 ARTICLE 3 

THE TRANSACTIONS 

Section 3.01    Procedures. 

(a)    From time to time during the Revolving Period, but not more frequently than twice per week, with not
less than three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Buyer, Seller may request Buyer to enter into a proposed Transaction by sending Buyer a notice (in electronic or physical format) substantially in the form of
Exhibit A (“Transaction Request”), which Transaction Request shall: (i) describe the Transaction and each proposed Asset and any related underlying Mortgaged Property and other security therefor in
reasonable detail, (ii) transmit, either in electronic or physical format, a complete Underwriting Package for each proposed Asset, (iii) set forth the Representation Exceptions requested, if any, with respect to each proposed Asset, and
(iv) indicate the amount of all then-currently unfunded future funding obligations, and the portion thereof expected to be funded by Buyer under Section 3.10. Seller shall
promptly deliver to Buyer (in electronic or physical format) any supplemental materials requested at any time by Buyer. Buyer shall conduct such review of the Underwriting Package and each such Asset as Buyer determines appropriate. Buyer shall
determine whether or not it is willing to purchase any or all of the proposed Assets, and if so, on what terms and conditions. In connection with such review and determination, Buyer may also consider the pro forma effect that acquiring the
proposed Purchased Asset would have on the concentrations of specific asset categories. It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that Buyer is entering into the Transactions on the basis of all such representations and warranties and on the
completeness and accuracy of the information contained in the applicable Underwriting Package, and any incompleteness or inaccuracies in the related Underwriting Package will only be acceptable to Buyer if disclosed in writing (in electronic or
physical format) to Buyer by Seller in advance of the related Purchase Date, and then only if Buyer opts to purchase the related Purchased Asset from Seller notwithstanding such incompleteness and inaccuracies. In the event of a Representation
Breach with respect to a particular Purchased Asset, Seller shall, within five (5) Business Days from the earlier of (i) notice to Seller from Buyer or Servicer or (ii) Seller’s otherwise having Actual Knowledge of such
Representation Breach, repurchase the related Asset or Assets in accordance with Section 3.05. 

(b)    Buyer shall give Seller notice (in electronic or physical format) of the date when Buyer has
received a complete Transaction Request, together with the Underwriting Package, supplemental materials and any other documentation required pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or otherwise required under any Repurchase Documents.
Buyer shall endeavor to communicate to Seller a preliminary non-binding determination of whether or not it is willing to purchase (i) any single Eligible Asset, and if so, on what terms and conditions,
within five (5) Business Days after such date, and (ii) two (2) or more proposed Eligible Assets within ten (10) Business Days after such date, and if its preliminary determination is favorable, by what date Buyer expects to
communicate to Seller a final non-binding indication of its determination. If Buyer has not communicated its final non-binding indication to Seller by such date, Buyer
shall automatically and without further action be deemed to have determined not to purchase any such Asset. 

  
 -37- 













 (c)    If Buyer communicates to Seller a final non-binding determination that it is willing to purchase any or all of such Assets, Seller shall deliver to Buyer (in electronic or physical format) an executed preliminary Confirmation for such Transaction,
describing each such Asset and its proposed Purchase Date, Market Value, Applicable Percentage, Maximum Applicable Percentage, Maximum Purchase Price, Purchase Price and such other terms and conditions as Buyer may require prior to the Purchase
Date. If Buyer requires changes to the preliminary Confirmation, Seller shall make such changes and re-execute the preliminary Confirmation. If Buyer determines to enter into the Transaction on the terms
described in the preliminary Confirmation, Buyer shall promptly execute and return the same to Seller, which shall thereupon become effective as the Confirmation of the Transaction. Buyer’s approval of the purchase of an Asset on such terms and
conditions as Buyer may require shall be evidenced only by its execution and delivery of the related Confirmation. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not (i) be bound by any preliminary or final
non-binding determination referred to above, (ii) be deemed to have approved the purchase of an Asset by virtue of the approval or entering into by Buyer of a rate lock agreement, Interest Rate Protection
Agreement, total return swap or any other agreement with respect to such Asset, or (iii) be obligated to purchase an Asset notwithstanding a Confirmation executed by the Parties unless and until all applicable conditions precedent in
Article 6 have been satisfied or waived by Buyer. 
 (d)    Each Confirmation,
together with this Agreement, shall be conclusive evidence of the terms of the Transaction covered thereby, and shall be construed to be cumulative to the extent possible, but in no way shall be construed as evidence of Buyer’s agreement
subsequently to purchase additional amounts of, or other, Assets. If terms in a Confirmation are inconsistent with terms in this Agreement with respect to a particular Transaction, the Confirmation shall prevail. Whenever the Applicable Percentage
or any other term of a Transaction (other than the Pricing Rate, Market Value and outstanding Purchase Price) with respect to an Asset is revised or adjusted in accordance with this Agreement, an amended and restated Confirmation reflecting such
revision or adjustment and that is otherwise acceptable to the Parties shall be prepared by Seller and executed by the Parties. 

(e)    The fact that Buyer has conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or complete examination or
any other due diligence review of any Asset shall in no way affect any rights Buyer may have under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise with respect to any representations or warranties or other rights or remedies thereunder or otherwise, including
the right to determine at any time that such Asset is not an Eligible Asset. 
 (f)    No Transaction
shall be entered into if (i) any Margin Deficit subject to a Margin Call, Default, Event of Default, Market Disruption Event, Material Event or Material Adverse Effect has occurred and is continuing or would exist as a result of such
Transaction unless any such Margin Deficit, Default, Event of Default or Material Adverse Effect is cured simultaneously with the consummation of such Transaction, (ii) the Repurchase Date for the Purchased Assets subject to such Transaction
would be later than the Facility Termination Date, (iii) the proposed Purchased Asset does not qualify as an Eligible Asset, (iv) after giving effect to such Transaction, (A) the proforma aggregate outstanding Repurchase Price of all
Transactions (after giving effect to such proposed Transaction) would exceed the Maximum Amount, or (B) any Sub-Limit has been or would be exceeded, (v) the Revolving Period Expiration Date has
occurred, (vi) if Buyer determines not to enter into any such Transaction for any reason or for no 

  
 -38- 













 
reason, or (vii) all Purchased Asset Documents have not been delivered to Custodian (or a Bailee) in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement,
(viii) the Facility Debt Yield Test is either then-currently being breached (unless such breach would be cured in its entirety by the entering into of such Transaction) or would be breached after giving
effect to such Transaction, or (ix) the proposed Purchased Asset does not comply with either the Minimum Purchased Asset Debt Yield Requirement or the Maximum Purchased Asset PPV Requirement. 

(g)    In addition to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.01, solely with
respect to any Wet Mortgage Asset, a copy of the related Transaction Request shall be delivered by Seller to Bailee (in electronic or physical format) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) one (1) Business Day prior to the

accordance with Section 3.01(b) of the Custodial Agreement, determined that all other applicable conditions in this Agreement, including without limitation those set forth in Section 6.02 hereof, have either been
satisfied or waived by Buyer, as applicable, and otherwise has agreed to purchase the related Wet Mortgage Asset, Buyer shall (I) execute and deliver a .pdf copy of the related Confirmation to Seller and Bailee via electronic mail and
(II) wire funds in the amount of the related Purchase Price for the related Wet Mortgage Asset in accordance with the wire transfer instructions that were previously delivered to Buyer by Seller; and

related Servicing Rights. Subject to this Agreement, during the Revolving Period Seller may sell to Buyer, repurchase from Buyer and re-sell Eligible Assets to Buyer, but Seller may not substitute other
Eligible Assets for Purchased Assets. Buyer has the right to designate each Servicer of the Purchased Assets. The Servicing Rights and other servicing provisions under this Agreement are not severable from or to be separated from the Purchased
Assets under this Agreement, and such Servicing Rights and other servicing provisions of this Agreement constitute (a) “related terms” under this Agreement within the meaning of Section 101(47)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code and/or
(b) a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Repurchase Documents. To the extent any additional limited liability company is formed by a Division of Seller (and without prejudice to
Sections 8.01, 8.03 and 9.01 hereof), Seller shall cause each such Division LLC to sell, transfer, convey and assign to Buyer on a servicing released basis and for no additional consideration all of each such
Division LLC’s right, title and interest in and to each Purchased Asset, together with all related Servicing Rights in the same manner and to the same extent as the sale, transfer, conveyance and assignment by Seller on each related Purchase
Date of all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to each Purchased Asset, together with all related Servicing Rights.

 Section 3.03    Maximum Amount. The
aggregate outstanding Purchase Price for all Purchased Assets as of any date of determination shall not exceed the Maximum Amount. If the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price for all Purchased Assets as of any date of determination exceeds the
Maximum Amount, Seller shall immediately pay to Buyer an amount necessary to reduce such aggregate outstanding Purchase Price to an amount equal to or less than the Maximum Amount. 

Section 3.04    Early Repurchase Date; Mandatory Repurchases; Optional Repurchases; Partial
Repurchases. Seller may terminate any Transaction with respect to any or all Purchased Assets and repurchase such Purchased Assets on any date prior to the Repurchase Date (an “Early Repurchase Date”); provided, that
(a) Seller notifies Buyer and any related Affiliated Hedge Counterparty (in electronic or physical format) at least three (3) Business Days before the proposed Early Repurchase Date identifying the Purchased Asset(s) to be repurchased and
the Repurchase Price thereof, (b) Seller delivers to Buyer a certificate from a Responsible Officer of Seller in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer certifying that no Margin Deficit subject to a Margin Call, Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing or would exist as a result of such repurchase, there are no other Liens on the remaining Purchased Assets or Pledged Collateral other than Liens granted pursuant to the Repurchase Documents, and such repurchase would
not cause Seller to violate the Facility Debt Yield Test, (c) if the Early Repurchase Date is not a Remittance Date, Seller pays to Buyer any amount due under Section 12.03 and pays all amounts due to any related
Affiliated Hedge Counterparty under the related Interest Rate Protection Agreement, (d) no Repurchase Obligations are then-currently due and payable from Seller to Buyer, and (e) Seller pays to Buyer any Exit Fee due in accordance with
Section 3.07, if any, and Seller thereafter complies with Section 3.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should any Margin Deficit subject to a Margin Call exist either prior to or after giving
effect to any repurchase under this Section 3.04, Seller shall also pay the amount of each related Margin Deficit that is subject to a Margin Call and is outstanding to Buyer at the same time that Seller pays the related
Repurchase Price to Buyer hereunder. Such early terminations and repurchases shall be limited to two (2) occurrences in any calendar week. 

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in any Repurchase Document, at any time during the existence
of any unsatisfied Margin Deficit that is subject to a Margin Call, or an uncured Default or Event of Default that would not otherwise be fully cured after giving effect to the related repurchase and application of funds in accordance with Article 5
of this Agreement, Seller shall only be permitted to effect the repurchase and release of a Purchased Asset in connection with either (i) a full payoff of all amounts due in respect of such Purchased Asset by the Underlying Obligor, or
(ii) a sale of such Purchased Asset to an unaffiliated third party purchaser purchasing on an arm’s length basis, unless, in each case, Seller pays directly to Buyer an amount equal to either (x) 100% of the net proceeds paid in
connection with the relevant payoff by the Underlying Obligor or any Affiliate thereof or (y) 100% of the net proceeds received by Seller from an unaffiliated third-party purchaser purchasing on arm’s length terms in connection with the
sale of such Purchased Asset, as applicable. The portion of all such net proceeds in excess of the then-current Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Asset shall be applied by Buyer to reduce any other
amounts due and payable to Buyer, as determined in its discretion, under this Agreement. 

  
 -41- 













 In addition to other rights and remedies of Buyer under any Repurchase
Document, Seller shall, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.04 and Section 3.05, within five (5) Business Days from the earlier of (x) notice to Seller from
Buyer or Servicer or (y) Seller’s otherwise having Actual Knowledge thereof, (i) repurchase any Purchased Asset that either (a) no longer qualifies as an Eligible Asset, as determined by Buyer, or (b) for which all documents
required to be delivered to Custodian under the Custodial Agreement have not been so delivered on a timely basis, or (ii) make a partial or complete repurchase of one or more of the Purchased Assets to the extent necessary to cure a breach of a
Sub-Limit during the Revolving Period. 
 The terms and provisions governing partial
repurchases are set forth in Section 4 of the Fee Letter, and are incorporated by reference herein. 

Section 3.05    Repurchase. On the Repurchase Date for each Purchased Asset, Seller shall
transfer to Buyer the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Asset as of the Repurchase Date, and pay all amounts due to any Affiliated Hedge Counterparty under the related Interest Rate Protection Agreement and, so long as no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and no unsatisfied Margin Deficit subject to a Margin Call exists, Buyer shall transfer to Seller such Purchased Asset, whereupon such Transaction with respect to such Purchased Asset shall terminate;
provided, however, that, with respect to any Repurchase Date that occurs on the second Business Day prior to the maturity date (as defined under the related Purchased Asset Documents with respect to such Purchased Asset) for such
Purchased Asset by reason of clause (d) of the definition of “Repurchase Date”, settlement of the payment of the Repurchase Price and such amounts may occur up to the second Business Day after such Repurchase Date; provided,
further, that Buyer shall have no obligation to transfer to Seller, or release any interest in, such Purchased Asset until Buyer’s receipt (including by payment to the Waterfall Account) of payment in full of the Repurchase Price
therefor. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon receipt by Buyer of the Repurchase Price and all other amounts due and owing to Buyer and its Affiliates under this Agreement and each other Repurchase Document
as of such Repurchase Date, Buyer shall be deemed to have simultaneously released its security interest in such Purchased Asset, shall authorize Custodian (in accordance with the terms of the Custodial Agreement) to release to Seller (or its
designee) the Purchased Asset Documents for such Purchased Asset and, to the extent any UCC financing statement filed against Seller specifically identifies such Purchased Asset, Buyer shall deliver an amendment thereto or termination thereof
evidencing the release of such Purchased Asset from Buyer’s security interest therein. Any such transfer or release shall be without recourse to Buyer and without representation or warranty by Buyer except that Buyer shall hereby be deemed to
represent to Seller, to the extent that good title was transferred and assigned by Seller to Buyer hereunder, that Buyer was the owner of such Purchased Asset, free and clear of any other interests or Liens caused by Buyer. Any Income with respect
to such Purchased Asset received by Servicer, Buyer or Deposit Account Bank after payment of the Repurchase Price therefor shall be remitted to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall repurchase all Purchased Assets no later than the
Facility Termination Date by paying to Buyer the outstanding Repurchase Price therefor and all other outstanding Repurchase Obligations.

 Section 3.06    Facility Termination Date
Extension Options. At the request of Seller delivered to Buyer in writing (in electronic or physical format) no earlier than ninety (90) days and no later than thirty (30) days before the then-current Facility Termination Date,
provided that the Extension Conditions set forth below are fully satisfied both on the date of Seller’s written request and as of the then-current Facility Termination Date, Seller shall have two (2) separate, consecutive options to
extend the then-current Facility Termination Date, each such option for a period of one (1) year (each, an “Extension Period”). Any extension of the Facility Termination Date shall be
subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions, as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion (each, an “Extension Condition”): (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) no
unsatisfied Margin Call shall be outstanding, (iii) Seller shall have made a timely written request to extend the then-current Facility Termination Date as provided in this Section 3.06, (iv) Seller shall be in
compliance with the Facility Debt Yield Test, (v) if requested by Buyer, Seller shall have delivered to Buyer a new or updated Beneficial Ownership Certification, as applicable, in relation to Seller to the extent that Seller qualifies as a
“legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, and (vi) Seller has paid to Buyer the Extension Fee on or before the then-current Facility Termination Date. If the Extension
Conditions are not fully satisfied as of the then-current Facility Termination Date, then notwithstanding any prior approval by Buyer to extend the then-current Facility Termination Date, Seller shall have no right to extend the then-current
Facility Termination Date, and any pending request to extend the then-current Facility Termination Date shall be deemed to be denied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.06, in no event shall the
Facility Termination Date be extended for more than two (2) Extension Periods. For the avoidance of doubt, an extension of the Facility Termination Date pursuant to this Section 3.06 (i) shall become effective on
the then-current Facility Termination Date, and (ii) shall not extend the Repurchase Date of any Transaction other than by operation clause (a) of the definition of “Repurchase Date”). 

Section 3.07    Payment of Price Differential and Fees. 

(a)    Notwithstanding that Buyer and Seller intend that each Transaction hereunder constitute a sale to
Buyer of the Purchased Assets subject thereto, Seller shall pay to Buyer the accrued value of the Price Differential for each Purchased Asset on each Remittance Date. In addition thereto, interest shall accrue on all past due amounts otherwise due
from Seller to Buyer under this Agreement at a rate equal to the Pricing Rate plus five percent (5%). Buyer shall give Seller notice of the Price Differential and any fees and other amounts due under the Repurchase Documents on or prior to the
second (2nd) Business Day preceding each Remittance Date; provided, that Buyer’s failure to deliver such notice shall not affect (i) the accrual of such obligations in accordance with this Agreement or (ii) Seller’s
obligation to pay such amounts. If the Price Differential includes any estimated Price Differential, Buyer shall recalculate such Price Differential after the Remittance Date and, if necessary, make adjustments to the Price Differential amount due
on the following Remittance Date. 
 (b)    The terms and conditions related to the payment by Seller to
Buyer of certain fees and expenses are set forth in Section 2 of the Fee Letter. In addition thereto, Seller shall pay to Buyer all fees and other amounts as and when due, as set forth in this Agreement including, without limitation: 

(i)    the Structuring Fee, which shall be fully earned by Buyer on the Closing Date, and
due and payable to Buyer by Seller, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2 of the Fee Letter, which terms and provisions are incorporated herein by reference;

 (ii)    the Non-Utilization Fee which shall be due and payable to Buyer by Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in Section 2 of the Fee Letter, which terms and provisions are incorporated by
reference; 
 (iii)    the Extension Fee, which shall be fully earned on, and due and
payable to Buyer by Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in Section 3.06; and 

(iv)    the Exit Fee, which shall be fully earned on, and due and payable to Buyer by
Seller in accordance with, the terms and provisions set forth in Section 2 of the Fee Letter, which terms and provisions are incorporated by reference. 

Section 3.08    Payment, Transfer and Custody. 

(a)    Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts required to be paid or deposited by Seller,
Sponsor, Pledgor, Guarantor or any other Person under the Repurchase Documents shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day when due, in immediately available Dollars and without
deduction, set-off or counterclaim, and if not received before such time shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. Whenever any payment under the Repurchase Documents shall be stated to be due
on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of such payment. Seller shall, to the extent permitted by Requirements of
Law, pay to Buyer interest in connection with any amounts not paid when due under the Repurchase Documents, which interest shall be calculated at a rate equal to the Default Rate, until all such amounts are received in full by Buyer. Amounts payable
to Buyer and not otherwise required to be deposited into the Servicer Account shall be deposited into an account of Buyer (including the Waterfall Account). Seller shall have no rights in, rights of withdrawal from, or rights to give notices or
instructions regarding Buyer’s account or the Waterfall Account or the Servicer Account. 

(b)    Any Purchased Asset Documents not delivered to Buyer or Custodian on the relevant Purchase Date and
subsequently received or held by or on behalf of Seller are and shall be held in trust by Seller or its agent for the benefit of Buyer as the owner thereof until so delivered to Buyer or Custodian. Seller or its agent shall maintain a copy of such
Purchased Asset Documents and the originals of the Purchased Asset Documents not delivered to Buyer or Custodian. The possession of Purchased Asset Documents by Seller or its agent is in a custodial capacity only at the will of Buyer for the sole
purpose of assisting the related Servicer with its duties under the Servicing Agreement. Each Purchased Asset Document retained or held by or on behalf of Seller or its agent shall be segregated on Seller’s books and records from the other
assets of Seller or its agent, and the books and records of Seller or its agent shall be marked to reflect clearly the sale of the related Purchased Asset to Buyer on a servicing-released basis. Seller or its
agent shall release its custody of the Purchased Asset Documents only in accordance 

  
 -44- 













 
with written instructions from Buyer, unless such release is required as incidental to the servicing of the Purchased Assets by Servicer or is in connection with a repurchase of any Purchased
Asset by Seller, in each case in accordance with the Custodial Agreement. 

Section 3.09    Repurchase Obligations Absolute. All amounts payable by Seller under the
Repurchase Documents shall be paid without notice, demand, counterclaim, set-off, deduction or defense (as to any Person and for any reason whatsoever) and without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution
or reduction (as to any Person and for any reason whatsoever), and the Repurchase Obligations shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected, except as expressly provided herein, by reason of: (a) any damage to, destruction of, taking
of, restriction or prevention of the use of, interference with the use of, title defect in, encumbrance on or eviction from, any Purchased Asset, the Pledged Collateral or related Mortgaged Property, (b) any Insolvency Proceeding relating to
Seller, any Underlying Obligor or any other loan participant under a Senior Interest, or any action taken with respect to any Repurchase Document, Purchased Asset Document by any trustee or receiver of Seller, any Underlying Obligor or any other
loan participant under a Senior Interest, or by any court in any such proceeding, (c) any claim that Seller has or might have against Buyer under any Repurchase Document or otherwise, (d) any default or failure on the part of Buyer to
perform or comply with any Repurchase Document or other agreement with Seller, (e) the invalidity or unenforceability of any Purchased Asset, Repurchase Document or Purchased Asset Document, or (f) any other occurrence whatsoever, whether
or not similar to any of the foregoing, and whether or not Seller has notice or Knowledge of any of the foregoing. The Repurchase Obligations shall be full recourse to Seller and Pledgor, and limited recourse to Guarantor to the extent of, and
subject to the specified full-recourse provisions set forth in, the Guarantee Agreement. This Section 3.09 shall survive the termination of the Repurchase Documents and the payment in full of the Repurchase Obligations.

 Section 3.10    Future Funding Transactions. Buyer’s agreement to enter into any
Future Funding Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, both immediately prior to entering into such Future Funding Transaction and also after giving effect to the consummation thereof: 

(i)    Seller shall give Buyer written notice (in electronic or physical format) of each
Future Funding Transaction, together with a signed, written confirmation in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto prior to the related Future Funding Date (each, a “Future Funding Confirmation”), signed by
a Responsible Officer of Seller. Each Future Funding Confirmation shall identify the related Whole Loan and/or Senior Interest, shall identify Buyer and Seller, shall set forth the requested Future Funding Amount, and shall be executed by both Buyer
and Seller; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be liable to Seller if it inadvertently acts on a Future Funding Confirmation that has not been signed by a Responsible Officer of Seller. Each Future Funding Confirmation, together
with this Agreement, shall be conclusive evidence of the terms of the Future Funding Transaction covered thereby, and shall be construed to be cumulative to the extent possible. If terms in a Future Funding Confirmation are inconsistent with terms
in this Agreement with respect to a particular Future Funding Transaction such Future Funding Confirmation shall prevail. 

  
 -45- 













 (ii)    For each proposed Future Funding
Transaction, no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Future Funding Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer, either in electronic or physical format, a Future Funding Request Package. Buyer shall have the right to conduct an
additional due diligence investigation of the Future Funding Request Package and/or the related Whole Loan and/or Senior Interest as Buyer determines. Buyer shall be entitled to make a determination, in the exercise of Buyer’s sole and absolute
discretion whether, in the case of a Future Funding Transaction, it shall or shall not advance the requested Future Funding Amount. If Buyer determines not to advance a requested Future Funding Amount with respect to any Purchased Asset, Seller
shall promptly satisfy all future funding obligations with respect to each Purchased Asset as and when required pursuant to the related Purchased Asset Documents, together with the terms of this Agreement. Prior to the approval of each proposed
Future Funding Transaction by Buyer, Buyer shall have determined, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, that (A) all of the applicable conditions precedent for a Transaction, as described in Section 6.02, have
been met by Seller, (B) the Facility Debt Yield Test is in compliance both before and after giving effect to the proposed Transaction, (C) the related Purchased Asset is not a Defaulted Asset, (D) the related Purchased Asset satisfies
the Maximum Purchased Asset PPV Requirement and the Minimum Purchased Asset Debt Yield Requirement both before and after giving effect to the proposed Transaction and (E) all related conditions precedent set forth in the related Purchased Asset
Documents have been satisfied. Notwithstanding any other provision herein or otherwise, Buyer shall have no obligation to enter into any Future Funding Transaction (even with respect to any Purchased Asset identified on the applicable Purchase Date
as having future funding obligations). Any determination to enter into a Future Funding Transaction shall be made in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion. 

