The Lower-Tier REMIC
will hold the Mortgage Loans (exclusive of Excess Interest) and certain other related assets subject to this Agreement, and will
issue (i) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests set forth in the table below (the “Lower-Tier Regular Interests”),
as classes of regular interests in the Lower-Tier REMIC and (ii) the Class LTR Interest as the sole class of residual interests

Corrected Mortgage Loan and with respect to any particular workout (assuming, for the purposes of this calculation, that such
Corrected Mortgage Loan continues to perform throughout its term in accordance with the terms of the related workout) shall be
reduced by the amount of any and all related Offsetting Modification Fees received by the Special Servicer as additional servicing
compensation relating to such Corrected Mortgage Loan; provided that the Special Servicer shall be entitled to collect
such Workout Fees from the Trust until such time it has been fully paid such reduced amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the Mortgage
Loan Seller will be required to pay a Workout Fee in connection with a repurchase or substitution to the extent the Special Servicer
was entitled to such a fee and such fee was unpaid immediately prior to such repurchase or substitution or was previously paid
by the Trust and was not reimbursed by the related Borrower immediately prior to such repurchase or substitution. In furtherance
of the foregoing, upon a Specially Serviced Loan becoming a Corrected Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall provide the Master
Servicer with a calculation of the total amount of Workout Fees expected to be payable by the Trust with respect to such Corrected
Mortgage Loan throughout its term (which calculation shall be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer) and the total amount
of related Offsetting Modification Fees received by the Special Servicer.

With respect to Serviced

with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, any assignments or other transfer documents referred to in the third preceding paragraph
as being in favor of the Trustee shall instead be in favor of the applicable Other Trustee and (1) if the Custodian is not also

Documents specified above to the successor Custodian.


 


With respect to the Mortgage
Loans, within 45 days after the Closing Date or, without limiting the requirements of the third paragraph of (b), after
such later date on which the Mortgage Loan Seller has received all the missing recording/filing information, each Mortgage Loan

Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-B1” (and with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan,
the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders) in the appropriate public recording office (a) each Assignment of Mortgage referred
to in Section 2.01(a)(iii) which has not yet been submitted for recording and (b) each Reassignment of Assignment of Leases, Rents
and Profits referred to in Section 2.01(a)(viii)(B) (if not otherwise included in the related Assignment of Mortgage) which

recording office to the Custodian or its designee (or to the Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee as an alternative) following
recording, and each such document shall reflect that the file copy thereof should be returned to the Custodian or its designee
(or to the Mortgage Loan Seller or its


 






    -162-


     


    

 


designee
as an alternative) following filing; provided that in those instances where the public recording office retains the original
Assignment of Mortgage or Reassignment of Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits, the Custodian shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain therefrom a certified copy of the recorded original, at the expense of the Depositor. In the event that any
such document or instrument in respect of any Mortgage Loan is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because
of a defect therein, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute thereof
or cure or cause the curing of such defect, as the case may be, and shall thereafter deliver the substitute or corrected document
to or at the direction of the Custodian or such other third party vendor as retained by the Mortgage Loan Seller for recording

In the event that any Mortgage Loan Seller receives the original recorded or filed copy, each Mortgage Loan Seller will, promptly
upon receipt of the original recorded or filed copy (and in no event later than five Business Days following such receipt) deliver
such original to the Custodian, with evidence of filing or recording thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Section 2.01, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original Mortgage, Assignment of
Mortgage, Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits or Reassignment of Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits, if applicable, after
any has been recorded, the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon delivery to the Custodian of a copy of the recorded original of such Mortgage, Assignment
of Mortgage, Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits or Reassignment of Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits, if applicable.


 


If a Mortgage Loan Seller
cannot deliver, or cause to be delivered, as to any Mortgage Loan, the original or a copy of the related lender’s title insurance
policy referred to in Section 2.01(a)(vii) solely because such policy has not yet been issued, the delivery requirements
of this Section 2.01 will be deemed to be satisfied as to such missing item, and such missing item will be deemed to have
been included in the related Mortgage File by delivery to the Custodian of a binder marked as binding and countersigned by the
title insurer or its authorized agent (which may be a pro forma or specimen title insurance policy which has been accepted
or approved as binding in writing by the related title insurance company) or an acknowledged closing instruction or escrow letter,
and the Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to deliver to the Custodian, promptly following the receipt thereof, the original
related lender’s title insurance policy (or a copy thereof). Copies of recorded or filed Assignments of Mortgage, Reassignments
of Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits and UCC assignments of financing statements shall be held by the Custodian.


 


Subject to the third
preceding paragraph, all original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans which are not delivered to the Custodian are and shall
be held by the Depositor or the Master Servicer (or a sub-servicer on its behalf), as the case may be, in trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders and, insofar as they also relate to the Serviced Companion Loans, on behalf of and for the benefit of
the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders. In the event that any such original document, or in the case of a Serviced Companion
Loan, the original Mortgage Note, is required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File in order to
effectuate the purposes of this Agreement, such document shall be delivered promptly to the Custodian.

and warrants that it has directed, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers pursuant to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
to deliver to and deposit with or cause to be delivered to and deposited with, (i) the Custodian, on or before the Closing Date,
subject to Section 2.01(a), for each Mortgage Loan so assigned the Mortgage Note (or a copy of the Mortgage Note evidencing
each related Serviced Companion Loan), the original or a copy of the related Mortgage, the original or a copy of the title policy
for each Mortgage Loan (subject to the second-to-last paragraph under Section 2.01(a)), a copy of the related ground lease

to Section 2.01(c) or the Mortgage Loan is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) of any letters of credit held by the lender as
beneficiary or assigned as security for the Mortgage Loan, and, except as otherwise provided in the following paragraph, within
30 days following the Closing Date, the remaining applicable documents referred to in Section 2.01(a) for each such Mortgage
Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, in each case, with copies to the Master Servicer and (ii) the Master Servicer, on or before the
Closing Date, all documents and records that are part of each applicable Servicing File. If the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller

deliver a copy or duplicate original of such Mortgage Note, together with an affidavit certifying that the original thereof has
been lost or destroyed and an indemnification in favor of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Custodian.

Loan Seller or the Depositor cannot deliver, or cause to be delivered, as to any Mortgage Loan (subject to any qualifications provided
for herein or in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the original or a
copy of any of the documents and/or instruments referred to in Section 2.01(a)(ii), Section 2.01(a)(iii), (a)(v),
Section 2.01(a)(viii), Section 2.01(a)(xiv) and Section 2.01(a)(xvi) and the UCC financing statements and
UCC assignments of financing statements referred to in Section 2.01(a)(xiii), with evidence of recording or filing thereon,
solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered
for recordation or filing, or because such original recorded or filed document has been lost or returned from the recording or
filing office and subsequently lost, as the case may be, the delivery requirements of Section 2.01 shall be deemed to have
been satisfied as to such missing item, and such missing item shall be deemed to have been included in the related Mortgage File,
provided that a copy of such document or instrument (without evidence of recording or filing thereon, but certified (which
certificate may relate to multiple documents and/or instruments) by the applicable public recording or filing office, the applicable
title insurance company or the related Mortgage Loan Seller to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for
recording or filing, as the case may be) has been delivered to the Custodian within 60 days after the Closing Date, and either
the original of such missing document or instrument, or a copy thereof, with evidence of recording or filing, as the case may be,
thereon, is delivered to the Custodian within 180 days after the Closing Date (or within such longer period after the Closing Date
so long as the related Mortgage Loan Seller has provided the Custodian with evidence of such recording or filing, as the case may
be, or has certified to the Custodian as to the occurrence of such recording or filing, as the case may be, and is, as certified
to the Custodian no less often than quarterly, in good faith attempting to obtain from the

of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall hold (or the applicable Other Servicer with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan
will hold) the original of each such document in trust on behalf of the Trust (or the applicable Other Trust with respect to any
Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in order to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trust (or the applicable Other Trust with
respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the delivery
requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01 of this Agreement by delivering the original
of each such document to the Master Servicer (or the applicable Other Servicer with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan)
who shall forward a copy of the applicable document to the Custodian (or the custodian in the applicable Other Securitization with
respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan). The applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment
of such letter of credit (which amendment shall change the beneficiary of the letter of credit to the Trust (or the applicable
Other Trust with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in care of the Master Servicer (or the applicable Other Servicer with
respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan)) required in order for the Master Servicer (or the applicable Other Servicer with respect
to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trust (or the applicable Other Trust with
respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan). In the event that the documents specified in Section 2.01(a)(xx) of this Agreement
are missing with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan because the related assignment or amendment documents have not been completed,
the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall take all necessary steps to enable the Master Servicer to draw on the related letter
of credit on behalf of the Trust including, if necessary, drawing on the letter of credit in its own name pursuant to written instructions

has been transferred to the Trust and request a replacement comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may
be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the
Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement
as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter).

be delivered to the Master Servicer, and the documents referred to in clauses (iii), (iv)(B), (v)(B) and (viii)(B)
of Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement and the assignments of financing statements referred to in clause (xiii) of
Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement, which shall be delivered for filing or recording by the related Mortgage Loan Seller
as provided herein) referred to in Section 2.01(a) above (in the case of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(a)(iv),
Section 2.01(a)(vi), Section 2.01(a)(viii), Section 2.01(a)(ix), Section 2.01(a)(x), Section 2.01(a)(xi),
Section 2.01(a)(xii) through Section 2.01(a)(xvi) and Section 2.01(a)(xviii) through Section 2.01(a)(xx)
of this Agreement, as identified to it in writing as a document required to be delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller) and
any original recorded documents included in the delivery of a Mortgage File have been received, have been executed, appear to be
what they purport to be, purport to be recorded or filed (as applicable) and have not been torn in any materially adverse manner
or mutilated or otherwise defaced, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
In so doing, the Custodian may rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness
of any signature thereon. With respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall only be required to certify to each
of the Controlling Class Representative, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and each Mortgage Loan Seller that the document set forth in
Section 2.01(a)(i) has been received, subject to the preceding provisions of this Section 2.02.


 


If at the conclusion
of such review any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File have not been executed or received, have not been
recorded or filed (if required), are unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, appear not to be
what they purport to be or have been torn in any materially adverse manner or mutilated or otherwise defaced, the Custodian shall
promptly so notify (in the form attached as Exhibit M

to
this Agreement) the Trustee, the Directing Holder (but only if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing),
the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the related Mortgage Loan Seller by providing a written report, setting forth for each affected Mortgage Loan, with
particularity, the nature of the defective or missing document. The Depositor shall or shall cause the related Mortgage Loan Seller
to deliver to the Custodian an executed, recorded or undamaged document, as applicable, or, if the failure to deliver such document
in such form constitutes a Material Defect, the Depositor shall cause the related Mortgage Loan Seller to cure, repurchase or
substitute for the related Mortgage Loan in the manner provided in Section 2.03(e) of this Agreement. None of the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian or the Trustee shall be responsible for any loss,
cost, damage or expense to the Trust Fund resulting from any failure to receive any document constituting a portion of a Mortgage
File noted on such a report or for any failure by the Depositor to use its best efforts to deliver any such document.


 


Contemporaneously with
its execution of this Agreement, the Depositor shall cause each Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver a power of attorney substantially
in the form of Exhibit C to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer,
that permits such parties to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any
documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required
for enforcement by the Trust Fund. Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers
will be required to effect (at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller) the assignment and recordation of its respective
Loan Documents until the assignment and recordation of all such Loan Documents has been completed.


 


In reviewing any Mortgage
File pursuant to the third preceding paragraph or Section 2.01 of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall have no responsibility
to cause the Custodian or Trustee to, and the Custodian or Trustee will have no responsibility to, examine any opinions or determine
whether any document is legal, valid, binding, sufficient, duly authorized or enforceable, whether the text of any assignment or
endorsement is in proper or recordable form (except, if applicable, to determine if the Trustee is the assignee or endorsee), whether
any document has been recorded in accordance with the requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, whether a blanket assignment
is permitted in any applicable jurisdiction, or whether any Person executing any document or rendering any opinion is authorized
to do so or whether any signature thereon is genuine.


 


The Custodian shall hold
that portion of the Trust Fund delivered to the Custodian consisting of “instruments” (as such term is defined in Section
9-102 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in Minnesota on the date hereof) in Minnesota and, except as otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement, shall not remove such instruments from Minnesota unless it receives an Opinion of Counsel (obtained
and delivered at the expense of the Person requesting the removal of such instruments from Minnesota) that if the transfer of the
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee is deemed not to be a sale, after such removal, the Trustee will possess a first priority perfected
security interest in such instruments.

(vii)       No

    -170-


     


    

 


(viii)     The
Trustee, if not the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, will have a valid and perfected security interest of first priority in
each of the Mortgage Loans and any proceeds thereof.


 


(b)       The
Depositor hereby represents and warrants with respect to each Mortgage Loan that:


 


(i)        Immediately
prior to the transfer and assignment to the Trustee by the Depositor, the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage were not subject to an
assignment or pledge, and the Depositor had good title to, and was the sole owner of, the Mortgage Loan and had full right to transfer
and sell the Mortgage Loan to the Trustee free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest;
provided, that, in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage has been (or will be) assigned to the
Other Trustee under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the holders of securities issued in connection
with the related Other Securitization, as applicable;


 


(ii)       The
Depositor is transferring such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any
nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan;


 


(iii)       The
related Assignment of Mortgage constitutes the legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage from the Depositor to the Trustee,
and any related Reassignment of Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits constitutes the legal, valid and binding assignment from
the Depositor to the Trustee; and


 


(iv)       No
claims have been made by the Depositor under the lender’s title insurance policy, and the Depositor has not done anything
which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy.


 


(c)       It
is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.03 shall survive delivery of
the respective Mortgage Files to the Custodian until the termination of this Agreement, and shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer.


 


(d)       If
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (i) receives a Repurchase Communication of a request or demand for repurchase or replacement
of a Mortgage Loan because of a Breach or a Defect (each as defined below) (any such request or demand, a “Repurchase
Request”, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to the extent it receives a Repurchase Request,
the “Repurchase Request Recipient” with respect to such Repurchase Request); (ii) receives a Repurchase Communication
of a withdrawal of a Repurchase Request by the Person making such Repurchase Request (a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal”),
(iii) receives a Repurchase Communication that any Mortgage Loan that was subject to a Repurchase Request has been repurchased
or replaced (a “Repurchase”), or (iv) receives a Repurchase Communication of the rejection of a Repurchase Request
(a “Repurchase Request Rejection”), then such Person shall deliver written notice of such Repurchase Request,
Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection (each such


 






    -171-


     


    

 


notice,
a “Rule 15Ga-1 Notice”) to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the related Mortgage
Loan Seller, in each case within ten Business Days from such party’s receipt of a Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase
Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection, as applicable; provided however, if the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer receives notice of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal or Repurchase Request Rejection from the Special
Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, then such receiving party shall have no obligation to deliver such notice to any
other party.


 


Each Rule 15Ga-1 Notice
shall include (i) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the date the Repurchase Communication of the Repurchase Request,
Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection, as applicable, was received and (iii) in the case of
a Repurchase Request, (A) the identity of the Person making such Repurchase Request, (B) if known, the basis for the Repurchase
Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) and (C) a statement from the Repurchase Request Recipient as to whether it currently
plans to pursue such Repurchase Request.


 


No Person that is required
to provide a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) (a “Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider”) shall
be required to provide any information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product
doctrines. Each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement will provide that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section
2.03(d) is so provided only to assist the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Depositor and its Affiliates to comply with Rule
15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii) (A)
no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.03(d)
by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule
15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase
Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.


 


In the event that the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian
receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, then such party shall promptly
forward such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal to the Master Servicer, if relating
to a Performing Loan, or to the Special Servicer, if relating to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, and include the following
statement in the related correspondence: “This is a “Repurchase Request [Withdrawal]” under Section 2.03(d)
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the Benchmark 2018-B1 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates,
Series 2018-B1 requiring action by you as the recipient of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal thereunder”.
Upon receipt of such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal by the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, such party shall be deemed to be the Repurchase Request Recipient of such Repurchase Communication
of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal, and such party shall comply with the procedures set forth in this
Section 2.03(d) with respect to such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal. In no event shall


 






    -172-


     


    

 


the
Custodian, by virtue of this provision, be required to provide any notice other than as set forth in Section 2.02 of this
Agreement in connection with its review of the Mortgage File.


 


(e)       A
“Defect” shall exist with respect to a Mortgage Loan if any document constituting a part of the related Mortgage File
has not been delivered within the time periods provided for in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, has not been properly
executed, is missing, does not appear to be regular on its face or contains information that does not conform in any material respect
with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule. A “Breach” shall mean a breach of
any representation or warranty of any Mortgage Loan Seller made pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect
to any Mortgage Loan. If any party hereto discovers or receives notice of a Defect or a Breach, and if such Defect is a Material
Defect or such Breach is a Material Breach, as applicable, then such party, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall give prompt written
notice thereof (which notice shall be accompanied by a written demand to cure, repurchase or substitute in accordance with the
applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the other parties hereto, the 17g-5 Information
Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d)
of this Agreement), the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (if any) and, for so long as no Consultation Termination Event
has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder. If any such Defect or Breach materially and adversely affects the value of
any Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee in any Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged
Property, or causes the related Mortgage Loan to be other than a Qualified Mortgage, then such Defect shall constitute a “Material
Defect” or such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach,” as the case may be; provided, that if any
of the documents specified in Section 2.01(a)(i), Section 2.01(a)(ii), Section 2.01(a)(vii), Section 2.01(a)(xi)
and Section 2.01(a)(xix) of this Agreement are not delivered as required in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement,
it shall be deemed a Material Defect. The Custodian, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall not be required to make
any such determination. Promptly upon receiving written notice of any such Material Defect or Material Breach with respect to a
Mortgage Loan, accompanied by a written demand to take the actions contemplated by this sentence from the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer
or the Custodian, on behalf of the Trust Fund, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the applicable
Mortgage Loan Seller’s receipt of such notice of such Material Defect or Material Breach, as the case may be (or, in the
case of a Material Defect or Material Breach relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days
after the Mortgage Loan Seller or any party hereto discovering such Material Defect or Material Breach, provided that the related
Mortgage Loan Seller has received notice in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) (any such
90-day period, the “Initial Resolution Period”), (i) cure the same in all material respects, (ii) repurchase
the affected Mortgage Loan at the applicable Purchase Price in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
or (iii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the Whole Loans, as applicable, for which
no substitution will be permitted) for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that, in no event shall such substitution occur
later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date) and pay to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account (or,
with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account) any Substitution Shortfall Amount
in connection therewith;


 






    -173-


     


    

 


provided
that if (i) such Material Defect or Material Breach is capable of being cured but not within the Initial Resolution Period
or, with respect to the immediately preceding proviso, the time period set forth therein, (ii) such Material Defect or Material
Breach is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage, (iii) the Mortgage Loan Seller has commenced
and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect or Material Breach within the Initial Resolution Period and
(iv) the Mortgage Loan Seller has delivered to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer,
the Certificate Administrator (who will promptly deliver a copy of such officer’s certificate to the 17g-5 Information Provider),
the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and, prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Holder, an
officer’s certificate that describes the reason the cure was not effected within the initial 90-day period, then the Mortgage
Loan Seller shall have an additional period equal to the applicable Resolution Extension Period to complete such cure or, failing
such cure, to repurchase the Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Borrower),
healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, theatre or fitness center (operated by a Borrower), then the failure
to deliver to the Custodian copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material
Defect. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s obligation shall be such Mortgage
Loan Seller’s pro rata share based on such Mortgage Loan Seller’s percentage interest as of the date of the applicable
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in such Joint Mortgage Loan. With respect to the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage
Loan Seller agrees that any Defect as such term is defined in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement (other than a
Defect related to the promissory note for the related Companion Loan) will constitute a Defect under the related Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if there is a Material Breach or Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties with respect to a Mortgage Loan,
the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller will not be obligated to repurchase the Mortgage Loan and such Material Breach or Material
Defect will be considered Resolved if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial
release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property is, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged
Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the Loan Documents and the Mortgage Loan Seller provides an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that such release would not cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur and (iii) each applicable Rating Agency
has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.


 


If a Mortgage Loan Seller,
in connection with a Material Defect or a Material Breach (or an allegation of a Material Defect or a Material Breach) pertaining
to a Mortgage Loan, makes a cash payment pursuant to an agreement or a settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and
the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust (and with the consent of the Directing Holder if no Control Termination Event has occurred
and is continuing) (each such payment, a “Loss of Value Payment”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the amount
of such Loss of Value Payment shall be deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to be applied in accordance with Section
3.06(e) of this Agreement. In connection with any such determination with respect to any Performing Loan, the Master Servicer
shall promptly provide the Special Servicer, but in any event within the time frame and in the manner set forth in Section 3.23,
with


 






    -174-


     


    

 


the
Servicing File and all information, documents (but excluding the original documents constituting the Mortgage File) and records
(including records stored electronically) relating to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, and reasonably
requested by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 2.03 in order to permit the Special Servicer to calculate the Loss
of Value Payment. If such Loss of Value Payment is made, the Loss of Value Payment shall serve as the sole remedy available to
the Certificateholders and the Trustee on their behalf regarding any such Material Breach or Material Defect in lieu of any obligation
of the Mortgage Loan Seller to otherwise cure such Material Breach or Material Defect or repurchase or substitute for the affected
Mortgage Loan based on such Material Breach or Material Defect under any circumstances. This paragraph is intended to apply only
to a mutual agreement or settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Trust, provided, that (i) prior
to any such agreement or settlement nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Trustee from exercising
any of its rights related to a Material Defect or a Material Breach in the manner and timing set forth in the related Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.03 (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute
for such Mortgage Loan); (ii) such Loss of Value Payment shall not be greater than the Purchase Price of the affected Mortgage
Loan; and (iii) a Material Defect or a Material Breach as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage may
not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s
obligation shall be such Mortgage Loan Seller’s pro rata share based on such Mortgage Loan Seller’s percentage
interest as of the date of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in such Joint Mortgage Loan.


 


If any Breach pertains
to a representation or warranty to the effect that the related Mortgage Loan documents or any particular Mortgage Loan document
requires the related Borrower to bear the costs and expenses associated with any particular action or matter under such Mortgage
Loan document(s), then the related Mortgage Loan Seller may cure such Breach within the applicable cure period (as the same may
be extended) by reimbursing the Trust Fund (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) the reasonable amount of any such
costs and expenses incurred by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust
Fund that are incurred as a result of such Breach and have not been reimbursed by the related Borrower; provided, however,
that in the event any such costs and expenses exceed $10,000, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the option to either
repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan as provided above or pay such costs and expenses. Except as provided in
the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall remit the amount of such costs and expenses
and upon its making such remittance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have cured such Breach in all respects.
To the extent any fees or expenses that are the subject of a cure by the related Mortgage Loan Seller are subsequently obtained
from the related Borrower, the portion of the cure payment made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller equal to such fees or expenses
obtained from the related Borrower shall promptly be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. With respect to any Joint Mortgage
Loan, each applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s obligation shall be such Mortgage Loan Seller’s pro rata share
based on such Mortgage Loan Seller’s percentage interest as of the date of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
in such Joint Mortgage Loan.


 






    -175-


     


    

 


(f)       In
connection with any repurchase of or substitution for a Mortgage Loan contemplated by this Section 2.03, (A) the Custodian,
the Master Servicer (with respect to any Performing Loan) and the Special Servicer (with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan)
shall each tender to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller all portions of the Mortgage File (in the case of the Custodian) and the
Servicing File (in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable) and other documents pertaining to such
Mortgage Loan possessed by it (other than attorney-client communications that are privileged communications), upon delivery (i)
to each of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of a trust receipt and (ii) to the Custodian by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of a Request for Release and an acknowledgement by the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, as applicable, of its receipt of the Purchase Price or the Substitution Shortfall Amount from the applicable Mortgage
Loan Seller, (B) each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File that was endorsed or assigned to the Trustee shall
be endorsed or assigned without recourse in the form of endorsement or assignment provided to the Custodian by the applicable Mortgage
Loan Seller, as the case may be, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller as shall be necessary to vest in the applicable Mortgage
Loan Seller the legal and beneficial ownership of such Mortgage Loan to the extent such ownership was transferred to the Trustee
(provided, that the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate in furnishing
necessary information to the extent in its possession to the Mortgage Loan Seller in connection with such Mortgage Loan Seller’s
preparation of such endorsement or assignment) and (C) the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer shall release, or cause a release of, any escrow payments and reserve funds held by the Trustee, the Certificate
Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, or on the Trustee’s, the Certificate Administrator’s,
the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, behalf, in respect of such Mortgage Loan to the applicable
Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


(g)       The
Enforcing Servicer shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, use reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations
of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under Section 6 of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Such enforcement, including,
without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, shall be carried out in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Trustee,
the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be reimbursed for the reasonable
costs of such enforcement: first, pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement (with respect to the related Mortgage
Loan), out of the related Purchase Price or Substitution Shortfall Amount, as applicable, to the extent that such expenses are
a specific component thereof; and second, if at the conclusion of such enforcement action it is determined that the amounts
described in clause first are insufficient, then pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement, out of general collections
on the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Collection Account in each case with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from the
time such expense was incurred to, but excluding, the date such expense was reimbursed. To the extent the applicable Mortgage Loan
Seller prevails in such proceeding, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust for all necessary
and reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such proceeding, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.


 


So long as document exceptions
are outstanding, on each anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall prepare and forward to the Depositor, the Trustee,
the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the


 






    -176-


     


    

 


Asset
Representations Reviewer, the Controlling Class Representative (as identified to the Custodian by the Certificate Administrator)
and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, a document exception report setting forth the then current status of any Defects related
to the Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans sold by such Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


As to any Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced
Loans and REO Properties) shall direct the related Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver to the Custodian for such Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan (with a copy to the Master Servicer), the related Mortgage File with the related Mortgage Note endorsed as required
by Section 2.01(a)(i) hereof. Periodic Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in or prior to the
month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and, if received by the Master Servicer, shall be remitted by the Master
Servicer to the related Mortgage Loan Seller on the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the month of repurchase or substitution,
distributions to Certificateholders will include the Periodic Payment(s) due on the related Removed Mortgage Loan, if and to the
extent received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase
or substitution, as applicable, and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received thereafter in respect
of such Removed Mortgage Loan.


 


In any month in which
a Mortgage Loan Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Removed Mortgage Loans, the
Master Servicer will determine the applicable Substitution Shortfall Amount and promptly notify the Certificate Administrator thereof.
Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall direct such Mortgage Loan Seller to deposit into the
Collection Account and/or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account, as applicable, cash equal to such amount concurrently
with the delivery of the Mortgage Files for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans, without any reimbursement thereof. The Certificate
Administrator shall also direct such Mortgage Loan Seller to give written notice to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Master Servicer
of such deposit. The Certificate Administrator shall cause its Distribution Date Statement to reflect the removal of each Removed
Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution, the Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.


 


It is understood and
agreed that Section 6 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements provides the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders and
the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders respecting any Breach (including a Breach with respect to a Mortgage Loan failing
to constitute a Qualified Mortgage) or any Defect.


 


(h)       In
the event that any litigation is commenced which alleges facts which, in the judgment of the Depositor, could constitute a breach
of any of the Depositor’s representations and warranties relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Depositor hereby reserves the
right to conduct the defense of such litigation at its expense and shall not be required to obtain any consent from the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Directing Holder, unless such defense results in any liability of the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the Directing Holder, as applicable.


 






    -177-


     


    

 


(i)       If
for any reason a Mortgage Loan Seller fails to fulfill its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with
respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to
Specially Serviced Loans) shall use reasonable efforts in enforcing any obligation of such Mortgage Loan Seller (including but
not limited to) to cure, repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement all at the expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


(j)       Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for the purposes of Section 2.03 of this Agreement and any provision
relating to repurchase and substitution obligations for a Material Breach or Material Defect, with respect to any Joint Mortgage
Loan, the obligations of each of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers to repurchase or substitute such Joint Mortgage Loan shall
be limited to a repurchase, substitution or Loss of Value Payment with respect to the Note it sold to the Depositor in accordance
with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, any cure by either of the applicable
Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to the Note sold by it to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement that also cures the Material Defect or Material Breach with respect to the entire related Joint Mortgage Loan shall satisfy
the cure obligations of both Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan.


 


(k)       (i)
In the event an Initial Requesting Certificateholder delivers a written request to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as Operating Advisor) that
a Mortgage Loan be repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller alleging the existence of a Material Breach or Material Defect
with respect to such Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “Certificateholder Repurchase Request”),
such party shall promptly forward that Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, and
the Enforcing Servicer shall promptly forward that Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party
to this Agreement and take the actions required under Section 2.03(e). Subject to Section 2.03(l), the Enforcing
Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to the Certificateholder Repurchase Request. If a Resolution Failure occurs
with respect to the Certificateholder Repurchase Request, the provisions described below under Section 2.03(l) shall apply.


 


(ii)       In
the event that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating
Advisor (solely in its capacity as Operating Advisor) has knowledge of a Material Breach or Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage
Loan, that party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Material Breach or Material Defect to the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer, and the Enforcing Servicer shall promptly forward to each other party to this Agreement and the related Mortgage
Loan Seller, identifying the applicable Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “PSA Party Repurchase
Request” and, each of a Certificateholder Repurchase Request or a PSA Party Repurchase Request, a “Repurchase
Request”). Subject to Section 2.03(l), the Enforcing Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to the
PSA Party Repurchase Request. If a Resolution Failure occurs with


 






    -178-


     


    

 


respect to the PSA Party Repurchase Request, the provisions described
below under Section 2.03(l) shall apply.


 


(iii)       In
the event the Repurchase Request is not Resolved within 180 days after the Mortgage Loan Seller receives the Repurchase Request
(such event, a “Resolution Failure”), and for all purposes herein, such Resolution Failure shall be deemed to
have occurred. Receipt of the Repurchase Request shall be deemed to occur two (2) Business Days after the Repurchase Request
is sent to the related Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


(iv)       Within
two (2) Business Days after a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a PSA Party Repurchase Request made by any party other
than the Special Servicer or a Certificateholder Repurchase Request made by any Certificateholder other than the Controlling Class
Representative or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, in each case, related to a Performing Loan, the Master Servicer shall
send a written notice (a “Master Servicer Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Special Servicer, indicating
the Master Servicer’s analysis and recommended course of action with respect to such Repurchase Request, along with the Servicing
File and all information, documents (but excluding the original documents constituting the Mortgage File) and records (including
records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Performing Loan and, if applicable,
the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise reasonably available to the
Master Servicer, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its duties hereunder to the extent set
forth hereunder for such Performing Loan. Upon receipt of such Master Servicer Proposed Course of Action Notice and such Servicing
File, the Special Servicer shall become the Enforcing Servicer with respect to such Repurchase Request.


 


(l)       (i)
After a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request regarding a Mortgage Loan (whether the Repurchase Request
was initiated by an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or by a party to this Agreement), the Enforcing Servicer shall send a
notice (a “Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, to the address
specified in the Initial Requesting Certificateholder’s Repurchase Request, and to the Certificate Administrator, who shall
make such notice available to all other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners (by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s
Website) indicating the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Proposed
Course of Action”). If the Master Servicer is the Enforcing Servicer, the Master Servicer may (but shall not be obligated
to) consult with the Special Servicer and (for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) the
Directing Holder regarding any Proposed Course of Action. Such notice shall include (a) a request to Certificateholders to indicate
their agreement with or dissent from such Proposed Course of Action by clearly marking “agree” or “disagree”
to the Proposed Course of Action on such notice within 30 days of the date of such notice and a disclaimer that responses received
after such 30-day period will not be taken into consideration, (b) a statement that in the event any Certificateholder disagrees
with the Proposed Course of Action, the Enforcing Servicer (either as the Enforcing Party or as the Enforcing Servicer in circumstances
where a Certificateholder is acting as the Enforcing Party) shall be compelled to follow the course of action agreed to and/or
proposed by the majority of the responding Certificateholders that


 






    -179-


     


    

 


involves
referring the matter to mediation or arbitration, as the case may be, (c) a statement that responding Certificateholders will
be required to certify their holdings in connection with such response, (d) a statement that only responses clearly marked “agree”
or “disagree” with such Proposed Course of Action will be taken into consideration and (e) instructions for responding
Certificateholders to send their responses to the applicable Enforcing Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate
Administrator shall within three (3) Business Days after the expiration of the 30-day response period, tabulate the responses
received from the Certificateholders and share the results with the Enforcing Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall only
count responses timely received and clearly indicating agreement or dissent with the related Proposed Course of Action and additional
verbiage or qualifying language shall not be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether the related Certificateholder
agrees or disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action. The Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to answer any
questions from Certificateholders regarding such Proposed Course of Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator’s
obligations in connection with this Section 2.03(l) shall be limited solely to tabulating Certificateholder responses of
“agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action, and such obligation shall not be construed to
impose any enforcement obligation on the Certificate Administrator. The Enforcing Servicer may conclusively rely (without investigation)
on the Certificate Administrator’s tabulation of the majority of the responding Certificateholders. If (a) the Enforcing
Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request does not involve pursuing further action to
exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request and the Initial Requesting
Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter
to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, or (b) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action
is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request
but the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder (other than a Holder of the Class V1 or Class
V2 Certificate) or Certificate Owner does not agree with the dispute resolution method selected by the Enforcing Servicer, then
the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or such other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner may deliver to the Enforcing
Servicer a written notice (a “Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice”) within 30 days from the date
the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (the “Dispute Resolution
Cut-off Date”) indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration. In
the event any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner entitled to do so delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice,
and the Enforcing Servicer has also received responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners supporting the Enforcing
Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action, such responses shall be considered Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election
Notices supporting the Proposed Course of Action for purposes of determining the course of action proposed by the majority of
Certificateholders.


 


(ii)       If
neither the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, nor any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner entitled to do so
delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, no Certificateholder or
Certificate Owner otherwise entitled to do so shall have the right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration,
and the Enforcing Servicer shall be the sole party obligated and entitled to determine a course of action, including but not


 






    -180-


     


    

 


limited
to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller, subject to any consent or consultation rights
of the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.08.


 


(iii)       Promptly
and in any event within 10 Business Days following receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice from (a) the Initial
Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or (b) any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (each of clauses (a) and (b), a “Requesting
Certificateholder”, provided that a Holder of a Class V1 or Class V2 Certificate may not be a Requesting Certificateholder),
the Enforcing Servicer will be required to consult with each Requesting Certificateholder regarding such Requesting Certificateholder’s
intention to elect either mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration as the dispute resolution method with respect
to the Repurchase Request (the “Dispute Resolution Consultation”) so that such Requesting Certificateholder
may consider the views of the Enforcing Servicer as to the claims underlying the Repurchase Request and possible dispute resolution
methods, such discussions to occur and be completed no later than 10 Business Days following the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date.
The Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to establish procedures the Enforcing Servicer deems to be in accordance with the Servicing
Standard relating to the timing and extent of such consultations. No later than 5 Business Days after completion of the Dispute
Resolution Consultation, a Requesting Certificateholder may provide a final notice to the Enforcing Servicer indicating its decision
to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration (“Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice”).


 


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


 


(v)       If
a Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then such
Requesting Certificateholder shall become the Enforcing Party and must promptly submit the matter to mediation (including nonbinding
arbitration) or arbitration. If there is more than one Requesting Certificateholder that timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution
Election Notice, then such Requesting Certificateholders will collectively become the Enforcing Party, and the holder or holders
of a majority of the Voting Rights among such Requesting Certificateholders will be entitled to make all decisions relating to
such mediation or arbitration. If, however, no Requesting Certificateholder commences arbitration or mediation pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement within 30 days after delivery of its Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer,
then (i) the rights of a Requesting Certificateholder to act as the Enforcing Party shall terminate and no Certificateholder or
Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration, (ii) if the Proposed Course
of Action Notice indicated that the Enforcing Servicer shall take no further action with respect to the Repurchase Request, then
the related Material Breach or Material Defect shall be deemed waived for all purposes under this Agreement and the related Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement;


 






    -181-


     


    

 


provided, however, that such Material Breach or Material Defect shall not be deemed waived
with respect a Requesting Certificateholder, any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner or the Enforcing Servicer to the
extent there is a material change in the facts and circumstances known to such party at the time when the Proposed Course of Action
Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (iii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice had indicated
a course of action other than the course of action under clause (ii), then the Enforcing Servicer shall again become the Enforcing
Party and, as such, shall be the sole party obligated and entitled to determine a course of action including, but not limited to,
enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


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


 


(vii)       In
the event a Requesting Certificateholder becomes the Enforcing Party, the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall remain
a party to any proceedings against the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided that the degree and extent to which the Enforcing
Servicer actively prepares for and participates in such proceeding shall be determined by such Enforcing Servicer (in consultation
with the Directing Holder for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), and in accordance with
the Servicing Standard. For the avoidance of doubt, the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers and any of their respective Affiliates
shall not be entitled to be an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or a Requesting Certificateholder.


 


(viii)       The
Requesting Certificateholder is entitled to elect either mediation or arbitration in its sole discretion; however, the Requesting
Certificateholder may not elect to then utilize the alternative method in the event that the initial method is unsuccessful.


 


(ix)       If
(i) a Repurchase Request is made with respect to any Mortgage Loan based on any particular alleged Material Breach or Material
Defect, (ii) a Resolution Failure is deemed to occur with respect to such Repurchase Request, and (iii) if either (A) a mediation
or arbitration is undertaken with respect to such Repurchase Request or (B) the Certificateholders and Certificate Owners cease
to have a right to refer such Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, in either case in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement, then no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner may make any subsequent Repurchase Request with respect to such
Mortgage Loan based on the same alleged Material Breach or Material Defect unless there is a material change in the facts and circumstances
known to such party.


 


(x)       The
Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller and any of their respective Affiliates shall not be entitled to be an Initial Requesting Certificateholder
or a Requesting Certificateholder.


 






    -182-


     


    

 


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


 


(i)       The
mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller
in accordance with published mediation procedures (the “Mediation Rules”) promulgated by a nationally recognized
mediation services provider selected by the Mortgage Loan Seller (such provider, the “Meditation Services Provider”).


 


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


 


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


 


(iv)       The
expenses of any mediation shall be allocated among the parties to the mediation, including, if applicable, between the Enforcing
Party and the Enforcing Servicer, as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.


 


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


 


(i)       The
arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan
Seller in accordance with published arbitration procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”) promulgated by a nationally
recognized arbitration services provider selected by the Mortgage Loan Seller (such provider, the “Arbitration Services
Provider”).


 


(ii)       The
arbitrator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least 15 years of experience
in commercial litigation and commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters or other complex
commercial transactions, and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Arbitration Services Provider. Upon
being supplied a list of at least ten potential arbitrators by the Arbitration Services Provider each party will have the right
to exercise two peremptory challenges within 14 days and to rank the remaining potential arbitrators in order of preference. The
Arbitration Services Provider will select the arbitrator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices
of the parties to the extent possible.


 






    -183-


     


    

 


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


 


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


 


(v)       Notwithstanding
whatever other discovery may be available under the Rules, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each party to the arbitration
will be presumptively limited to the following discovery in the arbitration: (A) the parties shall reasonably and in good faith
voluntarily produce to all other parties all documents upon which they intend to rely and all documents they reasonably and in
good faith believe to be relevant to the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties, (B) party witness depositions (excluding
Rule 30b-6 witnesses), and (C) expert witness depositions, provided, that the arbitrator shall have the ability to grant
the parties, or either of them, additional discovery to the extent that the arbitrator determines good cause is shown that such
additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.


 


(vi)       The
arbitrator shall make its final determination no later than 30 days after the conclusion of the hearings and submission of any
post-hearing submissions. The arbitrator shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement and this Agreement, and may not modify or change those agreements in any way or award remedies not consistent with those
agreements. The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted
by them. Interest on any monetary award shall bear interest from the date of the Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice at the
Prime Rate. In its final determination, the arbitrator shall determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees
of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and shall award reasonable attorneys’
fees to the parties to the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator
shall be by a reasoned decision in writing and counterpart copies will be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination
of the arbitrator shall be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under
federal or state law, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.


 


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


 


(viii)       No
person may bring a putative or certificated class action to arbitration.


 






    -184-


     


    

 


(o)       The
following provisions will apply to both mediation and third-party arbitration:


 


(i)       Any
mediation or arbitration will be held in New York, New York unless another location is agreed by all parties.


 


(ii)       If
the dispute involves a matter that cannot effectively be remedied by the payment of damages, or if there be any dispute relating
to arbitration or the arbitrators that cannot be resolved promptly by the arbitrators or the Arbitration Services Provider, then
any party in such instance may during the pendency of the arbitration proceedings seek temporary equitable remedies, pending the
final decision of the arbitration panel, solely by application in the Southern District if such court shall have subject matter
jurisdiction, or if the Southern District has no jurisdiction, then it the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County
of New York. The arbitration proceedings shall not be stayed unless so ordered by the court.


 


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


 


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


 






    -185-


     


    

 


behalf shall be responsible for any such costs and expenses allocated
to the Requesting Certificateholder.


 


(v)       In
the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the Requesting Certificateholder shall be required to pay any
expenses allocated to the Enforcing Party in the arbitration proceedings or any expenses that the Enforcing Party agrees to bear
in the mediation proceedings.


 


(vi)       The
Trust (or the Trustee or the Enforcing Party acting on its behalf), the Depositor or any Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted
to redact any personally identifiable customer information included in any information provided for purposes of any mediation or
arbitration. Each party to the proceedings shall be required to agree to keep confidential the details related to the Repurchase
Request and the dispute resolution identified in connection with such procedures; provided, however, that the Certificateholders
shall be permitted to communicate prior to the commencement of any such proceedings to the extent provided in Section 5.06.


 


(vii)       For
the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the exercise of any right of a Requesting Certificateholder to refer a Repurchase Request
to mediation or arbitration or participation in such mediation or arbitration affect in any manner the ability of the Enforcing
Servicer to perform its obligations with respect to a Mortgage Loan or the exercise of any rights of a Directing Holder (including
without limitation, a liquidation, foreclosure, negotiation of a loan modification or workout, acceptance of a discounted pay off
or deed in lieu, or bankruptcy or other litigation).


 


(viii)       For
the avoidance of doubt, any expenses required to be borne by or allocated to the Enforcing Servicer in mediation or arbitration
or related responsibilities under this Agreement shall be reimbursable as Additional Trust Fund Expenses.


 


Section 2.04 Representations,
Warranties and Covenants of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating
Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. (a) The Master Servicer, as Master Servicer, hereby represents and warrants
with respect to itself to the Trustee, for its own benefit and the benefit of the Certificateholders, and to the Depositor, the
Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor and the Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholders, as of the Closing Date, that:


 


(i)       The
Master Servicer is a national banking association, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
United States of America, and the Master Servicer is in compliance with the laws of each state (within the United States of America)
in which any related Mortgaged Property is located to the extent necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement;


 


(ii)       The
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Master Servicer, and the performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement
by the Master Servicer, do not (A) violate the Master Servicer’s organizational documents, (B) 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 of, any material
agreement or other


 






    -186-


     


    

 


material instrument to which it is a party or which is applicable to it or any of its assets, or (C) violate
any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which the Master Servicer or its property is subject, which, in the case
of either (B) or (C), is likely to materially and adversely affect either the ability of the Master Servicer to perform its obligations
under this Agreement or its financial condition;

the Serviced Companion Loans. (a) The Master Servicer (generally with respect to Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related

Serviced Loans and Serviced REO Loans), each as an independent contractor servicer, shall service and administer the Serviced
Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Trustee (as Trustee for the Certificateholders)
and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder(s), (as a collective whole as if such
Certificateholders and Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder(s), as applicable, constituted a single lender (and with respect to
any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such
Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan)), in each case, in accordance with the Servicing Standard.


 


The Master Servicer’s
or Special Servicer’s liability for actions and omissions in its capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the
case may be, hereunder is limited as provided herein (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof). To
the extent consistent with the foregoing and subject to any express limitations set forth in this Agreement, the Master Servicer
and Special Servicer shall seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes; provided, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer

Servicer and Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through sub-servicers (subject to paragraph

Agreement), to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration that it may deem
consistent with the Servicing Standard and, in its reasonable judgment, in the best interests of the Certificateholders, including,
without limitation, with respect to each Serviced Mortgage Loan and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, in the best interests
of the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder(s), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and
(with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan) Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder(s) constituted a single lender (and with respect to
any Serviced Whole Loan with any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such
Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan)) to prepare, execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholders and the Trustee or any of them: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents
or instruments necessary to maintain the lien on each Mortgaged


 






    -196-


     


    

 


Property
and related collateral; (ii) any modifications, waivers, consents or amendments to or with respect to any documents contained
in the related Mortgage File; and (iii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release
or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties. Notwithstanding

Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and Serviced REO Loans) shall provide to the Borrowers related to such Mortgage
Loans that it is servicing any reports required to be provided to them pursuant to the related Loan Documents. Subject to Section
3.11 of this Agreement, the Trustee shall, upon the receipt of a written request of a Servicing Officer, execute and deliver
to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, as applicable, any powers of attorney (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
DD, or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable)
and other documents (including but not limited to other powers of attorney) prepared by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer,

as applicable, to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Trustee shall not be held liable for any
misuse of any such power of attorney or such other documents by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, as applicable. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, none of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, without the Trustee’s
written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master
Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, representative capacity (unless prohibited by any requirement
of the applicable jurisdiction in which any such action, suit or proceeding is brought and if so prohibited, in the manner required
by such jurisdiction (provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall then provide five (5) Business
Days’ written notice to the Trustee of the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding (or such shorter time period as
is reasonably required in the judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, made in accordance with
the Servicing Standard) prior to filing such action, suit or proceeding), and shall not be required to obtain the Trustee’s
consent or indicate the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, representative capacity); or (ii)
take any action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any state.


 


(b)       Unless
otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Note or related Intercreditor Agreement, the Master Servicer shall apply any partial
Principal Prepayment received on a Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, on a date other than a Due
Date to the Stated Principal Balance of such Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, as of the Due Date
immediately following the date of receipt of such partial Principal Prepayment. Unless otherwise provided in the related Mortgage

of a Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, being defeased pursuant to its terms to the Stated Principal

(c)       The
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with third parties with respect to any of its
respective obligations hereunder, provided that (i) any such agreement requires the Sub-Servicer to comply in all material
respects with all of the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall be consistent with the provisions of this
Agreement, the terms of the respective Loan Documents and, in the case of a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Intercreditor
Agreement, (ii) if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, any such agreement provides
that (x) the failure of such Sub-Servicer to comply with any of the requirements under Article X of this Agreement applicable
to such Sub-Servicer, including the failure to deliver any reports or certificates at the time such report or certification is
required under Article X and (y) the failure of such Sub-Servicer to comply with any requirements to deliver any items required
by Items 1122 and 1123 of Regulation AB under any other pooling and servicing agreement relating to any other series of certificates
offered by the Depositor shall constitute an event of default by such Sub-Servicer upon the occurrence of which (following the
expiration of any applicable grace period) the Master Servicer shall (and the Depositor may) immediately terminate the related
Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, which termination shall be deemed for cause, (iii) no Sub-Servicer retained
by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall grant any modification, waiver or amendment to any Mortgage
Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, or foreclose any Mortgage without the approval of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, which approval shall be given or withheld in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.09,
Section 3.10, Section 3.24, Section 3.25, Section 3.26, Section 3.27, (as applicable), (iv)
such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be consistent with the Servicing Standard, (v) such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminable
if at any time the related Sub-Servicer is a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third-Party Purchaser and such Sub-Servicer is a servicer
as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2) of Regulation AB, and (vi) with respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after the
Closing Date, if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, such Sub-Servicer, at the time
the related Sub-Servicing Agreement is entered into, is not a Prohibited Party. Any such Sub-Servicing Agreement may permit the
Sub-Servicer to delegate its duties to agents or Subcontractors so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents
or Subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 3.01(c) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, that
no such agent or Subcontractor is a Prohibited Party, if such agent or Subcontractor would be a Servicing Function Participant,
at the time the related sub-servicing agreement is entered into). Any monies received by a Sub-Servicer pursuant to a Sub-Servicing
agreement (other than sub-servicing fees) shall be deemed to be received by the Master Servicer on the date received by such Sub-Servicer.


 


Any Sub-Servicing Agreement
entered into by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide that it may be assumed or terminated
by the Trustee (in its sole discretion, but must be assumed with respect to any Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer so long as such
Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer is not in default under the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement) if the Trustee has assumed the
duties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, respectively, or any successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable,
without cost or obligation to the assuming party or the Trust Fund, upon the assumption by such party of the obligations, except
to the extent they arose prior to the date of assumption, of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, pursuant
to Section 7.02 (it being


 






    -198-


     


    

 


understood
that any such obligations shall be the obligations of the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, only).


 


Any Sub-Servicing Agreement,
and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Serviced Companion Loans involving a Sub-Servicer,
shall be deemed to be between the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and such Sub-Servicer alone, and the
Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust Fund, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificateholders
and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights (except
as specified below), obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer, except as set forth in Section 3.01(c)(ii)
and Section 3.01(d).


 


Any Sub-Servicing Agreement
as to which a Mortgage Loan Seller required the Master Servicer to enter into shall provide that the Master Servicer (and any successor
Master Servicer) or Trustee may only terminate the related Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer for cause pursuant to such Sub-Servicing
Agreement and as otherwise specified in such Sub-Servicing Agreement.


 


Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall not enter into any Sub-Servicing Agreement which provides for the performance
by third parties of any or all of its obligations herein, without the consent of the Directing Holder for so long as no Control
Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, except to the extent necessary for the Special Servicer to comply with applicable
regulatory requirements.


 


The Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of each Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer
and each Sub-Servicer that it retains under a related Sub-Servicing Agreement, except that the Master Servicer shall only be required
to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer to comply with Article X hereof. No Sub-Servicer
shall be permitted under any Sub-Servicing Agreement to make material servicing decisions, such as loan modifications or determinations
as to the manner or timing of enforcing remedies under the Mortgage Loan documents, without the consent of the Master Servicer
or Special Servicer, as applicable. The Master Servicer’s consent may also be required for certain other servicing decisions
as provided in the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.


 


Except with respect to
the Special Servicer, no party shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a Sub-Servicer that is a Risk Retention Affiliate
of the Third-Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer would be a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2) of Regulation AB. Notwithstanding
the preceding sentence, the parties to this Agreement, absent actual knowledge to the contrary, may conclusively rely upon a representation
of any Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer that such Sub-Servicer is not, to its actual knowledge, a Risk Retention Affiliate of
the Third-Party Purchaser. If at any time a party to this transaction obtains actual knowledge that such Sub-Servicer is a servicer
as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2) of Regulation AB and is a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third-Party Purchaser, such party
shall terminate such Sub-Servicer in accordance with the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.


 


(d)       If
the Trustee or any successor Master Servicer assumes the obligations of the Master Servicer, or if the Trustee or any successor
Special Servicer assumes the obligations


 






    -199-


     


    

 


of
the Special Servicer, in each case in accordance with Section 7.02, the Trustee, the successor Master Servicer or such
successor Special Servicer, as applicable, to the extent necessary to permit the Trustee, the successor Master Servicer or such
successor Special Servicer, as applicable, to carry out the provisions of Section 7.02, shall, without act or deed on the
part of the Trustee, the successor Master Servicer or such successor Special Servicer, as applicable, succeed to all of the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under any Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into
by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.01(c). In such event, such successor
shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s interest, as applicable, therein
(but not any liabilities or obligations in respect of acts or omissions of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,
prior to such deemed assumption) and to have replaced the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as a party to
such Sub-Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if such Sub-Servicing Agreement had been assigned to such successor, except
that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations
under such Sub-Servicing Agreement that accrued prior to the succession of such successor.


 


If the Trustee or any
successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, assumes the servicing obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, then upon request of such successor, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall at
its own expense (except (i) in the event that the Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section 3.22(b), at the expense
of the Certificateholders effecting such termination, as applicable; or (ii) in the event that the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section 6.04(c), at the expense of the Trust) deliver to such successor all documents
and records relating to any Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans and/or the Serviced Companion Loans, as applicable,
then being serviced hereunder or thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it, if any, and shall otherwise
use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of any Sub-Servicing Agreement to such successor.
The Master Servicer shall not be required to assume the obligations of the Special Servicer and nothing in this paragraph shall
imply otherwise.


 


(e)       The
parties hereto acknowledge that each Whole Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Intercreditor Agreement and,
with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, further subject to the servicing under and all other terms and conditions of the
Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The parties hereto further recognize the respective rights and obligations of each Companion
Loan Noteholder under the related Intercreditor Agreement, including, without limitation with respect to (A) the allocation of
collections (and all other amounts received in connection with the related Whole Loan) on or in respect of the related Mortgage
Loan and (B) the allocation of Default Interest on or in respect of the related Mortgage Loan.


 


Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s
obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect
to the Serviced Whole Loans are limited by and subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and, with respect to
any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the rights of the Other Servicer and the Other Special Servicer under the Other Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. The


 






    -200-


     


    

 


Master
Servicer shall, consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard, enforce the rights of the Trustee (as holder of a Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan) under the related Intercreditor Agreement and the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge
that each Non-Serviced Whole Loan and any related REO Property are being serviced and administered under the related Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and the Other Servicer will make any Servicing Advances required thereunder in respect of such Non-Serviced
Whole Loan and remit collections on the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan to or on behalf of the Trust. None of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee shall have any obligation or authority to supervise the related
Other Servicer, the related Other Special Servicer or the related Other Trustee or to make Servicing Advances with respect to
any such Non-Serviced Whole Loan. Although each Non-Serviced Whole Loan is being serviced under the related Other Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the Controlling Class Representative may have certain information and consultation rights relating to the
servicing of the Non-Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and the related Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any obligation of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, to provide information and
collections to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Certificateholders with respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan
shall be dependent on its receipt of the corresponding information and collections from the related Other Servicer or the related
Other Special Servicer. Nothing herein shall be deemed to override the provisions of an Intercreditor Agreement with respect to
the rights of the related noteholders thereunder and with respect to the servicing and administrative duties and obligations with
respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loans. In the event of any inconsistency or discrepancy between the provisions, terms or conditions
of an Intercreditor Agreement related to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan and the provisions, terms or conditions of this Agreement,
the related Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.


 


If any Mortgage Loan
included in any Serviced Whole Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund and the servicing and administration of such Serviced Whole
Loan is to be governed by a separate servicing agreement and not by this Agreement, the Master Servicer and, if such Serviced Whole
Loan is then being specially serviced hereunder, the Special Servicer, shall continue to act in such capacities under such separate
servicing agreement, which agreement shall be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, and shall contain servicing and administration, limitation of liability, indemnification and servicing compensation
provisions substantially similar to the corresponding provisions of this Agreement, except that such Serviced Whole Loan and the
related Mortgaged Property shall be serviced as if they were the sole assets serviced and administered thereunder and the sole
source of funds thereunder and except that there shall be no further obligation of any Person to make P&I Advances. All amounts
due the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Special Servicer (including Advances and interest thereon) pursuant to this Agreement
and the applicable Intercreditor Agreement shall be paid to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Special Servicer by the successor
Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or as an Additional Trust Fund Expense on the first Master Servicer Remittance
Date following termination. In addition, until such time as a separate servicing agreement with respect to such Serviced Whole
Loan and any related Serviced REO Property has been entered into and, notwithstanding that neither such Mortgage Loan nor any related
Serviced REO Property is part of the Trust Fund, the Custodian shall continue to hold the Mortgage File and the Master Servicer
and, if applicable, the Special Servicer shall (subject to the preceding sentence) continue


 






    -201-


     


    

 


to
service such Serviced Whole Loan or any related Serviced REO Property, as the case may be, under this Agreement as if it were
a separate servicing agreement. Nothing herein shall be deemed to override the provisions of an Intercreditor Agreement with respect
to the rights of the related noteholders thereunder and with respect to the servicing and administrative duties and obligations
with respect to such Serviced Whole Loans. In the event of any inconsistency or discrepancy between the provisions, terms or conditions
of an Intercreditor Agreement related to a Serviced Whole Loan and the provisions, terms or conditions of this Agreement, the
related Intercreditor Agreement shall govern, and as to any matter on which such Intercreditor Agreement is silent or makes reference
to this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern.


 


(f)       Except
as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association acting in any particular capacity hereunder
will not be deemed to be imputed with knowledge of (a) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, acting in a capacity that is unrelated
to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (b) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, acting in any other capacity
hereunder, except, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), where some or all of the obligations performed
in such capacities are performed by one or more employees within the same group or division of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
or where the groups or divisions responsible for performing the obligations in such capacities have one or more of the same Responsible
Officers, provided in any event, however, the knowledge of employees performing special servicing functions shall not be
imputed to employees performing master servicing functions, and the knowledge of employees performing master servicing functions
shall not be imputed to employees performing special servicing functions.


 


Section 3.02 Liability
of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer When Sub-Servicing. Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any
of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as
applicable, and any Person acting as sub-servicer (or its agents or Subcontractors) or any reference to actions taken through
any Person acting as sub-servicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall remain obligated
and primarily liable to the Trustee (on behalf of the Certificateholders), the Certificateholders the Certificateholders and,
with respect to the Serviced Whole Loans, the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, for the servicing and administering of the
Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation
or liability by virtue of such sub-servicing agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Depositor or
any other Person acting as sub-servicer (or its agents or Subcontractors) to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions
as if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans and
Serviced Companion Loans. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with
any sub-servicer providing for indemnification of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, by such sub-servicer,
and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification, but no such agreement for indemnification
shall be deemed to limit or modify this Agreement.

Loans and any related


 






    -202-

to Specially Serviced Loans) shall use reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of

or the Serviced Companion Loans; provided, further, that with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related
Serviced Companion Loans, as applicable, that have Anticipated Repayment Dates, so long as the related Borrower is in compliance
with each provision of the related Loan Documents, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer (including the Special Servicer in
its capacity as a Certificateholder, if applicable) shall not take any enforcement action with respect to the failure of the related
Borrower to make any payment of Excess Interest, other than requests for collection, until the final maturity date of such Mortgage
Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, or the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan,
as applicable, has been paid in full, however, consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer, or the
Special Servicer each may in its discretion waive the Excess Interest (even at the final maturity date) in connection with any
Mortgage Loan it is obligated to service hereunder if taking such action is in the best interest of the Certificateholders as
a collective whole. With respect to each Performing Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall
use its reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to collect income statements and rent rolls from Borrowers
as required by the Loan Documents and the terms hereof. The Master Servicer shall provide at least 90 days’ notice (with
a copy to the Special Servicer) to the Borrowers of Balloon Payments coming due on Performing Loans (other than a Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan). Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer (with respect to each Performing Loan) or the Special Servicer
(with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) may in their discretion waive any late payment charge or Default Interest it is entitled
to receive in connection with any delinquent Periodic Payment or Balloon Payment with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced
Companion Loan that it is servicing. In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to take such actions with respect to
the collection of payments on the Mortgage Loans and the Serviced Companion Loans as are permitted or required under this Agreement.

Loans that it is servicing, shall maintain accurate records with respect to each related Mortgaged Property reflecting the status

any such payment on a timely basis or collections from the Borrower are insufficient to pay any such item before the applicable

Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance (provided
that with respect to advancing insurance premiums or delinquent tax assessments the Master Servicer shall comply with the
provisions of the second to last paragraph in Section 3.21(d) of this Agreement). The Master Servicer shall be entitled
to reimbursement of Servicing Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, that it makes pursuant to this Section
3.04 of this Agreement from amounts received on or in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan respecting

Mortgage Loans or Serviced Companion Loans so permit.


 


The parties acknowledge

Loans pursuant to the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Other Servicer (or other service provider) shall be entitled
to reimbursement for nonrecoverable Servicing Advances (as such term or similar term may be defined in the related Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement) with, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon provided for under the related Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement in the manner set forth in such Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the related Intercreditor Agreement
and Section 3.06(a)(v) of this Agreement.

bearing accounts (collectively, the “Loss of Value Reserve Fund”) to be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders,

Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall, upon receipt, deposit in the Loss of Value Reserve
Fund all Loss of Value Payments received by it. The Certificate Administrator shall account for the Loss of Value Reserve Fund
as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) and not an asset of any Trust REMIC or
the Grantor Trust. Furthermore, for all federal tax purposes, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) treat amounts paid out of
the Loss of Value Reserve Fund through the Collection Account to the Certificateholders as contributed to and distributed by the
Trust REMICs and (ii) treat any amounts paid out of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund through the Collection Account to a Mortgage
Loan Seller as distributions by the Trust Fund to such Mortgage Loan Seller as beneficial owner of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund.
The applicable Mortgage Loan Seller will be the beneficial owner of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund for all federal income tax purposes,
and shall be taxable on all income earned thereon.


 


(e)       The
Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain the Interest Reserve Account in its own name for the benefit of the Trustee,

to withdraw from the Lower-Tier Distribution Account and deposit or be deemed to deposit in the Interest Reserve Account an amount
equal to the aggregate of the Withheld Amounts calculated in accordance with the previous sentence. If the Certificate Administrator


 






    -209-


     


    

 


shall deposit in the Interest Reserve Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such
amount from the Interest Reserve Account any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. On or prior to the Master Servicer

Administrator shall transfer to the Lower-Tier Distribution Account the aggregate of all Withheld Amounts on deposit in the Interest
Reserve Account.

provided, that any amounts so paid shall be deemed allocated, (a) if relating to a particular Mortgage Loan, to such Mortgage

and the related trust of the applicable Other Securitization by the holder of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to the applicable
Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


The
Master Servicer shall pay to the Special Servicer from the Collection Account amounts permitted to be paid to it therefrom promptly
upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer of the Special Servicer describing the item and amount to which the Special
Servicer is entitled. The Master Servicer may rely conclusively on any such certificate and shall have no duty to re-calculate
the amounts stated therein. The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting for each Specially Serviced Loan
and Serviced REO Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan, on a loan-by-loan and property-by-property basis, for the purpose
of justifying any request for withdrawal from the Collection Account.


 


The
Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting records, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, reflecting amounts
allocable to each Mortgage Loan, and on a property-by-property basis when appropriate, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal,
debit or credit from the Collection Account or the Trust Ledger. Upon written request, the Master Servicer shall provide to the
Certificate Administrator such records and any other information in the possession of the Master Servicer to enable the Certificate
Administrator to determine the amounts attributable to (i) the Lower-Tier REMIC with respect to the Mortgage Loans, (ii) the Excess
Interest and (iii) the Companion Loans.


