		The Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with Applicable Requirements, in a manner Servicer reasonably expects, in good faith, to maximize collections with respect to the Assets. Except to the extent a different standard of care is expressly provided in this Agreement or any Appendix, the Servicer shall use a commercially reasonable standard of care in performing its obligations herein or therein.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The standard set forth in this Section 2.1(c) shall be referred to herein as the “Servicing Standard.” Owner acknowledges that the Assets include and involve a variety of types of Loans, Collateral, Acquired Collateral, payment status, payment methods and interest calculations, and the applicable Servicing Standard will vary in respect of such differences among the Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, the “Servicing Standard” shall include and incorporate the terms of the Appendices to this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)  Appendices.   Additional detailed procedures for the servicing of any category of Assets shall be as provided in the related Appendices. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and an applicable Appendix, the applicable Appendix shall govern.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.2    Collection of Asset Payments.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)  The Servicer shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Asset Documents (other than any prepayment premiums, penalties or charges that the Servicer has waived in accordance with the Servicing Standard), and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement, follow such collection procedures for all Assets that are consistent with the Servicing Standard.

In addition, no such action, to the extent taken without the consent or direction of the Owner, shall (i) result in an accord and satisfaction of the debt evidenced by the asset, (ii) impair the ability to realize on any Collateral, create any waiver, defense or estoppel which the Borrower could assert as a defense to any action to enforce any Asset Document, foreclose or otherwise realize on any Collateral, including, without limitation, claims of laches, waiver, estoppel or statute of limitations ; or (iii) give rise to a claim of lender liability or similar claims.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)  With respect to any Loan that is subject to a participation interest of any other lender or investors (“Participants”), and as to which the Owner is the “lead-lender” with responsibility for Borrower-facing obligations, as disclosed in writing by Owner to Servicer prior to the Effective Date, Servicer shall comply with the terms and conditions of any written participation agreement with such Participants provided by Owner to Servicer prior to the Effective Date, related to the servicing of such Loan, including without limitation, distribution of payments required to such Participants, obtaining any required consents from such participants and serving as the primary point of contact for participants where Owner serves in such capacity, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in the participation agreements with such Participants:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)  All collections payable to the Owner, whether as the lead lender or a participant, will be deposited into the Custodial Account, remitted to the Owner, and otherwise subject to the same terms of this Agreement as applicable to collections on any other Assets, including those related to the reimbursement of Servicing Advances and payment of Servicing Fees hereunder;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii)  Without limiting Servicer’s rights to recovery of Servicing Advances and other expenses as provided in this Agreement, the Servicer shall be entitled to all payment of expenses or other amounts to which the Owner would be entitled under the terms of the participation agreements;