(iii)    Upon the approval by Buyer of a particular Future Funding Transaction, Buyer shall
deliver to Seller a signed copy of the related Future Funding Confirmation described in clause (i) above, on or before the related Future Funding Date. On the related Future Funding Date, which shall occur no later than three (3) Business
Days after the final approval of the Future Funding Transaction by Buyer (a) if an escrow agreement has been established in connection with such Future Funding Transaction, Buyer shall remit the related Future Funding Amount to the related
escrow account, (b) if the terms of the Purchased Asset Documents provide for a reserve account in connection with future advances, Buyer shall remit the related Future Funding Amount to the applicable reserve account and (c) if Seller has
funded (or caused to be funded) the entirety of the future funding obligation to which such Future Funding Amount relates and provided Buyer with written evidence thereof, Buyer shall remit the related Future Funding Amount to Seller, or otherwise,
Buyer shall remit the related Future Funding Amount directly to the related Underlying Obligor. 

(iv)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Future Funding Transaction be
permitted hereunder at any time after the expiration of the first Extension Period, if any.

 Section 3.11    Additional Advances. The
terms and provisions governing Additional Advances are set forth in Section 4 of the Fee Letter, and are incorporated by reference herein. 

ARTICLE 4 
 MARGIN
MAINTENANCE 
 Section 4.01    Margin Deficit. 

(a)    With respect to any Purchased Asset or group of Purchased Assets, if on any date either of the
following has occurred (I) for any individual Purchased Asset (X) a Credit Event with respect to such Purchased Asset has occurred and (Y) an amount equal to the product of the Applicable Percentage for such Purchased Asset,
multiplied by its Market Value, is less than the outstanding Purchase Price for such Purchased Asset as of such date, or (II) one or more of the Purchased Assets has caused Seller to violate the Facility Debt Yield Test (the amount of any
shortfall under clause (I) or the amount necessary to cure any violation under clause (II), a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer shall have the right from time to time as determined in its sole discretion to make a margin call
on Seller (a “Margin Call”) in an amount equal to the amount of the related Margin Deficit; provided that, (i) prior to the occurrence and continuation of a Default or an Event of Default, Buyer shall only make a Margin
Call if the related Margin Deficit or Margin Deficits exceeds the Material Impairment Threshold, (ii) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Buyer shall not make any Margin Call under clause (I) above
in connection with any Purchased Asset that accrues interest at a floating rate to the extent that the related Margin Deficit resulted from interest rate changes and/or credit spread movements, and (iii) for the avoidance of doubt, but subject
to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), Buyer shall be permitted to make Margin Calls hereunder in connection with multiple assets at the same time. In lieu of the satisfaction by Seller of a Margin Call under
clause (I) above through the payment of cash or in combination with Seller’s payment of cash, Buyer may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, upon a written request of Seller that satisfies all of the
requirements set forth in clauses (w) through (z) below (to be received prior to the date that the related Margin Deficit is due), to reallocate any then-currently available Margin Excess in order to eliminate the related Margin Deficit by
increasing the Purchase Price of a Purchased Asset with the related Margin Excess and decreasing the Purchase Price of the Purchased Asset that is the subject of the related Margin Call. Any such written request for reallocation shall include the
following, with such back-up calculations as Buyer may require: (w) the Purchased Asset(s) with respect to which Margin Excess exists and the amount of such Margin Excess that Seller requests be re-allocated, (x) the Purchased Asset to which Seller is requesting such Margin Excess be applied, the new Purchase Price of such Purchased Asset and the new Purchase Price of the Purchased Asset with the
related Margin Excess, in each case, after giving pro forma effect to such allocation, (y) the amount of the Margin Deficit on the Purchased Asset to which such Margin Excess is to be applied both immediately prior to and immediately after
giving pro forma effect to such allocation and (z) a certification from Seller that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (except as would be cured by such reallocation). Upon Buyer’s independent confirmation,
to be made in Buyer’s sole discretion, that the Margin Excess Requirements have been satisfied and the conclusions and calculations set forth in Seller’s 

  
 -47- 













 
written request comply with the requirements set forth above, Buyer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, reallocate the related Margin Excess to those Purchased Assets for which Margin
Deficits would otherwise exist, as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion, and, immediately thereafter, Seller shall execute and deliver new Confirmations acceptable to Buyer reflecting the new Purchase Price of all affected Purchased Assets.

 (b)    To the extent any Margin Deficit that is subject to a Margin Call under
Section 4.01(a)(I) above is not eliminated by way of a Margin Excess reallocation pursuant to Section 4.01(a), or in the case of any Margin Call under Section 4.01(a)(II)
above, in each case, Seller shall, within three (3) Business Days after notice from Buyer that a Margin Call has occurred (provided that, if such notice is delivered to Seller after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), such three (3) Business
Day period shall commence on the Business Day following Buyer’s delivery thereof), at Seller’s option (i) transfer cash to Buyer, (ii) repurchase Purchased Assets at the Repurchase Price thereof, or (iii) choose any
combination of the foregoing, so that, after giving effect to such transfers, repurchases and payments, the related Margin Deficit is fully cured. 

(c)    In no case shall Buyer’s forbearance from delivering a Margin Call at any time there is a
Margin Deficit be deemed to waive such Margin Deficit or in any way limit, stop or impair Buyer’s right to deliver a Margin Call at any time when the same or any other Margin Deficit exists on the same or any other Purchased Asset. Buyer’s
rights under this Section 4.01 are cumulative and in addition to and not in lieu of any other rights of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents or Requirements of Law. 

(d)    All cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall be
deposited into the Waterfall Account, except as directed by Buyer, and notwithstanding any provision in Section 5.02 to the contrary, shall be applied to reduce the Purchase Price of either (i) in connection with any
Margin Deficit under Section 4.01(a)(I), the Purchased Asset to which such Margin Deficit relates, or (ii) in connection with any Margin Deficit under Section 4.01(a)(II), to the unpaid
Purchase Price(s) of such Purchased Asset(s) as Buyer shall determine in its sole discretion. Immediately after the satisfaction by Seller of each Margin Call hereunder, Seller and Buyer shall execute and deliver the appropriate amended and restated
Confirmations.

 ARTICLE 7 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER 

Seller represents and warrants, on and as of the date of this Agreement, each Purchase Date, and at all times when any
Repurchase Document or Transaction is in full force and effect as follows: 

Section 7.01    Seller. Seller has been duly organized and validly exists in good standing as
a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware. Seller (a) has all requisite power, authority, legal right, licenses and franchises, except where failure to have such license or franchise does not have a Material Adverse
Effect, (b) is duly qualified to do business 

  
 -54- 













 
in all jurisdictions necessary, except where failure to so qualify does not have a Material Adverse Effect, and (c) has been duly authorized by all necessary action, to (w) own, lease
and operate its properties and assets, (x) conduct its business as presently conducted, (y) execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Repurchase Documents to which it is a party, and (z) originate, service, acquire, own,

where Seller keeps all records (within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) relating to the Purchased Assets is at the address of Seller referred to in Annex 1. Seller has not changed its name or location within the
past twelve (12) months. Seller’s organizational identification number is 6807989 and its tax identification number is 61-1879403. Seller is a one hundred percent (100%) direct and wholly-owned Subsidiary of Pledgor. The fiscal year of Seller is the calendar year. Seller has no Indebtedness, Contractual Obligations or Investments other than (a) ordinary trade payables, (b) in
connection with Assets acquired or originated for the Transactions, and (c) under the Repurchase Documents. Seller has no Guarantee Obligations. Seller has no Subsidiaries. 

Section 7.02    Repurchase Documents. Each Repurchase Document to which Seller is a party has
been duly executed and delivered by Seller and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Insolvency Laws and general
principles of equity. The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of each Repurchase Document to which it is a party do not and will not (a) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or
both) a default under, any (i) Governing Document, Indebtedness, Guarantee Obligation or Contractual Obligation applicable to Seller or any of its properties or assets, (ii) Requirements of Law, or (iii) approval, consent, judgment,
decree, order or demand of any Governmental Authority, or (b) result in the creation of any Lien (other than, except with respect to any Purchased Asset, any Liens granted pursuant to a Repurchase Document) on any of the properties or assets of
Seller. All approvals, authorizations, consents, orders, filings, notices or other actions of any Person or Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Seller of the Repurchase Documents to which it is a party and
the sale of and grant of a security interest in each Purchased Asset to Buyer, have been obtained, effected, waived or given and are in full force and effect. The execution, delivery and performance of the Repurchase Documents do not require
compliance by Seller with any “bulk sales” or similar law. There is no material litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller threatened, against Seller, Sponsor, any Intermediate Entity, Pledgor, Guarantor
or any of their respective Affiliates before any Governmental Authority (a) asserting the invalidity of any Repurchase Document, (b) seeking to prevent the consummation of any Transaction, or (c) seeking any determination or ruling
that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 7.03    Solvency. None of Seller, Pledgor, Guarantor, Sponsor or Manager is or has
ever been the subject of an Insolvency Proceeding. Each of Seller, Pledgor, Guarantor, Sponsor and Manager is Solvent and the Transactions do not and will not render Seller, Pledgor, Guarantor, Sponsor or Manager not Solvent. Seller is not entering
into the Repurchase Documents or any Transaction with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor of Seller, Pledgor, Guarantor, Sponsor or Manager. Seller has received or will receive reasonably equivalent value for the Repurchase Documents
and each Transaction. Seller has 

  
 -55- 













 
adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size and character and in light of its contemplated business operations. Seller is generally able to pay,
and as of the date hereof is paying, its debts as they come due. During the preceding five (5) years, none of Seller, Pledgor, Guarantor, Sponsor or Manager has filed or had filed against it any bankruptcy receivership or similar petitions nor
has it made any assignments for the benefit of creditors. 
 Section 7.04    Taxes. Other
than as consented to by Buyer, the Sponsor (i) at all times operates its business in a manner not to prevent it from qualifying for status as a REIT under the Code and (ii) from and after the date that the Sponsor’s election to
qualify as a REIT under the Code is effective, the Sponsor qualifies as, and has elected to be treated as, a REIT and is in compliance with all requirements and conditions imposed under the Code to allow the Sponsor to maintain its status as a REIT.
Seller is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Seller, Pledgor and Guarantor have each timely filed all required federal tax returns and all other material tax returns, domestic and foreign, required to be filed by them and
have (for all prior fiscal years and for the current fiscal year to date) timely paid all federal and other material taxes (including mortgage recording taxes), assessments, fees, and other governmental charges (whether imposed with respect to their
income or any of their properties or assets) which have become due and payable, other than any such taxes, assessments, fees, or other governmental charges that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and
for which appropriate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP. Other than as disclosed to Buyer, there is no material suit or claim relating to any such taxes now pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened by any Governmental
Authority which is not being contested in good faith as provided above. 

Section 7.05    Financial Condition. The audited balance sheet of Guarantor as at the fiscal
year most recently ended for which such audited balance sheet is available, and the related audited statements of income, stockholders equity, retained earnings and of cash flows for the fiscal year then ended, setting forth in each case in
comparative form the figures for the previous year, reported on without a “going concern” or like qualification arising out of the audit conducted by Guarantor’s independent certified public accountants, copies of which have been
delivered to Buyer, are complete and correct and present fairly the financial condition of Guarantor as of such date and the results of its operations and cash flows for the fiscal year then ended. All such financial statements, including related
schedules and notes, were prepared in accordance with GAAP except as disclosed therein. Guarantor has no material contingent liability or liability for taxes or any long term lease or unusual forward or long term commitment, including any
Derivatives Contract, which is not accounted for in the foregoing statements or notes unless the foregoing is not required in accordance with GAAP. Other than as disclosed in a public Form 8-K filing, since
the date of the financial statements and other information delivered to Buyer prior to the Closing Date, neither Seller nor Guarantor has sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of any material part of its property or assets (except pursuant to the
Repurchase Documents) or acquired any property or assets (including Equity Interests of any other Person) that are material in relation to the financial condition of Seller. 

Section 7.06    True and Complete Disclosure. The information, reports, certificates,
documents, financial statements, operating statements, forecasts, books, records, files, exhibits and schedules furnished by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer in connection with the 

  
 -56- 













 
Repurchase Documents and the Transactions, when taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein
or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All written information furnished after the date hereof by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer in connection with the Repurchase Documents and the Transactions will be
true, correct and complete in all material respects, or in the case of projections will be based on reasonable estimates prepared and presented in good faith, in each case, on the date as of which such information is stated or certified. 

Section 7.07    Compliance with Laws. Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager and Guarantor have
complied in all respects with all Requirements of Law, and no Purchased Asset contravenes any Requirements of Laws. None of Seller, Sponsor, Guarantor nor any Subsidiaries or Parents of Seller, Sponsor or Guarantor, and to the knowledge of Seller,
Sponsor or Guarantor, no Affiliate of Seller, Sponsor or Guarantor (i) is in violation of any Sanctions or (ii) is a Sanctioned Target. The proceeds of any Transaction have not been and will not be used, directly or indirectly, to fund any
operations in, finance any investments or activities in or make any payments to a Sanctioned Target or otherwise in violation of Sanctions, Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller (a) is a
“broker” or “dealer” as defined in, or could be subject to a liquidation proceeding under, the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970, or (b) is subject to regulation by any Governmental Authority limiting its ability to
incur the Repurchase Obligations. No properties presently or previously owned or leased by Seller, or to the Knowledge of Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor, or any of their respective predecessors, contain or previously contained any
Materials of Environmental Concern that constitute or constituted a violation of Environmental Laws or reasonably could be expected to give rise to liability of Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor thereunder. Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor,
Manager and Guarantor each have no Knowledge of any violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability of Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor under any Environmental Law.
Materials of Environmental Concern have not been Released, on properties presently or previously owned or leased by Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor, in violation of Environmental Laws or in a manner that reasonably could be expected
to give rise to liability of Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor thereunder. Seller and all Affiliates of Seller are in compliance with all Anti-Corruption Laws. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller has made, offered, promised or
authorized a payment of money or anything else of value (a) in order to assist in obtaining or retaining business for or with, or directing business to, any foreign official, foreign political party, party official or candidate for foreign
political office, (b) to any foreign official, foreign political party, party official or candidate for foreign political office, or (c) with the intent to induce the recipient to misuse his or her official position to direct business
wrongfully to Seller, any Affiliate of Seller or any other Person, in violation of any Anti-Corruption Law. 

Section 7.08    Compliance with ERISA. (a) None of Seller, Sponsor, Pledgor or Guarantor
has any employees as of the date of this Agreement. Neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate maintains, sponsors, participates in or contributes to (or has an obligation to contribute to), or has ever maintained, established, sponsored, participated
in or contributed to (or had any obligation to contribute to), or has any liability in respect of, a Plan or a Multiemployer Plan. 

  
 -57- 













 (b)    Each of Seller, Pledgor and Guarantor either
(i) qualifies as a VCOC or a REOC, (ii) complies with an exception set forth in the Plan Asset Regulations such that the assets of such Person would not be subject to Title I of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, or
(iii) does not hold any “plan assets” within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations that are subject to ERISA. 

(c)    Assuming that no portion of the Purchased Assets are funded by Buyer with “plan assets”
within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations (unless Buyer is relying on an applicable and appropriate prohibited transaction exemption, the conditions of which are satisfied), none of the transactions contemplated by the Repurchase Documents
will constitute a nonexempt prohibited transaction (as such term is defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) that could subject the Buyer to any tax or penalty or prohibited transactions imposed under Section 4975
of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA. 
 Section 7.09    No Default or Material Adverse
Effect. No Default exists on the Closing Date, each Purchase Date, each Future Funding Date, the date of each Additional Advance and on the date of each reallocation of Margin Excess and no Event of Default exists. No default or “event of
default” (however defined) exists under any Indebtedness, Guarantee Obligations or Contractual Obligations of Seller. Seller believes that it is and will be able to pay and perform each agreement, duty, obligation and covenant contained in the
Repurchase Documents and Purchased Asset Documents to which it is a party, and that it is not subject to any agreement, obligation, restriction or Requirements of Law that would unduly burden its ability to do so or could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Seller has no Knowledge of any actual development, event or other fact that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, other than any such development, event or fact with respect to which Seller
has delivered detailed written notice thereof to Buyer. No Internal Control Event has occurred. Seller has delivered to Buyer all underlying servicing agreements (or provided Buyer with access to a service, internet website or other system where
Buyer can successfully access such agreements) with respect to the Purchased Assets, and to Seller’s Knowledge no material default or “event of default” (however defined) exists thereunder. 

No “event of default” (however defined) on the part of Guarantor, Sponsor, Manager or Pledgor exists under any
credit facility, repurchase facility or substantially similar facility that is presently in effect, to which Guarantor, Sponsor, Manager or Pledgor is a party, other than any such “event of default” with respect to which Seller has
delivered written notice thereof to Buyer. 
 Section 7.10    Purchased Assets. Each
Purchased Asset is an Eligible Asset. Each representation and warranty of Seller set forth in the Repurchase Documents (including in Schedule 1 applicable to the Class of such Purchased Asset) and the Purchased Asset
Documents with respect to each Purchased Asset is true and correct, except as otherwise disclosed in writing on the executed copy of the related Confirmation. The review and inquiries made on behalf of Seller in connection with the next preceding
sentence have been made by Persons having the requisite expertise, knowledge and background to verify such representations and warranties. Seller has complied with all requirements of the Custodial Agreement with respect to each Purchased Asset,
including delivery to Custodian of all required Purchased Asset Documents. No Purchased Asset is or has been the subject of any compromise, adjustment, extension, 

  
 -58- 













 
satisfaction, subordination, rescission, setoff, counterclaim, defense, abatement, suspension, deferment, deduction, reduction, termination or modification, whether arising out of transactions
concerning such Purchased Asset or otherwise, by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, any Transferor, any Underlying Obligor, Guarantor or any other Person. The purchase of each proposed Purchased Asset was underwritten in accordance with and
satisfies applicable standards established by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller. None of the Purchased Asset Documents has any marks or notations indicating that it has been sold, assigned, pledged, encumbered or otherwise conveyed to any Person
other than Buyer. If any Purchased Asset Document requires the holder or transferee of the related Purchased Asset to be a qualified transferee, qualified institutional lender or qualified lender (however defined), Seller meets such requirement.
Assuming that Buyer also meets such requirement, the assignment and pledge of such Purchased Asset to Buyer pursuant to the Repurchase Documents do not violate such Purchased Asset Document. Seller and all Affiliates of Seller have sold and
transferred all Servicing Rights with respect to the Purchased Assets to Buyer. At Buyer’s election at any time during the term of this Agreement, and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon at least five
(5) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to Seller, Buyer may, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, complete and record any or all of the Blank Assignment Documents as further evidence of Buyer’s ownership interest in the
related Purchased Assets. 
 Section 7.11    Purchased Assets Acquired from Transferors.
With respect to each Purchased Asset purchased by Seller or an Affiliate of Seller from a Transferor, (a) such Purchased Asset was acquired and transferred pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, (b) such Transferor received reasonably
equivalent value in consideration for the transfer of such Purchased Asset, (c) no such transfer was made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by such Transferor to Seller or an Affiliate of Seller, (d) no such transfer is or may
be voidable or subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code, (e) if Seller acquired the Purchased Asset from any of its Affiliates, Seller has delivered to Buyer an opinion of counsel regarding the true sale of the purchase of such Asset by
Seller and, if such Asset was acquired by an Affiliate of Seller from another Affiliate of Seller, the true sale of the purchase of the Asset by the Affiliate of Seller from the Transferor Affiliate, which opinions shall be in form and substance
satisfactory to Buyer, and (f) if Seller acquired the Purchased Asset from any other Transferor, the representations and warranties made by such Transferor to Seller or such Affiliate in such Purchase Agreement, if any, are hereby incorporated
herein mutatis mutandis and are hereby remade by Seller to Buyer on each date as of which they speak in such Purchase Agreement. If such Purchased Asset was acquired by Seller or such Affiliate of Seller via a Purchase Agreement and
the related Transferor has therein granted a security interest in each such Purchased Asset to either Seller or such Affiliate, then Seller or such Affiliate has filed one or more UCC financing statements against the Transferor to perfect such
security interest, assigned such financing statements in blank and delivered such blank assignments to Buyer or Custodian. 

Section 7.12    Transfer and Security Interest. The Repurchase Documents constitute a valid
and effective transfer to Buyer of all right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under all Purchased Assets (together with all related Servicing Rights), free and clear of any Liens. With respect to the protective security interest granted by
Seller in Section 11.01, upon the delivery of the Confirmations and the Purchased Asset Documents to Custodian, the execution and delivery of the Controlled Account Agreement and the filing of the UCC financing


  
 -59- 













 
statements as provided herein, such security interest shall be a valid first priority perfected security interest to the extent such security interest can be perfected by possession, filing or
control under the UCC. Upon receipt by Custodian of each Purchased Asset Document required to be endorsed in blank by Seller and payment by Buyer of the Purchase Price for the related Purchased Asset, Buyer shall either own such Purchased Asset and
the related Purchased Asset Documents or have a valid first priority perfected security interest in such Purchased Asset Document. The Purchased Assets constitute the following, as defined in the UCC: a general intangible, instrument, investment
property, security, deposit account, financial asset, uncertificated security, securities account, or security entitlement. Seller has not sold, assigned, pledged, granted a security interest in, encumbered or otherwise conveyed any of the Purchased
Assets to any Person other than pursuant to the Repurchase Documents. Seller has not authorized the filing of and has no Knowledge of any UCC financing statements filed against Seller as debtor that include the Purchased Assets, other than any
financing statement that has been terminated or filed pursuant to this Agreement. 

Section 7.13    No Broker. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller has dealt with any
broker, investment banker, agent or other Person, except for Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, who may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with any Transaction. 

Section 7.14    Interest Rate Protection Agreements. On the Purchase Date of any Hedge
Required Asset, (a) Seller has entered into all Interest Rate Protection Agreements required under Section 8.10, (b) each such Interest Rate Protection Agreement is in full force and effect, (c) no
termination event, default or event of default (however defined) exists thereunder, and (d) Seller has effectively assigned or pledged to Buyer all Seller’s rights (but none of its obligations) under such Interest Rate Protection
Agreements, subject to, in the case of a Cleared Swap, (i) the rights, if any, of the related DCO and FCM and (ii) any limitation on assignment or pledge of Seller required by the DCO or FCM.

Seller, Pledgor or Guarantor is required to be registered as, or is controlled by, an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, or
otherwise required to register thereunder. Seller is not relying on an exemption from the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act. 

Section 7.17    Location of Books and Records. The location where Seller keeps its books and
records, including all computer tapes and records relating to the Purchased Assets is its chief executive office. 

Section 7.18    Chief Executive Office; Jurisdiction of Organization. On the Closing Date,
each of Seller’s and Pledgor’s chief executive office, is, and has been, located at 590 Madison Avenue, 34th Floor, New York, New York 10022. On the Closing
Date, (x) Seller’s jurisdiction of organization is Delaware, (y) Pledgor’s jurisdiction of organization is Delaware, (z) Guarantor’s jurisdiction of organization is Delaware. Each of Seller and Pledgor

shall provide Buyer with thirty (30) days advance notice of any change in its principal office or place of business or jurisdiction. None of Seller or Pledgor has a trade name. During the
preceding five (5) years, neither Seller nor Pledgor has been known by or done business under any other name, corporate or fictitious. 

Section 7.19    Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Anti-Corruption Laws. The operations of each of
Seller, Sponsor and Guarantor are, and have been, conducted at all times in compliance with all applicable Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Anti-Corruption Laws. No litigation, regulatory or administrative proceedings of or before any court, tribunal
or agency with respect to any Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Anti-Corruption Laws have been started or (to the best of its knowledge and belief) threatened against each of Seller and Guarantor or to the knowledge of Seller, Sponsor, or Guarantor, any

two (2) Business Days, from the later of (x) receipt of such notice or (y) receipt of any related documentation requested by Buyer, to notify Seller that, in Buyer’s reasonable discretion, it has determined that the withdrawal is
not an Other Permitted Withdrawal. In such event, Seller shall not be permitted to make such Other Permitted Withdrawal. If Buyer does not object to such Other Permitted Withdrawal within such two (2) Business Day period, Seller shall be

Section 10.01(f)), the Repurchase Date for all Purchased Assets shall be deemed automatically and immediately to occur (the date on which such option is exercised or deemed to be exercised, the “Accelerated
Repurchase Date”). If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the foregoing option: 

(a)    All Repurchase Obligations shall become immediately due and payable on and as of the Accelerated
Repurchase Date and Buyer may, upon the delivery of notice thereof to Seller, terminate this Agreement, except provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive any such termination of the Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.