 


The
Master Servicer shall pay to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer,
the Special Servicer, the Other Trustee, the Other Servicer or the Other Special Servicer, from the Collection Account amounts
permitted to be paid to such Person therefrom, promptly upon receipt of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee,
a responsible officer of the Other Trustee, a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator, a certificate of an officer
of the Operating Advisor, a certificate of an officer of the Asset Representations Reviewer, a certificate of a Servicing Officer
or a certificate of the Other Servicer or Other Special Servicer, as applicable, describing the item and amount to which such
Person is entitled (unless such payment to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer, the Special Servicer, the Other Trustee, the Other Servicer or Other Special Servicer, as the case may be, is specifically
required pursuant to this Agreement and the timing and the amount of payment is specified in, or


 






    -222-


     


    

 


calculable
pursuant to, this Agreement, in which case a certificate is not required). The Master Servicer may rely conclusively on any such
certificate and shall have no duty to recalculate the amounts stated therein.


 


The
Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, CREFC®, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan Service Providers (to the extent specified in Section
12.12) shall in all cases have a right prior to the Certificateholders to any funds on deposit in the Collection Account from
time to time for the reimbursement or payment of the Servicing Compensation (including investment income), Certificate Administrator/Trustee
Fees, Special Servicing Compensation (including investment income), the CREFC® Intellectual Property Royalty License
Fee, Operating Advisor Fees, Operating Advisor Consulting Fees (but only to the extent such Operating Advisor Consulting Fees
are actually received from the Borrowers), the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee (to the extent owed by the Trust
pursuant to Section 11.02(c) of this Agreement), Advances, Advance Interest Amounts (for each of such Persons other than
CREFC®), their respective indemnification payments (if any) pursuant to Section 6.03, Section 8.05
or Section 12.02 of this Agreement (for each of such Persons other than CREFC®), their respective expenses
hereunder to the extent such fees and expenses are to be reimbursed or paid from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account
pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any fees or expenses (including legal fees) for which a party is to be
indemnified pursuant to Section 6.03 herein may be submitted directly to the Trust Fund and paid from amounts on deposit
in the Collection Account on behalf of such party pursuant to this Agreement. In addition, the Certificate Administrator, the
Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall in all
cases have a right prior to the Certificateholders to any funds on deposit in the Collection Account from time to time for the
reimbursement and payment of any federal, state or local taxes imposed on any Trust REMIC.


 


Upon
the determination that a previously made Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would
exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Mortgage Loans (or with respect to Servicing Advances,
the Serviced Whole Loans) deposited in the Collection Account and available for distribution on the next Distribution Date, the
Master Servicer or the Trustee, each at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement
for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to Section 3.06(a) or Section 3.06(b) of this Agreement
immediately, may elect to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement for such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the
Collection Period ending on the then-current Determination Date for successive one-month periods for a total period not to exceed
12 months (with the consent of the Directing Holder, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing,
for any deferral in excess of 6 months). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election at its sole option and in
its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest
thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable
in the subsequent Collection Period (subject, again, to the same sole discretion to elect to defer; it is acknowledged that, in
such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be payable first from principal collections as described
above prior to payment from other collections). In connection


 






    -223-


     


    

 


with
a potential election by the Master Servicer or the Trustee to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable
Advance or portion thereof during the one-month Collection Period ending on the related Determination Date for any
Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized (in its sole discretion) to wait for
principal collections on the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans to be received before making its determination of
whether to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance (or portion thereof) until the end of such
Collection Period; provided, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts to give notice of its
election to the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s
Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement), at least 15 days prior to any reimbursement to it of
Nonrecoverable Advances from amounts in the Collection Account allocable to interest on the Mortgage Loans unless (1) the
Master Servicer or the Trustee determines in its sole discretion that waiting 15 days after such a notice could jeopardize
its ability to recover Nonrecoverable Advances, (2) changed circumstances or new or different information becomes known to
the Master Servicer or the Trustee that could affect or cause a determination of whether any Advance is a Nonrecoverable
Advance, whether to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance or the determination in clause (1) above, or (3) the
Master Servicer or the Trustee has not timely received from the Certificate Administrator information requested by the Master
Servicer or the Trustee to consider in determining whether to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided
that, if clause (1), (2) or (3) apply, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall give notice of an anticipated
reimbursement to it of Nonrecoverable Advances from amounts in the Collection Account allocable to interest on the Mortgage
Loans as soon as reasonably practicable in such circumstances to the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such
notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement). Neither the
Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall have any liability for any loss, liability or expense resulting from any notice
provided to each Rating Agency contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence.


 


The
foregoing shall not, however, be construed to limit any liability that may otherwise be imposed on such Person for any failure
by such Person to comply with the conditions to making such an election under this Section 3.06(a) or to comply with the
terms of this Section 3.06(a) and the other provisions of this Agreement that apply once such an election, if any, has
been made. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, that it should recover the
Nonrecoverable Advances without deferral as described above, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be
entitled to immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from all amounts
in the Collection Accounts for such Distribution Date. Any such election by any such party to refrain from reimbursing itself
or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more Collection Periods
shall not limit the accrual of interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual
reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, election to defer
reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Certificateholders and, as applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders and shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Master Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Certificateholders or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders. Nothing herein shall
be deemed to create in the Certificateholders or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders a right


 






    -224-


     


    

 


to
prior payment of distributions over the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, right to reimbursement
for Advances (deferred or otherwise). In all events, the decision to defer reimbursement or to seek immediate reimbursement of
Nonrecoverable Advances shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and neither the Master Servicer, the Trustee
nor the other parties to this Agreement shall have any liability to one another or to any of the Certificateholders or any of
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders for any such election that such party makes as contemplated by this Section 3.06(a)
or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election.


 


None
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall be permitted to reverse any other Person’s determination,
or to prohibit any such other authorized Person from making a determination, that an Advance constitutes, or would constitute
a Nonrecoverable Advance.


 


If
the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan Service Provider, as applicable, is reimbursed out of general
collections for any unreimbursed Advances that are determined to be Nonrecoverable Advances (together with any Advance Interest
Amount), then (for purposes of calculating distributions on the Certificates) such reimbursement and payment of interest shall
be deemed to have been made: first, out of the Principal Distribution Amount, which, but for its application to reimburse
a Nonrecoverable Advance and/or to pay the Advance Interest Amount, would be included in Available Funds for any subsequent Distribution
Date and, second, out of other amounts which, but for their application to reimburse a Nonrecoverable Advance and/or to
pay the Advance Interest Amount, would be included in Available Funds for any subsequent Distribution Date.


 


If
and to the extent that any payment is deemed to be applied as contemplated in the paragraph above to reimburse a Nonrecoverable
Advance or to pay the Advance Interest Amount, then the Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date shall be reduced,
to not less than zero, by the amount of such reimbursement. If and to the extent (i) any Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable
Advance, (ii) such Advance and/or the Advance Interest Amount is reimbursed out of the Principal Distribution Amount as contemplated
above and (iii) the particular item for which such Advance was originally made is subsequently collected out of payments or other
collections in respect of the related Mortgage Loan, then the Principal Distribution Amount for the Distribution Date that corresponds
to the Collection Period in which such item was recovered shall be increased by an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount
of such item and (B) any previous reduction in the Principal Distribution Amount for a prior Distribution Date as contemplated
in the paragraph above resulting from the reimbursement of the subject Advance and/or the payment of the Advance Interest Amount.


 


(b)           The
Master Servicer shall maintain a separate Trust Ledger with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan that it is servicing on which
it shall make ledger entries as to amounts deposited (or credited) or withdrawn (or debited) with respect thereto. On each Master
Servicer Remittance Date (or such other date as may be specified below or on which funds are available for such purpose as specified
below), with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall make withdrawals from amounts allocated thereto in
the related Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account (and may debit the Trust Ledger) for any of the following purposes (the order
set forth below not constituting an order of priority for such withdrawals):

such investment and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Certificate
Administrator or its agent (which shall initially be the Master Servicer), together with any document of transfer, if any, necessary
to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee or its nominee. Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee

shall
have any responsibility or liability with respect to the investment directions of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any
Borrower or Manager or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise. The Master Servicer shall
have no responsibility or liability with respect to the investment directions of the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator,
the Trustee, any Borrower or Manager or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise. The Special
Servicer shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to the investment directions of the Master Servicer, the Certificate
Administrator, the Trustee, any Borrower or Manager or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise.
In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand,
the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable) shall:


 


(x)           consistent
with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment
may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount
required to be withdrawn on such date; and


 


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


 


(b)           All
income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in any Investment Account shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer
(except with respect to the investment of funds deposited in (i) any Borrower Account, which shall be for the benefit of the related
Borrower to the extent required under the related Loan Documents for the Mortgage Loan or applicable law, (ii) any REO Account
and the Loss of Value Reserve Fund, which shall be for the benefit of the Special Servicer or (iii) the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account,
the Interest Reserve Account and the Distribution Accounts, which shall be for the benefit of the Certificate Administrator) and,
if held in the Collection Account, any Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account, REO Account or Distribution Account shall be subject
to withdrawal by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, in accordance with
Section 3.06 or Section 3.15(b) of this Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer, or with respect to any REO
Account or Loss of Value Reserve Fund, the Special Servicer, or with respect to the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account or the Distribution
Accounts, the Certificate Administrator, shall deposit from its own funds into the Collection Account, applicable Serviced Whole
Loan Collection Account, any REO Account or Loss of Value Reserve Fund, the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account or the Distribution Accounts, as applicable, the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment
immediately upon realization of such loss; provided, that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate
Administrator, as applicable, may reduce the amount of such payment to the extent it forgoes any investment income in such Investment
Account otherwise payable to it. The Master Servicer shall also deposit from its own funds in any Borrower Account immediately
upon realization of such loss the amount of any loss incurred in respect of Permitted Investments, except to the extent that amounts
are invested at the direction of or for the benefit of the Borrower under the terms of the related Loan Documents for the Mortgage
Loan, Serviced

Whole
Loan or applicable law; provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to deposit
any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the
federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository
institution or trust company has satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Account both (x) at the
time the investment was made and (y) 30 days prior to such insolvency.


 


(c)           Except
as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment,
or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, in either case as a result of an action
or inaction of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, the Trustee may, and
upon the request of Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class shall, take such
action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate
proceedings. If the Trustee takes any such action, (i) the Master Servicer, if such Permitted Investment was for the benefit of
the Master Servicer, (ii) the Special Servicer, if such Permitted Investment was for the benefit of the Special Servicer or (iii)
the Certificate Administrator, if such Permitted Investment was for the benefit of the Certificate Administrator, shall pay or
reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in
connection therewith.


 


Section
3.08     Maintenance of Insurance Policies and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a)
In the case of each Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable (but excluding any REO Loan),
the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Borrower,
with respect to the Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans that it is servicing, to maintain the following
insurance coverage (including identifying the extent to which such Borrower is maintaining insurance coverage and, if such Borrower
does not so maintain, the Master Servicer will itself cause to be maintained with Qualified Insurers) for the related Mortgaged
Property: (x) except where the Loan Documents permit a Borrower to rely on self-insurance provided by a tenant, a fire and casualty
extended coverage insurance policy, which does not provide for reduction due to depreciation, in an amount that is at least equal
to the lesser of (i) the full replacement cost of improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and (ii) the
Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, but, in any event, in an amount sufficient
to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause and (y) all other insurance coverage (including, but not limited to, coverage
for acts of terrorism) that is required, subject to applicable law, under the related Loan Documents; provided, that:


 


(i)        the
Master Servicer shall not be required to maintain any earthquake or environmental insurance policy on any Mortgaged Property unless
the Trustee has an insurable interest and (x) such insurance policy was in effect at the time of the origination of the related
Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, or (y) such insurance policy was required by the related Loan Documents and
is available at commercially reasonable rates, provided that the Master Servicer shall require the related Borrower to
maintain such insurance in the amount, in the case of clause (x), maintained at origination, and in the case of clause (y), required
by such Mortgage Loan or Serviced


 






    -237-


     


    

 


Whole
Loan, in each case, to the extent such amounts are available at commercially reasonable rates and to the extent the Trustee has
an insurable interest;


 


(ii)       if
and to the extent that any Loan Document grants the lender thereunder any discretion (by way of consent, approval or otherwise)
as to the insurance provider from whom the related Borrower is to obtain the requisite insurance coverage, the Master Servicer
shall (to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard) require the related Borrower to obtain the requisite insurance coverage
from Qualified Insurers;


 


(iii)      the
Master Servicer shall have no obligation beyond using its reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause any
Borrower to maintain the insurance required to be maintained under the Loan Documents; provided, that this clause shall
not limit the Master Servicer’s obligation to obtain and maintain a force-placed insurance policy, as provided herein;


 


(iv)      except
as provided below (including under clause (vi) below), in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to cause the Borrower
to maintain, or itself obtain, insurance coverage to the extent that the failure of such Borrower to maintain insurance coverage
is an Acceptable Insurance Default (as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable);


 


(v)       to
the extent that the Master Servicer itself is required to maintain insurance that the Borrower does not maintain, the Master Servicer
will not be required to maintain insurance other than what is available to the Master Servicer on a force-placed basis at commercially
reasonable rates, and only to the extent the Trust as lender has an insurable interest thereon; and


 


(vi)      any
explicit terrorism insurance requirements contained in the related Loan Documents shall be enforced by the Master Servicer in
accordance with the Servicing Standard (unless the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with the consent of,
if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder, and after consultation with the Risk Retention
Consultation Party and the Operating Advisor pursuant to Section 6.07, has consented to a waiver (including a waiver to
permit the Master Servicer to accept insurance that does not comply with specific requirements contained in the Loan Documents)
in writing of that provision in accordance with the Servicing Standard); provided that the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Other Servicer in writing of such waiver.


 


The
Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Directing Holder if the
Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that a Borrower under a Serviced Mortgage Loan has failed
to maintain insurance required under the Loan Documents and such failure materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders or if a Borrower under a Serviced Mortgage Loan has notified the Master Servicer in writing that the Borrower
does not intend to maintain such insurance and that the Master Servicer has determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard
that such failure materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders.


 






    -238-


     


    

 


Subject
to Section 3.15(b) of this Agreement, with respect to each Serviced REO Property, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable
efforts and only if the Trustee has an insurable interest, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to maintain (subject to the
right of the Special Servicer to direct the Master Servicer to make a Servicing Advance for the costs associated with coverage
that the Special Servicer determines to maintain, in which case the Master Servicer shall make such Servicing Advance) with Qualified
Insurers to the extent reasonably available at commercially reasonable rates and to the extent the Trustee has an insurable interest,
(a) a fire and casualty extended coverage insurance policy, which does not provide for reduction due to depreciation, in an amount
that is at least equal to the lesser of the full replacement value of the Mortgaged Property or the Stated Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loan, Serviced REO Loan or the Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable (or such greater amount of coverage required by
the related Loan Documents (unless such amount is not available or, if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing,
the Directing Holder has consented to a lower amount)), but, in any event, in an amount sufficient to avoid the application of
any co-insurance clause, (b) a comprehensive general liability insurance policy with coverage comparable to that which would be
required under prudent lending requirements and in an amount not less than $1.0 million per occurrence, and (c) to the extent
consistent with the Servicing Standard, a business interruption or rental loss insurance covering revenues or rents for a period
of at least 12 months; provided, that the Special Servicer shall not be required in any event to maintain or obtain insurance
coverage described in this paragraph beyond what is reasonably available at a commercially reasonable rate and consistent with
the Servicing Standard.


 


All
such insurance policies maintained as described above shall contain (if they insure against loss to property) a “standard”
mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Master Servicer (on behalf of the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders and, with
respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders), or shall name the Trustee as the insured,
with loss payable to the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (on behalf of Certificateholders and, with respect to a Serviced
Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders) (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of an REO Property).
Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, under any such policies (other than amounts to
be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or Serviced REO Property or amounts to be released to
the related Borrower, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard) shall be deposited in the Collection Account (or,
in the case of the Serviced Whole Loans, in the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account), subject to withdrawal pursuant
to Section 3.06 of this Agreement, in the case of amounts received in respect of a Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related
Serviced Companion Loan, or in the applicable REO Account of the Special Servicer, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.15 of this Agreement, in the case of amounts received in respect of a Serviced REO Property. Any cost incurred by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for purposes hereof, including calculating monthly
distributions to Certificateholders or Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, be added to the Stated Principal Balance of the related
Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan so permit; provided,
that this sentence shall not limit the rights of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund to enforce
any obligations of the related Borrower under such Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan. Any costs incurred
by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such


 






    -239-


     


    

 


insurance
policies in respect of the Mortgage Loans or Specially Serviced Loans (other than REO Properties) (i) if the Borrower defaults
on its obligation to do so, shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance and will be charged to the related
Borrower and (ii) shall not, for purposes of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the Stated Principal
Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit. Any cost incurred by the
Special Servicer in maintaining any such insurance policies with respect to Serviced REO Properties shall be an expense of the
Trust Fund (and in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions
of the related Intercreditor Agreement) payable out of the related REO Account (or Serviced Whole Loan REO Account, as applicable)
or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (or paid
from the Collection Account if the Master Servicer determines such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, subject to Section
3.21(d) of this Agreement).


 


(b)           If
either:


 


(x)
the Master Servicer or Special Servicer obtains and maintains, or causes to be obtained and maintained, a blanket policy or master
force-placed policy insuring against hazard losses on all of the Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans
or Serviced REO Properties, as applicable, then, to the extent such policy


 


(i)          is
obtained from a Qualified Insurer, and


 


(ii)         provides
protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, or


 


(y)
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or, in each case, its corporate parent), as applicable, has long-term unsecured debt
obligations or deposit accounts that are rated not lower than “A-” by Fitch and “A-” or its equivalent
by S&P and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer self-insures for its obligation to maintain the individual policies otherwise
required,


 


then
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause hazard insurance
to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties or Serviced REO Properties, as applicable.


 


Such
a blanket or master force-placed policy may contain a deductible clause (not in excess of a customary amount), in which case the
Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, that maintains such policy shall, if there shall not have been maintained
on any Mortgaged Property securing a Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced REO Property thereunder a hazard insurance policy complying
with the requirements of Section 3.08(a) of this Agreement, and there shall have been one or more losses that would have
been covered by such an individual policy, promptly deposit into the Collection Account (or, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan,
in the related Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account), from its own funds, the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket
or master force-placed policy in connection with such loss or losses because of such deductible clause to the extent that any
such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan or the related Serviced Whole Loan,
as applicable (or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible


 






    -240-


     


    

 


limitation
for an individual policy which is consistent with the Servicing Standard). The Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall prepare
and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, Certificateholders and, if applicable the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders,
claims under any such blanket or master force-placed policy maintained by it in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms
of such policy. If the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, causes any Mortgaged Property securing a Serviced Mortgage
Loan or Serviced REO Property to be covered by such “force-placed” insurance policy, the incremental costs of such
insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property or Serviced REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium
payable for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or Serviced REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid as a
Servicing Advance.


 


(c)           With
respect to each Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan that is subject to an Environmental Insurance Policy,
if the Master Servicer has actual knowledge of any event giving rise to a claim under an Environmental Insurance Policy, the Master
Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer to such effect and the Master Servicer shall take reasonable actions as are in accordance
with the Servicing Standard and the terms and conditions of such Environmental Insurance Policy to make a claim thereunder and
achieve the payment of all amounts to which the Trust is entitled thereunder. With respect to each Specially Serviced Loan and
Serviced REO Property that is subject to an Environmental Insurance Policy, if the Special Servicer has actual knowledge of any
event giving rise to a claim under an Environmental Insurance Policy, such Special Servicer shall take reasonable actions as are
in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms and conditions of such Environmental Insurance Policy to make a claim
thereunder and achieve the payment of all amounts to which the Trust, on behalf of the Certificateholders and, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (giving due regard to the junior nature of the related Subordinate Companion Loan, if
any), is entitled thereunder. Any legal fees or other out-of-pocket costs incurred in accordance with the Servicing Standard in
connection with any claim under an Environmental Insurance Policy described above (whether by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer)
shall be paid by, and reimbursable to, the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance.


 


(d)           The
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall at all times during the term of this Agreement (or, in the case of the Special
Servicer, at all times during the term of this Agreement during which Specially Serviced Loans and/or Serviced REO Properties
as to which it is the Special Servicer are included in the Trust Fund) keep in force with a Qualified Insurer, a fidelity bond
in such form and amount as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer and Special Servicer, as applicable,
shall be deemed to have complied with the foregoing provision if an Affiliate thereof has such fidelity bond coverage and, by
the terms of such fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, as the
case may be. Such fidelity bond shall provide that it may not be canceled without ten days’ prior written notice to the
Trustee. So long as the long-term unsecured debt obligations or deposit accounts of the Master Servicer (or its corporate parent
if such insurance is guaranteed by its parent) or the Special Servicer (or its corporate parent), as applicable, are rated not
lower than “A-” by Fitch, “A-” or its equivalent by S&P), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as applicable, may self-insure with respect to the fidelity bond coverage required as described above, in which case it shall
not be required to maintain an insurance policy with respect to such coverage.


 






    -241-


     


    

 


The
Master Servicer and Special Servicer, as applicable, shall at all times during the term of this Agreement (or, in the case of
the Special Servicer, at all times during the term of this Agreement during which Specially Serviced Loans and/or Serviced REO
Properties exist as part of the Trust Fund) also keep in force with a Qualified Insurer a policy or policies of insurance covering
loss occasioned by the errors and omissions of its officers and employees in connection with their servicing obligations hereunder,
which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be deemed to have complied with the foregoing provisions if an Affiliate thereof has
such insurance and, by the terms of such policy or policies, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Master Servicer or
Special Servicer, as the case may be. Any such errors and omissions policy shall provide that it may not be canceled without ten
days’ prior written notice to the Trustee. So long as the long-term unsecured debt obligations or deposit accounts of the
Master Servicer (or its corporate parent if such insurance is guaranteed by its parent) or the Special Servicer (or its corporate
parent), as applicable, are rated not lower than “A-” by Fitch, “A-” or its equivalent by S&P, the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may self-insure with respect to the errors and omissions coverage required
as described above, in which case it shall not be required to maintain an insurance policy with respect to such coverage.


 


Section
3.09     Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements; Defeasance Provisions.     (a)
If any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-sale”
clause (including, without limitation, sales or transfers of Mortgaged Properties (in full or part) or the sale, transfer, pledge
or hypothecation of direct or indirect interests in the Borrower or its owners), which by its terms:


 


(i)        provides
that such Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan will (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become
due and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an interest in the related Mortgaged Property (including, without limitation,
the sale, transfer, pledge or hypothecation of direct or indirect interests in the Borrower or its owners),


 


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


 


(iii)      provides
that such Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan may be assumed or transferred without the consent of
the mortgagee, provided certain conditions set forth in the Loan Documents are satisfied,


 


then,
the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), to the extent such action is not
a Special Servicer Major Decision) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and, to the extent such action
is a Special Servicer Major Decision, Performing Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans)) shall determine, in each case
in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, whether to (a) exercise
any right it may have with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon
or (y) to grant or withhold its consent to any sale or transfer, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) waive any right
to exercise such rights; provided that, (i) with respect to such consent or


 






    -242-


     


    

 


waiver
of rights that is a Major Decision, prior to itself taking such an action, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,
shall obtain, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the prior written consent (or deemed consent)
of the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 (or (A)(1) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control
Termination Event, but prior to a Consultation Termination Event and (2) other than with respect to any applicable Conflicted
Loan, upon consultation with the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant to Section 6.07 and
(B) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, upon consultation with the Operating
Advisor pursuant to Section 6.07), and (ii) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer processing such action, prior to
consenting to such action, shall obtain, a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to the Certificates
and Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any, in the case of any such Mortgage Loan that (1) represents more than 5% of the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then outstanding and has a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000,
(2) has a Stated Principal Balance that is more than $35,000,000, (3) represents one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans or groups
of cross-collateralized Mortgage Loans based on Stated Principal Balance and has a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000,
or (4) is a Mortgage Loan as to which the related Serviced Companion Loan (A) represents one of the ten largest mortgage loans
in the related Other Securitization based on outstanding principal balance and has an outstanding principal balance of at least
$10,000,000, (B) represents more than 5% of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the mortgage loans then outstanding
in the related Other Securitization and has an outstanding principal balance of at least $10,000,000 or (C) has an outstanding
principal balance that is more than $35,000,000 (provided that the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable,
shall be entitled to request and reasonably rely upon the written notification provided by the master servicer, special servicer,
trustee or certificate administrator of the applicable Other Securitization as to whether any condition in clause (4)(A) or (B)
is met, or if no timely response is received, entitled to reasonably rely on the most recent CREFC® reports related to the
applicable Other Securitization).


 


The
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer processing such action shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing
Holder and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, that any such assumption or substitution agreement has
been completed by forwarding to the Custodian (with a copy to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee
and the Directing Holder, as applicable) the original copy of such agreement, which copies shall be added to the related Mortgage
File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments
constituting a part thereof. To the extent not precluded by the Loan Documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer
shall approve an assumption or substitution without requiring the related Borrower to pay any fees owed to the Rating Agencies
associated with the approval of such assumption or substitution. However, if the related Borrower is required but fails to pay
such fees, such fees shall be an expense of the Trust Fund (and in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, such expense shall be
allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement); provided that in the case
of a Serviced Whole Loan the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer processing such action shall be required, after receiving
payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, if any, to (i) promptly notify the holder of the related Companion
Loan and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to exercise on behalf of the Trust Fund the rights of the Trust Fund under the


 






    -243-


     


    

 


related
Intercreditor Agreement to obtain reimbursement for a pro rata portion of such amount allocable to the related Serviced
Companion Loan from the holders of such Serviced Companion Loan.


 


Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Conflicted Loan relating to the Controlling Class Representative
(regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions
involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor,
in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.07 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.


 


(b)           If
any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance”
clause, which by its terms:


 


(i)          provides
that such Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become
due and payable upon the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or any direct or indirect
ownership interest in the borrower (including, unless specifically permitted, any mezzanine financing of the Borrower or the Mortgaged
Property or any sale or transfer of preferred equity in the Borrower or its owners),


 


(ii)          requires
the consent of the related mortgagee to the creation of any such lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property (including,
without limitation, any mezzanine financing of the Borrower or the Mortgaged Property or any sale or transfer of preferred equity
in the Borrower or its owners), or


 


(iii)        provides
that such Mortgaged Property may be further encumbered without the consent of the mortgagee (including, without limitation, any
mezzanine financing of the Borrower or the Mortgaged Property or any sale or transfer of preferred equity in the Borrower or its
owners), provided certain conditions set forth in the Loan Documents are satisfied,


 


then,
the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), to the extent such action is not
a Special Servicer Major Decision) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and, to the extent such action
is a Special Servicer Major Decision, Performing Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans)) shall determine, in each case
in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, whether to (a) exercise
any right it may have with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon
or (y) to withhold its consent to the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance, consistent with the Servicing Standard
or (b) grant or waive its right to exercise such rights; provided that, (i) with respect to such consent or waiver of rights
that is a Major Decision, prior to itself taking such an action, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall
obtain, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the prior written consent (or deemed consent)
of the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 (or (A)(1) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control
Termination Event, but prior to a Consultation

Termination
Event and (2) other than with respect to any applicable Conflicted Loan, upon consultation with the Directing Holder and Risk
Retention Consultation Party pursuant to Section 6.07 and (B) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating
Advisor Consultation Event, upon consultation with the Operating Advisor pursuant to Section 6.07), and (ii) the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer processing such action, prior to consenting to such action, shall obtain, a Rating Agency Confirmation
from each Rating Agency with respect to the Certificates and Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any, in the case of any such
Mortgage Loan that (1) represents more than 2% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then outstanding,
(2) has a Stated Principal Balance that is more than $20,000,000, (3) represents one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans or groups
of cross-collateralized Mortgage Loans based on Stated Principal Balance, (4) has an aggregate loan-to-value ratio (including
any existing and proposed additional debt) that is equal to or greater than 85%, (5) has an aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio
(in each case, determined based upon the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, any existing
additional debt and the principal amount of the proposed additional lien) that is less than 1.20x or (6) is a Mortgage Loan as
to which the related Serviced Companion Loan (A) represents one of the ten largest mortgage loans in the related Other Securitization
based on outstanding principal balance, (B) represents more than 2% of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the mortgage
loans then outstanding in the related Other Securitization or (C) has an outstanding principal balance that is more than $20,000,000
(provided, that the Special Servicer shall be entitled to request and reasonably rely upon the written notification provided by
the master servicer, special servicer, trustee or certificate administrator of the applicable Other Securitization as to whether
any condition in clause (6)(A) or (B) is met, or if no timely response is received, entitled to reasonably rely on the most recent
CREFC® reports related to the applicable Other Securitization); provided that with respect to clauses (1), (3), (4) and (5),
such Mortgage Loan shall have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for the requirement of a Rating Agency Confirmation
to apply.


 


The
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer processing such action shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing
Holder and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, that the creation of any lien or other encumbrance has
been completed by forwarding to the Custodian (with a copy to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee
and the Directing Holder, as applicable) the original copy (if available, and otherwise, a copy) of the document creating such
lien or encumbrance, which copies shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part
of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. To the extent not
precluded by the Loan Documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall approve the creation of any lien or
other encumbrance without requiring the related Borrower to pay any fees owed to the Rating Agencies associated with the approval
of such lien or encumbrance. However, if the related Borrower is required but fails to pay such fees, such fees shall be an expense
of the Trust Fund (and in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation
provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement); provided that in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer processing such action shall be required, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection
Account, if any, to (i) promptly notify the holder of the related Companion Loan and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts
to exercise on behalf of the Trust Fund the rights of the Trust Fund under the related Intercreditor Agreement to obtain


 






    -245-


     


    

 


reimbursement
for a pro rata portion of such amount allocable to the related Serviced Companion Loan from the holders of such Serviced
Companion Loan.


 


Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Conflicted Loan relating to the Controlling Class Representative
(regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions
involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor,
in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.07 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.


 


(c)           Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive its rights or grant its
consent under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause relating to any Mortgage Loan without,
if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Directing Holder. The Directing Holder shall
have 10 Business Days (or longer period provided by the related Intercreditor Agreement) after receipt of notice along with the
Special Servicer’s recommendation and analysis with respect to such waiver and any additional information the Directing
Holder may reasonably request from the Special Servicer of a proposed waiver or consent under any “due-on-sale” or
“due-on-encumbrance” clause in which to grant or withhold its consent (provided that if the Special Servicer fails
to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Holder in writing within such period, then the Directing Holder shall
be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver or consent).


 


(d)           The
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide copies of any waivers it effects pursuant to Section
3.09(a) or (b) of this Agreement to the other party, the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such waivers
to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement) and the related Other
17g-5 Information Provider (if any) with respect to each Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan.


 


(e)           Nothing
in this Section 3.09 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee’s right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice
of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or the creation of any lien
or other encumbrance with respect to such Mortgaged Property.


 


(f)            In
connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this Section 3.09, the Special Servicer shall
not agree to modify, waive or amend, and no assumption or substitution agreement entered into pursuant to Section 3.09(a)
of this Agreement shall contain any terms that are different from, any term of any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced
Companion Loan or the related Mortgage Note, other than pursuant to Section 3.26 hereof, as applicable.


 






    -246-


     


    

 


(g)          With
respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan which permits release of Mortgaged Properties through
defeasance:


 


(i)        Subject
to the consent rights and processes set forth in Section 6.07 with respect to Major Decisions, the Master Servicer shall
process all defeasances of Serviced Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans in accordance with the terms of the related Loan
Documents, and shall be entitled to any defeasance fees paid relating thereto (provided that for the avoidance of doubt, any such
defeasance fee shall not include the Special Servicer’s portion of any Modification Fees or waiver fees in connection with
a defeasance that the Special Servicer is entitled to under this Agreement).


 


(ii)       If
such Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan requires that the lender purchase the required government
securities, then the Master Servicer shall purchase, or shall cause the purchase of, such obligations on behalf of the Trust,
at the related Borrower’s expense, in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Loan; provided that the Master Servicer
shall not accept the amounts paid by the related Borrower to effect defeasance until acceptable government securities have been
identified.


 


(iii)      To
the extent not inconsistent with such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall require the related Borrower
to provide an Opinion of Counsel (which shall be an expense of the related Borrower) to the effect that the Trustee has a first
priority perfected security interest in the defeasance collateral (including the government securities) and the assignment of
the defeasance collateral is valid and enforceable; such opinion, together with any other certificates or documents to be required
in connection with such defeasance shall be in form and substance acceptable to each Rating Agency.


 


(iv)      To
the extent not inconsistent with such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall require a certificate at
the related Borrower’s expense from an Independent certified public accountant certifying to the effect that the government
securities will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity)
on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the related Loan Documents.


 


(v)       Prior
to permitting the release of any Mortgaged Property through defeasance, the Master Servicer shall obtain, at the related Borrower’s
expense, a Rating Agency Confirmation; provided, the Master Servicer shall not be required to obtain such Rating Agency
Confirmation from any Rating Agency if such Mortgage Loan at the time of such defeasance is not (x) a Mortgage Loan that (together
with any Mortgage Loans cross-collateralized with such Mortgage Loan) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal
Balance, (y) a Mortgage Loan with a Stated Principal Balance equal to or greater than $20,000,000 or (z) a Mortgage Loan that
represents 5% or more of the Stated Principal Balance of all Mortgage Loans.


 


(vi)      Prior
to permitting release of any Mortgaged Property through defeasance, the Master Servicer shall require an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that such release will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding or cause a tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund under the REMIC


 






    -247-


     


    

 


Provisions;
provided that to the extent not inconsistent with the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, the related Borrower shall
pay the cost related to the Opinion of Counsel (and shall otherwise be a Servicing Advance).


 


(vii)        No
defeasance shall occur on or prior to the second anniversary of the Startup Day of the Trust REMICs, or in the case of any Companion
Loan, the later of the second anniversary of the Startup Day of the Trust REMICs and the second anniversary of the startup day
of any REMIC holding such Companion Loan.


 


(viii)       The
Trustee shall at the expense of the related Borrower (to the extent not inconsistent with the related Loan Documents) hold the
U.S. government securities as pledgee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the Serviced Companion Loan
Noteholders, and the Certificate Administrator shall apply payments of principal and interest received on the government obligations
to the Collection Account (or Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account) in respect of the defeased Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole
Loan according to the payment schedule existing immediately prior to the defeasance.


 


(ix)          The
Master Servicer shall, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, enforce provisions in the Mortgage Loans that it is servicing
requiring Borrowers to pay all reasonable expenses associated with a defeasance.


 


(x)           To
the extent not inconsistent with such Mortgage Loan, or to the extent the related Loan Documents provide the lender with discretion,
the Master Servicer shall require a single purpose entity, formed solely for the purpose of owning and pledging the government
securities related to one or more of the Mortgage Loans, to act as a successor borrower.


 


(xi)          The
Master Servicer may accept as defeasance collateral of any “government security,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation’s
Section 1.860G-(2)(a)(8)(ii), notwithstanding any more restrictive requirements in the Loan Documents; provided, that the
Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel that acceptance of such defeasance collateral will not cause an Adverse REMIC
Event.


 


(xii)         Neither
the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall charge a fee for defeasance in excess of that permitted under the Loan Documents
in the event that the Loan Documents provide for such a fee limitation.


 


(h)          When
the Special Servicer’s consent is requested under this Section 3.09, such consent shall be deemed given 15 Business
Days (or such longer time period pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement but not less than five (5) Business
Days after the time period set forth therein for Directing Holder approval) after receipt (unless earlier objected to) by the
Special Servicer from the Master Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such
proposed action together with such other information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer.


 


Section
3.10     Appraisals; Realization upon Defaulted Loans. (a) Other than with respect to a
Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, contemporaneously with the earliest of (i) the


 






    -248-


     


    

 


effective
date of any (A) modification of the Maturity Date or extended Maturity Date, a Mortgage Rate, principal balance or amortization
terms of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or any other term of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, (B) extension of
the Maturity Date or extended Maturity Date of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan as described below in Section 3.26
of this Agreement, or (C) consent to the release of any Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage other than pursuant
to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, (ii) the occurrence of an Appraisal Reduction Event, (iii) a
default in the payment of a Balloon Payment for which an extension is not granted, or (iv) the date on which the Special Servicer,
consistent with the Servicing Standard, requests an Updated Valuation, the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain an Updated Valuation (or a letter update for an existing appraisal which is less than two years old) within
60 days of such request, the cost of which shall constitute a Servicing Advance; provided, that the Special Servicer shall
not be required to obtain an Updated Valuation pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to any Mortgaged Property
for which there exists an Appraisal, Updated Appraisal or Small Loan Appraisal Estimate which is less than nine months old unless
the Special Servicer has actual knowledge of a material adverse change in circumstances that, consistent with the Servicing Standard,
would call into question the validity of such Appraisal, Updated Appraisal or Small Loan Appraisal Estimate. For so long as such
Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan, (i) the Special Servicer shall, within 30 days of the end of
each 9-month period following the related Appraisal Reduction Event, use commercially reasonable efforts to order an Appraisal
(which may be an update of a prior Appraisal), the cost of which shall constitute a Servicing Advance and (ii) the Master Servicer
shall recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount prior to the Special Servicer granting extensions beyond one year or any subsequent
extension after granting a one year extension with respect to the same Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. Subject to any required
consent from the Directing Holder and consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party and Operating Advisors pursuant
to Section 6.07, nothing herein is intended to limit the Special Servicer’s ability to pursue multiple strategies
contemporaneously if the Special Servicer deems such actions appropriate under the Servicing Standard. The Special Servicer shall
update, in accordance with the timing described above, each Small Loan Appraisal Estimate or Updated Appraisal for so long as
an Appraisal Reduction Event exists with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and the Master Servicer shall
recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount based on such updated Small Loan Appraisal Estimate or Updated Appraisal and receipt
of information reasonably requested by the Master Servicer from the Special Servicer to the extent such information is in the
possession of the Special Servicer, reasonably necessary to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount. The Special Servicer shall
send all such letter updates and Updated Valuations to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the 17g-5 Information
Provider (who shall promptly post such materials to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d)
of this Agreement), the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (if any), the Risk Retention Consultation Party and, for
so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder.


 


The
Special Servicer shall monitor each Specially Serviced Loan, evaluate whether the causes of the default can be corrected over
a reasonable period without significant impairment of the value of the related Mortgaged Property, initiate corrective action
in cooperation with the Borrower if, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, cure is likely, and take


 






    -249-


     


    

 


such
other actions (including without limitation, negotiating and accepting a discounted payoff of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole
Loan) as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. If, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, such corrective action has
been unsuccessful, no satisfactory arrangement can be made for collection of delinquent payments, and the Specially Serviced Loan
has not been released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any provision hereof, and except as otherwise specifically provided in Section
3.09(a) and 3.09(b) of this Agreement, the Special Servicer may, to the extent consistent with the Asset Status Report
(and with the consent of the Directing Holder, if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, and after consultation
with the Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant to Section 6.07) and with the Servicing Standard, accelerate such Specially
Serviced Loan and commence a foreclosure or other acquisition with respect to the related Mortgaged Property or Properties, provided
that the Special Servicer determines that such acceleration and foreclosure are more likely to produce a greater recovery
to Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders
and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, constituted a single lender) (and with respect to any Serviced Whole
Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)
on a present value basis (discounting at the related Calculation Rate) than would a waiver of such default or an extension or
modification in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.26 hereof. In connection with causing the Trust to foreclose
on collateral that consists of multiple properties held for sale to customers by the related Borrower (such as unsold condominium
units in a single project), the Special Servicer directing such foreclosure shall consider the effect of the bidding price for
the properties on the tax basis of such properties if such properties are likely to be treated in the hands of the Trust as properties
held for sale to customers. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs and expenses in any such proceedings as a Servicing Advance
unless the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines, in its good faith judgment, that such Servicing
Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided, if such Servicing Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable
Advance but the Special Servicer determines that such payment would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, if
applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and Serviced Companion Loan
Noteholders, as applicable, constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Serviced Subordinate
Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan) (with the Master Servicer
permitted to conclusively rely upon any such determination by the Special Servicer), the Special Servicer shall direct the Master
Servicer to make such payment from the Collection Account (or, if applicable, the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account),
which payment shall be an Additional Trust Fund Expense. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any determination
of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that a Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the
Master Servicer does not make such Servicing Advance in violation of the second preceding sentence, the Trustee shall make such
Servicing Advance, unless the Trustee determines that such Servicing Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer
and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement of Servicing Advances (with interest at the Reimbursement Rate)
made pursuant to this paragraph to the extent permitted by Section 3.06 of this Agreement.


 


(b)          If
the Special Servicer elects to proceed with a non-judicial foreclosure in accordance with the laws of the state where the Mortgaged
Property is located, the Special


 






    -250-


     


    

 


Servicer
shall not be required to pursue a deficiency judgment against the related Borrower or any other liable party if (i) the laws of
the state do not permit such a deficiency judgment after a non-judicial foreclosure or (ii) if the Special Servicer determines,
in its best judgment, that the likely recovery if a deficiency judgment is obtained will not be sufficient to warrant the cost,
time, expense and/or exposure of pursuing the deficiency judgment and such determination is evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate
delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.


 


(c)           In
the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate
of sale shall be issued to the Trustee (on behalf of the Trust Fund), or to its nominee (which shall not include the Special Servicer)
or a separate Trustee or co-Trustee on behalf of the Trustee as Holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Certificateholders
and, if applicable, the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders. Notwithstanding any such acquisition of title and cancellation of
the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, shall
(except for purposes of Section 9.01 of this Agreement) be considered to be a Serviced REO Loan until such time as the
related Serviced REO Property shall be sold by the Trust Fund and shall be reduced only by collections net of expenses. Consistent
with the foregoing, for purposes of all calculations hereunder, so long as such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable,
shall be considered to be an outstanding Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable:


 


(i)        it
shall be assumed that, notwithstanding that the indebtedness evidenced by the related Mortgage Note shall have been discharged,
such Mortgage Note and, for purposes of determining the Stated Principal Balance thereof, the related amortization schedule in
effect at the time of any such acquisition of title shall remain in effect; and


 


(ii)       subject
to Section 1.02(g) of this Agreement, Net REO Proceeds received in any month shall be applied to amounts that would have
been payable under the related Mortgage Note(s) in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Note(s) and any applicable Intercreditor
Agreement. In the absence of such terms, Net REO Proceeds shall, subject to Section 1.02(g) of this Agreement, be deemed
to have been received first, in payment of the accrued interest that remained unpaid on the date that the related Serviced
REO Property was acquired by the Trust Fund; second, in respect of the delinquent principal installments that remained
unpaid on such date; and thereafter, Net REO Proceeds received in any month shall be applied to the payment of installments
of principal and accrued interest on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, deemed to be due and payable
in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Note(s) and such amortization schedule until such principal has been paid in full
and then to other amounts due under such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable. If such Net REO Proceeds exceed
the Periodic Payment then payable, the excess shall be treated as a Principal Prepayment received in respect of such Mortgage
Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable.


 






    -251-


     


    

 


(d)           Notwithstanding
any provision herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall not acquire for the benefit of the Trust Fund any personal property
pursuant to this Section 3.10 unless either:


 


(i)           such
personal property is incident to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(l) of the Code) so acquired by the Special
Servicer for the benefit of the Trust Fund; or


 


(ii)          the
Special Servicer shall have requested and received an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the Lower-Tier
REMIC) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Lower-Tier REMIC will not cause the imposition of a tax
on any Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate
is outstanding (and such Opinion of Counsel may be premised on the designation hereby of any such personal property as being deemed
part of an “outside reserve fund” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h)) with the owner
of such personal property for federal income tax purposes to be designated at such time).


 


(e)           Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trust Fund, obtain title to
any direct or indirect partnership interest or other equity interest in any Borrower pledged pursuant to any pledge agreement
unless the Special Servicer shall have requested and received an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the
Trust Fund (and in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions
of the related Intercreditor Agreement)) to the effect that the holding of such partnership interest or other equity interest
by the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on any Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.


 


(f)           Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall not cause the Trustee, on behalf of the
Trust Fund, to obtain title to a Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, to obtain title to
any direct or indirect partnership interest in any Borrower pledged pursuant to a pledge agreement and thereby be the beneficial
owner of a Mortgaged Property, have a receiver of rents appointed with respect to, and shall not otherwise cause the Trustee to
acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, any Mortgaged Property if, as a result of any such action, the
Trustee, for the Trust Fund, the Certificateholders or Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, if applicable, 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 Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with
the Servicing Standard, based on an updated environmental assessment report prepared by an Independent Person who regularly conducts
environmental audits (which report shall be an expense of the Trust), performed within six months prior to any such acquisition
of title or other action that:


 


(i)        such
Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental consultant,
that it would be in the


 






    -252-


     


    

 


best
economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to the Serviced Whole Loans, the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders),
as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single
lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the
subordinate nature of such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan), to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged
Property in compliance therewith, and


 


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


 


In
the event that the environmental assessment first obtained by the Special Servicer with respect to a Mortgaged Property indicates
that such Mortgaged Property may not be in compliance with applicable environmental laws or that Hazardous Materials may be present
but does not definitively establish such fact, the Special Servicer shall cause such further environmental tests to be conducted
by an Independent Person who regularly conducts such tests as the Special Servicer shall deem prudent to protect the interests
of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders. Any such tests shall be deemed part of the
environmental assessment obtained by the Special Servicer for purposes of this Section 3.10.


 


(g)          The
environmental assessment contemplated by Section 3.10(f) of this Agreement shall be prepared within three months (or as
soon thereafter as practicable) of the determination that such assessment is required by any Independent Person who regularly
conducts environmental audits for purchasers of commercial property where the Mortgaged Property is located, as determined by
the Special Servicer in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. Upon the written direction of the Special Servicer and
delivery by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer of pertinent back-up information the Master Servicer shall advance the
cost of preparation of such environmental assessments as a Servicing Advance unless the Master Servicer determines, in its good
faith judgment, that such Servicing Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement
of Servicing Advances (with interest at the Reimbursement Rate) made pursuant to the preceding sentence to the extent permitted
by Section 3.06. The Special Servicer shall provide written reports and a copy of any environmental assessments in electronic
format to the Directing Holder (if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Risk Retention Consultation
Party, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (if any) and the 17g-5 Information
Provider (who shall promptly post such materials to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d)
of this


 






    -253-


     


    

 


Agreement),
monthly regarding any actions taken by the Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or
defaulted Serviced Companion Loan as to which the environmental testing contemplated by Section 3.10(f) of this Agreement
has revealed that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied,
in each case until the earlier to occur of (i) satisfaction of both such conditions, (ii) repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan
by the Mortgage Loan Seller or (iii) release of the lien of the related Mortgage on such Mortgaged Property.


 


(h)          If
the Special Servicer determines pursuant to Section 3.10(f)(i) of this Agreement that a Mortgaged Property is not in compliance
with applicable environmental laws but that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund (and with respect to the Serviced
Whole Loans, the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable,
Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Serviced
Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan), to take such
actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance therewith, or if the Special Servicer determines pursuant
to Section 3.10(f)(ii) of this Agreement that the circumstances referred to therein relating to Hazardous Materials are
present but that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund (and with respect to the Serviced Whole Loans, the Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders
constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, taking
into account the subordinate nature of such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan), to take such action with respect to the containment,
clean-up or remediation of Hazardous Materials affecting such Mortgaged Property as is required by law or regulation, the Special
Servicer shall (with the consent of the Directing Holder (if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) and
after consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party and the Operating Adviser pursuant to Section 6.07) take
such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund (and with respect to the Serviced Whole Loans, the
Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Serviced Subordinate
Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan), but only if the Certificate
Administrator has mailed notice to the Holders of the Regular Certificates, the Exchangeable Certificates and the related Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholders of such proposed action, which notice shall be prepared by the Special Servicer, and only if the Certificate
Administrator does not receive, within 30 days of such notification, instructions from the Holders of Regular Certificates and
Exchangeable Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights and, with respect to Serviced Whole Loans, the applicable
Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders directing the Special Servicer not to take such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the Special Servicer reasonably determines that it is likely that within such 30-day period irreparable environmental harm to
such Mortgaged Property would result from the presence of such Hazardous Materials and provides a prior written statement to the
Trustee and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the basis for such determination, then the Special Servicer may take or
cause to be taken such action to remedy such condition as may be consistent with the Servicing Standard. None of the Trustee,
the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be obligated to take


 






    -254-


     


    

 


any
action or not take any action pursuant to this Section 3.10(g) at the direction of the Certificateholders or with respect
to any Serviced Whole Loan, at the direction of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders unless
the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders agree to indemnify
the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to such action or inaction.
The Master Servicer shall advance the cost of any such compliance, containment, clean-up or remediation as a Servicing Advance
unless the Master Servicer determines, in its good faith judgment, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.


 


(i)           The
Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of any Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan) which is abandoned or foreclosed that requires reporting to the IRS and shall provide the Master Servicer with
all information regarding forgiveness of indebtedness and required to be reported with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan and
any related Serviced Companion Loan which is abandoned or foreclosed and the Master Servicer shall report to the IRS and the related
Borrower, in the manner required by applicable law, such information and the Master Servicer shall report, via Form 1099C or Form
1099A, all forgiveness of indebtedness to the extent such information has been provided to the Master Servicer by the Special
Servicer. The Master Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.


 


(j)           The
costs of any Updated Valuation obtained pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing
Advance and shall be reimbursable from the Collection Account or, with respect to the Serviced Whole Loans, first, from
the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account and second, to the extent amounts in the Serviced Whole Loan Collection
Accounts are insufficient therefor, from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.06(a); provided that
the Master Servicer shall, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, if any, (i) promptly notify
the related Companion Loan Noteholder and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to exercise on behalf of the Trust any rights
under the related Intercreditor Agreement to obtain reimbursement for a pro rata portion of such amount allocable to the
related Serviced Companion Loans from the related Companion Loan Noteholders.


 


Section
3.11     Custodian to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.     Upon
the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, or the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that
payment in full has been escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall immediately notify the Custodian
by a certification (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan
Collection Account, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing
Officer and shall request delivery to it of the related Mortgage File. Any expense incurred in connection with any instrument
of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance that is not paid by the related Borrower shall be chargeable to the Trust Fund. The Master
Servicer agrees to use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to enforce any provision in the relevant Loan
Documents that require the Borrower to pay such amounts. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction
or deed of reconveyance shall be an expense of the Custodian.


 






    -255-


     


    


 


From time to time upon
request of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and delivery to the Custodian of a Request for Release, the Custodian shall
promptly release the Mortgage File (or any portion thereof) designated in such Request for Release to the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable. Upon return of the foregoing to the Custodian, or in the event of a liquidation or conversion
of the Mortgage Loan or the Serviced Whole Loan into a Serviced REO Property, or in the event of a substitution of a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Agreement, or receipt by the Custodian of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating
that such Mortgaged Property was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation
which are required to be deposited into the Collection Account or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account, as applicable,
have been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan has become a Serviced REO Property, or that the Master
Servicer has received a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan and the applicable Substitution Shortfall Amount, the Custodian shall
deliver a copy of the Request for Release to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. If from time to time,
pursuant to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreement or Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and as appropriate for
enforcing the terms of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Other Servicer or the Other Special Servicer requests delivery
to it of the original Mortgage Note by providing the Trustee and the Custodian a Request for Release, then the Custodian shall
release or cause the release of such original Mortgage Note to the Other Servicer or the Other Special Servicer or its designee.


 


Within five (5) Business
Days (or, in case of an emergency, within such shorter period as is reasonable under the circumstances) after receipt of a written
certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing
Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and REO Loans) any court pleadings, requests for a trustee’s
sale or other documents prepared by the Special Servicer, its agents or attorneys, necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s
sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Borrower on the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents
be executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required, that the proposed action
is consistent with the Servicing Standard and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise
affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s
sale.


 


With respect to each
Servicing Shift Whole Loan, on and after the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date, if pursuant to the related Intercreditor
Agreement and the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of such Servicing Shift
Whole Loan, as applicable, the related Other Servicer requests in writing delivery to it of the original Note, then the Custodian
shall release or cause the release of such original Note to the related Other Servicer or its designee.

Trust Fund Expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) relating to such Performing Loan incurred
during or prior to such Collection Period, and, in the case of the Serviced Whole Loans, to the extent allocated to the related
Mortgage Loan in the related Intercreditor Agreement and as further described in Section 3.12(d); (iii) any amounts collected
for checks returned for insufficient funds (with respect to any Performing Loan or Specially Serviced Loan); and (iv) 100% of any
Modification Fees and consent fees (or similar fees) related to any consents, modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments
of any Serviced Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) that are non-Specially Serviced Loans that do not involve
a Special Servicer Major Decision, 50% of any Modification Fees and consent fees (or similar fees) related to any consents, modifications,

of any defeasance fees (provided that for the avoidance of doubt, any such defeasance fee shall not include the Special Servicer’s
portion of any Modification Fees or waiver fees in connection with a defeasance that the Special Servicer is entitled to under
this Agreement), 100% of Assumption Fees with respect to Serviced Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) that

Serviced Loans, in each case to the extent received and not required to be deposited or retained in the Collection Account (or
Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account), in each case pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall
also be entitled pursuant to, and to the extent provided in, Section 3.06(a)(viii) or 3.07(b) of this Agreement,
as applicable, to withdraw from the Collection Account and to receive from any Borrower Accounts (to the extent not payable to
the related Borrower under the Mortgage Loan or applicable law),


 



    -257-


     


    

 


Net Prepayment Interest Excess, if any, that accrue on the Mortgage
Loans that it is servicing and any interest or other income earned on deposits therein. In addition, the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to the portion of Net Default Interest and any late payment fees or penalty charges collected by the Other Servicer
servicing a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan that are allocated to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan remaining after application thereof
to reimburse interest on related P&I Advances and to reimburse the Trust for certain expenses of the Trust, if applicable,
as provided in this Agreement. Except as specified in the preceding sentence and except with respect to clause (i) in this paragraph,
the Master Servicer will not be entitled to the compensation set forth in clauses (iii) and (iv) in this paragraph with respect
to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer will each be entitled to charge the related Borrower reasonable review
fees in connection with any borrower request to the extent such fees are not prohibited under the related Loan Documents and are
actually paid by or on behalf of the related Borrower.


 


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


 


The Master Servicer and
any successor holder of the Excess Servicing Fee Rights that relate to the Mortgage Loans (and any successor REO Loans with respect
to such Mortgage Loans) shall be entitled, at any time, at its own expense, to transfer, sell, pledge or otherwise assign such
Excess Servicing Fee Rights in whole (but not in part), in either case, to any Qualified Institutional Buyer or Institutional Accredited
Investor (other than a Plan); provided that no such transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment shall be made unless (i)
that transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Act and
any applicable state securities laws and is otherwise made in accordance with the Act and such state securities laws, (ii) the
prospective transferor shall have delivered to the Depositor a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit AA-1
hereto and (iii) the prospective transferee shall have delivered to the Master Servicer and the Depositor a certificate substantially
in the form attached as Exhibit AA-2 hereto. None of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Certificate Registrar is obligated to register or qualify an Excess Servicing
Fee Right under the Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit
the transfer, sale, pledge or assignment of an Excess Servicing Fee Right without registration or qualification. The Master Servicer
and each holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right desiring to


 



    -258-


     


    

 


effect a transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment of such Excess
Servicing Fee Right shall, and the Master Servicer hereby agrees, and each such holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right by its
acceptance of such Excess Servicing Fee Right shall be deemed to have agreed, in connection with any transfer of such Excess Servicing
Fee Right effected by such Person, to indemnify the Certificateholders, the Trust, the Depositor, the Underwriters, the Certificate
Administrator, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer
and the Special Servicer against any liability that may result if such transfer is not exempt from registration and/or qualification
under the Act or other applicable federal and state securities laws or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws
or in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph. By its acceptance of an Excess Servicing Fee Right, the holder
thereof shall be deemed to have agreed not to use or disclose such information in any manner that could result in a violation of
any provision of the Act or other applicable securities laws or that would require registration of such Excess Servicing Fee Right
or any Certificate pursuant to the Act. From time to time following any transfer, sale, pledge or assignment of an Excess Servicing
Fee Right, the Master Servicer with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or successor REO Loan with respect thereto to which the
Excess Servicing Fee Right relates, shall pay, out of each amount paid to the Master Servicer as Servicing Fee with respect to
such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, the related Excess Servicing Fees to the holder of such Excess Servicing Fee
Right within one Business Day following the payment of such Servicing Fee to the Master Servicer, in each case in accordance with
payment instructions provided by such holder in writing to the Master Servicer. The holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right shall
not have any rights under this Agreement except as set forth in the preceding sentences of this paragraph. None of the Certificate
Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor, the Special
Servicer or the Trustee shall have any obligation whatsoever regarding payment of the Excess Servicing Fee or the assignment or
transfer of the Excess Servicing Fee Right.


 


As compensation for its
activities hereunder on each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled with respect to each Mortgage Loan
to its portion of the Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fee, which shall be payable from amounts on deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution
Account. The Certificate Administrator shall pay the Trustee the Trustee’s portion of the Certificate Administrator/Trustee
Fee. The Certificate Administrator’s rights to the Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fee may not be transferred in whole
or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of its responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.


 


Except as otherwise provided
herein, the Master Servicer shall pay all of its overhead expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder,
including all fees of any sub-servicers retained by it (but excluding Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicers). Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall each pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its
activities hereunder.


 


(b)          As
compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer shall be entitled with respect to each Specially Serviced Loan
and Serviced REO Loan to the Special Servicing Compensation, which shall be payable from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account
or the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account, as applicable, as set forth in Section 3.06 of this Agreement. The Special
Servicer’s rights to the Special Servicing Fee may


 



    -259-


     


    

 


not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer
of all of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. In addition, the Special Servicer
shall be entitled to receive, as Special Servicing Compensation, to the extent permitted by applicable law and the related Loan
Documents, (i) any Net Default Interest and any other Penalty Charges collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
during a Collection Period accrued on any Specially Serviced Loan remaining after application thereof during such Collection Period
(and in the case of the Serviced Whole Loans, as set forth in and subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and
Section 3.12(d) herein) to pay the Advance Interest Amount relating to such Specially Serviced Loan and any unreimbursed
Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred during or prior to
such Collection Period on such related Specially Serviced Loan (but not nonsufficient funds check fees and the like, which shall
be paid to the Master Servicer) as further described below in this subsection (b); (ii) 100% of any Modification Fees and consent
fees (or similar fees) related to any Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Loan; (iii) 50% of any Modification Fees and consent
fees (or similar fees) related to any consents, modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Mortgage Loans (and the
related Serviced Companion Loans) that are non-Specially Serviced Loans that involve one or more Special Servicer Major Decisions
(whether or not processed by the Special Servicer); (iv) 100% of Assumption Fees on any Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO
Loan; (v) 50% of Assumption Fees and consent fees with respect to Serviced Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan)
that involve one or more Special Servicer Major Decisions (whether or not processed by the Special Servicer); (vi) any interest
or other income earned on deposits in the REO Accounts; (vii) 100% of assumption application fees received with respect to Serviced
Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) that are Performing Loans for which the Special Servicer is processing
the underlying assumption-related transaction and 100% of assumption application fees received with respect to Specially Serviced
Loans; and (viii) 100% of beneficiary statement charges to the extent such beneficiary statements are prepared by the special servicer
(but not including Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges).


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer will each be entitled to charge the related Borrower reasonable review
fees in connection with any borrower request.


 


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


 






    -260-


     


    

 


Except as otherwise provided
herein, the Special Servicer shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder, including
all fees of any sub-servicers retained by it.


 


In addition, the Special
Servicer shall be entitled to the portion of Net Default Interest and any other Penalty Charges collected by the Other Special
Servicer servicing the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and that are allocated to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan remaining after
application thereof during such Collection Period to pay the Advance Interest Amount relating to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan
and any unreimbursed Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred
during or prior to such Collection Period on such related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan (but not nonsufficient funds check fees and
similar fees, which shall be paid to the Master Servicer) as provided in this Agreement. Except as specified in the preceding sentence,
the Special Servicer will not be entitled to the compensation set forth in this Section 3.12(b) with respect to a Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan.


 


(c)          In
addition, a Workout Fee will be payable to the Special Servicer with respect to each Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced
Companion Loan that ceases to be a Specially Serviced Loan pursuant to the definition thereof. As to each such Mortgage Loan or
Serviced Whole Loan, the Workout Fee will be payable out of each collection of interest and principal (including scheduled payments,
prepayments, Balloon Payments and payments at maturity) received on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan for so long as it
remains a Corrected Mortgage Loan. The Workout Fee with respect to any such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan will cease to
be payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Loan or if the related Mortgaged Property becomes a Serviced REO Property;
provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loans again ceases
to be a Specially Serviced Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns with respect to any or
all of its servicing duties, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable with respect to the Mortgage
Loans that cease to be a Specially Serviced Loan during the period that it had responsibility for servicing such Specially Serviced
Loan (or for any Specially Serviced Loan that had not yet become a Corrected Mortgage Loan because as of the time that the Special
Servicer is terminated the borrower has not made three consecutive monthly debt service payments and subsequently the Specially
Serviced Loan becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan) at the time of such termination or resignation (and the successor Special Servicer
shall not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees), in each case until the Workout Fee for any such loan ceases to be payable
in accordance with the preceding sentence.


 


A Liquidation Fee will
be payable to the Special Servicer, except as described below, with respect to (i) each Mortgage Loan repurchased by a Mortgage
Loan Seller after the Initial Resolution Period (and giving effect to any Resolution Extension Period) in accordance with Section
2.03(e) of this Agreement, (ii) each Specially Serviced Loan as to which the Special Servicer obtains a full, partial or discounted
payoff from the related Borrower, (iii) any Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Property as to which the Special Servicer recovered
any Liquidation Proceeds and (iv) each Defaulted Loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan sold by the Special Servicer in accordance
with the proviso in Section 3.16(b) of this Agreement as to which the Special Servicer recovered any Liquidation Proceeds;
provided, however, for


 



    -261-


     


    

 


clarification, in the case of clause (iv), should the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan be sold by the Other Special
Servicer, then the Liquidation Fee shall be paid to such Other Special Servicer. As to each such Mortgage Loan repurchased by a
Mortgage Loan Seller after the Initial Resolution Period (and giving effect to any Resolution Extension Period) in accordance with
Section 2.03(e) of this Agreement or Specially Serviced Loan and Serviced REO Property, the Liquidation Fee will be payable
from the related payment or proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary described above, no Liquidation Fee will be payable
based on, or out of, Liquidation Proceeds to the extent set forth in the definition of “Liquidation Fee” herein. With
respect to any future mezzanine debt, to the extent not prohibited by the Loan Documents, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer,
as applicable, shall require that the related mezzanine intercreditor agreement provide that if a Mortgage Loan is purchased by
the related mezzanine lender on a date that is more than 90 days following the date that the related option first becomes exercisable,
such mezzanine lender shall be required to pay a Liquidation Fee equal to the amount that the Special Servicer would otherwise
be entitled to under this Agreement with respect to a liquidation of such Mortgage Loan (provided, that such Liquidation
Fee shall in all circumstances be payable by the related mezzanine lender and shall not, under any circumstances, be payable out
of the Trust unless the Master Servicer fails to require the related mezzanine intercreditor agreement to require the mezzanine
lender to pay such amounts in breach of its obligation to do so under this paragraph). If Liquidation Proceeds are received with
respect to any Specially Serviced Loan as to which the Special Servicer is properly entitled to a Workout Fee, such Workout Fee
will be payable based on and out of the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or interest. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee or a Workout Fee, but
not both, with respect to Liquidation Proceeds received on any Mortgage Loan or any Specially Serviced Loan. If (i) the Special
Servicer resigns or has been terminated, and (ii) either prior or subsequent to such resignation or termination, either (A) a Specially
Serviced Loan was liquidated or modified pursuant to an action plan submitted by the initial Special Servicer and approved (or
deemed approved) by the Directing Holder or the Special Servicer has determined to grant a forbearance, or (B) a Specially Serviced
Loan being monitored by the Special Servicer subsequently became a Corrected Mortgage Loan, then in either such event the Special
Servicer shall be paid the related Workout Fee or Liquidation Fee, as applicable.