		(iii)  If any Participant fails to pay to the Servicer any amounts such Participant is obligated to pay to Owner pursuant to the terms of the participation agreements, including but not limited to payment of amounts for loan advances, refunds of remittances made to such Participant (e.g. due to NSF checks), or payment of expenses, the Owner shall, as elected by the Owner from the following: (A) pay such amounts immediately upon the Servicer’s demand, (B) have such amounts treated as Servicing Advances, recoverable in accordance with this Agreement (which such election shall be deemed to have been made if the Owner fails to pay such amounts within three (3) Business Days of the Servicer’s demand), or (C) only if the Servicer will not be responsible for or bear the expense of any such amounts, not pay such amounts;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iv)  The Owner shall provide written notice to each Participant that all notices under the applicable participation agreement must go to both the Owner and the Servicer, at the following addresses: Bayview Loan Servicing LLC, Attn: Susanna Scavazzon, 895 SW 30th Ave., Suite 202, Pompano Beach, Florida 33069, with a copy to Bayview Loan Servicing, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 4425 Ponce De Leon Blvd., 5th Floor, Coral Gables, Florida 33146; the Owner shall cause each Participant to comply with the instructions in such notice and the terms of the applicable participation agreement, and otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Servicer.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(v)  The Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless, the Servicer, its officers, employees, agents and directors from any Damages resulting from claims by Participants, other than to the extent such claims result from the Servicer’s failure to observe or perform any or all of the Servicer’s covenants, agreements, warranties or representations contained in this Agreement, and further shall provide the Servicer with indemnification and other protections from liability identical to those provided to the Owner by the Participants under the terms of the participation agreements.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)  In the event that, after pursuing a foreclosure or other realization on security with respect to any Asset, there is a deficiency judgment against the subject Borrower and/or other Person, the Servicer shall take all actions reasonable and necessary, if any, to cause such judgment to be assigned to the Owner, and any third-party costs and expenses thereof shall be reimbursable as Servicing Advances. The Owner shall have the sole right to pursue such deficiency judgment as the Owner determines.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.3   General Servicing Procedures.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Until the principal and interest of each Loan and satisfaction of the Borrower’s obligations with respect to each Asset is paid in full, unless this Agreement is sooner terminated with respect to such Asset pursuant to the terms hereof, and subject to all Applicable Requirements and the Servicing Standard, the Servicer shall:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)  With respect to Loans requiring advances of principal to Borrowers or other Persons, disburse Loan proceeds in accordance with the requirements of the Asset Documents, and as may be provided in the applicable Appendix, provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be required to advance its own funds for such purposes. In the event Servicer funds any such advances with its own funds, such amounts shall, in addition, be deemed to be Servicing Advances, recoverable as provided in this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)  Collect applicable payments of principal, interest and, to the extent required under the Asset Documents, applicable deposits for taxes, assessments and other public charges that are generally impounded, reserve funds, fire and hazard insurance premiums, mortgage insurance premiums, flood insurance premiums and other insurance premiums, as required and as they become due.

			(c)  Accept Asset Payments in accordance with the Asset Documents. Deficiencies or excesses in payments or deposits shall be accepted and applied, or accepted and unapplied, as applicable. To the extent that any Asset Payment received by the Servicer is deficient, the Servicer shall notify the Borrower of such deficiency (which such notification may be in the form of a subsequent monthly statement identifying such deficiency), reserve and preserve any and all rights which may accrue to the Owner due to such deficient payment so as to avoid any claims of accord and satisfaction, waiver or estoppel for accepting (but not necessarily applying) the deficient payment and commence any and all actions, as required by this Agreement relating to a default by the Borrower for non-payment or deficient payment as required by the applicable Asset Documents.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)  Apply all Asset Payments and impound deposits collected from the Borrower, and maintain permanent account records capable of producing, in chronological order: the date, amount, distribution, installment due date or other transactions affecting the amounts due from or to the Borrower and indicating the latest outstanding balances of principal, impound deposits, advances, and unapplied payments (including Asset Payments and impound deposits related to the time periods prior to the applicable Transfer Date for such Assets).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)  Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Appendix, establish and maintain one or more accounts (collectively, the “Custodial Account”), entitled “Bayview Loan Servicing, LLC, as servicer for Florida Asset Resolution Group, LLC, as Owner.” Each Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Servicer will be required to deposit into each Custodial Account no later than the second Business Day after receipt all proceeds (except Ancillary Income and amounts to be deposited into Escrow Accounts or Acquired Collateral Accounts pursuant to this Agreement) of the related Asset received by the Servicer and to remit such proceeds to the Owner not later than the Servicer Remittance Date. Funds in each Custodial Account shall be held uninvested. The Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from each Custodial Account for any of the following purposes: (i) to remit to the Owner in the amounts and in the manner set forth in Section 2.5(a) and (b); (ii) to fund disbursements of principal to the Borrowers or other Persons with respect to Residential Construction Loans, Commercial Construction Loans, Reverse Mortgage Loans, and other Assets providing for disbursements of principal; (iii) to pay the Servicer any earned and unpaid Servicing Fees and to reimburse the Servicer for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances from the general funds in the Custodial Account; (iv) to reimburse the Servicer for any expenses incurred by the Servicer of its obligations under this Agreement from the general funds in the Custodial Account; (v) to pay to the Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fees) on the Servicer Remittance Date any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Custodial Account; (vi) to reimburse the Servicer for any penalty, late fee or late charge incurred by the Servicer for the late payment or nonpayment of any property taxes and assessments by any prior servicer of any Asset; (vii) to withdraw any amounts deposited to the Custodial Account in error, provided that the Servicer shall notify the Owner of such error, which such notice may be as a part of the regular monthly statements; and (viii) following the Termination Date with respect to the related Assets, to clear and terminate the Custodial Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Servicer is not obligated to deposit Ancillary Income into the Custodial Account, although it may do so for ease of operations, and to the extent the Servicer does deposit such amounts into the Custodial Account, the Servicer shall be permitted to withdraw such amounts at any time in its sole discretion. In addition, the Servicer may withdraw amounts from a Custodial Account to make distributions in accordance with the terms of a cash management agreement or similar agreement in respect of any Asset serviced hereunder.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)  Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Appendix, establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Escrow Accounts”, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled, “Bayview Loan Servicing, LLC, as servicer for Florida Asset Resolution Group, LLC, as Owner, and various Borrowers”) into which (x) all collections from the Borrowers for the payment of taxes, assessments and other public