  
 -77- 













 (b)    All Income in the Waterfall Account and the
Servicer Account related to each Purchased Asset other than any Purchased Asset specific escrow accounts, together with all Income paid after the Accelerated Repurchase Date, shall be retained by Buyer and applied in accordance with
Article 5. 
 (c)    Buyer may complete any assignments, allonges,
endorsements, powers or other documents or instruments executed in blank and otherwise obtain physical possession of all Purchased Asset Documents and all other instruments, certificates and documents then held by or on behalf of Custodian under the

either of the following remedies with respect to any or all of the Purchased Assets: (i) sell such Purchased Assets on a servicing-released basis and/or without providing any representations and
warranties on an “as-is where is” basis, in a recognized market and by means of a public or private sale at such price or prices as Buyer accepts, and apply the net proceeds thereof in accordance
with Article 5, or (ii) retain such Purchased Assets and give Seller credit against the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Assets (or if the amount of such credit exceeds the Repurchase Price for such Purchased
Assets, to credit against Repurchase Obligations due and any other amounts (without duplication) then owing to Buyer by any other Person pursuant to any Repurchase Document, in such order and in such amounts as determined by Buyer), in an amount
equal to the Market Value (determined without giving effect to the second proviso in the definition of “Market Value” hereunder with regard to determining Market Value to be zero) of such Purchased Assets on the date of the related Event
of Default. Until such time as Buyer exercises either such remedy with respect to a Purchased Asset, Buyer may hold such Purchased Asset for its own account and retain all Income with respect thereto. 

(e)    The Parties agree that the Purchased Assets are of such a nature that they may decline rapidly in
value, and may not have a ready or liquid market. Accordingly, Buyer shall not be required to sell more than one Purchased Asset on a particular Business Day, to the same purchaser or in the same manner. Buyer may determine whether, when and in what
manner a Purchased Asset shall be sold, it being agreed that both a good faith public and a good faith private sale shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable. Buyer shall not be required to give notice to Seller or any other Person prior to
exercising any remedy in respect of an Event of Default. If no prior notice is given, Buyer shall give notice to Seller of the remedies exercised by Buyer promptly thereafter. 

(f)    Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (i) any amount by which the Repurchase Obligations due to
Buyer exceed the aggregate of the net proceeds and credits referred to in the preceding clause (d), (ii) the amount of all actual out-of-pocket expenses,
including reasonable 

  
 -78- 













 
legal fees and expenses, actually incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default, (iii) any costs and losses payable under
Section 12.03, and (iv) any other actual loss, damage, cost or expense resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default. 

(g)    Buyer shall be entitled to an injunction, an order of specific performance or other equitable
relief to compel Seller to fulfill any of its obligations as set forth in the Repurchase Documents, including this Article 10, if Seller fails or refuses to perform its obligations as set forth herein or therein. 

(h)    Seller hereby appoints Buyer as
attorney-in-fact of Seller for purposes of carrying out the Repurchase Documents, including executing, endorsing and recording any instruments or documents and taking
any other actions that Buyer deems necessary or advisable to accomplish such purposes, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. 

(i)    Buyer may, without prior notice to Seller, exercise any or all of its set-off rights including those set forth in Section 18.16 and pursuant to any other Repurchase Document. This Section 10.02(i) shall be without prejudice and in
addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, Lien or other rights to which Buyer is at any time otherwise entitled. 

(j)    All rights and remedies of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents, including those set forth in
Section 18.16, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that Buyer may have and may be exercised at any time when an Event of Default exists. Such rights and remedies may be enforced without prior
judicial process or hearing. Seller agrees that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s-length.
Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process or otherwise arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Purchased Assets, or any other
election of remedies. 
 ARTICLE 11 

SECURITY INTEREST 

Section 11.01    Grant. Buyer and Seller intend that the Transactions be sales to Buyer of the
Purchased Assets and not loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Assets. However, to preserve and protect Buyer’s rights with respect to the Purchased Assets and under the Repurchase Documents if any Governmental Authority
recharacterizes any Transaction with respect to a Purchased Asset as other than a sale, and as security for Seller’s performance of the Repurchase Obligations, Seller hereby grants to Buyer a present Lien on and security interest in all of the
right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under (i) the Purchased Assets (which for this purpose shall be deemed to include the items described in clause (B) of the proviso in the definition thereof), and (ii) each
Interest Rate Protection Agreement with each Hedge Counterparty relating to each Purchased Asset, and the transfer of the Purchased Assets to Buyer shall be deemed to constitute and confirm such grant, to secure the payment and performance of the
Repurchase Obligations (including the obligation of Seller to pay the Repurchase Price, or if the related Transaction is recharacterized as a loan, to repay such loan for the Repurchase Price). 

  
 -79- 













 Section 11.02    Effect of Grant. If any
circumstance described in Section 11.01 occurs, (a) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement as defined in the UCC, (b) Buyer shall have all of the rights and remedies provided to a secured
party by Requirements of Law (including the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and the right to set off any mutual debt and claim) and under any other agreement between Buyer and Seller or between any Affiliated Hedge Counterparty
and Seller, (c) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Assets against all of the Repurchase Obligations, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to
recover any deficiency, (d) the possession by Buyer or any of its agents, including Custodian, of the Purchased Asset Documents, the Purchased Assets and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents,
securities or chattel paper shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party for purposes of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law, and (e) notifications to Persons (other than Buyer) holding such
property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons (other than Buyer) holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, securities intermediaries, bailees or agents (as
applicable) of the secured party for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law. The security interest of Buyer granted herein shall be, and Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer and to all other
Affiliated Hedge Counterparties that it is, a first priority perfected security interest. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) each Purchased Asset and each Interest Rate Protection Agreement relating to a Purchased Asset secures the Repurchase
Obligations of Seller with respect to all other Transactions and all other Purchased Assets, including any Purchased Assets that are junior in priority to the Purchased Asset in question, and (ii) if an Event of Default exists, no Purchased
Asset or Interest Rate Protection Agreement relating to a Purchased Asset will be released from Buyer’s Lien or transferred to Seller until the Repurchase Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repurchase
Obligations shall be full recourse to Seller. 
 Section 11.03    Seller to Remain Liable.
Buyer and Seller agree that the grant of a security interest under this Article 11 shall not constitute or result in the creation or assumption by Buyer of any Retained Interest or other obligation of Seller or any other
Person in connection with any Purchased Asset, or any Interest Rate Protection Agreement whether or not Buyer exercises any right with respect thereto. Seller shall remain liable under the Purchased Assets, each Interest Rate Protection Agreement
and the Purchased Asset Documents to perform all of Seller’s duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if the Repurchase Documents had not been executed. 

Section 11.04    Waiver of Certain Laws. Seller agrees, to the extent permitted by
Requirements of Law, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Purchased
Assets may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Purchased Assets or Interest Rate Protection Agreement relating to a Purchased Asset or any part
thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and Seller, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may
be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Purchased 

  
 -80- 













 
Assets or Interest Rate Protection Agreement relating to a Purchased Asset marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that Buyer or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests
granted in this Agreement may sell the Purchased Assets and each Interest Rate Protection Agreement relating to a Purchased Asset as an entirety or in such parcels as Buyer or such court may determine. 

ARTICLE 12 
 INCREASED
COSTS; CAPITAL ADEQUACY 
 Section 12.01    Market Disruption. If prior to any Pricing
Period, Buyer determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Pricing Period, Buyer shall give prompt notice thereof to Seller, whereupon the
Pricing Rate for such Pricing Period, and for all subsequent Pricing Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be the Alternative Rate. In exercising its rights and remedies under this Section 12.01,
Buyer shall treat Seller in a manner that is substantially similar to the manner it treats other similarly situated sellers in facilities with substantially similar assets. 

Section 12.02    Illegality. If the adoption of or any change in any Requirements of Law or in
the interpretation or application thereof after the date hereof shall make it unlawful for Buyer to effect or continue Transactions as contemplated by the Repurchase Documents, (a) any commitment of Buyer hereunder to enter into new
Transactions shall be terminated and the Facility Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred, (b) the Pricing Rate shall be converted automatically to the Alternative Rate on the last day of the then current Pricing Period or within such
earlier period as may be required by Requirements of Law, and (c) if required by such adoption or change, the Facility Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred. In exercising its rights and remedies under this
Section 12.02, Buyer shall treat Seller in a manner that is substantially similar to the manner it treats other similarly situated sellers in facilities with substantially similar assets. 

Section 12.03    Breakfunding. In the event of (a) the failure by Seller to terminate any
Transaction after Seller has given a notice of termination pursuant to Section 3.04, (b) any payment to Buyer on account of the outstanding Repurchase Price, including a payment made pursuant to
Section 3.04 but excluding a payment made pursuant to Section 5.02, on any day other than a Remittance Date (based on the assumption that Buyer funded its commitment with respect to the Transaction
in the London Interbank Eurodollar market and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods that Buyer deems appropriate and practical), (c) any failure by Seller to sell Eligible Assets to Buyer after Seller has notified Buyer of a
proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed to purchase such Eligible Assets in accordance with this Agreement, or (d) any conversion of the Pricing Rate to the Alternative Rate because LIBOR is not available for any reason on a day that is not
the last day of the then-current Pricing Period, Seller shall compensate Buyer for the cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of Buyer setting forth any amount or amounts that Buyer is
entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 12.03 shall be delivered to Seller and shall be conclusive to the extent calculated in good faith and absent manifest error. Seller shall pay Buyer the amount shown as due on any
such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

 Section 12.04    Increased Costs. If the
adoption of, or any change in, any Requirements of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank
or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer made after the date of this Agreement, shall: (a) subject Buyer to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through
(d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” or (iii) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable
thereto, (b) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit
by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer, or (c) impose on Buyer (other than Taxes) any other condition; and the result of any of the preceding clauses (a), (b) and (c) is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an
amount that Buyer deems to be material, of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions, or to reduce any amount receivable under the Repurchase Documents in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon not less than thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice to Seller, Seller shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as reasonably necessary to fully compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. In determining any additional
amounts due under this Section 12.04, Buyer shall treat Seller in a manner that is substantially similar to the manner it treats other similarly situated sellers in facilities with substantially similar assets. 

Section 12.05    Capital Adequacy. If Buyer determines that any change in any Requirements of
Law or internal policy regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement or its obligations under the Transactions hereunder to a level below that
which Buyer could have achieved but for such change in any Requirements of Law or internal policy (taking into consideration Buyer’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Seller will promptly upon demand pay to
Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Buyer for any such reduction suffered. In determining any additional amounts due under this Section 12.05, Buyer shall treat Seller in a manner that is
substantially similar to the manner it treats other similarly situated sellers in facilities with substantially similar assets. 

Section 12.06    Taxes. 

(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Seller under any Repurchase Document
shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of Seller) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment,
then Seller shall make (or cause to be made) such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay (or cause to be timely paid) the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such
Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Seller shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 12.06) Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made in respect of such Indemnified Taxes. 

  
 -82- 













 (b)    Seller shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c)    Seller shall indemnify
Buyer, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section 12.06) payable or paid by Buyer or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Buyer, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Seller by Buyer shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Seller to a Governmental Authority pursuant to
this Section 12.06, Seller shall deliver to Buyer the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to Buyer. 
 (e)    (i) If Buyer is entitled to an exemption from
or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Repurchase Document, Buyer shall deliver to Seller, at the time or times reasonably requested by Seller, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested
by Seller as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Buyer, if reasonably requested by Seller, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by Seller as will enable Seller to determine whether or not Buyer is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution
and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 12.06(e)(ii)(A), Section 12.06(e)(ii)(B) and Section 12.06(e)(ii)(D) below) shall
not be required if in Buyer’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Buyer to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Buyer. 

(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

(A)    if Buyer is a U.S. Person, it shall deliver to Seller on or prior to the date on
which Buyer becomes a Party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Buyer is exempt from U.S. federal
backup withholding tax; 

  
 -83- 













 (B)    if Buyer is a Foreign Buyer, it
shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Seller) on or prior to the date on which Buyer becomes a Party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the
reasonable request of Seller), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (I)    in
the case of a Foreign Buyer claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Repurchase Document, executed copies of IRS Form
W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax
pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Repurchase Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income”
article of such tax treaty; 
 (II)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; 
 (III)    in the case of a Foreign Buyer
claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Buyer is not a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code,
a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable); or 

(IV)    to the extent a Foreign Buyer is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS
Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate or IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the
Foreign Buyer is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Buyer are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Buyer may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and
indirect partner; 
 (C)    if Buyer is a Foreign Buyer, it shall, to the extent it is
legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Seller) on or prior to the date on which Buyer becomes a Party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of
Seller), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by
applicable law to permit Seller to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D)    if a payment made to Buyer under any Repurchase Document would be subject to U.S.
federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Buyer were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Buyer shall deliver to Seller at
the time or times prescribed by law 

  
 -84- 













 
and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional
documentation reasonably requested by Seller as may be necessary for Seller to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that Buyer has complied with Buyer’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and
withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include all amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

Buyer agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall
update such form or certification or promptly notify Seller in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(f)    If any Party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 12.06 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 12.06), it shall pay to the
indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 12.06 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 12.06(f) (plus any penalties, interest or
other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 12.06(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 12.06(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified
party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise
imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 12.06(f) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns
(or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

(g)    For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 12.06, the term
“applicable law” includes FATCA. 
 Section 12.07    Payment and Survival of
Obligations. Buyer may at any time send Seller a notice showing the calculation of any amounts payable pursuant to this Article 12, and Seller shall pay such amounts to Buyer within ten (10) Business Days after
Seller receives such notice. Each Party’s obligations under this Article 12 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of the Buyer, the termination of the Transactions and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Repurchase Document.

Purchased Asset, (ix) any claim by brokers, finders or similar Persons claiming to be entitled to a commission in connection with any lease or other transaction involving any Repurchase Document, Purchased Asset or Mortgaged Property,

results from anything whatsoever other than any Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non-appealable
judgment. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by an Indemnified Person in connection with any Purchased Asset for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Purchased Asset, Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold such
Indemnified Person harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the account debtor or

payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Person on the one hand and Seller on the other hand, the
relative fault of such Indemnified Person, and any other relevant equitable considerations. 
 (c)    An
Indemnified Person may at any time send Seller a notice showing the calculation of Indemnified Amounts, and Seller shall pay such Indemnified Amounts to such Indemnified Person within ten (10) Business Days after Seller receives such notice.

 Section 14.03    Qualified Financial
Contract. The Parties intend that if a Party is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a

Section 1813(c)(2) of Title 12 of the United States Code, funds held by or on behalf of the financial institution pursuant to any Transaction are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the

will exist as a result of the Transactions or entering into and performing the Repurchase Documents. 
 ARTICLE 17 

SERVICING 

This Article 17 shall apply to all Purchased Assets. 

Section 17.01    Servicing Rights. Buyer is the owner of all Servicing Rights. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right to hire or otherwise engage any Person to service or sub-service all or part of the Purchased Assets, provided, however, that
so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Seller may designate one or more Servicers to be selected by Buyer, so long as each such Servicer is 

  
 -90- 













 
reasonably acceptable to Buyer, and each such Person shall have only such servicing obligations with respect to such Purchased Assets as are approved by Buyer. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, Buyer agrees with Seller as follows with respect to the servicing of the Purchased Assets: 

(a)    Each Servicer shall service the Purchased Assets on behalf of Buyer. Each Servicing Agreement shall
contain provisions which are consistent with this Article 17 and must otherwise be in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer, it being understood that (i) in all cases where an Affiliate of Seller is the Servicer,
the related Servicing Agreement shall be in the form approved by Buyer, and (ii) in all cases where Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is the Servicer, the related Servicing Agreement shall be in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit I. 
 (b)    Unless they have previously done so, contemporaneously
with the execution of this Agreement on the Closing Date, Buyer will enter into, and cause each Servicer to enter into, a Servicing Agreement. Each Servicing Agreement, where the Servicer is not Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer shall automatically
terminate on the 30th day following its execution and at the end of each thirty (30) day period thereafter unless, in each case, Buyer shall agree, by prior written notice to the related Servicer to be delivered on or before the Remittance Date
immediately preceding each such scheduled termination date, to extend the termination date an additional thirty (30) days. Neither Seller nor the related Servicer may assign its rights or obligations under the related Servicing Agreement
without the prior written consent of Buyer. 
 (c)    Notwithstanding that Buyer owns all Servicing
Rights, subject to Sections 17.01(b) and 17.01(e), Buyer hereby grants Seller, for so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the right to direct each Servicer under the terms of, and in
accordance with, each applicable Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, unless such direction results in, or relates to a request for, any matter that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Modification. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Seller shall not direct any Servicer to (i) make any Material Modification without the prior written consent of Buyer or (ii) take any action which would result in a violation of the obligations of any Person under the related Servicing
Agreement, this Agreement or any other Repurchase Document, or which would otherwise be inconsistent with the rights of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents. Buyer, as owner of the Purchased Assets, shall own all related servicing and voting rights
and, as owner, shall act as servicer with respect to the Purchased Assets, subject to an interim revocable option from Buyer in favor of Seller, which is hereby granted, to direct each related Servicer, so long as no monetary or material non-monetary Default or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, however, that Seller cannot give any direction or take any action that could materially adversely affect the value
or collectability of any amounts due with respect to the Purchased Assets without the consent of Buyer. Such revocable option is not evidence of any ownership or other interest or right of Seller in any Purchased Asset. 

(d)    The servicing fee payable to each Servicer shall be payable as a servicing fee in accordance with
this Agreement and each Servicing Agreement, including without limitation pursuant to priority sixth of Section 5.02 or priority third of Section 5.03, as applicable, but all such
servicing and any applicable sub-servicing fees shall be the sole responsibility of Seller. 

  
 -91- 













 (e)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default under this Agreement, in addition to all of the other rights and remedies of Buyer and each related Servicer under each Servicing Agreement, this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents (and in addition to the provisions of
each Servicing Agreement providing for termination of each such Servicing Agreement pursuant to its terms), (i) for the avoidance of doubt, the right, if any, of any person other than Buyer or its Affiliates to direct the servicing of the
Purchased Assets shall immediately and automatically cease to exist, and (ii) either Buyer or each Servicer may at any time terminate the related Servicing Agreement immediately upon the delivery of a written termination notice from either

 -94- 













 
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 18.05    Single Agreement. Seller agrees that (a) each Transaction is in
consideration of and in reliance on the fact that all Transactions constitute a single business and contractual relationship, and that each Transaction has been entered into in consideration of the other Transactions, (b) a default by it in the
payment or performance of any its obligations under a Transaction shall constitute a default by it with respect to all Transactions, (c) Buyer may set off claims and apply properties and assets held by or on behalf of Buyer with respect to any
Transaction against the Repurchase Obligations owing to Buyer with respect to other Transactions, and (d) payments, deliveries and other transfers made by or on behalf of Seller with respect to any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made

No other Person shall be entitled to any benefit, right, power, remedy or claim under the Repurchase Documents. 

Section 18.07    Assignments and Participations. 

(a)    None of Guarantor, Pledgor or Seller shall sell, assign or transfer any of their respective rights

(b)    Buyer may at any time, without the consent of Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor, and
at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, sell participations to any Eligible Assignee (other than a natural person or Seller, Sponsor, Pledgor, any Intermediate Entity, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates) (a
“Participant”) in all or any portion of Buyer’s rights and/or obligations under the Repurchase Documents; provided that (x) if a monetary or material non-monetary Default or
any an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer may sell participations to any Person at any time without consent, notice or restriction of any kind, other than the requirements set forth in clause (iv) below, and (y) so long
as no monetary or material non-monetary Default or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) Buyer’s obligations under the Repurchase Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) Buyer
shall remain solely responsible to Seller for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under the Repurchase Documents,
(iv) each Participant agrees to be bound by the confidentiality 

  
 -95- 













 
provisions set forth in Section 18.09, and (v) provided that, so long as no Event of Default exists, Buyer shall retain ultimate decision-making authority
under the Repurchase Documents. So long as no monetary or material non-monetary Default or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Participant shall have any right to approve any amendment,
waiver or consent with respect to any Repurchase Document, except to the extent that the Repurchase Price or Price Differential of any Purchased Asset would be reduced or the Repurchase Date of any Purchased Asset would be postponed. Each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article 12 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 12.06(e) (it being understood that the
documentation required under Section 12.06(e) shall be delivered to the participating Buyer)) and Article 13 to the same extent as if it had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
Section 18.07(c), provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 12.04 or Section 12.06 than its participating
Buyer would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from the adoption of or any change in any Requirements of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental
Authority or compliance by Buyer or such Participant with a request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from a central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer or such Participant, in each case made or
issued after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, each Participant shall also be entitled to the benefits of Sections 10.02(i) and 18.16 to the
same extent as if it had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 18.07(c). 

(c)    Buyer may at any time, without the consent of Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor but
upon notice to Seller, and at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, sell and assign all or any portion of all of the rights and obligations of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents to any Eligible Assignee proposed by Buyer; provided that if a
monetary or material non-monetary Default or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer may enter into any such sale and assignments with any Person at any time without consent, notice or
restriction of any kind. Each such assignment shall be made pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit F (an “Assignment and Acceptance”). From and after the effective
date of such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) each such assignee shall be a Party and, to the extent provided therein, have the rights and obligations of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents with respect to the percentage and amount of the
Repurchase Price allocated to it, (ii) Buyer shall, to the extent provided therein, be released from such obligations (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of Buyer’s rights and obligations
under the Repurchase Documents, Buyer shall cease to be a Party), (iii) the obligations of Buyer shall be deemed to be so reduced, and (iv) Buyer will give prompt written notice thereof (including identification of the related assignee and
the amount of Repurchase Price allocated to it) to each Party (but Buyer shall not have any liability for any failure to timely provide such notice). Any sale or assignment by Buyer of rights or obligations under the Repurchase Documents that does
not comply with this Section 18.07(c) shall be treated for purposes of the Repurchase Documents as a sale by such Buyer of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with
Section 18.07(b). 
 (d)    Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in connection
with any such sale and assignment of participations, syndications or assignments and shall enter into such restatements of, and amendments, supplements and other modifications to, the Repurchase Documents to give


  
 -96- 













 
effect to any such sale or assignment; provided, that none of the foregoing shall change any economic or other material term of the Repurchase Documents in a manner adverse to Seller
without the consent of Seller and shall be at no cost to Seller. 
 (e)    Buyer, at Buyer’s sole
cost and expense, shall have the right to partially or completely syndicate any or all of its rights under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents to any Eligible Assignee so long as, prior to the occurrence and during the continuance of a
monetary or material non-monetary Default or any Event of Default, Buyer shall remain solely responsible to Seller for the performance by Buyer of its obligations under the Repurchase Documents. 

