (such withdrawal to be made from amounts on deposit therein that are otherwise payable on or allocable to such Serviced Whole Loan)); and if any such Environmental Assessment so warrants, the Special Servicer shall, except with respect to any Companion Loan and any Environmental Assessment ordered after such Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, perform such additional environmental testing at the expense of the Trust as it deems necessary and prudent to determine whether the conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence have been satisfied. With respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, the Master Servicer and, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, the Special

-204-

Servicer (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall review and be familiar with the terms and conditions relating to enforcing claims and shall monitor the dates by which any claim or action must be taken (including delivering any notices to the insurer and using reasonable efforts to perform any actions required under such policy) under each environmental Insurance Policy in effect and obtained on behalf of the mortgagee to receive the maximum proceeds available under such policy for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests).

(d) If (i) the environmental testing contemplated by subsection (c) above establishes that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection (c) above of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan, and (ii) there has been no breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in or required to be made pursuant to Section 4 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements for which the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller could be required to repurchase such Defaulted Loan pursuant to Section 5 of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust (other than proceeding to acquire title to the Mortgaged Property) and is hereby authorized, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (in each case, (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event (or with respect to any Serviced AB Mortgage Loan, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an AB Control Appraisal Period, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) and (B) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) at such time as it deems appropriate to release such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, provided that, if such Mortgage Loan has a then-outstanding principal balance of greater than $1,000,000, then prior to the release of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, (i) the Special Servicer shall have notified the Rating Agencies, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), in writing of its intention to so release such Mortgaged Property and the bases for such intention, (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have posted such notice of the Special Servicer’s intention to so release such Mortgaged Property to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and (iii) in addition to the prior written consent of the Directing Certificateholder as required above, the Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights shall have consented or have been deemed to have consented to such release within thirty (30) days of the Certificate Administrator’s posting such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website (failure to respond by the end of such 30-day period being deemed consent of the Holders of the Certificates). To the extent that any fee charged by any Rating Agency in connection with rendering such written confirmation is not paid by the related Mortgagor, such fee is to be an expense of the Trust; provided that the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e) The Special Servicer shall provide written reports and a copy of any Environmental Assessments in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Master Servicer and the 17g-5 Information Provider monthly regarding any actions taken by the Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property

-205-

securing a Defaulted Loan, or defaulted Companion Loan as to which the environmental testing contemplated in subsection (c) above has revealed that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied, in each case until the earlier to occur of satisfaction of both such conditions, repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or release of the lien of the related Mortgage on such Mortgaged Property.

(f) The Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of any abandoned and/or foreclosed properties which require reporting to the IRS and shall provide the Master Servicer with all information regarding forgiveness of indebtedness and required to be reported with respect to any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan that is abandoned or foreclosed and the Master Servicer shall report to the IRS and the related Mortgagor, in the manner required by applicable law, such information and the Master Servicer shall report, via IRS Form 1099A or IRS Form 1099C (or any successor form), all forgiveness of indebtedness and abandonment and foreclosure to the extent such information has been provided to the Master Servicer by the Special Servicer. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.

(g) The Special Servicer shall have the right to determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the advisability of the maintenance of an action to obtain a deficiency judgment if the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located and the terms of the Mortgage Loan (and if applicable, the related Companion Loan) permit such an action.

(h) The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records, prepared by one of its Servicing Officers, of each Final Recovery Determination in respect of a Defaulted Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or defaulted Companion Loan or any REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) and the basis thereof. Each Final Recovery Determination shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate promptly delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) and the Master Servicer and in no event later than the next succeeding P&I Advance Determination Date.

Section 3.10 Trustee and Certificate Administrator to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. (a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), or the receipt by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, will promptly notify the Trustee and the Custodian and request delivery of the related Mortgage File. Any such notice and request shall be in the form of a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer and shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or remitted to the Master Servicer to enable such deposit, have been or will be so deposited. Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as release can reasonably be accomplished if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer notifies the Custodian of an exigency) of receipt of such notice and request, the Custodian shall release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that in the case of the payment in full of a Serviced Companion Loan or its related Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage File shall

-206-

not be released by the Custodian unless the related Serviced Whole Loan is paid in full. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.

(b) From time to time as is appropriate for servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (and any related Companion Loan), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be. Upon return of such Mortgage File or such document to the Custodian, or the delivery to the Trustee and the Custodian of a certificate of a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, stating that such Mortgage Loan (and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan), was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation which are required to be deposited into the Collection Account (including amounts related to the related Companion Loan, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.04(a) have been or will be so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Custodian to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be, with the original being released upon termination of the Trust.

(c) Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as delivery can reasonably be accomplished if the Special Servicer notifies the Trustee of an exigency) of receipt thereof, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Special Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note (including any note evidencing a related Companion Loan) or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. The Special Servicer shall be responsible for the preparation of all such documents and pleadings. When submitted to the Trustee for signature, such documents or pleadings shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale. The Trustee shall not be required to review such documents for their sufficiency or enforceability.

(d) If, from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer requests delivery to it of the original Mortgage Note for a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, then the Custodian shall release or cause the release of such original Mortgage Note to such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or its designee.

Section 3.11 Servicing Compensation. (a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan and REO Loan (other than the portion of any REO Loan related to any Non-Serviced Companion Loan) (including Specially Serviced Loans and any

-207-

Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan constituting a “specially serviced loan” under any related Non-Serviced PSA). As to each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Loan, the Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Servicing Fee with respect to any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, except that if such Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan and such Serviced Whole Loan continues to be serviced and administered under this Agreement notwithstanding such Liquidation Event, then the applicable Servicing Fee shall continue to accrue and be payable as if such Liquidation Event did not occur. The Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, from payments of interest on each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Revenues allocable as interest on each REO Loan, and as otherwise provided by Section 3.05(a). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan out of that portion of related payments, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and REO Revenues (in the case of an REO Loan) allocable as recoveries of interest, to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a).

Except as set forth in the following sentence, the fourth paragraph of this Section 3.11(a), Section 6.03, Section 6.05 and Section 7.01(c), the right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part (except in connection with a transfer of all of the Master Servicer’s duties and obligations hereunder to a successor servicer in accordance with the terms hereof). With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, the Servicing Fee shall be payable to the Master Servicer from amounts payable in respect of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain, and shall not be required to deposit in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a), additional servicing compensation relating to each Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in the form of the following amounts to the extent collected from the related Mortgagor: (i) 100% of Excess Modification Fees related to any modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Non-Specially Serviced Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement), provided that such transactions are Master Servicer Decisions, (ii) 100% of all assumption application fees and other similar items received on any Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) solely to the extent the Master Servicer is processing the underlying transaction (whether or not the consent of the Special Servicer is required), (iii) 100% of any fee actually paid by a Mortgagor in connection with the defeasance of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan (provided, however, that 50% of the portion of any Excess Modification Fee or waiver fee payable solely in connection with any modification, waiver, amendment or consent executed in connection with a defeasance transaction for which the consent, processing or approval of the Special Servicer is required under clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decision” (and specifically excluding any defeasance fees), must be paid by the Master Servicer to the Special

-208-

Servicer), (iv) 100% of assumption, waiver, consent, loan service transaction and earnout fees and other similar fees (other than assumption application fees and defeasance fees) pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18 or other actions performed in connection with this Agreement on the Non-Specially Serviced Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement), provided that such transactions qualify as Master Servicer Decisions, (v) 50% of all Excess Modification Fees and assumption, waiver, consent, loan service transaction and earnout fees and other similar fees (other than assumption application and defeasance fees), pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18 on any Mortgage Loan (other than a Specially Serviced Loan) (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement), provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision and (vi) 50% of any fees related to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision on a non-Specially Serviced Loan (other than assumption application fees, defeasance fees, liquidation fees, workout fees and any other fees separately addressed herein). In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to charge and retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or Specially Serviced Loan) any charges for processing Mortgagor requests, beneficiary statements or demands, fees in connection with defeasance, if any, and other customary charges actually paid by the related Mortgagors to the extent such beneficiary statements or demand charges were prepared by the Master Servicer, amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds with respect to the accounts held by the Master Servicer and reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents and are not charged in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, in each case only to the extent actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor and shall not be required to deposit such amounts in the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or Section 3.04(b), respectively. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Master Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d), (ii) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date), (iii) interest or other income earned on deposits in its Investment Accounts which are not required by applicable law or the related Mortgage Loan to be paid to the Mortgagor, and (iv) Prepayment Interest Excesses collected on the Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Serviced Companion Loan during the related Collection Period to the extent not required to be paid as Compensating Interest Payments. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not payable directly out of the Collection Account and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be entitled to charge and retain reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such fees are (i) not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) not charged in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the master

-209-

servicer and special servicer, and (iii) actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association may, at its option, assign or pledge to any third party or retain for itself the Transferable Servicing Interest with respect to any Mortgage Loan and any Serviced Companion Loan (and any successor REO Loan); provided, however, that in the event of any resignation or termination of Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as the Master Servicer, all or any portion of the Transferable Servicing Interest may be reduced by the Trustee to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion of the Trustee) for the Trustee to obtain a qualified successor master servicer that meets the requirements of Section 6.05 and who requires market-rate servicing compensation that accrues at a per annum rate in excess of the Retained Fee Rate, and any such assignment of the Transferable Servicing Interest shall, by its terms be expressly subject to the terms of this Agreement and such reduction. The Master Servicer shall pay the Transferable Servicing Interest to the holder of the Transferable Servicing Interest at such time and to the extent the Master Servicer is entitled to receive payment of its Servicing Fees hereunder, notwithstanding any resignation or termination of Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer hereunder (subject to reduction pursuant to the preceding sentence).

For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer may not charge a fee in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and Special Servicer.

(b) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any REO Loan relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property). As to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan, the Special Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan (but, in the case of the Poinciana Lakes Plaza Serviced Whole Loan, excluding the Poinciana Lakes Plaza Companion Loan), as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the Specially Serviced Loans or REO Loans, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Specially Serviced Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Special Servicing Fee with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.05(a). The right to receive the Special Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. Nothing herein is intended to limit the Special Servicer’s right to enter into a fee sharing agreement with the Directing Certificateholder or any other party. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Special Servicing Fees with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or, in the case of the Poinciana Lakes Plaza Serviced Whole Loan, with respect to any Poinciana Lakes Plaza Companion Loan.

(c) The Special Servicer shall be entitled to additional servicing compensation relating to each Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in the form of (i) (A) 100% of all Excess Modification Fees related to modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Specially Serviced Loans, (B) 50% of Excess Modification Fees related to

-210-

modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and Serviced Companion Loans that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision, and (C) 0% of Excess Modification Fees related to modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Serviced Companion Loans that are not Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Master Servicer Decision, (ii) 100% of all assumption application fees and other similar items received with respect to Mortgage Loans for which the Special Servicer processes the underlying assumption-related transaction, (iii) 50% of the portion of any Excess Modification Fees or waiver fees payable solely in connection with any modification, waiver, amendment or consent executed in connection with a defeasance transaction for which the consent, processing or approval of the Special Servicer is required (and specifically excluding any defeasance fees), provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, (iv) 100% of all assumption, waiver, consent, loan service transaction and earnout fees pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18, or other actions performed in connection with this Agreement on the Specially Serviced Loans or certain other similar fees paid by the related Mortgagor on Specially Serviced Loans, (v) (A) 50% of all waiver fees, assumption fees and consent fees pursuant to Section 3.08 or Section 3.18, loan service transaction fees and earnout fees received in each case with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans, but including any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision and (B) 0% of all assumption fees, consent fees and earnout fees received with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans, but including any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) that are not Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Master Servicer Decision, (vi) 100% of charges for beneficiary statements or demands actually paid by the related Mortgagor to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands were prepared by the Special Servicer, (vii) 50% of any fees related to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision on a non-Specially Serviced Loan (other than assumption application fees, defeasance fees, liquidation fees, workout fees and any other fees separately addressed herein) and (viii) with respect to the accounts held by the Special Servicer, 100% of charges by the Special Servicer collected for checks returned for insufficient funds relating to the accounts held by the Special Servicer, and shall be promptly paid to the Special Servicer by the Master Servicer (or directly from the related Mortgagor) to the extent such fees are paid by the Mortgagor and shall not be required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or paid by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer to the extent the funds are received by the Special Servicer. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d), and (ii) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the REO Account in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to such Distribution Date). In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to charge any Mortgagor for and retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents and are not charged in lieu of any

-211-

fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, and only to the extent actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of a Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected Loan at the Workout Fee Rate on such Corrected Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Loan; provided, however, that after receipt by the Special Servicer of Workout Fees with respect to such Corrected Loan in an amount equal to $25,000, any Workout Fees in excess of such amount shall be reduced by the Excess Modification Fee Amount; provided, further, however, that in the event the Workout Fee collected over the course of such workout calculated at the Workout Fee Rate is less than $25,000, then the Special Servicer shall be entitled to an amount from the final payment on the related Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) that would result in the total Workout Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of that Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) equal to $25,000. The Workout Fee shall be reduced (but not below zero) with respect to each collection on such Corrected Loan from which fee would otherwise be payable until an amount equal to the Excess Modification Fee Amount has been deducted in full. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Loan will cease to be payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when such Specially Serviced Loan again becomes a Corrected Loan. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Workout Fee with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable in respect of Mortgage Loans or any related Companion Loan that became Corrected Loans prior to the time of that termination or resignation except the Workout Fees will no longer be payable if the Corrected Loan subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced Loan. If the Special Servicer resigns or is terminated (other than for cause), it will receive any Workout Fees payable on Specially Serviced Loans for which the resigning or terminated Special Servicer had determined to grant a forbearance or cured the event of default through a modification, restructuring or workout negotiated by the Special Servicer and evidenced by a signed writing, but which had not as of the time the Special Servicer resigned or was terminated become a Corrected Loan solely because the Mortgagor had not had sufficient time to make three consecutive timely Periodic Payments and which subsequently becomes a Corrected Loan as a result of the Mortgagor making such three consecutive timely Periodic Payments. The successor special servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to receive any Workout Fees after termination for cause. A Liquidation Fee shall be payable with respect to (a) each Specially Serviced Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) as to which the Special Servicer receives any Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and (b) each Mortgage Loan repurchased by a Mortgage Loan Seller or for which a Loss of Value Payment was paid, in each case, subject to the exceptions set forth in the definition of Liquidation Fee (such Liquidation Fee to be paid out of such Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds). If, however, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds are received with respect to any Corrected Loan and the Special Servicer is properly entitled to a Workout Fee, such Workout Fee will be payable based on and out of the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or interest on such Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause), and it has commenced the process of liquidation of the Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, it shall receive a portion of any Liquidation Fee that becomes payable with respect to the Specially Serviced Loan or the REO

-212-

Property that was being administered by the Special Servicer at the time of such resignation or termination. The terminated Special Servicer and the successor special servicer shall apportion the Liquidation Fee between themselves in a manner that reflects their relative contributions in earning the fee; provided that if the terminated Special Servicer and the successor special servicer cannot agree on an apportionment of the Liquidation Fee, the Liquidation Fee shall be apportioned on the basis of the number of months that each administered such Specially Serviced Loan, over a period commencing on the date the Mortgage Loan became a Specially Serviced Loan and ending on the date of the final liquidation of the Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee or a Workout Fee, but not both, with respect to proceeds on any Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Companion Loan, the Liquidation Fee, Workout Fee and Special Servicing Fees, if any, will be computed as provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement or to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement is silent or refers to this Agreement or indicates such fees are paid in accordance with this Agreement, as provided herein as though such Companion Loan were a Mortgage Loan. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer will also be entitled to additional fees in the form of Penalty Charges. The Special Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts, other than management fees in respect of REO Properties, due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy obtained by it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not expressly payable directly out of the Collection Account or the REO Account, and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof (other than a fee split with respect to Penalty Charges), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in their sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge only its respective portion of such fee; provided, that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge only its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee shall not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee. If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee (other than Penalty Charges), the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. Similarly, if the Special Servicer decides not to charge any fee (other than Penalty Charges), the Master Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had charged a fee and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such fee charged by the Master Servicer.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may not charge a fee in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and Special Servicer.