		charges that are generally impounded, reserve funds, fire and hazard insurance premiums, mortgage insurance premiums, flood insurance premiums and other insurance premiums and comparable items for the account of the Borrowers (“Escrow Payments”) and (y) all amounts representing proceeds of any hazard or other Insurance Policies which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Collateral shall be deposited and retained. The Escrow Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Accounts, no later than the second Business Day after receipt, and retain therein, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Assets, for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from an Escrow Account may be made only to (i) effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items for each Asset; (ii) reimburse the Servicer out of related collections for any Servicing Advances made pursuant to Section 2.3(j) (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 2.3(k) (with respect to hazard insurance) with respect to each Asset; (iii) refund to the Borrowers any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described below, to the Borrowers on balances in the Escrow Account; (v) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Escrow Accounts in error, provided that the Servicer shall notify the Owner of such error, which such notice may be as a part of the regular monthly statements; or (vi) clear and terminate the Escrow Account at the termination of the Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the related Assets under this Agreement; (vii) for application to restoration or repair of the Collateral; and (viii) for transfer to the Custodial Account and application as permitted by the terms of the related Note and other Asset Documents. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer shall pay to the Borrowers interest on funds in Escrow Accounts, to the extent required by Applicable Requirements and, to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Escrow Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. As applicable, the Servicer will determine the amount of deposits to be made by the Borrowers and will furnish to each Borrower, at least once a year, an analysis of the escrow/impound account, to the extent required by Applicable Requirements.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(g)  Be responsible for monitoring and reconciling (no less frequently than on a monthly basis) the Custodial Accounts and Escrow Accounts in accordance with Applicable Requirements. The Servicer shall attempt to promptly resolve any discrepancies and shall be responsible for all expenses and consequences for failure to reconcile and resolve such discrepancies.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(h)  [reserved].
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)  Maintain accurate records reflecting the status of taxes, municipal or county assessments reported on regular notices from such municipalities or counties, ground rents and other recurring charges generally accepted by the servicing industry for the related Asset, which would become a lien on any Collateral due to failure to pay on a timely basis. For all Assets providing for the payment to and collection by the Servicer of impound deposits for taxes, ground rents or such other recurring charges, the Servicer shall remit payments for such charges before the later of (i) any penalty date and (ii) 30 days after the applicable Transfer Date. With respect to Assets providing for the payment to and collection by the Servicer of impound deposits for taxes, to the extent that under applicable state law, a discount for early payment of real estate taxes is available, and there are sufficient funds in the related impound or escrow account, then Servicer shall cause all real estate taxes for such Assets to be paid so as to obtain the maximum allowable discount on such real estate taxes.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(j)  In accordance with the standards of the preceding Section 2.3(i), make Servicing Advances as necessary for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments with respect to any Collateral, which Servicing Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Borrowers. Servicing Advances incurred by the Servicer in connection with the servicing of the Assets (including any penalties in connection with the payment of any taxes and assessments or other charges) on any Collateral shall be recoverable by the Servicer to the extent described herein.