 


The total amount of Workout
Fees and Liquidation Fees that are payable by the Trust with respect to each Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or Serviced REO
Loan through the period such Mortgage Loan is an asset of the Trust shall be subject to an aggregate cap of $1,000,000. For the
purposes of determining whether any such cap has been reached with respect to a Special Servicer and a Mortgage Loan, Serviced
Whole Loan or Serviced REO Loan, only the Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees paid to such Special Servicer with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or Serviced REO Loan shall be taken into account, and any Workout Fees or Liquidation Fees for
any other Mortgage Loans, Serviced Whole Loans or Serviced REO Loans shall not be taken into account (and any Workout Fees or Liquidation
Fees paid to a predecessor or successor special servicer or Other Special Servicer shall also not be taken into account).


 


The Special Servicer
shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder
(including, without limitation, any amounts, other than management fees in respect of REO Properties, due and owing to any of


 



    -262-


     


    

 


its
sub-servicers, any amounts due and owing to any of its Affiliates, and the premiums for any blanket insurance policy obtained by
it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.08 of this Agreement, except to the extent such premiums are reimbursable
pursuant to Section 3.08 of this Agreement), if and to the extent such expenses are not expressly payable directly out of
the Collection Account or if a Serviced Whole Loan is involved, the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account or the applicable
REO Account or as a Servicing Advance, and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly
provided in this Agreement.


 


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


 


(d)          In
determining the compensation of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to Penalty Charges, on any
Distribution Date, the aggregate Penalty Charges collected on any Mortgage Loan or, unless prohibited by the related Intercreditor
Agreement to be so applied, any Serviced Companion Loan, during the related Collection Period shall be applied (as between Default
Interest and late payment charges, in the priority set forth in the definition of “Advance Interest Amount”)
to reimburse (i) the Master Servicer or the Trustee for interest on Advances at the Reimbursement Rate with respect to such Mortgage
Loan that accrued in the period that such Penalty Charges were collected and advance interest to any related Serviced Companion
Loan Service Provider for any debt service advance made by such party with respect to any related Serviced Companion Loan that
accrued in the period that such Penalty Charges were collected, (ii) the Trust Fund for all interest on Advances with respect to
such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan previously paid to the Master Servicer, the Trustee or to any Serviced Companion Loan
Service Provider pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(vi) or Section 3.06(b)(vi) of this Agreement and (iii) the Trust Fund
for any Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) with respect to such
Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan paid in the Collection Period that such Penalty Charges were collected and not previously
paid out of Penalty Charges, and any Penalty Charges remaining thereafter shall be distributed pro rata to the Master Servicer
and the Special Servicer based upon the amount of Penalty Charges the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would otherwise have

Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Property and shall be entitled to all rights and compensation earned with respect to such Serviced
Whole Loan as Special Servicer of such Serviced Whole Loan. With respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, prior to the applicable
Servicing Shift Securitization Date, no other special servicer will be entitled to any such compensation or have such rights and
obligations. If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan is still a Specially Serviced Loan on the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization
Date, the Other Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation with respect to such Servicing Shift
Whole Loan as if the Special Servicer were being terminated as the Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole
Loan and the Other Special Servicer were replacing the Special Servicer as the successor Special Servicer with respect to such
Servicing Shift Whole Loan.


 


If a Servicing Shift
Whole Loan is being specially serviced on the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Special Servicer shall be entitled
to compensation for the period during which it acted as Special Servicer with respect to such Whole Loan, including its share of
any liquidation or workout fees and any additional servicing compensation as well as all surviving indemnity and other rights in
respect of such special servicing role under this Agreement.

Agreement, first, from the related Subordinate Companion Loan up to the full principal balance thereof, if any, and second,
to the extent any such costs and expenses remain unreimbursed, from the related Mortgage Loan and the Collection Account, or in
the case of a Serviced Whole Loan with a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, first, out of the related Serviced Whole Loan
Collection Account from collections on the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan and the related Mortgage Loan on a pro
rata basis by principal balance, and second, to the extent any such costs and expenses remain unreimbursed, out of the
Collection Account) for the costs and expenses incurred by them in the performance of their duties under this Agreement which are
“unanticipated expenses incurred by the REMIC” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(iii).
Such expenses shall include, by way of example and not by way of limitation, environmental assessments, Updated Appraisals and
appraisals in connection with foreclosure, the fees and expenses of any administrative or judicial proceeding and expenses expressly
identified as reimbursable in Section 3.06(a)(xv) of this Agreement. All such costs and expenses shall be treated as costs
and expenses of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the related Serviced Whole Loan, if applicable.


 


(f)     
     No provision of this Agreement or of the Certificates shall require the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee to
expend or risk their own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of their duties hereunder
or


 



    -264-


     


    

 


thereunder, or in the exercise of any of their
rights or powers, if, in the good faith business judgment of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor,
the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, repayment of such funds would
not be ultimately recoverable from late payments, Net Insurance Proceeds, Net Liquidation Proceeds and other collections on or
in respect of the Mortgage Loans, or from adequate indemnity from other assets comprising the Trust Fund against such risk or liability.


 


If the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trustee receives
a request or inquiry from a Borrower, any Certificateholder or any other Person the response to which would, in the Master Servicer’s,
the Special Servicer’s, the Certificate Administrator’s, the Operating Advisor’s, the Asset Representations Reviewer’s
or the Trustee’s good faith business judgment require the assistance of Independent legal counsel or other consultant to
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer
or the Trustee, the cost of which would not be an expense of the Trust Fund or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder hereunder,
then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall not be required to take any action in response to such request or inquiry unless
such Borrower, such Certificateholder, or such other Person, as applicable, makes arrangements for the payment of the Master Servicer’s,
the Special Servicer’s, the Certificate Administrator’s, the Operating Advisor’s, the Asset Representations Reviewer’s
or the Trustee’s reasonable expenses associated with such counsel (including, without limitation, posting an advance payment
for such expenses) satisfactory to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor,
the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trustee, as the case may be, in its sole discretion. Unless such arrangements have been
made, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have no liability to any Person for the failure to respond to such request or
inquiry.

copies of information as requested by such Person and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate
Administrator shall be permitted to require payment (other than from the Directing Holder and the Trustee and the Certificate
Administrator on its own behalf or on behalf of the Certificateholders, as applicable) of a sum sufficient to cover the
reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in making such copies. Such access shall (except as described in the
preceding sentence) be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business
hours at the offices of the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian. In addition, upon reasonable prior written notice to
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Depositor or their accountants or other representatives shall have reasonable access to review the documents,
correspondence and records in the possession of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as they
relate to a Mortgaged Property and any Serviced REO Property during normal business hours at the offices of the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. Nothing in this Section 3.14 shall detract from the obligation
of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information with respect
to the Borrowers, and the failure of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section
3.14 as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.14.


 


(b)          In
connection with providing or granting any information or access pursuant to the prior paragraph to a Certificateholder, Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholder or any regulatory authority that may exercise authority over a Certificateholder or Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may each require payment from such Certificateholder or Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholder (to the extent permitted in the related Intercreditor Agreement) of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable
costs and expenses of providing such information or access, including copy charges and reasonable fees for employee time and for
space; provided that no charge may be made if such information or access was required to be given or made available under
applicable law. In connection with providing Certificateholders or Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders access to the information
described in the preceding paragraph the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, may require (prior to affording
such access) a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable
to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, generally to the effect that such Person is a Holder of Certificates
or a beneficial holder of Book-Entry Certificates or Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or a regulator or governmental body and
will keep such information confidential.


 


(c)          Upon
the reasonable request of (1) any Certificateholder identified to the Master Servicer to the Master Servicer’s reasonable
satisfaction (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the request of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder), the Master
Servicer


 



    -273-


     


    

 


may provide (or forward electronically) (at the expense of such Certificateholder, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder)
copies of any appraisals, operating statements, rent rolls and financial statements obtained by the Master Servicer, or (2) any
Controlling Class Certificateholder identified to the Master Servicer (in the case of a Performing Loan) or the Special Servicer
(in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan) to the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s reasonable satisfaction,
the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide (or forward electronically) (at the expense of such Controlling
Class Certificateholder) any Conflicted Information in the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s, as applicable,
possession (available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website but not accessible to such Controlling Class Certificateholder
through the Certificate Administrator’s Website on account of it constituting Conflicted Information) relating to any Conflicted
Controlling Class Mortgage Loan in which such Controlling Class Certificateholder is not a Conflicted Controlling Class Holder;
provided that, in connection therewith, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may require a written confirmation
executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is a Holder of Certificates or a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or a beneficial
holder of Book-Entry Certificates or a regulator or a governmental body and will keep such information confidential and will use
such information only for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Certificateholder
may have under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall not make any Asset Status Reports available
to any Certificateholders on its website. None of the parties to this Agreement shall provide any Asset Status Report or any Final
Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator.

or the Special Servicer determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) the question is beyond the scope outlined above,
(ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or the Certificateholders or would be in violation

Noteholders), shall dispose of any Serviced REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which
the Trust Fund acquires ownership of such Serviced REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, unless (i) the
Special Servicer on behalf of the Lower-Tier REMIC has applied for an extension of such period pursuant to Sections 856(e)(3) and
860G(a)(8)(A) of the Code, in which case the Special Servicer shall sell such Serviced REO Property within the applicable extension
period or if the Special Servicer has applied for extension as provided in this clause (i) but such request has not yet
been granted or denied, the additional time specified in such request, or (ii) the Special Servicer seeks and subsequently receives
an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such expenses
shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement), addressed to
the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such Serviced
REO Property for an additional specified period will not cause such Serviced REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure
property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code (determined without regard to the exception applicable for
purposes of Section 860D(a) of the Code) at any time that any Certificate is outstanding, in which event such period shall be extended
by such additional specified period subject to any conditions set forth in such Opinion of Counsel. The Special Servicer, on behalf
of the Trust Fund (and, in the case of the Serviced Whole Loans, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders), shall dispose
of any Serviced REO Property held by the Trust Fund prior to the last day of such period (taking into account extensions) by which
such Serviced REO Property is required to be disposed of pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence in a
manner provided under Section 3.16 hereof. In the case of the Trust Fund’s beneficial interest in any REO Property
acquired by the Other Trustee pursuant to an Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer shall coordinate with
the Other Special Servicer with respect to any REO extension on behalf of the Trust Fund. The Special Servicer shall manage, conserve,
protect and operate each Serviced REO Property for the Certificateholders (and, in the case of the Serviced Whole Loans, the related
Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders) solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause
such Serviced REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code (determined without regard to the exception applicable for purposes of Section 860D(a) of the Code) and such that income
from the operation or sale of such property does not result in receipt by the Trust Fund of any income from non-permitted assets
as described in Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code with respect to such property.


 


(b)          The
Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to the Servicing Standard and the specific requirements and
prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with any Serviced REO Property as are consistent with the
manner in which the Special Servicer manages and operates similar property owned or managed by the Special Servicer or any of its
Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period as the Special Servicer deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders
and, in the case of the


 



    -282-


     


    

 


Serviced Whole Loans, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders and, in connection therewith, the
Special Servicer shall agree to the payment of management fees that are consistent with general market standards. Consistent with
the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall cause or permit to be earned with respect to such Serviced REO Property any “net
income from foreclosure property,” within the meaning of Section 860G(c) of the Code, which is subject to tax under the REMIC
Provisions, only if it has determined, and has so advised the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator in writing, that the earning
of such income on a net after-tax basis could reasonably be expected to result in a greater recovery on behalf of Certificateholders
(and, in the case of the Serviced Whole Loans, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders) than an alternative method of operation
or rental of such Serviced REO Property that would not be subject to such a tax.


 


The Special Servicer
shall segregate and hold all revenues received by it with respect to any Serviced REO Property separate and apart from its own
funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to any Serviced REO Property a segregated custodial account
(each, an “REO Account”), each of which shall be an Eligible Account and shall be entitled “Midland Loan
Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Special Servicer, on behalf of Wilmington Trust, National Association,
as Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of Benchmark 2018-B1 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series
2018-B1 REO Account.” With respect to a Serviced REO Property securing a Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall
establish an REO Account solely with respect to such property (each such account, a “Serviced Whole Loan REO Account”),
each of which shall be an Eligible Account and shall be entitled “Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National
Association, as Special Servicer, on behalf of Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders
of Benchmark 2018-B1 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-B1 and the related Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholders REO Account,” to be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Loan
Noteholders. The Special Servicer shall be entitled to withdraw for its account any interest or investment income earned on funds
deposited in an REO Account or a Serviced Whole Loan REO Account to the extent provided in Section 3.07(b) of this Agreement.
The Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited REO Proceeds in the REO Account or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan
REO Account within two Business Days after receipt of such properly identified and available REO Proceeds, and shall withdraw therefrom
funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of such Serviced REO Property and for other Property Protection
Expenses with respect to such Serviced REO Property, including:


 


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


 


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


 


(iii)         all
costs and expenses reasonable and necessary to protect, maintain, manage, operate, repair and restore any Serviced REO Property
including, if applicable, the payments of any ground rents in respect of such Serviced REO Property; and


 






    -283-


     


    

 


(iv)         any
taxes imposed on the Lower-Tier REMIC, as applicable, in respect of net income from foreclosure property in accordance with Section
4.05, and with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, such expenses shall be allocated pro rata to the Mortgage Loan and
any related Serviced Companion Loans based on each loan’s Stated Principal Balance and only to the extent any such Serviced
Companion Loan is included in a REMIC.


 


To the extent that such
REO Proceeds are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above, the Master Servicer shall make such
Advance unless the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that such Servicing
Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance (provided that with respect to advancing insurance premiums or delinquent
tax assessments the Master Servicer shall comply with the provisions of the second to last paragraph in Section 3.21(d)
of this Agreement) and if the Master Servicer does not make any such Advance, the Trustee, to the extent the Trustee has actual
knowledge of the Master Servicer’s failure to make such Advance, shall make such Advance, unless in each case, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The
Trustee shall be entitled to rely, conclusively, on any determination by the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable,
that an Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Trustee, when making an independent determination whether or not
a proposed Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall use its good faith business judgment. The Master Servicer or the Trustee,
as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement of such Advances (with interest at the Reimbursement Rate) made pursuant to the
preceding sentence, to the extent permitted by Section 3.06 of this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall withdraw from
each REO Account or Serviced Whole Loan REO Account, as applicable, and remit to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection
Account or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account, as applicable, on a monthly basis on the later of the date that
is (x) on or prior to the related Determination Date or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly
identified and determined to be available, the Net REO Proceeds received or collected from each Serviced REO Property, except that
in determining the amount of such Net REO Proceeds, the Special Servicer may retain in each REO Account or Serviced Whole Loan
REO Account reasonable reserves for repairs, replacements and necessary capital improvements and other related expenses.


 


Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not:


 


(i)        
  permit any New Lease to be entered into, renewed or extended, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any
income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;


 


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


 


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


 






    -284-


     


    

 


(iv)         Directly
Operate or allow any Person to Directly Operate any Serviced REO Property on any date more than 90 days after its date of acquisition
by the Trust Fund, unless such Person is an Independent Contractor;


 


unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer
has requested and received an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee
(which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan with a Serviced Companion Loan,
such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement) to the effect
that such action will not cause such Serviced REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code (determined without regard to the exception applicable for purposes of Section 860D(a)
of the Code) at any time that it is held by the Trust Fund, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified
in such Opinion of Counsel.


 


The Special Servicer
shall be required to contract with an Independent Contractor, the fees and expenses of which shall be an expense of the Trust Fund
(and, in the case of the Serviced Whole Loans, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of
the related Intercreditor Agreement) and payable out of REO Proceeds, for the operation and management of any Serviced REO Property,
within 90 days of the Trust Fund’s acquisition thereof (unless the Special Servicer shall have provided the Trustee and the
Certificate Administrator with an Opinion of Counsel that the operation and management of any Serviced REO Property other than
through an Independent Contractor shall not cause such Serviced REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property”
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code) (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund, and in the case of
a Serviced Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor
Agreement), provided that:


 


(1)          the
terms and conditions of any such contract shall be reasonable and customary for the area and type of property and shall not be
inconsistent herewith;


 


(2)          any
such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses incurred
in connection with the operation and management of such Serviced REO Property, including those listed above, and remit all related
revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days following
the receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;


 


(3)          none
of the provisions of this Section 3.15(b) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent
Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations to the Trust Fund, the Trustee
on behalf of the Certificateholders and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders, with respect
to the operation and management of any such Serviced REO Property; and


 


(4)          the
Special Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations
in connection with the operation and management of such Serviced REO Property.


 






    -285-


     


    

 


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


 


(c)          Promptly
following any acquisition by the Special Servicer of a Serviced REO Property on behalf of the Trust Fund, the Special Servicer
shall notify the Master Servicer thereof, and, upon delivery of such notice, the Special Servicer shall obtain an Updated Valuation
thereof, but only if any Updated Valuation with respect thereto is more than 9 months old and the Special Servicer has no actual
knowledge of any material adverse change in circumstances that, consistent with the Servicing Standard, would call into question
the validity of such Updated Valuation, in order to determine the fair market value of such Serviced REO Property and shall notify
the Depositor and the Master Servicer and with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the holder of the related Companion Loan, if any,
and of the results of such Updated Valuation. Any such Updated Appraisal shall be conducted in accordance with Appraisal Institute
standards and the cost thereof shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and allocated to Classes of Principal Balance Certificates,
the Class V1 Certificates and the Class V2 Certificates (in the same manner as Realized Losses and VRR Realized Losses as set forth
in Section 4.01(f) of this Agreement). In the case of any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan such expenses shall be allocated
in accordance with the allocation provisions set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. The Special Servicer shall obtain
a new Updated Valuation or a letter update every 9 months thereafter until the Serviced REO Property is sold.


 


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


 


(e)          Upon
the disposition of any Serviced REO Property in accordance with this Section 3.15, the Special Servicer shall calculate
the Gain-on-Sale Proceeds allocable to a Mortgage Loan or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan, if any, realized in connection with
such sale.


 


Section
3.16      Sale of Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties. (a) The parties hereto may
sell or purchase, or permit the sale or purchase of, a Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan only on
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.16 or as otherwise expressly provided in
or contemplated by Section 2.03(e) and Section 9.01 of this Agreement or in an applicable
Intercreditor Agreement.


 


(b)          If
the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders
and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Noteholders
(as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single
lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the


 



    -286-


     


    

 


subordinate nature of such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan) to attempt to sell a Defaulted Loan (other than any Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit
offers for each such Defaulted Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion
Loan Noteholders in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price. In the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan,
to the extent that such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not sold together with the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan by the Other
Special Servicer for the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan and, if permitted under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special
Servicer shall be entitled to sell (with the consent of the Directing Holder (if no Control Termination Event has occurred and
is continuing) and after consulting with the Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant to Section 6.07) such Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such action would be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders (and shall be entitled to a Liquidation Fee in connection with such sale). The Special Servicer shall accept
the first cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Loan. Subject to Section 3.16(k),
if the Special Servicer receives more than one cash offer that constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Loan during the period
designated by the Special Servicer for receipt of offers, the Special Servicer shall accept the highest price.


 


The Special Servicer
shall give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and (other than in respect of
any applicable Conflicted Loan) the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party not less than ten (10) Business
Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any such Defaulted Loan, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any such Defaulted
Loan pursuant to this Agreement.


 


(c)          Whether
any cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Loan, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Special Servicer,
if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested
Person; provided, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) the offer is the highest
offer received, and (ii) if the offer is less than the applicable Purchase Price, at least two other offers are received from independent
third parties. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such Defaulted
Loan, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or Updated Appraisal conducted in accordance
with this Agreement within the preceding 9-month period or in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a narrative appraisal prepared
by an Independent MAI appraiser selected by (i) the Special Servicer if the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer
is not making an offer with respect to such Defaulted Loan, (ii) by the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer is making such
an offer unless the Master Servicer and Special Servicer are Affiliates or (iii) the Operating Advisor if the Master Servicer and
Special Servicer are Affiliates and the Special Servicer is making an offer. The cost of any such Updated Appraisal or narrative
appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance. In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to
retain, at the expense of the related Interested Person, an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage
loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan or Serviced
Whole Loan, as the case may be, that has been selected with reasonable care by the


 



    -287-


     


    

 


trustee to determine such fair price and will
be permitted to conclusively rely on the opinion of such third party’s determination. Any costs and fees of the Trustee in
connection with an offer by an Interested Person and the Trustee’s duties therewith shall be paid in advance of any such
determination by such Interested Person.


 


In determining whether
any offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, the Special Servicer
shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, Updated Appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have
obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior 9 months), and in determining whether any offer from an Interested Person
constitutes a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, any appraiser shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among
other factors, the period and amount of the Delinquency on such Defaulted Loan, the period and amount of the occupancy level and
physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property, the state of the local economy in the area where the Mortgaged Property is
located, the expected recovery from such Defaulted Loan if the Special Servicer were to pursue a workout strategy, and the time
and expense associated with a purchaser’s foreclosing on the related Mortgaged Property.


 


In addition, the Special
Servicer shall refer to all other relevant information obtained by it or otherwise contained in the Mortgage File; provided
that the Special Servicer shall take account of any change in circumstances regarding the related Mortgaged Property known to the
Special Servicer that has occurred subsequent to, and that would, in the Special Servicer’s reasonable judgment, materially
affect the value of the related Mortgaged Property reflected in the most recent related Appraisal. Furthermore, the Special Servicer
may consider available objective third party information obtained from generally available sources, as well as information obtained
from vendors providing real estate services to the Special Servicer, concerning the market for distressed real estate loans and
the real estate market for the subject property type in the area where the related Mortgaged Property is located. The Special Servicer
may, to the extent it is reasonable to do so in accordance with the Servicing Standard, conclusively rely on any opinions or reports
of qualified Independent experts in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five years’ experience
in valuing or investing in loans similar to the subject Specially Serviced Loan, selected with reasonable care by the Special Servicer,
in making such determination. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.16(c)
shall constitute, and be reimbursable as, Servicing Advances. The other parties to this Agreement shall cooperate with all reasonable
requests for information made by the Special Servicer in order to allow the Special Servicer to perform its duties pursuant to
this Section 3.16(c).


 


The Purchase Price (which,
in connection with the administration of a Defaulted Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan, shall be construed and calculated as
if the loans in such Serviced Whole Loan together constitute a single Mortgage Loan thereunder) for any such Defaulted Loan shall
in all cases be deemed a fair price.


 


(d)          Subject
to subsection (c) above, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders and,
in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders) in negotiating and taking any other action
necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any such Defaulted Loan, and the applicable collection of all amounts payable
in connection therewith. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer may charge for its own account prospective offerors, and
may retain, fees


 



    -288-


     


    

 


that approximate the Special Servicer’s actual costs in the preparation and delivery of information pertaining
to such sales or exchanging offers without obligation to deposit such amounts into the REO Account the Collection Account or, in
the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account. Any sale of such Defaulted Loan shall
be final and without recourse to the Trustee or the Trust Fund (except such recourse to the Trust Fund imposed by those representations
and warranties typically given in such transactions, any prorations applied thereto and any customary closing matters), and if
such sale is consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the
Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trustee shall have any
liability to any Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special
Servicer or the Trustee.


 


(e)          Any
sale of such Defaulted Loan shall be for cash only.


 


(f)          The
parties hereto may sell or purchase, or permit the sale or purchase of, a Serviced REO Property only on the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in this Section 3.16 or as otherwise expressly provided in an applicable Intercreditor Agreement.


 


(g)          The
Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for each Serviced REO Property on behalf of the Certificateholders
and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders in such manner as will be reasonably
likely to realize a fair price within the time period provided for by Section 3.15(a) of this Agreement. The Special Servicer
(with the consent of the Directing Holder) shall accept the first cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price
for such Serviced REO Property. Subject to Section 3.16(k), if the Special Servicer receives more than one cash offer that
constitutes a fair price for such Serviced REO Property during the period designated by the Special Servicer for receipt of offers,
the Special Servicer shall accept the highest price. If the Special Servicer determines, in its good faith and reasonable judgment,
that it will be unable to realize a fair price for any Serviced REO Property within the time constraints imposed by Section
3.15(a) of this Agreement, then the Special Servicer (with the consent of the Directing Holder) shall dispose of such Serviced
REO Property upon such terms and conditions as the Special Servicer shall deem necessary and desirable to maximize the recovery
thereon under the circumstances and, in connection therewith, shall accept the highest outstanding cash offer, regardless of from
whom received.


 


The Special Servicer
shall give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer
and the Directing Holder, not less than ten Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any Serviced REO
Property, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its
Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any Serviced REO Property pursuant to this Agreement.


 


(h)          Whether
any cash offer constitutes a fair price for any Serviced REO Property, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Special Servicer,
if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested
Person; provided, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless it is the highest offer received.
In determining whether any offer received from an


 



    -289-


     


    

 


Interested Person represents a fair price for any such Serviced REO Property,
the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent appraisal or Updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with
this Agreement within the preceding 9-month period or in the absence of any such appraisal, on a narrative appraisal prepared by
an Independent MAI appraiser selected by the Special Servicer if the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer is
not making an offer with respect to a Serviced REO Property (or by the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer is making such an
offer). The cost of any such Updated Appraisal or narrative appraisal and any related costs and fees of the Trustee shall be covered
by, and shall be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance. In determining whether any offer from a Person other than an Interested
Person constitutes a fair price for any such Serviced REO Property, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to
the results of any appraisal, updated appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within
the prior 9 months), and in determining whether any offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any such Serviced
REO Property, any appraiser shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount
of the occupancy level and physical condition of the Mortgaged Property or Serviced REO Property, the state of the local economy
and the obligation to dispose of any Serviced REO Property within the time period specified in Section 3.15(a) of this Agreement.
The Purchase Price (which, in connection with the administration of a Serviced REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, shall
be construed and calculated as if the loans in such Serviced Whole Loan together constitute a single Mortgage Loan thereunder)
for any Serviced REO Property shall in all cases be deemed a fair price. In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to retain,
at the expense of the related Interested Person, an independent third party to determine such fair price and will be permitted
to conclusively rely on the opinion of such third party’s determination. Any costs and fees of the Trustee in connection
with an offer by an Interested Person and the Trustee’s duties therewith shall be paid in advance of any such determination
by such Interested Person.


 


(i)          Subject
to subsections (g) and (h) above, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders
and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders) in negotiating and taking any other
action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any Serviced REO Property, and the applicable collection of all
amounts payable in connection therewith. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer may charge for its own account prospective
offerors, and may retain, fees that approximate the Special Servicer’s actual costs in the preparation and delivery of information
pertaining to such sales or exchanging offers without obligation to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account or, in the
case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account. Any sale of a Serviced REO Property shall
be final and without recourse to the Trustee or the Trust Fund (except such recourse to the Trust Fund imposed by those representations
and warranties typically given in such transactions, any prorations applied thereto and any customary closing matters), and if
such sale is consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the
Depositor or the Trustee shall have any liability to any Certificateholder or Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder with respect to
the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.


 


(j)          Any
sale of a Serviced REO Property shall be for cash only.


 






    -290-


     


    

 


(k)          Notwithstanding
any of the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 3.16, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the highest
cash offer if the Special Servicer determines (in consultation with the Directing Holder (other than with respect to any applicable
Conflicted Loan or unless a Consultation Termination Event exists), the Risk Retention Consultation Party (other than with respect
to any applicable Conflicted Loan) and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan,
the related Companion Loan Noteholder(s)), in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in
the best interests of the Certificateholders and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to
a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable,
Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate
Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan), and the Special Servicer may accept
a lower cash offer (from any Person other than itself or its Affiliate) if it determines, in its reasonable and good faith judgment,
that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders (for example, if the prospective buyer making
the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer
are more favorable) and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective
whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender) (and with
respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such
Subordinate Companion Loan).


 


(l)          With
respect to each defaulted Serviced Companion Loan, the Special Servicer shall sell such defaulted Serviced Companion Loan together
with the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement as if such Mortgage
Loan and Serviced Companion Loans were one whole loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Loan
Noteholders. The Special Servicer shall provide notice and other information required under the related Intercreditor Agreement
to the applicable Other Special Servicer as soon as practicable following its decision to attempt to sell, and prior to commencement
or marketing of, any Serviced Companion Loan. With respect to Serviced Whole Loans, the Special Servicer shall be required to obtain
the consent of any holder of a related Serviced Companion Loan prior to a sale of such Serviced Whole Loan, unless (i) such holder
is the related Borrower or an Affiliate or agent of the related Borrower or (ii) the Special Servicer delivers to such holders
of the related Serviced Companion Loans: (A) at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to
attempt to sell the related Serviced Whole Loan; (B) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid
package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such
proposed sale; (C) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent appraisal for such Serviced
Whole Loan, and any documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by the holders of the applicable Serviced Companion Loans
that are material to the sale price of such Serviced Whole Loan; and (D) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of
time (but not less time than is afforded to other offerors, the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party) 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 Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. The holders of the Serviced Companion Loans (or,
in any case, their respective representatives)


 



    -291-


     


    

 


shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of such related Serviced Whole
Loan; however, the related Borrower and its agents and Affiliates shall not be permitted to submit an offer at such sale.


 


(m)          With
respect to any Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, if the Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, the Special Servicer
(or, on or after the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Other Special Servicer under the Other Pooling and Servicing
Agreement related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) will be required to sell such Mortgage Loan together with the related Companion
Loan(s) as notes evidencing one whole loan, in accordance with the provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement
or the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as the case may be.


 


Section
3.17     Additional Obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer;
Inspections. (a) The Master Servicer (at its own expense) (or, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and Serviced REO
Properties, the Special Servicer) shall inspect or cause to be inspected each Mortgaged Property securing a Serviced Mortgage
Loan that it is servicing at such times and in such manner as is consistent with the Servicing Standard, but in any event
shall inspect each Mortgaged Property with a Stated Principal Balance (or in the case of a Mortgage Loan secured by more than
one Mortgaged Property, having an Allocated Loan Amount) of (A) $2,000,000 or more at least once every 12 months (commencing
in 2019) and (B) less than $2,000,000 at least once every 24 months (commencing in 2019), (or, in each case, at such
decreased frequency as each Rating Agency shall have provided a Rating Agency Confirmation relating to the Certificates and
Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any); provided, that if a physical inspection has been performed by the Special
Servicer in the previous twelve (12) months and the Master Servicer has no knowledge of a material change in the Mortgaged
Property since such physical inspection, the Master Servicer will not be required to perform or cause to be performed, such
physical inspection; provided, further, that if any scheduled payment becomes more than sixty (60) days
delinquent on the related Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the related Mortgaged
Property as soon as practicable after such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan and annually thereafter for so
long as such Mortgage Loan remains a Specially Serviced Loan. The reasonable cost of each such inspection performed in
accordance with the Servicing Standard by the Special Servicer shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance; provided,
that if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, then the cost of such inspections shall be an expense of the Trust
payable out of general collections. With respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the costs described in the preceding sentence
above that relate to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan shall be paid out of amounts on deposit in the Serviced Whole Loan
Collection Account related to such Serviced Whole Loan (allocated in accordance with the expense allocation provision of the
related Intercreditor Agreement). If funds in the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account relating to a Serviced
Whole Loan are insufficient, then any deficiency shall be paid from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account; provided
that the Master Servicer shall, after receiving payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, if any, (i)
promptly notify the related Companion Loan Noteholder and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to exercise on behalf of
the Trust any rights under the related Intercreditor Agreement to obtain reimbursement for a pro rata portion of such
amount allocable to the related Serviced Companion Loans from the related Companion Loan Noteholders. The Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall prepare a written report of the inspection


 



    -292-


     


    

 


describing, among other things, the condition of and any damage to the Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage
Loan that it is servicing and specifying the existence of any material vacancies in such Mortgaged Property, any sale, transfer
or abandonment of such Mortgaged Property of which it has actual knowledge, any material adverse change in the condition of the
Mortgaged Property, or any visible material waste committed on applicable Mortgaged Property. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer,
as applicable, shall send such reports to the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such reports to the 17g-5 Information
Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement), the related Other 17g-5 Information Provider (if
any) and, upon request, to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers within 20 days of completion and receipt (by the Master
Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or, if earlier, any sub-servicer on their behalf) of the inspection report, each inspection
report.


 


(b)          With
respect to each Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer, in
the case of a Specially Serviced Loan) shall exercise the Trustee’s rights, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, with
respect to the Manager under the related Loan Documents and Management Agreement, if any.


 


(c)          The
Master Servicer shall deliver all Compensating Interest Payments (other than the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated
to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account
on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall deliver the portion
of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan to the holder of the Serviced Companion
Loan on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor.


 


(d)          The
Master Servicer shall, as to each Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan that is secured by the interest
of the related Borrower under a ground lease (or, with respect to a leasehold interest that is a space lease or an air rights lease,
such space lease or air rights lease), promptly (and in any event within 60 days) after the Closing Date notify the related ground
lessor of the transfer of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement and inform such ground
lessor that any notices of default under the related ground lease (or, with respect to a leasehold interest that is a space lease
or an air rights lease, the related space lease or air rights lease) should thereafter be forwarded to the Master Servicer.


 


(e)          The
Master Servicer shall, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard and permitted by the related Loan Documents, not apply
any funds with respect to a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan (whether arising in the form of a holdback, earnout reserve, cash
trap or other similar feature) to the prepayment of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan prior to an event of default
or reasonably foreseeable event of default with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. Prior to an event of default
or reasonably foreseeable event of default any such amounts described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be held by the
Master Servicer as additional collateral for the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan.

a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time the Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.18, the Certificate Administrator may appoint a successor Authenticating

Custodian hereunder. The Certificate Administrator may appoint one or more additional Custodians to hold all or a portion of
the Mortgage Files on behalf of the Trustee and otherwise perform the duties set forth in Article II, by entering into
a Custodial Agreement with any Custodian who is not the Depositor. The Certificate Administrator agrees to comply with the

Administrator. If the Custodian is an entity other than the Certificate Administrator, the
Custodian shall maintain a fidelity bond in the form and amount that are customary for securitizations similar to the
securitization evidenced by this Agreement. The Custodian shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if one of its
Affiliates has such fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends
to the Custodian. In addition, the Custodian shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a policy or policies of
insurance covering loss occasioned by the errors and omissions of its officers and employees in connection with its

Section

The Master Servicer shall administer each Lock-Box Account, Cash Collateral Account, Escrow Account and Reserve Account in
accordance with the related Mortgage or Loan Agreement, Cash Collateral Account Agreement or Lock-Box Agreement, if any
relating to the Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans it is servicing.


 


Section 3.21 
    Servicing Advances. (a) The Master Servicer (or, to the extent provided in Section
3.21(c) of this Agreement, the Trustee) to the extent specifically provided for in this Agreement, shall make any
Servicing Advances as and to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the terms hereof with respect to the Serviced Mortgage
Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans that it is servicing. For purposes of distributions to Certificateholders and
compensation to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, Servicing Advances shall not be considered to
increase the Stated Principal Balance of any such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of
such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loans so provide.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall give the Master Servicer not less than five Business Days’
written notice with respect to any Servicing Advance to be made on any Specially Serviced Loan, before the date on which the Master
Servicer is required to make such Servicing Advance with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Loan; provided,
that the Special Servicer shall be required to provide the Master Servicer with only two Business Days’ written notice in
respect of Servicing Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis (which may include, without limitation, Servicing
Advances required to make tax or insurance payments). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes a Servicing Advance with respect
to any Serviced Whole Loan then it shall provide written notice to the related Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer and Other
Trustee of the amount of such Servicing Advance with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan as part of its monthly report following
the making of such Servicing Advance.


 


(c)          The
Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator in writing promptly upon, and in any event within one
Business Day after, becoming aware that it will be unable to make any Servicing Advance required to be made pursuant to the terms
hereof, and in connection therewith, shall set forth in such notice the amount of such Servicing Advance, the Person to whom it
is to be paid, and the circumstances and purpose of such Servicing Advance, and shall set forth therein information and instructions


 



    -295-


     


    

 


for the payment of such Servicing Advance, and, on the date specified in such notice for the payment of such Servicing Advance,
or, if the date for payment has passed or if no such date is specified, then within five Business Days following such notice, the
Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 3.21(d) of this Agreement, shall pay the amount of such Servicing Advance
in accordance with such information and instructions.


 


(d)          The
Special Servicer shall promptly furnish any party required to make Servicing Advances hereunder with any information in its possession
regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as such party required to make Servicing Advances may reasonably request
for purposes of making recoverability determinations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Special Servicer
shall have no obligation to make an affirmative determination that any Advance is, or would be, a Nonrecoverable Advance, and in
the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, then all such decisions
shall remain with the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable.


 


Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required hereunder if the Person otherwise required to make such Servicing
Advance determines that such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. In addition, neither
the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall make any Servicing Advance to the extent that it has received written notice that the
Special Servicer has determined that such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. In making
such recoverability determination, such Person will be entitled to (i) give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advance
or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the recovery of which, at the time of such consideration,
is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related
Mortgage Loan (or the related Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable) are a source of recovery not only for the Servicing Advance under
consideration, but also as a potential source of recovery of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount
which is being or may be deferred or delayed and (ii) consider (among other things) the obligations of the Borrower under the terms
of the related Mortgage Loan (or the related Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable) as it may have been modified, (iii) consider (among
other things) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as is” or then current conditions and occupancies, as modified
by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer)
regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (iv) estimate and consider
(consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) (among other things) future
expenses and (v) estimate and consider (among other things) the timing of recoveries.


 


The Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior Servicing Advances
for purposes of nonrecoverability determinations as if such Unliquidated Advances were unreimbursed Servicing Advances. If an Appraisal
of the related Mortgaged Property shall not have been obtained within the prior 9-month period (and the Master Servicer and the
Trustee shall each request any such appraisal from the Special Servicer prior to ordering an Appraisal pursuant to this sentence)
or if such an Appraisal shall have been obtained but as a result of unforeseen occurrences, such


 



    -296-


     


    

 


Appraisal does not, in the good
faith determination of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reflect current market conditions, and the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, and the Special Servicer cannot agree on the appropriate downward adjustment to such Appraisal,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, may, subject to its reasonable and good faith determination
that such Appraisal will demonstrate the nonrecoverability of the related Advance, obtain an Appraisal for such purpose at the
expense of the Trust Fund (and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the
allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement).


 


Any determination by
the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or the Trustee that the Master Servicer or Trustee, as the case may be, has made a Servicing
Advance that is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or any determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee
that any proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall be evidenced in the case
of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer by a certificate of a Servicing Officer delivered to the other, to the Trustee,
the Directing Holder (but only if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Operating Advisor, the
Certificate Administrator, any related Companion Loan holder(s) and the Depositor and, in the case of the Trustee, by a certificate
of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, delivered to the Depositor, the Directing Holder (but only if no Consultation Termination
Event has occurred and is continuing), the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, any related Companion Loan holder(s),
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, which in each case sets forth such nonrecoverability determination and the considerations
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (such certificate
accompanied by, to the extent available, income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and
other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination,
together with any existing Appraisal or any Updated Appraisal); provided, that with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan,
the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any Servicing Advance
previously made or proposed to be made is nonrecoverable and shall deliver to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator,
the Directing Holder (but only if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Operating Advisor, the
Trustee, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (if any) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such
notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement), notice of such
determination. Any such determination may be relied upon by but shall not be binding on the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
and the Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make an affirmative determination
that any Advance is, or would be, a Nonrecoverable Advance, and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that
such an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, then all such decisions shall remain with the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable.
If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance
is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each have the right to make its own subsequent
determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing
Advance.


 






    -297-


     


    

 


Any such Person may update
or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination or prohibit any
such other authorized Person from making a determination, that a Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and (consistent
with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) may obtain, at the expense of the Trust
(and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of the
related Intercreditor Agreement), any analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for such purposes. Absent
bad faith, any such determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders
and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders.


 


The Trustee, in determining
whether or not a Servicing Advance previously made is, or a proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would be, a Nonrecoverable Servicing
Advance shall use its reasonable judgment.


 


With respect to the payment
of insurance premiums and delinquent tax assessments, in the event that the Master Servicer determines that a Servicing Advance
of such amounts would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall deliver notice of such determination to the
Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Special Servicer. Upon receipt of such notice, the Master Servicer (with respect
to any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan that is a Performing Loan) and the Special Servicer (with
respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property) shall determine (with the reasonable assistance of the Master Servicer)
whether the payment of such amount (i) is necessary to preserve the related Mortgaged Property and (ii) would be in the best interests
of the Certificateholders and, in the case of any Serviced Companion Loans, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as
a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender
(and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature
of such Subordinate Companion Loan)). If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines that the payment of such amount
(i) is necessary to preserve the related Mortgaged Property and (ii) would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and,
in the case of any Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder, the Special Servicer (in the case of
a determination by the Special Servicer) shall direct the Master Servicer in writing to make such payment and the Master Servicer
shall make such payment, to the extent of available funds, from amounts in the Collection Account or, if a Serviced Whole Loan
is involved, from amounts in the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Section 3.21, the Master Servicer may elect (but shall not be required) to make a payment
out of the Collection Account to pay for certain expenses specified in this sentence notwithstanding that the Master Servicer has
determined that a Servicing Advance with respect to such expenditure would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (unless, with
respect to Specially Serviced Loans or Serviced REO Loans, the Special Servicer has notified the Master Servicer to not make such
expenditure), where making such expenditure would prevent (i) the related Mortgaged Property from being uninsured or being sold
at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any
security for the related Mortgage Loan; provided


 



    -298-


     


    

 


 that in each instance, the Master Servicer determines in accordance with
the Servicing Standard (as evidenced by a certificate of a Servicing Officer delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator)
that making such expenditure is in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the
related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion
Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)). The Master Servicer may elect to obtain
reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances from the Trust Fund in accordance with Section 3.06 of this Agreement.


 


(e)          The
Master Servicer and/or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to the reimbursement of Servicing Advances made by any of
them to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement, if applicable, together with any related Advance
Interest Amount in respect of such Servicing Advances, and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee each hereby
covenants and agrees to promptly seek and effect the reimbursement of such Servicing Advances from the related Borrowers to the
extent permitted by applicable law and the related Loan Documents.


 


The parties acknowledge
that, pursuant to the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the applicable Other Servicer is obligated to make Servicing
Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. The Other Servicer, the Other Special Servicer (to the extent
it has made an advance), the Other Trustee or fiscal agent or other Persons making advances under the applicable Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement shall be entitled to reimbursement in accordance with Section 3.06(b) of this Agreement for the
pro rata portion (based on Stated Principal Balance) of the related Mortgage Loan (after amounts allocated to the related
Subordinate Companion Loan, if any) with respect to any Servicing Advance that is nonrecoverable (with, in each case, any pro
rata portion of accrued and unpaid interest thereon provided for under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) in the manner
set forth in the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable.


 


With respect to any Serviced
Whole Loan, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, determines that a proposed Servicing Advance
with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan, if made, or any outstanding Servicing Advance with respect to any such Mortgage Loan
previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, shall
provide the Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer and the Other Trustee under each related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement
with written notice of such determination, together with supporting evidence for such determination within two (2) Business Days
after such determination or such longer time period permitted by the applicable Intercreditor Agreement.


 


Section
3.22      Appointment and Replacement of Special Servicer. (a) Midland Loan Services, a
Division of PNC Bank, National Association is hereby appointed as the initial Special Servicer to service each Specially
Serviced Loan and related REO Property.


 


(b)          For
so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder shall be entitled to terminate the
rights (subject to Section 3.05, Section 3.12 and Section 6.03(a) of this Agreement) and obligations of the
Special Servicer


 



    -299-


     


    

 


under this Agreement, with or without cause, and appoint a successor Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02
of this Agreement, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent, the
Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee; provided that, with
respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Directing Holder’s right to terminate the rights and obligations of the Special
Servicer under this Agreement with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan shall be subject to the limitations set forth in the related
Intercreditor Agreement; provided, further that with respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan, the limitations on
termination without cause set forth in clause (b) shall not apply to the related Loan-Specific Directing Holder’s
right to terminate the Special Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement without cause with respect to such
Servicing Shift Whole Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. For the sake of clarity, the recommendation
of replacement of the Special Servicer by the Operating Advisor and the approval of the Certificateholders of a Qualified Replacement
Special Servicer shall not preclude the Directing Holder from appointing a replacement special servicer, provided that such replacement
may not be the removed Special Servicer or its Affiliate.


 


(c)          If
at any time the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (i) the Special Servicer is
not performing its duties as required hereunder or is otherwise not acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard, and (ii)
the replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole, then the
Operating Advisor shall deliver to the Trustee and to the Certificate Administrator, with a copy to the Special Servicer, a written
report setting forth the reasons supporting its recommendation (along with any information the Operating Advisor considered relevant

any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and,
if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with
a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)). In any event,
for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, if the Directing Holder does not approve an Asset Status
Report within 60 Business Days from the first submission of an Asset Status Report,


 






    -309-


     


    

 


the Special Servicer shall follow the Directing
Holder’s direction, if such direction is consistent with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that if
the Directing Holder’s direction would cause the Special Servicer to violate the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer
may act upon the most recently submitted form of Asset Status Report if consistent with the Servicing Standard. The procedures
described in this paragraph are collectively referred to as the “Directing Holder Asset Status Report Review Process”.
Prior to an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver each Final Asset Status Report to
the Operating Advisor following the completion of the Directing Holder Asset Status Report Review Process.


 


The Special Servicer
may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report, provided such
report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section, and in particular, shall modify
and resubmit such Asset Status Report to the Directing Holder (with a copy to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) if
(i) the estimated sales proceeds, foreclosure proceeds, workout or restructure terms or anticipated debt forgiveness varies materially
from the amount on which the original report was based or (ii) the related Borrower becomes the subject of bankruptcy proceedings.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer (i) may, following the occurrence of an extraordinary event with respect to
the related Mortgaged Property, take any action set forth in such Asset Status Report before the expiration of a 10 Business Day
period if the Special Servicer has reasonably determined that failure to take such action would materially and adversely affect
the interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders
(as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single
lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate
nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)), and it has made a reasonable effort to contact the Directing Holder and, if any Serviced
Whole Loan is involved, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders and (ii) in any case, shall determine whether such affirmative
disapproval is not in the best interests of all the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related
Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion
Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)) pursuant to the Servicing Standard, and,
upon making such determination, shall implement the recommended action outlined in the Asset Status Report. The Asset Status Report
is not intended to replace or satisfy any specific consent or approval right which the Directing Holder may have. Any Asset Status
Report delivered with respect to a Conflicted Controlling Class Mortgage Loan shall be sent via email (or such other electronic
means mutually acceptable to the parties) in one or more separate files labeled by the Special Servicer “Conflicted Information”
followed by the applicable loan number and loan name to cmbsexcludedinformation@wellsfargo.com.


 


The Special Servicer
shall have the authority to meet with the Borrower for any Specially Serviced Loan and take such actions consistent with the Servicing
Standard and the related Asset Status Report. The Special Servicer shall not take any action inconsistent with the


 






    -310-


     


    

 


related Asset
Status Report, unless such action would be required in order to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, this Agreement,
applicable law or the related Loan Documents.


 


During the continuance
of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver each Asset Status Report prepared in connection
with a Specially Serviced Loan to the Operating Advisor (and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Conflicted Loan applicable
to the Directing Holder and only for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing
Holder). During the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall provide comments to the
Special Servicer in respect of each Asset Status Report, if any, within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) receipt
of such Asset Status Report or (ii) receipt of such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor and in
the possession of the Special Servicer related thereto, and propose possible alternative courses of action to the extent it determines
such alternatives to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (including any Certificateholders that are holders of the
Control Eligible Certificates), as a collective whole. The Special Servicer shall consider such alternative courses of action,
if any, and any other feedback provided by the Operating Advisor (and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Conflicted
Loan applicable to the Directing Holder and only for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing,
the Directing Holder) in connection with the Special Servicer’s preparation of any Asset Status Report that is provided while
an Operating Advisor Consultation Event is continuing. The Special Servicer may revise the Asset Status Report as it deems necessary
to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor (and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a
Conflicted Loan applicable to the Directing Holder and only for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is
continuing, the Directing Holder), to the extent the Special Servicer determines that the Operating Advisor’s and/or Directing
Holder’s input and/or recommendations are consistent with the Servicing Standard and in the best interest of the Certificateholders
as a collective whole (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the best interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of
the related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Companion
Loan)). Promptly upon determining whether or not to revise any Asset Status Report to take into account any input and/or comments
from the Operating Advisor or the Directing Holder, the Special Servicer shall revise the Asset Status Report, if applicable, and
deliver to the Operating Advisor and the Directing Holder either the revised Asset Status Report (until a Final Asset Status Report
is issued). The procedures described in this paragraph are collectively referred to as the “ASR Consultation Process”.


 


After the occurrence
and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder (and at any time with respect to any applicable
Conflicted Loan) shall have no right to consent to any Asset Status Report under this Section 3.23. After the occurrence
and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the
Directing Holder (except with respect to any applicable Conflicted Loan), and after the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Operating Advisor Consultation Event (or with respect to a Conflicted Loan applicable to the Directing Holder), the Operating
Advisor, shall consult with the Special Servicer (in person or remotely via electronic, telephonic or other mutually agreeable
communication) and may propose alternative courses of action and provide such other feedback as the Operating Advisor determines
in respect of any Asset Status Report. During the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any


 






    -311-


     


    

 


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


 


In addition, with respect
to a Serviced Whole Loan, such Asset Status Reports are subject to any non-binding consultation rights, if any, that the holders
of the related Pari Passu Companion Loans have pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement.


 


If neither the Operating
Advisor nor the Directing Holder proposes alternative courses of action within 10 days after receipt of such Asset Status Report,
the Special Servicer shall implement the Asset Status Report as proposed by the Special Servicer.


 


No direction, advice,
consent, approval or disapproval of the Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor or the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall
(a) require, permit or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan, any related Intercreditor
Agreement, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, Section 3.09, Section 3.16,
Section 3.18 and Section 3.25 and the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing
Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC and the grantor trust status of the
Grantor Trust, or (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “contribution” tax under
the REMIC Provisions, or (c) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trust Fund, the Certificate Administrator,
the Paying Agent, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents to any claim,
suit or liability or (d) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, Certificate Administrator’s, Trustee’s
or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall not be required to follow any
direction of the Directing Holder described in this paragraph.


 


(f)       Unless
a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Operating Advisor only each
Final Asset Status Report.


 


Section
3.24    Special Instructions for the Master Servicer and/or Special Servicer. (a) Prior to taking
any action with respect to a Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan secured by Mortgaged Properties located in a
“one-action” state, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with legal counsel, the
fees and expenses of which shall be an expense of the Trust Fund (and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, such expense
shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement).


 


(b)       The
Master Servicer shall send written notice to each Borrower (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and the related
Manager and clearing bank


 






    -312-


     


    

 


relating to a Serviced Mortgage Loan that it is servicing that, if applicable, it and/or the Trustee
has been appointed as the “Designee” of the “Lender” under any related Lock-Box Agreement.


 


(c)       Without
limiting the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder with respect to the enforcement of a Borrower’s obligations under
the related Loan Documents, the Master Servicer agrees that it shall, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, enforce the provisions
of the Loan Documents relating to the Serviced Mortgage Loan that it is servicing with respect to the collection of Prepayment
Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges.


 


(d)       If
a Rating Agency shall charge a fee in connection with providing a Rating Agency Confirmation, the Master Servicer shall require
the related Borrower (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) to pay such fee to the extent not inconsistent with
the applicable Loan Documents. If such fee remains unpaid, such fee shall be an expense of the Trust Fund (allocated as an Additional
Trust Fund Expense in the same manner as Realized Losses as set forth in Section 4.01(e) of this Agreement) and, (1) in
the case of a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan with a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (but not a Subordinate Companion Loan),
allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the costs of which may be advanced
as a Servicing Advance.


 


(e)       The
Master Servicer shall, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, use commercially reasonable efforts to exercise on behalf of
the Trust any right of the Trust to recover any amounts owed by the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders to the Trust Fund pursuant
to the related Intercreditor Agreement (but in the case of any Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to Section 1.02).
The cost of such enforcement on behalf of the Trust shall be paid and reimbursable as a Servicing Advance.


 


(f)       With
respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan with a Stated Principal Balance equal to or greater
than the lesser of 5% of the Stated Principal Balance of all Mortgage Loans held by the Trust Fund and $35,000,000, or with respect
to any Mortgage Loan that is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans based on Stated Principal Balance, to the extent not inconsistent
with the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall not consent to a change of franchise affiliation
with respect to a Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) serviced hereunder
or the property manager with respect to a Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Serviced Mortgage
Loan) serviced hereunder unless the Master Servicer obtains a Rating Agency Confirmation relating to the Certificates and Serviced
Companion Loan Securities, if any.


 


Section
3.25    Certain Rights and Obligations of the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer. (a)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required
to take or refrain from taking any action pursuant to instructions from the Directing Holder or a Non-Controlling Note
Holder, or due to any failure to approve an action by the Directing Holder, or due to any objection by the Directing Holder
or a Non-Controlling Note Holder that would (i) cause any one of them to violate applicable law, the terms of any Loan
Documents, any Intercreditor Agreement, this Agreement, including the Servicing Standard, or the REMIC Provisions of the
Code, (ii) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Paying Agent, a Mortgage Loan Seller, the
Trust Fund, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the


 






    -313-


     


    

 


Certificate Administrator (in any of
its capacities), or the Custodian or their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents to any claim, suit
or liability, (iii) materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s
responsibilities, or (iv) cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to act, or fail to act, in a manner that is not
in the best interests of the Certificateholders.


 


(b)       The
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall discuss with the Directing Holder (for so long as no Consultation
Termination Event has occurred and other than with respect to any applicable Conflicted Loan) and the Operating Advisor, on a monthly
basis, the performance of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is a Specially Serviced Loan, which is delinquent, has
been placed on a “Watch List” or has been identified by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as exhibiting deteriorating
performance.


 


Section
3.26    Modification, Waiver, Amendment and Consents. (a) Subject to Sections 3.25, Section
3.26(f) and 3.27, and, if applicable, each Intercreditor Agreement, (i) with respect to any Performing Loan and
actions that do not involve Special Servicer Major Decisions, the Master Servicer, or (ii) with respect to (A) any Specially
Serviced Loan and (B) Special Servicer Major Decisions irrespective of whether the related Mortgage Loan is a Performing
Loan, the Special Servicer, in each case subject to (x) the rights of the Directing Holder and (y) with respect to a Serviced
Whole Loan with a Subordinate Companion Loan, the rights of the holder of the related Subordinate Companion Loans, and, after
consultation with the Operating Advisor (if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing and to the
extent the Operating Advisor has consultation rights pursuant to Section 3.23(e), Section 3.31 and Section
6.07 of this Agreement) and the Risk Retention Consultation Party (to the extent the Risk Retention Consultation Party
has consultation rights pursuant to Section 6.07 of this Agreement), may modify, waive, amend, consent or take such
other action with respect to any term of any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan if such
modification, waiver, amendment, consent or other action (A) is consistent with the Servicing Standard and (B) would
not constitute a “significant modification” of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and would not otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Each of the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer may conclusively rely on an Opinion of Counsel in meeting this requirement. In order to meet the foregoing
requirements, in the case of a release of real property collateral securing a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, as applicable, shall observe the REMIC requirements of the Code with respect to a required payment of principal if
the loan-to-value ratio immediately after the release exceeds 125% with respect to the related real property collateral. In
connection with (i) the release of a Mortgaged Property or any portion of a Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related
Mortgage or (ii) the taking of a Mortgaged Property or any portion of a Mortgaged Property by exercise of the power of
eminent domain or condemnation, if the Loan Documents require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to
calculate (or to approve the calculation of the related Borrower of) the loan-to-value ratio of the remaining Mortgaged
Property or Mortgaged Properties or the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property
or Mortgaged Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, then such
calculation shall exclude the value of any personal property and going concern value, if any. If, following any such release
or taking, the loan-to-value ratio as so calculated is greater than 125%, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as
applicable, shall


 






    -314-


     


    

 


require payment of principal by a “qualified amount” as determined under Revenue Procedure
2010-30 or successor provisions, unless the related Borrower provides an Opinion of Counsel that if such amount is not paid
the related Mortgage Loan will not fail to be a Qualified Mortgage.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may mutually agree that the Master Servicer will process any of the foregoing matters
that are Special Servicer Major Decisions with respect to any Performing Loan. If the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer
mutually agree that the Master Servicer will process any Special Servicer Major Decision with respect to a Performing Loan, the
Master Servicer shall obtain the consent (or deemed consent) of the Special Servicer as provided in Section 3.26(m).


 


(b)       Neither
the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may extend the Maturity Date of any Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or Specially
Serviced Loan beyond the date that is the date occurring later than the earlier of (1) five years prior to the Rated Final Distribution
Date and (2) in the case of a Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or Specially Serviced Loan secured solely or primarily by the
related Borrower’s interest in a ground lease (or, with respect to a leasehold interest where the related Borrower is the
lessee and that is a space lease or an air rights lease, such space lease or air rights lease), the date that is 20 years prior
to the expiration date of such ground lease (or, with respect to a leasehold interest where the related Borrower is the lessee
and that is a space lease or an air rights lease, such space lease or air rights lease) (or 10 years prior to the expiration date
of such lease if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable gives due consideration to the remaining term of such
ground lease (or, with respect to a leasehold interest where the Borrower is the lessee and that is a space lease or an air rights
lease, such space lease or air rights lease) and such extension is in the best interest of the Certificateholders and, with respect
to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and
(with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan) Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder constituted a single lender (and with respect to any
Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion
Loan)) and, (A) if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, with the consent of the Directing Holder and (B)
to the extent such extension constitutes a Major Decision, after consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant
to Section 6.07).


 


(c)       Neither
the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit any Borrower to add or substitute any collateral for an outstanding Serviced
Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan, which collateral constitutes real property, unless the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have obtained a Rating Agency Confirmation relating to the Certificates and Serviced
Companion Loan Securities, if any.


 


(d)       Any
payment of interest, which is deferred pursuant to any modification, waiver or amendment permitted hereunder, shall not, for purposes
hereof, including, without limitation, calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders or, if applicable, Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, notwithstanding
that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or such modification, waiver or amendment so permit.


 






    -315-


     


    

 


(e)       Except
for waivers of Penalty Charges and waivers of notice periods, all material modifications, waivers and amendments of the Serviced
Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans in accordance with this Section 3.26 or Section 3.27 of this
Agreement (with respect to Serviced Whole Loans) shall be in writing.


 


(f)       The
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Risk Retention
Consultation Party, the Directing Holder (other than if a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Operating
Advisor (only if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Depositor, the related Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholder (if any) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s
Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement), in writing, of any modification, waiver, material consent or amendment
of any term of any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the
Custodian for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver,
material consent or amendment, promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days) following the execution thereof.


 


(g)       The
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may (subject to the Servicing Standard), as a condition to granting any request by a Borrower
for consent, modification, waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing, the granting of which is within its discretion pursuant
to the terms of the instruments evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and is permitted by the
terms of this Agreement and applicable law, require that such Borrower pay to it (i) as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable
and customary fee for the additional services performed in connection with such request (provided that the charging of such
fee would not constitute a “significant modification” of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan within the
meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)), and (ii) any related costs and expenses incurred by it. In no event shall
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be entitled to payment for such fees or expenses unless such payment is collected from
the related Borrower.


 


(h)       Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not permit the substitution of any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions
of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan (or any portion thereof), if any, unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations
Section 1.860G-2(a)(8) and satisfies the conditions set forth in Section 3.09(f) of this Agreement.


 


(i)       Notwithstanding
anything herein or in the related Loan Documents to the contrary, the Master Servicer may permit the substitution of direct, non-callable
“government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or any other
securities that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) (including U.S. government agency securities if such
securities are eligible defeasance collateral under then current guidelines of the Rating Agencies) for any Mortgaged Property
pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan (or any portion thereof)
in lieu of the defeasance collateral specified in the related Loan Documents; provided that, the Master Servicer reasonably
determines that allowing their use would not cause a default or event of default under the related Loan Documents to become reasonably
foreseeable and the Master Servicer receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense


 






    -316-


     


    

 


of the Borrower to the extent permitted under
the Loan Documents) to the effect that such use would not be and would not constitute a “significant modification”
of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and would not otherwise cause
an Adverse REMIC Event and provided, that the requirements set forth in Section 3.09(f) of this Agreement are satisfied.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
with respect to (i) all of the Mortgage Loans originated or acquired by GACC that are subject to defeasance, and (ii) all of the
Mortgage Loans originated or acquired by CREFI that are subject to defeasance, each of GACC and CREFI, as applicable, has transferred
to a third party or has retained on behalf of itself or an Affiliate the right to establish or designate the successor borrower
and/or to purchase or cause to be purchased the related defeasance collateral (any such right or obligation, the “Retained
Defeasance Rights and Obligations”). In the event the Master Servicer receives notice of a defeasance request with respect
to a Mortgage Loan for which GACC or CREFI, as applicable, is the related Mortgage Loan Seller, which such Mortgage Loan provides
for Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations in the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall provide, within
five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, written notice of such defeasance request to GACC or CREFI, as applicable, in
the case of any such Mortgage Loan for which GACC or CREFI, as applicable, is the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Until such time
as GACC or CREFI, as applicable, provides the Master Servicer with written notice to the contrary, the notice of a defeasance of
a Mortgage Loan with Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations as to which (i) GACC is the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall
be delivered to German American Capital Corporation, 60 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005, Attention: Lainie Kaye with copies
via email to cmbs.requests@db.com, and (ii) CREFI is the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be delivered to Citi Real Estate
Funding Inc., 390 Greenwich Street, 5th Floor, New York, New York 10013, Attention: Paul Vanderslice, Facsimile: (212) 723-8599,
with a copy to Citi Real Estate Funding Inc., 390 Greenwich Street, 7th Floor, New York, New York 10013, Attention: Richard Simpson,
Facsimile: (646) 328-2943, and with copies by electronic mail to richard.simpson@citi.com and ryan.m.oconnor@citi.com
and. With respect to any Mortgage Loan originated or acquired by GACC or CREFI, as applicable, that is subject to defeasance, if
the successor borrower is not designated or formed by GACC or CREFI, as the case may be, or any Affiliate or successor thereto,
the successor borrower shall be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard.