(d) In determining the compensation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to Penalty Charges, on any Distribution Date, the aggregate

-213-

Penalty Charges collected on any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan (other than the Poinciana Lakes Plaza Companion Loan) since the prior Distribution Date shall be applied (in such order) to reimburse (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee for interest on Advances on such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee for interest on the servicing advances made by any such party with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) due on such Distribution Date, (ii) the Trust for all interest on Advances previously paid to the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vi) (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related trust for all interest on servicing advances reimbursed by such trust to any party under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, which resulted in an additional expense for the Trust, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable and (iii) the Trust for all additional expenses of the Trust (other than Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees), including without limitation, inspections by the Special Servicer and all unpaid Advances incurred since the Closing Date with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Penalty Charges (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, which shall be payable as additional servicing compensation under the related Non-Serviced PSA) remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Master Servicer, if and to the extent accrued while such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan was a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, and to the Special Servicer, if and to the extent accrued on such Mortgage Loan during the period such Mortgage Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan. Any Penalty Charges paid or payable as additional servicing compensation to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be distributed between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, on a pro rata basis, based on the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s respective entitlements to such compensation described in the previous sentence. If the Special Servicer has partially waived any Penalty Charge (part of which accrued prior to the related Servicing Transfer Event), any collections in respect of such Penalty Charge shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charge to which each would otherwise have been entitled (provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be permitted to waive only the Penalty Charges to which the other would be entitled, but not waive Penalty Charges to which it is entitled). If the Master Servicer has partially waived any Penalty Charge (part of which accrued subsequent to the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event and prior to the date such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan became a Corrected Loan), any collections in respect of such Penalty Charge shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charge to which each would otherwise have been entitled (provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be permitted to waive only the Penalty Charges to which the other would be entitled, but not waive Penalty Charges to which it is entitled). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, Penalty Charges with respect to any Companion Loan (other than the Poinciana Lakes Plaza Companion Loan) will be allocated pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement after payment of all related Advances and interest thereon and additional expenses of the Trust in accordance with this Section 3.11(d). The Master Servicer may not waive any fee or compensation due to the Special Servicer without

-214-

the Special Servicer’s consent. The Special Servicer may not waive any fee or compensation due to the Master Servicer without the Master Servicer’s consent.

If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Date, the Special Servicer shall service and administer such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and any related REO Property in the same manner as any other Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Property and shall be entitled to all rights and compensation earned with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan as the Special Servicer of such Serviced Whole Loan. With respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Date, no other special servicer shall be entitled to any such compensation or have such rights and obligations. If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan is still a Specially Serviced Loan on the applicable Servicing Shift Date, (a) the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation for the period during which it acted as Special Servicer with respect to such Whole Loan, including its share of any liquidation or workout fees and any additional servicing compensation as well as all surviving indemnity and other rights in respect of such special servicing role under this Agreement and (b) the Non-Serviced Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan as if the Special Servicer were being terminated as the Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and the Non-Serviced Special Servicer were replacing the Special Servicer as the successor Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan.

(e) With respect to each Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer within two (2) Business Days following the Determination Date, and the Master Servicer shall deliver, to the extent it has received, to the Certificate Administrator, without charge and on the related Remittance Date, an electronic report (which may include HTML, Word or Excel compatible format, clean and searchable PDF format or such other format as mutually agreeable between the Certificate Administrator and the Special Servicer) that discloses and contains an itemized listing of any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date; provided that no such report shall be due in any month during which no Disclosable Special Servicer Fees were received.

(f) The Special Servicer and its Affiliates shall be prohibited from receiving or retaining any compensation or any other remuneration (including, without limitation, in the form of commissions, brokerage fees, rebates, or as a result of any other fee-sharing arrangement) from any Person (including, without limitation, the Trust, any Mortgagor, any property manager, any guarantor or indemnitor in respect of a Mortgage Loan and any purchaser of any Mortgage Loan or REO Property) in connection with the disposition, workout or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan, the management or disposition of any REO Property, or the performance of any other special servicing duties under this Agreement, other than as expressly provided in this Section 3.11; provided that such prohibition shall not apply to Permitted Special Servicer/Affiliate Fees.

(g) Pursuant to the CREFC^® License Agreement, CREFC^® shall be paid (according to the payment instructions set forth on Exhibit JJ or such other payment instructions as CREFC^® may provide to the Master Servicer in writing at least two Business Days prior to the Remittance Date) the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee on a monthly basis. The

-215-

Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and, to the extent sufficient funds are on deposit therein, pay the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee to CREFC^® in accordance with Section 3.05(a)(xiii) on a monthly basis, from funds on deposit in the Collection Account.

Section 3.12 Inspections; Collection of Financial Statements; Delivery of Reports. (a) The Master Servicer (or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan and REO Properties, the Special Servicer) shall perform (at its own expense), or shall cause to be performed (at its own expense), a physical inspection of each Mortgaged Property relating to a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, a Specially Serviced Loan or an REO Loan) with a Stated Principal Balance of (i) $4,000,000 or more at least once every twelve (12) months and (ii) less than $4,000,000 at least once every twenty-four (24) months, in each case, commencing in the calendar year 2026 (and each Mortgaged Property shall be inspected on or prior to December 31, 2026); provided, however, that if a physical inspection has been performed by the Special Servicer in the previous twelve (12) months and the Master Servicer has no knowledge of a material change in the Mortgaged Property since such physical inspection, the Master Servicer will not be required to perform, or cause to be performed, such physical inspection; provided, further, that if any scheduled payment becomes more than sixty (60) days delinquent on the related Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the related Mortgaged Property as soon as practicable after such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan and annually thereafter for so long as such Mortgage Loan remains a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan. The cost of such inspection by the Special Servicer pursuant to the second proviso of the immediately preceding sentence shall be an expense of the Trust, and, to the extent not paid by the related Mortgagor, reimbursed first from Penalty Charges actually received from the related Mortgagor and then from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(ii), provided that, in the case of such reimbursement relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, such reimbursement shall be made, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, first, from any related AB Subordinate Companion Loan (if any) and then, pro rata and pari passu, from the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan in accordance with their respective outstanding principal balances (provided that, with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise modify the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement pursuant to which any amounts collected with respect to the related Whole Loan are allocated to the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan, any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans and the AB Subordinate Companion Loan), in each case, prior to being payable out of general collections. The Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall prepare or cause to be prepared a written report of each such inspection detailing the condition of and any damage to the Mortgaged Property to the extent evident from the inspection and specifying the existence of (i) any vacancy at the Mortgaged Property that the preparer of such report has knowledge of and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems material, (ii) any sale, transfer or abandonment of the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection, (iii) any adverse change in the condition of the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection, and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems material, (iv) any visible material waste committed on the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection and (v) photographs of each inspected Mortgaged Property. The Special Servicer and the Master

-216-

Servicer shall promptly following preparation deliver or make available a copy (in electronic format) of each such report prepared by it to the other party, to the Directing Certificateholder ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan). Within five (5) Business Days after request for copies of such reports by the Rating Agencies, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver or make available a copy (in electronic format) of each such report prepared by the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer, as applicable, to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website for review by NRSROs (including Rating Agencies) that are Privileged Persons. In respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan and prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available a copy of each such report to the Directing Certificateholder and upon request to each Controlling Class Certificateholder (which request may state that such items may be delivered until further notice).

(b) The Special Servicer, in the case of any Specially Serviced Loan, and the Master Servicer, in the case of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, shall make efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect promptly and review from each related Mortgagor quarterly and annual operating statements, financial statements, budgets and rent rolls of the related Mortgaged Property commencing with the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2026 and the calendar year ending on December 31, 2025, and the quarterly and annual financial statements of such Mortgagor, whether or not delivery of such items is required pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and any other reports or documents required to be delivered under the terms of the Mortgage Loans (and each Serviced Companion Loan), if delivery of such items is required pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall make available to the Special Servicer all such operating statements, financial statements, budgets, rent rolls and other similar items collected by the Master Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be required to request such operating statements or rent rolls more than once if the related Mortgagor is not required to deliver such statements pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan documents.

If the Certificate Administrator does not receive such CREFC^®Schedule AL File from the Master Servicer by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in the immediately preceding sentence, the Certificate Administrator shall immediately request such CREFC^® Schedule AL File from the Master Servicer via email at NoticeAdmin@pnc.com and send a copy of such request to the Depositor via email to RRcmbs@barclays.com. In preparing the CREFC^® Schedule AL File and any Schedule AL Additional File for any given Distribution Date, and without any due diligence, investigation or verification, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely, absent manifest error, on the content, completeness, accuracy and compliance with any applicable requirements of Items 1111(h) and 1125 of Regulation AB and Item 601(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act as in effect on the Closing Date of the Initial Schedule AL File, any Initial Schedule AL Additional File and Annex A-1 to the Prospectus. The Master Servicer may concurrently with the delivery of the related CREFC^® Schedule AL File, deliver any related Schedule AL Additional File in EDGAR-Compatible Format. The CREFC^® Schedule AL File and the Schedule AL Additional File shall each be a single file. Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall be required to combine multiple CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files unless, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, multiple Sub-Servicers prepare and submit such CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files to the Master Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to review, redact, reconcile, edit or verify the content, completeness or accuracy of the information contained in any CREFC^® Schedule AL File or Schedule AL Additional File. The Certificate Administrator shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge of the contents of any CREFC^® Schedule AL File or Schedule AL Additional File solely by its receipt thereof.

-220-

In the absence of manifest error, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, without investigation or inquiry, any information and reports delivered to it by any third party, and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Master Servicer’s reports and any information provided by the Trustee, without any duty or obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate any of the amounts and other information stated therein.

(e) The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer the reports and information required of the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c), and the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available to the Certificate Administrator the reports and data files set forth in Section 3.12(d). The Master Servicer may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c). The Certificate Administrator may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(d). In the case of information or reports to be furnished by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 3.12(d), to the extent that such information or reports are, in turn, based on information or reports to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) and to the extent that such reports are to be prepared and delivered by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to provide such information or reports to the Certificate Administrator until it has received the requisite information or reports from the Special Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall not be in default hereunder due to a delay in providing the reports required by Section 3.12(d) caused by the Special Servicer’s failure to timely provide any information or report required under Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) of this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by this Section 3.12 shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.12 to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may disclose any such information or any additional information to any Person so long as such disclosure is consistent with applicable law and the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(g) Unless otherwise specifically stated herein, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is required to deliver or make available any statement, report or information under any provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may satisfy such obligation by (x) physically delivering a paper copy of such statement, report or information, (y) delivering such statement, report or information in a commonly used electronic format or (z) making such statement, report or information available on the Master Servicer’s website (with respect to items delivered by the Master Servicer) or the Certificate Administrator’s Website, unless this Agreement expressly specifies a particular method of delivery.

-221-

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any required statements, reports or other information to the Certificate Administrator in an electronic format mutually agreeable to the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may physically deliver a paper copy of any such statement, report or information as a temporary measure due to system problems, however, copies in electronic format shall follow upon the correction of such system problems.

Section 3.13 Access to Certain Information. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide or cause to be provided to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall afford access to any Mortgage Loan Seller and to any Certificateholder that is a federally insured financial institution, the OCC, the FDIC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America and the supervisory agents and examiners of such boards and such corporations, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any such Certificateholder, and to each Holder of a Non-Registered Certificate, access to any documentation or information regarding the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is a portion of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan, and the Trust within its control which may be required by applicable law. At the election of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, such access may be afforded to such Person identified above by the delivery of copies of information as requested by such Person and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be permitted to require payment (other than from the Directing Certificateholder and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator on its own behalf or on behalf of the Certificateholders) of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in making such copies. Such access shall (except as described in the preceding sentence) be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian.

The failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 3.13 as a result of a confidentiality obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.13. In connection with providing information pursuant to this Section 3.13, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer may each (i) affix a reasonable disclaimer to any information provided by it for which it is not the original source (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto); (ii) affix to any information provided by it a reasonable statement regarding securities law restrictions on such information and/or condition access to information on (x) the execution of a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit X, or (y) execution of a “click-through” confidentiality agreement if such information is being provided through the Master Servicer’s website or the Special Servicer’s website; (iii) withhold access to confidential information or any intellectual property; and/or (iv) withhold access to items of information contained in the Servicing File for any Mortgage Loan if the disclosure of such items is prohibited by applicable law or the provisions of any related Mortgage Loan documents or would constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by it pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines, in its reasonable good faith judgment consistent with the applicable Servicing

-222-

Standard, that such disclosure would violate applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans or the Mortgaged Properties, constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Trust or otherwise materially harm the Trust. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may refrain from disclosing information that it reasonably determines would prejudice the interests of the Certificateholders with respect to a workout or exercise of remedies as to any particular Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding the limitation set forth in the next succeeding paragraph, but subject to the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, upon the reasonable request of any Certificateholder (or with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan related to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, the holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan) that has delivered an Investor Certification to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, may provide (or make available electronically) or make available at the expense of such Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, copies of any appraisals, operating statements, rent rolls and financial statements (in each case, solely relating to the related Serviced Whole Loan or Serviced AB Whole Loan, if requested by the holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as the case may be) obtained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that, in connection with such request, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, generally to the effect that such Person will keep such information confidential and shall use such information only for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, may have under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (other than as permitted in the preceding paragraph with respect to any Certificateholder or as specifically provided for herein with respect to the Directing Certificateholder), unless required by applicable law or court order, no Certificateholder (except, with respect to a Mortgage Loan Seller, to the extent necessary for such party to comply with its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and except for the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, acting in such capacities) or beneficial owner shall be given access to, or be provided copies of, the Mortgage Files or Diligence Files.

(k) The costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 3.13 by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and any other party hereto shall not be additional expenses of the Trust, but shall be borne by the applicable party hereto.

Section 3.14 Title to REO Property; REO Account. (a) If title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired (directly or through a single member limited liability company established for that purpose) and thus becomes REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued in the name of the Trust where permitted by applicable law or regulation and consistent with customary servicing procedures, and otherwise, in the name of the Trustee or its nominee on behalf of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of the related Companion Holders, in the case of a Serviced Companion Loan. REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.14. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, shall sell any REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Trust acquires ownership of such REO Property, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-6(b)(1), for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, unless the Special Servicer either (i) applies for a qualifying extension of time no later than sixty (60) days prior to the close of the third calendar year in which it acquired ownership (or the period provided in the then applicable REMIC Provisions) and such extension is granted or is not denied (an “REO Extension”) by the IRS to sell such REO Property or (ii) obtains for the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such

-235-

REO Property subsequent to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which acquisition occurred will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. If the Special Servicer is granted or not denied the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such longer period as is permitted by such REO Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any expense incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with its being granted the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its obtaining the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence, shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a).

(b) The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets. If an REO Acquisition shall occur, the Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more REO Accounts, held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of any related Companion Holder(s), as applicable, as their interest shall appear, and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), for the retention of revenues and other proceeds derived from each REO Property. The REO Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the REO Account, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds, all REO Revenues, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds received in respect of an REO Property. Funds in the REO Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.06. The Special Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the Master Servicer of the location of the REO Account when first established and of the new location of the REO Account prior to any change thereof.

(c) The Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management, insuring, leasing, maintenance and disposition of any REO Property, but only to the extent of amounts on deposit in the REO Account relating to such REO Property. On the later of (x) the date that is on or prior to each Determination Date or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly identified and determined to be available (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on the Business Day preceding each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date), the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account and remit to the Master Servicer, which shall deposit into the Collection Account (or the Companion Distribution Account, as applicable), the aggregate of all amounts received in respect of each REO Property during the most recently ended Collection Period, net of (i) any withdrawals made out of such amounts pursuant to the preceding sentence and (ii) Net Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in the REO Account; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may retain in such REO Account, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, such portion of such balance as may be necessary to maintain a reasonable reserve for repairs, replacements, leasing, management and tenant improvements and other related expenses for the related REO Property. In addition, on or prior to the day the Special Servicer remits funds as provided in this Section 3.14(c), the Special Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer with a written accounting of amounts remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, as applicable, on such date. The Master Servicer shall apply all such amounts as instructed by the Special Servicer on the Determination Date (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date) for the related Distribution Date.