		(k)  Use its commercially reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Borrower to maintain for each Asset (other than any Acquired Collateral), to the extent applicable, and if the Borrower does not so maintain, shall notify the Owner, and only if directed to do so by Owner in writing within five (5) Business Days of such notice, or otherwise required by Applicable Requirements, shall maintain to the extent the Owner as holder has an insurable interest, insurance with coverage on the related Collateral in a commercially reasonable amount, to the extent provided in the applicable Appendix and otherwise in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Asset Documents. With respect to insurance which the Servicer needs to obtain due to a Borrower’s default, the Servicer shall maintain such insurance from an insurer with coverage on Collateral in a commercially reasonable amount. The Servicer shall require that all Insurance Policies required hereunder shall name the Servicer and its successors and assigns as the holder, as loss payee. All insurance shall be purchased from insurance companies having a rating of not less than A- and a Financial Class of not less than VIII, as rated in the most current edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(l)  Deposit into the related Custodial Account any amounts collected by the Servicer under any Insurance Policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration and repair of the related Collateral or amounts to be released to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the related Asset Documents, or amounts typically deposited into Escrow Accounts). It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Borrower or to be maintained by the Servicer other than pursuant to the terms of the related Asset Documents and pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. If any Mortgaged Property is located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Servicer will use its reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Borrower to maintain or, failing the related Borrower to so maintain, will itself obtain flood insurance in respect thereof. The Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Owner, claims under each related insurance policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy and to take such reasonable steps as are necessary to receive payment or to permit recovery thereunder.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(m)  Subject to any contrary requirements in an Appendix or the Authority Matrices, when any Collateral has been or is about to be conveyed by the Borrower, to the extent Servicer has knowledge of such conveyance or prospective conveyance, Servicer shall exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of the related Asset under any “due-on-sale” clause contained in the related Security Instrument or Note; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not exercise any such right if either (i) the “due-on-sale” clause, in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, is not enforceable under Applicable Requirements, or (ii) the Servicer determines that such enforcement would not be in the best economic interest of the Owner. In such event, the Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to enter into an assumption and modification agreement with the Person to whom such Collateral has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes liable under the Note and, unless prohibited by applicable law or the Security Instrument, the Borrower remains liable thereon. If the foregoing is not permitted under Applicable Requirements, the Servicer is authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the original Borrower is released from liability, if required by Applicable Requirements, and such Person is substituted as the Borrower and becomes liable under the Note. In connection with any such assumption or substitution agreement, the Asset Payments on the related Loan shall not be changed but shall remain as in effect immediately prior to the assumption or substitution, the stated maturity or outstanding principal amount of such Loan shall not be changed nor shall any required Asset Payments of principal or interest be deferred or forgiven. Any fee collected by the Servicer for consenting to any such conveyance or entering into an assumption or substitution agreement shall be retained by or paid to the Servicer as Ancillary Income.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(n)  With respect to a Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on- encumbrance” clause, which by its terms (i) provides that such Loan becomes due and payable (or may become due and payable at the lender’s option) upon the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on the related Collateral, or (ii)