(f)    Buyer, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary
agent of Seller, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the assignees that become Parties hereto and, with respect to each such assignees, the aggregate assigned
Purchase Price and applicable Price Differential (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Parties shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the
terms hereof as a Buyer for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Parties at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(g)    If Buyer sells a participation of its rights hereunder, it shall, acting solely for this purpose as
a non-fiduciary agent of Seller, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and, with respect to each such Participant, the aggregate participated Purchase Price and
applicable Price Differential, and any other interest in any obligations under the Repurchase Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Party shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the
Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any obligations under any Repurchase Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to
establish that such obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error,
and the participating Party shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the applicable participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 

Section 18.08    Ownership and Hypothecation of Purchased Assets. Title to all Purchased Assets
shall pass to and vest in Buyer on the applicable Purchase Dates and, subject to the terms of the Repurchase Documents, Buyer or its designee shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Assets and be entitled to exercise all rights,
privileges and options relating to the Purchased Assets as the owner thereof, including rights of subscription, conversion, exchange, substitution, voting, consent and approval, and to direct any servicer or trustee. Buyer or its designee may, at
any time, without the consent of Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, Manager or Guarantor, engage in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Assets or otherwise sell, pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecate, or rehypothecate the Purchased Assets to any
Eligible Assignee, all on terms that Buyer may determine; provided, that (i) if a monetary or material non-monetary Default or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer may engage in repurchase transactions with the Purchased
Assets or otherwise sell, pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecate, or rehypothecate the Purchased Assets to any Person at any time without 

  
 -97- 













 
consent, notice or restriction of any kind and (ii) no such transaction shall affect the obligations of Buyer to transfer the Purchased Assets to Seller on the applicable Repurchase Dates
free and clear of any pledge, Lien, security interest, encumbrance, charge or other adverse claim. In the event Buyer engages in a repurchase transaction with any of the Purchased Assets or otherwise pledges or hypothecates any of the Purchased
Assets, Buyer shall have the right to assign to Buyer’s counterparty any of the applicable representations or warranties herein and the remedies for breach thereof, as they relate to the Purchased Assets that are subject to such repurchase
transaction. 
 Section 18.09    Confidentiality. All information regarding the terms set
forth in any of the Repurchase Documents or the Transactions, including any information given by Seller to Buyer in connection with a Transaction, shall be kept confidential and shall not be disclosed by either Party to any Person except (a) to
the Affiliates of such Party or its or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys, accountants and other representatives who are informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep it
confidential, and who need and will use such information exclusively in connection with administering this Agreement and the Transactions hereunder, (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, stock exchange, government department
or agency, or required by Requirements of Law, in which case the disclosing Party agrees, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, to inform the other Party promptly thereof, (c) to the extent required to be included in the financial
statements of either Party or an Affiliate thereof, (d) to the extent required to exercise any rights or remedies under the Repurchase Documents, Purchased Assets or Mortgaged Properties, (e) to the extent required to consummate and
administer a Transaction, (f) to any actual or prospective Participant or Eligible Assignee which agrees to comply with this Section 18.09, and (g) to the extent required in connection with any litigation between
the parties in connection with any Repurchase Document or any Transaction; provided, that, except with respect to the disclosures by Buyer under clause (g) of this Section 18.09, no such disclosure made with
respect to any Repurchase Document shall include a copy of such Repurchase Document to the extent that a summary would suffice, but if it is necessary for a copy of any Repurchase Document to be disclosed, all pricing and other economic terms set
forth therein shall be redacted before disclosure. 
 Section 18.10    No Implied Waivers;
Amendments. No failure on the part of Buyer to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right or remedy under the Repurchase Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy thereunder
preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies in the Repurchase Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. Application of the Default Rate after an Event
of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or Buyer’s rights and remedies with respect thereto, or a consent to any extension of time for the payment or performance of any obligation with respect to which the
Default Rate is applied. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Repurchase Documents, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Repurchase Documents without the
signed agreement of Buyer. Any waiver or consent under the Repurchase Documents shall be effective only if it is in writing and only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 

  
 -98- 













 Section 18.11    Notices and Other
Communications. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices, consents, approvals, requests and other communications required or permitted to be given to a Party hereunder shall be in writing and sent prepaid by hand delivery, by
certified or registered mail, by expedited commercial or postal delivery service, or by email if also sent by one of the foregoing, to the address for such Party specified in Annex 1 or such other address as such Party
shall specify from time to time in a notice to the other Party. Any of the foregoing communications shall be effective when delivered, if such delivery occurs on a Business Day; otherwise, each such communication shall be effective on the first
Business Day following the date of such delivery. A Party receiving a notice that does not comply with the technical requirements of this Section 18.11 may elect to waive any deficiencies and treat the notice as having been
properly given. 
 Section 18.12    Counterparts; Electronic Transmission. This Agreement
and any other Repurchase Document may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The Parties agree
that this Agreement, any documents to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, any other Repurchase Document and any notices hereunder may be transmitted between them by email. The Parties intend that faxed signatures and electronically imaged
signatures such as .pdf files shall constitute original signatures and are binding on all parties. 

Section 18.13    No Personal Liability. No administrator, incorporator, Affiliate, owner,
member, partner, stockholder, officer, director, employee, agent or attorney of Buyer, any Indemnified Person, Seller, Pledgor, Sponsor, each Intermediate Entity, Manager or Guarantor, as such, shall be subject to any recourse or personal liability
under or with respect to any obligation of Buyer, Seller, Pledgor or Guarantor under the Repurchase Documents, whether by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being
expressly agreed that the obligations of Buyer, Seller, Pledgor or Guarantor under the Repurchase Documents are solely their respective corporate, limited liability company or partnership obligations, as applicable, and that any such recourse or
personal liability is hereby expressly waived. This Section 18.13 shall survive the termination of the Repurchase Documents and the repayment in full of the Repurchase Obligations, and each beneficiary of this
Section 18.13 shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 18.13 with rights to enforce this Section. 

Section 18.14    Protection of Buyer’s Interests in the Purchased Assets; Further
Assurances. 
 (a)    Seller shall take such action as necessary to cause the Repurchase Documents
and/or all financing statements and continuation statements and any other necessary documents covering the right, title and interest of Buyer to the Purchased Assets to be promptly recorded, registered and filed, and at all times to be kept
recorded, registered and filed, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve and protect such right, title and interest. Seller shall deliver to Buyer file–stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any
document recorded, registered or filed as provided above, as soon as available following such recording, registration or filing. Seller shall execute any and all documents reasonably required to fulfill the intent of this
Section 18.14. 

  
 -99- 













 (b)    Seller will promptly at its expense execute and
deliver such instruments and documents and take such other actions as Buyer may reasonably request from time to time in order to perfect, protect, evidence, exercise and enforce Buyer’s rights and remedies under and with respect to the
Repurchase Documents, the Transactions and the Purchased Assets. Seller, Pledgor and Guarantor shall, promptly upon Buyer’s request, deliver documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer which Buyer deems necessary or desirable to
evidence compliance with all applicable “know your customer” due diligence checks, including, but not limited to, any information required to be obtained by Buyer pursuant to the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. 

(c)    If Seller fails to perform any of its Repurchase Obligations, then Buyer may (but shall not be
required to) perform or cause to be performed such Repurchase Obligation, and the costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection therewith shall be payable by Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller authorizes Buyer, at
the option of Buyer and the expense of Seller, at any time and from time to time, to take all actions and pay all amounts that Buyer deems necessary or appropriate to protect, enforce, preserve, insure, service, administer, manage, perform,
maintain, safeguard, collect or realize on the Purchased Assets and Buyer’s Liens and interests therein or thereon and to give effect to the intent of the Repurchase Documents. No Default or Event of Default shall be cured by the payment or
performance of any Repurchase Obligation by Buyer on behalf of Seller. Buyer may make any such payment in accordance with any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged without
inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax Lien, title or claim except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by Seller in appropriate
proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP. 

(d)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller will no earlier than six (6) months
or later than three (3) months before the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date of filing of each UCC financing statement filed in connection with any Repurchase Document or any Transaction, if this Agreement is then in effect (i) deliver
and file or cause to be filed an appropriate continuation statement with respect to such financing statement (provided that Buyer may elect to file such continuation statement), and (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer an
opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, confirming and updating the security interest opinion delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) with respect to perfection and otherwise to the effect
that the security interests hereunder continue to be enforceable and perfected security interests, which opinion may contain usual and customary assumptions, limitations and exceptions. 

(e)    Except as provided in the Repurchase Documents, the sole duty of Buyer, Custodian or any other
designee or agent of Buyer with respect to the Purchased Assets shall be to use reasonable care in the custody, use, operation and preservation of the Purchased Assets in its possession or control. Buyer shall incur no liability to Seller or any
other Person for any act of Governmental Authority, act of God or other destruction in whole or in part or negligence or wrongful act of custodians or agents selected by Buyer with reasonable care, or Buyer’s failure to provide adequate
protection or insurance for the Purchased Assets. Buyer shall have no obligation to take any action to preserve any rights of Seller in any Purchased Asset against prior parties, and Seller hereby agrees to take such action. Buyer shall have no
obligation to realize 

  
 -100- 













 
upon any Purchased Asset except through proper application of any distributions with respect to the Purchased Assets made directly to Buyer or its agent(s). So long as Buyer and Custodian shall
act in good faith in their handling of the Purchased Assets, Seller waives or is deemed to have waived the defense of impairment of the Purchased Assets by Buyer and Custodian. 

Section 18.15    Default Rate. To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, Seller shall
pay interest at the Default Rate on the amount of all Repurchase Obligations not paid when due under the Repurchase Documents until such Repurchase Obligations are paid or satisfied in full. 

Section 18.16    Set-off. In addition to any rights
now or hereafter granted under the Repurchase Documents, Requirements of Law or otherwise, Seller hereby grants to Buyer and each Indemnified Person, to secure repayment of the Repurchase Obligations, a right of
set-off upon any and all of the following: monies, securities, collateral or other property of Seller and any proceeds from the foregoing, now or hereafter held or received by Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or
any Indemnified Person, for the account of Seller, whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge, transmission, collection or otherwise, and also upon any and all deposits (general, specified, special, time, demand, provisional or final) and credits,
claims or Indebtedness of Seller at any time existing, and any obligation owed by Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer to Seller and to set–off against any Repurchase Obligations or Indebtedness owed by Seller or Pledgor and any Indebtedness owed by
Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person to Seller, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, whether or not arising under the Repurchase Documents and irrespective of the currency, place
of payment or booking office of the amount or obligation and in each case at any time held or owing by Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person to or for the credit of Seller without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any
deficiency. Each of Buyer, each Affiliate of Buyer and each Indemnified Person is hereby authorized upon any amount becoming due and payable by Seller to Buyer or Pledgor to Buyer or any Indemnified Person under the Repurchase Documents, the
Repurchase Obligations or otherwise or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, without notice to Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller to the extent permitted by any Requirements of Law, to set–off, appropriate, apply and
enforce such right of set–off against any and all items hereinabove referred to against any amounts owing to Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person by Seller or Pledgor under the Repurchase Documents and the Repurchase
Obligations, irrespective of whether Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person shall have made any demand under the Repurchase Documents and regardless of any other collateral securing such amounts, and in all cases without waiver or
prejudice of Buyer’s rights to recover a deficiency. Seller and Pledgor shall be deemed directly indebted to Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer and the other Indemnified Persons in the full amount of all amounts owing to Buyer, any Affiliate of
Buyer and the other Indemnified Persons by Seller or Pledgor under the Repurchase Documents and the Repurchase Obligations, and Buyer shall be entitled to exercise the rights of set–off provided for above. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BUYER,
ANY AFFILIATE OF BUYER OR ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PERSONS TO EXERCISE THEIR RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PURCHASED ASSETS, THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL OR OTHER INDEMNIFIED PERSONS UNDER THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING THE FOREGOING
RIGHT OF SET–OFF, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED BY SELLER. 

  
 -101- 













 Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person shall promptly
notify Seller after any such set-off and application made by Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or such Indemnified Person, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set–off and application. If an amount or obligation is unascertained, Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the
estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other party when the amount or obligation is ascertained. Nothing in this Section 18.16 shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This
Section 18.16 shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, Lien or other rights to which Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any
Indemnified Person is at any time otherwise entitled. 

Section 18.17    Seller’s Waiver of
Set-off. Seller hereby waives any right of set-off it may have or to which it may be or become entitled under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise against
Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer, any Indemnified Person or their respective assets or properties. 

Section 18.18    Power of Attorney. Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing
statement or statements relating to the Purchased Assets (including a financing statement describing the collateral as “all assets of the debtor” or such other super-generic description thereof as Buyer may determine) without Seller’s
signature thereon as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate. Seller hereby appoints Buyer as Seller’s agent and attorney in fact to file any such financing statement or statements in Seller’s name and to perform all other acts which
Buyer deems appropriate to perfect and preserve its ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Purchased Assets in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and
the other Repurchase Documents, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing (including, but not limited, to sending “good-bye letters”
to any Underlying Obligor with respect to Purchased Assets which are Whole Loans, each to be in a form acceptable to Buyer), and sign assignments on behalf of such Seller as its agent and attorney in fact. This agency and power of attorney is
coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Buyer’s consent. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 18.18. In addition, Seller shall
execute and deliver to Buyer a power of attorney in the form and substance of Exhibit J hereto (“Power of Attorney”). 

Section 18.19    Periodic Due Diligence Review. Buyer may perform continuing due diligence reviews
with respect to any or all of the Purchased Assets, Seller and Affiliates of Seller, including ordering new third party reports, for purposes of, among other things, verifying compliance with the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements,
duties, obligations and specifications made under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise. Upon reasonable prior notice to Seller, unless a Default or Event of Default exists, in which case no notice is required, Buyer or its representatives may
during normal business hours inspect any properties and examine, inspect and make copies of the books and records of Seller and Affiliates of Seller, the Purchased Asset Documents and the Servicing Files. Seller shall make available to Buyer one or
more knowledgeable financial or accounting officers and representatives of the independent certified public accountants of Seller for the purpose of answering questions of Buyer concerning any of the foregoing. Seller shall cause Servicer to
cooperate with Buyer by permitting Buyer to 

  
 -102- 













 
conduct due diligence reviews of the Servicing Files. Buyer may purchase Purchased Assets from Seller based solely on the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Underwriting Package and
the representations, warranties, duties, obligations and covenants contained herein, and Buyer may at any time conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Assets, including ordering new credit reports and new
Appraisals (provided that, other than in connection with Buyer’s review of any Material Modification, any proposed Future Funding Transaction or any other release of collateral relating to a Purchased Asset, no more than one (1) Appraisal
per Purchased Asset, in any twelve (12) month period, shall be ordered at Seller’s cost and expense) on the Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate and
underwrite such Purchased Assets. Buyer may underwrite such Purchased Assets itself or engage a mutually acceptable third-party underwriter to do so. 

Section 18.20    Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all obligations,
duties, covenants, agreements, notices or actions or inactions of the parties under the Repurchase Documents. 

Section 18.21    PATRIOT Act Notice. Buyer hereby notifies Seller that Buyer is required by
the PATRIOT Act to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Seller. 

Section 18.22    Successors and Assigns. Subject to the foregoing, the Repurchase Documents
and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns. 

Section 18.23    Acknowledgement of Anti-Predatory
Lending Policies. Seller and Buyer each have in place internal policies and procedures that expressly prohibit their purchase of any high cost mortgage loan. 

Section 18.24    Joint and Several Repurchase Obligations. 

(a)    At all times when there is more than one Seller under this Agreement, each Seller hereby
acknowledges and agrees that (i) each Seller shall be jointly and severally liable to Buyer to the maximum extent permitted by Requirements of Law for all Repurchase Obligations, (ii) the liability of each Seller (A) shall be absolute
and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect (or be reinstated) until all Repurchase Obligations shall have been paid in full and the expiration of any applicable preference or similar period pursuant to any Insolvency Law, or at law
or in equity, without any claim having been made before the expiration of such period asserting an interest in all or any part of any payment(s) received by Buyer, and (B) until such payment has been made, shall not be discharged, affected,
modified or impaired on the occurrence from time to time of any event, including any of the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of each Seller, (1) the waiver, compromise, settlement, release, modification, supplementation,
termination or amendment (including any extension or postponement of the time for payment or performance or renewal or refinancing) of any of the Repurchase Obligations or Repurchase Documents, (2) the failure to give notice to each Seller of
the occurrence of an Event of Default, (3) the release, substitution or exchange by Buyer of any Purchased Asset (whether with or without consideration) or the acceptance by Buyer of any additional collateral or the availability or claimed
availability of any other collateral or source of repayment or any nonperfection or other impairment of collateral, (4) the 

  
 -103- 













 
release of any Person primarily or secondarily liable for all or any part of the Repurchase Obligations, whether by Buyer or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding affecting any Seller or
any other Person who, or any of whose property, shall at the time in question be obligated in respect of the Repurchase Obligations or any part thereof, (5) the sale, exchange, waiver, surrender or release of any Purchased Asset, guarantee or
other collateral by Buyer, (6) the failure of Buyer to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by Buyer as security for amounts owed by Sellers, or (7) to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, any other event,
occurrence, action or circumstance that would, in the absence of this Section 18.25, result in the release or discharge of any or all of Sellers from the performance or observance of any Repurchase Obligation,
(iii) Buyer shall not be required first to initiate any suit or to exhaust its remedies against any Seller or any other Person to become liable, or against any of the Purchased Assets, in order to enforce the Repurchase Documents and each
Seller expressly agrees that, notwithstanding the occurrence of any of the foregoing, each Seller shall be and remain directly and primarily liable for all sums due under any of the Repurchase Documents, (iv) when making any demand hereunder
against any Seller or any of the Purchased Assets, Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on any other Seller, or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Seller or any other Person or
against any collateral security or guarantee related thereto or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by Buyer to make any such demand, file suit or otherwise pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from
any other Seller or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right offset, or any release of any Seller or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of
offset, shall not relieve any Seller in a respect of which a demand or collection is not made or Sellers not so released of their obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as
a matter of law, of Buyer against Sellers (as used herein, the term “demand” shall include the commencement and continuation of legal proceedings), (v) on disposition by Buyer of any property encumbered by any Purchased Assets, each
Seller shall be and shall remain jointly and severally liable for any deficiency, (vi) each Seller waives (A) any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any amounts at any time owing to Buyer by any other Seller
under the Repurchase Documents and notice of or proof of reliance by Buyer upon any Seller or acceptance of the obligations of any Seller under this Section 18.25, and all such amounts, and any of them, shall conclusively
be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the obligations of Sellers under this Agreement, and all dealings between Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand,
likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the obligations of Sellers under this Agreement, and (B) diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon
any Seller with respect to any amounts at any time owing to Buyer by any Seller under the Repurchase Documents, and (vii) each Seller shall continue to be liable under this Section 18.25 without regard to (A) the
validity, regularity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement or any other Repurchase Document, any amounts at any time owing to Buyer by any Seller under the Repurchase Documents, or any other collateral security therefor or
guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by Buyer, (B) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any
time be available to or be asserted by any Seller against Buyer, or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or 

  
 -104- 













 
knowledge of any Seller) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Seller for any amounts owing to Buyer by any Seller under the Repurchase
Documents, or of Sellers under this Agreement, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. 
 (b)    Each
Seller shall remain fully obligated under this Agreement notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Seller and without notice to or further assent by any Seller, any demand by Buyer for payment of any amounts owing to Buyer
by any other Seller under the Repurchase Documents may be rescinded by Buyer and any the payment of any such amounts may be continued, and the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee
therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by Buyer (including any extension or postponement of
the time for payment or performance or renewal or refinancing of any Repurchase Obligation), and this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified,
supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, in accordance with its terms, as Buyer may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by Buyer for the payment of amounts owing to
Buyer by Sellers under the Repurchase Documents may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Buyer shall not have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for amounts owing to Buyer
by Sellers under the Repurchase Documents, or any property subject thereto. 
 (c)    To the extent that
any Seller (the “Paying Seller”) pays more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, the Paying Seller shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Seller that has not paid its
proportionate share; provided, that the provisions of this Section 18.25 shall not limit the duties, covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of any Seller to Buyer, and, notwithstanding any payment or
payments made by the Paying Seller hereunder or any setoff or application of funds of the Paying Seller by Buyer, the Paying Seller shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Buyer against any other Seller or any collateral
security or guarantee or right of setoff held by Buyer, nor shall the Paying Seller seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any other Seller in respect of payments made by the Paying Seller hereunder, until all Repurchase
Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to the Paying Seller on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all such amounts shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Paying Seller in trust for
Buyer, segregated from other funds of the Paying Seller, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Paying Seller, be turned over to Buyer in the exact form received by the Paying Seller (duly indorsed by the Paying Seller to Buyer, if required), to
be applied against the Repurchase Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as Buyer may determine. 

(d)    The Repurchase Obligations are full recourse obligations to each Seller, and each Seller hereby
forever waives, demises, acquits and discharges any and all defenses, and shall at no time assert or allege any defense, to the contrary. 

  
 -105- 













 (e)    Anything herein or in any other Repurchase
Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of any Seller hereunder in respect of the liabilities of the other Sellers under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be
guaranteed by each Seller under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors.

 Schedule 1(a) 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

RE: PURCHASED ASSETS CONSISTING OF WHOLE LOANS 

Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, with respect to each Purchased Asset which is a Whole Loan, that except as specifically disclosed to
Buyer in an Approved Representation Exception for such Purchased Asset as of the related Purchase Date for each such Purchased Asset by Buyer from Seller and as of the date of each Transaction hereunder and at all times while the Repurchase
Documents or any Transaction hereunder is in full force and effect the representations set forth on this Schedule 1(a) shall be true and correct in all material respects. For purposes of this Schedule 1(a) and the representations and
warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to a Purchased Asset which is a Whole Loan if and when Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event,
circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer affects such Purchased Asset or has repurchased such Purchased Asset in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. 

1.    The Whole Loan is a Whole Loan secured by a first priority security interest in a commercial or
multifamily property. All documents comprising the Servicing File will be or have been delivered to Buyer with respect to each Whole Loan by the deadlines set forth in the Agreement and the Custodial Agreement. 

2.    Such Whole Loan complies in all material respects with, or is exempt from, all requirements of
federal, state or local law relating to such Whole Loan. 
 3.    Immediately prior to the sale,
transfer and assignment to Buyer thereof, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to Seller), participation or pledge, and Seller had good and marketable title to (as evidenced by the Mortgage recorded in
the public recording office of the applicable jurisdiction or the executed Interim Assignment Documents which have been submitted for recordation in accordance with Section 6.02(m) of the Repurchase Agreement, as
applicable) and was the sole owner and holder of, such Whole Loan, and Seller is transferring such Whole Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, encumbrances, charges, security interests or any other ownership interests of any nature
encumbering such Whole Loan, except to the extent otherwise permitted in this Agreement (including Permitted Liens, as such term is defined in the related Purchased Asset Documents) and Title Exceptions (as such term is defined below). Upon
consummation of the purchase contemplated to occur in respect of such Whole Loan on the related Purchase Date therefor, Seller will have validly and effectively conveyed to Buyer all legal and beneficial interest in and to such Whole Loan free and
clear of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest. There are no participation agreements affecting such Whole Loan. Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Whole Loan, and the assignment to Buyer, upon the
insertion of Buyer’s name where applicable and countersignature by Buyer where applicable, constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Whole Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any
nature encumbering such Whole Loan, other than as disclosed to Buyer in writing in an Approved Representation Exception prior to the related Purchase Date. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-1 













 4.    No fraudulent acts were committed by Seller in
connection with its acquisition or origination of such Whole Loan nor were any fraudulent acts committed by any other Person in connection with the origination of such Whole Loan. 

5.    All information contained in the related Underwriting Package (or as otherwise provided to Buyer) in
respect of such Whole Loan is accurate and complete in all material respects. Seller has made available to Buyer for inspection, with respect to such Whole Loan, true, correct and complete Purchased Asset Documents, which Purchased Asset Documents
have not been amended, modified, supplemented or restated since the related date of origination, except for documents executed after the related Purchase Date that either (i) do not constitute Material Modifications, or (ii) constitute
Material Modifications that were approved in writing by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement. 

6.    Except as included in the Underwriting Package, Seller is not a party to any document, instrument or
agreement, and there is no document, instrument or agreement that by its terms modifies or materially affects the rights and obligations of any holder of such Whole Loan and Seller has not consented to any material change or waiver to any term or
provision of any such document, instrument or agreement and no such change or waiver exists, except for documents executed after the related Purchase Date that either (i) do not constitute Material Modifications, or (ii) constitute
Material Modifications that were approved in writing by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement. 

7.    Such Whole Loan is presently outstanding, the proceeds thereof have been fully disbursed as of the
Purchase Date therefor pursuant to the terms of the related Purchased Asset Documents and, except for amounts held in escrow or reserve accounts, there is no requirement for any future advances thereunder. 

8.    Seller has full right, power and authority to sell and assign such Whole Loan, and such Whole Loan
or any related Mortgage Note has not been cancelled, satisfied or rescinded in whole or in part nor has any instrument been executed that would effect a cancellation, satisfaction or rescission thereof. 