-236-

(d) The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate records, on a property-by-property basis, for the purpose of accounting for all deposits to, and withdrawals from, the REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(b) or Section 3.14(c).

Section 3.15 Management of REO Property. (a) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect, operate and lease such REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) solely for the purpose of its timely disposition and sale in a manner that does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the Trust or any Serviced Companion Noteholder of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or result in an Adverse REMIC Event. Subject to the foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection therewith as are in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder(s)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) all as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loan, as the case may be) (as determined by the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment in accordance with the Servicing Standard). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.15. Subject to this Section 3.15, the Special Servicer may allow the Trust or any commercial mortgage securitization that holds any Serviced Companion Loan to earn “net income from foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(d) of the Code if it determines that earning such income is in the best interests of Certificateholders and, if applicable, any related Companion Holder(s) on a net after-tax basis as compared with net leasing such REO Property or operating such REO Property on a different basis. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis (and in no event later than two (2) Business Days following receipt of such properly identified funds) in the applicable REO Account all revenues received by it with respect to each REO Property and the related REO Loan, and shall withdraw from the REO Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to such REO Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, leasing and maintenance of such REO Property, including, without limitation:

(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;

(ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;

(iii) any ground rents in respect of such REO Property, if applicable; and

(iv) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain and lease such REO Property.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account in respect of any REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer (subject to receiving notice from the Special Servicer in accordance with the procedures set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) shall advance from its own

-237-

funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, and prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event)) such Advances would, if made, constitute Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not:

(i) permit the Trust to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii) permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii) authorize or permit any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

(iv) Directly Operate, or allow any other Person, other than an Independent Contractor, to Directly Operate, any REO Property on any date more than ninety (90) days after its acquisition date;

unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held for the benefit of the Trust, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

(c) The Special Servicer shall contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property within ninety (90) days of the acquisition date thereof, provided that:

(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract may not be inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm’s length;

(ii) the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be an expense of the Trust) shall be reasonable and customary in light of the nature and locality of the Mortgaged Property;

(iii) any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor (A) pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including, without limitation, those listed in subsection (a) hereof, and (B) remit all related revenues collected (net of its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt;

-238-

(iv) none of the provisions of this Section 3.15(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

(v) the Special Servicer shall be obligated to manage and supervise such Independent Contractor in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(d) When and as necessary, the Special Servicer shall send to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer a statement prepared by the Special Servicer setting forth the amount of net income or net loss, as determined for federal income tax purposes, resulting from the operation and management of a trade or business on, the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of, or the receipt of any other amount not constituting Rents from Real Property in respect of, any REO Property in accordance with Section 3.15(a) and Section 3.15(b).

Section 3.16 Sale of Defaulted Loans and REO Properties. (a) (i) Within thirty (30) days after a Defaulted Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall order (but shall not be required to have received) an Appraisal and within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Appraisal shall determine the fair value of such Defaulted Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that if the Special Servicer is then in the process of obtaining an Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall make its fair value determination as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within thirty (30) days) after its receipt of such an Appraisal. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, adjust its fair value determination based upon changed circumstances, new information and other relevant factors, in each instance in accordance with a review of such circumstances and new information in accordance with the Servicing Standard including, without limitation, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy; provided that the Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer in writing of the initial fair value determination and any adjustment to its fair value determination.

(ii) If any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement is a Specially Serviced Loan or to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall promptly notify in writing the Master Servicer, any related Companion Holder and any related mezzanine lender, as applicable, of any events requiring notice under the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. Thereafter, any related Companion Holder and related mezzanine lender, as applicable, shall, notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, have the option to purchase the related Mortgage Loan and cure defaults relating thereto as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

-239-

(iii) If any Mortgage Loan not subject to an Intercreditor Agreement becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, or if the related Companion Holder or related mezzanine lender, as applicable, for any such Mortgage Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement has not previously exercised the option to purchase the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the previous paragraph, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for each Defaulted Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan in such manner as will be reasonably likely to maximize the value of the Defaulted Loan on a net present value basis, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments thereon and such a sale would be in the best economic interests of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder (and, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Serviced Companion Loan). In the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the extent permitted under the related Intercreditor Agreement, and such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not sold together with the Non-Serviced Companion Loan by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to sell with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan (with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, provided such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan as to such party) such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such action would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement (and provided that the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer will not be entitled to a liquidation fee), the Special Servicer shall be entitled to the liquidation fee that the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer would have otherwise been entitled to in connection with the sale of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer is required to give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder (but only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to an AB Control Appraisal Period (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than in respect of any Excluded Loan as to such party) not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any Defaulted Loan. In the absence of a cash offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, the Special Servicer may purchase the Defaulted Loan for the Purchase Price or may accept the first cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for the Defaulted Loan.

(iv) (A) In the case of a Specially Serviced Loan as to which a default has occurred and is continuing, in the absence of any offer at least equal to the Purchase Price pursuant to clause (iii) above (or purchase by the Special Servicer for such price), the Special Servicer shall solicit offers and, subject to sub-clause (B) below, accept the highest offer received from any Person that is determined by the Special Servicer to be a fair price for such Specially Serviced Loan, if the offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person. In determining whether any offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any Defaulted Loan or REO Property, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior three (3)

-240-

months), among other factors, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. If the offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror), the Trustee shall determine whether the offer constitutes a fair price unless such offer by an Interested Person (i) is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price and (ii) is the highest offer received. Absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (x) it is the highest offer received and (y) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, the Trustee shall rely on the most recent Appraisal (or update of such Appraisal) of the related Mortgaged Property conducted in accordance with this Agreement within the preceding nine (9) month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. Except as provided in the following paragraph, the cost of any Appraisal will be covered by, and will be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee must (at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable by, the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. The Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. Neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any Defaulted Loan.

(B) The Special Servicer will not be obligated to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines (in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (unless a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) subject, to the limitations on consultation set forth in and in accordance with Section 6.08(a) and other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder), in accordance with the Servicing Standard (and subject to the requirements of any related Intercreditor Agreement), that the rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced

-241-

Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a single lender, and taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loan). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer from any Person other than an Affiliate of the Special Servicer if it determines, in its reasonable judgment consistent with the Servicing Standard, that the acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a single lender, and taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loan) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to sell all Defaulted Loans prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any fair value determination, to the extent required to do so pursuant to this Section 3.16, on the basis of anything other than the related Appraisal.

(v) Unless and until any Specially Serviced Loan is sold pursuant to this Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall pursue such other resolution strategies with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan, including, without limitation, workout and foreclosure, as the Special Servicer may deem appropriate, consistent with the Asset Status Report and the Servicing Standard and the REMIC Provisions.

(b) (i) (A) The Special Servicer may purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such purchase shall be a purchase of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan). The Special Servicer may also offer to sell to any Person any REO Property (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such sale shall be a sale of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan), if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such a sale would be in the best economic interest of the Trust and the related Companion Holders. The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Master Servicer, each Companion Holder, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan as to such party, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intention to (i) purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor (including a calculation of the Purchase Price) or (ii) sell any REO Property, in which case the Special Servicer shall accept the highest offer received from any Person for any REO Property in an amount at least equal to the Purchase Price therefor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and subject to the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer, an Affiliate of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer, or an employee of either of them may act as broker in connection with the sale of any REO Property and may retain from the proceeds of such sale a brokerage commission that does not exceed the

-242-

commission that would have been earned by an independent broker pursuant to a brokerage agreement entered into at arm’s length.

(B) In the absence of any such offer as set forth in sub-clause (A) above, the Special Servicer shall, subject to sub-clause (C) below, accept the highest offer for such REO Property received from any Person that is determined to be a fair price (1) by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, or (2) by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person unless such offer by an Interested Person (i) is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price and (ii) is the highest offer received; provided, however, that absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (A) it is the highest offer received and (B) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any REO Property pursuant hereto.

(C) The Special Servicer shall not be obligated by either of the foregoing paragraphs or otherwise to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, and in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, and in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer.

(D) In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any REO Property, the Trustee shall obtain and may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters retained by the Trustee in connection with making such determination. The reasonable cost of such Independent appraiser or other Independent expert shall be an expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser. The reasonable fees and costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to

-243-

collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. In determining whether any offer constitutes a fair price for any REO Property, the Special Servicer or the Trustee (or, if applicable, such appraiser) shall take into account, and any appraiser or other expert in real estate matters shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the physical condition of such REO Property, the state of the local economy and the Trust’s obligation to comply with REMIC Provisions.

(ii) Subject to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust and the related Companion Holders in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any REO Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. A sale of any REO Property shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust (except that any contract of sale and assignment and conveyance documents may contain customary warranties of title, so long as the only recourse for breach thereof is to the Trust) and, if consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trustee shall have any liability to the Trust or any Certificateholder or related Companion Holder (if applicable) with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(c) Any sale of a Defaulted Loan or any REO Property shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions or authoritative interpretations thereof made or issued subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).

(d) With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, if the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, and if the Special Servicer determines to sell the related Mortgage Loan that has become a Defaulted Loan in accordance with this Section 3.16, then the Special Servicer shall sell the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan together with such Mortgage Loan as one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Special Servicer in writing. To the extent a determination is required to be made hereunder as to whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for a Serviced Whole Loan, such determination shall be made by the Special Servicer unless the offeror is an Interested Person and by the Trustee if the offeror is an Interested Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer will not be permitted to sell the related Mortgage Loan together with the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) if it becomes a defaulted Whole Loan without the written consent of the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (provided that such consent is not required if the holder of the Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan is the Mortgagor or an Affiliate of the Mortgagor) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell such Serviced Whole Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the permitted sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for such Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, and any

-244-

documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Directing Certificateholder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. The holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (or its representative) will be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of such Whole Loan; however, the related Mortgagor and its agents and Affiliates shall not be permitted to submit an offer at such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the holder of the related Companion Loan may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this paragraph with respect to the related Whole Loan. If the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in making such determination. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person.

(e) (i) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, with respect to each Serviced AB Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Subordinate Companion Holder will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as applicable. Such right of such Subordinate Companion Holder shall be given priority over any provision described in this Section 3.16 as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. If the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property is purchased by such Subordinate Companion Holder, repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or otherwise ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan will no longer be subject to this Agreement. In addition, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, if the related Serviced AB Whole Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, and if the Special Servicer determines to sell the related Mortgage Loan that has become a Defaulted Loan in accordance with this Section 3.16, then the Special Servicer is not required to sell the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s) together with such Mortgage Loan as one whole loan. If no Control Appraisal Period exists, the Special Servicer may not sell the Subordinate Companion Loan(s) without the prior consent of the holder of the Subordinate Companion Loan(s). If a Control Appraisal Period is continuing, the Special Servicer has the right (but not the obligation) to sell the Subordinate Companion Loan(s) without the consent of the holder of the Subordinate Companion Loan(s).

-245-

(ii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, any mezzanine lender will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, as applicable, and cure defaults relating thereto, as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(f) Unless otherwise provided in an Intercreditor Agreement the sale of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16 will be on a servicing released basis.

(g) In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has the right to purchase any Companion Loan on behalf of the Trust pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall exercise such right.

Section 3.17 Additional Obligations of Master Servicer and Special Servicer. (a) The Master Servicer shall deliver all Compensating Interest Payments (other than the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall deliver the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan to the Companion Paying Agent for deposit in the Companion Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor.

(b) The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to each Serviced Companion Noteholder any reports or notices required to be delivered to such Serviced Companion Noteholder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) Upon the determination that a previously made Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account and available for distribution on the next Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, each at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v) immediately, as an accommodation may elect to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement for such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the one month collection period ending on the then-current Determination Date, for successive one-month periods for a total period not to exceed twelve (12) months (provided that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, any such deferral exceeding six (6) months shall require, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder), and any election to so defer or not to defer shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election at its sole option and in its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable in the subsequent collection period (subject, again, to the same sole option to defer; it is acknowledged that, in such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be payable first from principal collections as described above prior to payment from other collections). In connection with a potential election by the Master Servicer or the Trustee to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof during the one month collection period

-246-

ending on the related Determination Date for any Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized to wait for principal collections on the Mortgage Loans to be received until the end of such collection period before making its determination of whether to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof; provided, however, that if, at any time the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, elects, in its sole discretion, not to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or otherwise determines that the reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance during a one-month collection period will exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on or in respect of Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to give the 17g-5 Information Provider fifteen (15) days’ notice of such determination for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), unless extraordinary circumstances make such notice impractical, which shall mean that (i) the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines in its sole discretion that waiting fifteen (15) days after such a notice could jeopardize its ability to recover such Nonrecoverable Advance, (ii) changed circumstances or new or different information becomes known to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that could affect or cause a determination of whether any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance or whether to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance or the determination in clause (i) above, or (iii) in the case of the Master Servicer, it has not timely received from the Trustee information required by the Master Servicer to determine whether to defer reimbursement for a Nonrecoverable Advance. If any of the circumstances described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the foregoing sentence apply, the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, shall give the 17g-5 Information Provider a notice for posting of the anticipated reimbursement as soon as reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure to give notice as required by the preceding or second preceding sentence shall in no way affect the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s election whether to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or right to obtain such reimbursement as described in this Section 3.17(c). Nothing herein shall give the Master Servicer or the Trustee the right to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance to the extent of any principal collections then available in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v). The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have no liability for any loss, liability or expenses resulting from any notice provided to the Rating Agencies contemplated by this Section 3.17(c).

The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to limit any liability that may otherwise be imposed on such Person for any failure by such Person to comply with the conditions to making such an election under this Section 3.17(c) or to comply with the terms of this Section 3.17(c) and the other provisions of this Agreement that apply once such an election, if any, has been made; provided, however, that the fact that a decision to recover such Nonrecoverable Advances over time, or not to do so, benefits some Classes of Certificateholders to the detriment of other Classes of Certificateholders shall not, with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard and/or with respect to the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), constitute a violation of any fiduciary duty to Certificateholders or any contractual obligation hereunder. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines, in its sole discretion, to fully recover the Nonrecoverable Advances immediately instead of deferring such reimbursement, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from all amounts in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date (deemed first from principal and then interest). Any such election by any such

-247-

party to refrain from reimbursing itself or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more collection periods shall not limit the accrual of interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as the case may be, agreement to defer reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Certificateholders and shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Certificateholders. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create in the Certificateholders a right to prior payment of distributions over the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, right to reimbursement for Advances (deferred or otherwise) and accrued interest thereon. In all events, the decision to defer reimbursement or to seek immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and none of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the other parties to this Agreement shall have any liability to one another or to any of the Certificateholders or any of the Companion Holders for any such election that such party makes as contemplated by this Section 3.17(c) or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election, nor shall such election constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard or any duty under this Agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall have any liability whatsoever for making an election, or refraining from making an election, that is authorized under this Section 3.17(c).

No determination by the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) to exercise its sole option to defer the reimbursement of Advances and/or interest thereon under this section shall be construed as an agreement by the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) to subordinate (in respect of realizing losses), to any Class of Certificates, such party’s right to such reimbursement during such period of deferral.

With respect to any modification or amendment of any Intercreditor Agreement related to a Serviced Whole Loan (to the extent received), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to the 17g-5 Information Provider a copy of any such modification or amendment, which the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(d) With respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), if the related loan documents permit the lender to (but do not require the lender to), at its option, prior to an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), apply amounts held in any reserve account as a prepayment or hold such amounts in a reserve account, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may not apply such amounts as a prepayment, and will instead continue to hold such amounts in the applicable reserve account, unless not applying those amounts as a prepayment would be a violation of the Servicing Standard. Such amount may be used, if permitted under the loan documents, to defease the loan, or may be used to prepay the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), or for other purpose consistent with the Servicing Standard and the loan documents, upon a subsequent default.

(e) Within one (1) Business Day after the execution of any amendment or modification of any Intercreditor Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide to the Certificate Administrator a copy of any such modification or

-248-

amendment of any Intercreditor Agreement, and such amendment or modification shall be a Reportable Event.