		requires the consent of the related lender to the creation of any such lien or other encumbrance on the related Collateral, then for so long as such Loan is owned by the Owner, and to the extent it has knowledge of such lien or other encumbrance, the Servicer, on behalf of the Owner, will be required to exercise (or decline to exercise) any right it may have as the lender of record with respect to such Loan to (x) accelerate the payments thereon, or (y) withhold its consent to the creation of any such lien or other encumbrance, in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(o)  Monitor all UCC financing statements and certificates of title, and file all UCC continuation statements as necessary to avoid a lapse in continuation of a security interest in any Collateral constituting personal property.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.4    Other.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)  The Owner hereby authorizes the Servicer, at the Servicer’s option, to bring or defend any claim, action, arbitration, litigation or other similar proceeding, in the name of the Owner, to effectuate the servicing of the Assets; provided, however, with respect to any Commercial Mortgage Loans or related Mortgaged Property, Servicer shall first obtain Owner’s prior written consent to any affirmative claim, action, arbitration, litigation or other similar proceeding (excluding foreclosures, title claims, or similar actions, or claims, actions, arbitration, litigation or other similar proceeding in response to foreclosure defenses in the ordinary course), which consent may be withheld in Owner’s sole and absolute discretion. Without limiting the preceding sentence, the Servicer may also assert claims or defend against claims involving the insurance coverage with respect to the Assets and/or any Collateral. To the extent that the Servicer incurs any fees, costs, liabilities, judgments, attorneys’ fees in connection with the circumstances described in this Section 2.4(a), the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for these items as Servicing Advances.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)  The Owner shall execute powers of attorney to the Servicer and furnish it with any other documents as the Servicer shall reasonably request to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Owner shall execute any documentation furnished to it by the Servicer for recordation by the Servicer in the appropriate jurisdictions, as shall be necessary to effectuate the foregoing.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)  Upon Owner’s reasonable request and at Owner’s cost and expense, the Servicer shall reasonably assist the Owner in the marketing for sale of certain Assets or groups of Assets on terms and conditions determined by the Owner for the particular Assets or groups of Assets being so marketed for sale. The Owner and the Servicer shall work together in good faith to liquidate Assets in a manner reasonably expected to obtain and realize the maximum proceeds for such Assets. Upon the Owner’s request, no more frequently than quarterly, the Servicer shall meet with the Owner (which such meetings may be by telephone conference) to review the portfolio of Assets being serviced by the Servicer under this Agreement in order to make ongoing determinations on what Assets to market for sale and which Assets to continue to hold.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)  From time to time, the Owner may arrange for the sale of one or more BBX Option Assets to BBX Capital Corporation upon the exercise of the related option possessed by BBX Capital Corporation, and upon written notice from the Owner, not less than five (5) Business Days prior to such a sale, the Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Owner and BBX Capital Corporation in effecting such a sale of such BBX Option Assets on the terms and conditions specified in such notice. If any BBX Option Asset is purchased by BBX Capital Corporation on a date one (1) year or less after the Transfer Date for such BBX Option Asset, the Owner shall pay the Servicer a fee in an amount equal to the average base, periodic Servicing Fees per month with respect to such BBX Option Asset since such Transfer Date, multiplied by the remaining number of months (including partial months) between such date and the date one (1) year after such Transfer Date. In addition, from time to time, the Owner may arrange for the sale of one or more other Assets to BBX Capital Corporation upon the exercise of related options possessed by BBX Capital

			(b)  The Servicer shall remit the amounts described in this Section 2.5 by wire or ACH transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Owner.

