that would otherwise require a Rating Agency Confirmation shall require the consent of the Note A-1 Holder, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.


 


For the purposes of this
Agreement, if any Rating Agency (1) waives, declines or refuses, in writing, to review or otherwise engage any request for a confirmation
hereunder from such Rating Agency that a proposed action will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then
current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, or (2) does not reply to such request or responds
in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency
Confirmation and the related timing, notice and other applicable provisions set forth in the Servicing Agreement and the Non-Lead
Servicing Agreement, as applicable, have been satisfied, then for such request only, the condition that such confirmation by such
Rating Agency (only) be obtained will be deemed not to apply for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, any such
waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any request for such confirmation hereunder shall not be deemed
a waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any subsequent request for such Rating Agency Confirmation hereunder
and the condition for such Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to this Agreement for any subsequent request shall apply regardless
of any previous waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in such prior request.

fee payable to the Master Servicer under the Servicing Agreement.

of the Mortgage Loan.   (a) Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject in each case to the specific
terms of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced as follows:


 


(i)          from

Each Holder agrees to
reasonably cooperate with each Servicer with respect to its exercise of its rights and obligations under the Servicing Agreement.


 


(b)          The
Note A-1 PSA and the Note A-2 PSA shall contain terms and conditions that are customary for securitization transactions involving
assets similar to the Mortgage Loan and that are otherwise (i) required by the Code relating to the tax elections of the Note A-1
Trust Fund amd the Note A-2 Trust Fund, (ii) required by law or changes in any law, rule or regulation or (iii) requested by the
Rating Agencies rating the Note A-1 Securitization or the Note A-1 Securitization. In addition, the Note A-1 PSA and the Note A-2

the Master Servicer and Special Servicer for the Note A-1 Securitization as long as each such party is a Qualified Servicer.


 


(c)          Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the
appointment of the Master Servicer and the Lead Trustee by the Depositor and the appointment of the Special Servicer by the
Directing Holder and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the
servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Agreement. Each Holder hereby appoints the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer and the Lead Trustee as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required
with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Servicing Agreement (subject at
all times to the rights of the Holders as set forth herein and in such Servicing Agreement).


 


(d)          If,
at any time the Lead Note is no longer in a Securitization, the Note A-1 Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant
to a servicing agreement that is substantially similar to the Servicing Agreement (and, if the Non-Lead Note is in a Securitization,
subject to receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agencies that


 






    -13-


    


    

 


were engaged by the Depositor to rate such Securitization)
and all references herein to the “Servicing Agreement” shall mean such subsequent Servicing Agreement; provided,
however, that until a replacement Servicing Agreement has been entered into (and such written confirmation has been obtained),
the Note A-1 Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Servicing Agreement as if such
agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan; provided, further, however,
that until a replacement Servicing Agreement is in place, the actual servicing of the Mortgage Loan may be performed by any Qualified
Servicer appointed by the Note A-1 Holder and does not have to be performed by the service providers set forth under the Servicing
Agreement that was previously in effect.


 


(e)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein (including Sections 4 and 13(a)), each Servicing Agreement shall provide
that the Servicer shall be required to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard as set
forth in such Servicing Agreement, and any Holder who is not the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower shall be deemed a third-party
beneficiary of such provisions of the Servicing Agreement that run to the benefit of such Holder. It is understood that the Non-Lead
Note Holder may separately appoint a servicer for its Non-Lead Note, by itself or together with other assets, but any such servicer
will have no responsibility hereunder and shall be compensated solely by the Non-Lead Note Holder from funds payable to it hereunder
or otherwise.


 


(f)          The
Holders acknowledge that the Servicer is to comply with this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Documents in connection with the servicing
of the Mortgage Loan.


 


(g)          If
any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”), within the
meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the
Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified
mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property)
acquired by or on behalf of the Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu
of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so
that the interest of the pro rata share of each Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure
property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any
provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Borrower, or exercise or refrain from
exercising any powers or rights that the Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would
constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the
regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC
that includes any Note (or any portion thereof). Each Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected
by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.