Section 3.18 Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents. (a) The Special Servicer shall process waivers, modifications, amendments and consents with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and all such matters that involve a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision for all Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) that are not Specially Serviced Loans, and the Master Servicer shall process waivers, modifications, amendments and consents with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan and does not involve a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision. Except as set forth in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), this Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(d), Section 3.18(h), Section 3.18(i) and Section 6.08, but subject to any other conditions set forth thereunder (including, without limitation, the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a) with respect to any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes a Special Servicer Decision or a Major Decision) and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or any Serviced Whole Loan (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder, as applicable, to advise or consult with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to, or to consent to, a modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement), the Master Servicer shall not provide any consent or make any decision, including agreeing to any modification, waiver or amendment to the terms of a Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan unless such consent or decision constitutes a Master Servicer Decision, unless, with respect to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan that the Master Servicer shall process such request but in all events subject to the prior written consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, which consent shall be deemed given if the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) days of delivery to the Special Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written recommendations and analysis, and all information that is in the Master Servicer’s possession reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent, plus the time period provided to any Serviced Companion Noteholder under the related Intercreditor Agreement to consent to such Major Decision). Subject to Section 6.08, the Special Servicer may waive, modify or amend (or consent to waive, modify or amend) any provision of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that is not in default or as to which default is not reasonably foreseeable; and provided, further, that no extension, modification, waiver, amendment or forbearance or any other action that would have the effect of an extension entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18(a) shall extend the Maturity Date beyond the earlier of (i) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (ii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease, ten (10) years, prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate. If such extension would extend the Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan for more than twelve (12) months from and after the original Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan and such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, prior to any such extension, (1) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (whichever is processing such action) shall provide the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer (as

-249-

applicable), the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party), with an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if not required or permitted to be paid by the Mortgagor, to be paid as an expense of the Trust in accordance with Section 3.11(d)) that such extension would not constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and (2) subject to the Servicing Standard, (w) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, obtain the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder, (x) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, consult with the Directing Certificateholder and (y) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer having consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a).

In the event the Special Servicer receives no response from the Directing Certificateholder within ten (10) days following its written request for input on any required consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Directing Certificateholder, as applicable, on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder to respond shall not relieve the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, from consulting with the Directing Certificateholder on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or an Excluded Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan. In addition, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall also consult with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Operating Advisor after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Special Servicer receives no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) its written request for input (which request shall include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Special Servicer from its obligation to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event, a Consultation Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.08(a) for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

-250-

In connection with any Major Decision processed by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer will provide any final Major Decision Reporting Package prepared by it to the Master Servicer promptly after the Directing Certificateholder’s approval of such final Major Decision Reporting Package.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder to advise the Master Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, and subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a), the Master Servicer, with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, without the consent of or consultation with the Special Servicer or the Directing Certificateholder, may modify or amend the terms of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan in order to (i) cure any ambiguity or mistake therein or (ii) correct or supplement any provisions therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions therein or correct any error; provided that, if the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, such modification or amendment would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

Subject to Section 6.08, applicable law and the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit the substitution of any Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) for one or more other parcels of real property at any time the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable unless (i) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, obtains Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (and delivers such Rating Agency Confirmation to the Directing Certificateholder, if permitted by the applicable Rating Agency) and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) and (ii) such substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event (and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may obtain and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor if not prohibited by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, and if so prohibited, at the expense of the Trust) with respect thereto).

In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to review and approve any calculations (including, but not limited to, debt yield and debt service coverage ratio calculations) made by the Master Servicer that would result in (i) the commencement or termination of a cash trap or lease sweep period with respect to any Mortgage Loan, (ii) the removal of a property manager of a Mortgaged Property, (iii) the allocation of casualty or condemnation Proceeds, or (iv) the release of any reserve to a Mortgagor if such release would constitute a Major Decision. In connection with the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall forward any such calculation to the

-251-

Special Servicer and provide any information that the Special Servicer reasonably requests in order to recalculate and review such calculation. With respect to any such calculation, if the Special Servicer fails to respond within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such calculation and requested information (if any) referred to above, then such calculation will be deemed to have been approved by the Special Servicer. In the event the Special Servicer disagrees with any such calculation made by the Master Servicer (including any inputs), then the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to reconcile their calculations; provided that, if the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are unable to reconcile their calculations within five (5) Business Days after identifying such disagreement, then the Special Servicer’s calculation shall control.

(b) If the Special Servicer determines that a modification, waiver or amendment (including, without limitation, the forgiveness or deferral of interest or principal or the substitution of collateral pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan or otherwise, the release of collateral or the pledge of additional collateral) of the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan (or any Non-Specially Serviced Loan with respect to which such determination derives from the Special Servicer’s consideration of a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision that is subject to its processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) with respect to which a payment default or other material default has occurred or a payment default or other material default is, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, reasonably foreseeable (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Special Servicer), is reasonably likely to produce a greater (or equivalent) recovery on a net present value basis (the relevant discounting to be performed at the related Mortgage Rate) to the Trust and, if applicable, the Companion Holders, as the holders of the related Serviced Companion Loan, than liquidation of such Specially Serviced Loan, then the Special Servicer may, but is not required to, agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of such Specially Serviced Loan, subject to (v) the provisions of this Section 3.18(b) and Section 3.18(c), (w) with respect to any Major Decision, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, with the approval of the Directing Certificateholder (or after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, upon consultation with the Directing Certificateholder) as provided in Section 6.08, (x) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, consultation with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), (y) with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, any rights of the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder to consent to such modification, waiver or amendment and (z) additionally, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the related Serviced Companion Noteholder or with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) with mezzanine debt, the rights of the related mezzanine lender, to advise or consult with the Special Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, as applicable; provided that with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder will be required to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement and the Directing Certificateholder shall have no consent or consultation rights regarding the matter; provided, further, that in the case of any release or substitution of collateral (other than a defeasance), the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel that such release or substitution would not be a “significant

-252-

modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing or for which its consent is required and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

The Master Servicer, prior to taking any action with respect to any Major Decision or any Special Servicer Decision, shall refer the request to the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall process the request directly (other than any Major Decision described in subclauses (A) and (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decision” with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, which shall be processed by the Master Servicer subject to the consent rights of the Special Servicer). However, if the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request, the Master Servicer shall prepare and submit its written analysis and recommendation to the Special Servicer with all information that is in the Master Servicer’s possession that the Special Servicer may reasonably request in order to withhold or grant its consent, and in all cases the Special Servicer may approve or disapprove any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes such a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision.

In connection with (i) the release of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage or (ii) the taking of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the related Mortgage Loan documents require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to calculate (or to approve the calculation of the related Mortgagor of) the LTV Ratio of the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties or the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the related Mortgage Loan, then such calculation shall, unless then permitted by the REMIC Provisions, exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any, as determined by an appropriate third party.

If, following any such release or taking, the LTV Ratio as calculated is greater than 125%, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall require payment of principal by a “qualified amount” as determined under Revenue Procedure 2010-30 or successor provisions, unless the related Mortgagor provides an Opinion of Counsel that if such amount is not paid, the related Mortgage Loan will not fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective obligation to be treated as a qualified mortgage).

The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to the extent reasonably possible to cause each Specially Serviced Loan to fully amortize prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and shall not agree to a modification, waiver, amendment, forbearance or other

-253-

action that would have the effect of an extension of any term of any Specially Serviced Loan if such modification, waiver, amendment, forbearance or other action would (1) extend the Maturity Date of any such Specially Serviced Loan to a date occurring later than the earlier of (a) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (b) if such Specially Serviced Loan is secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date occurring twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease and, (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party) pursuant to Section 6.08 and (B) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, after consulting with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), ten (10) years prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate (including any options to extend such leasehold estate exercisable unilaterally by the related Mortgagor), or (2) provide for the deferral of interest unless interest accrues on the related Mortgage Loan, or Serviced Whole Loan generally at the related Mortgage Rate.

(c) Any provision of this Section 3.18 to the contrary notwithstanding, except when a Mortgage Loan and/or Companion Loan is in default or default with respect thereto is reasonably foreseeable, no fee described in this Section 3.18 shall be collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer from a Mortgagor (or on behalf of the Mortgagor) in conjunction with any consent or any modification, waiver or amendment of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable (unless the amount thereof is specified in the related Mortgage Note) if the collection of such fee would cause such consent, modification, waiver or amendment to be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Note within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(d) To the extent consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the first sentence of Section 3.18(a), and Section 6.08), the Master Servicer (subject to the Special Servicer’s consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a) if any such waiver, modification or amendment constitutes a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision) or the Special Servicer may, consistent with the Servicing Standard, agree to any waiver, modification or amendment of a Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan that is not in default or as to which default is not reasonably foreseeable only if the contemplated waiver, modification or amendment (i) will not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) , (ii) cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (iii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund or either Trust REMIC. In making this determination, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may obtain and rely upon (and shall provide to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator if obtained) an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor or such other Person requesting such modification or, if such expense cannot be collected from the related Mortgagor or such other Person, to be paid out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a); provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall use its reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor or such other Person to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive the payment of any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge or the requirement that any prepayment of a Mortgage Loan be made on a Due Date, or if not made on a Due Date, be

-254-

accompanied by all interest that would be due on the next Due Date with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan.

(e) Subject to Section 3.18(c), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each may, as a condition to its granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification (including extensions), waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing, the granting of which is within the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, discretion pursuant to the terms of the instruments evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee, for the additional services performed in connection with such request; provided that the charging of such fee is not a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(f) All modifications (including extensions), waivers and amendments of the Mortgage Loans and/or Companion Loans entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18 shall be in writing, signed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and the related Mortgagor (and by any guarantor of the related Mortgage Loan, if such guarantor’s signature is required by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard).

(g) With respect to any modification, waiver, amendment or consent for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18, the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor (during an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than following the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), the applicable Companion Holder (unless, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred, if applicable), the related Mortgage Loan Seller (if such Mortgage Loan Seller is not the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer of such Mortgage Loan or the Directing Certificateholder) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) in writing of any modification, waiver, amendment or consent (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) of any term of any Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan that is modified, waived or amended and the date thereof. With respect to any modification, waiver, amendment or consent (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to this Section 3.18, the Master Servicer shall provide written notice of any such modification, waiver, amendment or consent to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer (and, unless a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall forward any such notice to the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to an Excluded Controlling Class Loan)), the applicable Companion Holder (unless, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred, if applicable) and the related Mortgage Loan Seller (so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller is not the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer of such Mortgage Loan or the Directing Certificateholder) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). The party responsible for delivering notice shall deliver to the Custodian with a copy to the Master Servicer (if such notice is being delivered by the Special Servicer) for deposit in the related

-255-

Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver, amendment or consent, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following the execution thereof, with a copy to the applicable Companion Holder, if any. Following receipt of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, delivery of the aforesaid modification, waiver, amendment or consent to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall forward a copy thereof to each Holder of a Certificate (other than the Class R Certificates). With respect to the processing of any modification, waiver or consent related to any Mortgagor incurring Additional Secured Debt or mezzanine debt, the Special Servicer (if the Special Servicer processes such modification, waiver or consent pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) shall, on or before the later of (i) 3:00 p.m. on the related P&I Advance Date and (ii) five (5) Business Days immediately following the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, obtaining actual knowledge of the incurrence of such Additional Secured Debt or mezzanine debt, deliver notice of the Mortgagor’s incurrence of such debt, substantially in the form of Exhibit KK, to !nacctsecnotifications@computershare.com and an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit EE. The notice contemplated in the preceding sentence shall set forth, to the extent the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, has the requisite information or can reasonably obtain such information, (1) the amount of Additional Secured Debt that was incurred in the related Collection Period, (2) the total Debt Service Coverage Ratio calculated on the basis of such Mortgage Loan and Additional Secured Debt, and (3) the aggregate LTV Ratio calculated on the basis of such Mortgage Loan and Additional Secured Debt. In the event that either (i) the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package is amended to include such information set forth above, in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and the Master Servicer confirms with the Certificate Administrator that such amended CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package enables the Certificate Administrator to include such information on Form 10-D in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator, or (ii) the Trust is no longer subject to the Exchange Act, the additional report in the form of Exhibit KK shall no longer be required hereunder. From time to time, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator may agree on a different delivery time and format for the information set forth in this paragraph.

(h) The Master Servicer shall process all defeasance transactions, subject to the Special Servicer’s consent with respect to any Major Decision relating to a defeasance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not permit (or, with regard to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, take any act in furtherance of) the substitution of any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) and the Master Servicer has received (i) replacement collateral consisting of government securities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), which satisfies the requirements of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the related Mortgage Loan (or defeased portion thereof) when due, (ii) a certificate of an Independent certified public accountant to the effect that such substituted property will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity) on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, (iii) one or more Opinions of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor) to the effect that the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, will have a first priority perfected security interest in such substituted Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that, to the extent consistent with the

-256-

related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the related Mortgagor shall pay the cost of any such opinion as a condition to granting such defeasance, (iv) to the extent consistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Mortgagor shall establish a single purpose entity to act as a successor Mortgagor, if so required by the Rating Agencies, (v) to the extent permissible under the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to require the related Mortgagor to pay all costs of such defeasance, including but not limited to the cost of maintaining any successor Mortgagor, and (vi) to the extent permissible under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall obtain, at the expense of the related Mortgagor, Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25); provided, further, however, that no such confirmation from any Rating Agency shall be required to the extent that the Master Servicer has delivered a defeasance certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit U for any Mortgage Loan that (together with any other Crossed Underlying Loans in a Crossed Mortgage Loan Group with such Mortgage Loan) is: (i) a Mortgage Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance less than $35,000,000, (ii) a Mortgage Loan that represents less than 5% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of all Mortgage Loans, and (iii) a Mortgage Loan that is not one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that requiring the Mortgagor to pay for the items specified in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) in the preceding sentence would be inconsistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents, such reasonable costs shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller as and to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein or in the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, to the contrary, the Master Servicer may permit the substitution of “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) for any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable (or any portion thereof), in lieu of the defeasance collateral specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents or Serviced Whole Loan documents, as applicable; provided that such substitution is consistent with the Servicing Standard and the Master Servicer (subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a) with respect to any such action that constitutes a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision) reasonably determines that allowing their use would not cause a default or event of default to become reasonably foreseeable and the Master Servicer receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable or Companion Loan documents or otherwise as a Trust Fund expense) to the effect that such use would not be and would not constitute a “significant modification” of such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and would not otherwise constitute an Adverse REMIC Event with respect to either Trust REMIC; and provided, further, that the requirements set forth in Section 3.18(h) (including receipt of any Rating Agency Confirmation) are satisfied; and provided, further, that such securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, or the

-257-

Master Servicer shall obtain Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans identified as Mortgage Loan numbers 10, 12, 17, 19, 20, 22, 24, 25, 27 and 29 on the Mortgage Loan Schedule for which a Retained Defeasance Seller is the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and that are subject to defeasance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller has transferred to a third party or has retained on behalf of itself or an Affiliate the right to establish or designate the successor borrower and/or to purchase or cause to be purchased the related defeasance collateral (any such right or obligation, the “Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations”). In the event the Master Servicer receives notice of a defeasance request with respect to a Mortgage Loan for which a Retained Defeasance Seller is the related Mortgage Loan Seller, which such Mortgage Loan provides for Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations in the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall provide, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, written notice of such defeasance request to Retained Defeasance Seller, as applicable. Until such time as the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides the Master Servicer with written notice to the contrary, the notice of a defeasance of a Mortgage Loan with Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations as to which Retained Defeasance Seller is the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be delivered to the related Mortgage Loan Seller at its respective notice address provided under Section 13.05. With respect to any such Mortgage Loan that is subject to defeasance, if the successor borrower is not designated or formed by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or any Affiliate or successor thereto, the successor borrower shall be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(j) If required under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents or if otherwise consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Defeasance Accounts”), which shall be Eligible Accounts, into which all payments received by the Master Servicer from any defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Defeasance Accounts in accordance with the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Defeasance Account for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, unless such amounts are reinvested by the Master Servicer in “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii). To the extent not required or permitted to be placed in a separate account, the Master Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property into the Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan in advance of its Due Date in accordance with clause (a)(i) of the definition of “Available Funds” and not as a prepayment of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Collection Account for a period in excess of 365 days (or 366 days in the case of a leap year).