 


(j)       If
required under the related Loan Documents or if otherwise consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer shall establish
and maintain one or more accounts, which may be sub-accounts of the Collection Account (the “Defeasance Accounts”),
into which all payments received by the Master Servicer from any defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property shall
be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Defeasance Accounts in accordance with the Loan Documents. Each Defeasance
Account shall at all times be an Eligible Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit
such amounts to be maintained in the Defeasance Account for a period in excess of 12 months, unless such amounts are reinvested
by the Master Servicer in “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company
Act of 1940, or any other securities that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii). To the extent not required
or permitted to be placed in a separate account, the Master Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance
collateral substituted for any Mortgaged


 






    -317-


     


    

 


Property into the Collection Account or, if a Serviced Whole Loan is involved, the Serviced
Whole Loan Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable,
in advance of its Due Date in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of Principal Distribution Amount, and not as a prepayment
of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master
Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Collection Account or, if a Serviced Whole Loan is involved, the Serviced
Whole Loan Collection Account for a period in excess of 365 days.


 


(k)       Any
right to take any action, grant or withhold any consent or otherwise exercise any right, election or remedy afforded the Directing
Holder under this Agreement may, unless otherwise expressly provided herein to the contrary, be affirmatively waived by the Directing
Holder by written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable.
Upon delivery of any such notice of waiver given by the Directing Holder, any time period (exclusive or otherwise) afforded the
Directing Holder to exercise any such right, make any such election or grant or withhold any such consent shall thereupon be deemed
to have expired with the same force and effect as if the specific time period set forth in this Agreement applicable thereto had
itself expired. If the Master Servicer or Special Servicer determines that a refusal to consent by the Directing Holder or any
advice from the Directing Holder would cause the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate applicable law,
the terms of the applicable Loan Documents, any related Intercreditor Agreements, the REMIC Provisions or the terms of this Agreement,
including without limitation, the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall disregard such refusal to consent
or advice and notify the Directing Holder, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder
(if any) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website
pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement) of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the
basis therefor.


 


(l)       Any
modification, waiver or amendment of, or consents or approvals relating to, a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is a Specially
Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Loan (i) shall be performed by the Special Servicer and not the Master Servicer, (ii) to the extent
provided in this Agreement and/or the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, shall be subject to the consent of the related Directing
Holder and (iii) shall be structured so as to be consistent with the allocation and payment priorities in the related Loan Documents
and Intercreditor Agreement, if any, such that neither the Trust as holder of the Mortgage Loan nor a holder of any related Serviced
Companion Loan gains a priority over the other such holder that is not reflected in the related Loan Documents and Intercreditor
Agreement.


 


(m)       In
addition, with respect to a Performing Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer, prior to taking action
with respect to any Special Servicer Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to a Special Servicer
Major Decision), shall refer the request to the Special Servicer, which shall process the request directly or, if mutually agreed
to by the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall (subject to the consent of the Special Servicer)
process such request. If the Master Servicer processes such request and is recommending approval of such request, the Master Servicer
shall prepare and submit its written recommendation and analysis to the Special


 






    -318-


     


    

 


Servicer with all information in the Master Servicer’s
possession that the Special Servicer may reasonably request in order to withhold or grant its consent, and in all cases the Special
Servicer shall be entitled (subject to the consultation rights of the Operating Advisor and Risk Retention Consultation Party or
the consent or consultation rights of the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.07) to approve or disapprove any modification,
waiver or amendment that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision. When the Special Servicer’s consent is required hereunder,
such consent shall be deemed given 15 Business Days, or such longer time period pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor
Agreement but not less than five (5) Business Days after the time period set forth therein for Directing Holder approval, (or in
connection with an Acceptable Insurance Default, 90 days) after receipt (unless earlier objected to) by the Special Servicer from
the Master Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such proposed Special Servicer
Major Decision together with such other information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer and reasonably available to the
Master Servicer. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, neither the Master Servicer (with respect
to any Major Decision processed by the Master Servicer) nor the Special Servicer (with respect to any Major Decision processed
by the Special Servicer) will be permitted to take any action constituting a Major Decision, as to which the Directing Holder has
objected in writing within 10 Business Days (or, in connection with an Acceptable Insurance Default, 30 days) after receipt by
the Directing Holder of the Master Servicer’s and/or Special Servicer’s, as applicable, written analysis and recommendation
together with such other information reasonably requested by the Directing Holder; provided that if such written objection
has not been received by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, within such 10-Business Day (or 30-day) period,
the Directing Holder will be deemed to have approved such action.


 


(n)       The
Master Servicer shall provide the Special Servicer with any notice that it receives relating to a default by the borrower under
a ground lease where the collateral for the Mortgage Loan includes the ground lease, and the Special Servicer will determine in
accordance with the Servicing Standard whether to cure any borrower defaults relating to ground leases.


 


(o)       With
respect to any Borrower request or other action on a non-Specially Serviced Loan that is not a Major Decision, the Master Servicer
shall not be required to obtain the consent of or consult with the Special Servicer or the Directing Holder.


 


Section
3.27     Certain Intercreditor Matters Relating to the Whole Loans. (a) With respect to
Serviced Whole Loans, except for those duties to be performed by, and notices to be furnished by, the Trustee under this
Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall perform such duties and furnish such notices,
reports and information on behalf of the Trust Fund as may be the obligation of the Trust, or the obligation of the master
servicer or the special servicer, as applicable, following securitization, under the related Intercreditor Agreement.


 


(b)       The
Master Servicer shall maintain a register (the “Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder Register”) on which the Master
Servicer shall record the names and addresses of the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders and wire transfer instructions for such
Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders from time to time, to the extent such information is provided in writing to the Master Servicer
by a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder. Each Serviced


 






    -319-


     


    

 


Companion Loan Noteholder has agreed to inform the Master Servicer of its
name, address, taxpayer identification number and wiring instructions (to the extent the foregoing information is not already contained
in the related Intercreditor Agreement) and of any transfer thereof (together with any instruments of transfer). The name and address
of each initial Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder as of the Closing Date is set forth on Schedule VII hereto. The Master
Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the information delivered by any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder until
it receives notice of transfer or of any change in information.


 


In no event shall the
Master Servicer be obligated to pay any party the amounts payable to a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder hereunder other than
the Person listed as the applicable Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder on the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder Register. In the
event that a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder transfers the related Serviced Companion Loan without notice to the Master Servicer,
the Master Servicer shall have no liability whatsoever for any misdirected payment on such Serviced Companion Loan and shall have
no obligation to recover and redirect such payment.


 


The Master Servicer shall
promptly provide the names and addresses of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder to any party hereto, any related Companion Loan
Noteholder or any successor thereto upon written request, and any such party or successor may, without further investigation, conclusively
rely upon such information. The Master Servicer shall have no liability to any Person for the provision of any such names and addresses.


 


(c)       The
Directing Holder shall not owe any fiduciary duty to the Trustee, any Master Servicer, any Special Servicer, any Certificateholder
(including the Controlling Class Representative, if applicable) or any noteholder of a Serviced Whole Loan. The Directing Holder
will not have any liability to the Certificateholders (including the Controlling Class Representative, if applicable) or any other
noteholder of a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the
giving of any consent, pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment.


 


(d)       With
respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Directing Holder shall be entitled to exercise the consent rights, cure rights and purchase
rights, as applicable, to the extent set forth in the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, in accordance with the terms of the related
Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement.


 


(e)       The
Special Servicer (if any Serviced Companion Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan or has become a Serviced REO Loan) or the Master
Servicer (otherwise), as applicable, shall take all actions relating to the servicing and/or administration of, and (subject to
Section 3.13 and Section 3.17 of this Agreement and the following paragraph) the preparation and delivery of reports
and other information with respect to, the Serviced Whole Loan related to any Serviced Companion Loan or any related Serviced REO
Property required to be performed by the holder of the related Mortgage Loan or contemplated to be performed by a servicer, in
any case pursuant to and as required by each related Intercreditor Agreement and/or any related mezzanine intercreditor agreement
existing on the Closing Date and any related Intercreditor Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement not existing on the Closing
Date that is provided to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. In addition notwithstanding


 






    -320-


     


    

 


anything herein to
the contrary, the following considerations shall apply with respect to the servicing of a Serviced Companion Loan:


 


(i)        none
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall make any P&I Advance with respect to the Serviced Companion
Loan; and


 


(ii)       the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each consult with and obtain the consent of the related Serviced Companion Loan
Noteholder(s) to the extent required by the related Intercreditor Agreement.


 


The Master Servicer or
Special Servicer, as applicable, shall timely provide to each related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder any reports or notices
required to be delivered to such Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement, and the Special
Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Special
Servicer in preparing/delivering any such report or notice with respect to special servicing matters.


 


If any Serviced Companion
Loan or any portion thereof or any particular payments thereon are included in a REMIC or a “grantor trust” (within
the meaning of the Grantor Trust Provisions), then neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall knowingly take any
action that would result in the equivalent of an Adverse REMIC Event with respect to such REMIC or adversely affect the tax status
of such grantor trust as a grantor trust.


 


The parties hereto acknowledge
that a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder shall not (1) owe any fiduciary duty to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Certificateholder or (2) have any liability to the Trustee or the Certificateholders
for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement or the giving
of any consent or for errors in judgment. Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate, shall be deemed to have confirmed
its understanding that a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (i) may take or refrain from taking actions that favor its interests
or the interests of its affiliates over the Certificateholders, (ii) may have special relationships and interests that conflict
with the interests of the Certificateholders and shall be deemed to have agreed to take no action against a Serviced Companion
Loan Noteholder or any of its officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or
conflicts and (iii) shall not be liable by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting solely in its interest or in the
interest of its affiliates.


 


The parties hereto recognize
and acknowledge the respective rights of each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder under the related Intercreditor Agreement. Each
of the rights of a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder under or contemplated by this Section 3.27(e) may be exercisable by
a designee thereof on its behalf; provided that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator
and the Trustee are provided with written notice by the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder of such designation (upon which
such party may conclusively rely) and the contact details of the designee.


 


Notwithstanding anything
herein or in the Intercreditor Agreement to the contrary, no direction or objection by the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder may
require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of any


 






    -321-


     


    

 


Mortgage Loan, applicable
law, this Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement or the REMIC Provisions, including without limitation the Master Servicer’s
or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Depositor, a Mortgage Loan Seller, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Paying Agent, the
Trust Fund, the Certificate Administrator (in any of its capacities) or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the scope
of the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s responsibilities hereunder.


 


Any reference to servicing
any of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with any of the related Loan Documents (including the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage)
shall also mean, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement.


 


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


 


For purposes of exercising
any rights that the Directing Holder of the Mortgage Note for any Mortgage Loan in a Serviced Whole Loan may have under the related
Intercreditor Agreement, the Directing Holder shall be the designee of the Trust, as such noteholder, and the Trustee shall, upon
request, take such actions as may be necessary under the related Intercreditor Agreement to effect such designation. The Certificate
Administrator shall provide notice of the identity of the Controlling Class Representative (to the extent the Certificate Administrator
has received notice of a change in the identity of the Controlling Class Representative), upon request, to the other parties to
the related Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent the identity and contact information of such parties to such Intercreditor Agreement
are actually known to the Certificate Administrator.


 


(f)       With
respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver information comparable to the above described information
in Section 3.13(c) and Section 3.13(d) hereof to the same Persons as described above in Section 3.13(c) and
Section 3.13(d) and according to the same time frames as described above in Section 3.13(c) and Section 3.13(d),
to the extent such Master Servicer has timely received such information from the Other Servicer under the Other Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


Promptly following the
Closing Date or, as applicable, upon the receipt of notice by the Certificate Administrator of a Servicing Shift Securitization
Date, the Certificate Administrator shall send written notice (which notice may be by email) substantially in the form of Exhibit
EE hereto, accompanied by a copy of an executed version of this Agreement, with respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan
to each applicable Other Depositor, Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer, Other Trustee, Other Operating Advisor and Other Asset
Representations Reviewer stating that, as of the Closing Date, the Trustee is the holder of the applicable Non-Serviced Mortgage
Loan and directing each such recipient to remit to the Master Servicer no later than one (1) Business Day after each Determination
Date all amounts payable to, and to forward, deliver or otherwise make available, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer no
later than one (1) Business Day after each Determination Date all reports, statements, documents, communications and other information

available to, the holder of the applicable Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan under
the related Intercreditor Agreement and Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Such notice shall also provide contact information
for the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Holder, the 17g-5 Information
Provider and the Rating Agencies.


 


With respect to a Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan, if the applicable Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer or Other Trustee shall be replaced in accordance with the
terms of the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, promptly upon notice thereof, the applicable party to this Agreement
that receives such notice shall, upon request, acknowledge such successor as the successor to the Other Servicer, Other Special
Servicer or Other Trustee, as the case may be.


 


With respect to a Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan, upon its receipt of written notice of the replacement of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee,
the Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to each related Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer,
Other Trustee and Other Operating Advisor, together with relevant contact information of the successor Master Servicer, Special
Servicer or Trustee, as applicable.


 


With respect to each
Serviced Whole Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide each Companion Loan Noteholder and,
if applicable, related Non-Directing Holder (or its designee or representative), within the same time frame and to the same extent
it is required to provide such information and materials to the Certificateholders or the Directing Holder, as applicable (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), hereunder with (1) copies of each financial statement received by the Master Servicer pursuant
to the terms of the related Loan Documents, (2) copies of any notice of default sent to the Borrower and (3) subject to the terms
of the Loan Documents, copies of any other documents or information relating to the Serviced Whole Loan (including, without limitation,
property inspection reports, loan servicing statements, Borrower requests and asset status reports) that the Master Servicer delivers
to the related Directing Holder and copies of any other notice, information or report that it is required to provide to the Directing
Holder pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Major Decision or with respect to any “major decisions” or “major
actions” as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in
an Asset Status Report relating to such Serviced Whole Loan. Any copies to be furnished by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
may be furnished by hard copy or electronic means.


 


(g)       With
respect to each Whole Loan, if any Serviced Companion Loan becomes the subject of an “asset review” (or such analogous
term defined in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) pursuant to the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Custodian shall reasonably cooperate with the Other Asset Representations
Reviewer or any other party to the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement in connection with such asset review by providing the
Other Asset Representations Reviewer or such other requesting party with any documents reasonably requested by the Other Asset
Representations Reviewer or such other requesting party (not at its own expense or the expense of the Trust but at the expense
of the related mortgage loan seller, such Other Asset Representations Reviewer or such other requesting party


 






    -323-


     


    

 


to the Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement), but only to the extent that (i) Other Asset Representations Reviewer or such other requesting party has
not been able to obtain such documents from the related mortgage loan seller or any party to the related Other Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, and (ii) such documents are in the possession of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian,
as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian
(i) shall have any further obligations with respect to any such asset review nor shall any such party be bound by the results of
any such asset review, or (ii) shall be obligated to provide such documents if providing such documents, in its reasonable determination,
would be a violation of this Agreement or any related Intercreditor Agreement.


 


(h)       To
the extent that the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement or Intercreditor Agreement relating to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan permits
the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan to terminate the related Other Servicer or Other Special Servicer or appoint
a sub-servicer or replacement therefor, the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate
Voting Rights of all Certificates (or the Depositor with respect to any such right arising from such Other Servicer’s or
Other Special Servicer’s failure to comply with Exchange Act reporting obligations) upon five (5) Business Days’ notice,
shall, exercise the right to terminate the related Other Servicer or Other Special Servicer or appoint a sub-servicer or replacement
therefor, as applicable.


 


(i)       To
the extent of any conflict between this Agreement and any Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall
control.


 


Section
3.28     Directing Holder Contact with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. Each of
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, not more frequently than once per month, without charge, make a
knowledgeable Servicing Officer via telephone available during normal business hours to verbally answer questions from the
Directing Holder (for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) and the Operating Advisor
regarding the performance and servicing of the Mortgage Loans and/or REO Properties for which the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, is responsible.


 


Section
3.29     Controlling Class Certificateholders, the Controlling Class Representative and the Risk
Retention Consultation Party; Certain Rights and Powers of the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation
Party. (a) Each Certificateholder and Certificate Owner of a Control Eligible Certificate is hereby deemed to have agreed
by virtue of its purchase of such Certificate (or beneficial ownership interest in such Certificate) to provide its name and
address to the Certificate Registrar and to notify the Certificate Registrar of the transfer of any Control Eligible
Certificate (or the beneficial ownership of any Control Eligible Certificate), the selection of a Controlling Class
Representative or the resignation or removal thereof. Any such Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner) or its designee at
any time appointed Controlling Class Representative is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Control
Eligible Certificate (or the beneficial ownership interest in a Control Eligible Certificate) to notify the
Certificate Registrar when such Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner) or designee is appointed Controlling Class
Representative and when it is removed or resigns. Upon receipt of such notice, the Certificate Registrar shall notify the
Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Asset
Representations


 






    -324-


     


    

 


Reviewer, the Trustee, each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder of the identity of the Controlling Class
Representative, any resignation or removal thereof and/or any new Holder or Certificate Owner of a Control Eligible
Certificate.


 


On the Closing Date,
the initial Controlling Class Representative shall execute a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1G to
this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of the existing Controlling Class Representative, any successor Controlling Class
Representative shall also execute and deliver a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1G to this Agreement
to the parties to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new Controlling Class Representative.


 


Upon the resignation
or removal of any existing Risk Retention Consultation Party, any successor Risk Retention Consultation Party shall execute and
deliver a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1H to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new
Risk Retention Consultation Party. The parties hereto shall be entitled to assume that the Risk Retention Consultation Party hasn’t
changed absent such notice.


 


In addition, upon the
request of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or, for
so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder, the Certificate Registrar shall
promptly (but no later than five (5) Business Days after such request) provide to the requesting party the identity of the then-current
Controlling Class and a list of the Holders of Certificates of the Controlling Class. However, if any Certificate of the Controlling
Class is a Global Certificate, then the Certificate Administrator shall promptly (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days
following such request) request from the Depository, with the assistance of the Trustee, the list of Depository Participants for
the Controlling Class and make reasonable efforts to obtain a list of Certificate Owners from such Depository Participants, and
the Certificate Administrator shall provide such list of Depository Participants and such list of Certificate Owners (to the extent
the Certificate Administrator obtains such list of Certificate Owners), to the requesting party promptly upon receipt. The Certificate
Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the list of Depository Participants for the Controlling Class provided
by the Depository and the list of Certificate Owners provided by any Depository Participant and shall not have any liability for
such reliance; provided that, if any Certificate of the Controlling Class is a Global Certificate and the Certificate Administrator
has actual knowledge of the identity of the related Certificate Owners, then the Certificate Administrator shall include such Certificate
Owner in the list provided to any requesting party pursuant to first sentence of this paragraph. The Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Directing Holder shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such information
so provided. Any expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such information shall be at the expense of the requesting party,
except that if (i) such expenses arise in connection with an event as to which the Directing Holder (or Controlling Class Representative)
has review, consent or consultation rights with respect to an action taken by, or report prepared by, the requesting party pursuant
to this Agreement or the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement or in connection with a request made by the Operating Advisor
in connection with its obligation under this Agreement to deliver a copy of the Operating Advisor Annual Report to the Controlling
Class Representative and (ii) the requesting party has not been notified of the identity of the Directing Holder (or Controlling
Class Representative) or reasonably believes that the identity of


 






    -325-


     


    

 


the Directing Holder (or Controlling Class Representative) has
changed, then such expenses shall be at the expense of the Trust.


 


To the extent the Master
Servicer has actual knowledge of any change in the identity of a Holder (or Certificate Owners) of the Controlling Class, then
the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Special Servicer thereof, who may rely conclusively on such notice from the Master Servicer.


 


(b)       The
initial Controlling Class Representative on the Closing Date shall be Eightfold Real Estate Capital, L.P. The Certificate Registrar
shall be entitled to assume Eightfold Real Estate Capital, L.P., or any subsequent Controlling Class Representative selected in
accordance with this Agreement and notified to the Certificate Registrar thereof in writing, is the Controlling Class Representative
appointed by the Holder (or Certificate Owner) of each Class of Control Eligible Certificates, until the Certificate Registrar
receives (i) written notice of a replacement Controlling Class Representative from a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders
by Certificate Balance, (ii) written notice from a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders, by Certificate Balance,
that a Controlling Class Representative is no longer designated, (iii) written notice from a Controlling Class Representative of
the resignation of such Controlling Class Representative, or (iv) written notice that the Holder (or Certificate Owner) of a majority
of the applicable Class of Control Eligible Certificates is no longer the Holder (or Certificate Owner) of a majority of the applicable
Class of Control Eligible Certificates due to a transfer of those Certificates (or a beneficial ownership interest in those Certificates).
Upon the resignation of a Controlling Class Representative, the Certificate Administrator shall request the Controlling Class Certificateholders
to select a new Controlling Class Representative.


 


In the event either (y)
the Certificate Registrar receives notice identified in any of clause (ii) through (iv) of the immediately preceding paragraph
and no successor Controlling Class Representative is then identified to the Certificate Registrar or (z) a party to this Agreement
requests from the Certificate Administrator the identity of the Controlling Class Representative and such identity is not known
to the Certificate Administrator, then the Certificate Administrator shall promptly deliver a notice of such event (the “Initial
Notice”) to all the Certificateholders via the Depository (and a copy of such Initial Notice shall be simultaneously
sent to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor), which notice shall include a
request that the Controlling Class Certificateholder that believes it may own the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the
Controlling Class represent in writing to the Certificate Administrator that it owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance
of the Controlling Class (with evidence of its ownership) and provide its contact information. Upon receipt of such written representation
(and any subsequent written representation), the Certificate Administrator shall deliver a notice (the “Subsequent Notice”)
to all the Certificateholders via the Depository of such representation (and a copy of such Subsequent Notice shall be simultaneously
sent to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor) and so long as another party
holding an equal or larger aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class does not provide a written representation within
thirty (30) days from the date of delivery of the latest Subsequent Notice, the party making the original assertion shall become
the Controlling Class Certificateholder until


 






    -326-


     


    

 


replaced by another party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Controlling Class Certificateholder(s) providing notice that it (or they) are the Holders of a majority of the Controlling
Class Certificateholders, by Certificate Balance, shall have the right to select the Controlling Class Representative at any time
without regard to such 30-day period, and a Controlling Class Representative selected by the Holders of a majority of the Controlling
Class Certificateholders, by Certificate Balance, shall be recognized as such immediately upon being selected in accordance with
this Agreement whether or not such 30-day period has expired.


 


In the event that a Controlling
Class Representative is selected pursuant to this Section 3.29(b) or there is deemed to be no Controlling Class Representative
pursuant to this (b), the Certificate Registrar shall notify the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate
Administrator, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee of the identity of the
new Controlling Class Representative or the absence of a Controlling Class Representative, as applicable.


 


At any time more than
50% of the Percentage Interest of the Controlling Class Certificateholders direct the Certificate Administrator in writing to hold
an election for a Controlling Class Representative, the Certificate Administrator shall hold such election as soon as practicable
at the expense of such requesting Certificateholders.


 


(c)       The
Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee, Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to request that
the Certificate Administrator provide, and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly (but no later than five (5) Business Days
after such request) provide (i) for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the identity of
the Controlling Class Representative, including names and contact information and, to the extent reasonably available, a list of
Controlling Class Certificateholders and (ii) confirmation as to whether a Control Termination Event, Consultation Termination
Event or Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred in the 12 months preceding any such request or any other period specified
in such request. In addition to the foregoing, (i) within two (2) Business Days of receiving notice of the selection of a new Controlling
Class Representative or Risk Retention Consultation Party or the existence of a new Controlling Class Certificateholder or (ii)
within ten (10) days of the commencement or cessation of any Consultation Termination Event, Control Termination Event or Operating
Advisor Consultation Event, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer and post notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Any expenses
incurred in connection with obtaining such information shall be at the expense of the requesting party, except that if (i) such
expenses arise in connection with an event as to which the Directing Holder (or Controlling Class Representative) has review, consent
or consultation rights with respect to an action taken by, or report prepared by, the requesting party pursuant to this Agreement
or the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement or in connection with a request made by the Operating Advisor in connection
with its obligation under this Agreement to deliver a copy of the Operating Advisor Annual Report to the Controlling Class Representative
and (ii) the requesting party has not been notified of the identity of the Directing Holder (or Controlling Class Representative)
or reasonably believes that the identity of the Directing Holder (or


 






    -327-


     


    

 


Controlling Class Representative) has changed, then such expenses
shall be at the expense of the Trust.


 


The Special Servicer,
the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and
the Trustee shall be entitled to assume Eightfold Real Estate Capital, L.P. is the Controlling Class Representative appointed by
the Holder (or Certificate Owner) of each Class of Control Eligible Certificates until such party receives notice to the contrary.
At any time that a party to this Agreement receives notice of the selection of a Controlling Class Representative from the Certificate
Registrar, the Certificate Administrator or a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders, by Certificate Balance, then
such party to this Agreement shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of the Controlling
Class Certificateholder and the Controlling Class Representative. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to obtain the consent
of or consult with any entity appointed as a successor Controlling Class Representative until the Special Servicer receives written
notice of such successor Controlling Class Representative’s identity and contact information.


 


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


 


(e)       Each
Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Directing Holder may have special
relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates or Companion Loan Noteholders;
(ii) the Directing Holder may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class (or, in the case of a Whole Loan,
in the interests of one or more Companion Loan Noteholders); (iii) the Directing Holder does not have any liability or duties to
the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Controlling Class; (iv) the Directing Holder may take actions that favor
the interests of the Directing Holder or one or more Classes of the Certificates including the Holders of the Controlling Class
(or, in the case of a Whole Loan, one or more Companion Loan Noteholders) over the interests of the Holders of one or more Classes
of Certificates and other Companion Loan Noteholders; and (v) the Directing Holder shall have no liability whatsoever to any Certificateholder,
the Trust, any Companion Loan Noteholder any party hereto or any other Person (including any Borrower under a Mortgage Loan) for
having so acted as set forth in clauses (e) through (e) of this paragraph, and no Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder
may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Holder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for
having so acted.


 


Each Certificateholder
acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Risk Retention Consultation Party may have special
relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii) the Risk Retention
Consultation Party may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the VRR Interest; (iii) the Risk Retention Consultation Party
do not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates; (iv) the Risk Retention Consultation Party may
take actions that favor interests of the Holders of one or more Classes including the VRR Interest over the interests of the Holders
of one or more other Classes of Certificates; and (v) the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability whatsoever
for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action
whatsoever against the Risk Retention


 






    -328-


     


    

 


Consultation Party or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of the Risk Retention
Consultation Party for having so acted.


 


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


 


(g)       At
any time when the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates is the Controlling Class, the Holder of more than 50% of the
Controlling Class Certificates (by Certificate Balance) may waive its right to act as, or appoint a representative to act as, the
Controlling Class Representative and to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative or cause the exercise
of any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative by irrevocable written notice delivered to the Depositor, Certificate
Administrator, Certificate Registrar, Trustee, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer.
Any such waiver shall remain effective with respect to such Holder and the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates until
such time as that Certificateholder has (i) sold a majority of the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates (by Certificate
Balance) to an unaffiliated third party and (ii) certified to the Depositor, Certificate Administrator, Certificate Registrar,
Trustee, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer, that (a) the transferor retains
no direct or indirect voting rights with respect to the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates that it does not own,
(b) there is no voting agreement between the transferee and the transferor and (c) the transferor retains no direct or indirect
controlling interest in the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates. During such waiver period a Consultation Termination
Event shall be deemed to exist and the rights of the Controlling Class to appoint a Controlling Class Representative and the rights
of the Controlling Class Representative shall not be operative (notwithstanding whether a Control Termination Event or a Consultation
Termination Event is or would otherwise then be in effect). Following any transfer of more than 50% of the most senior Class of
Control Eligible Certificates, the successor Holder of more than 50% of the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates,
if the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates is the Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) shall again have the
right to act as, or appoint a representative to act as, the Controlling Class Representative without regard to any prior waiver
by the predecessor Certificateholder. The successor Certificateholder shall also have the right to irrevocably waive its right
to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative or to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative
or cause the exercise of any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative. No successor Certificateholder described above
shall have any consent rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan that became a Specially Serviced Loan prior to its acquisition
of a majority of the most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates that had not also become a Corrected Mortgage Loan prior
to such acquisition until such Mortgage Loan becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan.


 


The Directing
Holder shall not have any consent or consultation rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan determined to be a Conflicted Loan
as to either
the Directing Holder or, except in the case of a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class.
Likewise, a Risk Retention Consultation Party shall not have any consultation rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan determined
to be a Conflicted Loan as to 


 






    -329-


     


    

 


the Risk Retention Consultation Party. In the case of a Conflicted Loan relating to the Controlling
Class Representative, in respect of the servicing of any such Conflicted Loan, a Control Termination Event and Consultation Termination
Event will be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Conflicted Loan.


 


Section
3.30     Rating Agency Confirmation. (a) Notwithstanding the terms of any related Mortgage
Loan documents or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under any Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement
requires Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action, if the party (the “Requesting
Party”) attempting and/or required to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has made a
request to any Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation and, within 10 Business Days of the Rating Agency
Confirmation request being posted to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, such Rating Agency has not replied to
such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor
waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then such Requesting Party shall be required to confirm (through
direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) that
the applicable Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and, if it has not, promptly request the
related Rating Agency Confirmation again (which may also be through direct communication). The circumstances described in the
preceding sentence are referred to in this Agreement as a “RAC No-Response Scenario.” Once the Requesting
Party has sent a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation to the 17g-5 Information Provider, such Requesting Party, may, but
shall not be obligated to send such request directly to the Rating Agencies in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section
3.14.


 


If there is no response
to such Rating Agency Confirmation request within 5 Business Days of such second request in a RAC No-Response Scenario or if such
Rating Agency has responded in a manner that indicates such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement
for Rating Agency Confirmation, then (x) with respect to any condition in any Mortgage Loan document requiring such Rating Agency
Confirmation or with respect to any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than
as set forth in clause (y) below), the requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be deemed not to apply (as
if such requirement did not exist) with respect to such Rating Agency and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case
may be, may then take such action if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, confirms its original determination
(made prior to making such request) that taking the action with respect to which it requested the Rating Agency Confirmation would
still be consistent with the Servicing Standard, (y) with respect to a replacement of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer,
such condition shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) if (i) the applicable replacement master servicer
or special servicer is rated at least “CMS3” (in the case of the master servicer) or “CSS3” (in the case
of the special servicer), if Fitch is the non-responding Rating Agency, (ii) it is listed on S&P’s Select Servicer List
as a U.S. Commercial Mortgage Master Servicer or U.S. Commercial Mortgage Special Servicer, as applicable, if S&P is the non-responding
Rating Agency or (iii) KBRA has not cited servicing concerns of the replacement master servicer or special servicer, as applicable,
as the sole or a material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status”
in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other commercial


 






    -330-


     


    

 


mortgage-backed securitization transaction
serviced by the replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if KBRA is the non-responding
Rating Agency and (z) with respect to a replacement or successor to the Operating Advisor in any circumstance where a Rating Agency
Confirmation is required pursuant to the terms hereof, such condition will be deemed to be waived with respect to any non-responding
Rating Agency so long as such Rating Agency has not cited concerns regarding the replacement operating advisor as the sole or material
factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation
of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other commercial mortgage-backed securities transaction with respect
to which the replacement operating advisor acts as trust advisor or operating advisor prior to the date of determination.


 


Any Rating Agency Confirmation
request made by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement,
shall be made in writing, which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request,
and shall contain all back-up material necessary for the Rating Agency to process such request. Such written Rating Agency Confirmation
request shall be provided in electronic format to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post
such request on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement.


 


Promptly following the
Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s determination to take any action discussed in this Section 3.30(a) following
any requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation being deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist), the Master
Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide electronic written notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider of
the action taken for the particular item at such time, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such notice on the 17g-5 Information
Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement.


 


(b)       Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 3.30, for purposes of the provisions of any Loan Document relating to defeasance
(including without limitation the type of collateral acceptable for use as defeasance collateral), release or substitution of any
collateral, in the event of a RAC No-Response Scenario, any Rating Agency Confirmation requirement in the Loan Documents with respect
to which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer would have been required to make the determination described in Section 3.30(a)
(as a result of such RAC No-Response Scenario) shall be deemed not to apply regardless of any such determination by the Requesting
Party (or, if the Requesting Party is the related Borrower, the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Loans) or the Special
Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and Serviced REO Loans), as applicable); provided, that the Requesting
Party (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) shall in any event review the other conditions required under
the related Loan Documents with respect to such defeasance, release or substitution and confirm to its satisfaction in accordance
with the Servicing Standard that such conditions (other than the requirement for a Rating Agency Confirmation) have been satisfied.


 


(c)       For
all other matters or actions not specifically discussed in Section 3.30(a) above, the applicable Requesting Party shall
deliver a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency.


 






    -331-


     


    

 


(d)       Notwithstanding
the terms of the related Loan Documents, the other provisions of this Agreement or the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, with
respect to any Serviced Companion Loan as to which there exists Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any action relating to the
servicing and administration of the related Whole Loan or any related REO Property (the “Relevant Action”) requires
delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action pursuant to this Agreement, then, except as set
forth below in this paragraph, such action shall also require delivery of a Serviced Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation
as a condition precedent to such action from each related Serviced Companion Loan Rating Agency. Each Serviced Companion Loan Rating
Agency Confirmation shall be sought by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, depending on whichever such party
is seeking the corresponding Rating Agency Confirmation(s) in connection with the Relevant Action. The requirement to obtain a
Serviced Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities will be subject to, will
be permitted to be waived by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer on, and will be deemed not to apply on, the same terms
and conditions applicable to obtaining Rating Agency Confirmations, as set forth in this Agreement; provided that the Master
Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, depending on which is seeking the subject Serviced Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation,
shall forward to one or more of its counterparts (i.e., the Other Servicer or Other Special Servicer, as applicable), the Other
17g-5 Information Provider, or such other party or parties as are agreed to by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
applicable, and the applicable parties for the related Other Securitization, at the expense of the Other Securitization to the
extent not borne by the related Borrower, and in such format as the sender and recipient may reasonably agree, (i) the request
for such Serviced Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, (ii) all materials forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider under
this Agreement in connection with seeking the Rating Agency Confirmation(s) for the applicable Relevant Action at approximately
the same time that such materials are forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider and (iii) any other materials that the applicable
Serviced Companion Loan Rating Agency may reasonably request in connection with such Serviced Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation
promptly following receipt of such request from the Other Trustee.


 


The Certificate Administrator
shall, promptly following receipt of written request from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, provide to
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the contact information for the Other Servicer, the Other Special Servicer,
the Other Trustee and the Other 17g-5 Information Provider for the Other Securitization, solely to the extent in its possession.


 


Section 3.31     Appointment
and Duties of the Operating Advisor.


 


(a)       The
Operating Advisor shall review (i) as the Operating Advisor’s obligations are provided in Section 3.23(e), Section
3.31 and Section 6.07, the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan and, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the actions of the Special Servicer with respect
to Major Decisions relating to any Performing Loan; (ii) all reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons
that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website; and (iii) each Asset Status Report (after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and each Final Asset Status Report


 






    -332-


     


    

 


delivered or made available
to the Operating Advisor. The Operating Advisor shall perform its duties hereunder in accordance with the Operating Advisor Standard.


 


In addition and for the
avoidance of doubt, although the Operating Advisor may have certain consultation duties with the master servicer with respect to
certain Major Decisions processed by the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor will have no obligations or responsibility at any
time to review or assess the actions of the Master Servicer for compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor
will not be required to consider such Master Servicer actions in connection with any Operating Advisor Annual Report.


 


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


 


(c)       (i)
Based on the Operating Advisor’s review of (A) any assessment of compliance, any attestation report and other information
delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate
Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year, (B) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor
Consultation Event, with respect to any Performing Loan, any related Final Asset Status Report or Major Decision Reporting Package
and (C) after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, any Asset Status Report and any Major
Decision Reporting Package, the Operating Advisor shall (if, at any time during the prior calendar year, (i) any Serviced Mortgage
Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan or (ii) the Operating Advisor was entitled to consult with the Special Servicer with respect
to any Major Decision) deliver to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor
Annual Report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 4.02(b)) and the 17g-5 Information
Provider (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance
with Section 3.14(d)) within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of the prior calendar year, an annual report (the
“Operating Advisor Annual Report”), substantially in the form of Exhibit BB (which form may be modified
or altered as to either its organization or content by the Operating Advisor, subject to compliance of such form with the terms
and provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, provisions herein relating to Privileged Information; provided,
however, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in the Operating Advisor Annual Report contravene
any provision of this Agreement), that (A) sets forth whether the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised
in good faith, that the Special Servicer is operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance
of its duties pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, with respect to Major Decisions on Performing Loans) during the


 






    -333-


     


    

 


prior calendar year
on an Asset-Level Basis and (B) identifies (1) which, if any, standards the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith, the Special Servicer has failed to comply and (2) any material deviations from the Special Servicer’s
obligations hereunder with respect to the resolution or liquidation of any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property (other than
with respect to any REO Property related to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or any Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan); provided,
however, that in the event the Special Servicer is replaced, the Operating Advisor Annual Report shall only relate to the
entity that was acting as Special Servicer as of December 31 in the prior calendar year and is continuing in such capacity through
the date of such Operating Advisor Annual Report; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall prepare a separate
Operating Advisor Annual Report relating to each Non-Conflicted Special Servicer and any Conflicted Special Servicer Mortgage Loan(s)
serviced by such Non-Conflicted Special Servicer. In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall
not be required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviations from, the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s
obligations under this Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be immaterial.
Subject to the restrictions in this Agreement, each such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall comply with all of the confidentiality
requirements described in this Agreement regarding Privileged Information (subject to any permitted exceptions). Such Operating
Advisor Annual Report shall be delivered to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator (which shall promptly post such Operating
Advisor Annual Report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 4.02(b)) and the 17g-5
Information Provider (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s
Website in accordance with Section 3.14(d)); provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall be given an
opportunity to review the Operating Advisor Annual Report at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Operating Advisor Annual
Report’s delivery to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider. The Operating Advisor
shall have no obligation to adopt any comments to the Operating Advisor Annual Report that are provided by the Special Servicer.


 


(ii)       In
the event the Operating Advisor’s ability to perform its obligations in respect of the Operating Advisor Annual Report is
limited or prohibited due to the failure of a party hereto to timely deliver information required to be delivered to the Operating
Advisor or because such information is inaccurate or incomplete, the Operating Advisor shall set forth such limitations or prohibitions
in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from such
limitations and prohibitions. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy and completeness of
any information it is provided. If the Operating Advisor is prohibited or materially limited from obtaining Privileged Information
and such prohibition or limitation prevents the Operating Advisor from performing its duties under this Agreement, the Operating
Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from its lack of access to such Privileged Information.


 


(d)       (i)
With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, after the calculation has
been finalized (and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, prior to the utilization by the
Special Servicer) of any of the calculations related to (i) Appraisal Reduction Amounts or (ii) net present value in accordance
with Section 1.02(i), the Special Servicer shall forward such


 






    -334-


     


    

 


calculations, together with any supporting material or additional
information necessary in support thereof (including such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor to
confirm the mathematical accuracy of such calculations, but not including any Privileged Information), to the Operating Advisor
promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after preparing such calculations, and the Operating Advisor shall
promptly, but no later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of such calculations and any supporting or additional materials,
recalculate and review for accuracy and consistency with this Agreement of the mathematical calculations and the corresponding
application of the non-discretionary portion of the applicable formulas required to be utilized in connection with any such calculation.


 


(ii)       In
connection with this Section 3.31(d), in the event the Operating Advisor does not agree with the mathematical calculations
of the Appraisal Reduction Amount (as calculated by the Special Servicer) or net present value or the application of the applicable
non discretionary portions of the formula required to be utilized for such calculation, the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer
shall consult with each other in order to resolve any material inaccuracy in the mathematical calculations or the application of
the non-discretionary portions of the related formula in arriving at those mathematical calculations or any disagreement within
five (5) Business Days of delivery of such calculations. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Special Servicer and provide
any information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer necessary for the calculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount that
is in the Master Servicer’s possession or reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer. In the event the Operating Advisor
and the Special Servicer are not able to resolve such inaccuracies or disagreement prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day
period, the Operating Advisor shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such disagreement and the Certificate Administrator
shall examine the calculations and supporting materials provided by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer and determine
which calculation is to apply (and shall provide prompt written notice of such determination to the Operating Advisor and the Special
Servicer). In making such determination, the Certificate Administrator may hire an independent third party to assist with any such
calculation at the expense of the Trust and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such third party’s determination (provided
such third party has been selected with reasonable care by the Certificate Administrator).


 


(e)       Notwithstanding
the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s
review will be limited to an after-the-action review of any assessment of compliance report, any attestation report, any Major
Decision Reporting Package and/or Asset Status Reports (in each case, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating
Advisor Consultation Event), any Final Asset Status Report and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special
Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior
calendar year (together with any additional information and material reviewed by the Operating Advisor), and, therefore, it shall
have no involvement with respect to collateral substitutions, assignments, workouts, modifications, consents, waivers, insurance
policies, mortgagor substitutions, lease changes, additional borrower debt, defeasances, property management changes, releases
from escrow, assumptions or other similar actions that the Special Servicer may perform under this Agreement and will have no obligations
at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. In addition, with respect to the Operating


 






    -335-


     


    

 


Advisor’s review of
net present value calculations as required in Section 3.26(d) above, the Operating Advisor’s recalculation shall not
take into account the reasonableness of Special Servicer’s property and borrower performance assumptions or other similar
discretionary portions of the net present value calculation.


 


(f)       Subject
to the requirements of confidentiality imposed on the Operating Advisor herein (including without limitation in respect of Privileged
Information), the Operating Advisor shall respond to Inquiries proposed by Privileged Persons from time to time in accordance with
the terms of Section 4.02(c) of this Agreement.


 


(g)       The
Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep all information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information” confidential
and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and either the Directing Holder (with respect to any Mortgage
Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan and any applicable Conflicted Loan and for so long as no Consultation Termination Event
is continuing) or the Risk Retention Consultation Party (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan
and any applicable Conflicted Loan), as applicable, disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders
other than the Controlling Class Representative), other than (i) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement, to the other
parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information, (ii) pursuant to a Privileged
Information Exception or (iii) where necessary to support specific findings or conclusions concerning allegations of deviations
from the Servicing Standard (A) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report or (B) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating
Advisor to replace the Special Servicer. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Operating Advisor
with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person
without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer, the Controlling Class Representative and the Directing Holder other
than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to
share Privileged Information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor that agree in writing to be bound
by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor. Subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement
related to Privileged Information, the Operating Advisor agrees that it shall use information received from the Special Servicer
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement solely for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder. In addition
and for the avoidance of doubt, while the Operating Advisor may serve in a similar capacity with respect to other securitizations
that involve the same parties or borrower involved in this securitization, the knowledge of the employees performing operating
advisor functions for such other securitizations shall not be imputed to employees of the Operating Advisor involved in this securitization.


 


(h)       On
each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Operating Advisor shall be paid the applicable Operating Advisor Fee from amounts on
deposit in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement, as applicable. In addition, the Operating
Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable to the Operating Advisor with respect to each Major Decision for which the Operating Advisor
has consultation rights. Each of the Operating Advisor Fee and the Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable from funds
on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.06 of this Agreement, but with respect to the Operating


 






    -336-


     


    

 


Advisor
Consulting Fee only to the extent such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee is actually received from the related Borrower. When the
Operating Advisor has consultation rights with respect to a Major Decision under this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer processing the Major Decision shall use efforts to collect the applicable Operating Advisor Consulting Fee from the related
Borrower in connection with such Major Decision that are consistent with the efforts that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as applicable, would use to collect any borrower-paid fees not specified in the related loan documents owed to it in accordance
with the Servicing Standard, but only to the extent not prohibited by the related Loan Documents. The Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, as applicable, may waive or reduce the amount of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee payable by the related Borrower
if it determines that such full or partial waiver is in accordance with the Servicing Standard, but in no event shall the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer take any enforcement action with respect to the collection of such Operating Advisor Consulting
Fee other than requests for collection; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall
consult on a non-binding basis with the Operating Advisor prior to any such waiver or reduction.


 


(i)       The
Operating Advisor may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors to the extent such agents or subcontractors satisfy clauses
(c), (d) and (f) of the definition of “Eligible Operating Advisor” and so long as the related agreements or arrangements
with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence,
the Operating Advisor shall remain obligated and primarily liable for any actions required to be performed hereunder in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by
virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor
to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Operating Advisor alone were performing its obligations under
this Agreement.


 


Section 3.32     Delivery
of Conflicted Information to the Certificate Administrator.


 


(a)       Any
Conflicted Information that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor identifies and delivers to the Certificate
Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator
via e-mail (or such other electronic means as is mutually acceptable to the parties) in one or more separate files labeled “Conflicted
Information” followed by the applicable loan name and loan file to cmbsexcludedinformation@wellsfargo.com. For the avoidance
of doubt, any information that is not appropriately labeled and delivered in accordance with this Section 3.32 shall not
be separately posted as Conflicted Information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and any information appropriately
labeled and delivered to the Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Section shall be posted on the Certificate Administrator’s
Website under the “Conflicted Information” section, as provided under Section 4.02(b). When so posted, Conflicted
Controlling Class Holders shall be prohibited from the access of Conflicted Information with respect to any Conflicted Controlling
Class Mortgage Loans on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (unless loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the
Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Conflicted Controlling
Class Mortgage Loan(s)). None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligations
to separately label and deliver any Conflicted Information in


 






    -337-


     


    

 


accordance with this Section 3.32 until such party has received notice
with respect to the related Conflicted Controlling Class Mortgage Loan in the form of Exhibit L-1E to this Agreement. Nothing
set forth in this Agreement shall prohibit the Directing Holder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder from receiving, requesting
or reviewing any Conflicted Information relating to any Conflicted Controlling Class Mortgage Loan with respect to which the Directing
Holder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder is not a Borrower Party and, if such Conflicted Information is not available
on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, such Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder
that is not a Borrower Party with respect to the related Conflicted Controlling Class Mortgage Loan shall be permitted to obtain
such information upon reasonable request in accordance with Section 3.14(c) and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer,
as applicable, may require and rely on such certifications prior to releasing any such information.


 


Section 3.33     Certain
Matters with Respect to Joint Mortgage Loans.


 


(a)       If
a Mortgage Loan Seller of a Joint Mortgage Loan (a “Repurchasing Seller”) repurchases, or substitutes for, the
Note(s) (a “Repurchased Note”) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, but the other
Mortgage Loan Seller of such Joint Mortgage Loan does not repurchase, or substitute for, the Note(s) related to such Joint Mortgage
Loan that it sold to the Depositor, the provisions of this Section 3.33 shall apply prior to the adoption, pursuant to Section
12.08, of any amendment to this Agreement that provides otherwise. Each Mortgage Loan Seller of a Joint Mortgage Loan has agreed
pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that the terms set forth in this Section 3.33 with
respect to the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan shall apply if one or more of the Notes related to such
Joint Mortgage Loan has been repurchased or, by way of substitution, otherwise removed from the Trust and at least one other Note
related to such Joint Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust until such time as all of the Notes related to such Joint Mortgage
Loan are no longer included in the Trust. For purposes of this Section 3.33 and Section 12.08 only, “Note”
shall mean with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each original promissory note that collectively represents the Note with respect
to such Joint Mortgage Loan and shall not be a collective reference to such promissory notes.


 


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


 


(i)       All
of the Notes with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority
or preference over any other portion of the other Notes or security therefor. Payments from the related Borrower (including, without
limitation, any late fees) or any other amounts received with respect to each Note shall be collected as provided in this Agreement
by the Master Servicer and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Note based on its
respective Repurchased Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.33(b)(ii). Payments or any other amounts received with
respect to the related Repurchased Note shall be held for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Seller and remitted (net of
its pro rata share of any Master Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees, Operating Advisor Fees and any other amounts due
to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) to the


 






    -338-


     


    

 


applicable Repurchasing Seller or its designee by the Master Servicer on
each Distribution Date pursuant to instructions provided by the applicable Repurchasing Seller and deposited and applied in accordance
with this Agreement, subject to (ii). If any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.33 applies becomes REO Loans,
payments or any other amounts received with respect to any such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be collected and shall be applied upon
receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Note based on its respective Repurchased Percentage Interest, subject to
Section 3.33(b)(ii). Any Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan subject to this
Section 3.33 shall be allocated to each related Note pro rata based upon the respective Stated Principal Balances
thereof.


 


(ii)       If
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives an aggregate payment of less than the aggregate amount due
under any such Joint Mortgage Loan at any particular time, the applicable Repurchasing Seller shall receive from the Master Servicer
an amount equal to such Repurchasing Seller’s Repurchased Percentage Interest of such payment. All expenses, losses and shortfalls
relating solely to such Joint Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, losses of principal or interest, Nonrecoverable Advances,
interest on Advances, Operating Advisor expenses, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees (including any such
fees related to the applicable Notes), shall be allocated between the holders of the related Notes pro rata based upon the
respective Stated Principal Balances thereof. In no event shall any costs, expenses, fees or any other amounts related to any Mortgage
Loan or Joint Mortgage Loan other than the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan be deducted from payments or any other amounts received
with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and payable to the applicable Repurchasing Seller. For purposes of (i), this (ii)
and Section 3.33(g), “Repurchased Percentage Interest” shall mean the percentage interest of the applicable
Mortgage Loan Seller in the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan.


 


(iii)       A
Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.33 applies shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing
Seller and the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in accordance with the Servicing Standard
and in accordance with the provisions herein as if (A) such Joint Mortgage Loan were a Serviced Loan Combination, (B) the related
Note(s) not repurchased were (1) a Mortgage Loan serviced pursuant to this Agreement and (2) the only Mortgage Loan that is part
of such Joint Mortgage Loan, and (C) the related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Companion Loan. No Repurchasing Seller shall
be permitted to terminate the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor as servicer, special servicer or operating
advisor, respectively, of the related Repurchased Note. All rights of the mortgagee under each such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be
exercised by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust to the extent of its interest therein and the
applicable Repurchasing Seller in accordance with this Agreement.


 


(iv)       The
related Repurchasing Seller shall be treated hereunder as if it were a Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder on a pari passu
basis. Funds collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and applied to the applicable Notes shall
be deposited and disbursed in accordance with the provisions hereof relating to Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders. Compensation
shall be paid to the Master


 






    -339-


     


    

 


Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor with respect to each Repurchased Note as provided
in this Agreement as if each such Note were a Serviced Companion Loan. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligation to make P&I Advances with respect
to any Repurchased Note or, if no related Note is part of the Trust, an Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note. Except as
otherwise specified herein, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have no reporting requirement with respect to any
Repurchased Note other than to deliver to the related Repurchasing Seller any document as is required to be delivered to a Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholder hereunder.


 


(c)       If
any non-repurchased Note relating to a Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.33 applies is considered a Specially
Serviced Loan, then any related Repurchased Note shall also be a Specially Serviced Loan under this Agreement. The Special Servicer
shall cause such related Repurchased Note to be specially serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Seller in accordance
with the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and shall be entitled to any Special Servicing Fee, Workout Fee or Liquidation
Fee payable to the Special Servicer under this Agreement as with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan.


 


(d)       If
(A) the Master Servicer shall pay any amount to any Repurchasing Seller pursuant to the terms hereof in the belief or expectation
that a related payment has been made or will be received or collected in connection with either or both of the applicable Notes
and (B) such related payment is not received or collected by the Master Servicer, then the applicable Repurchasing Seller shall
promptly on demand by the Master Servicer return such amount to the Master Servicer. If the Master Servicer determines at any time
that any amount received or collected by the Master Servicer in respect of any Joint Mortgage Loans to which this Section 3.33
applies must be returned to the related Borrower or paid to any other person or entity pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof
to the related Repurchasing Seller, and such Repurchasing Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer repay (which obligation
shall survive the termination of this Agreement) any portion thereof that the Master Servicer shall have distributed to such Repurchasing
Seller, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Master Servicer may pay to the related Borrower or such other
person or entity with respect thereto.


 


(e)       Subject
to this Agreement (including, without limitation, the consent and consultation rights of the Controlling Class Representative and
any consultation rights of the Operating Advisor), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the
holders of any of the Repurchased Notes, shall have the exclusive right and obligation to (i) administer, service and make all
decisions and determinations regarding the related Joint Mortgage Loan and (ii) enforce the applicable Loan Documents as provided
hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,
may agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive interest on and principal of, capitalize interest on,
permit the release, addition or substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of the related Borrower on or any
guarantor of any Joint Mortgage Loan it is required to service and administer as contemplated by this Section 3.33,


 






    -340-


     


    

 


without
the consent of the related Repurchasing Seller, subject, however, to the terms of this Agreement as they pertain to a Serviced
Companion Loan.


 


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


 


(g)       If
the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made an Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note which would otherwise
be reimbursable to such advancing party under this Agreement, and such Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the
applicable Repurchasing Seller shall reimburse the Trust in an amount equal to such Repurchasing Seller’s Repurchased Percentage
Interest of such Nonrecoverable Advance with interest thereon; provided, if the Repurchasing Seller does not reimburse the
Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer shall reimburse the Trustee, itself and/or
the Special Servicer, as applicable, for such amounts from the Collection Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable
Repurchasing Seller shall not be obligated to reimburse the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (and amounts due
to the applicable Repurchasing Seller shall not be offset) for Advances or interest thereon or any amounts related to any Mortgage
Loans or any other Joint Mortgage Loan other than such amounts relating to the applicable Repurchased Note. To the extent that
the applicable Repurchasing Seller reimburses any such Nonrecoverable Advances and such amounts are subsequently recovered, the
applicable Repurchasing Seller shall receive a reimbursement from such recovery based on its Repurchased Percentage Interest of
such recovery. This reimbursement right shall not limit the Trustee’s, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s
rights to reimbursement under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the total liability of
each Repurchasing Seller shall not exceed an amount equal to its Repurchased Percentage Interest of the amount to be reimbursed.


 


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


 


(i)       The
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, in connection with their servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement,
exercise efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to execute and deliver, on behalf of each Repurchasing Seller as a holder
of a pari passu interest in the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan, any and all financing statements, continuation statements
and other documents and instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage or other security document related to
the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, any and all modifications, waivers,
amendments or consents to or with respect to the related Joint Mortgage Loan documents, and any and all instruments of satisfaction
or cancellation, or of full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments with respect to the related Repurchased
Note or related Repurchased Notes and the related Mortgaged Property all in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this
Agreement. Each Repurchasing Seller agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer
any powers of attorney or other


 






    -341-


     


    

 


documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement related to the applicable Joint Mortgage
Loan; provided, however, that such Repurchasing Seller shall not be liable, and shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as applicable, for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; and further provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, without
the written consent of the applicable Repurchasing Seller, shall not initiate any action in the name of such Repurchasing Seller
without indicating its representative capacity or take any action with the intent to cause and that actually causes, such Repurchasing
Seller to be registered to do business in any state.


 


(j)       Pursuant
to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the applicable Repurchasing Seller is required to deliver to the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Loan Documents related to the applicable Repurchased Note, any requests for release

Note(s) or the Mortgage(s) or otherwise available at law or equity with respect to the related Repurchased Note.


 


Section
3.34     Resignation Upon Prohibited Risk Retention Affiliation.
        Under the Risk Retention Rule, any Third-Party Purchaser is prohibited from

Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as
applicable, obtaining actual knowledge that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable,
is or has become Risk Retention Affiliated with or a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third-Party Purchaser (in such case, an
“Impermissible TPP Affiliate”), (ii) the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee
receiving written notice by any other party to this Agreement, the Third-Party Purchaser, any Mortgage Loan Seller,
any Underwriter or any Initial Purchaser that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as
applicable, is or has become an Impermissible TPP Affiliate, or (iii) the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations
Reviewer obtaining actual knowledge that it is or has become a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third -y Purchaser or any

provided, however, if the affiliation causing an Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate is the result of the Third-Party
Purchaser acquiring an interest in such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate or an affiliate of such Impermissible Risk
Retention Affiliate, then such costs and expenses will be an expense of the Issuing Entity.

tenth, when the Certificate Balances of all Classes of Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests have been reduced to zero
and after payment in full of all unpaid expenses of the Trust, any remaining amounts to the Class R Certificates.


 


On each Distribution
Date, the Certificate Administrator shall apply the then applicable Class V2 Percentage of the VRR Available Funds for such Distribution
Date to make


 






    -348-


     


    

 


distributions to the Holders of the Class V2 Certificates for the following purposes and in the following order of
priority:


 


(i)          First,
distributions of interest on the Class V2 Certificates, up to an amount equal to the then applicable Class V2 Percentage of the
VRR Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date;


 


(ii)         Second,
distributions in reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class V2 Certificates, up to an amount equal to the then applicable
Class V2 Percentage of the VRR Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date, until the outstanding Certificate Balance
of the Class V2 Certificates has been reduced to zero; and


 


(iii)        Third,
reimbursements of prior write-offs of the Certificate Balance of the Class V2 Certificates, up to an amount equal to the unreimbursed
VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to the Class V2 Certificates;


 


provided that, with respect to any
Distribution Date, to the extent that the then applicable Class V2 Percentage of the VRR Available Funds for such Distribution
Date exceeds the distributions to the Holders of the Class V2 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the immediately
preceding clauses (i) through (iii), the Certificate Administrator shall distribute such excess to the Holders of
the Class V2 Certificates.


 


On each Distribution
Date, the Certificate Administrator shall apply the then applicable Class V1 Percentage of the VRR Available Funds for such Distribution
Date to make the distributions provided for in the next sentence to the Holders of the Class V Certificates in the same order and
priority as similar distributions (i.e., distributions of interest, principal and reimbursements of unreimbursed Realized Losses)
are made to the Holders of the Related Regular Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01(b); and provided, further,
that no distributions shall be made with respect to any Class of Class V1 Certificates on any Distribution Date pursuant to the
next sentence unless and until the Holders of each and every other Class of Class V1 Certificates with a higher payment priority
have received all distributions to which they are entitled pursuant to the next sentence. On each Distribution Date, subject to
the foregoing payment priorities and the remaining amount of the then applicable Class V1 Percentage of the VRR Available Funds
for such Distribution Date, the Holders of each Class of Class V1 Certificates shall be entitled to receive the following distributions
in the following order:


 


(i)       First,
distributions of interest on the subject Class of Class V1 Certificates, up to an amount equal to the then applicable Class V1
Percentage of the VRR Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date (such VRR Interest Distribution Amount to be determined,
however, based solely on those distributions referenced in clause (B) of the definition thereof that are in respect of the
Related Regular Certificates and without regard to any other distributions referenced in clause (B) of such definition that
are in respect of any other Regular Certificates);


 


(ii)       Second,
distributions in reduction of the Certificate Balance of the subject Class of Class V1 Certificates, up to an amount equal to the
then applicable Class V1 Percentage of the VRR Principal Distribution Amount, until the outstanding Certificate Balance of the
subject Class of Class V1 Certificates has been reduced to zero (such VRR


 






    -349-


     


    

 


Principal Distribution Amount to be determined, however,
based solely on those distributions referenced in clause (B) of the definition thereof that are in respect of the Related
Regular Certificates and without regard to any other distributions referenced in clause (B) of such definition that are
in respect of any other Regular Certificates); and


 


(iii)       Third,
reimbursements of prior write-offs of the Certificate Balance of the subject Class of Class V1 Certificates, up to an amount equal
to the unreimbursed VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to the subject Class of Class V1 Certificates;


 


provided that, with respect to any
Distribution Date, to the extent that the then applicable Class V1 Percentage of the VRR Available Funds for such Distribution
Date exceeds the distributions to the Holders of all Classes of the Class V1 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to
the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii), the Certificate Administrator shall distribute such excess to
the Holders of all Classes of the Class V1 Certificates, pro rata, based on their initial Certificate Balances.


 


For avoidance of doubt,
because the distributions with respect to the Class V2 Certificates, on the one hand, and the Class V1 Certificates (collectively),
on the other hand, on any Distribution Date pursuant to the preceding two paragraphs are based on proportionate shares of the Aggregate
Available Funds and corresponding distributions actually made on the Regular Certificates, the Holders of the Class V1 Certificates
shall receive the same aggregate distributions on each Distribution Date (with such aggregate distributions to be allocable as
between distributions of interest, distributions in reduction of Certificate Balance and reimbursements (with interest) of prior
write-offs of Certificate Balance in the same proportions) as would be the case if such Holders, in the aggregate, instead held
the corresponding portion of the Class V2 Certificates that are exchangeable for such Class V1 Certificates pursuant to Section
5.09.


 


(d)       On
each Distribution Date, following the distribution from the Lower-Tier Distribution Account in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular
Interests pursuant to Section 4.01(a) of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall make distributions of any Prepayment
Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges received in the related Collection Period from amounts deposited in the Upper-Tier Distribution
Account pursuant to Section 3.05(f) of this Agreement, as follows:


 


Prepayment Premiums and
Yield Maintenance Charges received with respect to the Mortgage Loans that represent the Non-VRR Interest Percentage of such Prepayment
Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges (such portion of any Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges, the “Non-VRR
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges”) shall be distributed to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class
A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates in an amount equal to, in the case of each such
Class, the product of (a) a fraction, not greater than one, the numerator of which is the amount distributed as principal to such
Class on such Distribution Date, and whose denominator is the total amount distributed as principal to the Class A-1, Class A-2,
Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F-RR and Class G-RR Certificates
on such Distribution Date, (b) the Base Interest Fraction for the related Principal Prepayment and such Class of Certificates and
(c) the portion of such Non-VRR Prepayment


 






    -350-


     


    

 


Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges collected on such Principal Prepayment during
the related Collection Period.