 


(h)          In
the event that one of the Notes is included in a REMIC, the other Holder shall not be required to reimburse such Holder or any
other Person for payment of any taxes imposed on such REMIC or Advances therefor or for any interest on such Advance or for


 






    -14-


    


    

 


deficits
in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, nor shall any disbursement
or payment otherwise distributable to the other Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.


 


3.          Priority
of Notes.   Note A-1 and Note A-1 shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any of Note A-1 or Note A-2
shall have priority or preference over any portion of the other Note or security therefor. Except for the Excluded Amounts, all
amounts tendered by the Borrower or otherwise available for payment on the Mortgage Loan, whether received in the form of Monthly
Payments, a balloon payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other instrument serving as
security on the Mortgage Loan, proceeds under title, hazard or other insurance policies or awards or settlements in respect of
condemnation proceedings or similar exercise of the power of eminent domain shall be distributed by the Master Servicer and applied
to Note A-1 and Note A-2 on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.


 


The Servicing Agreement
may provide for the application of Penalty Charges paid in respect of the Mortgage Loan to be used to (i) pay the Master Servicer,
the Trustee or the Special Servicer for interest accrued on any Property Advances, (ii) to pay the parties to any Securitization
for interest accrued on any P&I Advance, (iii) to pay certain other expenses incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan and
(iv) to pay to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation, except that, for so long as
any Note is not included in a Securitization, any Penalty Charges allocated to such Note that are not applied pursuant to clauses
(i)-(iii) above shall be remitted to the respective Holder and shall not be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer
without the express consent of such Holder.


 


4.          Workout.   Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreement and Section 13
of this Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Note Holder, or any Servicer,
in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the Mortgage Loan
Principal Balance is decreased, (ii) the Mortgage Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on Note A-1
or Note A-2 are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan,
such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal
priorities of Note A-1 and Note A-2 as described in Section 3.


 


5.          Accounts;
Payment Procedure.   The Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain
the Collection Account or Collection Accounts, as applicable. Each of the Note A-1 Holder and the Note A-2 Holder hereby directs
the Master Servicer, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 hereof, and subject to the terms of the Servicing
Agreement, (i) to deposit into the applicable Collection Account within the time period specified in the Servicing Agreement all
payments received with respect to the Mortgage Loan and (ii) to remit from the applicable Collection Account for deposit or credit
on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date all payments received with respect to and allocable to Note A-1 and Note A-2
by wire transfer to accounts maintained by the Note A-1 Holder and the Note A-2 Holder, respectively; provided that delinquent
payments received by


 






    -15-


    


    

 


the Master Servicer after the related Master Servicer Remittance Date shall be remitted by the Master Servicer
to such accounts within the time period specified in the Servicing Agreement.


 


If any Servicer holding
or having distributed any amount received or collected in respect of Note A-1 or Note A-2 determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction
orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of Note A-1 or Note A-2 must, pursuant to any insolvency,
bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Borrower or paid to the Note A-1 Holder, the Note
A-2 Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Servicer
shall be required to distribute any portion thereof to the Note A-1 Holder or the Note A-2 Holder, as applicable, and the Note
A-1 Holder or the Note A-2 Holder, as applicable, shall promptly on demand repay to such Servicer the portion thereof that has
been distributed to the Note A-1 Holder or the Note A-2 Holder, as applicable, together with interest thereon at such rate, if
any, as such Servicer shall have been required to pay to the Borrower, the Note A-1 Holder, the Note A-2 Holder, any Servicer or
such other person or entity with respect thereto. Each of the Note A-1 Holder and the Note A-2 Holder agrees that if at any time
it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof,
it will promptly remit such excess to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder
from the Note A-1 Holder or the Note A-2 Holder, as applicable, with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due
to the Note A-1 Holder or the Note A-2 Holder, as applicable, under the Mortgage Loan, provided, that the obligations of
the Note A-1 Holder and the Note A-2 Holder under this Section 5 are separate and distinct obligations from one another
and in no event shall any Servicer enforce the obligations of any Holder against any other Holder. The obligations of the Note
A-1 Holder and the Note A-2 Holder under this Section 5 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations and
each Servicer shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of these provisions.