-258-

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall, unless it has received Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) (the cost of which shall be paid by the related Mortgagor, if so allowed by the terms of the related loan documents and otherwise paid out of general collections) grant or accept any consent, approval or direction regarding the termination of the related property manager or the designation of any replacement property manager, with respect to any Mortgaged Property that secures a Mortgage Loan that (i) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance or (ii) has an unpaid principal balance that is at least equal to five percent (5%) of the then-aggregate principal balance of all Mortgage Loans or $35,000,000.

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with any modification, waiver, consent or amendment in connection with any defeasance transaction contemplated in subclause (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decision”, the Master Servicer shall not approve any such modification, waiver or amendment or consent thereto without first having received a copy of an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer that such modification, waiver, consent or amendment will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(m) Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall modify any Mortgage Loan into an AB Modified Loan unless the documents evidencing such modification provide that all payments on the junior or “B” portion of such AB Modified Loan (including interest, principal and other amounts) shall only be payable after the point in time at which all interest and principal on the senior or “A” portion of such AB Modified Loan shall have been paid in full and such senior or “A” portion shall no longer be outstanding; provided, however, that interest and other amounts in respect of such junior or “B” portion may accrue prior to such point in time.

Section 3.19 Transfer of Servicing Between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer; Recordkeeping; Asset Status Report. (a) Upon determining that a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall promptly give notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder thereof, and the Master Servicer shall deliver the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Special Servicer and concurrently provide a copy of such Servicing File, exclusive of all Privileged Communications, to the Operating Advisor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise available to the Master Servicer without undue burden or expense, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its

-259-

functions hereunder with respect thereto. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each related Servicing Transfer Event (or, in the case of clauses (viii) or (ix) of the definition of “Servicing Transfer Event”, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice from the Special Servicer of such Servicing Transfer Event when the Special Servicer makes the determination) and in any event shall continue to act as Master Servicer and administrator of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event or (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder, a copy of the notice of such Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer to the Special Servicer, or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer, pursuant to this Section 3.19. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to each Controlling Class Certificateholder a copy of the notice of such Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.19.

Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Loan (other than an REO Loan) has become current and has remained current for three consecutive Periodic Payments (provided that (i) no additional Servicing Transfer Event is foreseeable in the reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, and (ii) for such purposes taking into account any modification or amendment of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan), and that no other Servicing Transfer Event is continuing with respect thereto, the Special Servicer shall immediately give notice thereof to the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless with respect to an AB Subordinate Companion Loan an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred) and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder and shall return the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer (or copies thereof if copies only were delivered to the Special Servicer) and upon giving such notice, and returning such Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Corrected Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and administer such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan shall recommence.

(b) In servicing any Specially Serviced Loans and Serviced Companion Loans, the Special Servicer will provide to the Custodian originals of documents included within the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the related Mortgage File to the extent within its possession (with a copy of each such original to the Master Servicer), and provide the Master Servicer with copies of any additional related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan information including correspondence with the related Mortgagor.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to each of the Specially Serviced Loans, Serviced Companion Loans and REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information in its possession with respect to such records to enable the Special Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement; provided that

-260-

this statement shall not be construed to require the Master Servicer to produce any additional reports.

(d) No later than (i) sixty (60) days after a Servicing Transfer Event for a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan and (ii) prior to taking action with respect to any Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to a Major Decision) with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan (the “Initial Delivery Date”), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format a report (the “Asset Status Report”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if applicable, and the related Mortgaged Property to the Master Servicer and the Directing Certificateholder (but with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, only in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than (A) any Excluded Loan or (B) any Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence of an AB Control Appraisal Period, and in any event prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event). Subsequent to the issuance of a Final Asset Status Report to the extent that during the course of the resolution of such Specially Serviced Loan material changes in the strategy reflected in the initial Final Asset Status Report (or subsequent Final Asset Status Reports) are necessary to reflect the then current circumstances and recommendation as to how the Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise liquidated in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall prepare one or more additional Asset Status Reports with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan (each such report, once finalized and approved, a “Subsequent Asset Status Report”). The Special Servicer shall deliver each Subsequent Asset Status Report and Final Asset Status Report in electronic form to the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (but with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, only in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than (A) any Excluded Loan as to such party or (B) any Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence of an AB Control Appraisal Period, and in any event prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), any related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder prior to an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, the Operating Advisor (but, other than with respect to an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event and, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, only to the extent that such Whole Loan is subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) and, with respect to any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the related Companion Holder or, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the master servicer of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold; the Special Servicer shall also deliver a summary of each Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator shall post the summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall not make any Asset Status Reports available to any Certificateholders on its website. None of the parties to this Agreement shall provide any Asset Status Report or any Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator. Further, the Certificate Administrator shall not request any Asset Status Report or Final Asset Status Report from the Master Servicer. Such Asset Status Report shall set forth the following information to the extent reasonably determinable based on the information that was delivered to the Special Servicer in connection with the transfer of servicing pursuant to the Servicing Transfer Event:

-261-

(i) a summary of the status of such Specially Serviced Loan and any negotiations with the related Mortgagor;

(ii) a discussion of the legal and environmental considerations reasonably known to the Special Servicer, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that are applicable to the exercise of remedies as aforesaid and to the enforcement of any related guaranties or other collateral for the related Mortgage Loan (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) and whether outside legal counsel has been retained;

(iii) the most current rent roll, and income or operating statement available for the related Mortgaged Property;

(iv) (A) the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how such Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status (including the modification of a monetary term, and any workout, restructure or debt forgiveness) and returned to the Master Servicer for regular servicing or foreclosed or otherwise realized upon (including any proposed sale of a Defaulted Loan or REO Property), (B) a description of any such proposed or taken actions, and (C) the alternative courses of action that were or are being considered by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed or taken actions;

(v) the status of any foreclosure actions or other proceedings undertaken with respect to the Specially Serviced Loan, any proposed workouts and the status of any negotiations with respect to such workouts, and an assessment of the likelihood of additional defaults under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan;

(vi) a description of any amendment, modification or waiver of a material term of any ground lease (or any space lease or air rights lease, if applicable) or franchise agreement;

(vii) the decision that the Special Servicer made, or intends or proposes to make, including a narrative analysis setting forth the Special Servicer’s rationale for its proposed decision, including its rejection of the alternatives;

(viii) an analysis of whether or not taking such proposed action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the net present value calculation and all related assumptions;

(ix) the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property (and a copy of the last obtained Appraisal of such Mortgaged Property) together with a description of any adjustments to the valuation of such Mortgaged Property made by the Special Servicer together with an explanation of those adjustments; and

(x) such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the Servicing Standard.

A summary of each Final Asset Status Report shall be provided to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee.

-262-

If within ten (10) days (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days) of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Directing Certificateholder does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days), or if the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard that the disapproval by the Directing Certificateholder (communicated to the Special Servicer within ten (10) days) is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan), the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents. If, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder disapproves such Asset Status Report within ten (10) days (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days) of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made the affirmative determination described above, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report and deliver a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after such disapproval, to the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, only prior to the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and during an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan), the Operating Advisor (but only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)); provided, however, that, if the Special Servicer determines that emergency action is necessary to protect the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Certificateholders and any related Serviced Companion Noteholder, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer may take actions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property before the expiration of the ten (10) day period (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) day period) if the Special Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions before the expiration of the ten (10) day period (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) day period) would materially and adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (if applicable) and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort, if no Control Termination Event is continuing and other than if an Excluded Loan is involved, to contact the Directing Certificateholder. With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above in this Section 3.19(d) until the Directing Certificateholder (or, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of a AB Control Appraisal Period and to the extent required by the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan) shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within ten (10) days (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to

-263-

making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days) of receiving such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that the disapproval is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan); provided that, if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved the Asset Status Report for a period of sixty (60) Business Days following the first submission of an Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer may act upon the most recently submitted form of Asset Status Report if consistent with the Servicing Standard; and provided, however, that such Asset Status Report does not, and is not intended to be, a substitute for the approvals that are specifically required pursuant to Section 6.08. The procedures described in this paragraph are collectively referred to herein as the “Directing Certificateholder Approval Process”. Prior to the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall deliver each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor following the conclusion of the Directing Certificateholder Approval Process.

The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report; provided that such report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.19(d). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with an Asset Status Report for an Excluded Loan which includes a Major Decision that it is processing or for which its consent is required and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

No direction or disapproval of the Directing Certificateholder hereunder or under a related Intercreditor Agreement or failure of the Directing Certificateholder to consent to or approve (including any deemed consents or approvals) any request of the Special Servicer, shall (a) require or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC, or (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or (c) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or their respective officers, directors, members, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability or (d) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, the Trustee’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

If an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing (or, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, if both an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing and an AB Control Appraisal Period is in effect), the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver each Asset Status Report prepared in connection with a Specially Serviced Loan to the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder). Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review of a Final Asset Status Report shall only provide

-264-

background information to support the Operating Advisor’s duties concerning the Special Servicer’s compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor shall not provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of such Final Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of the Asset Status Report, if any, within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) receipt of such Asset Status Report or (ii) receipt of such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related thereto that is in the possession of the Special Servicer, and propose possible alternative courses of action to the extent it determines such alternatives to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (including any Certificateholders that are holders of the Control Eligible Certificates), as a collective whole. The Special Servicer shall consider such non-binding alternative courses of action, if any, and any other feedback provided by the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder) in connection with the Special Servicer’s preparation of any Asset Status Report that is provided while an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing. The Special Servicer may revise the Asset Status Report as it deems necessary to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor on a non-binding basis (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder), to the extent the Special Servicer determines that the Operating Advisor’s and/or Directing Certificateholder’s input and/or recommendations are consistent with the Servicing Standard and in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the best interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of the related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of such Companion Loan)).

Upon determining whether or not to revise any Asset Status Report to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall revise the Asset Status Report, if applicable (but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder), and deliver to the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder the revised Asset Status Report (until a Final Asset Status Report is issued) or provide notice that the Special Servicer has decided not to revise such Asset Status Report, as applicable. The procedures described in this and the immediately preceding paragraph are collectively referred to as the “ASR Consultation Process”.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder shall have no right to consent to any Asset Status Report under this Section 3.19. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder (except with respect to any Excluded Loan or a Serviced AB Whole Loan (prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period)) and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Operating Advisor shall consult with the Special Servicer (telephonically or electronically) and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder (other

-265-

than in its capacity as a Certificateholder) shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report or otherwise consult with the Special Servicer with respect to Asset Status Reports and the Special Servicer shall only be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on a non-binding basis with respect to any Asset Status Report as described above. The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Report as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with the Servicing Standard to take into account any input and/or recommendations of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder during the applicable periods described above, but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder.

The Special Servicer shall implement the Final Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall follow any advice, direction or consultation provided by the Operating Advisor, any Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its representative) or the Directing Certificateholder that would require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate any applicable law, be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard or any Intercreditor Agreement, require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate provisions of this Agreement, require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement or any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, expose any Certificateholder or any party to this Agreement or their affiliates, officers, directors or agents to any claim, suit or liability, cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or result in the imposition of “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement or any Intercreditor Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the Special Servicer shall prepare an Asset Status Report for any Serviced AB Whole Loan, upon it becoming a Specially Serviced Loan pursuant to this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, but the Directing Certificateholder shall have no approval rights over any such Asset Status Report, and the consent or approval rights with respect to such Asset Status Report shall be as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(e) (i) Upon receiving notice of the occurrence of the events described in clause (iv) or (ix) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall with reasonable promptness give notice thereof, and shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information relating to the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to negotiate with the related Mortgagor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each such event.

(ii) After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, upon receiving notice of the occurrence of an event described in clause (iv) or (ix)

-266-

of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall deliver notice thereof to the Operating Advisor at the same time such notice is provided to the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (i) above.

(f) Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, no later than two (2) Business Days following the establishment of a Final Asset Status Report with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (other than any Excluded Loan), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder a draft notice that will include a draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report (which briefly summarizes such Final Asset Status Report, but shall not include any Privileged Information) (and shall deliver each Asset Status Report with respect to a Serviced AB Mortgage Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period (to the extent approved by the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder), to the Directing Certificateholder). With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, if, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such draft summary, the Directing Certificateholder approves of, or does not disapprove of such draft summary, then the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b). If the Directing Certificateholder affirmatively disapproves of such summary in writing, then within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such disapproval, the Special Servicer shall revise the summary and deliver such new summary to the Directing Certificateholder until the Directing Certificateholder approves such draft summary; provided, however, that if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved of the draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt of the initial draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report, then the most recent draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report delivered by the Special Servicer prior to such 20th Business Day shall be deemed to be the final summary of the Final Asset Status Report; provided, further, however, that if at any time the Special Servicer determines that any affirmative disapproval of such draft summary by the Directing Certificateholder is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan), pursuant to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) notwithstanding such disapproval. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver (but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days following its completion) a copy of each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor. The Special Servicer shall prepare a summary of any Final Asset Status Report related to any Serviced AB Whole Loan which is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, which Final Asset Status Report has been approved or deemed approved by the holder of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement requires such approval or deemed approval), and deliver in electronic format notice of such Final Asset Status Report and the summary of such Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b).

(g) No provision of this Section 3.19 shall require the Special Servicer to take or to refrain from taking any action because of any proposal, objection or comment by the

-267-

Operating Advisor or a recommendation of the Operating Advisor or, during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder.

(a) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements to provide for the performance by third parties of any or all of its respective obligations hereunder; provided that the Sub-Servicing Agreement as amended or modified: (i) is consistent with this Agreement in all material respects and requires the Sub-Servicer to comply with all of the applicable conditions of this Agreement; (ii) provides that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall for any reason no longer act in such capacity hereunder (including, without limitation, by reason of a Servicer Termination Event), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date of assumption, obligations of such party under such agreement, or, alternatively, may act in accordance with Section 7.02 under the circumstances described therein (subject to Section 3.20(g)); (iii) provides that the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder (if applicable)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) shall be a third party beneficiary under such Sub-Servicing Agreement, but that (except to the extent the Trustee or its designee assumes the obligations of such party thereunder as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (ii)) none of the Trust, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (other than the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that enters into such Sub-Servicing Agreement), any successor master servicer or successor special servicer or any Certificateholder (or the related Companion Holder, if applicable) shall have any duties under such Sub-Servicing Agreement or any liabilities arising therefrom; (iv) permits any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to such purchased Mortgage Loan at its option and without penalty; provided, however, that the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements may only be terminated by the Trustee or its designees as contemplated by Section 3.20(g) and in such additional manner and by such other Persons as is provided in such Sub-Servicing Agreement; (v) does not permit the Sub-Servicer any direct rights of indemnification that may be satisfied out of assets of the Trust except through the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, if and only to the extent provided pursuant to Section 6.04; (vi) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to modify any Mortgage Loan unless and to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is permitted hereunder to modify such Mortgage Loan; (vii) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to take any action constituting a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision without the consent of the Special Servicer (subject to the rights of the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08) or any Mortgagor requested action that is neither a Major Decision nor a Special Servicer Decision without the Master Servicer’s consent); (viii) with respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after the Closing Date, if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, such Sub-Servicer, at the time the related Sub-Servicing Agreement is entered into, is not a Prohibited Party; (ix) provides that the Sub-Servicer shall be in default under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminated (following the expiration of any applicable grace period) if the Sub-Servicer fails (A) to deliver by the due date any Exchange Act reporting items required to be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Depositor under Article XI or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement or to the master servicer under any other pooling and servicing agreement governing any related Serviced Companion Loan, or (B) to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or obligations contained in the Sub-Servicing

-268-

Agreement regarding creating, obtaining or delivering any Exchange Act reporting items required for any party to this Agreement to perform its obligations under Article XI or under the Exchange Act reporting items required under any other pooling and servicing agreement governing any related Serviced Companion Loan; and (x) provides that such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminable if at any time the related Sub-Servicer (other than a Sub-Servicer retained by the Special Servicer) is a Risk Retention Affiliate of any Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2). Any successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, hereunder shall, upon becoming a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, be assigned and may assume any Sub-Servicing Agreements from the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be (subject to Section 3.20(g)). In addition, each Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer may but need not provide that the obligations of the Sub-Servicer thereunder may terminate with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced thereunder at the time such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided, however, that the Sub-Servicing Agreement may provide (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) that the Sub-Servicer will continue to make all Advances and calculations and prepare all reports required under the Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and continue to collect its Primary Servicing Fees as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred and to render such incidental services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for in such Sub-Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments thereto and modifications thereof, entered into by it, in each case promptly upon its execution and delivery of such documents. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions taken or to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer; and, in connection therewith, all amounts advanced by any Sub-Servicer (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) to satisfy the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder to make Advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Master Servicer out of its own funds and, accordingly, in such event, such Advances shall be recoverable by such Sub-Servicer in the same manner and out of the same funds as if such Sub-Servicer were the Master Servicer, and, for so long as they are outstanding, such Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.03(d), such interest to be allocable between the Master Servicer and such Sub-Servicer as may be provided (if at all) pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Servicing Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received any payment when a Sub-Servicer retained by it receives such payment. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee and the Depositor (and the Special Servicer shall notify the Operating Advisor) in writing promptly of the appointment by it of any Sub-Servicer, except that the Master Servicer need not provide such notice as to the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements.