		The Servicer shall in accordance with the Servicing Standard:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)  Be responsible for protecting the Owner’s interest in the Assets by dealing effectively with the Borrowers who are delinquent or in default under the Asset Documents. The Servicer’s delinquent Asset servicing program shall include an adequate accounting system which will immediately and positively indicate the existence of delinquent Assets, a procedure that provides for sending of delinquent notices in compliance with the requirements of the Asset Documents and Applicable Requirements, and assessing late charges, and a procedure for the individual analysis of distressed or chronically delinquent Assets, provided that any reporting related to such individual analysis of distressed or chronically delinquent Assets not expressly provided in this Agreement or an Appendix shall be subject to Section 2.5(g); and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)  Maintain a collection department and an on-line automated collection system that complies with the Servicer’s collection guidelines and Applicable Requirements, as applicable.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.7    Foreclosure and Other Similar Realization on Collateral.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)  The Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Collateral securing such of the Assets (if any) as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments or for other disposition of such Assets. To the extent the Acquired Collateral was subject to a security interest under the UCC, Servicer may exercise all of Owner’s rights and remedies as a secured creditor under the UCC, and under the Asset Documents, including selling the interests of the Borrower in the Collateral at public or private sale, in the entirety or in separate parts, as the Servicer may determine. The Servicer shall be initially responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Servicer. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which Collateral shall have suffered damage that is not covered by a hazard Insurance Policy or other Insurance Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such Collateral unless it shall determine in its reasonable and good faith discretion that such restoration will increase the net Liquidation Proceeds for the related Asset after reimbursement to itself for such expenses and that such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)  Subject to the Authority Matrices, as an alternative to foreclosure or comparable conversion of the ownership of Collateral, the Servicer may sell a defaulted Asset, if the Servicer determines in its reasonable and good faith discretion that such a sale is likely to increase the amount of Liquidation Proceeds, and any such sale of a defaulted Asset by the Servicer shall be effected in a manner expected, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, to maximize Liquidation Proceeds. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Servicer has no duty to pursue Asset sales as part of its loss mitigation procedures, other than as provided for Acquired Collateral in Section 2.8(e).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7 or any other provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall neither obtain title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, nor otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, such Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Owner would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared by a Person that regularly conducts environmental audits in accordance with customary industry standards, that:
		

		

		

		 


		

			15

		


		

			 

		




 


		

			 

		




		(i)  such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Owner to take such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii)  there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes or petroleum-based materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Owner to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)  With respect to each Mortgage Loan subject to the provisions of Section 2.7(c), the Servicer shall make the determination described above on the basis of a report prepared by a Person that regularly conducts environmental audits in accordance with customary industry standards, without regard to whether the Servicer has received notice or has actual knowledge of the presence of any toxic or hazardous substances on the related Mortgaged Property.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)  The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 2.7 shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor as a Servicing Advance.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)  If the Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic interest of the Owner to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Owner. The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor as a Servicing Advance.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(g)  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Collateral securing an Asset if in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer it would not be in the best economic interests of the Owner to do so. In such event, the Servicer will not be required to make any further Servicing Advances in connection with the Asset.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.8    Acquired Collateral.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Except to the extent that the Applicable Requirements or any applicable Appendices provide otherwise, the following provisions shall apply to the management and disposition of Acquired Collateral:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)  The deed, title, or certificate of title, or bill of sale to any Acquired Collateral shall be taken in the name of the Owner or an entity designated by Owner.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)  The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any Acquired Collateral separate and apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to Acquired Collateral an account held in trust for the Owner (the “Acquired Collateral Account”), which shall be an Eligible Account. The Servicer shall be permitted to allow the Custodial Account to serve as the Acquired Collateral Account, subject to the Servicer maintaining separate ledgers for each Acquired Collateral. The Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited in the Acquired Collateral Account.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)  The Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to the specific requirements and 
		

		 


		

			16

		


		

			 

		




 


		

			 

		