 


6.          Limitation
on Liability.   Subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, no Holder (including the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer on its behalf) shall have any liability to any other Holder with respect to any Note, except (1) with respect
to the Advance reimbursement provisions set forth in Section 17 and (2) with respect to losses actually suffered due to
the gross negligence, willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement on the part of such Holder (including the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer on its behalf, except that the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s liability
is further limited or expanded as set forth in the Servicing Agreement).


 


7.          Representations
of the Holders.   (a) Each of the initial Holders hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with each
other Holder that, as of the date hereof:


 


(i)         It
is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State under which it is organized.


 


(ii)  
     The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Holder, and performance of, and compliance
with, the terms of this Agreement by such Holder, will not violate its organizational documents or constitute a default (or
an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the breach


 






    -16-


    


    

 


of, any
material agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or that is applicable to it or any of its assets, in each case
which materially and adversely affect its ability to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 


(iii)       Such
Holder has the full power and authority to enter into and consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, has duly
authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.


 


(iv)       This
Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Holder enforceable against such Holder in accordance with its terms,
except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability
is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and
contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law.


 


(v)    
    It has the right to enter into this Agreement without the consent of any third party.


 


(vi)        It
is the holder of the respective Note for its own account in the ordinary course of its business.


 


(vii)       It
has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person, that may be entitled to any commission or compensation
in connection with the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.


 


(viii)       It
is a Qualified Transferee.


 


8.    
      Independent Analyses of each Holder.


 


Each Holder
acknowledges that, except for the representations made in Section 7, it has, independently and without reliance upon
the other Holder and based on such documents and information as such Holder has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and decision to purchase its respective Note. Each Holder hereby acknowledges that the other Holder shall have no
responsibility for (i) the collectability of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the validity, enforceability or legal effect of any of
the Mortgage Loan Documents or the title insurance policy or policies or any survey furnished or to be furnished in
connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, (iii) the validity, sufficiency or effectiveness of the lien created or
to be created by the Mortgage Loan Documents, or (iv) the financial condition of the Borrower. Each Holder assumes all risk
of loss in connection with its respective Note for reasons other than gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this
Agreement by any other Holder or negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith by any Servicer.


 


9.          No
Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right.   Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action
taken pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute among any Holder (or the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee on
its behalf) and the other Holder a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. Each Holder (or the Master


 






    -17-


    


    

 


Servicer,
Special Servicer or Trustee on its behalf) shall have no obligation whatsoever to offer to the other Holder the opportunity to
purchase notes or interests relating to any future loans originated by such Holder or any of its Affiliates, and if any Holder
chooses to offer to any of the other Holder, the opportunity to purchase notes or interests in any future mortgage loans originated
by such Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Holder chooses, in its
sole and absolute discretion. None of the Holders shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Holder any notes
or interests in any future loans originated by any other Holder or any of its Affiliates.


 


10.          Not
a Security.   None of Note A-1 or Note A-1 shall be deemed to be a security within the meaning of the Securities
Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.


 


11.          Other
Business Activities of the Holders.   Each Holder acknowledges that the other Holder may make loans or otherwise
extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Affiliate of the Borrower, and receive payments on such
other loans or extensions of credit to any Affiliate of the Borrower and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without
accountability, but only if none of the foregoing violate the Mortgage Loan Documents, in the same manner as if this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.


 


12.          Transfer
of Notes.   (a) Each Holder may Transfer up to 49% (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in its
Note whether or not the related transferee is a Qualified Transferee without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Each Holder shall
not Transfer more than 49% (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in its Note unless (i) prior to a Securitization of
any Note, the other Holder has consented to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee shall thereafter be deemed to
be a “Qualified Transferee” for all purposes under this Agreement, (ii) after a Securitization of any
Note, a Rating Agency Confirmation has been received with respect to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee
shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Qualified Transferee” for all purposes under this Agreement, (iii)
such Transfer is to a Qualified Transferee, or (iv) such Transfer is in connection with a sale by a Securitization trust. Any
such transferee must assume in writing the obligations of the transferring Holder hereunder and agree to be bound by the
terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. Such proposed transferee (except in the case of Transfers
that are made in connection with a Securitization) shall also remake each of the representations and warranties contained
herein for the benefit of the other Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the non-transferring Holder’s prior
consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Holder’s Note is in a Securitization,
without a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency that has been engaged by the Depositor to rate the securities
issued in connection with such Securitization, no Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note to the Borrower or an
Affiliate of the Borrower and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported transferee.