(b) Each Sub-Servicer shall be authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to the extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of the related Mortgage Loans or the compliance with its obligations under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s obligations, as applicable, under this Agreement.

-269-

(c) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee, the Certificateholders, shall (at no expense to the Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Trust) monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of each of its Sub-Servicers under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, except that the Master Servicer shall be required only to use reasonable efforts to cause any Initial Sub-Servicer engaged by the Master Servicer to comply with the requirements of Article XI. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as is in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, subject to the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, have the right to remove a Sub-Servicer retained by it at any time it considers removal to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders.

(d) In the event the Trustee or its designee becomes a successor master servicer and assumes the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under any Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, at its expense, shall deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to such Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans and, if applicable, the Companion Loans then being serviced thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected and held on behalf of it thereunder, and otherwise use reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of any Sub-Servicing Agreement and this Section 3.20, except to the extent provided in Article XI with respect to the obligations of any Sub-Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall remain obligated and responsible to the Trustee, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Special Servicer), the Special Servicer (with respect to the Master Servicer), holders of the Companion Loans serviced hereunder, the Certificateholders for the performance of each parties’ respective obligations and duties under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible, and the Master Servicer shall pay the fees of any Sub-Servicer engaged by such party thereunder as and when due from its own funds. In no event shall the Trust bear any termination fee required to be paid to any Sub-Servicer as a result of such Sub-Servicer’s termination under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(f) The Trustee, upon the request of the Master Servicer, shall furnish to any Sub-Servicer any documents necessary or appropriate to enable such Sub-Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(g) Each Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that, in the event the Trustee or any other Person becomes a successor master servicer, the Trustee or such successor master servicer shall have the right to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with or without cause and without a fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other contrary provision in this Agreement, the Trustee and any successor master servicer shall assume (a) the Limited Subservicing Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2025, between Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, and 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC (the “Limited Subservicing Agreement”) and (b) each Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement and (i) 3650 REIT Loan Servicing

-270-

LLC’s rights and obligations under the Limited Subservicing Agreement and the Initial Sub-Servicer’s rights and obligations under the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement shall expressly survive a termination of the Master Servicer’s servicing rights under this Agreement; provided that such Limited Subservicing Agreement or any such Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement has not been terminated in accordance with its provisions; (ii) any successor master servicer, including, without limitation, the Trustee (if it assumes the servicing obligations of the Master Servicer) shall be deemed to automatically assume and agree to the Limited Subservicing Agreement and the then-current Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement without further action upon becoming the successor master servicer and (iii) this Agreement may not be modified in any manner which would increase the obligations or limit the rights of 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC or the Initial Sub-Servicer, as applicable, hereunder and/or under the Limited Subservicing Agreement or the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, as applicable, without the prior written consent of 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC or the Initial Sub-Servicer, as applicable (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(h) With respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall, upon request (such request to be made reasonably in advance as appropriate to the circumstances surrounding such request) of the related Sub-Servicer, reasonably cooperate in delivering reports and information, including remittance information, and affording access to information to the related Sub-Servicer that would be required to be delivered or afforded, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall not enter into any Sub-Servicing Agreement which provides for the performance by third parties of any or all of its obligations herein, without, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, except to the extent necessary for the Special Servicer to comply with applicable regulatory requirements.

(i) None of the Master Servicer or any Additional Servicer shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a Sub-Servicer that is a Risk Retention Affiliate of a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer would be a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, absent actual knowledge to the contrary, may conclusively rely upon a representation of any Sub-Servicer that such Sub-Servicer is not a Risk Retention Affiliate of a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser. If at any time the Master Servicer obtains actual knowledge that a Sub-Servicer it has entered into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with, is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2) and is a Risk Retention Affiliate of a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser, the Master Servicer shall terminate such Sub-Servicer in accordance with the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.21 Interest Reserve Account. On the P&I Advance Date occurring in each February and in any January that occurs in a year that is not a leap year (in each case, unless the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator, in respect of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans, shall deposit into the Interest Reserve Account, an amount equal to one (1) day’s interest on the Stated Principal Balance of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans as of the Due Date occurring in the month preceding the month in which the P&I Advance Date occurs at the related Net Mortgage Rate, to the extent a full Periodic Payment or P&I Advance

-271-

is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive February and January, “Withheld Amounts”).

(b) On each P&I Advance Date occurring in March (or February, if the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw, from the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to the Withheld Amounts from the preceding January (if applicable) and February, if any, and deposit such amount into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

Section 3.22 Directing Certificateholder and Operating Advisor Contact with Master Servicer and Special Servicer. Within a reasonable time upon request from the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and no more often than on a monthly basis (or, with respect to communications between the Directing Certificateholder and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on a more frequent basis that is commercially reasonable as mutually agreed to between the Directing Certificateholder and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable), each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, without charge, make a knowledgeable Servicing Officer via telephone available to verbally answer questions from (a) the Directing Certificateholder ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) and (b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor (with respect to the Special Servicer only), regarding the performance and servicing of the Mortgage Loans and/or REO Properties for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is responsible.

Section 3.23 Controlling Class Certificateholders and Directing Certificateholder; Certain Rights and Powers of Directing Certificateholder. (a) Each Controlling Class Certificateholder is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and to notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor of the Transfer of any Certificate of a Controlling Class by delivering a notice to each such Person substantially in the form of Exhibit NN, the selection of a Directing Certificateholder or the resignation or removal thereof. The Directing Certificateholder (other than the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor when such Certificateholder is appointed Directing Certificateholder and when it is removed or resigns. To the extent there is only one Controlling Class Certificateholder and it is also the Special Servicer, it shall be the Directing Certificateholder. In any case, such notification may be delivered via electronic mail.

On the Closing Date, the initial Directing Certificateholder (other than the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall execute and deliver a certification to all parties to this Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of the existing Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder), any successor directing certificateholder shall also deliver a certification to all parties to this Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new Directing Certificateholder.

-272-

(b) Once a Directing Certificateholder has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless the Controlling Class Certificateholders entitled to appoint the Directing Certificateholder, by Certificate Balance, or such Directing Certificateholder shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Controlling Class Certificateholder, in writing, of the resignation of such Directing Certificateholder or the selection of a new Directing Certificateholder. In the event that (i) the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor receives written notice from a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders that a Directing Certificateholder is no longer designated and (ii) the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or a representative thereof) becomes the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to the proviso of the definition of “Directing Certificateholder”, then the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or its representative) shall provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor that it is the new Directing Certificateholder; provided that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the written notification provided by the purported Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class without independently verifying that such Controlling Class Certificateholder actually owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class. The foregoing provisions shall not be applicable to the Directing Certificateholder that is a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder.

(c) Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of the Controlling Class Certificateholder and the Directing Certificateholder.

(d) In the event that no Directing Certificateholder has been appointed or identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then until such time as the new Directing Certificateholder is identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of any such Directing Certificateholder.

(e) Upon request, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Depositor, Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder, a list of each Controlling Class Certificateholder as reflected in the Certificate Register, including names and addresses. In addition to the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice of the selection of a new Directing Certificateholder or the existence of a new Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 3650 Real

-273-

Estate Investment Trust 2 LLC shall be the initial Directing Certificateholder (but not a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) and shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or until a Consultation Termination Event occurs and is continuing.

Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the preceding sentence with respect to the identity of the Directing Certificateholder.

(f) If the Certificate Administrator determines that a Class of Book-Entry Certificates is the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the related Certificateholders of such Class (through the Depository) of the Class becoming the Controlling Class.

(g) Each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Directing Certificateholder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii) the Directing Certificateholder may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class or in its own interest; (iii) the Directing Certificateholder does not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Controlling Class (or in the case of a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder has no liabilities or duties to the Controlling Class or the Holders of any Class of Certificates); (iv) the Directing Certificateholder may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of one or more Classes including the Controlling Class or itself over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Certificates; and (v) the Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to a Controlling Class Certificateholder; provided that a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder shall have no such liability) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Certificateholder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of the Directing Certificateholder for having so acted.

(h) All requirements of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to provide notices, reports, statements or other information (including the access to information on a website) to the Directing Certificateholder contained in this Agreement shall also apply to each Companion Holder with respect to information relating to the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable; provided, however, that nothing in this subsection (h) shall in any way eliminate the obligation to deliver any information required to be delivered under the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(i) Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity and contact information of the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Directing Certificateholder and any Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder.

(j) With respect to a Serviced Whole Loan and any approval and consent rights in this Agreement with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall exercise such rights in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement.

-274-

(k) The Certificate Registrar shall determine which Class of Certificates is the then-current Controlling Class within two (2) Business Days of a request from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, or any Certificateholder and provide such information to the requesting party.

(l) At any time that the Controlling Class Certificateholder is the holder of a majority of the Class F-RR Certificates and the Class F-RR Certificates are the Controlling Class, it may waive its right (a) to appoint the Directing Certificateholder and (b) to exercise any of the Directing Certificateholder’s rights under this Agreement by irrevocable written notice delivered to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator (which shall be via email to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during such time as a Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event is in existence solely as a result of the operation of clause (ii) of the definition of Control Termination Event and clause (ii) of the definition of Consultation Termination Event, such Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to no longer be in existence and have not occurred with respect to any unaffiliated third party to whom the Controlling Class Certificateholder that irrevocably waived its right to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder has sold or transferred all or a portion of its interest in the Class F-RR Certificates if such unaffiliated third party holds the majority of the Controlling Class after giving effect to such transfer (the “Non-Waiving Successor”). Following any such sale or transfer, the Non-Waiving Successor shall again have the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder as set forth herein (including the rights to appoint a Directing Certificateholder or cause the exercise of the rights of the Directing Certificateholder) without regard to any prior waiver by the predecessor Controlling Class Certificateholder. The Non-Waiving Successor shall also have the right to irrevocably waive its right to appoint the Directing Certificateholder and to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder. The Non-Waiving Successor shall also have the right to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder. No Non-Waiving Successor described above shall have any consent rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan that became a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the sale or transfer of the Class F-RR Certificates to the Non-Waiving Successor and had not also become a Corrected Loan prior to such sale or transfer until such time as such Mortgage Loan becomes a Corrected Loan.

(m) Promptly upon its determination of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) include on its statement made available pursuant to Section 4.02(a) of this Agreement the identity of the new Controlling Class and (ii) provide to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor notice of such event and the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Certificateholder (the cost of obtaining such information from DTC being an expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer within ten (10) Business Days of the existence or cessation of (i) any Control Termination Event, (ii) any Consultation Termination Event or (iii) any Operating Advisor Consultation Event. Upon the Certificate Administrator’s determination that a Control Termination Event, a Consultation Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred or is terminated, the Certificate Administrator shall, within ten (10) Business Days, post a “special notice” on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to this provision.

-275-

In the event that a Control Termination Event has occurred due to a reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class F-RR Certificates (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of such Class in accordance with Section 4.05(a)) to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof, such special notice shall state “A Control Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class F-RR Certificates to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof.”

In the event that a Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the irrevocable waiver by a Class F-RR Certificateholder, who has become the Controlling Class Certificateholder, of its right to appoint a Directing Certificateholder or to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder, such special notice shall state “A Control Termination Event and a Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the irrevocable waiver by the Controlling Class Certificateholder of its rights as Controlling Class Certificateholder.”

In the event that a Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of each Class of Control Eligible Certificates below 25% of its Original Certificate Balance, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts, such special notice shall state: “A Consultation Termination Event has occurred because no Class of Control Eligible Certificates exists where such Class’s aggregate Certificate Balance is at least equal to 25% of the Original Certificate Balance of that Class, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts.”

In the event of any transfer of a Class F-RR Certificate, and upon notice to the Certificate Administrator in the form of Exhibit NN that results in a termination of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event, such “special notice” shall state: “A Consultation Termination Event or a Control Termination Event has been terminated and is no longer in effect due to a Transfer of a majority interest of the Controlling Class Certificates to an unaffiliated third party which has terminated any waiver by the prior Holder.”

In the event that an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred due to the reduction of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the HRR Certificates to 25% or below of their aggregate Original Certificate Balance, taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts, such special notice shall state: “An Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred because the aggregate Certificate Balance of the HRR Certificates has been reduced to 25% or below of their aggregate Original Certificate Balance.”

With respect to any Mortgage Loan determined to be an Excluded Loan, none of the Directing Certificateholder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder shall have any consent or consultation rights with respect to the servicing of such Excluded Loan and a Control Termination Event and Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Excluded Loan.

Section 3.24 Intercreditor Agreements. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Serviced Whole Loan being serviced under this Agreement and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt is subject to the terms and

-276-

provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement and each agrees to service each such Serviced Whole Loan, and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, effecting distributions and allocating reimbursement of expenses in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the terms and provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement do not affect the right of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor to receive Servicing Fees (without taking into account any portion thereof that constitutes a primary servicing fee), Trustee Fees, Certificate Administrator Fees or Operating Advisor Fees that are payable hereunder solely from amounts allocable to and payable from collections on the related Mortgage Loan as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contrary in this Agreement, each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer agrees not to take any action with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt or the related Mortgaged Property without the prior consent of the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, to the extent that the related Intercreditor Agreement provides that such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, is required or permitted to consent to such action. Each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Companion Holder and each mezzanine lender or its respective designee has the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement to the extent provided for therein. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer further acknowledges and agrees that any Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder will have the right to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan, to the extent provided for herein and in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for any cost, claim or damage that arises from any entitlement in favor of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender under the related Intercreditor Agreement or conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of any Intercreditor Agreement that may otherwise require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to abide by any instruction or direction of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to comply with any instruction or direction the compliance with which requires an Advance that constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. In no event shall any expense arising from compliance with an Intercreditor Agreement constitute an expense to be borne by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for its own account without reimbursement. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be required to consult with or obtain the consent of any Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender unless such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender has delivered notice of its identity and contact information to each of the parties to this Agreement (upon which notice each of the parties to this Agreement shall be conclusively entitled to rely). As of the Closing Date, the contact information for the Companion Holders and mezzanine lenders is as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, be required to consult with or obtain the consent of a new Directing Certificateholder or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder unless the Certificate Administrator has delivered notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as required under Section 3.23(e) or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, have actual knowledge of the identity

-277-

and contact information of a new Directing Certificateholder or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder.