 


Any Yield Maintenance
Charges or Prepayment Premiums collected during the related Collection Period remaining after such distributions described in the
preceding paragraph (the “IO Group YM Distribution Amount”) shall be allocated and distributed in the following
manner:


 


(i)        to
the Class X-A Certificates, in an amount equal to the product of (a) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate amount
of principal distributed on the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5 and Class A-M Certificates on
such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the total Principal Distribution amount in respect of such Distribution
Date, multiplied by (b) the IO Group YM Distribution Amount;


 


(ii)       to
the Class X-B Certificates, in an amount equal to the product of (a) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of principal
distributed on the Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the total Principal Distribution
Amount in respect of such Distribution Date, multiplied by (b), the IO Group YM Distribution Amount; and


 


(iii)      to
the Class X-D Certificates, the IO Group YM Distribution Amount remaining after such distribution to the holders of the Class X-A
and Class X-B Certificates as described in (i) and (ii) above;


 


On each Distribution
Date, amounts on deposit in the Upper-Tier Distribution Account that represent the VRR Interest Percentage of such Prepayment Premiums
and Yield Maintenance Charges (such portion of any Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges, the “VRR Retained
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges”) collected on the Mortgage Loans during the related Collection Period
shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the Holders of the Class V2 Certificates and the respective Classes of
Class V1 Certificates, on a pro rata and pari passu basis, as follows:


 


(i)        to
the Holders of the Class V2 Certificates, in an amount equal to the product of (A) the then applicable Class V2 Percentage, multiplied
by (B) the amount of such VRR Retained Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges; and


 


(ii)       to
the Holders of each Class of Class V1 Certificates, in an amount equal to the product of (A) the then applicable Class V1 Percentage,
multiplied by (B) the VRR Allocation Percentage, multiplied by (C) the total distributions of the corresponding Non-VRR Prepayment
Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges made on the Related Regular Certificates on such Distribution Date.


 


On each Distribution
Date, any portion of Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges that are to be distributed to the Holders of the Class V1
Certificates and/or the Class V2 Certificates shall, for federal income tax purposes, be deemed to have first been transferred
to the Grantor Trust in respect of the related Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests.


 






    -351-


     


    

 


(e)       On
each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Certificate Administrator shall determine if the Available Funds for such Distribution
Date (determined without regard to the inclusion of any Gain-on-Sale Proceeds therein) would be sufficient to pay all interest
and principal due and owing to reimburse (with interest thereon) all previously allocated Realized Losses reimbursable to the Holders
of the Regular Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(b). If the Certificate Administrator determines
that such Available Funds (as so determined) would not be sufficient to make such payments and reimbursements, then the Certificate
Administrator shall withdraw from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (or sub-account thereof) and shall deposit in the Lower-Tier
REMIC Distribution Account on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date an amount (to be included in the Aggregate Available
Funds for the related Distribution Date) equal to the lesser of (i) the amounts then on deposit in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account
and (ii) the sum of (A) the amount of the applicable insufficiency and (B) the VRR Allocation Percentage of the amount described
in the immediately preceding clause (A).


 


Any amounts remaining
in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account after such distributions on any Distribution Date that (A) are allocable to the Mortgage Loans
shall be held and maintained in such account and applied to offset future Realized Losses and VRR Realized Losses, as applicable,
and Additional Trust Fund Expenses from time to time; and (B) are allocable to the Serviced Companion Loans, shall be remitted
within one Business Day after each such Distribution Date by the Certificate Administrator to the Master Servicer (which shall
remit to the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders in accordance with Section 3.05(h)).


 


On any Distribution Date,
amounts held in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (other than amounts allocable to any related Serviced Companion Loan pursuant
to the terms of any related Intercreditor Agreement) that exceed amounts reasonably required (as determined by the Certificate
Administrator) to offset future Realized Losses and VRR Realized Losses, as applicable, and Additional Trust Fund Expenses, shall
be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LTR Interest) and, upon termination of the Trust
Fund, any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (other than amounts allocable to any related Serviced Companion
Loan pursuant to the terms of any related Intercreditor Agreement) shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the
Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LTR Interest). Amounts paid with respect to the Mortgage Loans from the Gain-on-Sale
Reserve Account pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) shall first be deemed to have been distributed to the Lower-Tier
Regular Interests in reimbursement of Realized Losses and VRR Realized Losses, as applicable, and Additional Trust Fund Expenses
previously allocated thereto in the same manner as provided in Section 4.01(a) of this Agreement. Amounts paid from the
Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account will not reduce the Certificate Balances of any Class of Regular Certificates, Class of Exchangeable
Certificates or the Class S Certificates receiving such distributions.


 


(f)       On
each Distribution Date, immediately following the distributions to be made on such date pursuant to Section 4.01(b), the
Certificate Administrator shall calculate the amount, if any, of the Realized Loss and VRR Realized Loss for such Distribution
Date. Any allocation of Realized Losses to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates and VRR Realized Losses to the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interest shall be made by reducing the Certificate Balance thereof by the amount so allocated. The allocation
of Realized Losses and VRR


 






    -352-


     


    

 


Realized Losses shall constitute allocations of losses and other shortfalls experienced by the Trust
Fund.


 


The Certificate Balances
of each Class of Principal Balance Certificates will be reduced without distribution on any Distribution Date as a write-off to
the extent of any Realized Losses allocated to such Class of Certificates with respect to such date. Any such write-offs will be
applied to the Classes of Principal Balance Certificates in the following order, in each case until the Certificate Balance of
such Class is reduced to zero: first, to the Class G-RR Certificates; second, to the Class F-RR Certificates; third,
to the Class E Certificates; fourth, to the Class D Certificates; fifth, to the Class C Certificates; sixth,
to the Class B Certificates; seventh, to the Class A-M Certificates; and finally, to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class
A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4 and Class A-5 Certificates, pro rata, based on their respective Certificate Balances.


 


Any Realized Losses so
allocated to any Class of Certificates shall be allocated among the respective Certificates of such Class in proportion to the
Percentage Interests evidenced thereby.


 


On each Distribution
Date, any VRR Realized Loss for such Distribution Date shall be allocated to the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and, in
connection therewith, the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests will be reduced without distribution,
as a write-off, to the extent of such VRR Realized Loss. Any such VRR Realized Loss shall be allocated in the following order:
first, to the Class V-G Upper-Tier Regular Interest, the Class V-F Upper-Tier Regular Interest, then, to the Class
V-E Upper-Tier Regular Interest, then, to the Class V-D Upper-Tier Regular Interest, then, to the Class V-C Upper-Tier
Regular Interest, then, to the Class V-B Upper-Tier Regular Interest, then, to the Class V-AM Upper-Tier Regular
Interest, and last, to the Class V-A-1 Upper-Tier Regular Interest, the Class V-A-2 Upper-Tier Regular Interest, the Class
V-A-3 Upper-Tier Regular Interest, the Class V-A-SB Upper-Tier Regular Interest, the Class V-A-4 Upper-Tier Regular Interest and
the Class V-A-5 Upper-Tier Regular Interest, pro rata based on their Certificate Balance. If any VRR Realized Loss is so
allocated to a Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interest on any Distribution Date, then such VRR Realized Loss shall, in turn, be allocated
to the related Class of Class V1 Certificates, on the one hand, and the Class V Certificates, on the other hand, in proportion
to, and in reduction of, the respective Certificate Balances thereof.


 


Distributions in reimbursement
of Realized Losses or VRR Realized Losses, as applicable, previously allocated to the respective Classes of the Principal Balance
Certificates and distributions in reimbursement of VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular
Interest (and the respective Classes of Exchangeable Certificates) shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section
4.01(b) or Section 4.01(c), as applicable. Additional Trust Fund Expenses and shortfalls in Available Funds due to extraordinary
expenses of the Trust Fund (including indemnification expenses), a reduction in the Mortgage Rate on a Mortgage Loan by a bankruptcy
court pursuant to a plan of reorganization or pursuant to any of its equitable powers, or otherwise, shall be treated as and allocated
in the same manner as Realized Losses and VRR Realized Losses. Reimbursement of previously allocated Realized Losses and VRR Realized
Losses will not constitute distributions of principal for any purpose and will not result in an additional reduction in the Certificate


 






    -353-


     


    

 


Balance of the Class of Certificates or Class of Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interest in respect of which any such reimbursement
is made.


 


If and to the extent
any Nonrecoverable Advances (plus interest thereon) that were reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans and previously
resulted in a reduction of the Aggregate Principal Distribution Amount are subsequently recovered on the related Mortgage Loan,
then (on the Distribution Date related to the Collection Period during which the recovery occurred): (i) the Non-VRR Interest Percentage
of the amount of such recovery will be added to the Certificate Balance of the Classes of Principal Balance Certificates that previously
were allocated Realized Losses, in the same sequential order as distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(b), in each case
up to the lesser of (A) the unallocated portion of the Non-VRR Interest Percentage of the amount of such recovery and (B) the amount
of the unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to the subject Class of Certificates, and the Interest Shortfall with
respect to each affected Class of Regular Certificates for the next Distribution Date will be increased by the aggregate amount
of interest that would have accrued through the then current Distribution Date if the restored write-down for the reimbursed Class
of Principal Balance Certificates had never been written down; and (ii) the VRR Interest Percentage of the amount of such recovery
will be added to the Certificate Balances of the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests up to the lesser of (A) the VRR Interest
Percentage of the amount of such recovery and (B) the amount of the unreimbursed VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to the
Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests, and the interest payable on the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests will be deemed increased
by the VRR Allocation Percentage of any contemporaneous increases in interest payable on the Regular Certificates pursuant to clause
(i) of this sentence. To the extent that the Certificate Balance of, and/or any interest payable on, any Class of Regular Certificates
or the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interest is so increased, an identical increase shall be deemed made to the Lower-Tier Principal
Balance of, and any interest payable on, the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest. If the Certificate Balance of a Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interest is increased as contemplated above in this paragraph, then: (i) the Certificate Balance of the Class
V2 Certificates shall be increased by the Class V2 Percentage of such increase in the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Upper-Tier
Regular Interest; and (ii) the Certificate Balances of the respective Classes of the Class V1 Certificates shall be increased,
in the aggregate, by the Class V1 Percentage of such increase in the Certificate Balance of the applicable Class VRR Upper-Tier
Regular Interest, with such aggregate increase to be allocated to the individual Certificate Balances of the respective Classes
of the Class V1 Certificates, in the same sequential order as distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(c), in each case up
to the amount of unreimbursed VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to the subject Class of Class V1 Certificates. If the Certificate
Balance of any Class of Principal Balance Certificates or Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interest (or any of the respective Classes
of Exchangeable Certificates) (or the Lower-Tier Principal Balance of any Lower-Tier Regular Interest) is so increased, the amount
of unreimbursed Realized Losses or VRR Realized Losses, as applicable, of such Class of Principal Balance Certificates or Class
VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interest (or such Lower-Tier Regular Interest), as the case may be, shall be decreased by such amount, and
any interest accrued on the amount of unreimbursed Realized Losses or VRR Realized Losses, as applicable, so decreased shall be
deemed not to exist.


 






    -354-


     


    


 


With respect to any Distribution
Date, any Realized Losses or VRR Realized Losses, as applicable, allocated pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Distribution
Date shall reduce the Lower-Tier Principal Balances of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests as a write-off and shall be allocated among
the Lower-Tier Regular Interests in the same priority as the Class of Corresponding Certificates.


 


(g)          All
amounts distributable to a Class of Certificates pursuant to this Section 4.01 on each Distribution Date shall be allocated
pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in each such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


(h)          Except
as otherwise provided in Section 9.01 with respect to an Anticipated Termination Date, the Certificate Administrator shall,
as soon as reasonably practicable within the month preceding the month in which the final distribution with respect to any Class
of Certificates is expected to be made, mail to each Holder of such Class of Certificates on such date a notice to the effect that:


 


(A)          the
Certificate Administrator reasonably expects based upon information previously provided to it that the final distribution with
respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date, but only upon presentation and surrender of such
Certificates at the office of the Certificate Administrator therein specified, and


 


(B)          if
such final distribution is made on such Distribution Date, no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after such Distribution
Date;


 


provided, that the Class R Certificates
shall remain outstanding until no other Class of Certificates or Lower-Tier Regular Interests are outstanding.


 


Any funds not distributed
to any Holder or Holders of such Classes of Certificates on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders
to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Holder
or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(h) shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice
to the remaining non-tendering Holders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may,


 






    -355-


     


    

 


directly
or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Holders concerning surrender of their Certificates.
The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Holders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject
to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders
thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier
of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator hereunder and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator
and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall
accrue or be payable to any Holder on any amount held hereunder or by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Holder’s
failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(h). Any such amounts
transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments and all income and gain realized from investment
of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


(i)          The
Non-VRR Interest Percentage of the Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any, for each Distribution Date will be allocated (and
the Non-VRR Interest Percentage of Compensating Interest Payments shall be deemed distributed) among the various Classes of Non-VRR
Certificates, and the VRR Interest Percentage of the Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any, for each Distribution Date will
be deemed allocated (and the VRR Interest Percentage of Compensating Interest Payments shall be deemed distributed) to the Class
VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests and, in each case, correspondingly to the respective Class or Classes of Corresponding Lower-Tier
Regular Interests, pro rata, based upon the Interest Accrual Amount distributable to each such Class of Certificates prior
to reduction by such Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfalls. Compensating Interest Payments shall be deposited by the Master Servicer
into the Collection Account on or prior to the Master Servicer Remittance Date.


 


(j)          On
the final Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and deliver to the Certificate
Administrator who shall distribute to the Mortgage Loan Sellers, any Loss of Value Payments relating to the Mortgage Loans that
it is servicing and that were transferred from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Collection Account on the immediately preceding
Master Servicer Remittance Date in accordance with Section 3.06(e)(v) of this Agreement.


 


(k)          On
each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Excess Interest Distribution Account any amounts
on deposit therein that represent Excess Interest received with respect to each ARD Loan during the related Collection Period shall
be distributed (i) to the Holders of the Class S Certificates in an amount equal to the Non-VRR Interest Percentage of such Excess
Interest; (ii) to the Holders of the Class V1-E Certificates in an aggregate amount equal to the product of (A) the VRR Interest
Percentage, multiplied by (B) the then applicable Class V1 Percentage, multiplied by (C) the amount of such Excess Interest; and
(iii) to the Holders of the Class V2 Certificates in an aggregate amount equal to the product of (A) the VRR Interest Percentage,
multiplied by (B) the then applicable Class V2 Percentage, multiplied by (C) the amount of such Excess Interest.

the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, has received such notice from the Controlling Class Representative
or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that it has become a Conflicted Controlling Class Holder. None of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable for any communication to the Controlling
Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder or disclosure of Conflicted Information if the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, did not receive prior written notice that
the related Mortgage Loan is a Conflicted Controlling Class Mortgage Loan (including, in the case of a summary of an Asset Status

as applicable, substantially in the form of Exhibit L1-B that such Person is no longer a Conflicted Controlling Class Holder.

access to such Conflicted Information, such Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be deemed
to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly provide any information related to the Conflicted Controlling Class
Mortgage Loan to the related Borrower or to any Conflicted Controlling Class Holder or (A) any employees or personnel of such
Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder or any Affiliate involved in the management of any investment
in the related Borrower or the related Mortgaged Property or (B) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct
or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies

Retention Consultation Party or a Holder of a Class V1 or Class V2 Certificate receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any
information solely related to a Mortgage Loan with respect to which such party is a Borrower Party (which shall include any Asset
Status Reports, Final Asset Status Reports (or summaries thereof), inspection reports related to Specially Serviced Loans conducted
by the Special Servicer or any Non-Conflicted Special Servicer and which may include any Operating Advisor reports delivered to
the Certificate Administrator regarding the Special Servicer’s net present value determination or any Appraisal Reduction
Amount calculations, and any Officer’s Certificates delivered by the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,

information with respect to such Mortgage Loan that is aggregated with information of other Mortgage Loans at a pool level), on
the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise receives access to such information, the Risk Retention Consultation
Party or Holder of a Class V1 or Class V2 Certificate shall be deemed to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly
provide any such information to (A) the related Borrower Party, (B) any employees or personnel of the Risk Retention Consultation
Party or Holder of a Class V1 or Class V2 Certificate or any of its Affiliates involved in the management of any investment in
the related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (C) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct
or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate
policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above. For the avoidance
of doubt, any file or report contained in the CREFC® Investor Reporting Package (CREFC® IRP) (other
than the CREFC® Special Servicer Loan File relating to any such Conflicted Loan) shall be considered information
that is aggregated with information of other Mortgage Loans at a pool level.

and Certificate Owners can register and thereafter obtain contact information with respect to any other Certificateholder or Certificate
Owner that has so registered. Any person registering to use the Investor Registry will be required to certify that (a) it is a
Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner and (b) it grants authorization to the Certificate Administrator to make its name and
contact information available on the Investor Registry for at least 45 days from the date of such certification to other registered
Certificateholders and registered Certificate Owners. Such Person shall then be asked to enter certain mandatory fields such as
the individual’s name, the company name and email address, as well as certain optional fields such as address, phone, and
Class(es) of Certificates owned. If any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner notifies the Certificate Administrator that it wishes
to be removed from the Investor Registry (which notice may not be within 45 days of its registration), the Certificate Administrator
shall promptly remove it from the Investor Registry. The Certificate Administrator will not be responsible for verifying or validating
any information submitted on the Investor Registry, or for monitoring or otherwise maintaining the accuracy of any information
thereon. The Certificate Administrator may require acceptance of a waiver and disclaimer for access to the Investor Registry.

(e)          The
Master Servicer may at its sole cost and expense, but is not required to, make any of the reports or files it delivers pursuant
to this Agreement available on the Master Servicer’s website only with the use of a password, in which case the Master Servicer
shall provide such password to (i) the other parties to this Agreement, who by their acceptance of such password shall be deemed
to have agreed not to disclose such password to any other Person and (ii) each Certificateholder and prospective Certificateholder
who requests such password, provided that any such Certificateholder or prospective Certificateholder, as the case may be,
has delivered an Investor Certification to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer. In connection with
providing access to the Master Servicer’s website, the Master Servicer may require registration and the acceptance of a disclaimer
and otherwise (subject to the preceding sentence) adopt reasonable rules and procedures, which may include, to the extent the Master
Servicer deems necessary or appropriate, conditioning access on execution of an agreement governing the availability, use and disclosure
of such information, and which may provide indemnification to the Master Servicer for any liability or damage that may arise therefrom.
The Master Servicer shall not be liable for dissemination of this information in accordance with this Agreement, provided
that such information otherwise meets the requirements set forth herein with respect to the form and substance of such information
or reports. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to attach to any report provided pursuant to this subsection, any reasonable
disclaimer with respect to information provided, or any assumptions required to be made by such report. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer may, at its sole cost and expense, make available by electronic media, bulletin board
service or Internet website any reports or other information the Master Servicer is required or permitted to provide to any Borrower
with respect to such Borrower’s Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan to the extent such action does not conflict with the
terms of this Agreement, the terms of the related Loan Documents or applicable law. If the Master Servicer is required to deliver
any statement, report or other information under any provision of this Agreement, then, the Master Servicer may satisfy such obligation
by (x) physically delivering a paper copy of such statement, report or information, (y) delivering such statement, report or information
in a commonly used electronic format, or (z) making such statement, report or information available on its website, unless this
Agreement expressly specifies a particular method of delivery; provided that all reports required to be delivered to the
Certificate Administrator shall be delivered in accordance with clause (x) or (y) or, upon request, clause (z).


 


(f)          Subject
to Section 3.13, the Special Servicer shall from time to time (and, in any event, as may be reasonably requested by the
Master Servicer) provide the Master Servicer with such information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and
REO Properties as may be reasonably necessary for the Master Servicer to prepare each report and any supplemental information to
be provided by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator. Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Depositor shall
have any obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate the information provided thereto by the Master Servicer. Unless the Certificate
Administrator has actual knowledge that any report or file received from the Master Servicer contains erroneous information, the
Certificate Administrator is authorized to rely thereon in calculating and making distributions to Certificateholders and allocating
Realized Losses to the Certificates in accordance with Section 4.01 of this Agreement and preparing the statements to Certificateholders
required by Section 4.02(a) of this Agreement.

(g)          As
soon as reasonably practicable, upon the written request of and at the expense of any Certificateholder, the Certificate Administrator
shall provide the requesting Certificateholder with such information that is in the Certificate Administrator’s possession
or can reasonably be obtained by the Certificate Administrator as is requested by such Certificateholder, for purposes of satisfying
applicable reporting requirements under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Certificate
Administrator shall have any responsibility for the sufficiency under Rule 144A or any other securities laws of any available information
so furnished to any person including any prospective purchaser of a Certificate or any interest therein, nor for the content or
accuracy of any information so furnished which was prepared or delivered to them by another.


 


(h)          The
Certificate Administrator shall make available at its offices, during normal business hours, upon not less than two Business Days
prior notice, for review by any Privileged Person and any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder that is a Privileged Person (solely
with respect to items (ii) and (iii), to the extent such information relates to the related Serviced Companion Loan), originals
or copies of documents relating to the Mortgage Loans and any related REO Properties to the extent in its possession, including,
without limitation, the following items (except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or under any of the related Loan Documents):


 


(i)          
any and all notices and reports delivered to the Certificate Administrator with respect to any Mortgaged Property as to which
the environmental testing contemplated by Section 3.10(f) of this Agreement revealed that neither of the conditions
set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) thereof was satisfied;


 


(ii)         
 the most recent annual (or more frequent, if available) operating statements, rent rolls (to the extent such rent rolls
have been made available by the related Borrower) and/or lease summaries and retail sales information, if any, received from
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in respect to each Mortgaged Property;


 


(iii)          the
Mortgage File, including any and all modifications, waivers and amendments of the terms of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan
entered into by the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer and delivered to the Certificate Administrator; and


 


(iv)          any
other information that may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of subsection (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A under the Securities Act.


 


The Certificate Administrator
may require a Privileged Person to execute an Investor Certification prior to granting access to such information, which may be
in the form of a “click-through” confirmation. Copies of any and all of the foregoing items will be available from
the Certificate Administrator upon request. The Certificate Administrator will be permitted to require payment by the requesting
party (other than a Rating Agency) of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of making such information available
and providing any copies thereof. The Certificate Administrator’s obligation under this Section 4.02(h) to make available
any document is subject to the Certificate Administrator’s receipt of such document.


 






    -370-


     


    

 


The Certificate Administrator
shall not be liable for providing or disseminating information in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 


(i)          The
Depositor hereby authorizes the Certificate Administrator to make available to any Financial Market Publisher or such other vendor
chosen by the Depositor that submits to the Certificate Administrator a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2
to this Agreement, all the Distribution Date Statements, CREFC® reports and supplemental notices delivered or made
available pursuant to this Section 4.02 to Privileged Persons.


 


Section 4.03 Compliance
with Withholding Requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Paying Agent shall comply with
all federal withholding requirements with respect to payments to Certificateholders and other payees of interest, original issue
discount or other amounts that the Paying Agent reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of Certificateholders
or payees shall not be required for any such withholding. If the Paying Agent or its agent withholds any amount from interest,
original issue discount payments or other amounts or advances thereof to any Certificateholder or payee pursuant to federal withholding
requirements, the Paying Agent shall indicate the amount withheld to such Certificateholder or payee. Any amount so withheld shall
be treated as having been distributed to such Certificateholder for all purposes of this Agreement.


 


Section 4.04 REMIC
Compliance. (a) The parties intend that the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall constitute, and that the
affairs of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall be conducted so as to qualify it as, a “real estate mortgage
investment conduit” as defined in, and in accordance with, the REMIC Provisions at all times any Certificates are outstanding,
and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, the Certificate
Administrator shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, act as agent, and is hereby appointed to act as agent, of each
such REMIC and shall on behalf of each such REMIC:


 


(i)          make
or cause to be made an election, on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, to be treated as a REMIC on
Form 1066 for its first taxable year, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions;


 


(ii)          prepare
and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, and cause the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall sign), all required
Tax Returns for the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, using a calendar year as the taxable year for each of such REMIC
as required by the REMIC Provisions and other applicable federal, state or local income tax laws;


 


(iii)          prepare
and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the Certificateholders and the IRS and applicable state and local tax authorities
all information reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions;


 


(iv)          if
the filing or distribution of any documents of an administrative nature not addressed in clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section
4.04(a) is then required by the REMIC Provisions in order to maintain the status of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier
REMIC as a REMIC or is otherwise required by the Code, prepare and file or distribute,


 






    -371-


     


    

 


or cause to be prepared and signed and filed
or distributed, such documents with or to such Persons when and as required by the REMIC Provisions or the Code or comparable provisions
of state and local law;


 


(v)          within
30 days of the Closing Date, obtain a taxpayer identification number for each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC
on IRS Form SS-4 and (in the case of the Upper-Tier REMIC only), furnish or cause to be furnished to the IRS, on Form 8811 or as
otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title and address of the person that the Certificateholders may contact for tax
information relating thereto (and the Certificate Administrator shall act as the representative of the Upper-Tier REMIC for this
purpose), together with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and shall update such information at the time
or times and in the manner required by the Code (and the Depositor agrees within 10 Business Days of the Closing Date to provide
any information reasonably requested by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator and necessary
to make such filing); and


 


(vi)          maintain
such records relating to the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules,
statements or information, such records, for federal income tax purposes, to be maintained on a calendar year and on an accrual
basis.


 


The Certificate Administrator
shall be designated as the “representative” of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC within the meaning of
Section 6223 of the Code and each Holder of a Percentage Interest in the Class R Certificates, by acceptance hereof, is deemed
to have consented to such designation and agrees to execute any documents required to give effect thereto, and any fees and expenses
incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with any audit or administrative or judicial proceeding shall be paid by
the Trust Fund.


 


The Certificate Administrator
shall not intentionally take any action or intentionally omit to take any action if, in taking or omitting to take such action,
the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge that such action or omission (as the case may be) would cause the termination
of the REMIC status of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC or the imposition of tax on the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier
REMIC (other than a tax on income expressly permitted to be received by the terms of this Agreement). Notwithstanding any provision
of this paragraph to the contrary, the Certificate Administrator shall not be required to take any action that the Certificate
Administrator in good faith believes to be inconsistent with any other provision of this Agreement, nor shall the Certificate Administrator
be deemed in violation of this paragraph if it takes any action expressly required or authorized by any other provision of this
Agreement, and the Certificate Administrator shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to any act or omission of the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer which does not enable the Certificate Administrator to comply
with any of clauses (i) through (vi) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.04(a) or which results in any action contemplated
by clauses (i) or (ii) of the next succeeding sentence. In this regard the Certificate Administrator shall (i) exercise reasonable
care not to allow the occurrence of any “prohibited transactions” within the meaning of Section 860F(a) of the Code,
unless the party seeking such action shall have delivered to the Certificate Administrator an Opinion of Counsel (at such party’s
expense) that such occurrence would not (A) result in a taxable gain,


 






    -372-


     


    

 


(B)
otherwise subject the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to tax (other than a tax at the highest marginal corporate tax
rate on net income from foreclosure property), or (c) cause the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as
a REMIC; and (ii) exercise reasonable care not to allow the Trust Fund to receive any contributions, or any income from the performance
of services or from assets not permitted under the REMIC Provisions to be held by a REMIC (provided, that the receipt of
any income expressly permitted or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed to violate this clause). None
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Depositor shall be (i) permitted to take any action that the
Certificate Administrator would not be permitted to take pursuant to the preceding two sentences or (ii) responsible or liable
(except in connection with taking any act or omission referred to in the two preceding sentences or the following sentence) for
any failure by the Certificate Administrator to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.04. The Depositor, the Trustee,
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall cooperate in a timely manner with the Certificate Administrator in supplying
any information within the Depositor’s, the Trustee’s, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s
control (other than any confidential information) that is reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to perform
its duties under this Section 4.04.


 


The Certificate Administrator
shall be responsible for the preparation of IRS Form W-9, if requested. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on any information
contained therein and is hereby directed to execute such IRS Form W-9; provided, that the Certificate Administrator shall
be directed to execute such IRS Form W-9 (in lieu of the Trustee) if permitted by applicable Treasury Regulations.


 


The Certificate Administrator’s
authority under this Agreement includes the authority to make, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to make, any
elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Section 6221 of the Code (or successor provisions) to any REMIC
and (ii) to avoid payment by any Trust REMIC under Section 6226 of the Code (or successor provisions) of any tax, penalty, interest
or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any Holder of any Class R Certificate, past or present.
A Holder of any Class R Certificate agrees, by acquiring such interest, to any such elections and to the Certificate Administrator’s
designation as “representative” of each REMIC under Section 6223 of the Code.


 


(b)          The
following assumptions are to be used for purposes of determining the anticipated payments of principal and interest for calculating
the original yield to maturity and original issue discount with respect to the Certificates: (i) each Mortgage Loan will pay principal
and interest in accordance with its terms and scheduled payments will be timely received on their Due Dates, provided that
the Mortgage Loans will prepay in accordance with the Prepayment Assumption; (ii) none of the Sole Certificateholder, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interests in the Controlling Class
will exercise the right described in Section 9.01 of this Agreement to cause early termination of the Trust Fund; and (iii)
no Mortgage Loan is repurchased by a Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.


 


Section 4.05 Imposition
of Tax on the Trust Fund. If any tax, including interest, penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions
to tax, is imposed on the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise


 






    -373-


     


    

 


distributable
to the Holders of the Certificates; provided that any taxes imposed on any net income from foreclosure property pursuant
to Section 860G(d) of the Code or any similar tax imposed by a state or local jurisdiction shall instead be treated as an expense
of the related Serviced REO Property in determining Net REO Proceeds with respect to the Serviced REO Property (and until such
taxes are paid, the Special Servicer from time to time shall withdraw from amounts in the REO Account (and, in the case of any
Serviced Whole Loan, from amounts in the Serviced Whole Loan REO Account) allocable to the Mortgage Loans and transfer to the
Certificate Administrator amounts reasonably determined by the Certificate Administrator to be necessary to pay such taxes, which
the Certificate Administrator shall maintain in a separate, non-interest-bearing account, and the Certificate Administrator shall
send to the Special Servicer for deposit in the REO Account (or, if applicable, the Serviced Whole Loan REO Account) the excess
determined by the Certificate Administrator from time to time of the amount in such account over the amount necessary to pay such
taxes) and shall be paid therefrom; provided that any such tax imposed on net income from foreclosure property that exceeds
the amount in any such reserve shall be retained from Aggregate Available Funds as provided in Section 3.06(a)(xii) or,
in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, in Section 3.06(b)(xiii), and the next sentence. Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, the Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall retain or cause to be retained from Aggregate Available
Funds sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is legally owed by the applicable
Trust REMIC (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trustee from contesting, at the expense of the Trust Fund or in the
case of a Serviced Whole Loan with a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, on a pro rata basis as between the related Mortgage
Loan and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (based on their respective outstanding principal balances)) any such tax
in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings).
The Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall segregate or cause to be segregated, into a separate non-interest
bearing account, (i) the net income allocable to the Mortgage Loans from any “prohibited transaction” under Section
860F(a) of the Code or (ii) the amount of any contribution to the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC after the Startup Day
that is subject to tax under Section 860G(d) of the Code and use such income or amount, to the extent necessary, to pay such tax
(and return the balance thereof, if any, to the Collection Account, the Lower-Tier Distribution Account or the Upper-Tier Distribution
Account). To the extent that any such tax is paid to the IRS, the Certificate Administrator shall retain an equal amount from
future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as the case may be, and shall distribute such
retained amounts to the Holders of Regular Certificates and the Exchangeable Certificates, and the Trustee as Holder of the Class
VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests, or the Trustee as Holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, until they are fully reimbursed
and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates. Neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator,
nor the Trustee shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC except to the extent
such tax is attributable to a breach of a representation or warranty or the negligence or willful misconduct of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee or an act or omission of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee in contravention of this Agreement, provided, further, that such breach,
act or omission could result in liability under Section 6.03 of this Agreement, in the case of the Master Servicer, Section
4.04 of this Agreement, in the case of the Trustee or Section 4.04 of this Agreement, in the case of the Certificate
Administrator in accordance with the standard of liability set forth in


 






    -374-


     


    

 


those sections. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, in each such case, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall not be responsible for the Trustee’s
or the Certificate Administrator’s breaches, acts or omissions, the Trustee shall not be responsible for the breaches, acts
or omissions of the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator shall
not be responsible for the breaches, acts or omissions of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.


 


Section 4.06 Remittances. On
the Master Servicer Remittance Date immediately preceding each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage
Loans that it is servicing shall:


 


(i)          remit
to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account an amount equal to Prepayment Premiums and
Yield Maintenance Charges, and, for deposit in accordance with Section 3.05(i) of this Agreement, Gain-on-Sale Proceeds,
in each case received by the Master Servicer in its Collection Period preceding such Distribution Date;


 


(ii)          remit
to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate of the Aggregate
Available Funds for such Distribution Date;


 


(iii)          remit
to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Excess Interest Distribution Account an amount equal to the Excess Interest
for the benefit of the Holders of the Excess Interest Certificates received by the Master Servicer in the Collection Period preceding
such Distribution Date; and


 


(iv)          remit
to CREFC® the CREFC® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee.


 


Section 4.07 P&I
Advances. (a) On or before 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer
shall in the case of all Mortgage Loans either (i) remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Lower-Tier Distribution
Account, as applicable, from its own funds an amount equal to the aggregate amount of P&I Advances, if any, to be made in
respect of the related Distribution Date, (ii) apply amounts held in the Collection Account or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan
Collection Account for future distribution to Certificateholders in subsequent months in discharge of any such obligation to make
P&I Advances; provided, that such amounts in the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account shall only be applied
up to the related Mortgage Loan’s pro rata share of the amounts held therein on such date, or (iii) make P&I
Advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master
Servicer, except that the portion of such P&I Advance equal to the CREFC® Intellectual Property Royalty
License Fee for each such Mortgage Loan shall not be remitted to the Certificate Administrator but shall instead be remitted to
CREFC®. Any amounts held in the Collection Account or any Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account, as applicable,
for future distribution and so used to make P&I Advances shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records
and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account,
as applicable, on or before the next succeeding P&I Advance Determination Date (to the extent not previously replaced through
either (x) the deposit of Late Collections of the delinquent principal and/or interest in respect of


 






    -375-


     


    

 


which
such P&I Advances were made or (y) the deposit of Periodic Payments collected prior to the expiration of any applicable grace
period that ends after the P&I Advance Determination Date in respect of which such P&I Advances were made). The Master
Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator of (i) the aggregate amount of P&I Advances for a Distribution
Date and (ii) the amount of any Nonrecoverable P&I Advances for such Distribution Date, on or before the P&I Advance Determination
Date. If the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Master Servicer
Remittance Date, then the Trustee shall make such P&I Advance pursuant to Section 7.06 of this Agreement by 12:00 noon
(New York City time) on the related Distribution Date, in each case unless the Master Servicer shall have cured such failure (and
shall have provided written notice of such cure to the Trustee) by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such Distribution Date or
the Trustee determines that such P&I Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Neither the Master Servicer nor
the Trustee shall be required to make principal or interest advances with respect to any delinquent payment amounts due on any
Companion Loan. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes a P&I Advance with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is part of
a Whole Loan with a related Serviced Companion Loan or Non-Serviced Companion Loan, then it shall provide written notice to the
related Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer and Other Trustee of the amount of such P&I Advance with respect to such Mortgage
Loan within two (2) Business Days of making such P&I Advance.


 


(b)          Subject
to Section 4.07(c) and 4.07(d) below, the aggregate amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer
with respect to any Distribution Date shall equal the aggregate of: (i) the Periodic Payments (net of related Servicing Fees (other
than, in the case of any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the servicing fee rate pursuant to the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing
Agreement)) that were due on the Mortgage Loans and any REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion
Loan) during the related Collection Period and delinquent as of the P&I Advance Determination Date (or not advanced by any
Sub Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer) and (ii) with respect to each Mortgage Loan delinquent in respect of its Balloon
Payment as of the Master Servicer Remittance Date (including any REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion
Loan) as to which the related Balloon Payment would have been past due), an amount equal to the Assumed Scheduled Payment therefor.
Subject to subsection (c) below, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make such P&I Advances, with respect to the Mortgage
Loans that it is servicing, is mandatory, and with respect to any applicable Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, shall continue until (but
not including) the Distribution Date on which Liquidation Proceeds or REO Proceeds, if any, are to be distributed. The Periodic
Payment or Assumed Scheduled Payment shall be reduced, for purposes of P&I Advances, by any modifications pursuant to Section
3.26 of this Agreement or otherwise and by any reductions by a bankruptcy court pursuant to a plan of reorganization or pursuant
to any of its equitable powers.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance shall be required hereunder if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or
the Trustee, as applicable, determines that such P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. In
addition, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall make any P&I Advance to the extent that it has received written
notice that the Special Servicer has determined (if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, in consultation
with the Directing Holder) that such P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I


 






    -376-


     


    

 


Advance.
In making such recoverability determination, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be
entitled to (i) give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount with respect
to other Mortgage Loans, the recovery of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery
not only for the P&I Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of recovery of such Nonrecoverable Advance
or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount which is being or may be deferred or delayed, (ii) consider (among other things) the obligations
of the Borrower under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan (or the Whole Loan, as applicable) as it may have been modified,
(iii) consider (among other things) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as is” or then current conditions and
occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer
and the Special Servicer) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse change with respect to such Mortgaged Properties,
(iv) estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer)
(among other things) future expenses and (v) estimate and consider (among other things) the timing of recoveries.


 


The Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior P&I Advances
for purposes of nonrecoverability determinations as if such Unliquidated Advances were unreimbursed P&I Advances. None of the
Master Servicer or Trustee shall make any P&I Advances with respect to delinquent amounts due on any Companion Loan. If an
Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property shall not have been obtained within the prior 9-month period (and the Master Servicer
and the Trustee shall each request any such appraisal from the Special Servicer prior to ordering an Appraisal pursuant to this
sentence) or if such an Appraisal shall have been obtained but as a result of unforeseen occurrences, such Appraisal does not,
in the good faith determination of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reflect current market conditions,
and the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, and the Special Servicer cannot agree on the appropriate downward adjustment
to such Appraisal, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, may, subject to its reasonable
and good faith determination that such Appraisal will demonstrate the nonrecoverability of the related Advance, obtain an Appraisal
for such purpose at the expense of the Trust Fund (subject, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, to the allocation provisions
of the related Intercreditor Agreement).


 


Any such determination
by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or the Trustee that the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, has made a Nonrecoverable
P&I Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance shall be evidenced
by a certificate of a Servicing Officer delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Special
Servicer, any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan holder(s), the Controlling Class Representative (but only if no Consultation
Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) and the Depositor and, in the case of the Trustee, by a certificate of a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, delivered to the Depositor, the Controlling Class Representative (but only if no Consultation Termination
Event has occurred and is continuing), the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer, which in each case sets forth such nonrecoverability determination and the considerations of the Master Servicer, Special
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the


 






    -377-


     


    

 


basis
of such determination (such certificate accompanied by, to the extent available, income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy
status, property inspections and other information used by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable,
to make such determination, together with any existing Appraisal or any Updated Appraisal); provided, that with respect
to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing
Standard, that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made is nonrecoverable and shall deliver to the Master Servicer,
the Controlling Class Representative (but only if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the 17g-5 Information Provider (who
shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement),
notice of such determination, together with a certificate of a Servicing Officer and the supporting information described above.
Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee.


 


Any such Person may update
or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination or prohibit any
such other authorized Person from making a determination, that a P&I Advance constitutes, or would constitute a Nonrecoverable
Advance) and (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) may obtain, at
the expense of the Trust Fund (subject, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, to the allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor
Agreement), any analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for such purposes. Absent bad faith, any such
determination as to the recoverability of any P&I Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders.


 


Notwithstanding the above,
(i) the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on and be bound by any determination by the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, that a P&I Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance and (ii) the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to rely conclusively on and be bound by any determination of the Special Servicer that a P&I Advance, if
made, would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse
any other authorized Person’s determination, or to prohibit any such other authorized Person from making a determination
that an advance constitutes, or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance). The Trustee, in determining whether or not a P&I
Advance previously made is, or a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be, a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance shall use its good
faith business judgment. The Special Servicer shall promptly furnish the Master Servicer and the Trustee with any information in
its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as each such party may reasonably request for purposes
of making recoverability determinations.


 


(d)          In
connection with the recovery of any P&I Advance out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement
or any Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.06(b) of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be
entitled to pay itself or the Trustee, as the case may be (in reverse of such order with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property)
out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account or the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account (subject
to the provisions of Section 3.06) (to the extent amounts therein relate to the Mortgage Loans, taking into account the


 






    -378-


     


    

 


related
Intercreditor Agreement), interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such P&I
Advance from the date made to but not including the date of reimbursement with respect to the Mortgage Loan that the Master Servicer
is servicing; provided, however, that no interest will accrue on any P&I Advance (i) made with respect to a
Mortgage Loan until after the related Due Date has passed and any applicable grace period has expired or (ii) if the related Periodic
Payment is received after the Determination Date but on or prior to the Business Day immediately prior to the related Distribution
Date. The Master Servicer shall reimburse itself or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding P&I Advance as soon
as practicably possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account or the applicable Serviced
Whole Loan Collection Account with respect to the Mortgage Loan that the Master Servicer is servicing.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in Section 4.06 of this Agreement, (i) neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall make
an advance for Excess Interest, Yield Maintenance Charges or Penalty Charges and (ii) if the Master Servicer receives notice of
an Appraisal Reduction Event and the related Appraisal Reduction Amount, the interest portion of any P&I Advance with respect
to a Serviced Mortgage Loan as to which there has been an Appraisal Reduction Amount will be an amount equal to the product of
(x) the amount required to be advanced without giving effect to the Appraisal Reduction Amount and (y) a fraction, the numerator
of which is the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan as of the immediately preceding Determination Date less any Appraisal
Reduction Amount applicable to such Mortgage Loan and the denominator of which is the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage
Loan as of such Determination Date. All P&I Advances for any Mortgage Loans that have been modified shall be calculated on
the basis of their terms as modified. With respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as
applicable, does not receive notice of an Appraisal Reduction Event and the related Appraisal Reduction Amount from the related
Other Servicer, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall have no obligation to proportionately reduce the
interest portion of any P&I Advance required to be made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. With respect
to any Non-Serviced Companion Loan that has already been securitized prior to the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator,
on behalf of the Trust, shall notify each Other Servicer and each Other Trustee of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan that (a) such Non-Serviced
Mortgage Loan has been included in this Trust and (b) upon (i) the existence of an Appraisal Reduction Event and/or (ii) the related
calculation of any Appraisal Reduction Amount (or receipt of notice of any such calculation), such Other Servicer shall provide
the Master Servicer (who shall promptly provide to the Special Servicer (who shall promptly forward, prior to a Consultation Termination
Event, to the Directing Holder) and the Trustee with prompt notice of the existence of any such Appraisal Reduction Event and/or
any such Appraisal Reduction Amount once calculated. With respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer shall notify
the related Other Servicer and Other Trustee of the existence of an Appraisal Reduction Event and any related Appraisal Reduction
Amount. The Master Servicer shall be deemed to have delivered notice of any such Appraisal Reduction Event and any related Appraisal
Reduction Amount if the Master Servicer includes such event and/or amount in its monthly servicer statements provided to the other
servicer.


 


The portion of any Insurance
Proceeds and Net Liquidation Proceeds in respect of a Mortgage Loan or any REO Loan allocable to principal shall equal the total
amount of such


 






    -379-


     


    

 


proceeds
minus (i) any portion thereof payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) a portion thereof equal to the interest
component of the Periodic Payment(s), as accrued at the related Net Mortgage Rate from the date as to which interest was last
paid by the Borrower up to but not including the Due Date in the Collection Period in which such proceeds are received; provided,
if the interest portion(s) of one or more P&I Advances with respect of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as applicable, were
reduced as a result of an Appraisal Reduction Event, the amount of the Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to interest shall
be reduced by the aggregate amount of such reductions and the portion of such Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to principal
shall be increased by such amount, and if the amount of the Net Liquidation Proceeds to be applied to principal has been applied
to pay the principal of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan in full, any remaining Net Liquidation Proceeds shall then be applied to
pay any remaining accrued and unpaid interest of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan.


 


(e)          With
respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee will each be permitted to
make its determination that the Master Servicer or the Trustee has made a P&I Advance on such Mortgage Loan that is a Nonrecoverable
P&I Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance with respect to
such Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 4.07(a) independently of any determination made by the Other Servicer (or
any master servicer with respect to a commercial mortgage securitization holding another Non-Serviced Companion Loan related to
such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if any) under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement (or any pooling and servicing agreement
with respect to a commercial mortgage securitization holding another Non-Serviced Companion Loan related to such Non-Serviced Mortgage
Loan, if any). If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that a proposed P&I Advance
with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage
Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the Other Servicer (and any master servicer with respect to a commercial mortgage securitization
holding another Non-Serviced Companion Loan related to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if any), the Other Special Servicer and
Other Trustee with written notice of such determination, promptly and in any event within two (2) Business Days after such determination
or such longer time period permitted by the applicable Intercreditor Agreement. If the Master Servicer receives written notice
from an Other Servicer (or any master servicer with respect to a commercial mortgage securitization holding another Non-Serviced
Companion Loan related to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if any) that it has determined, with respect to the related Non-Serviced
Companion Loan, that any proposed advance of principal and/or interest with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan
would be, or any outstanding advance of principal and interest is, a nonrecoverable advance of principal and/or interest, such
determination shall not be binding on the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Trustee; provided that, with respect
to each Non-Serviced Whole Loan, each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such
nonrecoverability determination.


 


If the Master Servicer
receives notice from a Rating Agency that it is no longer approved as a master servicer for commercial mortgage securitizations,
it shall promptly notify


 






    -380-


     


    

 


the
Trustee, any Other Trustee, any Other Servicer and any other trustee or master servicer with respect to each commercial mortgage
securitization that holds a Non-Serviced Companion Loan related to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if any.


 


(f)          With
respect to any Serviced Whole Loan that has a Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee
will be permitted to make its determination that the Master Servicer or the Trustee has made a P&I Advance on the related Mortgage
Loan that is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable
P&I Advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan in accordance with (a) independently of any determination made in respect
of the related Serviced Companion Loan, by the master servicer under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to
such Serviced Whole Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to any such Mortgage Loan previously made, would
be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable,
subsequently determines that a proposed Servicing Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance or an outstanding Servicing Advance
is or would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the Other Servicer, Other
Special Servicer and the Other Trustee under each related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement with written notice of such determination,
promptly and in any event within two (2) Business Days after such determination or such longer time period permitted by the applicable
Intercreditor Agreement. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from any master servicer under any such Other Pooling and
Servicing Agreement that such master servicer has determined, with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed
advance of principal and/or interest with respect to such Serviced Companion Loan would be, or any outstanding advance of principal
and interest is, a nonrecoverable advance of principal and/or interest, such determination shall not be binding on the Certificateholders,
the Master Servicer or the Trustee; provided that, with respect to each Non-Serviced Whole Loan, each of the Master Servicer
and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such nonrecoverability determination.


 


(g)          If
the applicable Master Servicer receives notice from a Rating Agency that it is no longer approved as a master servicer for commercial
mortgage securitizations, it shall promptly notify the Trustee, any Other Trustee, any Other Servicer and any other trustee or
master servicer with respect to each commercial mortgage securitization that holds a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan related
to any Serviced Whole Loan, if any.


 


(h)          The
Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to the reimbursement of P&I Advances it makes to the extent
permitted pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement together with any related Advance Interest Amount in respect of such
P&I Advances to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement and the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer each hereby covenants and agrees to promptly seek and effect the reimbursement of such Advances from the related Borrowers
to the extent permitted by applicable law and the related Mortgage Loan and this Agreement.


 


Section 4.08 Appraisal
Reductions; Collateral Deficiency Amounts. (a) For purposes of (x) determining the Non-Reduced Certificates, the Controlling
Class and whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, and (y) determining the Voting


 






    -381-


     


    

 


Rights
of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer, the VRR Interest Percentage of the Appraisal Reduction
Amounts allocated to the Mortgage Loans will be allocated to the VRR Interest to notionally reduce (to not less than zero) the
Certificate Balance of the Class V2 Certificates and the respective Classes of the Class V1 Certificates as follows: (i) the Class
V2 Percentage thereof shall be applied to notionally reduce (to not less than zero) the Certificate Balance of the Class V2 Certificates;
and (ii) the Class V1 Percentage thereof shall be applied to notionally reduce (in the case of any particular Class, to not less
than zero) the Certificate Balances of the Class V1-G Certificates, then the Class V1-F Certificates, then the Class V1-E Certificates,
then the Class V1-D Certificates, then the Class V1-C Certificates, then the Class V1-B Certificates, then the Class V1-AM Certificates,
and then, on a pro rata based on their Certificate Balances, the Class V1-A1, Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class
V1-A4 and Class V1-A5 Certificates, in that order. The Non-VRR Interest Percentage of the Appraisal Reduction Amounts allocated
to the Mortgage Loans will be allocated to each Class of Principal Balance Certificates in reverse sequential order to notionally
reduce the related Certificate Balances until the Certificate Balance of each such Class of Certificates is reduced to zero (i.e.,
first, to the Class G-RR Certificates; second, to the Class F-RR Certificates, third, to the Class E Certificates,
fourth, to the Class D Certificates, fifth, to the Class C Certificates, sixth, to the Class B Certificates,
seventh, to the Class A-M Certificates and ninth, to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-SB, Class A-3, Class A-4
and Class A-5 Certificates, pro rata, based on their Certificate Balances).


 


As of the first Determination
Date following a Serviced Mortgage Loan becoming an AB Modified Loan, the Master Servicer shall calculate whether a Collateral
Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent Appraisal obtained by the Special
Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and all other information relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination.
Upon obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified
Loan, the Master Servicer shall (i) promptly request from the related Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer and Other Trustee
the most recent appraisal with respect to such AB Modified Loan, in addition to all other information reasonably required by the
Master Servicer to calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, and (ii) as of
the first Determination Date following receipt by the Master Servicer of the appraisal and any other information set forth in the
immediately preceding clause (i) that the Master Servicer reasonably expects to receive, calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency
Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent appraisal obtained by the Other Special
Servicer with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and all other information relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount
determination. Upon obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice by any other party to this Agreement that a Non-Serviced Mortgage
Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, such party shall promptly notify the Master Servicer thereof. The Special Servicer, upon reasonable
prior written request, shall provide the Master Servicer with information in its possession that is reasonably required to calculate
or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency Amount. Upon reasonable prior written request, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable
efforts to assist the Master Servicer in obtaining information reasonably required to calculate or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency
Amount with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan in the event that the Master Servicer is unsuccessful in obtaining such information
from the related Other


 






    -382-


     


    

 


Servicer,
Other Special Servicer or Other Trustee. None of the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall calculate
or verify any Collateral Deficiency Amount.


 


For purposes of determining
the Controlling Class and whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, Collateral Deficiency Amounts allocated
to an AB Modified Loan will be allocated by applying the Non-VRR Interest Percentage of the Collateral Deficiency Amounts to each
Class of Control Eligible Certificates in reverse sequential order to notionally reduce the related Certificate Balances until
the Certificate Balance of each such Class of Control Eligible Certificates is reduced to zero. For the avoidance of doubt, for
purposes of determining the Controlling Class or the occurrence of a Control Termination Event, any Class of Control Eligible Certificates
shall be allocated the Non-VRR Interest Percentage of both applicable Appraisal Reduction Amounts and applicable Collateral Deficiency
Amounts (the sum of which shall constitute the applicable Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount), in accordance with this Section
4.08(a).


 


With respect to (i) any
Appraisal Reduction Amount calculated for the purposes of determining the Non-Reduced Certificates or determining the Voting Rights
of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer and (ii) any Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency
Amount calculated for purposes of determining the Controlling Class or the occurrence of a Control Termination Event, the appraised
value of the related Mortgaged Property shall be determined on an “as is” basis.


 


The Master Servicer shall
promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of the amount of any Appraisal Reduction Amount (which notification shall be made
by delivery of the CREFC® Loan Periodic Update File in accordance with Section 3.13(a)), any Collateral Deficiency
Amount and any resulting Cumulative Appraisal Amount allocated to each Mortgage Loan, AB Modified Loan or Serviced Whole Loan if
any (which notification shall be satisfied through the delivery of such information included in the CREFC® Appraisal
Reduction Amount Template included in the CREFC® Investor Reporting Package (or such other form as agreed to by
the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer), which shall be delivered simultaneously with the CREFC®
Loan Periodic Update File in accordance with Section 3.13(a)). Based on information in its possession, the Certificate Administrator
shall determine from time to time which Class of Certificates is the Controlling Class. Promptly upon its determination of a change
in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating
Advisor of such event, including the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Certificateholder (the cost
of obtaining such information from the Depository being an expense of the Trust).


 


(b)          The
Holders of the majority (by Certificate Balance) of any Class of Control Eligible Certificates whose aggregate Certificate Balance,
as notionally reduced by Appraisal Reduction Amounts or Collateral Deficiency Amounts allocated thereto, is less than 25% of the
initial Certificate Principal Balance of such Class (such Class, an “Appraised-Out Class”) as a result of an
allocation of an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount in respect of such Class shall have the right, at their
sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order a second Appraisal of any Mortgage Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction
Event has occurred or as to which there exists a Collateral Deficiency Amount (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”),
and use its reasonable efforts to obtain an Appraisal prepared on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser reasonably acceptable
to the Special Servicer within 60 days from


 






    -383-


     


    

 


receipt
of the Requesting Holders’ written request. Any Appraised-Out Class for which the Requesting Holders are challenging the
Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount determination shall not exercise any rights of the Controlling Class
until such time, if any, as such Class is reinstated as the Controlling Class and the rights of the Controlling Class will be
exercised by the most senior Control Eligible Certificates, if any, during such period.


 


In addition, the Requesting
Holders of any Appraised-Out Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order an additional
appraisal of any Serviced Mortgage Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred or as to which there exists a Collateral
Deficiency Amount if an event has occurred at or with regard to the related Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties that would
have a material effect on its appraised value, and the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to obtain an Appraisal prepared
on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser reasonably acceptable to the Special Servicer within 60 days from receipt of
the Requesting Holders’ written request; provided that the Special Servicer shall not be required to obtain such appraisal
if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that no events at or with regard to the related Mortgaged Property or
Mortgaged Properties have occurred that would have a material effect on the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property or
Mortgaged Properties. The right of the holders of an Appraised-Out Class to require the Special Servicer to order an additional
appraisal as described in this paragraph shall be limited to no more frequently than once in any 9-month period with respect to
any Mortgage Loan.


 


Upon receipt of any such
second Appraisal, the Special Servicer shall determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, whether, based on its assessment
of such second Appraisal, any recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount is warranted and,
if so warranted, shall direct the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer shall, recalculate such Appraisal Reduction Amount
or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based upon such second Appraisal and receipt of information reasonably requested
by the Master Servicer from the Special Servicer, to the extent such information is in the possession of the Special Servicer,
and is reasonably necessary to make such recalculation. If required by any such recalculation, the Appraised-Out Class shall be
reinstated as the Controlling Class.


 


Appraisals that are permitted
to be obtained by the Special Servicer at the request of holders of an Appraised-Out Class shall be in addition to any appraisals
that the Special Servicer may otherwise be required to obtain in accordance with the Servicing Standard or this Agreement without
regard to any appraisal requests made by any holder of an Appraised-Out Class.


 


(c)          An
appraisal for any Mortgage Loan that has not been brought current for at least three consecutive Periodic Payments (or paid in
full, liquidated, repurchased or otherwise disposed of) will be updated every 9 months for so long as an Appraisal Reduction Event
or Collateral Deficiency Amount exists.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, within 60 days after an Appraisal Reduction Event (i) with respect to Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced
Companion Loans having a Stated Principal Balance of $2,000,000 or higher, the Special Servicer shall order and use efforts consistent
with the Servicing Standard to obtain an Updated


 






    -384-


     


    

 


Appraisal
or (ii) with respect to Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans having a Stated Principal Balance of
less than $2,000,000, the Special Servicer, at its option, shall (A) provide a Small Loan Appraisal Estimate within the same time
period as an Appraisal would otherwise be required and such Small Loan Appraisal Estimate shall be used in lieu of an Updated
Appraisal to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount for such Mortgage Loans or applicable Serviced Whole Loans; or (B) order
and use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain an Updated Appraisal.


 


(e)          The
Special Servicer, upon reasonable request, shall deliver to the Master Servicer any information in the Special Servicer’s
possession reasonably required to determine, calculate, redetermine or recalculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount.


 


On the first Determination
Date occurring at least 10 Business Days after the later of (i) date the Master Servicer receives from the Special Servicer the
related Updated Appraisal or the Special Servicer’s Small Loan Appraisal Estimate, as applicable, and (ii) the occurrence
of an Appraisal Reduction Event, the Master Servicer shall adjust the Appraisal Reduction Amount to take into account such Updated
Appraisal or Small Loan Appraisal Estimate, as applicable and any information reasonably requested by the Master Servicer from
the Special Servicer, to the extent such information is in the possession of the Special Servicer, necessary to calculate the Appraisal
Reduction Amount. Each Appraisal Reduction Amount shall also be adjusted to take into account any subsequent Small Loan Appraisal
Estimate or Updated Appraisal, as applicable, and any letter updates, as of the date of each such subsequent Small Loan Appraisal
Estimate, Updated Appraisal or letter update, as applicable, and receipt of information reasonably requested by the Master Servicer
from the Special Servicer, to the extent such information is in the possession of the Special Servicer and is reasonably necessary
to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount. Such report shall also be forwarded by the Master Servicer, to the extent the related
Serviced Companion Loan has been included in a securitization transaction, to the master servicer of such securitization into which
the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold, or to the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan by the Master Servicer.


 


Section 4.09 Grantor
Trust Reporting. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall maintain adequate books and records to account for the separate
entitlements of the Grantor Trust.


 


(b)          The
parties intend that the Grantor Trust shall be treated as a “grantor trust” under the Code, and the provisions thereof
shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall vary the assets of the Grantor Trust so as to take advantage
of market fluctuations or so as to improve the rate of return of the Grantor Trust Certificates, and shall otherwise comply with
Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4(c). Within 30 days of the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall obtain a taxpayer
identification number for the Grantor Trust on IRS Form SS-4. The Certificate Administrator shall file or cause to be filed with
the IRS Form 1041 (or, if the Grantor Trust is a WHFIT, information will be provided on Form 1099) or such other form as may be
applicable and shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holders of the Grantor Trust Certificates their allocable share of
income and expense with respect to the related Specific Grantor Trust Assets with the corresponding alphabetic or alphanumeric
designation and proceeds thereof, as such amounts are received or accrue, as applicable.


 






    -385-


     


    

 


(c)          (i)
The Grantor Trust will be treated as a WHFIT that is a WHMT. The Certificate Administrator shall report as required under the WHFIT
Regulations to the extent such information as is reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to do so is provided
to the Certificate Administrator on a timely basis. The Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to assume that DTC is the
only “middleman” as defined by the WHFIT Regulations unless the Depositor provides the Certificate Administrator with
the identities of other “middlemen” that are Certificateholders. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to
rely on the first sentence of this Section 4.09(c)(i), and shall be entitled to indemnification in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement in the event that the IRS makes a determination that any such notice is incorrect.


 


(ii)          The
Certificate Administrator, in its discretion, shall report required WHFIT information using either the cash or accrual method,
except to the extent the WHFIT Regulations specifically require a different method. The Certificate Administrator shall be under
no obligation to determine whether any Certificateholder uses the cash or accrual method. The Certificate Administrator shall make
available (via the Certificate Administrator’s Website) WHFIT information to Certificateholders annually. In addition, the
Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible or liable for providing subsequently amended, revised or updated information
to any Certificateholder, unless requested by the Certificateholder.


 


(iii)          The
Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for failure to meet the reporting requirements of the WHFIT Regulations nor for any
penalties thereunder if such failure is due to: (i) the lack of reasonably necessary information being provided to the Certificate
Administrator or (ii) incomplete, inaccurate or untimely information being provided to the Certificate Administrator. Each owner
of a class of securities representing, in whole or in part, beneficial ownership of an interest in a WHFIT, by acceptance of its
interest in such class of securities, will be deemed to have agreed to provide the Certificate Administrator with information regarding
any sale of such securities, including the price, amount of proceeds and date of sale. Absent receipt of information regarding
any sale of Certificates, including the price, amount of proceeds and date of sale from the beneficial owner thereof or the Depositor,
the Certificate Administrator shall assume there is no secondary market trading of WHFIT interests.


 


(iv)          To
the extent required by the WHFIT Regulations, the Certificate Administrator shall use reasonable efforts to publish on the Certificate
Administrator’s Website the CUSIPs for the Certificates that represent ownership of a WHFIT. The CUSIPs so published will
represent the Rule 144A CUSIPs. The Certificate Administrator shall make reasonable good faith efforts to keep the website accurate
and updated to the extent CUSIPs have been received. Absent the receipt of a CUSIP, the Certificate Administrator will use a reasonable
identifier number in lieu of a CUSIP. The Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for investor reporting delays that result
from the receipt of inaccurate or untimely CUSIP information.


 


Section 4.10 Secure
Data Room. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall create the Secure Data Room and the Depositor shall, upon receipt
of each Mortgage Loan Seller’s Diligence File Certification, deliver to the Certificate Administrator within 120 days following
the Closing Date an electronic copy of the Diligence Files for the Mortgage Loans that have been


 






    -386-


     


    

 


uploaded
by the Mortgage Loan Sellers to the Intralinks Site. Upon receipt thereof, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly upload
the contents of each Diligence File to the Secure Data Room. Access to the Secure Data Room shall be granted by the Certificate
Administrator to (i) the Asset Representations Reviewer and (ii) any other Person at the direction of the Depositor, in each case,
upon the occurrence of an Affirmative Asset Review Vote and receipt by the Certificate Administrator of a certification substantially
in the form of Exhibit KK hereto (which shall be sent via email to trustadministrationgroup@wellsfargo.com or submitted
electronically via the Certificate Administrator’s website). In no case whatsoever shall Certificateholders be permitted
to access the Secure Data Room. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to post
any documents or information to the Secure Data Room other than the contents of the Diligence Files initially delivered to it
by the Depositor.


 


(b)          The
Certificate Administrator shall not have any obligation or duty to verify, review, confirm or otherwise determine whether the type,
number or contents of any Diligence File delivered to the Certificate Administrator is accurate, complete, or relates to the transaction
or confirm that all documents and information constituting any Diligence File have actually been delivered to the Certificate Administrator.
In no case shall the Certificate Administrator be deemed to have obtained actual or constructive knowledge of the contents of,
or information contained in, any Diligence File by virtue of posting such Diligence File to the Secure Data Room. In the event
that any document or information is posted in error, the Certificate Administrator may remove such document or information from
the Secure Data Room. The Certificate Administrator shall not have any obligation to produce physical or electronic copies of any
document or information provided to it for posting to the Secure Data Room. The Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible
or held liable for any other Person’s use or dissemination of the documents or information contained on the Secure Data Room;
provided that such event or occurrence is not also a result of its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The
Certificate Administrator shall not be required to restrict access to the Secure Data Room on a loan-by-loan basis and any Person
with access to the Secure Data Room shall covenant to access only the information necessary to perform its duties and responsibilities
under this Agreement.