9.    Other than consents and approvals obtained as of the related Purchase Date or those already granted
in the related Purchased Asset Documents, and assuming that Buyer and any other transferees comply with customary intercreditor restrictions in the Purchased Asset Documents limiting assignees to “Qualified Transferees” or similar transfer
restriction provisions in the Purchased Asset Documents, no consent or approval by any Person is required in connection with Seller’s sale and/or Buyer’s acquisition of such Whole Loan, for Buyer’s exercise of any rights or remedies
in respect of such Whole Loan (except for compliance with applicable Requirements of Law in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies by Buyer) or for Buyer’s sale, pledge or other disposition of such Whole Loan. No third party
holds any “right of first refusal”, “right of first negotiation”, “right of first offer”, purchase option, or other similar rights of any kind in the related Whole Loan, and no other impediment exists to any such
transfer or exercise of rights or remedies. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-2 













 10.    No consent, approval, authorization or order of,
or registration or filing with, or notice to, any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction or regulatory authority is required for any transfer or assignment by the holder of such Whole Loan, other than recordation of assignments of
each related Mortgage and assignment of leases securing the related Whole Loan in the applicable real estate records where the Mortgaged Properties are located and the filing of UCC-3 assignments in all
applicable filing offices. 
 11.    Seller has not received written notice of any outstanding material
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind for which the holder of such Whole Loan is or may become obligated under the Purchased Asset Documents. 

12.    Seller has not advanced funds, or received any advance of funds from a party other than the
Mortgagor or on behalf of the Mortgagor relating to such Whole Loan or the related Mortgage Note, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by such Whole Loan or the related Mortgage Note. 

13.    Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, assignment of leases (if a document separate from the
Mortgage), guaranty and other agreement executed by the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Whole Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions therein and any state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) that certain provisions
contained in such Purchased Asset Documents are or may be unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable state or federal laws, but neither the application of any such laws to any such provision nor the inclusion of any such provisions renders
any of the Purchased Asset Documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s practical realization of the principal rights and benefits afforded thereby and/or security provided thereby and (ii) as such enforcement
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of
whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The related Mortgage Note and Mortgage contain no provision limiting the right or ability of any holder thereof to assign, transfer and convey all or any portion of the
related Whole Loan to any other Person, except, however, for customary intercreditor restrictions in the Purchased Asset Documents limiting assignees to “Qualified Transferees”, “Institutional Lender/Owners”, “Qualified
Institutional Lenders” or any similar term. With respect to any Mortgaged Property that has tenants, there exists as either part of the Mortgage or as a separate document, an assignment of leases. 

14.    Except as set forth in paragraphs (13) and (16), there is no valid offset, defense,
counterclaim, abatement or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any related Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other agreements executed in connection therewith, including, without limitation, any such valid offset,
defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Whole Loan, that would deny the mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Purchased
Asset Documents, except with respect to the enforceability of any provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees, additional interest, prepayment premiums or yield maintenance charges. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-3 













 15.    Seller has delivered to Buyer or its designee
either (i) the original Mortgage Note(s) made in respect of such Whole Loan, together with an original endorsement thereof, executed by Seller in blank, or (ii) a copy of the applicable Mortgage Note(s), together with an affidavit and
indemnity in favor of Buyer evidencing the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of such original Mortgage Note(s), in form and substance acceptable to Buyer in its reasonable discretion. 

16.    Each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of assignment of leases from Seller in blank
constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment from Seller (assuming the insertion of Buyer’s name), except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or
other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Each related Mortgage and
assignment of leases evidences a first-priority lien, and each is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each Mortgaged Property (subject to and excepting Permitted Liens and the Title Exceptions) is free and clear of any
recorded mechanics’ liens, recorded materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances which are prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a
lender’s title insurance policy (as described below), and subject to the rights of tenants (as tenants only) (subject to and excepting Permitted Liens and the Title Exceptions), and no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such
lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for, or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy. 

17.    The Whole Loan is secured by one or more Mortgages and each such Mortgage is a valid and
enforceable first lien on the related Mortgaged Property subject only to the exceptions set forth in paragraphs (13) and (16) above and the following title exceptions (each such title exception, a “Title Exception”, and
collectively, the “Title Exceptions”): (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements
and other matters of public record, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or
with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Whole Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property, (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in
the applicable policy described in paragraph (21) below or appearing of record, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the
security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Whole Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property, (d) other matters
to which like properties are commonly subject, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such
Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Whole Loan when they become due or materially and 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-4 













 
adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property, (e) the right of tenants (whether underground leases, space leases or operating leases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property to
remain following a foreclosure or similar proceeding and (f) if such Whole Loan is cross-collateralized with any other Whole Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for such other Whole Loan, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially
and adversely interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Whole Loan when they become
due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property. Each title policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not
available in which case such exclusion may exist), (a) that the area shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage and (b) to the extent that the Mortgaged Property consists of two or more adjoining
parcels, such parcels are contiguous. There are no Whole Loans that are senior or pari passu with respect to the related Mortgaged Property or such Whole Loan. The Mortgagor has good and marketable title to the Mortgaged Property, no claims
under the title policies insuring the Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Properties have been made, and the Mortgagor has not received any written notice regarding any material violation of any easement, restrictive covenant or similar
instrument affecting the Mortgaged Property. 
 18.    UCC financing statements have been filed and/or
recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper form for filing and recording), in the appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary to perfect a valid security interest in all items of personal property in
which a security interest may be perfected under the UCC, located on the Mortgaged Property that are owned by the Mortgagor and either (i) are reasonably necessary to operate the Mortgaged Property or (ii) are (as indicated in the
appraisal obtained in connection with the origination of the related Whole Loan) material to the value of the Mortgaged Property (other than any non-material personal property, any personal property subject to
a purchase money security interest or a sale and leaseback financing arrangement permitted under the terms of such Whole Loan or any other personal property leases applicable to such personal property) to the extent perfection may be effected
pursuant to applicable law by recording or filing of UCC financing statements, and the Mortgages, security agreements, chattel Mortgages or equivalent documents related to and delivered in connection with the related Whole Loan establish and create
a valid and enforceable lien and priority security interest on the items of personalty described above, which security interest is senior to all other creditors of the Mortgagor, other than with respect to Permitted Liens, except as such enforcement
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of
whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that
possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection. 

19.    All real estate taxes and governmental assessments, and other outstanding governmental charges
(including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) or installments thereof, which would be a lien on the Mortgaged Property and that have become delinquent in 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-5 













 
respect of the Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by
an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and
installments thereof shall not be considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon, and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the
related taxing authority. 
 20.    Except as may be set forth in the property condition reports
delivered to Buyer with respect to the Mortgaged Properties, (a) each related Mortgaged Property is free and clear of any material damage (other than deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination or which are
then-currently being maintained) that would affect materially and adversely the value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Whole Loan and (b) there was no proceeding pending or, based solely upon the delivery of written notice thereof
from the appropriate condemning authority, threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property. 

An engineering report was prepared in connection with the origination of each Whole Loan no more than twelve (12) months
prior to the Purchase Date for the related Purchased Asset, which states that all building systems for the improvements of each related Mortgaged Property are in good working order, and further indicates that each related Mortgaged Property
(a) is free of any material damage, (b) is in good repair and condition, and (c) is free of structural defects, except to the extent (i) any damage or deficiencies that would not materially and adversely affect the use, operation
or value of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or repairs with respect to such damage or deficiencies estimated to cost less than $50,000 in the aggregate per Mortgaged Property; (ii) such repairs
have been completed; or (iii) escrows in an aggregate amount consistent with the standards utilized by Seller (or the originator of such Whole Loan, if applicable) with respect to similar loans it holds for its own account have been
established, which escrows will in all events be in an aggregate amount not less than the estimated cost of such repairs. There are no material issues with the physical condition of the Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on
the use, operation or value of the Mortgaged Property other than those disclosed in the engineering report and those addressed in sub-clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence. 

21.    The lien of each related Mortgage as a first priority lien in the original principal amount of such
Whole Loan after all advances of principal is insured by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy (or, until the policy is issued, a binding commitment therefor), or its equivalent as adopted in the applicable jurisdiction, insuring the
Mortgagee, its successors and assigns, subject only to Permitted Liens and the Title Exceptions; the Mortgagee or its successors or assigns is the sole named insured of such policy; such policy is assignable without consent of the insurer and Seller
and will inure to the benefit of the Mortgagee of record; such title policy is in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; all premiums thereon have been paid; no claims have been made under
such policy and no circumstance exists which would impair or diminish the coverage of such policy. The insurer issuing such policy is either (x) a nationally-recognized title insurance company or
(y) qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-6 













 
to the extent required; such policy contains no material exclusions for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such insurance is not
available) (a) access to public road or (b) against any loss due to encroachments of any material portion of the improvements thereon. 

22.    Insurance coverage is being maintained with respect to the Mortgaged Property in compliance in all
material respects with the requirements under each related Mortgage, which insurance covered such risks as are customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable
to the related Mortgaged Property in the jurisdiction in which such Mortgaged Property is located, and (A) with respect to a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” insurance policy that includes replacement cost
valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or
“A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (the “Insurance Rating Requirements”), is in
an amount (subject to a customary deductible) at least equal to the lesser of (i) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment located on such Mortgaged Property (with
no deduction for physical depreciation), or (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan, and in any event, not less than the amount necessary, or containing such endorsements as are necessary, to prevent operation of any co-insurance provisions; and, except if such Mortgaged Property is operated as a mobile home park, is also covered by business interruption or rental loss insurance, in an amount at least equal to twelve
(12) months of operations of the related Mortgaged Property (or with respect to each Whole Loan with a principal balance of $35 million or more, 18 months); (B) for a Whole Loan with a principal balance of $50 million or more contains
a 180 day “extended period of indemnity”; and (C) covers the actual loss sustained during restoration, all of which is in full force and effect with respect to each related Mortgaged Property; all premiums due and payable have been
paid; and no notice of termination or cancellation with respect to any such insurance policy has been received by Seller. Except for certain amounts not greater than amounts which would be considered prudent by an institutional commercial and/or
multifamily mortgage lender with respect to a similar Whole Loan and which are set forth in the related Mortgage, any insurance proceeds in respect of a casualty loss, will be applied either (i) to the repair or restoration of all or part of
the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the principal amount of the related Whole Loan, the lender (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or
restoration progresses, or (ii) the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan together with any accrued interest thereon, subject in either case to requirements with respect to leases at the related Mortgaged Property and
to other exceptions customarily provided for by prudent institutional lenders for similar loans. The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Purchased Asset Documents, by a commercial general liability
insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including broad-form coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by
prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate. An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of the Mortgaged Properties
located in seismic zone 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-7 













 
the probable maximum loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a
475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the
improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements in an amount not less than 150% of the PML. If windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named
storms” are excluded from the primary property damage insurance policy the Mortgaged Property is insured by a separate windstorm insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from
windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount at least equal to 100% of the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements and personalty and fixtures included in the related Mortgaged Property by
an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements. 
 The insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming
the Mortgagee, its successors and assigns as loss payee, in the case of a property insurance policy, and additional insured in the case of a liability insurance policy and provide that they are not terminable without at least thirty (30) days
prior written notice to the Mortgagee (or, with respect to non-payment, ten (10) days prior written notice to the Mortgagee) or such lesser period as prescribed by applicable law. Each Mortgage requires
that the Mortgagor maintain insurance as described above or permits the Mortgagee to require insurance as described above, and permits the Mortgagee to purchase such insurance at the Mortgagor’s expense if Mortgagor fails to do so. 

23.    Other than payments due but not yet thirty (30) days or more delinquent, (a) there is no,
and since origination there has been no, material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Purchased Asset Documents, and no event has occurred (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the
passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not address
or otherwise cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to any matter otherwise covered by any other representation and warranty made by Seller in any paragraph of this Schedule 1(a),
(b) Seller has not waived any material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under such Mortgage or Mortgage Note and (c) pursuant to the terms of the related Purchased Asset Documents, no Person or party other than the
holder of such Mortgage Note (or its servicer) may declare any event of default or accelerate the related indebtedness under either of such Mortgage or Mortgage Note. 

24.    Such Whole Loan is not, and since its origination, has not been thirty (30) days or more past
due in respect of any scheduled payment. Seller has not received any written notice that the Whole Loan may be subject to reduction or disallowance for any reason, including without limitation, any setoff, right of recoupment, defense, counterclaim
or impairment of any kind. 
 25.    Each related Mortgage does not provide for or permit, without the
prior written consent of the holder of the Mortgage Note, the related Mortgaged Property to secure any other promissory note or obligation except as expressly described in the following sentence. The


  
 Sch. 1(a)-8 













 
related Mortgaged Property is not encumbered, and none of the Purchased Asset Documents permits the related Mortgaged Property to be encumbered subsequent to the related Purchase Date without the
prior written consent of the holder of such Whole Loan, by any lien securing the payment of money junior to or of equal priority with, or superior to, the lien of the related Mortgage (other than Permitted Liens, Title Exceptions, taxes, assessments
and contested mechanics and materialmens liens that become payable after the Purchase Date of the related Whole Loan). 

26.    To the extent such Whole Loan is identified in writing by Seller to Buyer as being REMIC eligible,
such Whole Loan constitutes a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)of the Code (without regard to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860G-2(a)(3) or 1.860G-2(f)(2)), is directly secured by a Mortgage on a commercial property or a multifamily residential property, and (A) the issue price of the Whole Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not
exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Whole Loan and (B) either (1) substantially all of the proceeds of such Whole Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the portion of such commercial
or multifamily residential property that consists of an interest in real property (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.856-3(c) and 1.856-3(d)) and
such interest in real property was the only security for such Whole Loan as of the Testing Date (as defined below), or (2) the fair market value of the interest in real property which secures such Whole Loan was at least equal to eighty percent
(80%) of the principal amount of the Whole Loan (a) as of the Testing Date, or (b) as of the related Purchase Date. For purposes of the previous sentence, (1) the fair market value of the referenced interest in real property shall
first be reduced by (a) the amount of any lien on such interest in real property that is senior to the Whole Loan, and (b) a proportionate amount of any lien on such interest in real property that is on a parity with the Whole Loan, and
(2) the “Testing Date” shall be the date on which the referenced Whole Loan was originated unless (a) such Whole Loan was modified after the date of its origination in a manner that would cause a “significant
modification” of such Whole Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(b), and (b) such “significant modification” did not occur at a time when such Whole Loan
was in default or when default with respect to such Whole Loan was reasonably foreseeable. However, if the referenced Whole Loan has been subjected to a “significant modification” after the date of its origination and at a time when such
Whole Loan was not in default or when default with respect to such Whole Loan was not reasonably foreseeable, the Testing Date shall be the date upon which the latest such “significant modification” occurred. 

27.    Except as set forth in the ESA (as defined herein): (i) there is no material and adverse
environmental condition or circumstance affecting the Mortgaged Property; (ii) there is no material violation of any applicable Environmental Law with respect to the Mortgaged Property; and (iii) neither Seller nor the Mortgagor has taken
any actions which would cause the Mortgaged Property not to be in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws. The Purchased Asset Documents require the borrower to comply with all Environmental Laws; and each Mortgagor has agreed to indemnify
the Mortgagee for any losses resulting from any material, adverse environmental condition or failure of the Mortgagor to abide by such Environmental Laws or has provided environmental insurance. 

At origination, each Mortgagor represented and warranted that no hazardous materials or any other substances or materials
which are included under or regulated by 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-9 













 
Environmental Laws are located on, or have been handled, manufactured, generated, stored, processed, or disposed of on or released or discharged from the Mortgaged Property, except for those
substances commonly used in the operation and maintenance of properties of kind and nature similar to those of the Mortgaged Property in compliance with all Environmental Laws and in a manner that does not result in contamination of the Mortgaged
Property or in a material adverse effect on the value, use or operations of the Mortgaged Property. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II site assessment) and, with respect to certain Whole Loans, a
Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Whole Loan within twelve (12) months prior to its origination
date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not reveal any known circumstance or condition that rendered the Mortgaged Property at the date of the ESA in material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws or
the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) or the need for further investigation,
or (ii) if any material noncompliance with Environmental Laws or the existence of an Environmental Condition was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) 125% of the funds reasonably estimated
by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held by the
related lender; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials and the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required
to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to
the date hereof, and a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as
“closed”); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy meeting the requirements set forth below that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an
insurer rated no less than A- (or the equivalent) by Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch in an amount equal to or not less than 125% of the funds reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to
be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure such circumstance or condition; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and Seller has reasonably estimated that the
responsible party has financial resources adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. The ESA
will be part of the Servicing File; and except as set forth in the ESA, there is no (i) known circumstance or condition that rendered the Mortgaged Property in material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws, (ii) Environmental
Conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor), or (iii) need for further investigation. 

In the case of each Whole Loan that is the subject of an environmental insurance policy, issued by the issuer thereof (the
“Policy Issuer”) and effective as of the date thereof (the “Environmental Insurance Policy”), (i) the Environmental Insurance Policy is in full force and effect, there is no deductible and Seller is a named
insured under such policy, (ii)(a) a property 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-10 













 
condition or engineering report was prepared, if the related Mortgaged Property was constructed prior to 1985, with respect to asbestos-containing materials (“ACM”) and, if the
related Mortgaged Property is a multifamily property, with respect to radon gas (“RG”) and lead-based paint (“LBP”), and (b) if such report disclosed the existence of a material and adverse LBP, ACM or RG
environmental condition or circumstance affecting the related Mortgaged Property, the related Mortgagor (A) was required to remediate the identified condition prior to closing the Whole Loan or provide additional security or establish with the
mortgagee a reserve in an amount deemed to be sufficient by Seller, for the remediation of the problem, and/or (B) agreed in the Purchased Asset Documents to establish an operations and maintenance plan after the closing of the Whole Loan that
should reasonably be expected to mitigate the environmental risk related to the identified LBP, ACM or RG condition, (iv) on the effective date of the Environmental Insurance Policy, Seller as originator, if applicable, had no Knowledge of any
material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting the Mortgaged Property (other than the existence of LBP, ACM or RG) that was not disclosed to the Policy Issuer in one or more of the following: (a) the application for
insurance, (b) a Mortgagor questionnaire that was provided to the Policy Issuer, or (c) an engineering or other report provided to the Policy Issuer, and (v) the premium of any Environmental Insurance Policy has been paid through the
maturity of the policy’s term and the term of such policy extends at least five years beyond the maturity of the Whole Loan. To Seller’s Knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition at the related
Mortgaged Property. 
 28.    Each related Mortgage, assignment of leases, or one or more of the other
Purchased Asset Documents contains customary provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided
thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or
other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

29.    Neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of a multi-tenant Mortgaged Property), nor
any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Underlying Obligor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding. 

30.    Such Whole Loan is a whole loan and contains no equity participation by the lender or shared
appreciation feature and does not provide for any contingent or additional interest in the form of participation in the cash flow of the related Mortgaged Property or provide for negative amortization (except that an anticipated repayment date
(“ARD”) loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the anticipated repayment date). No Mortgagor has issued preferred equity. 

31.    Subject to specific exceptions set forth below and to certain exceptions, which are customarily
acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, each related Mortgage or loan agreement contains provisions for the acceleration of the
payment 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-11 













 
of the unpaid principal balance of such Whole Loan if, without complying with the requirements of the Mortgage or loan agreement, (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any controlling
interest in the related Mortgagor, is directly transferred or sold (other than (i) by reason of family and estate planning transfers, transfers by devise, descent or operation of law upon the death of a member, general partner or shareholder of
the related borrower, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Purchased Asset Documents, (iii) transfers of less than a controlling interest (as such term is defined in the related Purchased Asset Documents) in a
mortgagor, (iv) issuance of non-controlling new equity interests, transfers among existing members, partners or shareholders in the Mortgagor or an affiliate thereof, transfers among affiliated Mortgagors
with respect to Whole Loans which are cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with other Whole Loans, (v) transfers of a similar nature to the foregoing meeting the requirements of the Whole Loan (such as pledges of ownership interests that do
not result in a change of control) or a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraph (34) below) or (vi) transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishing, fixtures, or
equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality, or (b) the related Mortgaged Property or controlling interest in the borrower is encumbered in connection with subordinate financing by a lien or security interest
against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any existing permitted additional debt, (ii) any purchase money security interests, or (iii) Permitted Liens or Title Exceptions. The Purchased Asset Documents require the
borrower to pay all reasonable costs incurred by the Mortgagor with respect to any transfer, assumption or encumbrance requiring lender’s approval, including any Rating Agency fees incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any
transfer or encumbrance. 
 32.    Except as set forth in the related Purchased Asset Documents
delivered to Buyer, the terms of the related Purchased Asset Documents have not been waived, modified, altered, satisfied, impaired, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be
provided by such Mortgage or the use, value or operation of such Mortgaged Property and no such waiver, modification, alteration, satisfaction, impairment, cancellation, subordination or rescission has occurred since the date upon which the due
diligence file related to the applicable Whole Loan was delivered to Buyer or its designee and neither borrower nor guarantor has been released from its obligations under the Whole Loan. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchased Asset Documents:
(a) no material terms of any related Mortgage may be waived, canceled, subordinated or modified in any material respect and no material portion of such Mortgage or the Mortgaged Property may be released without the consent of the holder of the
Whole Loan; (b) no material action may be taken by the Mortgagor with respect to the Mortgaged Property without the consent of the holder of the Whole Loan; (c) the holder of the Whole Loan is entitled to approve the budget of the
Mortgagor as it relates to the Mortgaged Property; and (d) the holder of the Whole Loan’s consent is required prior to the Mortgagor incurring any additional indebtedness. 

33.    Each related Mortgaged Property was inspected by or on behalf of the related originator or an
affiliate during the four (4) month period prior to the related origination date and within twelve (12) months of the Purchase Date. 

34.    Except as set forth in the related Purchased Asset Documents delivered to Buyer, since origination,
no material portion of the related Mortgaged Property has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially and adversely affects the 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-12 













 
value of the Whole Loan or materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, and, except with respect to Whole Loans (a) which permit defeasance by means of
substituting for the Mortgaged Property (or, in the case of a Whole Loan secured by multiple Mortgaged Properties, one or more of such Mortgaged Properties) “government securities” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, sufficient to pay the Whole Loans (or portions thereof) in accordance with its terms, (b) where a release of the portion of the Mortgaged Property was contemplated at origination and such portion was not considered material for
purposes of underwriting the Whole Loan, (c) where a partial release is conditional upon the satisfaction of certain underwriting and legal (including REMIC, if applicable) requirements and the payment of a release price not less than a
specified percentage at least equal to 115% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property, (d) which permit the related Mortgagor to substitute a replacement property in compliance with certain underwriting and
legal requirements (including REMIC Provisions, if applicable) or (e) which permit the release(s) of unimproved out-parcels or other portions of the Mortgaged Property that will not have a material
adverse effect on the underwritten value of the security for the Whole Loan or that were not allocated any value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Whole Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or
compliance with zoning requirements, the terms of the related Mortgage do not provide for release of any portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except in consideration of payment in full therefor. 

With respect to any partial release of a Whole Loan identified in the related Confirmation as being REMIC eligible, either:
(x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Whole Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and
(ii) would not cause the subject Whole Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Purchased Asset
Documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), for any Whole Loan
originated after December 6, 2010, if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Whole Loan outstanding after the release, the
Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions. 

With respect to any Whole Loan identified in writing by Seller to Buyer as being REMIC eligible, and if such Whole Loan was
originated after December 6, 2010, in the event of a taking of any portion of an Mortgaged Property by a state or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, the Mortgagor can be required to pay
down the principal balance of the Whole Loan in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if,
immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property is not
equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Whole Loan. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-13 













 With respect to any Whole Loan identified in writing by Seller to Buyer as
being REMIC eligible, and if such Whole Loan was originated after December 6, 2010, no such Whole Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross-collateralized with another Whole Loan permits the release of
cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties, other than in compliance with the REMIC Provisions. 

35.    There are no material violations of any applicable zoning ordinances, building codes or land laws
applicable to the Mortgaged Property or the use, operation and occupancy thereof other than those which (i) are insured by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy (or a binding commitment therefor), or its equivalent as adopted in the
applicable jurisdiction, or a law and ordinance insurance policy, (ii) are adequately reserved for in accordance with the Purchased Asset Documents, or (iii) would not have a material adverse effect on the value, operation or net operating
income of the Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be
restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction, (b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts
customarily required by prudent commercial mortgage lenders that provides coverage for additional costs to rebuild and/or repair the property to current zoning regulations, or (c) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full
extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. The Purchased Asset Documents require the Mortgaged Property to comply in all material
respects with all applicable governmental regulations, zoning and building laws and ordinances. 