 


(b)          Except
for a Transfer made in connection with a Securitization, or a Transfer made by an initial Holder to an Affiliate, at least five
(5) days prior to a transfer of any Note, the transferring Holder shall provide to the other Holder and, if any Certificates are


 






    -18-


    


    

 


outstanding,
to the Rating Agencies, a certification that such transfer will be made in accordance with this Section 12, such certification
to include (1) the name and contact information of the transferee and (2) if applicable, a certification by the transferee that
it is a Qualified Transferee.


 


(c)          The
Holders acknowledge that any Rating Agency Confirmation may be granted or denied by the Rating Agencies in their sole and absolute
discretion and that such Rating Agencies may charge the transferring Holder customary fees in connection with providing such Rating
Agency Confirmation.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, each Holder may pledge or transfer (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity
(other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower) that has extended a credit facility to such Holder or has entered into
a repurchase agreement with such Holder and that, in each case, is either a Qualified Transferee or a financial institution whose
long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note
Pledgee”), or to a Person with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained, on terms and conditions
set forth in this Section 12(d), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to any Holder or any
Affiliate that controls such Holder that is secured by such Holder’s interest in its respective Note and is structured as
a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder on the condition that all applicable terms and conditions
of this Section 12 are complied with. A Note Pledgee that is not a Qualified Transferee may not take title to a Note without
a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice, if any, by the pledging Holder to the other Holder and the Servicer that a Pledge
has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), the other Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt
of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give such Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Holder in respect
of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Holder has actual knowledge and which notice shall be given simultaneously
with the giving of such notice to the pledging Holder; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) Business Days to cure
a default by the pledging Holder in respect of its obligations to the other Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be
obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement or the Servicing
Agreement (if the pledging Holder had the right to consent to such amendment, modification, waiver or termination pursuant to the
terms hereof) shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to be given if Note Pledgee shall fail to
respond to any request for consent to any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination within 10 days after request therefor;
(iv) that the other Holder shall accept any cure by such Note Pledgee of any default of the pledging Holder which such pledging
Holder has the right to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Holder; (v) that the other Holder or Servicer
shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such
certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the other Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection
Notice”) to the Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Holder is in default beyond any applicable cure periods
with respect to the pledging Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement or other
agreements relating to the Pledge between the pledging Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed
by the pledging Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee (or at
any time that


 






    -19-


    


    

 


pledging Holder otherwise
directs that such payment be made to Note Pledgee pursuant to a separate notice) shall be entitled to receive any payments that
any Servicer would otherwise be obligated to make to the pledging Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or any Servicing
Agreement. Any pledging Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases the other Holder and any Servicer from any liability
to the pledging Holder on account of the other Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed
by any Servicer or other Holder in good faith to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise
fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Holder (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral),
in accordance with applicable law, the pledge agreement, repurchase agreement or similar agreement between the pledging Holder
and the Note Pledgee and this Agreement. In such event, or if the pledging holder otherwise assigns its interests to the Note
Pledgee, the other Holder and the Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee (other than the Borrower or any
Affiliate of the Borrower) that is also a Qualified Transferee at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or
any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and such Person’s successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Holder’s
rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Transferee shall assume in writing
the obligations of the pledging Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral
by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under
this Section 12(d) shall remain effective as to any Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall
have notified such Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.


 


13.          Exercise
of Remedies by the Servicer.   (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement and subject
to the rights and consents, where required, of the Directing Holder, the Servicer shall have the sole and exclusive authority
with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without
limitation, the sole and exclusive authority to (i) modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, (ii) consent
to any action or failure to act by the Borrower or any party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, (iii) vote all claims with respect
to the Mortgage Loan in any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceedings and (iv) to take legal action to enforce or protect
the Holders’ interests with respect to the Mortgage Loan or to refrain from exercising any powers or rights under the Mortgage
Loan Documents, including the right at any time to call or waive any Events of Default, or accelerate or refrain from accelerating
the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action, and the Holders shall have no voting, consent or other rights whatsoever
with respect to the Servicer’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan
other than as provided in the Servicing Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer
shall have the sole and exclusive authority to make Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan. Except as otherwise provided
in this Agreement, each Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys
to the Servicer the rights, if any, that such Holder has to (A) call or cause the Servicer to call an Event of Default under the
Mortgage Loan, or (B) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Borrower, including, without limitation,
filing or causing the Lead Note Holder or such Servicer to file any bankruptcy petition against the Borrower. Each Holder shall,
from time to time, 