		prohibitions of this Agreement and the Authority Matrices, to do any and all things in connection with any Acquired Collateral as are consistent with the manner in which the Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by the Servicer or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period as the Servicer deems to be in the best interests of the Owner. In connection therewith, the Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the Acquired Collateral Account all revenues and insurance proceeds received by it (net of any amounts permitted to be retained therefrom in accordance with this Agreement) with respect to an Acquired Collateral and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of such Acquired Collateral including, without limitation: (i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such Acquired Collateral; (ii) all taxes and assessments in respect of such Acquired Collateral that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon; and (iii) all costs and expenses necessary to appropriately maintain such Acquired Collateral. To the extent that amounts on deposit in the Acquired Collateral Account with respect to an Acquired Collateral are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above with respect to such Acquired Collateral, the Servicer shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes if, but only if, the Servicer would make such advances if the Servicer owned the Acquired Collateral and if in the Servicer’s judgment, the payment of such amounts will be recoverable from the rental or sale of the Acquired Collateral.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)  Upon request by the Owner or in the Servicer’s discretion, with respect to any Acquired Collateral, the Servicer shall obtain estimations of the value of the Acquired Collateral from parties selected by the Servicer, which may be broker price opinions if the Acquired Collateral is real property, and shall solicit, in a commercially reasonable manner, bids for the purchase of such Acquired Collateral.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)  Subject to the Authority Matrices, each disposition of Acquired Collateral shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer reasonably determines to be in the best interest of the Owner and provided the sales price and the related terms and conditions are results of arm’s-length negotiation, and provided that unless otherwise approved by the Owner, each purchase and sale agreement for Acquired Collateral shall terminate at the Owner’s option 180 days from the date of execution of such purchase and sale agreement. To the extent the Acquired Collateral was subject to the UCC, Servicer may exercise all of Owner’s rights and remedies as a secured creditor under the UCC, and under the Asset Documents, including selling the Acquired Collateral at public or private sale, in the entirety or in separate parts, as the Servicer may determine. The proceeds of sale of the Acquired Collateral shall be promptly deposited in the Acquired Collateral Account. As soon as practical thereafter the expenses of such sale shall be paid and the Servicer shall reimburse itself in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances, unpaid Servicing Fees and unreimbursed advances made pursuant to this Section, and on the Servicer Remittance Date immediately following the date on which such sale proceeds are received, the net cash proceeds of such sale remaining in the Acquired Collateral Account shall be distributed to the Owner. In addition to the withdrawals from the Custodial Account permitted under Section 2.3(e), the Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the Acquired Collateral Account for any Acquired Collateral to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances made in respect of such Acquired Collateral or the related Loan. On the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall withdraw from each Acquired Collateral Account maintained by it and remit to the Owner the income from the related Acquired Collateral received during the prior calendar month, net of any withdrawals made pursuant hereto.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)  The Servicer shall file required information returns (or extensions, if necessary), if any, with respect to the receipt of interest received in a trade or business, reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Collateral and cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Collateral as required by the Code, to the extent set forth in the applicable Appendix. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by the Code and a copy thereof shall be sent to the Owner promptly after the filing thereof.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(g)  The Servicer shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain any form of insurance on Acquired

			The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The Servicer agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless, the Owner, its officers, employees, agents and directors from any Damages, directly or indirectly resulting from or arising out of (i) the Servicer’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) the Servicer’s failure to observe or perform any or all of the Servicer’s covenants, agreements, warranties or representations contained in this Agreement, or (iii) the absence or unavailability of any documents evidencing or relating to an Asset, including but not limited to any documents necessary to service the Assets in accordance with Applicable Requirements, to the extent resulting from the actions or omissions of the Servicer.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Assets in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may, with the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Owner, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and

Except to the extent that the Indemnitor is prejudiced thereby, the omission of the Indemnitee to promptly notify the Indemnitor of any such claim or action shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability which it may have to the Indemnitee in connection therewith. If any claim, demand or assessment shall be asserted or suit, action or proceeding commenced against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor will be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent it may wish to assume the defense, conduct or settlement thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. After notice from the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense, conduct, or settlement thereof, the Indemnitor will not be liable to the Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses consequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense, conduct or settlement thereof. The Indemnitee will cooperate with the Indemnitor in connection with any such claim and make its personnel, books and records relevant to the claim available to the Indemnitor. In the event the Indemnitor does not wish to assume the defense, conduct or settlement of any claim, demand or assessment, the Indemnitee will not settle such claim, demand or assessment without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

All Confidential Information relating to a party will be held in confidence by the other party to the same extent and with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but in no event using less than a reasonable degree of care. Each party will, however, be permitted to disclose relevant aspects of the other party's Confidential Information to its officers, employees, agents, and permitted subcontractors to the extent that such disclosure is reasonably necessary for the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, provided that such party ensures that such officers, employees, agents, and permitted subcontractors adhere to the same requirements.