36.    None of the material improvements which were included for the purposes of determining the appraised
value of any related Mortgaged Property lies outside of the boundaries and building restriction lines of the related Mortgaged Property (except Mortgaged Properties which are legal non-conforming uses), to an
extent which would have a material adverse effect on the value of the Mortgaged Property or related Mortgagor’s use and operation of such Mortgaged Property (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance) and no improvements on adjoining
properties encroached upon such Mortgaged Property to any material and adverse extent (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance). 

37.    The related Mortgagor has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, with requisite power and authority to own its assets and to transact the business in which it is now engaged, the sole purpose of the related Mortgagor under its organizational documents is to own,
finance, sell or otherwise manage the Properties and to engage in any and all activities related or incidental thereto, and the Mortgaged Properties constitute the sole assets of the related Mortgagor. The related Mortgagor has covenanted in its
respective organizational documents and/or the Purchased Asset Documents to own no significant asset other than the related Mortgaged Properties, as applicable, and assets incidental to its respective ownership and operation of such Mortgaged
Properties, and to hold itself out as being a legal entity, separate and apart from any other Person. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-14 













 38.    There are no pending, filed or threatened
actions, suits or proceedings, governmental investigations or arbitrations of which Seller has received notice, against the Mortgagor, guarantor or the related Mortgaged Property the adverse outcome of which could reasonably be expected to
materially and adversely affect (a) title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to pay principal, interest or any other amounts due under such Whole Loan,
(d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Purchased Asset Documents, (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate
net cash flow sufficient to service such Whole Loan, (g) the use, operation or value of the Mortgaged Property or (h) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property. 

39.    If the related Mortgage is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, currently, a
trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has either been properly designated and serving under such Mortgage or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law, and except in connection with a
trustee’s sale after a default by the related Mortgagor or in connection with any full or partial release of the related Mortgaged Property or related security for such Whole Loan, and, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after a
default by the related Mortgagor, no fees are payable to such trustee except for de minimis fees paid. 

40.    The Whole Loan and the interest (exclusive of any default interest, late charges or prepayment
premiums) contracted for complies with, or is exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury. 

41.    The Whole Loan is not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other Indebtedness that is
not also a Purchased Asset. 
 42.    The improvements located on the Mortgaged Property are either not
located in a federally designated special flood hazard area or, if so located, the Mortgagor is required to maintain or the Mortgagee maintains, flood insurance with respect to such improvements and such policy is in full force and effect in an
amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders originating mortgage loans
for securitization. 
 43.    All escrow deposits and payments required pursuant to the Whole Loan
(including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) to be deposited with Seller in accordance with the Purchased Asset Documents have been so deposited, are in the possession, or under the control, of Seller or its agent and
there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits that are required to be escrowed with Seller under the related Purchased Asset Documents are being conveyed by
Seller to Buyer or its servicer and identified as such with appropriate detail. Any and all requirements under the Whole Loan as to completion of any material improvements and as to disbursements of any funds escrowed for such purpose, which
requirements were to have been complied with on or before the Purchase Date, have been complied with in all material respects or the funds so escrowed have not been released. No other escrow amounts have been released except in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the related Purchased Asset Documents. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-15 













 44.    The related Mortgagor, or the related lessee,
franchisor or operator was in possession of all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy, consents and authorizations and approvals then required for the use and operation of the related Mortgaged Property by the related
Mortgagor, other than any licenses, permits and authorizations the failure to possess of which would not have a material adverse effect on the use or value of the Mortgaged Property. The Purchased Asset Documents require the borrower to maintain all
such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy, consents and authorizations and approvals. The Purchased Asset Documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related
Mortgaged Property is located. 
 45.    The origination (or acquisition, as the case may be), servicing
and collection practices used with respect to the Whole Loan have been in all respects legal and have met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial mortgage loans. 

46.    Except for Mortgagors under Whole Loans secured in whole or in part by a Ground Lease, the related
Mortgagor (or its affiliate) has title in the fee simple interest in each related Mortgaged Property. 

47.    The Purchased Asset Documents for such Whole Loan provide that such Whole Loan is non-recourse to the related Mortgagor except that the Whole Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and/or guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be
affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events: (i) if any voluntary petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation
pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall be filed by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) Mortgagor or guarantor shall have colluded with other creditors to cause an involuntary
bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) voluntary transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or equity interests in Mortgagor made in violation of the Purchased Asset Documents. Furthermore, the Purchased Asset Documents for
each Whole Loan provide for recourse against the Mortgagor and/or guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related
Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages sustained in the case of (i) any Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud
or willful misrepresentation; (iii) willful misconduct, fraud or material misrepresentation by the Mortgagor or guarantor; (iv) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Purchased Asset Documents; or (v) commission of material
physical waste at the Mortgaged Property. 
 48.    Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
(13) and upon possession of the Mortgaged Property as required under applicable state law, any assignment of leases set forth in the Mortgage or separate from the related Mortgage and related to and delivered in connection with such Whole Loan
establishes and creates a valid, first priority and enforceable collateral assignment of, or a valid first priority and enforceable lien and security interest in, the related Mortgagor’s interest in all leases, subleases, licenses or other
agreements pursuant to 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-16 













 
which any person is entitled to occupy, use or possess all or any portion of the real property, subject only to a license granted to the related mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to
perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium,
redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The
related Mortgage or related assignment of leases, subject to applicable law and to bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), provides that, upon an event of default under such Whole Loan, the beneficiary thereof is permitted to
seek the appointment of a receiver for the collection of rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the mortgagee. 

49.    With respect to any Whole Loan identified in the related Confirmation as being REMIC eligible, any
prepayment premium and yield maintenance charge constitutes a “customary prepayment penalty” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). 

50.    If such Whole Loan contains a provision for any defeasance of mortgage collateral, such Whole Loan
permits defeasance (1) no earlier than two (2) years after any securitization of such Whole Loan and (2) only with substitute collateral constituting “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(i) in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note when due. If the Whole Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial
defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to 115% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be
released and the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption. If the Mortgagor would continue to own assets in addition to the defeasance collateral, the portion of the Whole Loan secured by
defeasance collateral is required to be assumed by a Single Purpose Entity (as such term is defined below). Such Whole Loan was not originated with the intent to collateralize a REMIC offering with obligations that are not real estate mortgages. In
addition, if such Mortgage contains such a defeasance provision, it provides (or otherwise contains provisions pursuant to which the holder can require) that an opinion be provided to the effect that such holder has a first priority perfected
security interest in the defeasance collateral. The related Purchased Asset Documents permit the lender to charge all of its expenses associated with a defeasance to the Mortgagor (including rating agencies’ fees, accounting fees and
attorneys’ fees), and provide that the related Mortgagor must deliver (or otherwise, the Purchased Asset Documents contain certain provisions pursuant to which the lender can require) (a) an accountant’s certification as to the
adequacy of the defeasance collateral to make payments under the related Whole Loan for the remainder of its term, (b) an opinion of counsel that the defeasance will not cause any holder to lose its status as a REMIC, and (c) assurances
from each applicable Rating Agency that the defeasance will not result in the withdrawal, downgrade or qualification of the ratings assigned to any certificates backed by the related Whole Loan. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-17 













 51.    To the extent required under applicable law as
necessary for the enforceability or collectability of the Whole Loan, each holder of the related Mortgage Note is authorized to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized
does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Whole Loan. 
 52.    Neither the
Mortgagee nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contributions to the Mortgagor under the Whole Loan. Neither the Mortgagee nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make loans to, make guarantees on behalf of, or
otherwise extend credit to, or make any of the foregoing for the benefit of, the Mortgagor or any other person under or in connection with the Whole Loan. 

53.    Each related Mortgaged Property constitutes one or more complete separate tax lots (or the related
Mortgagor has covenanted or applied to obtain separate tax lots and a Person has indemnified the Mortgagee for any loss suffered in connection therewith or an escrow of funds in an amount sufficient to pay taxes resulting from a breach thereof has
been established) or is subject to an endorsement under the related title insurance policy. 
 54.    An
Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property was conducted in connection with the origination of such Whole Loan with an appraisal date within six (6) months of the Whole Loan origination date and within twelve (12) months of the Purchase
Date. The Appraisal is signed by an appraiser who is a Member of the Appraisal Institute and had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not
affected by the approval or disapproval of the Whole Loan. Such Appraisal satisfied in all material respects the guidelines in Title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Whole
Loan was originated. 
 55.    The related Purchased Asset Documents require the Mortgagor to provide
the Mortgagee with certain financial information at the times required under the related Purchased Asset Documents. 

56.    To Seller’s Knowledge, each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public
road and has direct legal access to such road, or has access via an irrevocable easement or irrevocable right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, and (b) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private
water and sewer (or well and septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property. 

57.    With respect to each Whole Loan that is secured by a leasehold estate under a Ground Lease in whole
or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interests in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of
Seller, its 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-18 













 
successors and assigns, Seller represents and warrants the following with respect to the related Ground Lease: 

(i)    Such Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been duly recorded or submitted for
recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction, and such Ground Lease permits the interest of the lessee thereunder to be encumbered by the related Mortgage or, if consent of the lessor thereunder is required,
it has been obtained prior to the related Purchase Date. The Ground Lease does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided
by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since its recordation, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Underwriting Package. 

(ii)    Upon the foreclosure of the Whole Loan (or acceptance of a deed in lieu thereof),
the Mortgagor’s interest in such Ground Lease is assignable to the Mortgagee under the leasehold estate and its assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (or, if any such consent is required, it has been obtained prior to the related
Purchase Date) and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Whole Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor. 

(iii)    Such Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated without the
prior written consent of the Mortgagee. 
 (iv)    Seller has not received any written
notice of default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. Such Ground Lease is in full force and effect, there is no material default under such Ground Lease, and there is no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the
expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default under such Ground Lease. 

(v)    The Ground Lease, estoppel or other ancillary agreement between the lessor and the
lessee requires the lessor to give notice of any default by the lessee to the Mortgagee. The Ground Lease, estoppel or other ancillary agreement further provides that no notice given is effective against the Mortgagee unless a copy has been given to
the Mortgagee in a manner described in the Ground Lease, estoppel or other ancillary agreement and requires that the ground lessor will supply an estoppel. 

(vi)    The Ground Lease (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to,
or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, subject, however, to only Permitted Liens and any Title Exceptions and the related fee interest of the ground lessor, or (ii) is subject to a subordination,
non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject. 

(vii)    A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary,
sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease) to cure any curable default under such Ground Lease before the lessor thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease. 

(viii)    Such Ground Lease has an original term (together with any extension options,
whether or not currently exercised, set forth therein all of which can be exercised by the Mortgagee if the Mortgagee acquires the lessee’s rights under the Ground Lease) that extends not less than twenty (20) years beyond the stated
maturity date of the Whole Loan. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-19 













 (ix)    Under the terms of such Ground
Lease, any estoppel or consent letter received by the Mortgagee from the lessor, and the related Mortgage, taken together, any related insurance proceeds or condemnation award (other than (i) de minimis amounts for minor casualties or
(ii) in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking) will be applied either to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and
disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment or defeasance of the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan, together with any accrued interest (except in cases where a different allocation would not be viewed
as commercially unreasonable by any commercial mortgage lender, taking into account the relative duration of the Ground Lease and the related Mortgage and the ratio of the market value of the related Mortgaged Property to the outstanding principal
balance of such Whole Loan). 
 (x)    Under the terms of the Ground Lease (or an
estoppel or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the lessee) and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or
substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan, together with any accrued interest. 

(xi)    The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be
viewed as commercially unreasonable by a prudent commercial lender. 
 (xii)    The
ground lessor under such Ground Lease is required to enter into a new lease with Seller upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including the rejection of the Ground Lease in bankruptcy. 

(xiii)    The ground lessor consented to and acknowledged that or the Ground Lease provides
that (i) the Whole Loan is permitted / approved, (ii) any foreclosure of the Whole Loan and related change in ownership of the ground lessee will not require the consent of the ground lessor or constitute a default under the ground lease,
(iii) copies of default notices would be sent to the Mortgagee and (iv) it would accept cure from the Mortgagee on behalf of the ground lessee. 

58.    The Purchased Asset Documents for each Whole Loan that is secured by a hospitality property
operated pursuant to a franchise agreement include an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Mortgagee against such franchisor, either directly or as an assignee of the
originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each Whole Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing
office. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-20 













 59.    It being understood that B notes secured by the
same Mortgage as a Whole Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, there are no subordinate mortgages or junior liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property (other than Permitted Liens, Title Exceptions, taxes and assessments,
mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens and equipment and other personal property financing). Except as specifically disclosed to Buyer in an Approved Representation Exception, there is no mezzanine debt related to the Mortgaged Property. 

60.    Each Mortgage requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage with quarterly
(other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, and quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual rent rolls for properties that have leases contributing more than 5% of the
in-place base rent and annual financial statements, which annual financial statements (i) with respect to each Whole Loan with more than one Mortgagor are in the form of an annual combined balance sheet
of the Mortgagor entities (and no other entities), together with the related combined statements of operations, members’ capital and cash flows, including a combining balance sheet and statement of income for the Mortgaged Properties on a
combined basis and (ii) for each Whole Loan with an original principal balance greater than $50 million shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant upon the request of the owner or holder of the Mortgage. 

61.    With respect to each Whole Loan over $20 million, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance
Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 (collectively referred to as “TRIA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance
policy. With respect to each other Whole Loan, the related special all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not
specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Whole Loan, the related Purchased Asset Documents do not
expressly waive or prohibit the mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, or damages related thereto, except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by availability on commercially
reasonable terms. 
 62.    Each Whole Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single Purpose Entity for at
least as long as the Whole Loan is outstanding. Both the Purchased Asset Documents and the organizational documents of the Mortgagor with respect to each Whole Loan with a Purchase Date principal balance in excess of $5 million provide that the
Mortgagor is a Single Purpose Entity, and each Whole Loan with a Purchase Date principal balance of $50 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-consolidation of the Mortgagor. For
purposes of this Schedule 1(a), a “Single Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents (or if the Whole Loan has a Purchase Date principal balance equal to $5 million or less, its
organizational documents or the related Purchased Asset Documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties securing the Whole Loans
and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-21 













 
Purchased Asset Documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any
indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Purchased Asset Documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Whole
Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Whole Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity. 

63.    Each Whole Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such
Whole Loan, except in the case of ARD loans and situations where default interest is imposed. 

64.    The origination practices of Seller (or the related originator if Seller was not the originator),
with respect to each Whole Loan, complied in all material respects with the terms, conditions and requirements of, as appropriate, all of Seller’s or such party’s origination, due diligence standards and/or practices for similar commercial
and multifamily mortgage loans, as applicable, and, in each such case, otherwise complied with all applicable laws and regulations. 

65.    Seller has obtained a rent roll (the “Certified Rent Roll(s)”) other than with
respect to hospitality properties certified by the related Mortgagor or the related guarantor(s) as accurate and complete in all material respects as of a date within 180 days of the date of origination of the related Whole Loan. Seller has obtained
operating histories (the “Certified Operating Histories”) with respect to each Mortgaged Property certified by the related Mortgagor or the related guarantor(s) as accurate and complete in all material respects as of a date within
180 days of the date of origination of the related Whole Loan. The Certified Operating Histories collectively report on operations for a period equal to (a) at least a continuous three-year period or (b) in the event the Mortgaged Property
was owned, operated or constructed by the Mortgagor or an affiliate for less than three years then for such shorter period of time. 

66.    Seller has obtained an organizational chart or other description of each Mortgagor which identifies
all beneficial controlling owners of the Mortgagor (i.e., managing members, general partners or similar controlling person for such Mortgagor) and all owners that hold a 20% or greater direct ownership share (i.e., the “Major
Sponsors”). Based solely on the searches performed by Seller in connection with the related Whole Loan, no Major Sponsor or guarantor (i) was in a state of federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, (ii) had a prior record of
having been in a state of federal bankruptcy or insolvency, or (iii) had been convicted of a felony. 

67.    With respect to each Whole Loan secured by retail, office or industrial properties, Seller
requested the related Mortgagor to obtain estoppels from each commercial tenant with respect to the Certified Rent Roll. With respect to each Whole Loan predominantly secured by a retail, office or industrial property leased to a single tenant,
Seller reviewed such estoppel obtained from such tenant no earlier than ninety (90) days prior to the origination date of the related Whole Loan, and each such estoppel indicated (x) the related lease is in full force and effect and
(y) there exists no default under such lease, either by the lessee thereunder or by 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-22 













 
the lessor subject, in each case, to customary reservations of tenant’s rights, such as with respect to common area maintenance (“CAM”) and pass-through audits and
verification of landlord’s compliance with co-tenancy provisions. With respect to each Whole Loan predominantly secured by a retail, office or industrial property, Seller has received lease estoppels
executed within ninety (90) days of the origination date of the related Whole Loan that collectively account for at least 65% of the in-place base rent for the Mortgaged Property or set of
cross-collateralized properties that secure a Whole Loan that is represented on the rent roll. Each rent roll indicated that (x) each lease is in full force and effect and (y) there exists no material default under any such related lease
that represents 20% or more of the in-place base rent for the Mortgaged Property or set of cross-collateralized properties either by the lessee thereunder or by the related Mortgagor, subject, in each case, to
customary reservations of tenant’s rights, such as with respect to CAM and pass-through audits and verification of landlord’s compliance with co-tenancy provisions. 

68.    Seller has complied with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including
without limitation the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Whole Loan. 

69.    No default or event of default has occurred under any agreement pertaining to any lien relating to
the Mortgaged Property ranking junior to, pari passu with or senior to the Mortgage securing the Whole Loan, and there is no provision in any such agreement which would provide for any increase in the principal amount of any such lien. 

70.    To Seller’s Knowledge, the representations and warranties made by the Mortgagor in the
Purchased Asset Documents were true and correct in all material respects as of the date such representations and warranties were stated to be true therein, and there has been no adverse change with respect to the Mortgagor, the related Whole Loan or
the related Mortgaged Property that would render any such representation or warranty not true or correct in any material respect as of the Purchase Date. 

“Ground Lease”: A ground lease containing the following terms and conditions: (a) a remaining
term (exclusive of any unexercised extension options) of thirty (30) years or more from the Purchase Date of the related Asset, (b) the right of the lessee to mortgage and encumber its interest in the leased property without the consent of
the lessor or with such consent given, (c) the obligation of the lessor to give the holder of any mortgage lien on such leased property written notice of any defaults on the part of the lessee and agreement of such lessor that such lease will
not be terminated until such holder has had a reasonable opportunity to cure or complete foreclosures, and fails to do so, (d) reasonable transferability of the lessee’s interest under such lease, including ability to sublease, and
(e) such other rights customarily required by mortgagees making a loan secured by the interest of the holder of the leasehold estate demised pursuant to a ground lease. 

“REMIC”: A REMIC, as that term is used in the REMIC Provisions. 

“REMIC Provisions”: Sections 860A through 860G of the Code. 

  
 Sch. 1(a)-23 













 “Servicing File:” A copy of the Underwriting Package and
documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Underwriting Package that (i) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Whole Loans, (ii) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing
administration and/or servicing of the Whole Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Whole Loans or holders of interests therein and (iii) are in the possession or under the control of Seller, provided
that Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

 Schedule 1(b) 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

RE: PURCHASED ASSETS CONSISTING 

OF SENIOR INTERESTS 

Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, with respect to each Purchased Asset which is a Senior Interest, that except as specifically
disclosed to Buyer in an Approved Representation Exception for such Purchased Asset, as of the Purchase Date for each such related Purchased Asset by Buyer from Seller and as of the date of each Transaction hereunder and at all times while the
Repurchase Documents or any Transaction hereunder is in full force and effect the representations set forth on this Schedule 1(b) shall be true and correct in all material respects. For purposes of this Schedule 1(b) and the
representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to a Purchased Asset which is a Senior Interest if and when Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such
that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer affects such Purchased Asset or has repurchased such Purchased Asset in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. 

1.    The Senior Interest is either (a) a senior or pari passu participation interest in a Whole
Loan, secured by a first-priority security interest in a commercial or multifamily property, or (b) an “A-note” in an “A/B structure” in a Whole Loan, secured by a first-priority
security interest in a commercial or multifamily property. All documents comprising the Servicing File will be or have been delivered to Buyer with respect to each Senior Interest and each underlying Whole Loan by the deadlines set forth in the
Agreement and the Custodial Agreement. 
 2.    Such Senior Interest and related Whole Loan complies in
all material respects with, or is exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to such Senior Interest and related Whole Loan. 

3.    Immediately prior to the sale, transfer and assignment to Buyer thereof, no Mortgage Note related to
a Senior Interest or related Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to Seller), participation or pledge and Seller had good and marketable title to (as evidenced by the Mortgage recorded in the public recording office of the
applicable jurisdiction or the executed Interim Assignment Documents which have been submitted for recordation in accordance with Section 6.02(m) of the Repurchase Agreement, as applicable) and was the sole owner and holder
of, such Senior Interest, and Seller is transferring such Senior Interest free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, encumbrances, charges, security interests or any other ownership interests of any nature encumbering such Senior Interest, except
to the extent otherwise permitted in this Agreement (including Permitted Liens) and Title Exceptions. Upon consummation of the purchase contemplated to occur in respect of such Senior Interest on the related Purchase Date therefor, Seller will have
validly and effectively conveyed to Buyer all legal and beneficial interest in and to such Senior Interest free and clear of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest. Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer













 
each Senior Interest, and the assignment to Buyer, upon the insertion of Buyer’s name where applicable and countersignature by Buyer where applicable, constitutes a legal, valid and binding
assignment of such Senior Interest free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Senior Interest, other than as disclosed to Buyer in writing in an Approved Representation Exception prior
to the related Purchase Date. 
 4.    No fraudulent acts were committed by Seller in connection with
its acquisition or origination of such Senior Interest nor were any fraudulent acts committed by any other Person in connection with the origination of such Senior Interest. 

5.    All information contained in the related Underwriting Package (or as otherwise provided to Buyer) in
respect of such Senior Interest is accurate and complete in all material respects. Seller has made available to Buyer for inspection, with respect to such Senior Interest, true, correct and complete Purchased Asset Documents, which Purchased Asset
Documents have not been amended, modified, supplemented or restated since the related date of origination, except for documents executed after the related Purchase Date that either (i) do not constitute Material Modifications, or
(ii) constitute Material Modifications that were approved in writing by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement. 

6.    Except as included in the Underwriting Package, Seller is not a party to any document, instrument or
agreement, and there is no document, instrument or agreement that by its terms modifies or materially affects the rights and obligations of any holder of such Senior Interest and Seller has not consented to any material change or waiver to any term
or provision of any such document, instrument or agreement and no such change or waiver exists, except for documents executed after the related Purchase Date that either (i) do not constitute Material Modifications, or (ii) constitute
Material Modifications that were approved in writing by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement. 

7.    Each Senior Interest and related Whole Loan is presently outstanding, the proceeds thereof have been
fully disbursed as of the Purchase Date therefor pursuant to the terms of the related Purchased Asset Documents and, except for amounts held in escrow or reserve accounts, there is no requirement for any future advances thereunder. 

8.    Seller has full right, power and authority to sell and assign such Senior Interest and such Senior
Interest or any related Mortgage Note has not been cancelled, satisfied or rescinded in whole or in part nor has any instrument been executed that would effect a cancellation, satisfaction or rescission thereof. 

9.    Other than consents and approvals obtained as of the related Purchase Date or those already granted
in the related Purchased Asset Documents, and assuming that Buyer and any other transferees comply with customary intercreditor restrictions in the Purchased Asset Documents limiting assignees to “Qualified Transferees” or similar transfer
restriction provisions in the Purchased Asset Documents, no consent or approval by any Person is required in connection with Seller’s sale and/or Buyer’s acquisition of such Senior Interest, for Buyer’s exercise of any rights or
remedies in respect of such Senior Interest (except for compliance with applicable Requirements of Law in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies by Buyer) or for Buyer’s sale, pledge or other disposition of such Senior Interest.
No 












 
third party holds any “right of first refusal”, “right of first negotiation”, “right of first offer”, purchase option, or other similar rights of any kind in the
related Whole Loan, and no other impediment exists to any such transfer or exercise of rights or remedies. 