 






    -20-


    


    

 


execute such documents as any Servicer shall reasonably require to evidence such assignment with respect to
the rights described in clause (iii) of the first sentence in this Section 13(a).


 


(b)          The
Lead Servicer and the related Trustee shall not have any fiduciary duty to the Non-Lead Note Holder in connection with the administration
of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Servicer and the related Trustee from their respective obligation
under the Servicing Agreement to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein).


 


(c)          The
Holders hereby acknowledge that the Servicing Agreement shall provide that, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
in the next sentence, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, if the Special Servicer determines to sell the
Defaulted Mortgage Loan (or the Lead Note), it will be required to sell the entire Defaulted Mortgage Loan as a single whole loan
(i.e., the Lead Note and the Non-Lead Note). Any such sale of the entire Defaulted Mortgage Loan is subject to the satisfaction
of the following:


 


(i)          
The Non-Lead Note Holder has provided written consent to such sale; or


 


(ii)          The
Special Servicer has delivered the following notices and information to the Non-Lead Note Holder:


 


(1)          at
least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Defaulted Mortgage Loan;


 


(2)          at
least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received
by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale;


 


(3)          at
least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in
the Servicing File reasonably requested by the Non-Lead Note Holder; and


 


(4)          until
the sale is completed and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Directing
Holder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases
or other documents
that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale.


 


The Non-Lead Note Holder
may waive any delivery or timing requirements set forth above only for itself. Subject to the foregoing, each of the Lead Note
Holder, the Directing Holder, the Non-Lead Note Holder and the Non-Directing Holder shall be permitted to submit an offer at any
sale of the Defaulted Mortgage Loan (unless such Person is the Borrower or an agent or Affiliate of the Borrower).


 


The Non-Lead Note Holder
hereby appoints the Lead Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled
with an




 






    -21-


    


    

 


interest,
and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the Non-Lead Note. The Non-Lead
Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Note Holder, the Non-Lead Note Holder shall execute and deliver
to or at the direction of Lead Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Note Holder may reasonably
request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following such request, and shall
deliver the original Non-Lead Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Note Holder in connection with the consummation
of any such sale.


 


The authority of the
Lead Note Holder to sell the Non-Lead Note, and the obligations of the Non-Lead Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments
or deliver the Non-Lead Note upon request of the Lead Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect
upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Note is repurchased by BSP, as the initial Note A-1 Holder from the trust fund established
under the Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by the initial Note A-1 Holder
with respect to the Lead Note or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by the initial Note A-1 Holder
with respect to the Lead Note upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the exercise by the Servicer on behalf of the Holders of its rights under this Section
13 shall be subject in all respects to any section of the Servicing Agreement governing REMIC administration, and in no event
shall the Servicer be permitted to take any action or refrain from taking any action if taking or failing to take such action,
as the case may be, would violate the laws of any applicable jurisdiction, breach the Mortgage Loan Documents or be inconsistent
with the Servicing Standard or violate any other provisions of the Servicing Agreement or violate the REMIC provisions of the Code
or any regulations promulgated thereunder, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 2(g) of this Agreement.


 


14.          Rights
of the Directing Holder.   (a) The Directing
Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Directing Holder hereunder and the rights and powers
granted to the “Directing Holder,” “Controlling Class Certificateholder,” “Controlling Class Representative”
or similar party under, and as defined in, the Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loan. In addition, the Directing
Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to a Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loan and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed
consent of the Special Servicer, and, except as set forth below (i) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to take any Major
Action unless it has obtained the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (ii) the Special Servicer shall not be permitted
to consent to the Master Servicer’s taking any Major Action nor will the Special Servicer itself be permitted to take any
Major Action as to which the Directing Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or 30 days with respect to
an Acceptable Insurance Default) after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested
by the Directing Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Directing Holder in order to make a judgment with
respect to such Major Action. The Directing Holder may also direct the Special 


 






    -22-


    


    

 


Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such
other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Directing Holder may deem advisable, subject to the terms of the Servicing
Agreement.