 


(c)          Upon
the resignation or removal of the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 8.07, the Certificate Administrator shall
transfer electronic copies of the Diligence Files to a successor certificate administrator designated in writing by the Depositor,
and all costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the Diligence Files shall be payable as part of the costs and expenses
associated with the transfer of its responsibilities upon the resignation or removal of the Certificate Administrator pursuant
to Section 8.07. Following the date on which any Mortgage Loan is paid in full, liquidated, repurchased or otherwise removed
from the Trust, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may (but shall not be obligated to) direct the Certificate
Administrator in writing to delete the Diligence File related to such Mortgage Loan from the Secure Data Room; provided
that absent such direction, the Certificate Administrator shall not be obligated to delete any Diligence File from the Secure Data
Room. Following the termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.01, the Certificate Administrator shall be permitted
to delete all files from the Secure Data Room. Upon deletion pursuant to this Section 4.10, in no event shall the Certificate
Administrator be obligated to reproduce or retrieve such deleted files.

                                         Denomination of each Class of the Class V1 Certificates shown in the table above represents
                                         the maximum Certificate Balance of such Class that may be issued on the Closing Date
                                         in an exchange pursuant to Section 5.09.



 


		(2)	The Aggregate
                                         Denomination of the Class V2 Certificates shown in the table above represents the maximum
                                         Certificate Balance of such Class that could be issued on the Closing Date.



 


Each Certificate will
share ratably in all rights of the related Class.


 


The Class S and Class
R Certificates will each be issuable in one or more Individual Certificates in minimum denominations of 5% Percentage Interests
and integral multiples of a 1% Percentage Interest in excess thereof and together aggregating the entire 100% Percentage Interest
in each such Class.


 


The Global Certificates
shall be issued as one or more certificates registered in the name of a nominee designated by the Depository, and Certificate Owners
shall hold interests in the Global Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the Depository in the minimum Denominations
and aggregate Denominations and Classes as set forth above.

    -389-


     


    

 


(b)          Except
insofar as pertains to any Individual Certificate, the Trust Fund, the Certificate Administrator, the Paying Agent and the Trustee
may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the Global Certificates and the giving of notice to Holders thereof)
deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the Global Certificates for
the purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder; provided, that, for purposes of transmitting communications
pursuant to Section 5.05(a) of this Agreement, to the extent that the Depositor has provided the Certificate Administrator
with the names of Certificate Owners (even if such Certificateholders hold their Certificates through the Depository) the Certificate
Administrator shall provide such information to such Certificate Owners directly. The rights of Certificate Owners with respect
to Global Certificates shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificateholders and the Depository
and Depository Participants. Except as set forth in Section 5.01(e) below, Certificate Owners of Global Certificates shall
not be entitled to physical certificates for the Global Certificates as to which they are the Certificate Owners. Requests and
directions from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Global Certificates shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are
made with respect to different Certificate Owners. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 5.01
of this Agreement and Applicable Procedures, the holder of a beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate may request that
the Certificate Administrator cause the Depository (or any Agent Member) to notify the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate
Custodian in writing of a request for transfer or exchange of such beneficial interest for an Individual Certificate or Certificates.
Upon receipt of such a request and payment by the related Certificate Owner of any attendant expenses, the Certificate Administrator
shall cause the issuance and delivery of such Individual Certificates. The Certificate Registrar may establish a reasonable record
date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders and give notice to the Depository of such
record date. Without the written consent of the Certificate Registrar, no Global Certificate may be transferred by the Depository
except to a successor Depository that agrees to hold the Global Certificates for the account of the Certificate Owners.


 


(c)          Any
of the Certificates may be issued with appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and variations, and may have imprinted
or otherwise reproduced thereon such legend or legends, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, as may be required
to comply with any law or with rules or regulations pursuant thereto, or with the rules of any securities market in which the Certificates
are admitted to trading, or to conform to general usage.


 


(d)          The
Global Certificates (i) shall be delivered by the Certificate Registrar to the Depository or, pursuant to the Depository’s
instructions on behalf of the Depository to, and deposited with, the Certificate Custodian, and in either case shall be registered
in the name of Cede & Co. and (ii) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:


 


“Unless this certificate is presented
by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to the Certificate
Registrar for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede &
Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to


 






    -390-


     


    

 


Cede & Co. or
to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE
OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.”


 


The Global Certificates
may be deposited with such other Depository as the Certificate Registrar may from time to time designate, and shall bear such legend
as may be appropriate.


 


(e)          If
(i) the Depository advises the Certificate Administrator in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able properly to
discharge its responsibilities as Depository, and the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor are unable to locate a qualified
successor within 90 days of such notice or (ii) the Trustee has instituted or has been directed to institute any judicial proceeding
to enforce the rights of the Holders of such Class and the Trustee has been advised by counsel that in connection with such proceeding
it is necessary or appropriate for the Certificate Registrar to obtain possession of the Certificates of such Class, the Certificate
Administrator shall notify the affected Certificate Owner or Owners through the Depository of the occurrence of such event and
the availability of Individual Certificates to such Certificate Owners requesting them. Upon surrender to the Certificate Administrator
of Global Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer,
the Certificate Administrator shall issue the Individual Certificates. Neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the
Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer nor the Depositor shall be liable for any actions taken by the
Depository or its nominee, including, without limitation, any delay in delivery of such instructions. Upon the issuance of Individual
Certificates, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and the Master Servicer shall recognize the
Holders of Individual Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.


 


(f)          If
the Trustee, its agents, the Certificate Administrator, its agents or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer have instituted or
have been directed to institute any judicial proceeding in a court to enforce the rights of the Certificateholders under the Certificates,
and the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer have been advised by counsel that in
connection with such proceeding it is necessary or appropriate for the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer to obtain possession of the Certificates, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer may in their sole discretion determine that the Certificates represented by the Global Certificates shall
no longer be represented by such Global Certificates. In such event, the Certificate Administrator or the Authenticating Agent
will execute and authenticate and the Certificate Registrar will deliver, in exchange for such Global Certificates, Individual
Certificates (and if the Certificate Administrator or the Certificate Custodian has in its possession Individual Certificates previously
executed, the Authenticating Agent will authenticate and the Certificate Registrar will deliver such Certificates) in a Denomination
equal to the aggregate Denomination of such Global Certificates.


 


(g)          If
the Trust Fund ceases to be subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Certificate Administrator shall make available
to each Holder and Certificate Owner of a Class of Certificates, upon request of such a Holder, information, to the extent such


 






    -391-


     


    

 


information
is in its possession, substantially equivalent in scope to the information currently filed by the Certificate Administrator with
the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, plus additional information required to be provided for securities qualifying for
resales under Rule 144A under the Act.


 


For so long as the Class
S or Class R Certificates remain outstanding, none of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall take any action
which would cause the Trust Fund to fail to be subject to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.


 


(h)          Each
Certificate may be printed or in typewritten or similar form, and each Certificate shall, upon original issue, be executed and
authenticated by the Certificate Administrator or the Authenticating Agent and delivered to, or at the order of, the Depositor.
All Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Certificate Administrator or Authenticating
Agent by an authorized officer or signatory. Certificates bearing the signature of an individual who was at any time the proper
officer or signatory of the Certificate Administrator or Authenticating Agent shall bind the Certificate Administrator or Authenticating
Agent, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such office or position prior to the delivery of such Certificates
or did not hold such office or position at the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under
this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication in the form
set forth in Exhibits A-1 through A-33 executed by the Authenticating Agent by manual signature, and such certificate
of authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.


 


(i)          If,
in connection with any Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall have reported the amount of an anticipated distribution
to the Depository based on the expected receipt of any monthly payment based on information set forth in any report of the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, or any other monthly payment, Balloon Payment or prepayment expected to be or which is paid on
the last two Business Days preceding such Distribution Date, and the related Borrower fails to make such payments at such time,
the Certificate Administrator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Depository to make the revised distribution
on a timely basis on such Distribution Date. The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator (in any of its capacities), the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be liable or held responsible
for any resulting delay (or claims by the Depository resulting therefrom) in the making of such distribution to Certificateholders.
Any out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Certificate Administrator as a consequence of a Borrower failing to make such payments
shall be reimbursable to the Certificate Administrator as an expense of the Trust Fund.


 


(j)          During
the Transfer Restriction Period, each Retained Certificate shall only be held as Definitive Certificates in the Retained Interest
Safekeeping Account by the Certificate Administrator (and each Retaining Party’s respective interest shall be tracked in
the form of an entry in the Certificate Administrator’s trust accounting system under the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account),
for the benefit of the Holder of the related Certificate. The Certificate Administrator shall hold such Retained Certificates in
safekeeping and shall release the same only upon receipt of (i) written instructions from the holder of the Retained Certificates
and the Retaining Sponsor, and in accordance with any authentication procedures as may be


 






    -392-


     


    

 


utilized
by the Certificate Administrator and in accordance with this Agreement, and
(ii) any certifications or other requirements governing transfers of the Retained Certificate required under Section 5.02(m).
There shall be, and hereby is, established by the Certificate Administrator an account which will be designated the “Retained
Interest Safekeeping Account” and into which the Retained Certificates shall be held and which shall be governed by and
subject to this Agreement. In addition, on and after the date hereof, the Certificate Administrator may establish any number of
subaccounts to the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account for each Retaining Party. The Retained Certificates to be delivered in
physical form to the Certificate Administrator shall be delivered as set forth herein. No amounts distributable to the Retained
Certificates shall be remitted to the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, but shall be remitted directly to each Retaining
Party in accordance with written instructions provided separately by each Retaining Party to the Certificate Administrator. Under
no circumstances by virtue of safekeeping the Retained Certificates shall the Certificate Administrator be obligated to bring
legal action or institute proceedings against any person on behalf of the Retaining Parties. During the Transfer Restriction Period
and for such longer time as the Retaining Parties may request, the Certificate Administrator shall hold the Retained Certificates
in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons at the below location, or any other location; provided the Certificate
Administrator has given notice to each of the Retaining Parties of such new location:


 


Wells Fargo Bank NA





Attn: Security Control
and Transfer (SCAT) - MAC N9345-010





425 E Hennepin Avenue





Minneapolis, MN 55414


 


On the Closing Date,
the Certificate Administrator shall deliver written confirmation to the Depositor, the Retaining Sponsor and the Third-Party Purchaser
substantially in the form of Exhibit MM to this Agreement evidencing its receipt of the Retained Certificates.


 


The Certificate Administrator
shall make available to the VRR Retaining Party its respective account information as mutually agreed upon by the Certificate Administrator
and the VRR Retaining Party, and in accordance with the Certificate Administrator’s policies and procedures. Any transfer
of a Certificate evidencing the VRR Interest shall be subject to this Article V. During the Transfer Restriction Period,
unless the Retaining Sponsor and the Depositor otherwise consent in writing, the Certificate Administrator shall not permit any
Person to copy (other than for internal purposes), and shall not itself provide to any Person copies of, the executed Certificates
held by it in the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account.


 


Section 5.02 Registration,
Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall keep or cause to be kept at its offices
books (the “Certificate Register”) for the registration, transfer and exchange of Certificates (the Certificate
Administrator, in such capacity, being the “Certificate Registrar”). The Depositor, the Trustee, the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have the right to inspect the Certificate Register or to obtain a copy thereof at all
reasonable times, and to rely conclusively upon a certificate of the Certificate Registrar as to the information set forth in
the Certificate Register. The names and addresses of all Certificateholders and the names and addresses of the transferees of
any Certificates shall be registered in the Certificate Register; provided, in no event shall the Certificate Registrar
be required to maintain in the Certificate Register the names of the


 






    -393-


     


    

 


individual
Participants holding beneficial interests in the Trust Fund through the Depository. The Person in whose name any Certificate is
so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and Holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the Depositor,
Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, any Paying Agent and
any agent of any of them shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. An Individual Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon the surrender of such Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements of Section 5.01(h) and
Sections 5.02(c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) of this Agreement. Upon request
of the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar shall provide the Certificate Administrator with the names, addresses
and Percentage Interests of the Holders. In its capacity as Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible
for, among other things, holding each HRR Certificate and each Certificate evidencing the VRR Interest as Individual Certificates
on behalf of each Holder of such Certificates in accordance with Section 5.01(j).


 


(b)          Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Individual Certificate, subject to the requirements of Sections 5.02(c), (d),
(e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and
the Authenticating Agent shall duly authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates
in Denominations of a like aggregate Denomination as the Individual Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered
by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with Section 5.02(e) of this Agreement. Each Certificate surrendered for registration
of transfer shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Certificate Registrar. Each new Certificate issued pursuant to
this Section 5.02 shall be registered in the name of any Person as the transferring Holder may request, subject to the provisions
of Sections 5.01(h) and 5.02(c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) of this
Agreement.


 


(c)          In
addition to the provisions of Sections 5.01(h) and (j) and 5.02(d), (e), (f), (g), (h)
and (i) of this Agreement and the rules of the Depository, the exchange, transfer and registration of transfer of Private
Certificates that are Individual Certificates or beneficial interests in the Private Global Certificates shall be subject to the
following restrictions:


 


(i)          Transfers
between Holders of Individual Certificates. With respect to the transfer and registration of transfer of an Individual Certificate
representing an interest in a Class of Private Certificates to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of an Individual Certificate
(other than transfers of the Class S or Class R Certificates, which may be made only in accordance with Section 5.02(i)
of this Agreement, and transfers of any HRR Certificates, any Class V1 Certificate or any Certificate constituting the VRR Interest,
which may only be made in accordance with Section 5.02(c)(vi) of this Agreement and during the Transfer Restriction Period
in accordance with Section 5.01(j)):


 


(A)          Other
than the initial transfer from the Initial Purchasers to an initial investor, the Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer
of such Individual Certificate if the requested transfer is being made by a transferee who has provided the Certificate Registrar
with an Investment Representation Letter substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to this Agreement (an “Investment


 






    -394-


     


    

 


Representation Letter”), to the effect that the transfer is being made to a Qualified Institutional Buyer in accordance
with Rule 144A;


 


(B)          The
Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of such Individual Certificate pursuant to Regulation S after the expiration
of the Restricted Period if (1) the transferor has provided the Certificate Registrar with a Regulation S Transfer Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement (a “Regulation S Transfer Certificate”), and
(2) the transferee furnishes to the Certificate Registrar an Investment Representation Letter; or


 


(C)          The
Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of such Individual Certificate if prior to the transfer such transferee furnishes
to the Certificate Registrar (1) an Investment Representation Letter to the effect that the transfer is being made to an Institutional
Accredited Investor or to an Affiliated Person in accordance with an applicable exemption under the Act, and (2) in the case of
a transfer to an Affiliated Person, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such transfer is in compliance
with the Act;


 


and, in each case, the Certificate
Registrar shall register the transfer of such Individual Certificate only if prior to the transfer the transferee furnishes to
the Certificate Registrar a written undertaking by the transferor to reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs incurred by it in connection
with the proposed transfer. In addition, the Certificate Registrar may, as a condition of the registration of any such transfer,
require the transferor to furnish such other certificates, legal opinions or other information (at the transferor’s expense)
as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably require to confirm that the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption
from, or in a commercial mortgage-backed securitization transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Act and
other applicable laws.


 


(ii)          Transfers
within the Private Global Certificates. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Private Global Certificate
remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository, transfers within such Global Certificate shall only be made
in accordance with this Section 5.02(c)(ii).


 


(A)          Rule
144A Global Certificate to Regulation S Global Certificate During the Restricted Period. If, during the Restricted Period,
a Certificate Owner of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Certificate wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in
such Rule 144A Global Certificate to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the related

a certificate in the form of Exhibit I to this Agreement given by the Certificate Owner of such interest, the Certificate
Registrar shall instruct the Depository or the Certificate Custodian, as applicable, to reduce the Denomination of the Rule 144A

(iii)          Transfers
from the Private Global Certificates to Individual Certificates. Any and all transfers from a Private Global Certificate to
a transferee wishing to take delivery in the form of an Individual Certificate will require the transferee to take delivery


 






    -397-


     


    

 


subject
to the restrictions on the transfer of such Individual Certificate described in a legend set forth on the face of such Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement (the “Securities Legend”), and such transferee
agrees that it will transfer such Individual Certificate only as provided therein and herein. No such transfer shall be made and
the Certificate Registrar shall not register any such transfer unless such transfer is made in accordance with this Section
5.02(c)(iii).


 


(A)          Transfers
of a beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate to an Institutional Accredited Investor will require delivery in the form
of an Individual Certificate and the Certificate Registrar shall register such transfer only upon compliance with the provisions
of Section 5.02(c)(i)(C) of this Agreement.


 


(B)          Transfers
of a beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate to a Qualified Institutional Buyer or a Regulation S Investor wishing
to take delivery in the form of an Individual Certificate will be registered by the Certificate Registrar only upon compliance
with the provisions of Section 5.02(c)(i)(A) or (B) of this Agreement, respectively.


 


(C)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no transfer of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Certificate to an Individual Certificate pursuant
to Subparagraph (B) above shall be made prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period.


 


Upon acceptance for exchange
or transfer of a beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate for an Individual Certificate, as provided herein, the Certificate
Registrar shall endorse on the schedule affixed to the related Private Global Certificate (or on a continuation of such schedule
affixed to such Private Global Certificate and made a part thereof) an appropriate notation evidencing the date of such exchange
or transfer and a decrease in the Denomination of such Private Global Certificate equal to the Denomination of such Individual
Certificate issued in exchange therefor or upon transfer thereof. Unless determined otherwise by the Certificate Registrar and
the Depositor in accordance with applicable law, an Individual Certificate issued upon transfer of or exchange for a beneficial
interest in the Private Global Certificate shall bear the Securities Legend.


 


(iv)          Transfers
of Individual Certificates to the Private Global Certificates. If a Holder of an Individual Certificate wishes at any time
to transfer such Certificate to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the related
Regulation S Global Certificate or the related Rule 144A Global Certificate, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with
the Applicable Procedures and this Section 5.02(c)(iv) (other than with respect to any Retained Certificate during the Transfer
Restriction Period, which shall be held as an Individual Certificate pursuant to Section 5.01(j)). Upon receipt by the Certificate
Registrar at the Corporate Trust Office of (l) the Individual Certificate to be transferred with an assignment and transfer pursuant
to Section 5.05(a) of this Agreement, (2) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from an
Agent Member directing the Certificate Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account
a beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Certificate or such Rule 144A Global Certificate, as the case may be,


 






    -398-


     


    

 


in an amount
equal to the Denomination of the Individual Certificate to be so transferred, (3) a written order given in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of the Agent Member and, in the case of any transfer pursuant
to Regulation S, the Euroclear or Clearstream account, as the case may be, to be credited with such beneficial interest, and (4)
(x) an Investment Representation Letter from the transferee and, if delivery is to be taken in the form of a beneficial interest
in the Regulation S Global Certificate, a Regulation S Transfer Certificate from the transferor or (y) an Investment Representation
Letter from the transferee to the effect that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Buyer if delivery is to be taken in
the form of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall cancel such Individual Certificate,
execute and deliver a new Individual Certificate for the Denomination of the Individual Certificate not so transferred, registered
in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s transferee (as instructed by the Holder), and the Certificate Registrar shall instruct
the Depository or the Certificate Custodian, as applicable, to increase the Denomination of the Regulation S Global Certificate
or the Rule 144A Global Certificate, as the case may be, by the Denomination of the Individual Certificate to be so transferred,
and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions who, in the case of any increase
in the Regulation S Global Certificate during the Restricted Period, shall be an Agent Member acting for or on behalf of Euroclear
or Clearstream, or both, as the case may be, a corresponding Denomination of the Rule 144A Global Certificate or the Regulation
S Global Certificate, as the case may be.


 


It is the intent of the foregoing
that under no circumstances may an Institutional Accredited Investor that is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer take delivery
in the form of a beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate, other than the initial transfer from the Initial Purchasers
to an initial investor.


 


(v)          All
Transfers. An exchange of a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate for an Individual Certificate or Certificates, an exchange
of an Individual Certificate or Certificates for a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate and an exchange of an Individual
Certificate or Certificates for another Individual Certificate or Certificates (in each case, whether or not such exchange is made
in anticipation of subsequent transfer, and, in the case of the Global Certificates, so long as the Global Certificates remain
outstanding and are held by or on behalf of the Depository), may be made only in accordance with this Section 5.02 and in
accordance with the rules of the Depository and Applicable Procedures (other than with respect to any Retained Certificate during
the Transfer Restriction Period, which shall be held as an Individual Certificate pursuant to Section 5.01(j)).


 


(d)          If
Certificates are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Certificates not bearing the Securities Legend, the Certificates
so issued shall not bear the Securities Legend. If Certificates are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Certificates
bearing the Securities Legend, or if a request is made to remove the Securities Legend on a Certificate, the Certificates so issued
shall bear the Securities Legend, or the Securities Legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered
to the Certificate Registrar such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of counsel (at the


 






    -399-


     


    

 


expense of the party requesting
the removal of such legend) familiar with United States securities laws, as may be reasonably required by the Certificate Registrar,
that neither the Securities Legend nor the restrictions on transfers set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers of
any Certificate comply with the provisions of Rule 144A, Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Act, the Risk Retention Rule or that
such Certificate is not a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Act. Upon provision of such
satisfactory evidence, the Certificate Registrar shall execute and deliver a Certificate that does not bear the Securities Legend.


 


(e)          Subject
to the restrictions on transfer and exchange set forth in Section 5.01(i) and in this Section 5.02, the Holder of
any Individual Certificate may transfer or exchange the same in whole or in part (with a denomination equal to any authorized denomination)
by surrendering such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or at the office of any transfer agent appointed
as provided under this Agreement, together with an instrument of assignment or transfer (executed by the Holder or its duly authorized
attorney), in the case of transfer, and a written request for exchange, in the case of exchange. Following a proper request for
transfer or exchange, the Certificate Registrar shall, within five Business Days of such request if made at such office of the
Certificate Administrator or within ten Business Days if made at the office of a transfer agent (other than the Certificate Registrar),
execute and deliver at the office of the Certificate Administrator or at the office of such transfer agent, as the case may be,
to the transferee (in the case of transfer) or Holder (in the case of exchange) or send by first-class mail (at the risk of the
transferee in the case of transfer or Holder in the case of exchange) to such address as the transferee or Holder, as applicable,
may request, an Individual Certificate or Certificates, as the case may require, for a like aggregate Denomination and in such
Denomination or Denominations as may be requested. The presentation for transfer or exchange of any Individual Certificate shall
not be valid unless made at the office of the Certificate Administrator or at the office of a transfer agent by the registered
Holder in person, or by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact. The Certificate Registrar may decline to accept any request for an
exchange or registration of transfer of any Certificate during the period of 15 days preceding any Distribution Date.


 


(f)          An
Individual Certificate (other than an Individual Certificate issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate
pursuant to Section 5.01 of this Agreement) or a beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate may only be transferred
to Eligible Investors, as described herein. In the event that a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge
that such an Individual Certificate or beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate is being held by or for the benefit
of a Person who is not an Eligible Investor, or that such holding is unlawful under the laws of a relevant jurisdiction, then the
Certificate Registrar shall have the right to void such transfer, if permitted under applicable law, or to require the investor
to sell such Individual Certificate or beneficial interest in a Private Global Certificate to an Eligible Investor within fourteen
days after notice of such determination and each Certificateholder by its acceptance of a Certificate authorizes the Certificate
Registrar to take such action.


 


(g)          Subject
to the provisions of this Section 5.02 regarding transfer and exchange, transfers of the Global Certificates shall be limited
to transfers of such Global


 






    -400-


     


    

 


Certificates in whole, but not in part, to nominees of the Depository or to a successor of the Depository
or such successor’s nominee.


 


(h)          No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in this Section 5.02 other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited Investors, as provided
herein. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund
for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions,
submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided herein) incurred by the Certificate Registrar
in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


(i)          Subject
to Section 5.02(e) of this Agreement, transfers of the Class S or Class R Certificates may be made only in accordance with
this Section 5.02(i). The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Class R Certificate only if (x) the transferor
has advised the Certificate Registrar in writing that such Certificate is being transferred to a Qualified Institutional Buyer
and (y) prior to such transfer the transferee furnishes to the Certificate Registrar an Investment Representation Letter. The Certificate
Registrar shall register the transfer of a Class S Certificate only if (x) the transferor has advised the Certificate Registrar
in writing that such Certificate is being transferred to a Qualified Institutional Buyer or an Affiliated Person or an Institutional
Accredited Investor and (y) prior to such transfer the transferee furnishes to the Certificate Registrar an Investment Representation
Letter. In addition, the Certificate Registrar may as a condition of the registration of any such transfer require the transferor
to furnish such other certifications, legal opinions or other information (at the transferor’s expense) as it may reasonably
require to confirm that the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to,
the registration requirements of the Act and other applicable laws.


 


(j)          No
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class of Private Certificates or interest therein shall be made unless that
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Act and any
applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Act and such state securities laws. Neither the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar are obligated to register or qualify
the Private Certificates under the Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement
to permit the transfer of such Private Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder desiring to effect
such a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the
Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, against any loss, liability or expense that may result if the transfer is not so exempt
or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.


 


(k)          No
transfer of any Class E, Class X-E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class V1-E, Class V1-F, Class V1-G, Class V2, Class S or Class R Certificate
(each, a “Restricted Certificate”) shall be made to (i) an employee benefit plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility
provisions of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code, or a governmental plan, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA, or other plan subject
to any federal, state or local law (“Similar Law”)


 






    -401-


     


    

 


which
is to a material extent similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (each, a “Plan”) or (ii) a
collective investment fund whose underlying assets include Plan assets by reason of a Plan’s investment in the collective
investment fund (pursuant to U.S. Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA, other
than (with respect to transfer of Restricted Certificates other than the Class V2, Class S or Class R Certificates),
an insurance company using the assets of its general account under circumstances whereby such purchase and the subsequent holding
of such Certificate by such insurance company would be exempt from the “prohibited transaction” provisions of Sections
406 and 407 of ERISA and Code Section 4975 under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60, or a substantially similar exemption under
Similar Law. Except in connection with the transfer thereof by the Depositor or the Retaining Sponsor (provided that, in the case
of the Retaining Sponsor, such exception shall apply only with respect to the transfer thereof on the Closing Date), each prospective
transferee of a Restricted Certificate shall either (A) deliver to the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate
Administrator, a transfer or representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 to this Agreement, stating
that the prospective transferee is not and will not become a Person referred to in (i) or (ii) above or (B) if the transferee
is such an entity specified in (i) or (ii) above (except in the case of a Class V2, Class S or Class R Certificate,
which may not be transferred unless the transferee represents it is not such an entity), such entity, at its own expense, shall
provide any opinion of counsel, officers’ certificates or agreements as may be required by, and in form and substance satisfactory
to, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Registrar, to the effect that the purchase and holding of
the Certificates by or on behalf of a Plan will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction within the meaning
of Sections 406 and 407 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, and will not subject the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar to any obligation or liability. None of the Certificate Administrator or the Certificate Registrar shall register a
Class V2, Class S or Class R Certificate in any Person’s name unless such Person has provided the letter referred
to in clause (A) of the preceding sentence. The transferee of a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate that is a Restricted
Certificate shall be deemed to represent that it is not and will not become a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of any Plan or
using the assets of any Plan to acquire such interest other than (with respect to transfers of beneficial interests in Global
Certificates which are Restricted Certificates other than the Class V2, Class S or Class R Certificates) an insurance
company using the assets of its general account under circumstances whereby such transfer to such insurance company would be exempt
from the “prohibited transaction” provisions of Sections 406 and 407 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Sections
I and III of PTCE 95-60, or a substantially similar exemption under Similar Law. Any transfer of a Restricted Certificate that
would violate or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or Similar Law shall be
deemed absolutely null and void ab initio.


 


Each beneficial owner
of a Certificate or any interest therein that is a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (an “ERISA
Plan”, including any fiduciary purchasing Certificates on behalf of an ERISA Plan (“Plan Fiduciary”),

is independent of the Transaction Parties, and the Plan Fiduciary either: (a) is a bank as defined in Section 202 of the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”), or similar institution that is regulated and supervised and subject
to periodic examination by a State or Federal agency; (b) is an insurance carrier which is qualified under the laws of more than

or (e) has, and at all times that the ERISA Plan is invested in the Certificates will have, total assets of at least U.S. $50,000,000
under its management or control (provided that this clause (e) shall not be satisfied if the Plan Fiduciary is either (i) the owner
or a relative of the owner of an investing individual retirement account or (ii) a participant or beneficiary of the ERISA Plan
investing in the Certificates in such capacity);


 


(2) the Plan Fiduciary

or both, and is responsible for exercising independent judgment in evaluating the ERISA Plan’s acquisition of the Certificates;


 


(4) none of the Transaction
Parties has exercised any authority to cause the ERISA Plan to invest in the Certificates or

and (b) of the existence and nature of the Transaction Parties financial interests in the ERISA Plan’s acquisition of the
Certificates.

promulgated on April 8, 2016 (81 Fed. Reg. 20,997). If these regulations are revoked, repealed or no longer effective, these representations
shall be deemed to be no longer in effect.


 


(l)          Each
Person who has or acquires any Ownership Interest shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to
have agreed to be bound by the


 






    -403-

Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer to


 






    -404-


     


    

 


such proposed transferee
shall be effected and such proposed Transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, that the Certificate
Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed transferee is a Permitted

Neither the Certificate
Administrator nor the Certificate Registrar shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance
with any restriction or transfer imposed under Article V of this Agreement or under applicable law with respect to any transfer

the foregoing restrictions, and in any event not later than 60 days after a request for information from the transferor of such
Ownership Interest, or such agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator agree to furnish to the IRS and
the transferor of such Ownership Interest or such agent such information necessary to the application of Section 860E(e) of the
Code as may be required by the Code, including, but not limited to, the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions
with respect to such Class R Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such Transfer. At the election of the Certificate
Registrar and the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator may charge a reasonable
fee for computing and furnishing such information to the transferor or to such agent referred to above; provided that such
Persons shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.


 


(m)          At
all times, if a transfer of any Retained Certificate is to be made, then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such
transfer unless it receives (and, upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) (i) a certification from such Certificateholder’s
prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-3 or Exhibit C-5, as applicable, which
such certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor with a medallion stamp guarantee of the Retaining Sponsor, (ii)
a certification from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
C-4 or Exhibit C-6, as applicable, which such certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor with a medallion
stamp guarantee of the Retaining Sponsor, (iii) a W-9 completed by the
prospective Transferee, and (iv) wiring instructions and contact
information of the prospective Transferee. Upon receipt of the foregoing certifications, the Certificate Registrar shall,
subject to Section 5.01(j) and Section 5.02(a), reflect such Retained Certificate in the name of the prospective
Transferee. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a Retained Certificate be held as a Book-Entry Certificate during the
Transfer Restriction Period. After the Transfer Restriction Period, the Retained Certificates may be transferred subject to the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Article V. Any transfer of an interest in the Retained Certificates that is


 






    -405-


     


    

 


not
in compliance with this Section 5.02 shall be null and void ab initio to the extent permitted under applicable law.


 


Section 5.03 Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar,
or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii)
there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it and the Certificate
Administrator harmless, then, in the absence of actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Certificate Administrator or the Authenticating Agent shall execute
and authenticate and the Certificate Registrar shall deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of the same Class and of like tenor and Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any
new Certificate under this Section 5.03, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses
of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall
constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership of the corresponding interest in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued,
whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.


 


Section 5.04 Appointment
of Paying Agent. The Certificate Administrator may appoint a paying agent (a “Paying Agent”) for the
purpose of making distributions to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 of this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator
shall cause such Paying Agent, if other than the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, to execute and
deliver to the Master Servicer and the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Master Servicer and
the Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment to Certificateholders in trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums have been paid to the Certificateholders or disposed of as otherwise
provided herein. The initial Paying Agent shall be the Certificate Administrator. Except for the Certificate Administrator, as
the initial Paying Agent, the Paying Agent shall at all times be an entity having a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least
“A” from Fitch and an equivalent rating from KBRA (if rated by KBRA), or shall be otherwise acceptable to each Rating
Agency, as confirmed by a receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation.







 


Section 5.05 Access
to Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses; Special Notices. (a) If any Certifying Certificateholder (for purposes
of this Section 5.05, an “Applicant”) applies in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application

the Certificate Registrar shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of such request, afford such Certificateholder
(at such Certificateholder’s sole cost and expense) access during normal business hours to a current list of the Certificateholders
related to the Class of Certificates held by such Certificateholder.

    -406-


     


    

 


“Communication Request”) signed by an authorized representative of the Requesting Investor to the Certificate
Administrator. Any Communication Request shall contain the method other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners should use to

evidencing its beneficial ownership in such class of certificates: (A) a trade confirmation, (B) an account statement, (C) a medallion

acceptable to the Certificate Administrator that is similar to any of the documents identified in clauses (A) through (C). The
Certificate Administrator shall not be permitted to require any information other than the foregoing in verifying a Certificateholder’s
or Certificate Owner’s identity in connection with a Communication Request. Requesting Investors will be responsible for
their own expenses in making any Communication Request, but will not be required to bear any expenses of the Certificate Administrator.
Upon receipt of such request, the Certificate Administrator shall furnish or cause to be furnished to such Applicant a list of
the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date.


 


(b)          Every
Certificateholder, by receiving and holding its Certificate, agrees with the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Registrar
that the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Registrar shall not be held accountable in any way by reason of the disclosure
of any information as to the names and addresses of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such
information was derived.


 


(c)          Upon
the written request of any Certifying Certificateholder that (a) states that such Certificateholder desires the Certificate Administrator
to transmit a notice to all Certificateholders stating that such Certificateholder wishes to be contacted by other Certificateholders,
setting forth the relevant contact information and briefly stating the reason for the requested contact and (b) provides a copy
of the Special Notice which such Certificateholder proposes to transmit, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver such Special
Notice to all Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing on the Certificate Register. The costs and expenses of
the Certificate Administrator associated with delivering with any such Special Notice shall be borne by the party requesting such
Special Notice. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that neither the Certificate Administrator
nor the Certificate Registrar shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such Special Notice to Certificateholders,
regardless of the information set forth in such Special Notice.

by this Agreement to be given or taken by Certificateholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially
similar tenor signed by such Certificateholders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Certificate Administrator
and the Trustee and, when required, to the Master Servicer. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing

manner provided in this Section.


 


(b)          The
fact and date of the execution by any Certificateholder of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner
which the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee deems sufficient.


 


(c)          Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act by a Certificateholder shall bind every Holder
of every Certificate issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of
anything done, or omitted to be done, by the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee or the Master Servicer in reliance thereon,
whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Certificate.


 


(d)          The
Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or Certificate Registrar may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in
this Section 5.06 as it shall deem necessary.


 


Section 5.07 Rule
144A Information. The Certificate Administrator shall, upon request of any Certifying Certificateholder that is a Holder
of a Private Certificate or any beneficial owner of such a Certificate, furnish to such Holder or beneficial owner or a prospective
purchaser designated by such Holder or beneficial owner who is a Qualified Institutional Buyer the information required to be
delivered under Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act, to the extent such information has been provided to the Certificate Administrator
and has been identified as Rule 144A information (which shall include all information on the Certificate Administrator’s
Website and all information currently required to be made available to Certificateholders, as well as any other specifically identified
information herein), if at the time of such request periodic reports are not being filed with respect to the Trust under Section

Section 5.08 Voting
Procedures. With respect to any matters submitted to Certificateholders for a vote, the Certificate Administrator shall

with respect to Individual Certificates. In each case, such vote shall be administered in accordance with the following procedures,
unless different procedures are otherwise described herein with respect to a specific vote:


 


(a)          Any
matter submitted to Certificateholders for a vote shall be announced in a notice prepared by the Certificate Administrator. Such
notice shall include the record date determined by the Certificate Administrator for purposes of the vote and a voting deadline
which shall be no less than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is distributed. The notice
and related ballot shall be sent to Holders of Book-Entry Certificates through the Depository and by mail to the registered Holders
of Individual Certificates. In addition, the notice and related ballot shall be posted to the Certificate Administrator’s
Website. Notices delivered in this manner shall be considered delivered to all Holders regardless of whether any Holder actually
receives the notice and ballot.


 






    -408-


     


    


 


(b)          In
connection with any vote administered pursuant to this Agreement, voting Holders shall be required to certify their holdings in
the manner set forth on the ballot, unless a specific manner is otherwise provided herein. Holders may only vote in accordance
with their Voting Rights. Voting Rights with respect to any outstanding Class of Certificates shall be calculated by the Certificate
Administrator in accordance with the definition of Voting Rights as of the record date for the vote. Only Classes with an outstanding
Certificate Balance greater than zero as of the record date of the vote shall be permitted to vote. Once a Holder has cast its
vote, the vote may be changed or retracted on or before the vote deadline. Any changes or retractions shall be communicated by
the Certificateholder to the Certificate Administrator in writing on a ballot. After the vote deadline has passed, votes may not
be changed or retracted by any Holder unless the Holder wishing to change or retract its vote holds a sufficient portion of the
Voting Rights such that the Holder, by its vote alone, could approve or deny the proposition subject to a vote without taking
into consideration the votes cast by any other Holder. Transferees or purchasers of any Class of Certificates are subject to and
shall be bound by all votes of Holders initiated or conducted prior to its acquisition of such Certificate.


 


(c)          The
Certificate Administrator may take up to fifteen (15) Business Days to tabulate the results of any vote. The Certificate Administrator
shall use its reasonable efforts to resolve any illegible or incomplete ballots received prior to the voting deadline. Illegible
or incomplete ballots that are received on the voting deadline or that cannot be resolved by the voting deadline shall not be
counted. Promptly after the votes are tabulated, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare a notice announcing the results of
the vote. Such notice shall include the percentage of Voting Rights in favor of the proposition, the percentage against the proposition
and the percentage abstaining. In addition, the notice will announce whether the proposition has been adopted by Certificateholders.
The notice shall be distributed in accordance with the methods described in Section 5.08(a) above. The Certificate Administrator
shall also include such notice on the Form 10-D prepared in connection with the distribution period that corresponds with the
date such notice is distributed. All vote tabulations shall be final and the Certificate Administrator shall not, absent manifest
error, retabulate the votes or conduct a new vote for the same proposition.


 


(d)          Unless
otherwise paid for by any Holder pursuant to Section 8.01 or Section 8.02, or clause (e) below, any and all
reasonable expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering any vote shall be borne by the
Trust. The Certificate Administrator is under no obligation to advise Holders about the matter being voted on or answer questions
other than process-related questions regarding the administration of the vote.


 


(e)          If
any party to this Agreement believes a vote of Certificateholders is needed for some matter related to the administration of the
Trust that is not specifically contemplated herein, such party may request the Certificate Administrator to conduct a vote and
the Certificate Administrator will conduct the requested vote in accordance with these procedures. Unless specifically provided
herein, all such votes require a majority of Certificateholders to carry a proposition.


 


Section
5.09     Exchanges of Exchangeable Groups of Certificates. (a) The Grantor Trust shall be maintained
by the Certificate Administrator, on behalf of the Trustee, in part for the benefit of the Holders of the Class V1 and Class V2
Certificates. At all times, the


 






    -409-


     


    

 


Class
V1 Certificates shall collectively represent beneficial ownership interests in the Class V1 Percentage Interest of the VRR Specific
Grantor Trust Assets. At all times, the Class V2 Certificates shall represent beneficial ownership interests in the Class V2 Percentage
Interest of the VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets.


 


On
the Closing Date, the Grantor Trust shall initially issue the VRR Interest in the form of Class V2 Certificates with the respective
aggregate initial Certificate Balance set forth for such Class in the Preliminary Statement. In addition, on the Closing Date
pursuant to the GACC Purchase Agreement, the Depositor is assigning and transferring and otherwise conveying to DBNY, $40,426,662
initial Certificate Balance of the VRR Interest in the form of Class V2 Certificates (which assignment, transfer and conveyance
shall, solely for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Section 3(a) and Section 4(a)(3) of the Risk Retention
Rule, be deemed assigned, transferred and conveyed from the Depositor to GACC and from GACC to DBNY).


 


(b)          Following
the Closing Date and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.09(c), any Holder of Class V2 Certificates may exchange
some or all of those Certificates for Class V1 Certificates with the same aggregate principal balance as the surrendered Certificates
and representing the same Percentage Interest in each Class of the Class V1 Certificates, and any Holder of Class V1 Certificates
may exchange some or all of those Certificates representing the same Percentage interest in each Class of the Class V1 Certificates
for Class V2 Certificates with the same aggregate principal balance as the surrendered Certificates.


 


(c)          An
exchange of Exchangeable Certificates may only occur if the respective Certificates being surrendered and the respective Certificates
being received in such exchange have denominations no smaller than the minimum Denominations set forth in Section 5.01.
There shall be no limitation on the number of exchanges of Exchangeable Certificates authorized pursuant to this Section 5.09.
In addition, the Depositor shall have the right to make or cause exchanges on the Closing Date and shall deliver instructions
substantially in the form of Exhibit NN to the Certificate Administrator along with the original Certificate exchanged
(unless such exchanged Certificate was deemed issued).


 


Notwithstanding
the foregoing, however, during the VRR Interest Transfer Restriction Period, the Retaining Sponsor and the Depositor jointly may
(to the extent that they believe it to be necessary or reasonably appropriate to ensure compliance with Risk Retention Rule, including,
without limitation, based upon such future clarification and interpretation as may in the future be provided by the staff of any
Regulatory Agency), and each Holder of any Class V1 or Class V2 Certificate, by acceptance of its Certificates, is deemed to have
agreed that the Sponsor and the Depositor jointly may: (i) suspend or terminate the exchangeability feature of the Exchangeable
Certificates by written instrument, signed by both the Retaining Sponsor and the Depositor and sent to the Certificate Administrator,
with copies thereof to be sent by the Certificate Administrator to the other Holders of the Exchangeable Certificates, in which
case no exchange may be effected in accordance with this Section 5.09 during the period of the suspension or following
the effective date of the termination; and (ii) mandate that all Holders of the Class V1 Certificates surrender their Certificates
in exchange for Class V2 Certificates, by a written instrument, signed by both the Retaining Sponsor and the Depositor and sent
to the Certificate Administrator, with copies thereof to be sent by the Certificate Administrator to the


 






    -410-


     


    

 


Holders
(or, if applicable, the other Holders) of the Class V1 Certificates, in which case, with respect to any Holder’s Class V1
Certificates that are held in the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, the Certificate Administrator shall (within 10 Business
Days of its receipt of the written instrument described above in the clause (ii)) cancel such Class V1 Certificates and
execute and authenticate in the name of, and deposit in the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account for the benefit of, such Holder
Class V2 Certificates with the same aggregate principal balance as the cancelled Certificates, and with respect to any Holder’s
Class V1 Certificates that have been released from the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, such Holder shall (within 10 Business
Days of its receipt of a copy of the written instrument described above in this clause (ii)) surrender such Class V1 Certificates
in exchange for Class V2 Certificates having the same aggregate principal balance as the surrendered Certificates in accordance
with this Section 5.09 (provided that if any Holder fails to so surrender its Class V1 Certificates within such 10 Business
Day period, then the Certificate Administrator shall suspend all future distributions thereon until the exchange occurs, such
unmade distributions to be held by the Certificate Administrator without interest in the same manner as the distribution on any
Certificate that is not surrendered on the final Distribution Date and to be released only in connection with the required exchange).


 


(d)          For
all exchanges other than any exchange effectuated by the Depositor, the Retaining Sponsor or DBNY on the Closing Date, or any
exchange of Class V1 Certificates held in the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account as mandated by the Depositor and the Retaining
Sponsor, in any event pursuant to Section 5.09(c), in order to effect an exchange of an Exchangeable Group of Certificates,
the Certificateholder desiring to effect the exchange shall notify the Certificate Administrator in writing or by e-mail at cts.cmbs.bond.admin@wellsfargo.com
(with a subject line referencing “Benchmark 2018-B1” and setting forth the proposed Exchange Date) no later than
three (3) Business Days before the proposed exchange date (the “Exchange Date”). The Exchange Date may be any
Business Day other than the first or last Business Day of the month. An exchange notice must (i) be set forth on the applicable
Certificateholder’s letterhead, (ii) carry a medallion stamp guarantee and (iii) set forth the following information: the
CUSIP Number (if any) of each Certificate to be exchanged and each Certificate to be received; the original and outstanding principal
balance of the Certificates to be exchanged and the original and outstanding principal balance of the Certificates to be received;
the Certificateholder’s Depository participant number, if applicable; and the proposed Exchange Date. A notice shall become
irrevocable on the second (2nd) Business Day before the proposed Exchange Date. For so long as the Exchangeable Certificates being
surrendered are held in the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, the exchange shall be effected by the Certificate Administrator
cancelling the Certificates being surrendered and executing and authenticating in the name of, and depositing in the Retained
Interest Safekeeping Account for the benefit of, the applicable Certificateholder the Exchangeable Certificates to be received
thereby. For so long as the Exchangeable Certificates are held as Individual Certificates outside the Retained Interest Safekeeping
Account, the exchange shall be effected by the Certificate Administrator executing and authenticating in the name of, and delivering
to, the applicable Certificateholder the Exchangeable Certificates to be received thereby, but only upon receipt by the Certificate
Administrator of the Exchangeable Certificates to be surrendered (which Certificates the Certificate Administrator shall promptly
cancel). Following the end of the VRR Interest Transfer Restriction Period, if applicable, the Certificateholder and the Certificate
Registrar shall utilize the “deposit and withdrawal system” at the Depository to effect


 






    -411-


     


    

 


the
exchange of the applicable Certificates that are Global Certificates. If following the end of the VRR Interest Transfer Restriction
Period the Exchangeable Certificates are being held in book-entry format, then the Global Certificates for one Exchangeable Group
shall be exchangeable on the books of the Depository for the corresponding Global Certificates of the other Exchangeable Group,
by notice to the Certificate Administrator substantially in the form of Exhibit NN.


 


(e)          In
connection with any exchange of an Exchangeable Group of Certificates, (i) the Certificate Registrar shall reduce the outstanding
aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class or Classes comprising the Exchangeable Group of Certificates surrendered by the applicable
Holder on the Certificate Register and shall increase the outstanding aggregate Certificate Balance of the related Class or Classes
of the Exchangeable Group of Certificates received by such Holder in such exchange on the Certificate Register, (ii) the Certificate
Registrar shall reduce the initial Certificate Balance specified in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement, as applicable,
of the Class or Classes comprising the Exchangeable Group of Certificates surrendered by the applicable Holder on the Certificate
Register and shall increase the initial Certificate Balance specified in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement, as applicable,
of the related Class or Classes of the Exchangeable Group of Certificates received by such Holder, and (iii) in the case of any
related Global Certificate, if applicable following the end of the VRR Interest Transfer Restriction Period, the Certificate Registrar
or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall approve the instructions at the Depository and make appropriate notations
on the Global Certificate for each related Class of Certificates to reflect such reductions and increases. The Exchangeable Certificates
received in any exchange pursuant to this Section 5.09 shall have the same aggregate principal balance and be deemed to
have the same VRR Realized Losses previously allocated thereto as did the Exchangeable Certificates being surrendered, taking
into account distributions of principal and allocations of VRR Realized Losses in the month of the exchange. If Class V1 Certificates
are being received, the aggregate principal balance and the VRR Realized Losses deemed previously allocated thereto shall be allocated
among the respective Classes thereof in a manner reflective of what would have been the case if such Class V1 Certificates had
been issued on the Closing Date.


 


(f)          The
Certificate Administrator shall make the first distribution on a Certificate received by a Certificateholder in any exchange on
the Distribution Date in the month following the month of exchange to the Certificateholder of record as of the applicable Record
Date for such Certificate and Distribution Date. If an Exchange Date occurs in any month before the Distribution Date in such
month, then any distributions to be made on such Distribution Date on any Certificates surrendered in the exchange shall be so
made to the Certificateholder of record as of the applicable Record Date for such Certificates and such Distribution Date. Neither
the Certificate Administrator nor the Depositor shall have any obligation to ensure the availability of the applicable Certificates
in the market to accomplish any exchange.

and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents, and hold each of them harmless against
any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs,

fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith, fraud or negligence
of the Asset Representations Reviewer in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent
disregard by the Asset Representations Reviewer of its duties and obligations hereunder.


 


(b)          None
of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer shall
be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that (i) is not incidental to its respective duties
under this Agreement or (ii) in its opinion, may expose it to any expense or liability not recoverable from the Trust Fund; provided,
that each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor may in its discretion undertake

entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement) no

(c)          The
terms of this Section 6.03 shall survive the termination of any party hereto or of this Agreement.

the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any indemnification provisions in this Agreement providing that the Trust Fund or a party

Section
6.04     Limitation on Resignation of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating
Advisor; Termination of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor. (a) Each of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor may assign their respective rights and delegate their respective duties and obligations
under this Agreement in connection with the sale or transfer of a substantial portion of their commercial mortgage servicing,
asset management or (solely with respect to the Operating Advisor) commercial mortgage surveillance, portfolio, provided
that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment and delegation (A) shall be an established mortgage finance institution,
bank or mortgage servicing institution (or, in the case of the Operating Advisor, an Eligible Operating Advisor), organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia,
authorized under such laws to perform the duties of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor or a Person resulting

to each Rating Agency as confirmed in a Rating Agency Confirmation delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator
relating to the Certificates and Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any, (C) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator an agreement that contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and
observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor,
as applicable under this Agreement from and after the date of such agreement and (D) shall not be a Prohibited Party; (ii) the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement
that arose prior to the effective date of such assignment and delegation under this Section 6.04; (iii) the rate at which
the Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation or Operating Advisor Fee, as applicable (or any component thereof)
is calculated shall not exceed the rate then in effect and (iv) the resigning Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor,
as applicable, shall be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of each other party hereto and the Rating Agencies in
connection with such transfer. Upon acceptance of such assignment and delegation, the purchaser or transferee shall be the successor
Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor, as applicable, hereunder.


 


(b)          Except
as provided in Section 6.02 of this Agreement and this Section 6.04, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and
the Operating Advisor shall not resign from its respective obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (i) upon


 






    -417-


     


    

 


determination
that such duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law, (ii) in connection with the assignment of rights and
delegation of duties as set forth in Section 6.04(a), or (iii) solely with respect to the Operating Advisor, pursuant to
Section 6.04(e). Any such determination described in clause (i) above permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the resigning
Master Servicer’s, Special Servicer’s or Operating Advisor’s expense) to such effect delivered to the Trustee
and the Certificate Administrator.


 


(c)          The
Trustee shall be permitted to remove the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer upon a Master Servicer Termination Event or Special
Servicer Termination Event, as applicable. Without limiting the generality of the succeeding paragraph, no such removal shall
be effective unless and until (i) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has been paid any unpaid Servicing Compensation
or Special Servicing Compensation, as applicable, unreimbursed Advances (including Advance Interest Amounts thereon to which it
is entitled) and all other amounts to which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is entitled hereunder to the extent such
amounts accrue prior to such effective date and (ii) with respect to a resignation by the Master Servicer, the successor Master
Servicer has deposited into the Investment Accounts from which amounts were withdrawn to reimburse the terminated Master Servicer,
an amount equal to the amounts so withdrawn, to the extent such amounts would not have been permitted to be withdrawn except pursuant
to this paragraph, in which case the successor Master Servicer shall, immediately upon deposit, have the same right of reimbursement
or payment as the terminated Master Servicer had immediately prior to its termination without regard to the operation of this
paragraph.


 


(d)          No
resignation or removal of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor as contemplated by the preceding
paragraphs of this Section 6.04 shall become effective until (i) the Trustee or a successor Master Servicer, Special Servicer
or Operating Advisor shall have assumed the resigning or terminated Master Servicer’s, Special Servicer’s or Operating
Advisor’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder, (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have
filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 10.09, (iii) any other information required under Section 10.03
or Section 10.09 has been delivered to any applicable Other Depositor with respect to any related Companion Loan, and (iv)
as to any resignation, removal, succession, merger or consolidation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that would
constitute a Reportable Event, upon at least 4 Business Days prior notice of the anticipated effective date of such event, the
Certificate Administrator and the Depositor shall cooperate in a timely manner with the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
or any other Person pursuing such resignation, removal, succession, merger or consolidation, as applicable, in connection with
the Depositor’s or the Certificate Administrator’s obligation to file any related required Form 8-K relating to this
Trust on the anticipated effective date of such event. If no successor Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor
can be obtained to perform such obligations for the same compensation to which the terminated Master Servicer, Special Servicer
or Operating Advisor would have been entitled, additional amounts payable to such successor Master Servicer, Special Servicer
or Operating Advisor shall be treated as Realized Losses.


 


(e)          The
Operating Advisor may resign from its obligations and duties hereby imposed on it (a) upon thirty (30) days’ prior written
notice to the Depositor, the Master


 






    -418-


     


    

 


Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Controlling Class Representative
and the Risk Retention Consultation Party, if applicable, and (b) upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment
by, a successor Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and receipt by the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation
from each Rating Agency. No such resignation by the Operating Advisor shall become effective until the replacement Operating Advisor
shall have assumed the resigning Operating Advisor’s responsibilities and obligations. The resigning Operating Advisor shall
pay all costs and expenses (including costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated
with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 6.04(e).


 


Section
6.05     Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer. Solely with respect to their performance of their respective duties under this Agreement, the Master Servicer and
the Special Servicer shall afford the Depositor, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers, the Certificate Administrator, the
Trustee and the Rating Agencies, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours access to all records maintained by it in
respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to its officers responsible for such obligations. Upon written request,
the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall furnish to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee its most recent publicly available financial statements (or, with respect
to the Master Servicer, those of its ultimate parent) and such other non-proprietary information as the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion as it possesses, which is relevant to
the performance of its duties hereunder and which it is not prohibited by applicable law or contract from disclosing. The Depositor
may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder which are in default
and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of such Person hereunder or
exercise any rights of such Person hereunder, provided that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be relieved
of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. If the Depositor or its designee
undertakes any such action, it will be reimbursed by the Trust Fund from the Collection Accounts (or with respect to a Serviced
Whole Loan, to the extent such reimbursement is allocable to such Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account), as provided in Section
3.06 and Section 6.03(a) hereof to the extent not recoverable from the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable.
None of the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Master Servicer (solely with respect to any action or failure
to act by the Special Servicer) or the Special Servicer (solely with respect to any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer)
shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and
no such party is obligated to monitor or supervise the performance of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under this Agreement
or otherwise. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be under any obligation to disclose confidential or proprietary
information pursuant to this Section.


 


Section
6.06     The Master Servicer or Special Servicer as Owners of a Certificate. The Master Servicer
or an Affiliate of the Master Servicer, or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer, may become the Holder
(or with respect to a Global Certificate, Certificate Owner) of any Certificate with the same rights it would have if it were
not the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate thereof. If, at any time during which the Master


 






    -419-


     


    

 


Servicer
or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is the Holder or Certificate Owner of any
Certificate, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer proposes to take action (including for this purpose, omitting to take
action) that (i) is not expressly prohibited by the terms hereof and would not, in the Master Servicer’s or the Special
Servicer’s good faith judgment, violate the Servicing Standard, and (ii) if taken, might nonetheless, in the Master Servicer’s
or the Special Servicer’s good faith judgment, be considered by other Persons to violate the Servicing Standard, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer may, but will not be required to, seek the approval of the Certificateholders to such action
(or inaction) by delivering to the Certificate Administrator a written notice that (i) states that it is delivered pursuant to
this Section 6.06, (ii) identifies the Percentage Interest in each Class of Certificates beneficially owned by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and (iii) describes in reasonable
detail the action (or inaction) that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer proposes to take (or refrain from taking). The
Certificate Administrator, upon receipt of such notice, shall forward it to the Certificateholders (other than the Master Servicer
and its Affiliates or the Special Servicer and its Affiliates, as appropriate) together with such instructions for response as
the Certificate Administrator shall reasonably determine. If at any time Certificateholders holding a majority of the Voting Rights
of all Certificateholders and, if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the applicable Directing Holder
(calculated without regard to the Certificates beneficially owned by the Master Servicer or its Affiliates or the Special Servicer
or its Affiliates, as applicable) shall have consented in writing to the proposal described in the written notice, and if the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall act as proposed in the written notice, such action shall be deemed to comply with
the Servicing Standard. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, of the reasonable expenses of the Certificate Administrator incurred pursuant to this paragraph. It is
not the intent of the foregoing provision that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be permitted to invoke the procedure
set forth herein with respect to routine servicing matters arising hereunder, except in the case of unusual circumstances.


 


Section
6.07     The Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor and the Risk Retention Consultation Party.
(a) For so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder shall be entitled to advise
(1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans (other than any Conflicted Loan applicable to the Directing
Holder or Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan), (2) the Special Servicer with respect to Performing Loans (other than any Conflicted
Loan applicable to the Directing Holder, Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) with respect to Special
Servicer Major Decisions, and (3) the Master Servicer with respect to Performing Loans (other than any Conflicted Loan applicable
to the Directing Holder, Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) with respect to Master Servicer Major Decisions.


 


Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, except as set forth in, and in any event subject to, this Section 6.07, with respect to
any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, any applicable Conflicted Loan or any Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan)
or any Serviced Whole Loan (other than any Servicing Shift Whole Loan), for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred
and is continuing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be permitted to take any action that constitutes
a Major Decision, and the Special Servicer shall not consent to the Master Servicer’s taking any of the following actions


 






    -420-


     


    

 


that
are Special Servicer Major Decisions, as to which the Directing Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or,
in connection with an Acceptable Insurance Default, 30 days) after receipt of a written report by the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, describing in reasonable detail (i) the background and circumstances requiring action of the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, (ii) the proposed course of action recommended, and (iii) all information reasonably requested
by the Directing Holder, and reasonably available the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in order to grant
or withhold such consent, which report may, if prepared by the Special Servicer, in its sole discretion, take the form of an Asset
Status Report (the “Major Decision Reporting Package”) (provided that if such written objection has
not been received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, within such 10-Business Day (or 30-day) period,
then the Directing Holder will be deemed to have approved such action); provided that, if the Special Servicer or Master
Servicer (if the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by this 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 (if no
Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) in this Agreement, is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders
and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such
Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender and with respect to any
Serviced Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate
Companion Loan) and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has made a reasonable effort to contact the Directing
Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may take any such action without waiting for the Directing
Holder’s response.


 


If
a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, but for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred,
neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as applicable, will be required to obtain the consent of the Directing Holder
with respect to any of the Major Decisions or Asset Status Reports, but shall consult with the Directing Holder in connection
with any Major Decision that it is processing or, in the case of the Special Servicer, any Asset Status Report (or any other matter
for which the consent of the Directing Holder would have been required or for which the Directing Holder would have the right
to direct the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer if no Control Termination Event had occurred and was continuing) and to
consider alternative actions recommended by the Directing Holder in respect of such Major Decision or Asset Status Report (or
such other matter). Such consultation will not be binding on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. In the event the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives no response from the Directing Holder within 10 days following the Master
Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s written request for input (which request shall include the related Major Decision
Reporting Package) on any required consultation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be obligated
to consult with the Directing Holder on the specific matter.


 


(b)          In
addition, (i) for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (other
than any applicable Conflicted Loan with respect to the applicable Risk Retention Consultation Party), and (ii) during the continuance
of a Consultation Termination Event, with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than any applicable Conflicted Loan with
respect to the applicable Risk Retention


 






    -421-


     


    

 


Consultation
Party), upon written request of a Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall consult
with such Risk Retention Consultation Party on a non-binding basis in connection with any Major Decision that it is processing
(and such other matters that are subject to the non-binding consultation rights of such Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant
to this Agreement) and to consider alternative actions recommended by such Risk Retention Consultation Party in respect of such
Major Decision (or any other matter requiring consultation with such Risk Retention Consultation Party); provided that in the
event the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, receives no response from a Risk Retention Consultation Party within
10 days following the later of (i) the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, written request
for input on any requested consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information in the possession of the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, reasonably requested by such Risk Retention Consultation Party related to the subject
matter of such consultation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be obligated to consult with
such Risk Retention Consultation Party on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of such Risk Retention Consultation
Party to respond will not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, from using reasonable efforts to
consult with such Risk Retention Consultation Party on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced
Whole Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) no Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have any consultation
rights with respect to any related Conflicted Loan and (y) any consultation with either Risk Retention Consultation Party under
this Agreement shall occur only upon request of such Risk Retention Consultation Party, and any such consultation shall be on
a strictly non-binding basis and shall be subject to all limitations with respect to the procedures and timing for such consultation
set forth in this Section 6.07.


 


The
Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability to the Trust Fund, any party to this Agreement, any Certificateholders
or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment.


 


(c)          Prior
to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall provide each Major Decision
Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor promptly after the Special Servicer receives the Controlling Class Representative’s
approval or deemed approval of such Major Decision Reporting Package; provided, however, that with respect to any
Performing Loan no Major Decision Reporting Package shall be required to be delivered (and the Special Servicer shall use reasonable
efforts not to deliver such Major Decision Reporting Package) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor
Consultation Event. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event (whether or not
a Control Termination Event is continuing), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide each Major
Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor simultaneously with the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s
written request, as applicable, for the Operating Advisor’s input regarding the related Major Decision (which written request
and Major Decision Reporting Package may be delivered in one notice), as set forth below. With respect to any particular Major
Decision and/or related Major Decision Reporting Package or any Asset Status Report required to be delivered by the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer to the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall make available
to the Operating Advisor a servicing officer with the relevant knowledge regarding the Mortgage Loan and such


 






    -422-


     


    

 


Major
Decision and/or Asset Status Report in order to address reasonable questions that the Operating Advisor may have relating to,
among other things, such Major Decision and/or Asset Status Report.


 


If
an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consult
with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision that it is processing as to which it has delivered to
the Operating Advisor a Major Decision Reporting Package (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the
Operating Advisor) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such
consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives
no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) days following the later of (i) its written request for input (which request
is required to include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such
additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor that is in possession of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,
shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the
Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,
from its obligation to use reasonable efforts to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable
Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Conflicted
Loan related to the Controlling Class Representative (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred
and is continuing), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the related Non-Conflicted Special Servicer, as applicable, shall
consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major
Decisions that it is processing or for which it must give its consent or for which it must give its consent and consider alternative
actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section
6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.


 


(d)          The
failure of the Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor or the Risk Retention Consultation Party to respond to any request for
consent or consultation will not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer from using reasonable efforts to seek the
consent of or consult with, as applicable, the Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor or the Risk Retention Consultation Party
on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or any other Mortgage Loan.