10.    No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or filing with, or notice to, any
court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction or regulatory authority is required for any transfer or assignment by the holder of such Senior Interest, other than recordation of assignments of each related Mortgage and assignment of
leases securing the related Whole Loan in the applicable real estate records where the Mortgaged Properties are located and the filing of UCC-3 assignments in all applicable filing offices. 

11.    Seller has not received written notice of any outstanding material liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind for which the holder of such Senior Interest is or may become obligated under the Purchased Asset Documents. 

12.    Seller has not advanced funds, or received any advance of funds from a party other than the
Mortgagor or on behalf of the Mortgagor relating to such Senior Interest, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by such Senior Interest. With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, no advance of funds has
been made, directly or indirectly, by Seller to the Mortgagor. 
 13.    With respect to each Whole Loan
related to a Senior Interest, each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, assignment of leases (if a document separate from the Mortgage), guaranty and other agreement executed by the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such
related Whole Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions therein and any state anti-deficiency or market value
limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) that certain provisions contained in such Purchased Asset Documents are or may be unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable state
or federal laws, but neither the application of any such laws to any such provision nor the inclusion of any such provisions renders any of the Purchased Asset Documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s practical
realization of the principal rights and benefits afforded thereby and/or security provided thereby and (ii) as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other
laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The related Mortgage Note and Mortgage
contain no provision limiting the right or ability of any holder thereof to assign, transfer and convey all or any portion of the related Whole Loan or the related Senior Interest to any other Person, except, however, for customary intercreditor
restrictions in the Purchased Asset Documents, limiting assignees to “Qualified Transferees”, “Institutional Lender/Owners”, “Qualified Institutional Lenders” or any similar term. With respect to any Mortgaged Property
that has tenants, there exists as either part of the Mortgage or as a separate document, an assignment of leases. 

14.    Except as set forth in paragraphs (13) and (16), with respect to the Senior Interest and each
related Whole Loan, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim, abatement 












 
or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any related Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other agreements executed in connection therewith, including, without limitation,
any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the related Whole Loan, that would deny the mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the related
Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Purchased Asset Documents except with respect to the enforceability of any provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees, additional interest, prepayment premiums or yield maintenance charges. 

15.    Seller has delivered to Buyer or its designee either (i) the original promissory note,
certificate or other similar indicia of ownership of such Senior Interest, however denominated, together with an original endorsement thereof, executed by Seller in blank or (ii)a copy of the applicable Mortgage Note(s), together with an affidavit
and indemnity in favor of Buyer evidencing the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of such original Mortgage Note(s), in form and substance acceptable to Buyer in its reasonable discretion. 

16.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, each related assignment of Mortgage
and assignment of leases from Seller in blank constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment from Seller (assuming the insertion of Buyer’s name), except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership,
reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding
in equity or at law). Each related Mortgage and assignment of leases evidences a first-priority lien, and each is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each Mortgaged Property (subject to and excepting Permitted Liens and
the Title Exceptions) is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ liens, recorded materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances which are prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over,
escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below), and subject to the rights of tenants (as tenants only) (subject to and excepting Permitted Liens and the Title Exceptions), and no rights exist which
under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for, or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy. 

17.    The Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest is secured by one or more Mortgages and each such
Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgaged Property subject only to the exceptions set forth in paragraphs (13) and (16) above and the following title exceptions (each such title exception, a “Title
Exception”, and collectively, the “Title Exceptions”): (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be
provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the related Whole Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property, (c) the exceptions (general and
specific) and exclusions set forth in the applicable policy described in paragraph (21) below or appearing of record, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely 












 
interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations
under the related Whole Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property, (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject, none of which, individually or in the aggregate,
materially and adversely interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the related Whole Loan
when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property, (e) the right of tenants (whether underground leases, space leases or operating leases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property to remain
following a foreclosure or similar proceeding and (f) if such Whole Loan is cross-collateralized with any other Whole Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for such other Whole Loan, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and
adversely interferes with the value, current use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the related Whole Loan when they
become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgaged Property. Each title policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance
is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), (a) that the area shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage and (b) to the extent that the Mortgaged Property consists of two or more
adjoining parcels, such parcels are contiguous. There are no other Whole Loans that are senior or pari passu with respect to the related Mortgaged Property or the related Whole Loan. The Mortgagor has good and marketable title to the
Mortgaged Property, no claims under the title policies insuring the Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Properties have been made, and the Mortgagor has not received any written notice regarding any material violation of any easement,
restrictive covenant or similar instrument affecting the Mortgaged Property. 
 18.    UCC financing
statements have been filed and/or recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper form for filing and recording), in the appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary to perfect a valid security interest in
all items of personal property in which a security interest may be perfected under the UCC, located on each related Mortgaged Property that are owned by the Mortgagor and either (i) are reasonably necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property or
(ii) are (as indicated in the appraisal obtained in connection with the origination of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest) material to the value of such Mortgaged Property (other than any
non-material personal property, any personal property subject to a purchase money security interest or a sale and leaseback financing arrangement permitted under the terms of such Whole Loan or any other
personal property leases applicable to such personal property), to the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by recording or filing of UCC financing statements, and the Mortgages, security agreements, chattel Mortgages or
equivalent documents related to and delivered in connection with the related Whole Loan establish and create a valid and enforceable lien and priority security interest on the items of personalty described above, which security interest is senior to
all other creditors of the Mortgagor, other than with respect to Permitted Liens, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or
affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Notwithstanding any of the













 
foregoing, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than
the filing of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection. 
 19.    All
real estate taxes and governmental assessments, and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) or installments thereof, which would be a lien on any related Mortgaged Property and that have
become delinquent in respect of such Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other
security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and installments thereof shall not be
considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon, and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing authority. 

20.    Except as may be set forth in the property condition reports delivered to Buyer with respect to the
Mortgaged Properties, (a) each related Mortgaged Property is free and clear of any material damage (other than deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination or which are then-currently being maintained) that would
affect materially and adversely the value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest and (b) there was no proceeding pending or, based solely upon the delivery of written notice thereof from the
appropriate condemning authority, threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property. 
 An
engineering report was prepared in connection with the origination of each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest no more than twelve (12) months prior to the Purchase Date for the related Purchased Asset, which states that all building
systems for the improvements of each related Mortgaged Property are in good working order, and further indicates that each related Mortgaged Property (a) is free of any material damage, (b) is in good repair and condition, and (c) is
free of structural defects, except to the extent (i) any damage or deficiencies that would not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or
repairs with respect to such damage or deficiencies estimated to cost less than $50,000 in the aggregate per Mortgaged Property; (ii) such repairs have been completed; or (iii) escrows in an aggregate amount consistent with the standards
utilized by Seller (or the originator of the related Whole Loan, if applicable) with respect to similar loans it holds for its own account have been established, which escrows will in all events be in an aggregate amount not less than the estimated
cost of such repairs. There are no material issues with the physical condition of the Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the use, operation or value of the Mortgaged Property other than those disclosed in the engineering
report and those addressed in sub-clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence. 

21.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, the lien of each related Mortgage as
a first priority lien in the original principal amount of such Whole Loan after all advances of principal is insured by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy (or, until the policy is issued, a binding commitment therefor), or its equivalent
as adopted in the applicable 












 
jurisdiction, insuring the Mortgagee, its successors and assigns, subject only to Permitted Liens and the Title Exceptions; the Mortgagee or its successors or assigns is the sole named insured of
such policy; such policy is assignable without consent of the insurer and Seller and will inure to the benefit of the Mortgagee of record; such title policy is in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement; all premiums thereon have been paid; no claims have been made under such policy and no circumstance exists which would impair or diminish the coverage of such policy. The insurer issuing such policy is either (x) a nationally-recognized title insurance company or (y) qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located to the extent required; such policy contains no material
exclusions for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such insurance is not available) (a) access to public road or (b) against any loss due to encroachments of any material portion of
the improvements thereon. 
 22.    Insurance coverage is being maintained with respect to the Mortgaged
Property in compliance in all material respects with the requirements under each related Mortgage, which insurance covered such risks as are customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the
security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property in the jurisdiction in which such Mortgaged Property is located, and (A) with respect to a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” insurance policy
that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from
A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (the “Insurance Rating
Requirements”), is in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) at least equal to the lesser of (i) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment located on
such Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation) or (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest, and in any event, not less than the amount necessary, or containing such
endorsements as are necessary, to prevent operation of any co-insurance provisions; and, except if such Mortgaged Property is operated as a mobile home park, is also covered by business interruption or rental
loss insurance, in an amount at least equal to twelve (12) months of operations of the related Mortgaged Property (or with respect to each related Whole Loan with a principal balance of $35 million or more, 18 months); (B) for a related
Whole Loan with a principal balance of $50 million or more contains a 180 day “extended period of indemnity”; and (C) covers the actual loss sustained during restoration, all of which is in full force and effect with respect to
each related Mortgaged Property; all premiums due and payable have been paid; and no notice of termination or cancellation with respect to any such insurance policy has been received by Seller. Except for certain amounts not greater than amounts
which would be considered prudent by an institutional commercial and/or multifamily mortgage lender with respect to a similar Whole Loan and which are set forth in the related Mortgage, any insurance proceeds in respect of a casualty loss, will be
applied either (i) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the principal amount of the related Whole Loan, the lender (or a trustee appointed by it)
having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (ii) the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of such Whole Loan together with any accrued interest thereon, subject in either case to
requirements with respect to leases at the related Mortgaged Property and to other exceptions customarily provided for by prudent institutional lenders for similar 












 
loans. The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Purchased Asset Documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer
meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including broad-form coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage
lenders, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate. An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zone 3 or 4 in order to
evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements,
earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements in an amount not less than 150% of the PML. If windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” are
excluded from the primary property damage insurance policy the Mortgaged Property is insured by a separate windstorm insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or
windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount at least equal to 100% of the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements and personalty and fixtures included in the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer
meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements. 
 The insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the
Mortgagee, its successors and assigns as loss payee, in the case of a property insurance policy, and additional insured in the case of a liability insurance policy and provide that they are not terminable without at least thirty (30) days prior
written notice to the Mortgagee (or, with respect to non-payment, ten (10) days prior written notice to the Mortgagee) or such lesser period as prescribed by applicable law. Each Mortgage requires that
the Mortgagor maintain insurance as described above or permits the Mortgagee to require insurance as described above, and permits the Mortgagee to purchase such insurance at the Mortgagor’s expense if Mortgagor fails to do so. 

23.    Other than payments due but not yet thirty (30) days or more delinquent, (a) there is no,
and since origination there has been no, material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Purchased Asset Documents, and no event has occurred (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the
passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not address
or otherwise cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to any matter otherwise covered by any other representation and warranty made by Seller in any paragraph of this
Schedule 1(b), (b) Seller has not waived any material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under such Senior Interest, related Mortgage or related Mortgage Note and (c) pursuant to the terms of the
related Purchased Asset Documents, no Person or party other than the holder of such related Mortgage Note (or its servicer) may declare any event of default or accelerate the related indebtedness under either of such Mortgage or Mortgage Note. 












 24.    The Senior Interest and related Whole Loan are
not, and since their origination, have not been thirty (30) days or more past due in respect of any scheduled payment. Seller has not received any written notice that the Senior Interest and related Whole Loan may be subject to reduction or
disallowance for any reason, including without limitation, any setoff, right of recoupment, defense, counterclaim or impairment of any kind. 

25.    Each Mortgage related to the Whole Loan relating to such Senior Interest does not provide for or
permit, without the prior written consent of the holder of the related Mortgage Note, the related Mortgaged Property to secure any other promissory note or obligation except as expressly described in the following sentence. The related Mortgaged
Property is not encumbered, and none of the Purchased Asset Documents permits the related Mortgaged Property to be encumbered subsequent to the related Purchase Date without the prior written consent of the holder of such Whole Loan, by any lien
securing the payment of money junior to or of equal priority with, or superior to, the lien of the related Mortgage (other than Permitted Liens, Title Exceptions, taxes, assessments and contested mechanics and materialmens liens that become payable
after the Purchase Date of the related Whole Loan). 
 26.    To the extent the Whole Loan related to
such Senior Interest is identified in writing by Seller to Buyer as being REMIC eligible, such Whole Loan constitutes a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)of the Code (without regard to Treasury Regulations
Sections 1.860G-2(a)(3) or 1.860G-2(f)(2)), is directly secured by a Mortgage on a commercial property or a multifamily residential property, and (A) the issue
price of the related Whole Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of such Whole Loan and (B) either (1) substantially all of the proceeds of such
Whole Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the portion of such commercial or multifamily residential property that consists of an interest in real property (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections
1.856-3(c) and 1.856-3(d)) and such interest in real property was the only security for such Whole Loan as of the Testing Date (as defined below), or (2) the fair
market value of the interest in real property which secures such Whole Loan was at least equal to eighty percent (80%) of the principal amount of such Whole Loan (a) as of the Testing Date, or (b) as of the related Purchase Date. For
purposes of the previous sentence, (1) the fair market value of the referenced interest in real property shall first be reduced by (a) the amount of any lien on such interest in real property that is senior to such Whole Loan, and
(b) a proportionate amount of any lien on such interest in real property that is on a parity with such Whole Loan, and (2) the “Testing Date” shall be the date on which the referenced Whole Loan was originated unless
(a) such Whole Loan was modified after the date of its origination in a manner that would cause a “significant modification” of such Whole Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.1001-3(b), and (b) such “significant modification” did not occur at a time when such Whole Loan was in default or when default with respect to such Whole Loan was reasonably
foreseeable. However, if the referenced Whole Loan has been subjected to a “significant modification” after the date of its origination and at a time when such Whole Loan was not in default or when default with respect to such Whole Loan
was not reasonably foreseeable, the Testing Date shall be the date upon which the latest such “significant modification” occurred. 

27.    Except as set forth in the ESA (as defined herein): (i) there is no material and adverse
environmental condition or circumstance affecting the Mortgaged Property; (ii) there is no material violation of any applicable Environmental Law with respect to the 












 
Mortgaged Property; and (iii) neither Seller nor the Mortgagor has taken any actions which would cause the Mortgaged Property not to be in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws.
The related Purchased Asset Documents require the borrower to comply with all Environmental Laws; and each Mortgagor has agreed to indemnify the Mortgagee for any losses resulting from any material, adverse environmental condition or failure of the
Mortgagor to abide by such Environmental Laws or has provided environmental insurance. 
 At origination, each Mortgagor
represented and warranted that no hazardous materials or any other substances or materials which are included under or regulated by Environmental Laws are located on, or have been handled, manufactured, generated, stored, processed, or disposed of
on or released or discharged from the Mortgaged Property, except for those substances commonly used in the operation and maintenance of properties of kind and nature similar to those of the Mortgaged Property in compliance with all Environmental
Laws and in a manner that does not result in contamination of the Mortgaged Property or in a material adverse effect on the value, use or operations of the Mortgaged Property. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I
and or Phase II site assessment) and, with respect to certain Whole Loans related to Senior Interests, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable
environmental consultant in connection with the related Whole Loan within twelve (12) months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not reveal any known circumstance or condition
that rendered the Mortgaged Property at the date of the ESA in material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws or the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM
E1527-05 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if any material noncompliance with Environmental Laws or the existence of
an Environmental Condition was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) 125% of the funds reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to
cure any material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held by the related lender; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of
asbestos-containing materials and the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the
identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the
applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed”); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s
pollution legal liability insurance policy meeting the requirements set forth below that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than A- (or the
equivalent) by Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch in an amount equal to or not less than 125% of the funds reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure such circumstance or
condition; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and Seller has reasonably estimated that the responsible party has financial resources adequate to address the
situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. The ESA will be part of the Servicing File; and except as set













 
forth in the ESA, there is no (i) known circumstance or condition that rendered the Mortgaged Property in material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws, (ii) Environmental
Conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor), or (iii) need for further investigation. 

In the case of each Senior Interest and related Whole Loan that is the subject of an environmental insurance policy, issued by
the issuer thereof (the “Policy Issuer”) and effective as of the date thereof (the “Environmental Insurance Policy”), (i) the Environmental Insurance Policy is in full force and effect, there is no deductible
and Seller is a named insured under such policy, (ii)(a) a property condition or engineering report was prepared, if the related Mortgaged Property was constructed prior to 1985, with respect to asbestos-containing materials
(“ACM”) and, if the related Mortgaged Property is a multifamily property, with respect to radon gas (“RG”) and lead-based paint (“LBP”), and (b) if such report disclosed the existence of a
material and adverse LBP, ACM or RG environmental condition or circumstance affecting the related Mortgaged Property, the related Mortgagor (A) was required to remediate the identified condition prior to closing such Whole Loan or provide
additional security or establish with the mortgagee a reserve in an amount deemed to be sufficient by Seller, for the remediation of the problem, and/or (B) agreed in the Purchased Asset Documents to establish an operations and maintenance plan
after the closing of such Whole Loan that should reasonably be expected to mitigate the environmental risk related to the identified LBP, ACM or RG condition, (iv) on the effective date of the Environmental Insurance Policy, Seller as
originator, if applicable, had no Knowledge of any material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting the Mortgaged Property (other than the existence of LBP, ACM or RG) that was not disclosed to the Policy Issuer in one or more
of the following: (a) the application for insurance, (b) a Mortgagor questionnaire that was provided to the Policy Issuer, or (c) an engineering or other report provided to the Policy Issuer, and (v) the premium of any
Environmental Insurance Policy has been paid through the maturity of the policy’s term and the term of such policy extends at least five years beyond the maturity of the related Whole Loan. To Seller’s Knowledge, except as set forth in the
ESA, there is no Environmental Condition at the related Mortgaged Property. 
 28.    With respect to
each Senior Interest and related Whole Loan, each related Mortgage, assignment of leases, or one or more of the other Purchased Asset Documents, contains customary provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the
practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure,
subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity
(regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 
 29.    No
issuer of the Purchased Asset, no co-participant, no Underlying Obligor related to any Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, no Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of a multi-tenant Mortgaged
Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Underlying Obligor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is the subject of, or is a debtor in, state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding. 












 30.    Except for the related Purchased Asset, each
Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest is a whole loan and contains no equity participation by the lender or shared appreciation feature and does not provide for any contingent or additional interest in the form of participation in the cash flow of
the related Mortgaged Property or provide for negative amortization (except that an ARD loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the anticipated repayment date). No Mortgagor has issued
preferred equity. 
 31.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, subject to
specific exceptions set forth below and to certain exceptions, which are customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property,
each related Mortgage or loan agreement contains provisions for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Whole Loan if, without complying with the requirements of the Mortgage or loan agreement, (a) the related
Mortgaged Property, or any controlling interest in the related Mortgagor, is directly transferred or sold (other than (i) by reason of family and estate planning transfers, transfers by devise, descent or operation of law upon the death of a
member, general partner or shareholder of the related borrower, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Purchased Asset Documents, and (iii) transfers of less than a controlling interest (as such term is defined in
the related underlying Purchased Asset Documents) in a mortgagor, (iv) issuance of non-controlling new equity interests, transfers among existing members, partners or shareholders in the Mortgagor or an
affiliate thereof, transfers among affiliated Mortgagors with respect to Whole Loans which are cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with other Whole Loans, (v) transfers of a similar nature to the foregoing meeting the requirements of the
Whole Loan (such as pledges of ownership interests that do not result in a change of control) or a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraph (34) below) or (vi) transfers of
worn-out or obsolete furnishing, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality, or (b) the related Mortgaged Property or controlling interest in the borrower
is encumbered in connection with subordinate financing by a lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any existing permitted additional debt, (ii) any purchase money security interests, or
(iii) Permitted Liens or Title Exceptions. The underlying Purchased Asset Documents require the borrower to pay all reasonable costs incurred by the Mortgagor with respect to any transfer, assumption or encumbrance requiring lender’s
approval, including any Rating Agency fees incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance. 

32.    With respect to each Senior Interest and the related Whole Loan, except as set forth in the related
Purchased Asset Documents delivered to Buyer, the terms of the related Purchased Asset Documents have not been waived, modified, altered, satisfied, impaired, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any manner which materially interferes with the
security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use, value or operation of such Mortgaged Property and no such waiver, modification, alteration, satisfaction, impairment, cancellation, subordination or rescission has occurred since the date
upon which the due diligence file related to the applicable Purchased Asset was delivered to Buyer or its designee and neither borrower nor guarantor has been released from its obligations under the related Whole Loan. Pursuant to the terms of the
Purchased Asset Documents: (a) no material terms of any related Mortgage may be waived, canceled, subordinated or modified in any material respect and no material portion of 












 
such Mortgage or the Mortgaged Property may be released without the consent of the holder of such Senior Interest; (b) no material action may be taken by the Mortgagor with respect to the
Mortgaged Property without the consent of the holder of such Senior Interest; (c) the holder of such Senior Interest is entitled to approve the budget of the Mortgagor as it relates to the Mortgaged Property; and (d) the holder of such
Senior Interest’s consent is required prior to the Mortgagor incurring any additional indebtedness. 

33.    Each related Mortgaged Property was inspected by or on behalf of the related originator or an
affiliate during the four (4) month period prior to the related origination date and within twelve (12) months of the Purchase Date. 

34.    Except as set forth in the Purchased Asset Documents delivered to Buyer, since origination,
no material portion of any related Mortgaged Property has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially and adversely affects the value of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest or the Purchased Asset or
materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, and, except with respect to Whole Loans (a) which permit defeasance by means of substituting for the Mortgaged Property (or, in the case of a Whole Loan secured
by multiple Mortgaged Properties, one or more of such Mortgaged Properties) “government securities” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, sufficient to pay the related Whole Loan (or portions thereof) in accordance
with its terms, (b) where a release of the portion of the Mortgaged Property was contemplated at origination and such portion was not considered material for purposes of underwriting the related Whole Loan, (c) where a partial release is
conditional upon the satisfaction of certain underwriting and legal (including REMIC, if applicable) requirements and the payment of a release price not less than a specified percentage at least equal to 115% of the related allocated loan amount of
such portion of the Mortgaged Property, (d) which permit the related Mortgagor to substitute a replacement property in compliance with certain underwriting and legal requirements (including REMIC Provisions, if applicable) or (e) which
permit the release(s) of unimproved out-parcels or other portions of the Mortgaged Property that will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the security for the related Whole Loan or
that were not allocated any value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of such Whole Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, the terms of the related Mortgage do not
provide for release of any portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except in consideration of payment in full therefor. 

With respect to any partial release of a related Whole Loan identified in the related Confirmation as being REMIC eligible,
either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Whole Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2)
and (ii) would not cause the subject Whole Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Purchased
Asset Documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), for any Whole Loan
originated after December 6, 2010, if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Whole Loan outstanding after the release, the
Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions. 












 With respect to any related Whole Loan identified in writing by Seller to
Buyer as being REMIC eligible, and if such Whole Loan was originated after December 6, 2010, in the event of a taking of any portion of an Mortgaged Property by a state or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal
proceeding or by agreement, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of such Whole Loan in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, may not be required to be applied to the
restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of
the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the related Whole Loan. 

With respect to any related Whole Loan identified in writing by Seller to Buyer as being REMIC eligible, and if such Whole
Loan was originated after December 6, 2010, no such Whole Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross-collateralized with another Whole Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged
Properties, other than in compliance with the REMIC Provisions. 
 35.    With respect to each
Underlying Whole Loan, there are no material violations of any applicable zoning ordinances, building codes or land laws applicable to the Mortgaged Property or the use, operation and occupancy thereof other than those which (i) are insured by
an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy (or a binding commitment therefor), or its equivalent as adopted in the applicable jurisdiction, or a law and ordinance insurance policy, (ii) are adequately reserved for in accordance with the
Purchased Asset Documents, or (iii) would not have a material adverse effect on the value, operation or net operating income of the Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure
and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of
such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction,
(b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts customarily required by prudent commercial mortgage lenders that provides coverage for additional costs to rebuild and/or repair the property to
current zoning regulations, or (c) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such
Mortgaged Property. The underlying Purchased Asset Documents require the Mortgaged Property to comply in all material respects with all applicable governmental regulations, zoning and building laws and ordinances. 