 


(b)          If
the Directing Holder fails to notify the Special Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Action within ten
(10) Business Days (or 30 days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after delivery to the Directing Holder by the applicable
Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Action together with any information requested by the Directing Holder as may be
necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Directing Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten
(10) Business Day (or 30 days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) period, such Major Action shall be deemed to have
been approved by the Directing Holder.


 


(c)          In
the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Servicing
Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any
other matter requiring consent of the Directing Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Holders (as a collective whole)
and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Directing Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Directing Holder’s response.


 


(d)          No
objection, direction or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Servicing Agreement, this
Agreement, the REMIC provisions of the Code or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance
with the Servicing Standard or expose the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to liability, or materially expand the scope
of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities under the Servicing Agreement.


 


(e)          The
Directing Holder shall have no liability to the other Holder or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the
taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Servicing
Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith
or gross negligence. The Holders agree that the Directing Holder may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from
giving consents, that favor the interests of one Holder over the other Holder, and that the Directing Holder may have special relationships
and interests that conflict with the interests of another Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
on the part of the Directing Holder agree to take no action against the Directing Holder or any of its officers, directors, employees,
principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that the Directing Holder will not be deemed to
have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly
disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having
failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Holder.


 


15.          Appointment
of Special Servicer.   Subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, the Directing Holder shall have the
right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the
Mortgage Loan and




 






    -23-


    


    

 


appoint
a Qualified Servicer as the replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. The Directing Holder shall designate a Person to serve
as Special Servicer by delivering to the other Holder and the parties to the Note A-1 PSA and the Note A-2 PSA a written notice
stating such designation and by satisfying the other conditions required under the Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation,
a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Servicing Agreement), if any.


 


16.          Rights
of the Non-Directing Holder.   (a) The Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Servicer shall be required:


 


(i)          to
provide copies of the same notices, information and reports that it is required to provide to the Directing Holder pursuant to
the Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Actions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset
Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan to the Non-Directing Holder (but without regard to whether or not the Directing Holder
actually has lost any rights to receive such information as a result of a Consultation Termination Event), within the same time
frame as specified with respect to the Directing Holder (but without regard to whether or not the Directing Holder actually has
lost any rights to receive such information as a result of a Consultation Termination Event), provided, however,
that if the Non-Lead Note has been included in a Securitization, then for any information for which the Special Servicer would
be required to provide to the related Non-Directing Holder, the Special Servicer shall provide such notice to the master servicer
of the other Securitization transaction, who shall forward such notice as and when required under the terms of the related Securitization
documents; and


 


(ii)          to
consult with the Non-Directing Holder on a strictly non-binding basis, if, having received such notices, information and reports,
such Non-Directing Holder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Action or the implementation of any recommended
actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such
Non-Directing Holder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to the
Non-Directing Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required
to be provided to the Directing Holder, the Servicer shall no longer be obligated to consult with the Non-Directing Holder, whether
or not the Non-Directing Holder has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless the Servicer proposes a new course
of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall
be begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto).


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing non-binding consultation rights of the Non-Directing Holder, the Servicer may take any Major Action or any action
set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Servicer determines
that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Holders.


 






    -24-


    


    

 








(c)          In
addition to the foregoing non-binding consultation rights, the Non-Directing Holder shall have the right to annual conference calls
with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.


 


(d)          In
no event shall the Servicer be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by the Non-Directing
Holder.


 


(e)          Any
Non-Directing Holder that is the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower shall not be entitled to any of the rights set forth
in this Section 16.