 


In
addition, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder may direct the Special
Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to a Mortgage Loan as the Directing Holder may deem
advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made herein; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
no such direction from the Directing Holder and no advice from the Risk Retention Consultation Party or the Operating Advisor,
and no objection contemplated by the preceding paragraph or this paragraph, may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law, this Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement
or the REMIC Provisions, including without


 






    -423-


     


    

 


limitation
the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Paying Agent, the Trust Fund, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the
scope of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities hereunder.


 


If
the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by the Directing Holder, or any advice
from the Directing Holder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party or the Operating Advisor, would otherwise cause the Special Servicer
or Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, any Intercreditor Agreement, applicable law, the
REMIC Provisions or this Agreement, including without limitation, the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer or Master Servicer,
as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent or advice and notify the Directing Holder, the Risk Retention Consultation
Party or the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (if any) and the 17g-5 Information
Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d)
of this Agreement) of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of,
or refraining from taking, any action by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval
of the Directing Holder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party or the Operating Advisor that does not violate any law or the Servicing
Standard or any other provisions of this Agreement or any Intercreditor Agreements will not result in any liability on the part
of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.


 


Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, with respect to the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans, (i) at all times when no
Consultation Termination Event has occurred, the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to the rights of the “Non-Directing

The

(e)          Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Section 6.07(a), (i) the Special Servicer shall process all requests for any matter
that constitutes a Major Decision with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, (b) the Special Servicer shall process all requests
for any matter that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision with respect to any Performing Loan (other than a Non-Serviced

request in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, including

    -424-


     


    

 


mutually
agreed to have the Master Servicer process such request in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the
Master Servicer and Special Servicer, including the Special Servicer’s consent. Upon receiving a request for any matter
that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the

With
respect to any Borrower request or other action on Performing Loans that is not a Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall not
be required to obtain the consent of or consult with the Special Servicer, the Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor or the

anything to the contrary contained herein (i) if a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder
shall have no right to consent to any action taken or not taken by any party to this Agreement; (ii) if a Control Termination
Event has occurred and is continuing but no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder
shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and the
Master Servicer, Special Servicer and any other applicable party shall consult with the Directing Holder in connection with any

Representative.


 


(g)          The
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor, may from time to time request that the Certificate
Administrator provide the name of the then-current Controlling Class Representative for any applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced
Whole Loan. Upon such request, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days
following such request) provide the name of the then-current Controlling Class Representative to the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor, but only to the extent the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge of the
identity of the then-current Controlling Class Representative; provided that if the Certificate Administrator does not
have actual knowledge of the identity of the then-current Controlling Class Representative, then the Certificate Administrator
shall promptly (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days following such request) (i) determine which Class is the Controlling
Class and (ii) request from the Controlling Class Certificateholders the identity of the Controlling Class Representative. Any
expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such information shall be at the expense of the requesting party, except that if
(i) such expenses arise in connection with an event as to which the Controlling Class Representative (or controlling class representative)
has review, consent or consultation rights with respect to an action taken by, or report prepared by, the requesting party pursuant
to this Agreement or in connection with a request made by the Operating Advisor in connection with its obligation under this Agreement
to


 






    -425-


     


    

 


deliver
a copy of the Operating Advisor Annual Report to the Controlling Class Representative and (ii) the requesting party has not been
notified of the identity of the Controlling Class Representative (or controlling class representative) or reasonably believes
that the identity of the Controlling Class Representative (or controlling class representative) has changed, then such expenses
shall be at the expense of the Trust. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor, shall
be entitled to conclusively rely on any such information so provided.


 


To
the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has written notice of any change in the identity of a Controlling Class
Representative or the list of Holders (or Certificate Owners, if applicable) of the Controlling Class, then the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor,
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer thereof, who may rely conclusively on such notice from the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable.

(h)          DBNY
shall be the initial Risk Retention Consultation Party and shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of the existing Risk Retention Consultation Party, any successor Risk Retention
Consultation Party shall deliver to the parties to this Agreement a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1H
to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new Risk Retention Consultation Party. The parties hereto shall be entitled
to assume that the Risk Retention Consultation Party has not changed absent such notice.


 


(i)           Once
a Risk Retention Consultation Party has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee,
the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) shall
be entitled to rely on such selection unless the Holders of the VRR Interest entitled to appoint the Risk Retention Consultation
Party, by Certificate Balance, or the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Holder of the VRR Interest, in writing, of the
selection of such new Risk Retention Consultation Party (including the new contact information).


 


(j)           Each
Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Risk Retention Consultation Party
may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii)
the Risk Retention Consultation Party may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Class V1 or Class V2 Certificates;
(iii) the Risk Retention Consultation Party does not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates;
(iv) the Risk Retention Consultation Party may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of one or more Classes including
the Class V1 or Class V2 Certificates over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Certificates; and (v)
the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i)
through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Risk Retention Consultation Party
or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of the Risk Retention Consultation Party for having so acted.


 


Section
6.08     Rights of Non-Directing Holders. With respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall:


 


(a)          consult
with the related Non-Directing Holder (or its designee or representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent that
such Non-Directing Holder (or its designee or representative) requests consultation with respect to any “major decision”
or “major action” set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement or the implementation of any recommended actions
outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Serviced Whole Loan, and to consider alternative actions recommended by such
Non-Directing Holder (or its designee or representative); provided, that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business
Days from the delivery to the related Non-Directing Holder (or its designee or representative) of written notice of a proposed
action, together with copies of the related notice, information or report, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable,
shall no longer be obligated to consult with the applicable Non-Directing Holder (or its designee or representative) (unless the
Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, 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 begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery
of all information relating thereto).


 






    -427-


     


    

 


Notwithstanding
the foregoing non-binding consultation rights of the Non-Directing Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,
may take any “major decision” or “major action” set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement or any
action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect
the interests of the Certificateholder and the related Companion Loan Noteholder. Unless specified otherwise in the related Intercreditor
Agreement, neither the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative
actions recommended by the Non-Directing Holder; and


 


(b)          in
addition to the foregoing non-binding consultation rights, if provided for in the related Intercreditor Agreement, the Non-Directing
Holder shall have the right to annual conference calls with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer at the offices of the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the related Whole Loan are discussed.

of the Master Servicer’s failure to make a Servicing Advance or 45 days in the case of failure to pay the premium for any
insurance policy required to be force placed by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or in any event such reasonable

of being cured and the Master Servicer is diligently pursuing such cure, such 30-day period will be extended an additional 30
days;


 


(iv)    a
decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under
any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator,
trustee or similar official in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar
proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Master Servicer and such
decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged, undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60 days;


 


(v)     the
Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator, trustee or similar official in any bankruptcy,
insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer

    -429-


     


    

 


(vii)   the
Master Servicer is removed from S&P’s Select Servicer List as a U.S. Commercial Mortgage Master Servicer and is not
restored to such status on such list within sixty (60) days;


 


(viii)  the
Master Servicer is no longer rated at least “CMS3” by Fitch and such Master Servicer is not reinstated to at least

(ix)     KBRA
has (A) qualified, downgraded or withdrawn its rating or ratings of one or more Classes of Certificates, or (B) placed one or
more Classes of Certificates on “watch status” in contemplation of possible rating downgrade or withdrawal (and such
qualification, downgrade or withdrawal or “watch status” placement shall not have been withdrawn by KBRA within sixty
(60) days of such event), and, in the case of either of clause (A) or (B), publicly citing servicing concerns with the Master
Servicer as the sole or a material factor in such rating action; or


 


(x)      subject
to Section 10.16(c), any failure by the Master Servicer to deliver (a) any Exchange Act reporting items required to be
delivered by the Master Servicer to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator under Article X by the time required under
Article X or (b) any Exchange Act reporting items that a primary servicer, sub-servicer or Servicing Function Participant
(such entity, the “Sub-Servicing Entity”) retained by the Master Servicer (but excluding any Mortgage Loan
Seller Sub-Servicer) is required to deliver (any Sub-Servicing Entity shall be terminated if it defaults in accordance with the
provision of this clause (viii));


 


then,
and in each and every such case, so long as a Master Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee may,
and at the written direction of (x) the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights of all Certificates or (y) the
Depositor with respect to clause (ii) above (to the extent such Master Servicer Termination Event relates to the obligations regarding
Exchange Act reporting contemplated by Article X) or clause (viii) above upon five (5) Business Days’ notice, shall,
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer (other than as set forth in Section 7.01(d)). In the
case of clause (vii), the Certificate Administrator shall be required to notify Certificateholders and Serviced Companion Loan
Noteholders of such Master Servicer Termination Event and request whether such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholders favor such termination.


 


If
the Master Servicer is also the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer is terminated as provided in this Section 7.01,
then the Master Servicer shall also be terminated as Special Servicer.


 


If
the Master Servicer receives notice of termination under this Section 7.01(a) solely due to a Master Servicer Termination
Event under Section 7.01(a)(vii) and if the Master Servicer provides the Trustee with the appropriate “request for
proposal” materials within five (5) Business Days following such termination notice, then the Master Servicer shall continue
to serve as Master Servicer hereunder until a successor Master Servicer is selected in accordance with this Section 7.01(a).
Upon receipt of the “request for proposal” materials, the Trustee shall promptly thereafter (using such “request
for proposal” materials provided by the Master Servicer) solicit good faith bids for the rights to service the Mortgage
Loans and Serviced


 






    -430-


     


    

 


Companion
Loans under this Agreement from at least three (3) Persons qualified to act as Master Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section
6.02 and 7.02 of this Agreement (any such Person so qualified, a “Qualified Bidder”) or, if three
(3) Qualified Bidders cannot be located, then from as many persons as the Trustee can determine are Qualified Bidders; provided
that, at the Trustee’s request, the Master Servicer shall supply the Trustee with the names of Persons from whom to
solicit such bids; and provided, further, that the Trustee shall not be responsible if less than three (3) or no
Qualified Bidders submit bids for the right to service the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans under this Agreement. The
bid proposal shall require any Successful Bidder (as defined below), as a condition of such bid, to enter into this Agreement
as successor Master Servicer, and to agree to be bound by the terms hereof, within 45 days after the notice of termination of
the Master Servicer. The materials provided to the Trustee shall provide for soliciting bids: (i) on the basis of such successor
Master Servicer retaining all Sub-Servicers to continue the primary servicing of the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans
pursuant to the terms of the respective Sub-Servicing Agreements and entering into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the terminated
Master Servicer to service each of the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans for which it was the Master Servicer and not
subject to a Sub-Servicing Agreement at a sub-servicing fee rate per annum equal to, for each Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion
Loan serviced, the excess of the related Servicing Fee Rate minus the related Excess Servicing Fee Rate (each, a “Servicing
Retained Bid”); and (ii) on the basis of terminating each Sub-Servicing Agreement and Sub-Servicer that it is permitted
to terminate in accordance with Section 3.01(c) of this Agreement (each, a “Servicing Released Bid”).
The Trustee shall select the Qualified Bidder with the highest cash Servicing Retained Bid (or, if none, the highest cash Servicing
Released Bid from any Person qualified to act as a Master Servicer) (the “Successful Bidder”) to act as successor
Master Servicer hereunder; provided, that if the Trustee does not receive a Rating Agency Confirmation in accordance with
the procedures set forth in Section 3.30 of this Agreement with respect to such Successful Bidder, then the Trustee shall
repeat the bid process described above (but subject to the above described 45 day time period) until such Rating Agency Confirmation
is obtained. The Trustee shall direct the Successful Bidder to enter into this Agreement as successor Master Servicer pursuant
to the terms hereof no later than 45 days after notice of the termination of the Master Servicer; provided, that the initial
Master Servicer may request and obtain, with the prior written consent of the Directing Holder, an additional 20 days for such
sale and assumption to be completed so long as the initial Master Servicer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
stating that the sale and assumption of the right to service the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans cannot be completed
in the initial 45-day period and specifying the reasons therefor.


 


Upon
the assignment and acceptance of master servicing rights hereunder (subject to the terms of Section 3.12 of this Agreement)
to and by the Successful Bidder, the Trustee shall remit or cause to be remitted (i) if the successful bid was a Servicing Retained
Bid, to the Master Servicer to be terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(a), the amount of such cash bid received from
the Successful Bidder (net of “out of pocket” expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such bid and transferring
servicing) and (ii) if the successful bid was a Servicing Released Bid, to the Master Servicer and each terminated Sub-Servicer
its respective Bid Allocation.


 


The
Master Servicer to be terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(a) shall be responsible for all out of pocket expenses incurred
in connection with the attempt to sell its rights


 






    -431-


     


    

 


to
service the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans, which expenses are not reimbursed to the party that incurred such expenses
pursuant to the preceding paragraph.


 


If
the Successful Bidder has not entered into this Agreement as successor Master Servicer within the above described time period
or no Successful Bidder was identified within the above described time period, the Master Servicer to be terminated pursuant to
Section 7.01(a) of this Agreement shall reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable “out of pocket” expenses incurred
by the Trustee in connection with such bid process and the Trustee shall have no further obligations under this Section 7.01(a).
The Trustee thereafter may act or may select a successor to act as Master Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 7.02
of this Agreement.


 


Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Article VII, if the Master Servicer shall timely deliver the notice and request for proposal
materials referred to in the fourth preceding paragraph, no resignation or termination of the Master Servicer shall be effective
in connection with a Master Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(vii) of this Agreement, and the Master Servicer
shall continue to perform as such and to collect the servicing fee until the conclusion of the process described in this (a).


 


(b)          “Special
Servicer Termination Event,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events:

required to be so remitted by the Special Servicer pursuant to, and at the time specified by, the terms of this Agreement; provided,
that the failure of the Special Servicer to remit such amount to the Master Servicer shall not be a Special Servicer Termination
Event if such failure is remedied within two Business Days and if the Special Servicer has compensated the Master Servicer for
any loss of income on such amount suffered by the Master Servicer due to and caused by the late remittance of the Special Servicer
and reimburse the Trust for any resulting Advance Interest Amount due to the Master Servicer;


 


(ii)     any

contemplated by Article X (except as otherwise provided under clause (viii) of this definition of “Special
Servicer Termination Event”), or (B) 15 days in the case of failure to pay the premium for any insurance policy required
to be force placed by the Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or in any event such reasonable shorter period of time as
is necessary to avoid the commencement of foreclosure proceedings for any lien relating to unpaid real estate taxes or assessments
or a lapse in any required insurance coverage) after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be

than
25% of such Class or (c) an affected Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder; provided, if such failure is capable of being
cured and the Special Servicer is diligently pursuing such cure, such 30- or 45-day period, as applicable, will be extended an
additional 30 days; provided, further, however, that such extended period will not apply to the obligations regarding
Exchange Act reporting contemplated by Article X;


 


(iii)    any
breach on the part of the Special Servicer of any representation or warranty contained in Section 2.04(b) of this Agreement,

remedied, shall have been given (a) to the Special Servicer by any party hereto, or (b) to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Depositor and the Trustee (x) by the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not
less than 25% of such Class or (y) by an affected Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder; provided, if such breach is capable
of being cured and the Special Servicer is diligently pursuing such cure, such 30-day period will be extended an additional 30
days;


 


(iv)    a
decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under
any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator,
trustee or similar official in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar
proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Special Servicer and such
decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged, undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60 days;


 


(v)     the

(vi)    the
Special Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage
of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, voluntarily

the case of clause (vii) above, the Trustee shall, upon actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer of such Special Servicer Termination
Event, be required to notify the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator, upon receipt
of such notice or upon actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer of such Special Servicer Termination Event, shall notify the
Certificateholders and Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of such Special Servicer Termination Event and request whether such
Certificateholders and, if applicable, the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders favor such termination.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
Section 7.01(a), (i) if any Master Servicer Termination Event occurs that affects a Serviced Companion Loan and the Master
Servicer is not otherwise terminated or (ii) if an NRSRO engaged to rate a Serviced Companion Loan Security qualifies, downgrades
or withdraws its rating of such Serviced Companion Loan Security, publicly citing servicing concerns with the Master Servicer
as the sole or a material factor in such rating action and that rating action is not withdrawn within 60 days, then the Trustee,
at the direction of the Companion Loan Noteholder, shall direct the Master Servicer to appoint a sub-servicer (or if a sub-servicer
is then sub-servicing such Serviced Whole Loan, to appoint a new sub-servicer to service such Serviced Whole Loan, but only if
such existing sub-servicer is in default after any applicable cure periods under the related sub-servicing agreement, and the
Master Servicer shall be permitted to terminate the sub-servicing agreement due to such default) with respect all of the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement related to such Serviced Whole Loan. The Master Servicer shall appoint
a replacement sub-servicer with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan; provided, that such sub-servicer meets the eligibility
requirements of a successor master servicer under Section 7.02 (including receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation


 






    -434-


     


    

 


relating
to the Certificates and Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any) and the eligibility requirements of each Other Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
Section 7.01(b), (i) if any Special Servicer Termination Event occurs that affects a Serviced Companion Loan and the Special
Servicer is not otherwise terminated or (ii) if an NRSRO engaged to rate a Serviced Companion Loan Security qualifies, downgrades
or withdraws its rating of such Serviced Companion Loan Security, publicly citing servicing concerns with the Special Servicer
as the sole or a material factor in such rating action and that rating action is not withdrawn within 60 days, then the Trustee,
at the direction of the Companion Loan Noteholder, shall terminate the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Whole
Loan only, but no other Mortgage Loan.


 


(e)          If
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01, the Trustee (the “Terminating
Party”) shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be (the “Terminated
Party”), terminate all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds
thereof, other than any rights the Terminated Party has to Excess Servicing Fees, any rights it has hereunder as a Certificateholder
and any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued
or owing to it under this Agreement, plus interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such amounts until received to the extent such
amounts bear interest as provided in this Agreement, with respect to periods prior to the date of such termination and the right
to the benefits of Section 6.03 of this Agreement notwithstanding any such termination), and with respect to the Special
Servicer, the right to receive any Workout Fee subsequent to its termination as Special Servicer, pursuant to Section 3.12(c)
of this Agreement. No successor Special Servicer shall be entitled to such Workout Fee received by the terminated Special
Servicer. On or after the receipt by the Terminated Party of such written notice, all of its authority and power under this Agreement,
whether with respect to the Certificates (except that the Terminated Party shall retain its rights as a Certificateholder if and
to the extent that it is a Certificateholder), the Mortgage Loans, the Serviced Companion Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and
be vested in the Terminating Party pursuant to and under this Section and, without limitation, the Terminating Party is hereby
authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Terminated Party, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate
to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage
Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each agree in the event it is terminated
pursuant to this Section 7.01 to promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice)
provide, at its own expense, the Terminating Party with all documents and records requested by the Terminating Party to enable
the Terminating Party to assume its functions hereunder, and to cooperate with the Terminating Party and the successor to its
responsibilities hereunder in effecting the termination of its responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation,
the transfer to the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer or the Terminating Party, as applicable, for administration
by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
to the Collection Account, the applicable Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account, any REO Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund,
any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, Lock-Box Account or Cash Collateral Account or which shall


 






    -435-


     


    

 


thereafter
be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and shall promptly provide the Terminating Party or such successor Master Servicer
or successor Special Servicer (which may include the Trustee) all documents and records reasonably requested by it, such documents
and records to be provided in such form as the Terminating Party or such successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall reasonably
request (including electronic form), to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s function hereunder.
All reasonable costs and expenses of the Terminating Party (including the cost of obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation and any
applicable indemnity) or the successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer incurred in connection with transferring
the Mortgage Files to the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession
as successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 7.01 shall be paid by the predecessor
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses.
If the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer (as the case may be) has not reimbursed the Terminating Party or the successor
Master Servicer or Special Servicer for such expenses within 90 days after the presentation of reasonable documentation, such
expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust Fund; provided that the Terminated Party shall not thereby be relieved of its
liability for such expenses. If and to the extent that the Terminated Party has not reimbursed such costs and expenses, the Terminating
Party shall have an affirmative obligation to take all reasonable actions to collect such expenses on behalf of the Trust Fund.


 


In
no event shall the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator be deemed to have knowledge of, or be aware of, any Master Servicer
Termination Event or Special Servicer Termination Event until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator,
as the case may be, has received written notice thereof or has actual knowledge thereof.


 


No
removal or replacement of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as contemplated by this Agreement shall become effective
until (i) the Trustee or a successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall have assumed the resigning or terminated Master
Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder, (ii) the Certificate
Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 10.09, (iii) any other information required under
Section 10.03 or Section 10.09 has been delivered to any applicable Other Depositor with respect to any related
Companion Loan, and (iv) as to any resignation, removal, succession, merger or consolidation of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer that would constitute a Reportable Event, upon at least 4 Business Days prior notice of the anticipated effective date
of such event, the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor shall cooperate in a timely manner with the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or any other Person pursuing such resignation, removal, succession, merger or consolidation, as applicable, in
connection with the Depositor’s or the Certificate Administrator’s obligation to file any related required Form 8-K
relating to this Trust on the anticipated effective date of such event.


 


Section
7.02     Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. Upon the receipt of a notice of termination
by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 of this Agreement, the Terminating Party (subject
to Section 7.01(a) and Section 7.01(c)) shall be its successor, until a successor is appointed by the Directing
Holder as provided in this Section 7.02 or Section 3.22(b), as applicable, in all respects in its capacity as the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided


 






    -436-


     


    

 


for
herein and, except as provided herein, shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, limitations on liability and liabilities
relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Master Servicer or Special Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof,
provided, that (i) the Terminating Party shall have no responsibilities, duties, liabilities or obligations with respect
to any act or omission of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer and (ii) any failure to perform, or delay in performing, such
duties or responsibilities caused by the Terminated Party’s failure to provide, or delay in providing, records, tapes, disks,
information or monies shall not be considered a termination event for such successor hereunder. The Trustee, as successor Master
Servicer or successor Special Servicer, shall be indemnified to the full extent provided to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer,
as applicable, under this Agreement prior to the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s termination. The appointment
of a successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Master Servicer
or Special Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. The Terminating
Party shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer herein or in
any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer or predecessor Special Servicer
or for any losses incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07 hereunder
nor shall the Trustee be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan or any Serviced Companion Loan hereunder. As compensation therefor,
the Terminating Party as successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Compensation
or Special Servicing Compensation, as applicable, and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Serviced Companion Loans
that accrue after the date of the Terminating Party’s succession to which such predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer
would have been entitled if such predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, had continued to act hereunder.
If any Advances made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall at any time be outstanding, or any amounts of interest thereon
shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay Advances and interest hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances
made by the Trustee (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon), until such Advances and interest shall have been repaid in
full. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall if it is unable to so act or if
the Holders of Certificates entitled to (i) in the case of the Master Servicer, at least 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights (or,
for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative), or (ii) in
the case of the Special Servicer, at least 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights (or, for so long as no Control Termination Event
has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder), so request in writing to the Trustee, or, with respect to a Serviced Whole
Loan, if an affected Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder so requests in writing to the Trustee, or if the Trustee is not an “approved”
servicer by any of the Rating Agencies for mortgage pools similar to the Trust Fund, promptly appoint, or petition a court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution that, for so long as no Control Termination
Event has occurred and is continuing, has been approved by the Directing Holder (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld
in the case of the appointment of a successor Master Servicer) to act as the successor to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer,
as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer
or Special Servicer hereunder; provided that the Trustee shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to the
Certificates and any Serviced Companion Loan Securities. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer
hereunder shall be effective until the assumption by such


 






    -437-


     


    

 


successor
of all the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder, which appointment
has been approved, if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, by the Directing Holder, such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer if the Special
Servicer is also the Master Servicer) hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall
act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. Pending the appointment of a successor to the Special Servicer, the Trustee shall
act in such capacity. In connection with such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements
for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans, Serviced Companion Loans or otherwise as it and such
successor shall agree; provided, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted to the Terminated Party
hereunder, unless no successor to the Terminated Party can be obtained to perform the obligations of such Terminated Party hereunder,
in which case additional amounts shall be paid to such successor and such amounts in excess of that permitted the Terminated Party
shall be treated as Realized Losses and VRR Realized Losses. Any successor Special Servicer shall be subject to the rights of
the Directing Holder under Section 3.22(b) of this Agreement. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession.


 


If
the Trustee or an Affiliate acts pursuant to this Section 7.02 as successor to the resigning or terminated Master Servicer,
it may reduce the Master Servicer’s Excess Servicing Fee Rate to the extent that its or such Affiliate’s compensation
as successor Master Servicer would otherwise be below the market rate servicing compensation. If the Trustee elects to appoint
a successor to the resigning or terminated Master Servicer other than itself or an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 7.02,
it may reduce the Master Servicer’s Excess Servicing Fee Rate to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion
of the Trustee) for the Trustee to appoint a qualified successor Master Servicer that meets the requirements of this Section
7.02.


 


Section
7.03     Notification to Certificateholders and Other Persons. (a) Upon its receipt of written
notice of any termination pursuant to Section 7.01 above or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, the Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing in the Certificate Register, the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information
Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement), the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and to each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder at its address appearing in the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder Register.


 


(b)          Within
30 days after the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event (or any analogous servicer termination event under any Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement relating to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan), Operating Advisor Termination Event or Asset Representations
Reviewer Termination Event of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, the Trustee shall transmit by mail
to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator (who shall then notify all Holders of Certificates), the 17g-5 Information Provider
(who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this
Agreement), and each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder, notice of such Servicer Termination Event, Operating Advisor Termination
Event or Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event, unless such Servicer Termination Event,


 






    -438-


     


    

 


Operating
Advisor Termination Event or Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall have been cured or waived.


 


Section
7.04     Other Remedies of Trustee. During the continuance of any Servicer Termination Event,
so long as the Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in Section
7.01 of this Agreement, shall have the right, in its own name as Trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter
existing at law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the rights
and remedies, of the Certificateholders and, in the case of any Serviced Companion Loan, of the related Serviced Companion Loan
Noteholders (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filing of
proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). In such event, the legal fees, expenses and costs of such action and any liability
resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund (and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, such
amounts shall be allocated in accordance with the expense allocation provision of the related Intercreditor Agreement). Except
as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy,
and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right
or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Servicer Termination Event.


 


Section
7.05     Waiver of Past Servicer Termination Events and Operating Advisor Termination Events; Termination.
The Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the aggregate Voting Rights of the Certificates may, together
with each affected Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (to the extent they are adversely affected by such Servicer Termination
Event or Operating Advisor Termination Event, as applicable), on behalf of all Holders of Certificates waive any termination event
(within 20 days of the receipt of notice from the Certificate Administrator of the occurrence of such termination event) with
respect to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor in the performance of its obligations hereunder
and its consequences, except a termination event with respect to making any required deposits (including, with respect to the
Master Servicer, P&I Advances) to or payments from the Collection Account, any Serviced Whole Loan Collection Account or the
Lower-Tier Distribution Account, or in remitting payments as received, in each case in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any
such waiver of a past termination event, such termination event shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Termination Event or Operating
Advisor Termination Event arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other termination event or impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
a Master Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(ii) (to the extent such Master Servicer Termination Event relates
to the obligations regarding Exchange Act reporting contemplated by Article X) or Section 7.01(a)(x) or a Special
Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(b)(ii) (to the extent such Special Servicer Termination Event relates to
the obligations regarding Exchange Act reporting contemplated by Article X) or Section 7.01(b)(x) of this Agreement
may be waived only with the consent of the Depositor and each affected Other Depositor.


 


Section
7.06     Trustee as Maker of Advances. If the Master Servicer fails to fulfill its obligations
hereunder to make any Advances and such failure remains uncured, the


 






    -439-


     


    

 


Trustee
shall perform such obligations (x) within five Business Days of the Master Servicer Termination Event resulting from such failure
by the Master Servicer with respect to Servicing Advances to the extent a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge
of such failure with respect to such Servicing Advances and (y) by 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the related Distribution
Date with respect to P&I Advances pursuant to the Trustee’s receipt of notice of failure pursuant to Section 4.07(a)
of this Agreement unless the Trustee has received notice that such failure has been cured by 11:00 a.m. on such Distribution
Date. With respect to any such Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Master Servicer’s rights
with respect to Advances hereunder, including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s rights of reimbursement and interest
on each Advance at the Reimbursement Rate, and rights to determine that a proposed Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance (without
regard to any impairment of any such rights of reimbursement caused by the Master Servicer’s failure to perform its obligations
hereunder); provided, that if Advances made by the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall at any time be outstanding, or
any interest on any Advance shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay such Advances and the interest thereon
hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances outstanding to the Trustee, until such Advances shall have been repaid in
full, together with all interest accrued thereon, prior to reimbursement of the Master Servicer for such Advances. The Trustee
shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice given with respect to a Nonrecoverable Advance or any determination of nonrecoverability
in connection therewith by the Master Servicer hereunder.


 


Section
7.07     Termination of the Operating Advisor. (a) An “Operating Advisor Termination
Event” means any one of the following events whether any such event shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected
by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative
or governmental body:


 


(i)       any
failure by the Operating Advisor to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements or the material
breach of its representations or warranties under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days
after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Operating
Advisor by any party hereto or to the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates
having greater than 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights; provided, that with respect to any such failure which is not curable
within such 30-day period, the Operating Advisor shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect such cure
so long as it has commenced to cure such failure within the initial 30-day period and has provided the Trustee and the Certificate
Administrator with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that it has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such
cure;


 


(ii)      any
failure by the Operating Advisor to perform in accordance with the Operating Advisor Standard which failure shall continue unremedied
for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given in
writing to the Operating Advisor by any party to this Agreement;


 


(iii)     any
failure by the Operating Advisor to be an Eligible Operating Advisor, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of
30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given in writing to the
Operating Advisor by any party to this Agreement;


 






    -440-


     


    

 


(iv)     a
decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under
any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver
or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the
winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Operating Advisor, and such decree or order shall
have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days;


 


(v)     the
Operating Advisor shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee in any
insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of or relating
to the Operating Advisor or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or


 


(vi)    the
Operating Advisor shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take
advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily
suspend payment of its obligations.


 


Upon
receipt by the Certificate Administrator of notice of the occurrence of any Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Certificate
Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s
Website and by mail, unless the Certificate Administrator has received notice that it has been remedied. If an Operating Advisor
Termination Event has occurred then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Operating Advisor Termination Event shall
not have been remedied, either (i) the Trustee may or (ii) upon the written direction of holders of Certificates evidencing not
less than 25% of the Voting Rights of each Class of Regular Certificates, the Trustee shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations
of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination, including
the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement, and other than indemnification rights (arising
out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Operating Advisor; provided that no such
termination shall be effective until a successor Operating Advisor has been appointed and has assumed all of the obligations of
the Operating Advisor under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to notify the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of any Operating Advisor Termination Event of
which the Depositor has actual knowledge.


 


The
holders of Voting Rights representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights affected by any Operating Advisor Termination Event hereunder
may waive such Operating Advisor Termination Event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice from the Certificate Administrator
of the occurrence of such Operating Advisor Termination Event. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event,
such Operating Advisor Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder.
Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event by Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator
shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to
such Operating Advisor Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust.


 






    -441-


     


    

 


(b)          Upon
(i) the written direction of holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 15% of the aggregate Voting Rights requesting a
vote to terminate and replace the Operating Advisor with a proposed successor Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating
Advisor and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by
the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide
written notice thereof to the Operating Advisor and to all Certificateholders by (i) posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s
Website and (ii) mail at their addresses appearing in the Certificate Register. Upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates
evidencing more than 50% of the Voting Rights that exercise their right to vote (provided that Holders of at least 50%
of the Voting Rights exercise their right to vote), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating
Advisor with respect to the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement (other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination
including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement and other than indemnification rights
arising out of events occurring prior to such termination) by written notice to the Operating Advisor, and the proposed successor
operating advisor will be appointed. The provisions set forth in the foregoing sentences of this Section 7.07(b) shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of solely the Certificateholders and the Trustee as between each other. The Operating
Advisor shall not have any cause of action based upon or arising from any breach or alleged breach of such provisions other than
may arise, as a result of the failure to comply with the above described voting procedures. As between the Operating Advisor,
on the one hand, and the Certificateholders, on the other, the Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to
vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Operating Advisor.


 


(c)          On
or after the receipt by the Operating Advisor of such written notice of termination, subject to the foregoing, all of its authority
and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Operating Advisor shall execute any
and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all other acts or things reasonably necessary or appropriate to
effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 Business Days after (1)
the Operating Advisor resigns pursuant to Section 6.04(a) of this Agreement or (2) the Certificate Administrator delivers
such written notice of termination to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee shall upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates
evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of each Class of Certificates appoint a successor Operating Advisor that is
an Eligible Operating Advisor, which successor Operating Advisor may be an Affiliate of the Trustee and shall be the proposed
Operating Advisor in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 7.07(b) of this Agreement; provided, that if the Trustee
is acting as the successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, neither the Trustee nor any of its Affiliates shall
be the successor Operating Advisor. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of a successor Operating Advisor
to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator (and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly
provide such notice to the Controlling Class Representative, each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder and each Certificateholder)
within one Business Day of such appointment. The Operating Advisor shall not at any time be the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, a Mortgage Loan Seller, an Other Depositor, an Other Servicer, an Other Special Servicer or an Affiliate
of any of them. If any of such entities becomes the Operating Advisor, including by means of an Affiliation arising after the
date hereof, the Operating Advisor shall immediately resign or cause an assignment under


 






    -442-


     


    

 


Section
6.04 of this Agreement and the Trustee shall upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than
25% of the Voting Rights of each Class of Certificates appoint a successor Operating Advisor subject to and in accordance with
this Section 7.07(c), which successor Operating Advisor may be an Affiliate of the Trustee.


 


(d)          Upon
any termination of the Operating Advisor and appointment of a successor to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee shall, as soon as
possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor,
the Certificateholders, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party, the 17g-5 Information Provider
(who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this
Agreement) and, if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative. If
the Operating Advisor is terminated, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights
or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing
to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination).

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE AND CERTIFICATE ADMINISTRATOR


 


Section
8.01     Duties of Trustee and Certificate Administrator. (a) Each of the Trustee and the Certificate
Administrator undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no permissive
right of the Trustee shall be construed as a duty. During the continuance of a Servicer Termination Event of which a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.02 and 7.05 of
this Agreement shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and
skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s

(viii)  In
no event shall the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations

entitled to withdraw from the Distribution Accounts prior to the distribution to Certificateholders to the extent set forth herein
and to the extent such payments are “unanticipated expenses incurred by the REMIC” within the meaning of Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(iii) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith; provided, that, subject to the last paragraph of Section 8.01 and Section 8.02(a)(iii)
of this Agreement, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator shall not refuse to perform any of their respective
duties hereunder solely as a result of the failure to be paid their respective portion of the Certificate Administrator/Trustee
Fee, or the Trustee’s, Custodian’s or Certificate Administrator’s previously-incurred expenses, as applicable.
The term “unanticipated expenses incurred by the REMIC” shall include any fees, expenses and disbursement of any separate
Trustee or co-Trustee appointed hereunder, only to the extent such fees, expenses and disbursements were not reasonably anticipated
as of the Closing Date and are attributable to the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC and the losses, liabilities, damages,
claims or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred or advanced by an Indemnified Party in connection with
any litigation arising out of this Agreement attributable to the Lower-Tier REMIC, the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Grantor Trust,

the Indemnified Party or the Custodian, as applicable, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement,
(ii) by reason of its negligent disregard of those obligations or duties, or as may arise from a breach of any representation
or warranty of the Indemnified Party or the Custodian, as applicable, made in this Agreement and (iii) as to which such Indemnified
Party or the Custodian, as applicable, is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.05(d). The right of reimbursement
of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 8.05(d) shall be senior to the rights of all Certificateholders.


 


For
the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any indemnification provisions in this Agreement providing that the issuing entity or
a party to this Agreement is required to indemnify another party to this Agreement for costs, fees and expenses, such costs, fees
and expenses are intended to include costs (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) of the
enforcement of such indemnity.

insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be (or of its property), shall be appointed,
or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be (or of
its property or affairs), for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or if the Trustee or Certificate Administrator

or owing to it under this Agreement with respect to periods prior to the date of such termination or removal) and (ii) such resignation,
termination, or removal shall be effective with respect to each of its other capacities hereunder except its capacity as Custodian

a Mortgage Loan was not endorsed to the outgoing Trustee, the Custodian shall deliver such Mortgage Note to the successor trustee
and the Custodian shall cooperate with any successor trustee to ensure that such Mortgage Note is endorsed (without recourse,
representation or warranty, express or implied) to the order of the

Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, after consultation with the Controlling Class Representative

administrator shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer,
the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (or in the case of a successor certificate administrator, to the predecessor
Certificate Administrator) and the Trustee, as the case may be, instruments accepting their appointment hereunder, and thereupon
the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall become effective and
such successor, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as Trustee or Certificate Administrator,
as applicable, herein; provided that such successor shall satisfy the requirements contained in Section 8.06 of
this Agreement and the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 10.09. The
predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall deliver to its successor all Mortgage Files and related
documents and statements held by it hereunder, and the Depositor and the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as
applicable, shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and
certainly vesting and confirming in the successor all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. No successor trustee or certificate
administrator, as the case may be, shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 8.08 unless at the time of such
acceptance such successor shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 of this Agreement.


 


Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the
succession of such Trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register. If
the Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor
trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.


 


(b)          Any
successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Agreement shall satisfy the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 8.06
hereof.

    -457-


     


    


 


Section
8.09    Merger or Consolidation of Trustee or Certificate Administrator. Any Person into which the
Trustee or the Certificate Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any Person resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, shall
be the successor of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, hereunder; provided that such Person
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 of this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or
any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Trustee or the
Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall notify the other parties hereto of any such event, and the Certificate Administrator
shall post notice of such merger or consolidation to the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section
3.14(d) of this Agreement and provide notice of such event to the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such
notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement).


 


Section
8.10    Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof,
at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Fund or property
securing the same may at the time be located, or for enforcement actions, or where a conflict of interest exists, the Depositor
and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons
approved by the Trustee to act (at the expense of the Trust) as co-Trustee or co-Trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate
Trustee or separate Trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such
title to the Trust Fund, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Depositor and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Depositor shall not
have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Servicer Termination
Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. Except as required
by applicable law, the appointment of a co-Trustee or separate Trustee shall not relieve the Trustee of its responsibilities,
obligations and liabilities hereunder. No co-Trustee or separate Trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility
as a successor Trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-Trustee(s)
or separate Trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof.


 


In
the case of any appointment of a co-Trustee or separate Trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties
and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee
and such separate Trustee or co-Trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate Trustee or co-Trustee is not authorized
to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder),
the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations
(including the holding of title to the Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed
by such separate Trustee or co-Trustee solely at the direction of the Trustee.


 






    -458-


     


    

 


No
Trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement.
The Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate Trustee or co-Trustee,
or if the separate Trustee or co-Trustee is an employee of the Trustee, the Trustee acting alone may accept the resignation of
or remove any separate Trustee or co-Trustee.


 


Any
notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate Trustees
and co-Trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate Trustee or co-Trustee shall
refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.
Each separate Trustee and co-Trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property
specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject
to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of,
affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. In no event shall any such separate Trustee or co-Trustee
be entitled to any provision relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of or affording protection to such separate Trustee
or co-Trustee that imposes a standard of conduct less stringent than that imposed by the Trustee hereunder, affording greater
protection than that afforded to the Trustee hereunder or providing a greater limit on liability than that provided to the Trustee
hereunder.


 


Any
separate Trustee or co-Trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority,
to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name.
If any separate Trustee or co-Trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties,
rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment
of a new or successor Trustee.

    -459-


     


    

 


twenty-one
years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to
the United Kingdom, living on the date hereof.


 


For
purposes of this Section 9.01, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the first option to terminate the Trust Fund, pursuant
to Section 9.01(g), and then the Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interests in the Controlling Class,
the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer, in that order, shall have the option to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to subsection
(c). For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Directing Holder with the consent of the Holders of the Controlling Class,
shall act on behalf of the Holders of the Controlling Class in purchasing the assets of the Trust Fund and terminating the Trust.


 


(b)          The
Trust Fund, the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall be terminated and the assets of the Trust Fund shall be sold or
otherwise disposed of in connection therewith, only pursuant to a “plan of complete liquidation” within the meaning

applicable Notice of Termination is given, and requiring that the Trust Fund, the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC shall
terminate on a Distribution Date occurring not more than 90 days following the date of adoption of the plan of complete liquidation.
For purposes of this Section 9.01(b), the Notice of Termination given pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of this Agreement
shall constitute the adoption of the plan of complete liquidation as of the date such notice is given, which date shall be specified
by the Certificate Administrator in the final federal income tax returns of the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC. Notwithstanding
the termination of the Lower-Tier REMIC, the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Trust Fund, the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible
for filing the final Tax Returns for each such Trust REMIC and for the Grantor Trust for the period ending with such termination,
and shall retain books and records with respect to such Trust REMICs and the Grantor Trust for the same period of retention for
which it maintains its own tax returns or such other reasonable period. The Trustee shall sign all Tax Returns and other reports
required by this Section.


 


(c)          The
Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interest of the Controlling Class and, if no such Certificateholder exercises
such option, the Special Servicer, and if the Special Servicer does not exercise such option, the Master Servicer may effect an
early termination of the Trust Fund, upon not less than 30 days’ prior Notice of Termination given to the Trustee, the Special
Servicer and the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after the Early Termination
Notice Date, by purchasing on such date all, but not less than all, of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust Fund, and
the Trust’s interest in all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan, at a purchase price, payable in cash, equal
to the sum of, without duplication:


 


(i)          100%
of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan included in the Trust as of the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated
Termination Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of principal);


 


(ii)          the
fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated
Termination Date, as determined by an Independent appraiser acceptable to the Master Servicer as of a date not more than 30 days
prior to the last day of the month preceding such Distribution Date;


 






    -460-


     


    

 


(iii)         all
unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage Loan as to which title to the related
Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination
Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and


 


(iv)         the
aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, and unpaid Servicing Compensation,
Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor Fees, Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fees, the CREFC® Intellectual
Property Royalty License Fees and Trust Fund expenses.


 


If
the Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interests in the Controlling Class, the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer purchases all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust
Fund in accordance with this Section 9.01(c), the Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interests in the
Controlling Class, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account,
as applicable, not later than the Master Servicer Remittance Date relating to the Anticipated Termination Date on which the final
distribution on the Certificates is to occur, an amount in immediately available funds equal to the above-described purchase price
(exclusive of any portion thereof payable to any Person other than the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 3.05(a) of
this Agreement, which portion shall be deposited in the Collection Account). In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer to
the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account, as applicable, all amounts required to be transferred
thereto on the Master Servicer Remittance Date from the Collection Account, together with any other amounts on deposit in the
Collection Account that would otherwise be held for future distribution. Upon confirmation by the Master Servicer in writing that
it has transferred all such amounts to the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian shall release or cause to be released to the
Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interests in the Controlling Class, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as applicable, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments
furnished to it by such purchasing party as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired
in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund, and the Trust Fund shall be liquidated in accordance with this Article
IX.


 


For
purposes of this Section 9.01, the Directing Holder with the consent of the Holders of the Controlling Class, shall act
on behalf of the Holders of the Controlling Class in purchasing the assets of the Trust Fund and terminating the Trust.


 


As
a condition to the purchase of the assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01(c), the purchaser shall deliver
to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an Opinion of Counsel, which shall be at the expense of such purchaser, stating
that such termination will be a “qualified liquidation” under Section 860F(a)(4)(A) of the Code. All costs and expenses
incurred by any and all parties to this Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and
other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01(c) shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights
hereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any determination made by an
Independent appraiser pursuant to this subsection (c).


 






    -461-


     


    

 


(d)          If
the Trust Fund has not been previously terminated pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 9.01, the Certificate
Administrator shall determine as soon as practicable the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Administrator reasonably anticipates,
based on information with respect to the Mortgage Loans previously provided to it, that the final distribution will be made to
the Holders of outstanding Certificates and the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests, notwithstanding that such distribution
may be insufficient to distribute in full the Certificate Balance of each Class of Certificates, together with amounts required
to be distributed on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(b) of this Agreement; provided, that, if no
such Classes of Certificates are then outstanding, the final distribution shall be made (i) to the Holders of the Class R Certificates
(in respect of the Class LTR Interest) of any amount remaining in the Collection Accounts, the Lower-Tier Distribution Account,
and (ii) to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class UTR Interest) of any amount remaining in the Upper-Tier
Distribution Account.


 


(e)          Notice
of any termination of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall be mailed by the Certificate Administrator to
Certificateholders (with a copy to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the related Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder (if any) and the 17g-5 Information
Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d)
of this Agreement)), at their addresses shown in the Certificate Registrar not more than 30 days, and not less than ten days,
prior to the Anticipated Termination Date. The notice mailed by the Certificate Administrator to Certificateholders shall:


 


(i)           specify
the Anticipated Termination Date on which the final distribution is anticipated to be made to Holders of Certificates of the Classes
specified therein;


 


(ii)          specify
the amount of any such final distribution, if known; and


 


(iii)         state
that the final distribution to Certificateholders will be made only upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office
of the Paying Agent therein specified.


 


If
the Trust Fund is not terminated on any Anticipated Termination Date for any reason, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly
mail notice thereof to each Certificateholder.


 


(f)         
 Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates
shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust
Fund shall terminate. If any Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to this Section
9.01 shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate
Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate
Register, to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Certificateholders
concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of

contacting
Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. If within two years after the second notice any Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable
to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until
the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator hereunder and the transfer of such amounts to a successor certificate
administrator and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No
interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Certificateholder’s
failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 9.01. Any amounts remaining
in the Excess Interest Distribution Account representing Excess Interest shall be distributed to the Holders of the Excess Interest
Certificates.


 


(g)          Following
the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the Class X-B Notional Amount and the Class X-D Notional Amount, and the aggregate
Certificate Balance of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and
Class D Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding
Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in
the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a) by giving written notice to all the parties hereto no later than
60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange; provided that such Sole Certificateholder pays to the Certificate Administrator
as additional compensation an amount equal to one day of interest calculated at the Prime Rate on the aggregate Certificate Balance
of the Principal Balance Certificates as of the first day of the current calendar month and such Sole Certificateholder pays to
the Master Servicer as additional compensation an amount equal to (i) the product of (a) the Prime Rate, (b) the aggregate Certificate
Balance of the then outstanding Certificates (other than any Class of Class X Certificates, the Class S Certificates and the Class
R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (c) three, divided by (ii) 360, for the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties
remaining in the Trust Fund and such payments shall be treated as made by the Sole Certificateholder directly to the Certificate
Administrator and the Master Servicer and not through or by either of the Trust REMICs. If the Sole Certificateholder elects to
exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S and Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans
and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Sole Certificateholder, not
later than the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, shall deposit in the Collection
Account an amount in immediately available funds equal to all amounts due and owing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee hereunder through the date of the liquidation
of the Trust Fund that may be withdrawn from the Collection Account, or an escrow account acceptable to the respective parties
hereto, pursuant to Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement or that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Accounts pursuant to Section
3.06(g) of this Agreement, but only to the extent that such amounts are not already on deposit in the Collection Account.
In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer all amounts required to be transferred to the Certificate Administrator for deposit
in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account on such Servicer Remittance Date from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05 of
this Agreement. Upon confirmation from the Certificate Administrator that such final deposits have been made and following the
surrender of all the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) on the final Distribution

assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Sole Certificateholder as shall be necessary to effectuate
transfer of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund and the Trust Fund shall be liquidated in accordance
with this Article IX. The remaining Mortgage Loans and REO Properties are deemed distributed to the Sole Certificateholder in
liquidation of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Article IX. Solely for federal income tax purposes, the Sole Certificateholder
shall be deemed to have purchased the assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC for an amount equal to the remaining Certificate Balance
of its Certificates (other than the Class S and Class R Certificates), plus accrued, unpaid interest with respect thereto, and
the Certificate Administrator shall credit such amounts against amounts distributable in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests
and such Certificates.

Section
10.01   Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness. Except with respect to Section 10.08, Section 10.11,
Section 10.13, Section 10.14, Section 10.15, Section 10.16 and Section 10.17, the parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that the purpose of this Article X is to facilitate compliance by the Depositor (and any Other Depositor
of any Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan) with the provisions of Regulation AB and related rules and
regulations of the Commission. None of the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee shall exercise its rights to
request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in reasonable good faith, or for purposes
other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and, in each case, the rules and regulations
of the Commission thereunder. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation
AB may change over time due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, and agree to comply, subject to
Section 10.02, with reasonable requests made by the Depositor (or any Other Depositor or Other Trustee of any Other Securitization
that includes a Serviced Companion Loan), the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee in reasonable good faith for delivery of
information under these provisions on the basis of such evolving interpretations of Regulation AB (to the extent such interpretations
require compliance and are not “grandfathered” and do not mandate compliance). In connection with the Benchmark 2018-B1

AB that includes a Serviced Companion Loan, subject to the preceding sentence, each of the parties to this Agreement shall cooperate

related Serviced Companion Loans, reasonably believed by the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the related
Other Depositor or the related Other Trustee, as applicable, in good faith to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.
Each party to this Agreement shall have a reasonable period of time to comply with any written request made under this Section
10.01, but in any event, shall, upon reasonable advance written request, provide information in sufficient time to allow the
Depositor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, to satisfy any related filing requirements.

such effect. Any reasonable cost and expense of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator in cooperating with such Other Depositor or Other Trustee of such Other Securitization

of their duties under this Section 10.06. The Certificate Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense,
damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such Form 10-D where such failure results
from the Certificate Administrator’s inability or failure to receive on a timely basis any information from any other party
hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct.


 


Form
10-D requires the registrant to indicate (by checking “yes” or “no”) that it “(1) has filed all
reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period
that the registrant was required to file such reports) and (2) has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days.”
The Depositor shall notify the Certificate Administrator in writing via email to cts.sec.notifications@wellsfargo.com,
no later than the 5th calendar day after the related Distribution Date during any year in which the Trust is required to file
a Form 10-D if the answer to the questions should be “no”; provided that if the failure of the Depositor to
have filed such required reports arises in connection with the securitization contemplated by this Agreement, then the Certificate
Administrator shall be deemed to have notice of such failure (only with respect to Exchange Act reports prepared or required to
be prepared and filed by the Certificate Administrator) without being notified by the Depositor; provided, further,
that in connection with the delivery of any notice contemplated by this sentence, the Depositor may instruct the Certificate Administrator
that such notice shall be effective for a period (not to exceed 12 months) from the date of such notice, in which case no further
notice from the Depositor shall be required during such specified period. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely
on such notifications in preparing, executing and/or filing any Form 10-D.

of rights under this Agreement, and (d) a description of the method other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners may use to
contact the requesting Certificateholder or Certificate Owner. It is hereby understood that a disclosure in substantially the
following form shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements in the preceding sentence:

forth in Section 10.10(b) of this Agreement. Promptly after filing with the Commission, the Certificate Administrator will

Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Certificate Administrator of its duties under this Section 10.09 related
to the timely preparation and filing of Form 8-K is contingent upon such parties observing all applicable deadlines in the performance
of their duties under this Section 10.09. The Certificate Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense,
damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for execution and/or timely file such
Form 8-K, where such failure results from the Certificate Administrator’s inability or failure to receive approved Form
8-K Disclosure Information within the applicable timeframes set forth in this Section 10.09 and not resulting from the
Certificate Administrator’s own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (provided that to the extent that the Certificate
Administrator is notified of such Reportable Event and it does not receive the necessary Form 8–K Disclosure Information,
it will notify the Depositor that it has not received such information and further provided that the limitation on liability
provided by this sentence shall not be applicable if the Reportable Event relates to the Certificate Administrator or any party
that the Certificate Administrator has engaged to perform its obligations under this Agreement).


 


In
addition to the foregoing, as to any resignation, removal, succession, merger or consolidation of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer that would constitute a Reportable Event, upon at least 4 Business Days prior notice of the anticipated effective date
of such event, the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor shall cooperate in a timely manner with the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or any other Person pursuing such resignation, removal, succession, merger or consolidation, as applicable, in
connection with the Depositor’s or the


 



    -480-


     


    

 


Certificate
Administrator’s obligation to file any related required Form 8-K relating to this Trust on the anticipated effective date
of such event.


 


For
so long as the Trust is subject to the reporting obligations of the Exchange Act, with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan
serviced under an Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, no resignation, removal or replacement of any party to such Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement that would be required to be reported on a Form 8-K relating to this Trust shall become effective until
the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to this Section 10.09.


 


Section
10.10  Suspension of Exchange Act Filings; Incomplete Exchange Act Filings; Amendments to Exchange Act Reports.
(a) If at any time the Trust is permitted to suspend its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act, on or before January 30
of the first year in which the Certificate Administrator is able to do so under applicable law, the Depositor shall direct the
Certificate Administrator to prepare and file any form necessary to be filed with the Commission to suspend such reporting obligations.
With respect to any reporting period occurring after the filing of such form, except with respect to the Other Securitizations,
the obligations of the parties to this Agreement under Section 10.01, Section 10.03, Section 10.06, Section
10.07, Section 10.08 and Section 10.09 with respect to the Trust shall be suspended. The Certificate Administrator
shall provide prompt notice to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the
Asset Representations Reviewer and the Mortgage Loan Sellers that such form has been filed.


 


(b)          If
the Certificate Administrator is unable to timely file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, Form 10-D,
Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K required to be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure information either was not delivered
to it or was delivered to it after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement or for any other reason, the Certificate
Administrator shall promptly notify (which notice (which may be sent by fax or by email notwithstanding the provisions of Section
12.04) shall include the identity of those Reporting Servicers who either did not deliver such information or delivered such
information to it after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement) the Depositor and each Reporting Servicer that failed
to make such delivery. In the case of Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE and Form 10-K, each such Reporting Servicer shall cooperate with
the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator to prepare and file a Form 12b-25 and a Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A and Form 10-K/A
as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Certificate Administrator shall, upon
receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the approval and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure
information on the next Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE that is required to be filed on behalf of the Trust. In the event that any previously
filed Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Depositor
and such other parties as needed and such parties shall cooperate to prepare any necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A
or Form 10-K/A. In the event that any Reporting Servicer receives notice from the applicable parties to any Other Securitization
that any previously filed Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K needs to be amended, such party shall cooperate in preparation
of any necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A or Form 10-K/A. Any Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D,
Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K shall be signed by the Depositor. The parties to this agreement acknowledge that the


 



    -481-


     


    

 


performance
by the Certificate Administrator of its duties under this Section 10.10 related to the timely preparation and filing of
a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K is contingent upon the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer and the Depositor performing their duties under this Section. The Certificate Administrator shall have no liability for
any loss, expense, damage or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file any such
Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Forms 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Certificate
Administrator’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto needed to
prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K, not
resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

review, such Certifying Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement, or the applicable sub-servicing agreement
or primary servicing agreement in the case of an Additional Servicer, in all material respects throughout such reporting period,
or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to
such officer and the nature and status thereof.

that includes a Serviced Companion Loan) that a Form 10-K is not required to be filed in respect of the Trust (or, in the case
of a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Other Securitization that includes such Serviced Companion Loan) for the preceding calendar
year. If any Certifying Servicer is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any applicable Sub-Servicing
Agreement, as the case may be, such Certifying Servicer shall provide the Officer’s Certificate pursuant to this Section
10.11 with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement, as the

and what Relevant Servicing Criteria will be addressed in the report on assessment of compliance prepared by such Servicing Function
Participant. When the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Trustee, the Operating

Administrator (and each Other Trustee), each such party shall also at such time, if it has received the assessment (and attestation
pursuant to Section 10.13) of each Servicing Function Participant engaged by it, include such assessment (and attestation)

Promptly
after receipt of each such report on assessment of compliance, (i) the Depositor (and any Other Depositor for any Other Securitization

Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and any

parties hereto acknowledge that a material instance of noncompliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria reported on an assessment
of compliance pursuant to this Section 10.12 by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator,
the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Custodian shall not, as a result of being so reported, in and of itself, constitute

(or in such Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as the case may be) and the attestation described in Section 10.13.
The Master Servicer shall promptly forward to the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor any such assessment of compliance
received by the Master Servicer. Until such time as the Certificate Administrator receives notice that the Non-Serviced Mortgage
Loan Service Providers no longer have a continuing obligation under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement related to an Other
Securitization that includes the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan to provide to the Trust an annual report on assessment of
compliance as described in this Section and an attestation as described in Section 10.13 for any year that the Trust formed

a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a report to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator,
the Depositor (and to any Other Depositor and Other Trustee for any Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan),
the Operating Advisor (in the case of the Special Servicer only) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such

an assessment from such Reporting Servicer of its compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria in all material respects, and
(ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards for attestation engagements issued or
adopted by the PCAOB, it is expressing an opinion as to whether such Reporting Servicer’s compliance with the Relevant Servicing
Criteria was fairly stated in all material respects, or it cannot express an overall opinion regarding such Reporting Servicer’s
assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria. If an overall opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public
accounting firm shall state in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Such report must be available for general
use and not contain restricted use language. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be required to deliver an annual
independent public accountants’ servicing report with respect to any period during which there was no Relevant Servicing

of any material instance of noncompliance by such Reporting Servicer with the Servicing Criteria applicable to such person, as
the case may be, in the fulfillment of any of such Reporting Servicer’s obligations hereunder or under any applicable sub-servicing
agreement or primary servicing agreement, and (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall confirm that each assessment submitted
pursuant to Section 10.12 is coupled with an attestation meeting the requirements of this Section and notify the Depositor (and
any Other Depositor related to an Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan) of any exceptions; provided, that
the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible for confirming whether any particular Reporting Servicer has certified
to all of the Relevant Servicing Criteria applicable to it. No Reporting Servicer shall be required to deliver, or to endeavor
to cause the delivery of, such reports until April 15 in any given year so long as it has received written confirmation from the
Depositor that a Form 10-K is not required to be filed in respect of the Trust (or, in the case of a Serviced Companion Loan,
the related Other Securitization that includes such Serviced Companion Loan) for the preceding calendar year. If any Reporting
Servicer is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement or primary
servicing agreement, as the case may be, such Reporting Servicer shall provide the report pursuant to this Section 10.13
with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement or primary servicing

arising out of the foregoing and the Depositor shall consult with such party with respect to any litigation or audit strategy,
as applicable, in connection with the foregoing and any potential settlement terms related thereto, (iii) the failure of any Servicing
Function Participant or Additional Servicer retained by it (other than a Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer) to perform its obligations

by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian, the Certificate
Administrator, the Trustee, a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, as applicable (“Affected Reporting

are received subsequent to the Depositor’s or such Other Depositor’s, as applicable, filing of such report, the Depositor
shall (or such Other Depositor may) promptly provide to such Affected Reporting Party any such comments which relate to such Affected
Reporting Party. Upon receipt of such comments, such Affected Reporting Party shall be responsible for timely preparing a written
response to the Commission for inclusion in the Depositor’s or such Other Depositor’s, as applicable, response to
the Commission, unless such Affected Reporting Party elects, with the consent of the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable

Depositor
(or such Other Depositor, as applicable) and the Affected Reporting Party shall cooperate and coordinate with one another with
respect to any requests made to the Commission for extension of time for submitting a response or compliance. All respective reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable (including reasonable legal
fees and expenses of outside counsel to the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable), in connection with the foregoing
(other than those costs and expenses required to be at the Depositor’s or such Other Depositor’s expense, as applicable
and as set forth above) and any amendments to any reports filed with the Commission related thereto shall be promptly paid by
the applicable Affected Reporting Party upon receipt of an itemized invoice from the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable.

The

and the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Servicing Function Participant (other than any party to
this Agreement) with which it has entered into a servicing relationship with respect to the Serviced Mortgage Loans to indemnify
and hold harmless each Certification Party from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and
expenses and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses incurred by such Certification Party arising out of (i) a breach
of its obligations to provide any of the annual compliance statements or annual assessment of servicing criteria or attestation
reports pursuant to this Agreement, or the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement, as applicable or (ii) any Deficient Exchange Act
Deliverable.


 


If
the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Certification Party, then the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the
Trustee, each Additional Servicer or other Servicing Function Participant (the “Performing Party”) shall, and
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator

into a servicing relationship (other than a party to this Agreement) with respect to the Serviced Mortgage Loans to contribute
to the amount paid or payable to the Certification Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Certification
Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Certification Party on the one hand and the Performing
Party on the other in connection with a breach of the Performing Party’s obligations pursuant to this Article X.
The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator
and the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Servicing Function Participant (other than any party to
this Agreement) with which it has entered into a servicing relationship with respect to the Serviced Mortgage Loans to agree to
the foregoing indemnification and contribution obligations.


 


Promptly

respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify in writing the indemnifying party of the commencement


 



    -488-


     


    

 


thereof;
but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified
party under this Agreement except to the extent that such omission to notify materially prejudices the indemnifying party. In
case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, after the indemnifying party has been notified of the commencement
of such action, such indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein (at its own expense) and, to the extent that
it may wish, shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof (jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified) with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and
after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to so assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying
party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any expenses subsequently incurred in connection with the defense thereof
other than reasonable costs of investigation. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its
own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying
party and the indemnified party shall have agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding
(including any impleaded parties and, in the case of an investigation by the Commission, any parties that are, or whose reporting
materials are, the subject of such investigation) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation
of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them or (iii)
the indemnifying party fails within a reasonable period of time to designate counsel that is reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for
fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one jurisdiction separate from their own
counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction
arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of
any proceeding effected without its written consent. However, if settled with such consent, the indemnifying party shall indemnify
the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement to the extent that the indemnifying
party is otherwise required to do so under this Agreement. If an indemnifying party assumes the defense of any proceeding, it
shall be entitled to settle such proceeding with the consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) or, if such settlement (i) provides for an unconditional release of the indemnified party in connection with
all matters relating to the proceeding that have been asserted against the indemnified party in such proceeding by the other parties
to such settlement and (ii) does not require an admission of fault by the indemnified party, without the consent of the indemnified
party.

Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event, as applicable, pursuant to the second
clause of the definition of “Master Servicer Termination Event” or “Special Servicer Termination Event,”
as applicable, nor shall any such party be deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, during any grace period provided
for in such second clause; provided, that if any such party fails to comply with the requirements of this Article X
by the expiration of any applicable grace period such failure shall constitute a Servicer Termination Event with respect to
such party;

Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event, as applicable, pursuant to the last
clause of the definition of “Master Servicer Termination Event” or “Special Servicer Termination Event,”

only be required to forward any such notice to be delivered to the Master Servicer to no more than three e-mail addresses in the
aggregate in order to fulfill its notification requirements as set forth in the preceding sentence and/or under the provisions

respectively, for the failure of any Servicing Function Participant or Sub-Servicing Entity to deliver any Exchange Act reporting
items pursuant to this Article X.