(c) No direction or disapproval of the Companion Holders or any mezzanine lender shall (a) require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC, (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions or (c) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, Trustee’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

(d) With respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, notwithstanding any rights the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder hereunder may have to consult with respect to any action or other matter with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan, to the extent the related Intercreditor Agreement provides that such right is exercisable by the related Companion Holder or is exercisable in conjunction with any related Companion Holder, the Directing Certificateholder shall not be permitted to exercise such right or, to the extent provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement, shall be required to exercise such right in conjunction with the related Companion Holder, as applicable (except to the extent that the Directing Certificateholder is the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder). Additionally, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall consult, seek the approval or obtain the consent of the holder of any Serviced Companion Loan with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan to the extent required under related Intercreditor Agreement and shall not take such actions requiring consent of the related Companion Holder without such consent. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deliver reports and notices to the related Companion Holder as required under the Intercreditor Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a)(i) with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan the Special Servicer (with respect to any Major Decision (other than with respect to actions described in subclauses (A) or (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decisions”, which the Master Servicer shall process without first seeking the agreement of the Special Servicer) or Special Servicer Decision, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that, in connection with any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes a Major Decision (other than with respect to actions described in subclauses (A) or (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decisions”, which the Master Servicer shall process without first seeking the agreement of the Special Servicer) or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer shall process and determine whether to consent, subject to the consent of the Special Servicer, to such modification, waiver or amendment) or the Master Servicer (with respect to any modification, waiver or amendment that does not constitute a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision), or (ii) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be required (i) to the extent the required notice address has been provided, to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Controlling Class Certificateholder pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report

-278-

relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the related Companion Holder, within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Controlling Class Certificateholder (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Controlling Class Certificateholder under this Agreement due to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with any related Companion Holder on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such related Companion Holder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such related Companion Holder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such related Companion Holder by the Special Servicer of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall no longer be obligated to consult with such related Companion Holder, whether or not such related Companion Holder has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless the Special Servicer proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the consultation rights of the related Companion Holder set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Special Servicer determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder. In no event shall the Special Servicer be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by the related Companion Holder.

(f) Each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder shall have the right to attend (in person or telephonically, in the discretion of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be) annual meetings with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the related Whole Loan are discussed.

(g) With respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall not modify, waive or amend the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement such that the monthly remittance to the holder of the related Companion Loan is required earlier than 2 Business Days after receipt by the Master Servicer of the related Periodic Payment without the consent of the Master Servicer.

(h) To the extent not otherwise expressly included herein, any provisions required to be included herein pursuant to any Intercreditor Agreement for a Whole Loan are deemed incorporated herein by reference, and the parties hereto shall comply with those provisions as if set forth herein in full.

(i) With respect to the Serviced AB Whole Loan, notwithstanding any rights the Directing Certificateholder hereunder may have to consult with respect to any action or other matter with respect to the servicing of such Serviced AB Whole Loan, to the extent the related

-279-

Intercreditor Agreement provides that such right is exercisable by the related Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative or is exercisable in conjunction with the related Subordinate Companion Holder, then the Directing Certificateholder shall not be permitted to exercise such right. Additionally, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall consult with, seek the approval of, or obtain the consent of the Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement and shall not take such actions requiring consent of or consultation with such Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative without such consent or consultation (or deemed consent or consultation). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver information, reports and notices to the Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative as and to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement; provided that if such Subordinate Companion Holder is a Borrower Party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, then such Subordinate Companion Holder shall not be entitled to receive any information that would constitute Excluded Information if such AB Whole Loan were an Excluded Controlling Class Loan. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer further acknowledges and agrees that any AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder will have the right to exercise the rights of the Directing Certificateholder under this Agreement to the extent provided for in, and subject to the terms of, the related Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 3.25 Rating Agency Confirmation. (a) Notwithstanding the terms of any related Mortgage Loan documents or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under any Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement requires Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action, if the party (the “RAC Requesting Party”) attempting and/or required to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has made a request to any Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation and, within ten (10) Business Days of the Rating Agency Confirmation request being posted to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, such Rating Agency has not replied to such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then such RAC Requesting Party shall be required to confirm (through direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) that the applicable Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and, if it has not, promptly request the related Rating Agency Confirmation again (which may be through direct communication). The circumstances described in the preceding sentence are referred to in this Agreement as a “RAC No-Response Scenario”. Once the RAC Requesting Party has sent a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation to the 17g-5 Information Provider, such RAC Requesting Party may, but shall not be obligated to send such request directly to the Rating Agencies in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 13.10(d).

If there is no response to such Rating Agency Confirmation request within five (5) Business Days of such second request in a RAC No-Response Scenario or if such Rating Agency has responded in a manner that indicates such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then (x) with respect to any condition in any Mortgage Loan document requiring such Rating Agency Confirmation or with respect to any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than as set forth in clause (y) below), the requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) with respect to

-280-

such Rating Agency and the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, if the Master Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, REO Mortgage Loans and Non-Specially Serviced Loans if the Special Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such Non-Specially Serviced Loans), as the case may be, may then take such action if the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, if the Master Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, REO Mortgage Loans and Non-Specially Serviced Loans if the Special Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such Non-Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, confirms its original determination (made prior to making such request) that taking the action with respect to which it requested the Rating Agency Confirmation would still be consistent with the Servicing Standard, and (y) with respect to a replacement of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, such condition shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) if (i) the replacement master servicer or special servicer has been appointed and currently serves as a master servicer or a special servicer, as applicable, on a transaction-level basis on a CMBS transaction currently rated by Moody’s that currently has securities outstanding and for which Moody’s has not cited servicing concerns with respect to such replacement master servicer or special servicer as the sole or a material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in a CMBS transaction serviced by the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if Moody’s is the non-responding Rating Agency, (ii) the replacement master servicer or special servicer is rated at least “CMS3” (in the case of the master servicer) or “CSS3” (in the case of the special servicer), if Fitch is the non-responding Rating Agency or (iii) KBRA has not publicly cited servicing concerns with respect to the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer as the sole or a material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other CMBS transaction serviced by such replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if KBRA is the non-responding Rating Agency.

Any Rating Agency Confirmation request made by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made in writing, which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and shall contain all back-up material necessary for the Rating Agency to process such request. Such written Rating Agency Confirmation request shall be provided in electronic format to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such request on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

Promptly following the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination to take any action discussed in this Section 3.25(a) following any requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation being deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide electronic written notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider of the action taken for the particular item at such time, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

-281-

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.25, for purposes of the provisions of any Mortgage Loan document relating to defeasance (including without limitation the type of collateral acceptable for use as defeasance collateral) or release or substitution of any collateral, any Rating Agency Confirmation requirement in the Mortgage Loan documents for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would have been permitted to waive obtaining or to make a determination with respect to such Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to Section 3.25(a) shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist).

(c) For all other matters or actions not specifically discussed in Section 3.25(a) above, the applicable RAC Requesting Party shall deliver Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency.

Section 3.26 The Operating Advisor. (a) The Operating Advisor shall review (i) the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (as provided in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(b), Section 3.19(d), Section 3.26 and Section 6.08) and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to Major Decisions relating to any Mortgage Loan, (ii) all reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and that are relevant to the Operating Advisor’s obligations hereunder and (iii) each Asset Status Report (after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and (iv) each Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer. The Operating Advisor shall perform its duties hereunder in accordance with the Operating Advisor Standard. Furthermore, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation or responsibility at any time to review the actions of the Master Servicer for compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor will not be required to consider such Master Servicer actions in connection with any Operating Advisor Annual Report.

(b) The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep confidential any information appropriately labeled “Privileged Information” received from the Special Servicer or Directing Certificateholder in connection with the Directing Certificateholder’s exercise of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the review and/or approval of any Asset Status Report or Final Asset Status Report), subject to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree requiring the disclosure of such Privileged Information. Subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement related to Privileged Information, the Operating Advisor agrees that it shall use information received from the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement solely for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder.

(c) (i) Based on the Operating Advisor’s review of (1) any assessment of compliance report, attestation report, and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year, (2) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, any related Final Asset Status Report or approved or deemed approved Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer, and (3) after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, any Asset Status Report

-282-

and any Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Operating Advisor shall (but only if any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan at any time during the prior calendar year or if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event occurred during the prior calendar year) deliver to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of the prior calendar year, an annual report (the “Operating Advisor Annual Report”), substantially in the form of Exhibit V (which form may be modified or altered as to either its organization or content by the Operating Advisor, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, provisions herein relating to Privileged Information; provided, however, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in the Operating Advisor Annual Report contravene any provision of this Agreement), setting forth whether the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer is operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, also with respect to Major Decisions on Non-Specially Serviced Loans) during the prior calendar year on a “trust-level basis” and identifying (1) which, if any, standards with which the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, the Special Servicer has failed to comply and (2) any material deviations from the Special Servicer’s obligations hereunder with respect to the resolution or liquidation of any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property (other than with respect to any REO Property related to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan); provided, further, however, that in the event the Special Servicer is replaced, the Operating Advisor Annual Report shall only relate to the special servicer that was acting as Special Servicer as of December 31 in the prior calendar year and is continuing in such capacity through the date of such Operating Advisor Annual Report; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall prepare a separate Operating Advisor Annual Report relating to each Excluded Special Servicer and any Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s) serviced by such Excluded Special Servicer. In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviation from, the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be immaterial. Subject to the restrictions in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.26(c), each such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall (A) identify any material deviations (i) from the Servicing Standard and (ii) from the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to the resolution or liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans or REO Properties that the Special Servicer is responsible for servicing under this Agreement (other than with respect to any REO Property related to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and (B) comply with all of the confidentiality requirements described in this Agreement regarding Privileged Information (subject to any permitted exceptions). In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion. Such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b)) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)), with a copy of the final Operating Advisor Annual Report to the Special Servicer; provided, however, that the Special

-283-

Servicer shall be given an opportunity to review the Operating Advisor Annual Report at least five (5) Business Days prior to its delivery to the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider. The Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to adopt any comments to the Operating Advisor Annual Report that are provided by the Special Servicer. Only as used in this Section 3.26 in connection with the Operating Advisor Annual Report, the term “trust-level basis” refers to the Special Servicer’s performance of its duties with respect to the resolution and liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, also with respect to Major Decisions on Non-Specially Serviced Loans), taking into account the Special Servicer’s specific duties under this Agreement as well as the extent to which those duties were performed in accordance with the Servicing Standard, with reasonable consideration by the Operating Advisor of any assessment of compliance report, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package, Asset Status Report (during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), Final Asset Status Report and any other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer (other than any communications between the Directing Certificateholder and the Special Servicer that would be Privileged Information) pursuant to this Agreement.

(ii) In the event the Operating Advisor’s ability to perform its obligations in respect of the Operating Advisor Annual Report is limited or prohibited due to the failure of a party hereto to timely deliver information required to be delivered to the Operating Advisor or because such information is inaccurate or incomplete, the Operating Advisor shall set forth such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from such limitations or prohibitions. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy and completeness of any information it is provided without liability for any such reliance hereunder. In the event a lack of access to Privileged Information limits or prohibits the Operating Advisor from performing its duties under this Agreement, the Operating Advisor shall set forth any such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from its lack of access to Privileged Information.

(d) [RESERVED].

(e) (i) With respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, after the calculation has been finalized (and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, prior to the utilization by the Special Servicer) of any of the calculations related to (i) Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer, (ii) Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer, (iii) Collateral Deficiency Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer or (iv) net present value in accordance with Section 1.02(iv) calculated by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall forward such calculations, together with any supporting material or additional information necessary in support thereof (including such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor to confirm the mathematical accuracy of such calculations, but not including any Privileged Communications), to the Operating Advisor promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after preparing such calculations, and the Operating Advisor shall promptly, but no later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of such calculations and any supporting or additional materials, recalculate and review for

-284-

accuracy and consistency with this Agreement the mathematical calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portion of the applicable formulas required to be utilized in connection with any such calculation.

(ii) In connection with this Section 3.26(e), in the event the Operating Advisor does not agree with the mathematical calculations of the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (in each case, as calculated by the Special Servicer) or net present value or the application of the applicable non-discretionary portions of the formula required to be utilized for such calculation, the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer shall consult with each other in order to resolve any material inaccuracy in the mathematical calculations or the application of the non-discretionary portions of the related formula in arriving at those mathematical calculations or any disagreement within five (5) Business Days of delivery of such calculations. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Special Servicer and provide any information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer necessary for the calculation of the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount and in the Master Servicer’s possession or reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer. In the event the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer are not able to resolve such inaccuracies or disagreement prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day period, the Operating Advisor shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such disagreement and the Certificate Administrator shall examine the calculations and supporting materials provided by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer and determine which calculation is to apply and shall provide such parties prompt written notice of its determination.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review shall be limited to an after-the-action review of any assessment of compliance, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package relating to a Specially Serviced Loan, Asset Status Report, Final Asset Status Report and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year (together with any additional information and material reviewed by the Operating Advisor), and, therefore, it shall have no specific involvement with respect to collateral substitutions, assignments, workouts, modifications, consents, waivers, lockbox management, Insurance Policies, borrower substitutions, lease changes, additional borrower debt, defeasances, property management changes, releases from escrow, assumptions and other similar actions that the Special Servicer may perform under this Agreement and shall have no obligations at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. In addition, with respect to the Operating Advisor’s review of net present value, Collateral Deficiency Amounts, Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount or Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations as described above, the Operating Advisor’s recalculation shall not take into account the reasonableness of Special Servicer’s property and Mortgagor performance assumptions or other similar discretionary portions of the net present value, Collateral Deficiency Amounts and Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount calculation.

(g) The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep all information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information” confidential and shall not, without the prior

-285-

written consent of the Special Servicer and (for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing) the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan and other than any Excluded Loan) disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders other than the Directing Certificateholder), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information, (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception or (3) where necessary to support specific findings or conclusions concerning allegations of deviations from the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement (i) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report or (ii) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor to replace the Special Servicer. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Operating Advisor with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan or any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. In addition and for the avoidance of doubt, while the Operating Advisor may serve in a similar capacity with respect to Other Securitizations that involve the same parties or borrower involved in this securitization, the knowledge of the employees performing operating advisor functions for such Other Securitizations shall not be imputed to the employees of the Operating Advisor involved in this securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to share Privileged Information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor that agree in writing to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor.

(h) Subject to the requirements of confidentiality imposed on the Operating Advisor herein (including without limitation in respect of Privileged Information), the Operating Advisor shall respond to Inquiries proposed by Privileged Persons from time to time in accordance with the terms of Section 4.07(a).

(i) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to receive the Operating Advisor Fee on each Remittance Date with respect to each Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan. As to each Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan, the Operating Advisor Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Operating Advisor Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on the related Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed.

The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to reimbursement of any Operating Advisor Expenses provided for pursuant to Section 6.04(a) and/or Section 6.04(b), such amounts to be reimbursed from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05(a). Each successor operating advisor shall be required to acknowledge and agree to the terms of the preceding sentence.

-286-

In addition, the Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable to the Operating Advisor with respect to each Major Decision for which the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations hereunder. The Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(a)(ii) of this Agreement, but, with respect to the period when the outstanding Certificate Balances of the Control Eligible Certificates have not been reduced to zero as a result of the allocation of Realized Losses to such Certificates, only to the extent such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee is actually received from the related Mortgagor. When the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations with respect to a Major Decision under this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect the applicable Operating Advisor Consulting Fee from the related Mortgagor in connection with such Major Decision, and only to the extent not prohibited by the related Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, may waive or reduce the amount of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee payable by the related Mortgagor if it determines that such full or partial waiver is in accordance with the Servicing Standard, but in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer take any enforcement action with respect to the collection of such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee other than requests for collection; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult, on a non-binding basis, with the Operating Advisor prior to any such waiver or reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligations or consultation rights in its capacity as operating advisor with respect to: (i) any Non-Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property, except in limited circumstances or (ii) any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of both an AB Control Appraisal Period and a Control Termination Event; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall not be entitled to an Operating Advisor Consulting Fee with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan.

(j) After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Operating Advisor may be removed upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of Classes to which such Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts are allocable) requesting a vote to replace the Operating Advisor with a replacement Operating Advisor selected by such Certificateholders (provided that the proposed replacement Operating Advisor is an Eligible Operating Advisor), (ii) payment by such requesting Holders to the Certificate Administrator of all reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and (iii) receipt by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmations will be obtained by the Certificate Administrator at the expense of such Holders and will not constitute an additional expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders of such request by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail, and conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard. Upon the vote or written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of Classes to which such Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts are allocable), the Trustee shall immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date

-287-

of such termination (including accrued and unpaid compensation) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination)) by prior written notice to the Operating Advisor, and the proposed successor operating advisor will be appointed.