 


17.          Advances;
Reimbursement of Advances.   (a) From time to time, (i) pursuant to terms of the Servicing Agreement, the Lead
Servicer and/or the related Trustee may be obligated to make (1) Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan or a Mortgaged
Property and (2) P&I Advances with respect to the Lead Note and (ii) pursuant to the terms of the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement,
the Non-Lead Master Servicer and/or the related Trustee may be obligated to make P&I Advances with respect to the Non-Lead
Note. The Lead Servicer and/or the related Trustee will not be required to make any P&I Advance with respect to the Non-Lead
Note and the Non-Lead Master Servicer and/or the related Trustee will not be required to make any P&I Advance with respect
to any Lead Note, any other Non-Lead Note or any Property Advance. The Lead Servicer, the Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Trustee
will be entitled to interest on any Advance made in the manner and from the sources provided in the Note A-1 PSA or the Note A-2
PSA, as applicable.


 


(b)          The
Lead Servicer and the related Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for a Property Advance, first from
the Collection Account established with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and then, if such Property Advance is a Nonrecoverable
Advance, if such funds on deposit in the Collection Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization
as provided in the Servicing Agreement.


 


(c)          To
the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to the Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the
Lead Servicer for any Property Advance and/or interest thereon and the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee, as applicable,
obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for a Property Advance or interest
thereon, the Non-Lead Note Holder (including the Securitization into which the Non-Lead Note is deposited) shall be required
to, promptly following notice from the Lead Servicer, pay to the Lead Securitization for its pro rata share of such
Property Advance and/or interest thereon
at the Reimbursement Rate. In addition, the Non-Lead Note Holder (including the Securitization into which the Non-Lead Note is
deposited) shall promptly reimburse the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee for the Non-Lead Note Holder’s pro rata
share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which
the Lead Securitization or any of the parties thereto are entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement
(to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to the Mortgage Loan are insufficient for reimbursement
of such amounts).


 






    -25-


    


    

 


(d)          The
parties to each of the Note A-1 PSA and the Note A-2 PSA shall each be entitled to make their own recoverability determination
with respect to a P&I Advance based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Note A-1 PSA and the
Note A-2 PSA, as applicable.


 


(e)          If
the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee elects to defer the reimbursement of a Property Advance in accordance with the terms of
the Servicing Agreement, the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee shall also defer its reimbursement of the Non-Lead Note share
from the Non-Lead Note Holder.


 


18.          Provisions
Relating to Securitization.


 


(a)          New
Notes. For so long as BSP or an Affiliate of BSP (an “Initial Note Holder”) is the owner of any Notes, such
Initial Note Holder shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Borrower to execute
amended and restated notes (“Amended Notes”) or additional notes (“New Notes”) reallocating
the principal of the Note or Notes that it owns (but in no case any Note that it does not then own) among Amended Notes and New
Notes or severing a Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the
then outstanding principal balance of the Note or Notes being amended or created, provided that (i) the aggregate principal
balance of the Amended Notes and New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the principal balance of the Amended Notes
and New Notes prior to such amendments, (ii) all New Notes continue to have the same interest rate as Amended Note of which it
was a part prior to such amendments, (iii) all New Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis with the Amended
Notes and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement and (iv) the Initial
Note Holder holding the New Notes shall notify each other Holder, as applicable, and, if any other Note has been included in a
securitization, the parties under each applicable pooling and servicing agreement, in writing of such modified allocations and
principal amounts. In connection with the foregoing, (1) the Master Servicer is hereby authorized to execute amendments to the
Loan Agreement and this Agreement (or to amend and restate the Loan Agreement and this Agreement) on behalf of any or all of the
Holders solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal or such severing of a Note, (2) if a Note is severed
into “component” notes, such component notes shall each have their same rights as the respective original Note, (3)
the definition of the term “Securitization” and all of the related defined terms may be amended (and new terms added,
as necessary) to reflect the New Notes and (4) if BSP is the current Directing Holder, it may designate the holder for of a different
Note to be the Directing Holder. Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be required for any amendments to this Agreement required
to facilitate the terms of this Section 18(a). The Initial Note Holder whose Note is being reallocated or split pursuant
to this Section 18(a) shall reimburse the other Holder for all costs and expenses incurred by the other Holder in connection
with the reallocation or split.

