NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

(a) The following definitions are hereby added to Article 2 of the Master Repurchase Agreement in appropriate alphabetical order: 

“Benchmark” shall mean, initially, LIBOR; provided, that if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark
Replacement Date have occurred with respect to LIBOR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” shall mean the applicable Benchmark Replacement. 

“Benchmark Replacement” shall mean the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by Buyer
as of the Benchmark Replacement Date: 
  

	 	(1)	 the sum of (a) Term SOFR and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 



 

	 	(2)	 the sum of (a) Compounded SOFR and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 



 

	 	(3)	 the sum of (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant
Governmental Body as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 















	 	(4)	 the sum of (a) the ISDA Fallback Rate and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or



  

	 	(5)	 the sum of (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by Buyer as the replacement for the
then-current Benchmark giving due consideration to the then-prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate CMBS loans at such time and
(b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 


 provided that, in the case of clauses (1) and
(2) above, such rate, or the underlying rates component thereof, is or are displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate or rates from time to time as selected by Buyer in its reasonable discretion, and
provided, further in all cases that in no event shall the Benchmark Replacement for any Pricing Rate Period be deemed to be less than zero. 

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” shall mean the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be
determined by Buyer as of the Benchmark Replacement Date: 
  

	 	(1)	 the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected or recommended
by the Relevant Governmental Body for the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement; 


  

	 	(2)	 if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA Fallback Rate, then the ISDA
Fallback Adjustment; and 


  

	 	(3)	 the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by Buyer
giving due consideration to the then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of the then-current Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted
Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate CMBS loans at such time; 


 provided that, in the
case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by Buyer in its reasonable discretion. 

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” shall mean, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical,
administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Pricing Rate Determination Date”, the definition of “Pricing Rate Period,” the definition of “Reference Time,” the timing and frequency of
determining rates and making payments of Price Differential or interest and other administrative matters) that Buyer decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration
thereof by Buyer in a manner substantially consistent with market practice for repurchase facilities or similar structured finance arrangements for similar assets to the Purchased Assets (or, if Buyer decides that adoption of any portion of such
market practice is not administratively feasible or if Buyer determines that no market practice for the administration of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as Buyer decides is reasonably necessary in connection
with the administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents). 

  
 2 













 “Benchmark Replacement Date” shall mean: 

 

	 	(1)	 in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of

	 	(2)	 in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the
public statement or publication of information referenced therein. 


 For the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise
to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date shall be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination.

 “Benchmark Transition Event” shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to
the then-current Benchmark: 
  

	 	(1)	 a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Benchmark
announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide
the Benchmark; 


  

	 	(2)	 a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the
Benchmark, the central bank for the currency of the Benchmark, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark or a court or an
entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for the Benchmark, which states that the administrator of the Benchmark has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely, provided
that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark; or 


  

	 	(3)	 a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the
Benchmark announcing that the Benchmark is no longer representative. 


 “Benchmark Transition
Notice” shall have the meaning specified in Article 14(a)(iii). 
 “Compounded SOFR” shall mean
the compounded average of SOFRs for a one-month period, with the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate (which may include compounding in arrears with a lookback and/or suspension
period as a mechanism to determine the interest amount payable prior to the end of each Pricing Rate Period) being established by Buyer in accordance with: 
  

	 	(1)	 the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate selected or recommended by the Relevant
Governmental Body for determining compounded SOFR; provided that, 


  

	 	(2)	 if, and to the extent that, Buyer determines that Compounded SOFR cannot be determined in accordance with
clause (1) above, then the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate, that Buyer determines are substantially consistent with at least two (2) currently outstanding U.S. dollar-denominated repurchase
facilities or similar structured finance arrangements at such time for similar assets to the Purchased Assets (as a result of amendment or as originally executed); 



  
 3 













 provided, further, that if Buyer decides that any such rate, methodology or convention
determined in accordance with clause (1) or clause (2) is not administratively feasible for Buyer, then Compounded SOFR shall be deemed unable to be determined for purposes of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement.” 

“ISDA Definitions” shall mean the 2006 ISDA Definitions published by the International Swaps and Derivatives
Association, Inc. or any successor thereto, as amended or supplemented from time to time, or any successor definitional booklet for interest rate derivatives published from time to time.

 6

made subsequent to the date hereof:

Reserve Requirements, other reserves, 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 that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Benchmark hereunder; or 
 (iii)
shall impose on Buyer any other condition; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount that
Buyer deems, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, to be material, of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions or to reduce any amount receivable under the Transaction Documents in respect thereof; then, in any such case,
Seller shall promptly pay Buyer, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable; provided, however, that any such determination by Buyer and imposition of such
increased costs shall be applied to all sellers under similar repurchase facilities with Buyer. Such notification as to the calculation of any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and shall be
prima facie evidence of such additional amounts. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Assets.”