36.    None of the material improvements which were included for the purposes of determining the appraised
value of any related Mortgaged Property lies outside of the boundaries and building restriction lines of the related Mortgaged Property (except Mortgaged Properties which are legal non-conforming uses), to an
extent which would have a material adverse effect on the value of the Mortgaged Property or related Mortgagor’s use and operation 












 
of such Mortgaged Property (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroached upon such Mortgaged Property to any material and adverse extent
(unless affirmatively covered by title insurance). 
 37.    The related Mortgagor has been duly
organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, with requisite power and authority to own its assets and to transact the business in which it is now engaged, the sole purpose of the related
Mortgagor under its organizational documents is to own, finance, sell or otherwise manage the Properties and to engage in any and all activities related or incidental thereto, and the Mortgaged Properties constitute the sole assets of the related
Mortgagor. The related Mortgagor has covenanted in its respective organizational documents and/or the underlying Purchased Asset Documents to own no significant asset other than the related Mortgaged Properties, as applicable, and assets incidental
to its respective ownership and operation of such Mortgaged Properties, and to hold itself out as being a legal entity, separate and apart from any other Person. 

38.    There are no pending, filed or threatened actions, suits or proceedings, governmental
investigations or arbitrations of which Seller has received notice, against the Mortgagor, guarantor or the related Mortgaged Property the adverse outcome of which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) title to the
Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to pay principal, interest or any other amounts due under the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest, (d) such
guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Purchased Asset Documents, (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow
sufficient to service such Whole Loan, (g) the use, operation or value of the Mortgaged Property or (h) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property. 

39.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, if the related Mortgage is a deed of
trust, as of the date of origination and, currently, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has either been properly designated and serving under such Mortgage or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and
applicable law, and except in connection with a trustee’s sale after a default by the related Mortgagor or in connection with any full or partial release of the related Mortgaged Property or related security for such Whole Loan, and, except in
connection with a trustee’s sale after a default by the related Mortgagor, no fees are payable to such trustee except for de minimis fees paid. 

40.    With respect to the Purchased Asset and each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, such Whole
Loan and the Purchased Asset and all interest thereon (exclusive of any default interest, late charges or prepayment premiums) contracted for complies with, or is exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements
pertaining to usury. 
 41.    The Senior Interest and related Whole Loan are not cross-collateralized
or cross-defaulted with any other Indebtedness that is not also a Purchased Asset. 












 42.    The improvements located on the Mortgaged
Property are either not located in a federally designated special flood hazard area or, if so located, the Mortgagor is required to maintain or the Mortgagee maintains, flood insurance with respect to such improvements and such policy is in full
force and effect in an amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders
originating mortgage loans for securitization. 
 43.    All escrow deposits and payments required
pursuant to the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest (including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) to be deposited with Seller in accordance with the underlying Purchased Asset Documents have been so deposited, are in
the possession, or under the control, of Seller or its agent and there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits that are required to be escrowed with Seller
under the related Purchased Asset Documents are being conveyed by Seller to Buyer or its servicer and identified as such with appropriate detail. Any and all requirements under the related Whole Loan as to completion of any material improvements and
as to disbursements of any funds escrowed for such purpose, which requirements were to have been complied with on or before the Purchase Date, have been complied with in all material respects or the funds so escrowed have not been released. No other
escrow amounts have been released except in accordance with the terms and conditions of the related Purchased Asset Documents. 

44.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, the related Mortgagor, or the related
lessee, franchisor or operator was in possession of all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy, consents and authorizations and approvals then required for the use and operation of the related Mortgaged Property by the
related Mortgagor, other than any licenses, permits and authorizations the failure to possess of which would not have a material adverse effect on the use or value of the Mortgaged Property. The underlying Purchased Asset Documents require the
borrower to maintain all such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy, consents and authorizations and approvals. The underlying Purchased Asset Documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the
jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located. 
 45.    With respect to the Senior
Interest and each related Whole Loan, the origination (or acquisition, as the case may be), servicing and collection practices used with respect to such Senior Interest and the related Whole Loan have been in all respects legal and have met
customary industry standards for servicing of commercial mortgage loans. 
 46.    With respect to each
Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, except for Mortgagors under Whole Loans secured in whole or in part by a Ground Lease, the related Mortgagor (or its affiliate) has title in the fee simple interest in each related Mortgaged Property. 

47.    The Purchased Asset Documents for each related Whole Loan provide that such Whole Loan is non-recourse to the related Mortgagor except that each such Whole Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and/or guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity distinct from the Mortgagor (but may
be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the 












 
following events: (i) if any voluntary petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall be filed
by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) Mortgagor or guarantor shall have colluded with other creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) voluntary transfers of either the
related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in Mortgagor made in violation of the Purchased Asset Documents. Furthermore, the Purchased Asset Documents for each related Whole Loan provide for recourse against the Mortgagor and/or guarantor (which
is a natural person or persons, or an entity distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages sustained in the
case of (i) any Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud or willful misrepresentation; (iii) willful misconduct, fraud or material
misrepresentation by the Mortgagor or guarantor; (iv) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Purchased Asset Documents; or (v) commission of material physical waste at the related Mortgaged Property. 

48.    Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph (13) and upon possession of the Mortgaged
Property as required under applicable state law, any assignment of leases set forth in the Mortgage or separate from the related Mortgage and related to and delivered in connection with each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest establishes and
creates a valid, first priority and enforceable collateral assignment of, or a valid first priority and enforceable lien and security interest in, the related Mortgagor’s interest in all leases, subleases, licenses or other agreements pursuant
to which any person is entitled to occupy, use or possess all or any portion of the real property, subject only to a license granted to the related mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such
lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The related Mortgage or related assignment of leases,
subject to applicable law and to bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity
(regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), provides that, upon an event of default under such related Whole Loan, the beneficiary thereof is permitted to seek the appointment of a receiver for the
collection of rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the mortgagee. 

49.    With respect to any Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest identified in the related Confirmation
as being REMIC eligible, any prepayment premium and yield maintenance charge constitutes a “customary prepayment penalty” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). 

50.    If any Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest contains a provision for any defeasance of mortgage
collateral, such Whole Loan permits defeasance (1) no earlier than two (2) years after any securitization of the related Whole Loan or the Senior Interest and (2) only with substitute collateral constituting “government
securities” within the meaning of Treasury 












 
Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(i) in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the related Mortgage Note when due. If the related
Whole Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at
least equal to 115% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption. If the Mortgagor would continue to own assets in addition to
the defeasance collateral, the portion of the related Whole Loan secured by defeasance collateral is required to be assumed by a Single Purpose Entity. No related Whole Loan was originated with the intent to collateralize a REMIC offering with
obligations that are not real estate mortgages. In addition, if the Mortgage related to any such Whole Loan contains such a defeasance provision, it provides (or otherwise contains provisions pursuant to which the holder thereof can require) that an
opinion be provided to the effect that such holder has a first priority perfected security interest in the defeasance collateral. The related underlying Purchased Asset Documents permit the lender to charge all of its expenses associated with a
defeasance to the Mortgagor (including rating agencies’ fees, accounting fees and attorneys’ fees), and provide that the related Mortgagor must deliver (or otherwise, the underlying Purchased Asset Documents contain certain provisions
pursuant to which the lender can require) (a) an accountant’s certification as to the adequacy of the defeasance collateral to make payments under the related Whole Loan for the remainder of its term, (b) an opinion of counsel that
the defeasance will not cause any such holder to lose its status as a REMIC, and (c) assurances from each applicable Rating Agency that the defeasance will not result in the withdrawal, downgrade or qualification of the ratings assigned to any
certificates backed by the related Whole Loan or the Senior Interest. 
 51.    To the extent required
under applicable law as necessary for the enforceability or collectability of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest, each holder of the related Mortgage Note is authorized to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged
Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Whole Loan. 

52.    Neither the Mortgagee, the holder of the Senior Interest nor any affiliate thereof has any
obligation to make any capital contributions to the Mortgagor under the Senior Interest or the related Whole Loan. Neither the Mortgagee, the holder of the Senior Interest nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make loans to, make
guarantees on behalf of, or otherwise extend credit to, or make any of the foregoing for the benefit of, the Mortgagor or any other person under or in connection with the Senior Interest or the related Whole Loan. 

53.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, each related Mortgaged Property
constitutes one or more complete separate tax lots (or the related Mortgagor has covenanted or applied to obtain separate tax lots and a Person has indemnified the Mortgagee for any loss suffered in connection therewith or an escrow of funds in an
amount sufficient to pay taxes resulting from a breach thereof has been established) or is subject to an endorsement under the related title insurance policy. 

54.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, an Appraisal of the related Mortgaged
Property was conducted in connection with the origination of such Whole Loan with an appraisal date within six (6) months of the Whole Loan origination date and 












 
within twelve (12) months of the Purchase Date. The Appraisal is signed by an appraiser who is a Member of the Appraisal Institute and had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged
Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of such Whole Loan. Such Appraisal satisfied in all material respects the guidelines in Title XI of the
Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Whole Loan was originated. 

55.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, the related Purchased Asset Documents
require the Mortgagor to provide the Mortgagee with certain financial information at the times required under such Purchased Asset Documents. 

56.    To Seller’s Knowledge, each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public
road and has direct legal access to such road, or has access via an irrevocable easement or irrevocable right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, and (b) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private
water and sewer (or well and septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property. 

57.    With respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest that is secured by a leasehold estate
under a Ground Lease in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interests in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from
the ground lessor in favor of Seller, its successors and assigns, Seller represents and warrants the following with respect to the related Ground Lease: 

(i)    Such Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been duly recorded or submitted for
recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction, and such Ground Lease permits the interest of the lessee thereunder to be encumbered by the related Mortgage or, if consent of the lessor thereunder is required,
it has been obtained prior to the related Purchase Date. The Ground Lease does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided
by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since its recordation, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Underwriting Package. 

(ii)    Upon the foreclosure of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest (or
acceptance of a deed in lieu thereof), the Mortgagor’s interest in such Ground Lease is assignable to the Mortgagee under the leasehold estate and its assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (or, if any such consent is required, it
has been obtained prior to the related Purchase Date) and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the related Whole Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor. 

(iii)    Such Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated without the
prior written consent of the Mortgagee. 












 (iv)    Seller has not received any
written notice of default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. Such Ground Lease is in full force and effect, there is no material default under such Ground Lease, and there is no event which, with the passage of time or with notice
and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default under such Ground Lease. 

(v)    The Ground Lease, estoppel or other ancillary agreement between the lessor and the
lessee requires the lessor to give notice of any default by the lessee to the Mortgagee. The Ground Lease, estoppel or other ancillary agreement further provides that no notice given is effective against the Mortgagee unless a copy has been given to
the Mortgagee in a manner described in the Ground Lease, estoppel or other ancillary agreement and requires that the ground lessor will supply an estoppel. 

(vi)    The Ground Lease (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to,
or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, subject, however, to only Permitted Liens and any Title Exceptions and the related fee interest of the ground lessor or (ii) is subject to a subordination,
non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject. 

(vii)    A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary,
sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease) to cure any curable default under such Ground Lease before the lessor thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease. 

(viii)    Such Ground Lease has an original term (together with any extension options,
whether or not currently exercised, set forth therein all of which can be exercised by the Mortgagee if the Mortgagee acquires the lessee’s rights under the Ground Lease) that extends not less than twenty (20) years beyond the stated
maturity date of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest. 
 (ix)    Under the
terms of such Ground Lease, any estoppel or consent letter received by the Mortgagee from the lessor, and the related Mortgage, taken together, any related insurance proceeds or condemnation award (other than (i) de minimis amounts for minor
casualties or (ii) in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking) will be applied either to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the
right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment or defeasance of the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest, together with any accrued interest (except in cases
where a different allocation would not be viewed as commercially unreasonable by any commercial mortgage lender, taking into account the relative duration of the Ground Lease and the related Mortgage and the ratio of the market value of the related
Mortgaged Property to the outstanding principal balance of such Whole Loan). 

(x)    Under the terms of the Ground Lease (or an estoppel or ancillary agreement between
the lessor and the lessee) and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground 












 
lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment
of the outstanding principal balance of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest, together with any accrued interest 

(xi)    The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be
viewed as commercially unreasonable by a prudent commercial lender. 
 (xii)    The
ground lessor under such Ground Lease is required to enter into a new lease with Seller upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including the rejection of the Ground Lease in bankruptcy. 

(xiii)    The ground lessor consented to and acknowledged that or the Ground Lease provides
that (i) the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest is permitted / approved, (ii) any foreclosure of such Whole Loan and related change in ownership of the ground lessee will not require the consent of the ground lessor or constitute a
default under the ground lease, (iii) copies of default notices would be sent to the Mortgagee and (iv) it would accept cure from the Mortgagee on behalf of the ground lessee. 

58.    The Purchased Asset Documents for each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest that is secured by a
hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise agreement include an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Mortgagee against such franchisor, either directly or
as an assignee of the originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each related Whole Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been
filed in the appropriate filing office. 
 59.    It being understood that B notes secured by the same
Mortgage as a Whole Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, there are no subordinate mortgages or junior liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property (other than Permitted Liens, Title Exceptions, taxes and assessments,
mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens and equipment and other personal property financing). Except as specifically disclosed to Buyer in an Approved Representation Exception, there is no mezzanine debt related to the Mortgaged Property. 

60.    Each Mortgage requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage, and the holder
of the Mortgage (if not the holder of the Senior Interest) is required to provide the holder of the Senior Interest, with quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, and quarterly (other than for
single-tenant properties) and annual rent rolls for properties that have leases contributing more than 5% of the in-place base rent and annual financial statements, which annual financial statements
(i) with respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest with more than one Mortgagor are in the form of an annual combined balance sheet of the Mortgagor entities (and no other entities), together with the related combined statements
of operations, members’ capital and cash flows, including a combining balance sheet and statement of income for the Mortgaged Properties on a combined basis and (ii) for each related Whole Loan with an original principal balance greater
than $50 million shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant upon the request of the owner or holder of the Mortgage. 












 61.    With respect to each Senior Interest with a
related Whole Loan over $20 million, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not
specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 (collectively referred to as “TRIA”), from coverage, or
if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each other Senior Interest and related Whole Loan, the related special all-risk insurance policy and
business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism
insurance policy. With respect to each related Whole Loan, the related Purchased Asset Documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, or damages related thereto, except
to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by availability on commercially reasonable terms. 

62.    Each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest requires the Mortgagor to be a Single Purpose Entity
for at least as long as such Whole Loan is outstanding. Both the Purchased Asset Documents and the organizational documents of the Mortgagor with respect to each related Whole Loan with a Purchase Date principal balance in excess of $5 million
provide that the Mortgagor is a Single Purpose Entity, and each related Whole Loan with a Purchase Date principal balance of $50 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-consolidation of
the Mortgagor. For purposes of this Schedule 1(b), a “Single Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents (or if such Whole Loan has a Purchase Date principal balance equal to
$5 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Purchased Asset Documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged
Properties securing the related Whole Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Purchased
Asset Documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s)
or the other related Purchased Asset Documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Whole Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the
related Whole Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity. 

63.    Each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout
the remaining term of such Whole Loan, except in the case of ARD loans and situations where default interest is imposed. 

64.    The origination practices of Seller (or the related originator if Seller was not the originator),
with respect to each Whole Loan related to a Senior Interest, complied in all material respects with the terms, conditions and requirements of, as appropriate, all of Seller’s or such party’s origination, due diligence standards and/or
practices for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans, as applicable, and, in each such case, otherwise complied with all applicable laws and regulations. 












 65.    Seller has obtained a rent roll (the
“Certified Rent Roll(s)”) other than with respect to hospitality properties certified by the related Mortgagor or the related guarantor(s) as accurate and complete in all material respects as of a date within 180 days of the date of
origination of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest. Seller has obtained operating histories (the “Certified Operating Histories”) with respect to each Mortgaged Property certified by the related Mortgagor or the related
guarantor(s) as accurate and complete in all material respects as of a date within 180 days of the date of origination of the related Whole Loan. The Certified Operating Histories collectively report on operations for a period equal to (a) at
least a continuous three-year period or (b) in the event the Mortgaged Property was owned, operated or constructed by the Mortgagor or an affiliate for less than three years then for such shorter period of time. 

66.    Seller has obtained an organizational chart or other description of each Mortgagor which identifies
all beneficial controlling owners of the Mortgagor (i.e., managing members, general partners or similar controlling person for such Mortgagor) and all owners that hold a 20% or greater direct ownership share (i.e., the “Major
Sponsors”). Based solely on the searches performed by Seller in connection with the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest, no Major Sponsor or guarantor (i) was in a state of federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding,
(ii) had a prior record of having been in a state of federal bankruptcy or insolvency, or (iii) had been convicted of a felony. 

67.    With respect to each Senior Interest with a related Whole Loan secured by retail, office or
industrial properties, Seller requested the related Mortgagor to obtain estoppels from each commercial tenant with respect to the Certified Rent Roll. With respect to each related Whole Loan predominantly secured by a retail, office or industrial
property leased to a single tenant, Seller reviewed such estoppel obtained from such tenant no earlier than ninety (90) days prior to the origination date of the related Whole Loan, and each such estoppel indicated (x) the related lease is
in full force and effect and (y) there exists no default under such lease, either by the lessee thereunder or by the lessor subject, in each case, to customary reservations of tenant’s rights, such as with respect to CAM and pass-through
audits and verification of landlord’s compliance with co-tenancy provisions. With respect to each related Whole Loan predominantly secured by a retail, office or industrial property, Seller has received
lease estoppels executed within ninety (90) days of the origination date of the related Whole Loan that collectively account for at least 65% of the in-place base rent for the Mortgaged Property or set of
cross-collateralized properties that secure a Whole Loan that is represented on the rent roll. Each rent roll indicated that (x) each lease is in full force and effect and (y) there exists no material default under any such related lease
that represents 20% or more of the in-place base rent for the Mortgaged Property or set of cross-collateralized properties either by the lessee thereunder or by the related Mortgagor, subject, in each case, to
customary reservations of tenant’s rights, such as with respect to CAM and pass-through audits and verification of landlord’s compliance with co-tenancy provisions. 

68.    Seller has complied with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including
without limitation the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest. 












 69.    No default or event of default has occurred under
any agreement pertaining to any lien relating to the Mortgaged Property ranking junior to, pari passu with or senior to the Mortgage securing the Whole Loan relating to such Senior Interest, and there is no provision in any such agreement
which would provide for any increase in the principal amount of any such lien. 
 70.    To
Seller’s Knowledge, the representations and warranties made by the Mortgagor in the Purchased Asset Documents were true and correct in all material respects as of the date such representations and warranties were stated to be true therein, and
there has been no adverse change with respect to the Mortgagor, the Whole Loan related to such Senior Interest or the related Mortgaged Property that would render any such representation or warranty not true or correct in any material respect as of
the Purchase Date. 
 71.    The Senior Interest has not been and shall not be deemed to be a Security
within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 

“Ground Lease”: A ground lease containing the following terms and conditions: (a) a remaining
term (exclusive of any unexercised extension options) of thirty (30) years or more from the Purchase Date of the related Asset, (b) the right of the lessee to mortgage and encumber its interest in the leased property without the consent of
the lessor or with such consent given, (c) the obligation of the lessor to give the holder of any mortgage lien on such leased property written notice of any defaults on the part of the lessee and agreement of such lessor that such lease will

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Repurchase Agreement, Seller has sold the Purchased Assets to Buyer on a servicing-released basis, and has granted a security interest to Buyer in the Purchased Assets. 

In accordance with Seller’s requirements under the Repurchase Agreement, Seller hereby notifies and instructs Servicer, and Servicer
hereby agrees that Servicer shall (a) segregate all amounts collected on account of the Purchased Assets, (b) hold the Purchased Assets in trust for Buyer, (c) in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement, remit all such income (net of
any deductions permitted under Section [                    ] of the Servicing Agreement), to the account of Buyer at Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association, ABA # [                    ], Account #
[                    ], within two (2) Business Days following the receipt of all such Income by Servicer. Upon receipt of a notice of Event of
Default under the Repurchase Agreement from Buyer, Servicer shall only follow the instructions of Buyer with respect to the Purchased Assets, and shall deliver to Buyer any information with respect to the Purchased Assets reasonably requested by
Buyer. 
 Servicer hereby agrees that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Servicing Agreement or in any other agreement
which exists between Servicer and Seller in respect of any Purchased Asset, (i) Servicer is servicing the Purchased Assets for the joint benefit of Seller and Buyer, (ii) Buyer is expressly intended to be a third-party beneficiary under
the Servicing Agreement, and (iii) Buyer may, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of 












 
an Event of Default under the Repurchase Agreement, terminate the Servicing Agreement and any other such agreement immediately upon the delivery of written notice thereof to Servicer and/or in
any event transfer servicing to Buyer’s designee, at no cost or expense to Buyer, it being agreed that Seller will pay any and all fees required to terminate the Servicing Agreement and any other such agreement and to effectuate the transfer of
servicing to the designee of Buyer in accordance with this Servicer Notice. 
 Notwithstanding any contrary information or
direction which may be delivered to Servicer by Seller, Servicer may conclusively rely on any information, direction or notice of an Event of Default under the Repurchase Agreement delivered by Buyer, and, so long as an Event of Default under the
Repurchase Agreement exists at such time, Seller shall indemnify and hold Servicer harmless for any and all claims asserted against Servicer for any actions taken in good faith by Servicer in connection with the delivery of such information,
direction or notice of any such Event of Default. 
 No provision of this letter or any Servicing Agreement may be amended,
countermanded or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of Buyer. Buyer is an intended third party beneficiary of this letter. 

Please acknowledge receipt and your agreement to the terms of this instruction letter by signing in the signature block below and forwarding

and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Buyer”).

AGREEMENT 

NOW, THEREFORE, in order to induce Buyer to enter into a Transaction with New Seller, and in consideration of the substantial

follows: 
 In consideration of New Seller becoming a Seller entitled to enter into a Transaction with Buyer under and
subject to the terms and conditions of the Repurchase Agreement, New Seller hereby agrees that, effective as of the date hereof, New Seller is, and shall be deemed to be, a “Seller” under the Repurchase Agreement and each of the other
Repurchase Documents to which Existing Seller[s] [is/are] a party, and agrees that from the date hereof and so long as the Repurchase Obligations remain outstanding, New Seller hereby assumes the obligations of a “Seller” under, and New
Seller shall perform, comply with and be subject to and bound by each of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Repurchase Agreement and each of the other Repurchase Documents which are stated to apply to or are made by a Seller. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, New Seller hereby represents and warrants that (i) each of the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Articles 7, 8 and 9 of the Repurchase Agreement are true and correct as to
New Seller on and as of the date hereof and (ii) New Seller has heretofore received true and correct copies of the Repurchase Agreement and each of the other Repurchase Documents as in effect on the date hereof. 












 Without limiting the foregoing, each of New Seller and Existing Seller[s]
agree (i) that it is and shall be jointly and severally liable with each other Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 18.25 of the Repurchase Agreement, (ii) that it is jointly and severally liable to pay the

Repurchase Agreement, and (iv) to execute and deliver such documents, instruments and other things as Buyer may reasonably request in connection with such New Seller’s or Existing Seller’s obligations hereunder and under the
Repurchase Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing, New Seller shall execute and
deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, at any time and from time to time, such further instruments and documents, and shall do or cause to be done such further acts, as may be reasonably necessary or proper in the opinion of Buyer to carry
out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the Repurchase Agreement. 
 Existing Seller[s] and
New Seller acknowledge and agree that, except as modified hereby, the Repurchase Agreement and each of the other Repurchase Documents remain unmodified and in full force and effect and all of the terms, covenants and conditions thereof are hereby
ratified and confirmed in all respects. 
 Notwithstanding any provision, covenant, agreement or requirement to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the Repurchase Agreement or any other Repurchase Document, Sellers agree to amend, restate, or otherwise modify the Custodial Agreement, the Servicing Agreement and the Controlled Account Agreement in order to join New
Seller thereto. 
 New Seller hereby represents and warrants that its organizational documents comply with Article 9
of the Repurchase Agreement. 
 THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS OR CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATIONS OF LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).