(i)     
     the applicable master servicer and trustee for such Securitization shall be required to notify
the master servicer, special servicer and trustee of each other Securitization of the amount of any P&I Advance it has
made with respect to the Note included in such Securitization within two Business Days of making such advance;


 


(ii)          if
the applicable master servicer, special servicer or trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, or any outstanding
P&I Advance previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a nonrecoverable advance, the master servicer shall provide the
other servicers written notice of such determination within 2 Business Days after such determination was made;


 


(iii)         in
the event the Non-Lead Note Holder is responsible for its proportionate share of any Nonrecoverable Advances (or any other portion
of a Nonrecoverable Advance) (and advance interest thereon) or other fee or expense pursuant to Section 17, and funds received
with respect to the Non-Lead Note are insufficient to cover such amounts, (x) the related master servicer will be required
to pay the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Lead Trustee, as applicable, out of general funds in the collection account (or
equivalent account) established under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement and (y) if the Lead Servicing Agreement permits the
Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Lead Trustee to pay itself from the Lead Securitization Trust’s general account then
the master servicer under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement will be required to reimburse the Lead Securitization Trust out
of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement;


 


(iv)         each
of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be indemnified (as and to the extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required

and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses, incurred in connection with any PSA that relate solely to its servicing
of the Mortgage Loan, as applicable, and the master servicer under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement will be required to
reimburse the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Lead Trustee, as applicable, out of general funds in the collection account
(or equivalent account) established under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement;


 


(v)          each

of such determination within two Business Days after such determination was made;


 


(iii)         the
Master Servicer shall remit all payments received (or advanced) with respect to the Non-Lead Note, net of its Servicing Fee and

Note Holder) will be required, upon prior written request, to provide to the depositor and the trustee for any prior Securitization

to the Servicing Agreement are required to reasonably cooperate with the related asset representations reviewer or other applicable
party to the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement in connection with such asset review, including with respect to providing access to related
underlying documents to the extent the asset representations reviewer or such other applicable party to the Non-Lead Servicing
Agreement has not obtained such documents from the Non-Lead Note Holder and such documents are in the possession of the applicable
party to the Servicing Agreement;


 


(xv)          if
any “servicer termination event” on the part of the Special Servicer shall occur and be continuing that affects the
Holder of the Non-Lead Note, then, so long as the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated, the Holder of Non-Lead Note or
the trustee under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall be entitled to direct

the Trustee to terminate the Special
Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan; a replacement Special Servicer shall be appointed in accordance with the Servicing
Agreement; any Special Servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan cannot at any time
be (without the prior written consent of the Holder of the Non-Lead Note) the person (or Affiliate thereof) that was terminated
at the direction of the Holder of the Non-Lead Note; and


 


(xvi)        have
provisions materially consistent with those set forth in the Note A-2 PSA with respect to:


 


(A)          
servicing transfer events that would result in the transfer of the Mortgage Loan to special servicing status;


 


(B)          
the authority of the servicers in the Note A-2 Securitization to grant or agree or consent to material modifications, waivers and
amendments to the Mortgage Loan, or to approve material assignments and assumptions or material additional indebtedness in connection
with the Mortgage Loan;


 


(C)          
requirements to obtain an appraisal or appraisal update following a transfer of the Mortgage Loan to special servicing status and
periodic updates thereof;


 


(D)          
duties of the special servicer in respect of foreclosure and the management of REO property; and


 


(E)          
subject to various adjustments and caps provided for in the Note A-1 PSA (which shall be substantially similar to those set forth
in the Note A-2 PSA), primary servicing, special servicing, workout and liquidation fees (and, in any event, the fees at which
such compensation accrue or are determined shall not exceed 0.0025%, 0.25%, 1.00% and 1.00%, respectively),


 


provided,
however, that (1) this clause (xv) shall not be construed to prohibit differences in timing, control or consultation triggers
or thresholds, terminology, allocation of ministerial duties between multiple servicers or other service providers or certificate
holder or investor voting or consent thresholds, or to prohibit or restrict additional approval, consent, consultation, notice
or rating agency confirmation requirements; and (2) in the event of any conflict between this sentence and any other provision
of this Agreement, such other provision of the Agreement shall control.


 


(d)          If
any provision required to be included in the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement or the Lead Securitization PSA is not included therein
as required in this Agreement, each Holder agrees that each such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated as a provision of
and made a part of the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement or Lead Securitization PSA, as the case may be.