(k) After the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Trustee may, and upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of the Classes of Certificates), the Trustee shall promptly terminate the Operating Advisor for cause and appoint a replacement Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor; provided that no such termination shall be effective until a successor operating advisor has been appointed and has assumed all of the obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement. No such termination shall terminate, change, reduce, or otherwise modify the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor that accrued prior to such termination, including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement, and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination). The Trustee may rely on a certification by the replacement Operating Advisor that it is an Eligible Operating Advisor. Upon any termination of the Operating Advisor and appointment of a successor to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, be required to give written notice of the termination and appointment to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website), the Depositor, the Directing Certificateholder, any Companion Loan holder and the Certificateholders.

(l) The Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights affected by any Operating Advisor Termination Event hereunder may waive such Operating Advisor Termination Event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice from the Trustee of the occurrence of such Operating Advisor Termination Event.

otherwise with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of a Borrower-Related Party under the related Mortgage Loan documents (“Trust-Related Litigation”).

(e) Notwithstanding the right of the Special Servicer provided under this Section 3.32 to represent the interests of the Trust in Trust Related Litigation, the Master Servicer shall retain the right at all times to make determinations relating to material and direct claims against the Master Servicer where a settlement by the Special Servicer has not otherwise been resolved pursuant to the terms of subsection (g) below, including but not limited to the right to engage separate counsel, to make settlement decisions and to appear in any proceeding on its own behalf. The cost related to or incurred in connection with exercising such rights shall be subject to indemnification as and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

-296-

assurance reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as to the items in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv).

(i) This Section 3.32 shall not apply in the event, and to the extent, that the Special Servicer authorizes the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer agrees (both authority and agreement to be in writing), to make certain decisions or control certain Trust-Related Litigation on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the requirements of the final sentence in Section 3.01(b) and subject to the power of attorney (i) in the event that any action, suit, litigation or proceeding names the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, in its individual capacity, or in the event that any judgment is rendered against the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, in its individual capacity, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, upon prior written notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may retain counsel and appear in any such proceeding on its own behalf in order to protect and represent its interests (but not to otherwise direct, manage or prosecute such litigation or claim); (ii) in the event of any action, suit, litigation or proceeding, other than an action, suit, litigation or proceeding relating to the enforcement of the obligations of a Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor under the related Mortgage Loan documents, or otherwise relating to one or more Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, without the prior written consent of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, (A) initiate an action, suit, litigation or proceeding in the name of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, whether in such capacity or individually, (B) engage counsel to represent the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, (C) settle any claim giving rise to liability to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, in its individual capacity or (D) prepare, execute or deliver any government filings, forms, permits, registrations or other documents or take any other similar action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, to be registered to do business in any state (provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any delay due to the unwillingness of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, to grant such consent); and (iii) in the event that any court finds that the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, is a necessary party in respect of any action, suit, litigation or proceeding relating to or arising from this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, shall have the right to retain counsel and appear in any such proceeding on its own behalf in order to protect and represent its interests, whether as the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, or individually (but not to otherwise direct, manage or prosecute such litigation or claim); provided that nothing in this subsection shall be interpreted to preclude the Special Servicer (with respect to any material Trust-Related Litigation, with the consent or consultation of the Directing

-297-

Certificateholder (prior to a Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event, respectively, and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan), to the extent required in Section 3.32(c)) from initiating any action, suit, litigation or proceeding in its name as representative of the Trustee of the Trust.

Section 3.34 Certain Matters with Respect to Joint Mortgage Loans.

(a) If a Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan (a “Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller”) repurchases, or substitutes for, the Mortgage Note(s) (as such term is defined in this Section 3.34(a)) (a “Repurchased Note”) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, but the other Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan does not repurchase, or substitute for, the Mortgage Note(s) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, the provisions of this Section 3.34 shall apply prior to the adoption, pursuant to Section 13.01(l), of any amendment to this Agreement that provides otherwise. Each Mortgage Loan Seller of a Joint Mortgage Loan has agreed pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that the terms set forth in this Section 3.34 with respect to the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan shall apply if one or more of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan has been repurchased or, by way of substitution, otherwise removed from the Trust and at least one other Mortgage Note related to such Joint Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust until such time as all of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan are no longer included in the Trust. For purposes of this Section 3.34, Section 13.01(l) and Section 13.08(a) only, “Mortgage Note” shall mean with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each original promissory note that collectively represents the Mortgage Note (as defined in Article I) with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and shall not be a collective reference to such promissory notes.

(b) Custody of and record title under the Mortgage Loan documents with respect to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan shall be held exclusively by the Custodian as provided under this Agreement or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Non-Serviced Custodian as provided under the related Non-Serviced PSA, except that the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall hold and retain title to its original Repurchased Note(s) and any related endorsements thereof.

(i) All of the Mortgage Notes with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Mortgage Note shall have priority or preference over any other portion of the other Mortgage Notes or security therefor. Payments from the related Mortgagor (including, without limitation, any Penalty Charges) or any other

-299-

amounts received with respect to each Mortgage Note shall be collected as provided in this Agreement by the Master Servicer and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Payments or any other amounts received with respect to the related Repurchased Note shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and remitted (net of its pro rata share of amounts payable at the Administrative Cost Rate and any other amounts due to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer) to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee by the Master Servicer on each Distribution Date pursuant to instructions provided by the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and deposited and applied in accordance with this Agreement, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). If any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies becomes an REO Loan, payments or any other amounts received with respect to any such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be collected and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Any Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan subject to this Section 3.34 shall be allocated to each related Mortgage Note, pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof.

(ii) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives an aggregate payment of less than the aggregate amount due under any such Joint Mortgage Loan at any particular time, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive from the Master Servicer an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such payment. All expenses, losses and shortfalls relating solely to such Joint Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, losses of principal or interest, Nonrecoverable Advances, interest on Servicing Advances, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees (including any such fees related to the applicable Mortgage Notes), shall be allocated between the holders of the related Mortgage Notes pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof. In no event shall any costs, expenses, fees or any other amounts related to any Mortgage Loan or Joint Mortgage Loan other than the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan be deducted from payments or any other amounts received with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and payable to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller.

(iii) A Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.34 applies shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and the Certificateholders and any Companion Holders pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in accordance with the Servicing Standard and in accordance with the provisions herein as if (A) such Joint Mortgage Loan were a Serviced Whole Loan (and, if such Joint Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan or Non-Serviced Whole Loan, such Joint Mortgage Loan shall continue to be serviced and administered under the applicable Intercreditor Agreement), (B) the related Mortgage Note(s) not repurchased were (1) a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and (2) the only Mortgage Loan that is part of such Joint Mortgage Loan (or related Serviced Whole Loan), and (C) the related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. A Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing

-300-

Mortgage Loan Seller, the Certificateholders and any Companion Holders pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Non-Serviced PSA. No Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to terminate the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor as servicer, special servicer or operating advisor, respectively, of the related Repurchased Note. All rights of the mortgagee under each such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trust to the extent of its interest therein and the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and any Companion Holders in accordance with this Agreement or the Non-Serviced PSA, as applicable.

(iv) The related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be treated hereunder as if it were a Companion Loan holder on a pari passu basis. Other than with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, funds collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and applied to the applicable Mortgage Notes shall be deposited and disbursed in accordance with the provisions hereof relating to holders of promissory notes comprising Serviced Whole Loans that are pari passu in right of payment. Compensation shall be paid to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor with respect to each Repurchased Note as provided in this Agreement as if each such Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or Non-Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, as applicable. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to any Repurchased Note or, if no related Mortgage Note is part of the Trust, a Servicing Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note. Except as otherwise specified herein, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have no reporting requirement with respect to any Repurchased Note other than to deliver to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller any document as is required to be delivered to a holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or a Non-Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, as applicable, hereunder.

(v) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, with respect to each Joint Mortgage Loan, the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement shall continue to apply to all of the Mortgage Notes comprising such Mortgage Loan, including any Repurchased Note.

(c) If any non-repurchased Mortgage Note relating to a Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies is a Specially Serviced Loan, then any related Repurchased Note shall also be a Specially Serviced Loan under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall cause such related Repurchased Note to be specially serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and shall be entitled to any Special Servicing Fee, Workout Fee or Liquidation Fee payable to the Special Servicer under this Agreement as with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(d) If (A) the Master Servicer shall pay any amount to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the terms hereof in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been made or will be received or collected in connection with any or all of the

-301-

applicable Mortgage Notes and (B) such related payment is not received or collected by the Master Servicer, then the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer return such amount to the Master Servicer. If the Master Servicer determines at any time that any amount received or collected by the Master Servicer in respect of any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies must be returned to the related Mortgagor or paid to any other person or entity pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, and such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer repay (which obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement) any portion thereof that the Master Servicer shall have distributed to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Master Servicer may pay to the related Mortgagor or such other person or entity with respect thereto.

(e) Subject to this Agreement and any Non-Serviced PSA (including, without limitation, the consent and consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder and any consultation rights of the Operating Advisor or analogous rights under the Non-Serviced PSA), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the holders of any of the Repurchased Notes, shall have the exclusive right and obligation to (i) administer, service and make all decisions and determinations regarding the related Joint Mortgage Loan and (ii) enforce the applicable Mortgage Loan documents as provided hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, may agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive interest on and principal of, capitalize interest on, permit the release, addition or substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of the related Mortgagor on or any guarantor of any Joint Mortgage Loan it is required to service and administer as contemplated by this Section 3.34, without the consent of the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, subject, however, to the terms of this Agreement as they pertain to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan and any Non-Serviced PSA as they pertain to a pari passu companion loan.

(f) In taking or refraining from taking any action permitted hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be subject to the same degree of care with respect to the administration and servicing of the Joint Mortgage Loans to which this Section 3.34 applies as is consistent with this Agreement and shall be liable to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller only to the same extent as set forth herein with respect to any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(g) If the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made a Servicing Advance or the Non-Serviced Trustee, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer has made a servicing advance under the related Non-Serviced PSA with respect to any Repurchased Note which would otherwise be reimbursable to such advancing party under this Agreement or Non-Serviced PSA, and such Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall reimburse the Trust or Non-Serviced Trust, as applicable, in an amount equal to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller’s Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such Nonrecoverable Advance with interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan

-302-

Seller shall not be obligated to reimburse the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Trustee, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer (and amounts due to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be offset) for Advances or interest thereon or any amounts related to any Mortgage Loans or any other Joint Mortgage Loan other than such amounts relating to the applicable Repurchased Note. To the extent that the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller reimburses any such Nonrecoverable Advances and such amounts are subsequently recovered, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive a reimbursement from such recovery based on its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such recovery. This reimbursement right shall not limit the Trustee’s, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s rights to reimbursement under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the total liability of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not exceed an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of the amount to be reimbursed.

(h) Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right to assign the related Repurchased Note; provided that the assignee of the related Repurchased Note shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(i) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, in connection with their servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement, exercise efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to execute and deliver, on behalf of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller as a holder of a pari passu interest in the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan, any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents and instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage or other security document related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to the related Joint Mortgage Loan documents, and any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments with respect to the related Repurchased Note or related Repurchased Notes and the related Mortgaged Property all in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement. Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan; provided that such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be liable, and shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; and further provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, without the written consent of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, shall not initiate any action in the name of such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller without indicating its representative capacity or take any action with the intent to cause and that actually causes, such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller to be registered to do business in any state.

For purposes of the first paragraph of this Section 4.01(f), the relevant “Base Interest Fraction” in connection with any Principal Prepayment of any Mortgage Loan that provides for the payment of a Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium, and with respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates, shall be a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the greater of (x) zero and (y) the difference between (i) the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate and (B) the denominator of which is the difference between (i) the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate; provided that: (a) under no circumstances shall the Base Interest Fraction be greater than 1.0; (b) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and is greater than or equal to the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, then the Base Interest Fraction shall equal zero; and (c) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and is less than the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, then the Base Interest Fraction shall be equal to 1.0. If a Mortgage Loan provides for a step-up in the Mortgage Rate, then the Mortgage Rate used in the determination of the Base Interest Fraction shall be the Mortgage Rate in effect at the time of the prepayment.

For purposes of the preceding paragraph, the relevant “Discount Rate” in connection with any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge collected on any prepaid Mortgage Loan or REO Loan and distributable on any Distribution Date shall be a rate per annum equal to (i) if a discount rate was used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, such discount rate (as reported by the Master Servicer), converted (if necessary) to a monthly equivalent yield, or (ii) if a discount rate was not used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, the yield calculated by the linear interpolation of the yields as reported under the heading “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Constant Maturities” in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) published by the Federal Reserve Board for the week most recently ended before the date of the relevant prepayment (or deemed prepayment) of U.S. Treasury constant maturities with a maturity date, one longer and one shorter, most nearly approximating the related stated Maturity Date, such interpolated treasury yield converted to a monthly equivalent yield. If Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) is no longer published, the Master Servicer shall select a comparable publication as the source of the applicable yields of U.S. Treasury constant maturities.

No Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

All distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges and Prepayment Premiums made on each Distribution Date pursuant to this Section 4.01(f) shall first be deemed to be distributed from the Loan REMIC to the Lower-Tier REMIC in respect of the Loan REMIC Regular Interest, if applicable, and then from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, pro rata based upon the amount of principal distributed in respect of each such Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(c) above.

(h) On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw amounts from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (other than amounts with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall distribute such amounts to reimburse the Holders of the Certificates (in order of their principal distribution priority) (first deeming such amounts to be distributed with respect to the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests) up to an amount equal to all Realized Losses, if any, previously deemed allocated to them and unreimbursed after application of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(a). Amounts paid from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall not reduce the Certificate Balances of the Classes of Certificates receiving such distributions. Any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account after such distributions shall be applied to offset future Realized Losses with respect to the Principal Balance Certificates. Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be distributed on the final Distribution Date to the Holders of the Class R Certificates from the Lower-Tier REMIC in respect of the Class LR Interest.

(i) All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Sections 4.01(j), Section 4.01(k) and 9.01, all such distributions with respect to each Class on each Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of the respective Class of record at the close of business on the related Record Date and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided the Certificate Administrator with wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent Distribution Dates), or otherwise by check mailed to such Certificateholder at its address in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Underwriters shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.

(j) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of any amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class of Certificates) will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall, no later than the related P&I Advance Determination

-311-

Date, post on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) a notice in electronic format to the effect that:

(i) the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but, only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein specified; and

(ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after such Distribution Date.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(j) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six (6) months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate, subject to applicable law with respect to escheatment of funds. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust hereunder by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(j).

(k) Distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to the Regular Certificates shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(c) or Section 4.01(d), as applicable, to the Holders of the respective Class otherwise entitled to distributions of interest and principal on such Class on the relevant Distribution Date; provided that all distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to a Class of Certificates which has since been retired shall be to the prior Holders that surrendered the Certificates of such Class upon retirement thereof and shall be made by check mailed to the address of each such prior Holder last shown in the Certificate Register. Notice of any such distribution to a prior Holder shall be made in accordance with Section 13.05 at such last address. The amount of the distribution to each such prior Holder shall be based upon the aggregate Percentage Interest evidenced by the Certificates surrendered thereby. If the check mailed to any such prior Holder is returned uncashed, then the amount thereof shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of such prior Holder, and the Certificate Administrator shall attempt to contact such prior Holder in the manner contemplated by Section 4.01(j) as if such Holder had failed to surrender its Certificates.

Any such account shall be located at a commercial bank in the United States.

may be, based on these characterizations with respect to such Mortgage Loan (or related REO Property), except where expressly noted and, in addition, any payment of principal on or reduction in the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan shall reduce the principal balance of the Loan REMIC Regular Interest. Servicing Fees, Trustee Fees and Operating Advisor Fees with respect to the 500 Delaware Mortgage Loan shall be deemed paid by the Lower-Tier REMIC in determining the Net Mortgage Rate of the Loan REMIC Regular Interest, and all other servicing compensation or unanticipated expenses with respect to such Mortgage Loan payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor shall be deemed payable by the Loan REMIC.