 


Section
10.17   Termination of the Certificate Administrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, the Depositor may direct the Trustee to, and the Trustee shall upon such direction, terminate the Certificate
Administrator upon five Business Days’ notice if the Certificate Administrator fails to comply with any of its obligations
under this Article X; provided that (a) such termination shall not be effective until a successor certificate administrator
shall have accepted the appointment, (b) the Certificate Administrator may not be terminated if it cannot perform its obligations
due to its failure to properly prepare or file on a timely basis any Form 8-K, Form 10-K, Form 10-D or Form ABS-EE or any amendments
to such forms or any Form 12b-25 where such failure results from the Certificate Administrator’s inability or failure to
receive, within the exact time frames set forth in this Agreement any information, approval, direction or signature from any other
party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file any such Form 8-K, Form 10-K, Form 10-D or Form ABS-EE or any amendments

on or prior to the dates by which such obligations are to be performed pursuant to, and as set forth in, such Sections the
Certificate Administrator subsequently complies with such obligations before the Depositor gives written notice to it that it
is terminated in accordance with this Section 10.17 and (d) the Certificate Administrator may not be terminated if the
Certificate Administrator’s failure to comply does not cause it to fail in its obligations to timely file the related Form
8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K, as the case may be, by the related deadline for filing such Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form
ABS-EE or Form 10-K, then the Depositor shall cease to have the right to terminate the Certificate Administrator under this Section
10.17 on the date on which such Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K is so filed.


 


Article
XI



THE ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEWER


 


Section
11.01   Asset Review.


 


(a)          On
or prior to each Distribution Date, based either on the CREFC® Delinquent Loan Status Report or the CREFC®
Loan Periodic Update File, the Certificate Administrator shall determine if an Asset Review Trigger has occurred. If
an Asset Review Trigger is determined to have occurred, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide


 



    -491-


     


    

 


notice
to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Controlling Class Representative and all
Certificateholders and each other party to this Agreement. Any notice required to be delivered to the Certificateholders pursuant
to this Article XI shall be delivered by the Certificate Administrator by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s
Website, by mailing such notice to their addresses appearing in the Certificate Register in the case of Individual Certificates
and by delivering such notice via the Depository in the case of Book-Entry Certificates. The Certificate Administrator shall include
in the Form 10-D relating to the reporting period in which the Asset Review Trigger occurred the following date a statement describing
the events that caused the Asset Review Trigger to occur: “As of the [Date of Distribution], the following mortgage loans
identified below are 60 or more days delinquent and an Asset Review Trigger as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
has occurred.” On each Distribution Date after providing such notice to Certificateholders, the Certificate Administrator,
based on information provided to it by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, shall determine whether (1) any additional
Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Mortgage Loan, (2) any Mortgage Loan has ceased to be a Delinquent Mortgage Loan and (3)
an Asset Review Trigger has ceased to exist, and, if there is an occurrence of any of the events or circumstances identified in
clauses (1), (2) or (3), deliver such information in a written notice (which may be via email) substantially
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit LL within 2 Business Days to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Controlling Class Representative.


 


If
Certificateholders evidencing not less than 5% of the Voting Rights of the Certificates deliver to the Certificate Administrator,
within 90 days after the filing of the Form 10-D reporting the occurrence of an Asset Review Trigger, a written direction requesting
a vote to commence an Asset Review (such written direction, the “Asset Review Vote Election”), then upon receipt
of the Asset Review Vote Election, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations
Reviewer and to all Certificateholders and to conduct a solicitation of votes to authorize an Asset Review. Upon the affirmative
vote to authorize an Asset Review by Holders of Certificates evidencing at least a majority of an Asset Review Quorum within 150
days of receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election (an “Affirmative Asset Review Vote”), the Certificate Administrator
shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all parties to this Agreement, the Underwriters, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the
Controlling Class Representative, the Risk Retention Consultation Party and the Certificateholders. In the event an Affirmative
Asset Review Vote has not occurred within such 150-day period following the receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, no Certificateholder
may request a vote or cast a vote for an Asset Review and the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any
Delinquent Mortgage Loan unless and until (A) an additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Mortgage Loan after the expiration
of such 150-day period, (B) an additional Asset Review Trigger has occurred as a result or otherwise is in effect, (C) the Certificate
Administrator has timely received any Asset Review Vote Election after the occurrence of the events described in clauses (A) and
(B) in this sentence and (D) an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has occurred within 150 days after the Asset Review Vote Election
described in clause (C) in this sentence. After the occurrence of any Asset Review Vote Election or an Affirmative Asset Review
Vote, no Certificateholder may make any additional Asset Review Vote Election except as described in the immediately preceding
sentence. Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such
vote will be paid as an expense of the Trust from the Collection Account. The Certificate

Administrator
shall be entitled to administer any vote in connection with the foregoing through an agent.


 


(b)          (i)
Upon receipt of such notice of an Affirmative Asset Review Vote (the “Asset Review Notice”), the Custodian
(with respect to clauses (1) – (5) for Performing Loans), the Master Servicer (with respect to clauses
(6) and (7) for Performing Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), in each case
to the extent in such party’s possession, will be required to promptly, but in no event later than 10 Business Days (except
with respect to clause (7)) after receipt of such notice from the Certificate Administrator, provide the following materials
to the asset representations reviewer (collectively, with the Diligence Files, a copy of the Prospectus, a copy of each related
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and a copy of this Agreement, the “Review Materials”):


 


(1)      a
copy of an assignment of the Mortgage in favor of the Trustee (or the related Other Trustee, in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage
Loan), with evidence of recording thereon, for each Delinquent Mortgage Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;


 


(2)      a
copy of an assignment of any related assignment of leases (if such item is a document separate from the Mortgage) in favor of
the Trustee (or the related Other Trustee, in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), with evidence of recording thereon, related
to each Delinquent Mortgage Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;


 


(3)      a
copy of the assignment of all unrecorded documents relating to each Delinquent Mortgage Loan that is subject to an Asset Review,
if not already covered pursuant to items (1) or (2) above;


 


(4)      a
copy of all filed copies (bearing evidence of filing) or evidence of filing of any UCC financing statements related to each Delinquent
Mortgage Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;


 


(5)      a
copy of an assignment in favor of the Trustee (or the related Other Trustee, in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) of any
financing statement executed and filed in the relevant jurisdiction related to each Delinquent Mortgage Loan that is subject to
an Asset Review;


 


(6)      a
copy of any notice previously delivered by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of any alleged defect or
breach with respect to any Delinquent Loan; and


 


(7)      any
other related documents that were entered into or delivered in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan that are
necessary in connection with the Asset Representations Reviewer’s completion of any Asset Review and that are that are reasonably
requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer in the time frame and as otherwise described below.


 


(ii)          If,
as part of an Asset Review of any Mortgage Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that it is missing any documents
that are required to be a part of the Review Materials for such Mortgage Loan or which were entered into or


 



    -493-


     


    

 


delivered
in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, in each case that are necessary to review and assess one or more documents
comprising the Diligence File in connection with its completion of any Test, then the Asset Representations Reviewer shall promptly,
but in no event later than 10 Business Days after receipt of the Review Materials identified in clauses (1) through (5)
above, notify (in writing) that the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect
to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, of such missing documents, and provide a written request (in accordance with this
Agreement) that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, promptly, but in no event later than 10 Business Days
after receipt of such notification from the Asset Representations Reviewer, to deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer such
missing documents to the extent in its possession; provided that any such notification and/or request shall be in writing,
specifically identify the documents being requested and sent to the notice address for the related party set forth in Section
12.05 of this Agreement. In the event any such missing documents are not provided by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer,
as applicable, within such 10 Business Day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such documents from the related
Mortgage Loan Seller. The Mortgage Loan Seller will be required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to deliver
such additional documents only to the extent in the possession of such Mortgage Loan Seller; provided that the Mortgage
Loan Seller shall not be required to deliver information that is proprietary to the related originator or Mortgage Loan Seller
or any draft documents or privileged or internal communications.


 


(iii)         The
Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider and rely upon information furnished to it by a Person
that is not a party to this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Seller, and shall do so only if such information can be independently
verified (without unreasonable effort or expense to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and is determined by the Asset Representations
Reviewer in its good faith and sole discretion to be relevant to the Asset Review conducted pursuant to this Section 11.01
hereof (such information, “Unsolicited Information”).


 


(iv)         Upon
receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of the Asset Review Notice and access to the Diligence File posted to the Secure
Data Room with respect to a Delinquent Mortgage Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer, as an independent contractor, shall
commence a review of the compliance of each Delinquent Mortgage Loan with the representations and warranties related to that Delinquent
Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Asset Review Standard and the procedures set forth on Exhibit JJ hereto (such review,
the “Asset Review”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each
representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Delinquent Mortgage Loan in accordance
with the procedures set forth on Exhibit JJ (each such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however,
the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, modify any Test and/or associated Review Materials described
in Exhibit JJ, if, and only to the extent, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard
that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance
with the Asset Review Standard. Once an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan is completed, no further Asset


 



    -494-


     


    

 


Review
shall be required in respect of, or performed on, such Mortgage Loan notwithstanding that such Mortgage Loan may continue to be
a Delinquent Mortgage Loan or again become a Delinquent Mortgage Loan at a time when a new Asset Review Trigger occurs and a New
Affirmative Asset Review Vote is obtained subsequent to the occurrence of such New Asset Review Trigger.


 


(v)          The
Asset Representations Reviewer will not be permitted to review any information other than (x) the Review Materials, and (y) if
applicable, Unsolicited Information.


 


(vi)         The
Asset Representations Reviewer may, absent manifest error and subject to the Asset Review Standard, (i) assume, without independent
investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects and (ii) conclusively
rely on such Review Materials.


 


(vii)        If
the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that the Review Materials are insufficient to complete a Test and such missing documentation
is not delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer (with respect
to Performing Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) within 10 days of the written request
by the Asset Representations Reviewer, then the Asset Representations Reviewer shall list such missing documents in a preliminary
report setting forth the preliminary results of the application of the Tests and the reasons why such missing documents are necessary
to complete a Test and (if the Asset Representations Reviewer has so concluded) that the absence of such documents shall be deemed
to be a failure of such Test. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall provide such preliminary report to the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and to the related Mortgage Loan Seller no later than 60 days after the date on which
access to the Diligence Files in the Secure Data Room is made available to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate
Administrator. If the preliminary report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any
Test, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have 90 days (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise
refute the failure. Any documents provided or explanations given to support a conclusion that the representation and warranty
has not failed a Test or that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test shall be promptly
delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer.


 


(viii)       The
Asset Representations Reviewer shall, within the later of (x) 60 days after the date on which access to the Diligence Files in
the Secure Data Room is made available to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator or (y) 10 days after
the expiration of the Cure/Contest Period, complete an Asset Review with respect to each Delinquent Mortgage Loan and deliver
(i) a report setting forth the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions as to whether or not it has determined
there is any evidence of a failure of any Test based on the Asset Review and a statement that the Asset Representations Reviewer’s
findings and conclusions set forth in such report were not influenced by any third party (an “Asset Review Report”)
to each party to this Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller for each Delinquent Mortgage Loan and the Controlling
Class Representative and (ii) a summary of the Asset


 



    -495-


     


    

 


Representations
Reviewer’s conclusions included in such Asset Review Report (an “Asset Review Report Summary”) to the
Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The period of time by which the Asset Review
Report must be completed and delivered may be extended by up to an additional 30 days, upon written notice to the parties to this
Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, if the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review
Standard that such additional time is required due to the characteristics of the Mortgage Loan and/or the Mortgaged Property or
Mortgaged Properties. In no event may the Asset Representations Reviewer determine whether any Test failure constitutes a Material
Breach or Material Defect, or whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller,
which, in each case, shall be a responsibility of the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Loans) or the Special Servicer
(with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) pursuant to Section 2.03(g) of this Agreement.


 


(ix)          In
addition, in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer does not receive any documentation that it requested from the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or the related Mortgage Loan Seller in sufficient time to allow the Asset Representations
Reviewer to complete its Asset Review and deliver an Asset Review Report (as such date may have been extended pursuant to this
Agreement), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare the Asset Review Report solely based on the documentation received
by the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the related Delinquent Mortgage Loan, and the Asset Representations Reviewer
shall have no responsibility to independently obtain any such documentation from any party to this Agreement.


 


(x)          Within
45 days after receipt of an Asset Review Report with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer (with respect to any Performing
Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall determine whether at that time, based on the Servicing
Standard, whether there exists a Material Breach or Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan. If the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines that a Material Breach or Material Defect exists, the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, as applicable, shall enforce the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Material Breach
or Material Defect in accordance with Section 2.03(d).


 


(c)          The
Asset Representations Reviewer and its Affiliates shall keep all information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information”
confidential and shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders), other than (1) to
the extent expressly required by this Agreement in an Asset Review Report or otherwise, to the other parties to this Agreement
with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information or (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception.
Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Asset Representations Reviewer with a notice stating
that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior
written consent of the Special Servicer other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. The Asset Representations Reviewer
shall keep all documents and information received by the Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with an Asset Review that
are provided by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer


 



    -496-


     


    

 


and
the Special Servicer confidential and shall not disclose such documents or information except (i) for purposes of complying with
its duties and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) if such documents or information become generally available and known to
the public other than as a result of a disclosure directly or indirectly by the Asset Representations Reviewer, (iii) if it is
reasonable and necessary for the Asset Representations Reviewer to disclose such documents or information in working with legal
counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies, (iv) if such documents or information was already known
to the Asset Representations Reviewer and not otherwise subject to a confidentiality obligation and/or (v) if the Asset Representations
Reviewer is required by law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to disclose such document or information.


 


(d)          The
Asset Representations Reviewer may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors so long as the related agreements or arrangements
with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 11.01; provided that no agent
or subcontractor may (1) be affiliated with any Mortgage Loan Seller, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate
Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Holder or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation
or other remuneration by an Underwriter, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the
Trustee, the Directing Holder or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect
to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall
remain obligated and primarily liable for any Asset Review required hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification
from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Asset
Representations Reviewer alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall
be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Asset Representations
Reviewer by such agent or subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.


 


Section
11.02   Payment of Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fees and Expenses; Limitation of Liability.


 


(a)          As
compensation for the performance of its duties hereunder, upon the completion of any Asset Review with respect to a Delinquent
Mortgage Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to a fee that is a reasonable and customary hourly fee charged
by the Asset Representations Reviewer for similar consulting assignments at the time of such review and any related costs and
expenses; provided that the total payment to the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be greater than the Asset Representations
Reviewer Fee Cap (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee”). With respect to an individual Asset
Review Trigger and the Mortgage Loans that are Delinquent Mortgage Loans and are subject to an Asset Review (the “Subject
Loans”), the “Asset Representations Reviewer Fee Cap” shall equal the sum of: (i) $10,250 multiplied
by the number of Subject Loans, plus (ii) $2,000 per Mortgaged Property relating to the Subject Loans in excess of one Mortgaged
Property per Subject Loan, plus (iii) $2,000 per Mortgaged Property relating to a Subject Loan subject to a ground lease, plus
(iv) $1,500 per Mortgaged Property relating to a Subject Loan subject to a


 



    -497-


     


    

 


franchise
agreement, hotel management agreement or hotel license agreement, subject, in the case of each of clauses (i) through (iv),
to adjustments on the basis of the year-end Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, or other similar index if the Consumer
Price Index for All Urban Consumers is no longer calculated, for the year of the Closing Date and for the year of the occurrence
of the Asset Review.


 


(b)          [Reserved.]


 


(c)          The
related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to each Delinquent Mortgage Loan that is subject to an Asset Review shall pay the portion
of the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee attributable to the Delinquent Mortgage Loan(s) contributed by it, as allocated
on the basis of the hourly charges and costs and expenses incurred with respect to its related Delinquent Mortgage Loans; provided
that if the total charge for the Asset Representations Reviewer on an hourly fee plus costs and expenses basis would exceed
the Asset Representations Reviewer Fee Cap, each Mortgage Loan Seller’s required payment shall be reduced pro rata
according to its proportion of the total charges until the aggregate amount owed by all Mortgage Loan Sellers is equal to the
Asset Representations Reviewer Fee Cap; provided, however, that if the related Mortgage Loan Seller is insolvent
or fails to pay such amount within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee shall be paid by
the Trust following delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of such insolvency or failure to pay such amount; provided, further, that
notwithstanding any payment of such fee by the issuing entity to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee shall remain an
obligation of the related Mortgage Loan Seller and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, to the extent
consistent with the Servicing Standard, pursue remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller in order to seek recovery of such amounts
from such Mortgage Loan Seller or its insolvency estate. The Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to a
Delinquent Mortgage Loan shall be included in the Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan that was the subject of a completed Asset
Review and that is repurchased by the related Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


(d)          The
Asset Representations Reviewer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed
by this Agreement.


 


(e)          The
Asset Representations Reviewer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with the sale or transfer
of all or substantially all of its Asset Representations Reviewer portfolio, provided that: (i) the purchaser or transferee
accepting such assignment and delegation (A) is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, organized and doing business under
the laws of the United States of America, any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, authorized under
such laws to perform the duties of the asset representations reviewer resulting from a merger, consolidation or succession that
is permitted under this Agreement, (B) executes and delivers to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an agreement that
contains an assumption by such person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be
performed or observed by the asset representations reviewer under this Agreement from and after the date of such agreement and

under this Agreement from personnel involved in such Affiliate’s investment activities and (B) prevent such Affiliate and
its personnel from gaining access to information regarding the Trust and the Asset Representations Reviewer and its personnel
from gaining access to such Affiliate’s information regarding its investment activities.

been given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Trustee or to the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee by the
Holders of Certificates having greater than 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights of all then outstanding Certificates; provided
that if such failure is capable of being cured and the Asset Representations Reviewer is diligently pursuing such cure, such
30 day period shall be extended by an additional period of 30 days;


 






    -499-


     


    

 


(ii)          any
failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform in accordance with the Asset Review Standard in any material respect,
which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date written notice of such failure, requiring the same
to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;


 


(iii)         any
failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, which failure shall continue unremedied
for a period of 30 days after the date written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset
Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;


 


(iv)         a
decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under
any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver
or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the
winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Asset Representations Reviewer, and such decree
or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days;


 


(v)          the
Asset Representations Reviewer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee
in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of
or relating to the Asset Representations Reviewer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or


 


(vi)         the
Asset Representations Reviewer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition
to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors,
or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.


 


Upon
receipt by the Certificate Administrator (which shall be simultaneously delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer) of written
notice of the occurrence of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly
provide written notice to all Certificateholders in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section
11.01(a), unless the Certificate Administrator has received written notice that such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination
Event has been remedied. If an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case,
so long as such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee (i) may or (ii)
upon the written direction of holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights shall, terminate all of
the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued
prior to such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other
than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Asset Representations
Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall bear all reasonable costs and expenses of itself and of each other party to
this Agreement in connection with its termination due to an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor and each Sponsor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the


 






    -500-


     


    

 


Certificate
Administrator and the Trustee of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event of which it becomes aware.


 


(b)          Upon
(i) the written direction of holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights requesting a vote to terminate
and replace the Asset Representations Reviewer with a proposed successor Asset Representations Reviewer that is an Eligible Asset
Representations Reviewer and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses
to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall
promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations Reviewer and to all Certificateholders by (i) posting such
notice on its internet website, and (ii) mailing such notice to all Certificateholders at their addresses appearing in the Certificate
Register and to the Asset Representations Reviewer. Upon the written direction of holders of Certificates evidencing at least
75% of a Certificateholder Quorum, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations
Reviewer under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination and other
than indemnification rights arising out of events occurring prior to such termination) by notice in writing to the Asset Representations
Reviewer and appoint the proposed successor. As between the Asset Representations Reviewer, on the one hand, and the Certificateholders,
on the other, the Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the
termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer. In the event that holders of the certificates evidencing at least 75% of a
Certificateholder Quorum elect to remove the asset representations reviewer without cause and appoint a successor, the successor
Asset Representations Reviewer shall be responsible for all expenses necessary to effect the transfer of responsibilities from
its predecessor.


 


(c)          On
or after the receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of written notice of termination, subject to this Section 11.05,
all of its authority and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Asset Representations
Reviewer shall execute any and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all other acts or things reasonably necessary
or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days
after (1) the Asset Representations Reviewer resigns pursuant to Section 11.03 of this Agreement or (2) the Trustee delivers
such written notice of termination to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall appoint a successor Asset Representations
Reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of an
Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator,
the Directing Holder and each Certificateholder within one Business Day of such appointment.


 


The
Asset Representations Reviewer shall at all times be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and if the Asset Representations
Reviewer ceases to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall immediately resign
under Section 11.03 of this Agreement and the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to appoint a successor
Asset Representations Reviewer subject to and in accordance with this Section 11.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the Trustee is unable to find a successor Asset Representations Reviewer within 30 days of the termination of the Asset Representations


 






    -501-


     


    

 


Reviewer,
the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure to identify and appoint
a successor asset representations reviewer so long as the Trustee uses commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a search for
a successor asset representations reviewer and such failure is not a result of the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.


 


(d)          Upon
any termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer and appointment of a successor to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the
Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate
Administrator (who shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Certificateholders), the Operating Advisor,
the Sponsors, the Depositor and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Holder
and each Rating Agency. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer is terminated, all of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination
(including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights
(arising out of events occurring prior to such termination).

(1)              reduce

or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating
agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied
with respect to the Certificates).


 


Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend this Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions (i) to
such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC or
the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or local
taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel
(obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.


 


If
neither the Depositor nor any successor thereto, if any, is in existence, any amendment under this Section 12.08 shall
be effective with the consent of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in writing, and to the extent required by this Section 12.08, the
Certificateholders and Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders.


 


It
shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 12.08 to approve the particular form of
any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The method of obtaining
such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders and, if applicable, Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholders, shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe; provided, that
such method shall always be by affirmation and in writing.


 


Notwithstanding
any contrary provision of this Agreement, no amendment shall be made to this Agreement or any Custodial Agreement unless the Trustee
and the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the Trust Fund (and, in the case of any
Whole Loan, any such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the expense allocation provision of the related Intercreditor
Agreement) confirming that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement and that all conditions precedent with
respect thereto


 






    -517-


     


    

 


have
been satisfied, respectively, hereunder and such amendment will not cause the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC to fail
to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor
trust, or cause a tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund or any such Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust.


 


Prior
to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or any Custodial Agreement, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the
Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer may request and shall be entitled
to rely conclusively upon an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate, at the expense of the party requesting such
amendment (or, if such amendment is required to maintain the rating issued by any Rating Agency or requested by the Trustee for
any purpose described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first sentence of this Section 12.08 (which do not modify or
otherwise relate solely to the obligations, duties or rights of the Trustee), then at the expense of the Trust Fund (and, in the
case of any Whole Loan, any such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the expense allocation provision of the related
Intercreditor Agreement)) confirming that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement and that
all conditions precedent with respect thereto have been satisfied. The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor
or the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Trustee’s,
the Certificate Administrator’s, the Operating Advisor’s or the Asset Representations Reviewer’s own rights,
duties or immunities under this Agreement.


 


Notwithstanding
any contrary provision contained in this Agreement, no amendment shall be made to this Agreement (i) which adversely affects the
rights, including (without limitation) as a third-party beneficiary hereunder, and/or obligations (including, without limitation,
in the case of a Mortgage Loan Seller, under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) of any Mortgage Loan Seller, Initial
Purchaser or Underwriter without the written consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller, Initial Purchaser or Underwriter, as applicable
or (ii) which adversely affects (as determined by the applicable Companion Loan Noteholder in good faith) the rights and/or obligations
of any Companion Loan Noteholder without the written consent of such Companion Loan Noteholder.


 


Promptly
after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall post a copy of the same to the Certificate
Administrator’s Website, deliver a copy of the same to the 17g-5 Information Provider who shall post a copy of the same
on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement, and thereafter, the Certificate
Administrator shall furnish a written notification of the substance of such amendment to each Certificateholder, the Depositor,
the Master Servicer (who shall promptly forward such notification to each Serviced Companion Loan Holder, Other Depositor, Other
Servicer, Other Special Servicer and Other Trustee), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer,
the Trustee, each Mortgage Loan Seller, the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers.


 


In
addition, within one (1) Business Day following the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the party requesting such amendment
shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) such amendment (in EDGAR Compatible Format) to each Serviced Companion Loan Holder, Other
Depositor, Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer and Other Trustee.


 






    -518-


     


    

 


Notwithstanding
any contrary provision contained in this Agreement, if one but not all of the Notes evidencing a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased
by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto (at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment), without the consent of any Certificateholder, to add or modify provisions relating to the applicable Repurchased
Note for purposes of the servicing and administration of such Repurchased Note, provided that the amendment shall not adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders, as evidenced by a No Downgrade Confirmation from each
Rating Agency (obtained at the expense of the repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller) with respect to such amendment (or, if no such
No Downgrade Confirmation is actually received, by an opinion of counsel to such effect). Prior to the effectiveness of such amendment,
if one but not all of the Notes with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the terms of Article III shall govern
the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan.


 


Section
12.09     Confirmation of Intent. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance
of the Trust Fund (including the Mortgage Loans) by the Depositor to the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders as contemplated
by this Agreement be treated for all purposes as a sale by the Depositor of the Trust Fund to the Trustee. It is, further, not
the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee to secure
a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However, if, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Trust Fund is held to
continue to be property of the Depositor then (a) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement under applicable
law; (b) the transfer of the Trust Fund provided for herein shall be deemed to be a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee on behalf
of Certificateholders of a first priority security interest in, and the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest
in, all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising,
the property identified in clauses (i) through (xiv) of the definition of “Trust Fund” and all proceeds thereof; (c)
the possession by the Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf) of Mortgage Notes and such other items of property as constitute
instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party”
for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to Section 9-313 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; and (d) notifications
to Persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons holding such property, shall be
deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable)
of the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. The Depositor shall, and upon the request
and direction of the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement (and at the expense of the
Trust Fund (and, in the case of any Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the expense allocation provision
of the related Intercreditor Agreement)), take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that such security interest is a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.
It is the intent of the parties that such a security interest would be effective whether any of the Certificates are sold, pledged
or assigned.


 


Section
12.10     No Intended Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as specified in Section 12.12 of
this Agreement, no Person other than a party to this Agreement, any Mortgage Loan Seller, any Initial Purchaser, any Underwriter
or any Certificateholder shall have any rights


 






    -519-

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class A-1
Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E,
Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class

    A-1-2


     


    

 


Class
V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders
of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”).
This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent
not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms
are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class A-1 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the
eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February
2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class A-1 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of


 



    A-1-3


     


    

 


the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and
having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at
least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in
the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and
surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the
Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from


 



    A-1-4


     


    

 


time
to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled
or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s
interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments of Leases, Rents

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class A-2 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the
eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February
2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class A-2 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to
this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar
month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to
consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent
to the Persons in whose names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the
close of business on the last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution
Date occurs. 


 



    A-2-3 


     


    

 


Such
distributions shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the
related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity
located in the United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with
wire instructions in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in
the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail
to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like
manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent
(which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of
such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of


 



    A-2-4 


     


    

 


the
Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received
in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage
Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all
assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of
Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale
Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit
therein, assets credited thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity
agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage
Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document
delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller
regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv)
the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts,
Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 






    A-2-5

or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.

Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the
effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of
the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any

	 	 	satisfied

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the
                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day
                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent

                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date

	 	 	(less
                                         any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement
                                         Rate, and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor

Agreement with respect to the Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain

This certifies that [              ]
is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect
to the Class A-3 Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured
by first liens on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The
Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined
below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Depositor, Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), Midland Loan
Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate
administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent, and Park Bridge
Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset representations

Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB,
Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM,


 






    A-3-2


     


    

 


Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the
“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable,
if any, allocable to the Class A-3 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of
this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class A-3 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of


 






    A-3-3


     


    

 


the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited
in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically
excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage Loans as from time to time are subject
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage

on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO

interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This Certificate does
not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable or exchangeable

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly authenticate in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate denomination
as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior to due presentation
of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor,
the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and
any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited Investors as provided

the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s
review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.

agents) and each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of
the Certificateholders or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders; provided, that no such amendment may:


 


		(i)	reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans
or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates
representing all of the Percentage Interests of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed to
any Companion Loan Noteholders without the consent of such Companion Loan Noteholders;



 


		(ii)	reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required

without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;

    A-3-8

(i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC
or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or
local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after the Early Termination Notice

than 1.0% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date) by purchasing on such date all,
but not less than all, of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust Fund, and the Trust’s interest in all property acquired
in respect of any Mortgage Loan, at a purchase price, payable in cash, equal to the sum of, without duplication:

day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day of the
month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent appraiser acceptable to the Master Servicer
as of a date not more than 30 days prior to the last day of the month preceding such Distribution Date;



 


		(C)	all unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage
Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage Rate to the last day of the month preceding
such Anticipated Termination Date 



 






    A-3-9


     


    

 





		 	 (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and


 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate,
and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor Fees, Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fees,

In addition, the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement provides that following the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the Class X-B Notional Amount,

Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall
have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all
of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a)
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later
than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All costs and expenses
incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of
the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled
to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the
Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send certain notices
to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision for payment)
to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee, the
Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer, as the case may be, required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be
so paid on the Distribution Date following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and all other property

Fund, or (b) the liquidation and disposition pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the last asset held by the
Trust Fund; provided that in no event shall the trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration

Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined
below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.

Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), Midland Loan
Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate
administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent, and Park Bridge

    A-4-2


     


    

 


“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable,
if any, allocable to the Class A-SB Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of
this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class A-SB Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs.


 






    A-4-3


     


    

 


Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited
in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically
excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage Loans as from time to time are subject
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments
on or collections in respect of


 






    A-4-4

(vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve
Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the
Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO
Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security
interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.

not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.

designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate denomination
as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior to due presentation

the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and
any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,

review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.

or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or
local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

    A-4-9


     


    

 





		 	 (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and


 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed

have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later
than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.

the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled
to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the

secured by first liens on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer.
The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined
below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Depositor, Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), Midland Loan
Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate

Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the


 






    A-5-2


     


    

 


“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable,
if any, allocable to the Class A-4 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of
this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class A-4 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs.


 






    A-5-3


     


    

 


Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited
in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically
excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage Loans as from time to time are subject
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments
on or collections in respect of


 






    A-5-4

Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the
Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO
Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security
interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This Certificate does
not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.

designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate denomination

V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and
any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,

Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited Investors as provided

review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.

or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or
local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

		(C)	all unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage

such Anticipated Termination Date 



 






    A-5-9


     


    

 





		 	(less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and


 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed

have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all
of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a)
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later
than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All costs and expenses
incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of
the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled
to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the
Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send certain notices

to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Certificate
Administrator and the Master Servicer, as the case may be, required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be so paid on

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class A-5
Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E,
Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class
V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM,


 



    A-6-2 


     


    

 


Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class
V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms
are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class A-5 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the
eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February
2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class A-5 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of


 



    A-6-3 


     


    

 


the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage 


 



    A-6-4 


     


    

 


Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 






    A-6-5 


     


    

 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the

the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform

Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the
effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of

                                         Loans or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate,
                                         without the consent of the Holders of Certificates representing all of the Percentage
                                         Interests of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed

		(ii)	reduce

                                         to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion
                                         Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates
                                         of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;

		(iv)	change
                                         in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations

                                         without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or



 


		(v)	amend
                                         the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt
                                         of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable
                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided
                                         that such rating agency confirmation may be considered

	 	 	satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).



 


Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after
the Early Termination Notice Date (defined as any date as of which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
remaining in the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date)
by purchasing on such date all, but not less than all, of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust Fund, and the Trust’s
interest in all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan, at a purchase price, payable in cash, equal to the sum of,
without duplication:


 


		(A)	100%

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class A-M
Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E,
Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class
V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class
V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the


 



    A-7-2 


     


    

 


“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms
are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class A-M Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the
eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February
2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class A-M Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs.


 



    A-7-3 


     


    

 


Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of


 



    A-7-4 


     


    

 


the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 






    A-7-5 


     


    

 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.

Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the
effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of

Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.


 


The
Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interest in the Controlling Class and, if no such Certificateholder
exercises such option, the Special Servicer, and if the Special Servicer does not exercise such option, the Master Servicer may
effect an early termination of the Trust Fund, upon not less than 30 days’ prior Notice of Termination given to the Trustee,
the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after
the Early Termination Notice Date (defined as any date as of which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
remaining in the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date)
by purchasing on such date all, but not less than all, of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust Fund, and the Trust’s

                                         last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances
                                         previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the
                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day
                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent
                                         appraiser acceptable to the Master Servicer as of a date not more than 30 days prior

                                         Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage
                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date

                                         any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement
                                         Rate, and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor

In
addition, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that following the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the
Class X-B Notional Amount, the Class X-D Notional Amount and the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class A-1, Class A-2,
Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole
Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class
R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of
Section 9.01(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement no later than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All
costs and expenses incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with
the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator

respective obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with
respect to the Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send
certain notices to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision
for payment) to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the
Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer, as the case may be, required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
to be so paid on the Distribution Date following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and all other

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class B
Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E,
Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class
V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM,


 



    A-8-2 


     


    

 


Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class
V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms
are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class B Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh
day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class B Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of 


 



    A-8-3 


     


    

 


the calendar
month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such
distributions shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the
related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity
located in the United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with
wire instructions in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in
the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail
to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like
manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent
(which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of
such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage 


 



    A-8-4 


     


    

 


Files
relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the
Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property;
(v) any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities
or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection
Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest
Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited
thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating
to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 






    A-8-5 


     


    

 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such amendment; (iv) to
modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust
REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate

		(ii)	reduce
                                         the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required
                                         to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion
                                         Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates
                                         of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;

		(v)	amend
                                         the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt
                                         of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable
                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered

	 	 	satisfied
                                         in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with
                                         respect to the Certificates).



 


Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances
                                         previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the
                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day

                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date

	 	 	(less
                                         any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class C
Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E,
Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class
V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class
V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the


 



    A-9-2 


     


    

 


“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms
are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class C Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh
day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class C Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs.


 



    A-9-3 


     


    

 


Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted

V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms
are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class D Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh
day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class D Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 






    A-10-5 


     


    

 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be


 






    A-10-6 


     


    

 


invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional

counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental

any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform

Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel

or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating

Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with
regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered a confirmation that such
action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating

may:


 


		(i)	reduce
                                         in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage
                                         Loans or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate,
                                         without the consent of the Holders of Certificates representing all of the Percentage
                                         Interests of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed
                                         to any Companion Loan Noteholders without the consent of such Companion Loan Noteholders;



 


		(ii)	reduce
                                         the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required
                                         to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion
                                         Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates
                                         of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;

    A-10-10 


     


    




 


		(iv)	change
                                         in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations
                                         of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise
                                         or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder,
                                         without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or



 


		(v)	amend
                                         the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt
                                         of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable
                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).



 


Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after

                                         last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances
                                         previously made on account of principal);

                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day
                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent
                                         appraiser acceptable to the Master Servicer as of a date not more than 30 days prior
                                         to the last day of the month preceding such Distribution Date;

V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms
are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this
Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class E Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day
of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class E Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 






    A-11-6 


     


    

 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be


 






    A-11-7 


     


    

 


invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered.


 






    A-11-8 


     


    

 


Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such amendment; (iv) to
modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust
REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate
is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor
Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel

“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable,
if any, allocable to the Class F-RR Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018.


 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class F-RR Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 






    A-12-6


     


    

 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be


 






    A-12-7


     


    

 


invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited

set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically

to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments
on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO

interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This Certificate does
not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As provided in the Pooling

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly authenticate in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate denomination
as the Certificate being surrendered.

the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and
any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.

Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the
Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without the consent of any
of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct any manifest error;

any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of
the Certificateholders or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders; provided, that no such amendment may:

or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or
local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

as of a date not more than 30 days prior to the last day of the month preceding such Distribution Date;



 


		(C)	all unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage
Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage Rate to the last day of the month preceding
such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate,
and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor Fees, Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fees,
the CREFC® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fees and Trust Fund expenses.

and Servicing Agreement provides that following the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the Class X-B Notional Amount,
the Class X-D Notional Amount and the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB,
Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall
have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later
than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All costs and expenses
incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of
the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled
to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the
Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send certain notices
to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision for payment)
to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on


 






    A-12-13


     


    

 


behalf of the Trustee, the Certificate
Administrator and the Master Servicer, as the case may be, required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be so paid on

Trust Fund in accordance with Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (ii) the exchange by the Sole Certificateholder
of its Certificates for the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 9.01(g) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and (iii) the

“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable,
if any, allocable to the Class G-RR Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018.


 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class G-RR Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 






    A-13-6


     


    

 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be


 






    A-13-7


     


    

 


invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited

set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically
excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage Loans as from time to time are subject
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments
on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO
Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security

(vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve
Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the
Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO
Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security
interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This Certificate does
not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable or exchangeable

by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly authenticate in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate denomination

and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited Investors as provided
in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor,

review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.

local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,

but not less than all, of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust Fund, and the Trust’s interest in all property acquired

		(C)	all unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage
Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage Rate to the last day of the month preceding
such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate,
and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor Fees, Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fees,
the CREFC® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fees and Trust Fund expenses.



 


In addition, the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement provides that following the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the Class X-B Notional Amount,
the Class X-D Notional Amount and the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB,
Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall
have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all
of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a)
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later
than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All costs and expenses
incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of
the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled
to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the
Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send certain notices
to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision for payment)
to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on


 






    A-13-13


     


    

 


behalf of the Trustee, the Certificate

This certifies that [              ]
is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect
to the Class X-A Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans
secured by first liens on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer.
The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined
below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Depositor, Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), Midland Loan
Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate
administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent, and Park Bridge
Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset representations
reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of the Class A-1, Class
A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR,
Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB,
Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM,


 






    A-14-2


     


    

 


Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the
“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if
any, allocable to the Class X-A Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month,
or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate
may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class X-A Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Notional Balance hereof.


 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of


 






    A-14-3


     


    

 


the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited
in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically
excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage Loans as from time to time are subject
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage


 






    A-14-4


     


    

 


Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments
on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO

(vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve
Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the
Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO
Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security
interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This Certificate does
not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable or exchangeable
only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment and transfer (executed
by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly authenticate in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate denomination
as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior to due presentation
of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor,
the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and
any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 






    A-14-5


     


    

 


No fee or service charge
shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange referred
to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited Investors as provided
in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor,
the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s
review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.


 


The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the
Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without the consent of any
of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct any manifest error;

and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable, the Serviced
Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions
(i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC
or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or
local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.


 


The Certificateholder
owning a majority of the Percentage Interest in the Controlling Class and, if no such Certificateholder exercises such option,
the Special Servicer, and if the Special Servicer does not exercise such option, the Master Servicer may effect an early termination
of the Trust Fund, upon not less than 30 days’ prior Notice of Termination given to the Trustee, the Special Servicer and
the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after the Early Termination Notice
Date (defined as any date as of which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans remaining in the Trust is less
than 1.0% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date) by purchasing on such date all,
but not less than all, of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust Fund, and the Trust’s interest in all property acquired
in respect of any Mortgage Loan, at a purchase price, payable in cash, equal to the sum of, without duplication:


 


		(A)	100% of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan included in the Trust as of the last
day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day of the
month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent appraiser acceptable to the Master Servicer
as of a date not more than 30 days prior to the last day of the month preceding such Distribution Date;



 


		(C)	all unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage
Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage Rate to the last day of the month preceding
such Anticipated Termination Date 



 






    A-14-9


     


    

 





			 (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and


 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate,
and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor Fees, Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fees,
the CREFC® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fees and Trust Fund expenses.



 


In addition, the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement provides that following the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the Class X-B Notional Amount,
the Class X-D Notional Amount and the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB,
Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall
have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all
of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a)
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later
than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All costs and expenses
incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of
the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled
to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating
Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the
Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send certain notices
to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision for payment)
to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Certificate
Administrator and the Master Servicer, as the case may be, required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be so paid on
the Distribution Date following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and all other property held by the
Trust Fund in accordance with Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (ii) the exchange by the Sole Certificateholder

The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Depositor, Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), Midland Loan
Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate
administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent, and Park Bridge
Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset representations
reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of the Class A-1, Class
A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR,
Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB,
Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the
“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if
any, allocable to the Class X-B Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month,
or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate
may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 






    A-15-4


     


    

 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class X-B Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Notional Balance hereof.


 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and


 






    A-15-5


     


    

 


Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited
in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically
excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage Loans as from time to time are subject
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments
on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO
Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security
agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loans;
(vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve
Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the
Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO
Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security
interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This Certificate does
not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable or exchangeable
only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment and transfer (executed
by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited Investors as provided
in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor,
the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s
review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.


 


The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the
Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without the consent of any
of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct any manifest error;

or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC
or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate is outstanding,
or to avoid or

action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such
tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or Companion
Loan Noteholder; (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement restricting

be subject to a federal tax caused by a Transfer to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization or a Non-U.S. Tax Person; (vi)
to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or

to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (vii) to amend or supplement any
provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings assigned to each
Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies; provided

The Pooling and Servicing

the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee with the prior written
consent of the Holders of Certificates representing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates
affected thereby (without regard to Certificates held by the Depositor, any of the Depositor’s Affiliates and/or agents)
and each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner
or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of the Certificateholders
or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders; provided, that no such amendment may:


 


		(i)	reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans
or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates
representing all of the Percentage Interests of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed to
any Companion Loan Noteholders without the consent of such Companion Loan Noteholders;



 


		(ii)	reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required
to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Loan Noteholder, in any such case
without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;

		(v)	amend the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of
Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not
result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan,
if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency
Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).



 


Further, the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer
and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable, the Serviced

(i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC
or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or
local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent the imposition
of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

		(C)	all unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage
Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage Rate to the last day of the month preceding
such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed
                                         Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, and unpaid Servicing Compensation,

Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall
have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later
than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All costs and expenses
incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of
the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled
to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.


 


The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating

The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Depositor, Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), Midland Loan
Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate
administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent, and Park Bridge
Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset representations
reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of the Class A-1, Class
A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR,
Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB,
Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the
“Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This Certificate represents
a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively,
in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance
hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding
sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured
by income.


 


The Certificate Administrator
makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant to the terms
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate Administrator,
will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination Date
(each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the
Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if
any, allocable to the Class X-D Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month,
or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate
may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 






    A-16-4


     


    

 


During each Interest
Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class X-D Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Notional Balance hereof.


 


Interest accrued on this
Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if
any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest
Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All distributions (other
than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose names the Certificates
are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions shall be made on each
Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, (i) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having
appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions in writing at least
five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable
to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth therefor in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender
of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate
Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any funds not distributed
on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as to which notice of the
Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation
within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting
such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within two years after
the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall distribute to
the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter
hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination
of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to
any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and


 






    A-16-5


     


    

 


Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator as a result
of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This Certificate is limited
in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s interest therein and specifically
excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage Loans as from time to time are subject
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments
on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii) the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO
Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security
agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loans;
(vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve
Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the
Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO
Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security
interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance
policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties
of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR
Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box
Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related
Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This Certificate does
not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for
the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and
immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable or exchangeable
only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment and transfer (executed
by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling and Servicing

    A-16-6


     


    

 


the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly authenticate in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate denomination

V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


Prior to due presentation
of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor,
the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and
any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No fee or service charge
shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange referred
to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited Investors as provided
in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor,
the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s
review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate
Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable
in connection with any such transfer.


 


The Pooling and Servicing

or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of the Certificateholders
or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders; provided, that no such amendment may:


 


		(i)	reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans
or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates
representing all of the Percentage Interests of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed to

or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material state or
local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an Opinion of

of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable,
any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,

		(C)	all unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage
Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage Rate to the last day of the month preceding
such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate,

Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in
accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other
taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable,
if any, allocable to the Class X-E Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class X-E Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Notional Balance hereof.


 



     A-17-6


     


    

 





Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be 


 






     A-17-7


     


    

 


invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.

Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve

and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.

Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.

provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment

and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental

is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor
Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel

or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating
Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of

such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade,
withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided

and is not continuing, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed securities industry standard for such
provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the
status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the status of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the
Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with
regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered a confirmation that such
action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating
agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied
with respect to the Certificates); (ix) to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance
with Rule 17g-5 of


 






     A-17-10

to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or modifying in any manner
the rights of the Certificateholders or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders; provided, that no such amendment may:


 


		(i)	reduce
                                         in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage
                                         Loans or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate,

                                         or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder,
                                         without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).

provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any
                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement

This

The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial
and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and
the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this
Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E,
Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1, Class
V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E, Class
V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial ownership interest in a portion of the Excess Interest collected on the ARD Loans and amounts
held from time to time in the Excess Interest Distribution Account. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees
to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for
purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable,
if any, allocable to the Class S Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month,
or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate
may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable


 






    A-18-4


     


    

 


state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class S Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.

                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

THIS CERTIFICATE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY, AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 5.02(l) OF THE POOLING AND SERVICING
AGREEMENT, AND SHALL BE REQUIRED TO FURNISH AN AFFIDAVIT TO THE TRANSFEROR AND THE CERTIFICATE ADMINISTRATOR TO THE EFFECT THAT,
AMONG OTHER THINGS, (A) IT IS NOT A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION, AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN SECTION 860E(e)(5) OF THE CODE, OR AN

FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES. IN ORDER TO SATISFY A REGULATORY SAFE HARBOR UNDER WHICH SUCH TRANSFERS WILL NOT BE DISREGARDED,
THE TRANSFEROR MAY BE REQUIRED, AMONG OTHER THINGS, TO SATISFY ITSELF AS TO THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class R Certificates issued by the Trust Fund. The Class R
Certificateholder is not entitled to interest or principal distributions. The Class R Certificateholder will be entitled
to receive the proceeds of the remaining assets of the Upper-Tier REMIC, if any, on the Final Scheduled Distribution Date for
the Certificates, after distributions in respect of any accrued but unpaid interest on the Certificates and after distributions
in reduction of principal balance have reduced the principal balances of the Certificates to zero. It is not anticipated that
there will be any assets remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC or Trust Fund on the Final Scheduled Distribution Date following the
distributions on the Regular Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage
Loans secured by first liens on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master
Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
(as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.

Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset

and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This
Class R Certificate represents the sole “residual interest” in two “real estate mortgage investment conduits”,
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(2) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income. The Holder of the largest Percentage Interest in the Class R Certificates
shall be the “tax matters person” pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d) and “partnership representative”
(within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code, to the extent such provision is applicable to the Trust REMICs) for each Trust
REMIC, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby irrevocably designated and shall serve as attorney-in-fact and agent for any
such Person that is the “tax matters person” and “partnership representative”.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust


 






    A-19-5


     


    

 


and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests,


 






    A-19-6


     


    

 


rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.

or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment

and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article

the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing

and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such amendment; (iv) to
modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust
REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate
is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor
Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the
effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of
the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder; (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions any provision of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement restricting transfer of the Class R Certificates; provided the Depositor has determined that

(other than the Transferor) to be subject to a federal tax caused by a Transfer to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization
or a Non-U.S. Tax Person; (vi) to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan not consenting thereto as
evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating
Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement and confirmation of the applicable
rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of
any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied
in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (vii) to amend
or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating
Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion
Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade,
withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided

to the extent required to comply with any such amendment or to modify or eliminate the risk retention requirements in the event
of such repeal, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel.

                                         Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates
                                         of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;

                                         or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder,

Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances
                                         previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the
                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day
                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent

                                         Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage
                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any
                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement
                                         Rate, and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor

Agreement no later than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with
respect to the Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send
certain notices to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision
for payment) to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class V2
Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the


 






    A-20-4


     


    

 


Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,

Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents (i) a beneficial interest in multiple “regular interests” in a “real estate mortgage
investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended, and (ii) a beneficial interest in the Excess Interest and proceeds thereof in the Excess Interest Distribution
Account. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment
of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and
franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on
the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then
distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V2 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the


 






    A-20-5


     


    

 


eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February
2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V2 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be

invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.

Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)

Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,

as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The

Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with
regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered a confirmation that such
action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-A1
Certificates


 






    A-21-5


     


    

 


for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day
of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-A1 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


Interest
accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this
Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The “Interest Accrual Period” means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the calendar month immediately preceding
the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Each Interest Accrual Period is assumed to consist of 30 days.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate


 






    A-21-6


     


    

 


Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.

As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private

respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such amendment; (iv) to
modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust
REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate
is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor
Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the
effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of
the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder; (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions any provision of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement restricting transfer of the Class R Certificates; provided the Depositor has determined that

(other than the Transferor) to be subject to a federal tax caused by a Transfer to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization
or a Non-U.S. Tax Person; (vi) to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material

rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of
any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied
in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (vii) to amend
or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating
Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion
Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade,
withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided
that such Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied in the


 






    A-21-9


     


    

 


same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered
satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (viii) to modify the provisions of Section 3.06 and Section 3.17 of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement
Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as a Control Termination Event has not occurred
and is not continuing, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed securities industry standard for such
provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the
status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the status of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the
Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with
regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered a confirmation that such
action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating
agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied
with respect to the Certificates); (ix) to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance
with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects
the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then
rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates; and provided, further,
that the Certificate Administrator shall give notice of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the
17g-5 Information Provider’s Website and the Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s
Website; (x) to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as would be necessary

or any other regulation applicable to the risk retention requirements for this securitization transaction are amended or repealed,
to the extent required to comply with any such amendment or to modify or eliminate the risk retention requirements in the event
of such repeal, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel.

                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided

Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement

than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund
as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to
all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with
respect to the Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send
certain notices to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision
for payment) to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the
Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer, as the case may be, required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-A2
Certificates


 






    A-22-5


     


    

 


for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day
of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-A2 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






    A-22-6


     


    

 


failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-A3
Certificates


 






    A-23-5


     


    

 


for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day
of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-A3Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






    A-23-6


     


    

 


failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event

or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating

                                         Loans or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate,

	 	 	requirement
                                         to obtain consent of any Companion Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent
                                         of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan
                                         Noteholder, as applicable;



 


		(iii)	adversely

                                         of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding;



 


		(iv)	change
                                         in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations

                                         or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder,
                                         without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or



 


		(v)	amend
                                         the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt

                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).

provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         previously made on account of principal);

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the
Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day
after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such
Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the
aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-ASB


 






    A-24-5


     


    

 


Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day
of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-ASB Certificates will be calculated based on a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






    A-24-6


     


    

 


failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

    A-24-7


     


    

 


in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely

affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such amendment; (iv) to
modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust
REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate
is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor
Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the
effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of
the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder; (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions any provision of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement restricting transfer of the Class R Certificates; provided the Depositor has determined that
such change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Trust Fund, any Trust REMIC or any of the Certificateholders
(other than the Transferor) to be subject to a federal tax caused by a Transfer to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization
or a Non-U.S. Tax Person; (vi) to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan not consenting thereto as
evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating
Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement and confirmation of the applicable
rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of
any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied
in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (vii) to amend
or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating
Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion
Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade,

                                         or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder,

                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).



 


Further,

Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent

                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-A4
Certificates


 






    A-25-5


     


    

 


for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day
of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-A4 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






    A-25-6


     


    

 


failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.

Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)

of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given

Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,

Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.

as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.

                                         Noteholder, as applicable;

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-A5
Certificates


 






    A-26-5


     


    

 


for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day
of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders
of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-A5 Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






    A-26-6


     


    

 


failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

    A-26-7


     


    

 


in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect

and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection

or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating
Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to
all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.

costs and expenses incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with
the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Certificates.
The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial
and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and
the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this
Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-AM
Certificates


 






    A-27-5 


     


    

 


for
such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is
defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day,
then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and
Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-AM Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






    A-27-6 


     


    

 


failure
to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts
transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments and all income and gain realized from investment
of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage

requirement
to obtain consent of any Companion Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of
such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;

                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).

state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

Certificates.
The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial
and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and
the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this
Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-B
Certificates


 






     A-28-5


     


    

 





for
such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is
defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day,
then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and
Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-B Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






     A-28-6


     


    

 


failure
to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts
transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments and all income and gain realized from investment
of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

     A-28-7


     


    

 


in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate
denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance
with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely

or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust;
provided that the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the
party requesting such amendment) to the effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification
or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder; (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions

is a Disqualified Organization or a Non-U.S. Tax Person; (vi) to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or

and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation
may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the
Certificates); (vii) to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain
the then-current ratings assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation
from each of the Rating Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or any holder of
a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the
expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action
will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion
Loan, if any (provided that such Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating
Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (viii) to modify the provisions of Section
3.06 and Section 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances
and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as a Control
Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed
securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such


 






     A-28-9


     


    

 


modification
does not adversely affect the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the status of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under
the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating
Agency Confirmation and, with regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered
a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may
be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (ix) to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect
in any material respects the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if
any Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates; and provided,
further, that the Certificate Administrator shall give notice of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for
posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website and the Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate

Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the
Trustee with the prior written consent of the Holders of Certificates representing not less than a majority of the Percentage
Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby (without regard to Certificates held by the Depositor, any of the Depositor’s
Affiliates and/or agents) and each Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions
to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or modifying in any manner
the rights of the Certificateholders or the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders; provided, that no such amendment may:


 


		(i)	reduce
                                         in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage
                                         Loans or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate,
                                         without the consent of the Holders of Certificates representing all of the Percentage
                                         Interests of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed
                                         to any Companion Loan Noteholders without the consent of such Companion Loan Noteholders;



 


		(ii)	reduce
                                         the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required
                                         to consent to any such amendment or remove the 



 



     A-28-10


     


    

 


requirement
to obtain consent of any Companion Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of
such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;


 





		(iii)	adversely
                                         affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders
                                         of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding;



 


		(iv)	change
                                         in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations
                                         of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise
                                         or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder,
                                         without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or



 


		(v)	amend
                                         the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt
                                         of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable
                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).



 


Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after

                                         last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances
                                         previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the
                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day
                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent

Certificates.
The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial
and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and
the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this
Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-C
Certificates


 






     A-29-5


     


    

 





for
such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is
defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day,
then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and
Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-C Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






     A-29-6


     


    

 


failure
to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts
transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments and all income and gain realized from investment
of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate


 






     A-29-7


     


    

 


in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate
denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance
with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely


 






     A-29-8


     


    

 


affect
in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense
of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to
such amendment; (iv) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the
qualification of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code
at all times that any Certificate is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund
or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust;
provided that the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the
party requesting such amendment) to the effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification
or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder; (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions
any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement restricting transfer of the Class R Certificates; provided the
Depositor has determined that such change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Trust Fund, any Trust REMIC

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-D
Certificates






 






    A-30-5


     


    

 


for
such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is
defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day,
then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Prepayment Premiums and
Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-D Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s


 






    A-30-6


     


    

 


failure
to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts
transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments and all income and gain realized from investment
of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.

duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment

and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,

for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely

or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust;
provided that the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the
party requesting such amendment) to the effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification
or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or Companion Loan Noteholder; (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions

is a Disqualified Organization or a Non-U.S. Tax Person; (vi) to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or

may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the
Certificates); (vii) to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain
the then-current ratings assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation
from each of the Rating Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or any holder of
a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the
expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action
will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion
Loan, if any (provided that such Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating
Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (viii) to modify the provisions of Section
3.06 and Section 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances

Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed
securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such

modification
does not adversely affect the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the status of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under
the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating
Agency Confirmation and, with regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered

be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (ix) to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect
in any material respects the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if

                                         Loans or Serviced Whole Loan which are required to be distributed on any Certificate,

                                         or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder,
                                         without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or



 


		(v)	amend
                                         the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt

                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).

provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

exercises such option, the Special Servicer, and if the Special Servicer does not exercise such option, the Master Servicer may
effect an early termination of the Trust Fund, upon not less than 30 days’ prior Notice of Termination given to the Trustee,
the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after
the Early Termination Notice Date (defined as any date as of which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
remaining in the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date)
by purchasing on such date all, but not less than all, of the Mortgage Loans then

                                         previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the
                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day
                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent

                                         Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage
                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any
                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of
the Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business
Day after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to
such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of
the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-E
Certificates


 






     A-31-6


     


    

 


for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-E Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and 


 






     A-31-7


     


    

 



Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted Investments
and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in


 






     A-31-8


     


    

 


authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection
Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event
be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an

Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the

rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of
any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied
in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (vii) to amend
or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating
Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion
Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade,
withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided

with respect to the Certificates); (ix) to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance
with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects
the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

                                         previously made on account of principal);

                                         Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage
                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any
                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement

of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates
is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other
than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund
as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to
all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All
costs and expenses incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with
the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator
shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c)
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,”
as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each
Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the
Certificate Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day
after each Determination Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such
Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the
aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-F
Certificates 


 



     A-32-6


     


    




 


for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of
each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day, commencing in February 2018.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-F Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and


 






     A-32-7


     


    

 


Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.

Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly

     A-32-8


     


    

 


authorized denominations

Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect

and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling

Trust that would be a claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and
the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the
effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of

in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates); (vii) to amend
or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings
assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating
Agencies; provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion
Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting
such amendment or as evidenced by confirmation of the applicable Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade,
withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided

and is not continuing, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed securities industry standard for such
provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the

Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with
regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered a confirmation that such

agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied
with respect to the Certificates); (ix) to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance
with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects
the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then

		(i)	reduce
                                         in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage

                                         without the consent of the Holders of Certificates representing all of the Percentage
                                         Interests of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed
                                         to any Companion Loan Noteholders without the consent of such Companion Loan Noteholders;



 


		(ii)	reduce
                                         the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required

                                         Loan Noteholder, in any 



 



     A-32-11


     


    

 


such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates
                                         of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;


 





		(iii)	adversely

		(iv)	change
                                         in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations

                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).

as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

This
certifies that [              ] is the registered
owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class V1-G
Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens
on commercial and multifamily properties and held in trust by the Trustee and serviced by the Master Servicer. The Trust Fund
was created, and the Mortgage Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The
Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”),
Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), custodian and paying agent,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and asset
representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”) evidences the issuance of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-E, Class S, Class R, Class V2, Class V1-A1,
Class V1-A2, Class V1-A3, Class V1-ASB, Class V1-A4, Class V1-A5, Class V1-AM, Class V1-B, Class V1-C, Class V1-D, Class V1-E,
Class V1-F and Class V1-G Certificates (the “Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates issued under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders”). This Certificate is issued
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


This
Certificate represents (i) a beneficial interest in a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment
conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, and (ii) a beneficial interest in the Excess Interest and proceeds thereof in the Excess Interest Distribution Account.
Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of,
this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.


 


The
Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or
sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate
Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this
Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to
the extent of such inconsistency.


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator, or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Certificate
Administrator, will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the fourth Business Day after each


 






     A-33-6


     


    

 


Determination
Date (each such date, a “Distribution Date”) an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share
(based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and
interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class V1-G Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more
fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. “Determination Date” is defined in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement as the eleventh day of each month, or if such eleventh day is not a Business Day, then the next Business
Day, commencing in February 2018.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class V1-G Certificates will be calculated based on a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months on the outstanding Certificate Balance hereof.


 


All
distributions (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) will be made by the Paying Agent to the Persons in whose
names the Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the close of business on the
last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Such distributions
shall be made on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity located in the
United States and having appropriate facilities therefor if such Holder shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire instructions
in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing
order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or (ii) otherwise, by check mailed by first-class mail to the address set forth
therefor in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment
and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in the notice to Holders of such final distribution.


 


Any
funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Certificateholders. If any Certificates as
to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Certificates shall have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust
and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state escheatment laws, if within
two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof, and the Certificate Administrator
shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the
termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall


 






     A-33-7


     


    

 


accrue or
be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Certificate Administrator
as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any such amounts transferred to the Certificate Administrator may be invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 


This
Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes (in each case, to the extent of the Trust Fund’s
interest therein and specifically excluding any interest of any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder therein): (i) such Mortgage
Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto;
(ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date; (iii)
the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property; (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property; (v) any Assignments
of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements related to the Mortgage Loans; (vi) any indemnities or guaranties given
as additional security for any Mortgage Loans; (vii) a security interest in all assets deposited in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash
Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the Serviced Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, any Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the Interest Reserve
Account, and the Trust’s interest in any REO Account, including any amounts on deposit therein, assets credited thereto
and any reinvestment income, as applicable; (x) a security interest in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the
Mortgaged Properties; (xi) a security interest in all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties; (xii) the rights and remedies under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements relating to document delivery requirements
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the related Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage
Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests; (xiv) the Class VRR Upper-Tier Regular Interests; and (xv) the proceeds of the
foregoing (other than any interest earned on deposits in the Lock-Box Accounts, Cash Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts and
any Reserve Accounts, to the extent such interest belongs to the related Borrower). As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
withdrawals may be made from certain of the above accounts for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders.


 


This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator.


 


As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this Certificate is transferable
or exchangeable only upon surrender of this Certificate to the Certificate Registrar at its offices together with an assignment
and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney), subject to the requirements in Article V of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of


 






     A-33-8


     


    

 


this Certificate, subject to the requirements in Article
V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall duly
authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate denomination as the Certificate being surrendered. Such Certificates shall be delivered by the Certificate
Registrar in accordance with Article V of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In
no event shall Certificates representing a Percentage Interest in any Class of Class V1 Certificates be transferred to any Person
(and the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer) unless Certificates representing the exact same Percentage
Interest in each and every other outstanding Class of Class V1 Certificates are simultaneously transferred to the same Person.
Any Holder of Class V1 Certificates shall at all times hold the same Percentage Interest in each and every outstanding Class thereof.


 


Prior
to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.


 


No
fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer
or exchange referred to in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement other than for transfers to Institutional Accredited
Investors as provided in Section 5.02(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional
Accredited Investor, the transferor shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s
counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar
as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The
Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders or any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct
any manifest error; (ii) to cause the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement to conform
or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus or Private Placement Memorandum with respect
to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement; (iii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection

                                         the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt
                                         of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable
                                         rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
                                         of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner
                                         as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates).



 


Further,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations
Reviewer and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable,
the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders, may amend the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its
provisions (i) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC
as a REMIC or the qualification of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust, or to prevent the imposition of any additional material
state or local taxes, at all times that any Certificates are outstanding; provided that such action, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the expense of the Trust Fund), is necessary or helpful to maintain such qualification or to prevent
the imposition of any such taxes, and would not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder
or if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Noteholder or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations.

Certificateholder owning a majority of the Percentage Interest in the Controlling Class and, if no such Certificateholder
exercises such option, the Special Servicer, and if the Special Servicer does not exercise such option, the Master Servicer may
effect an early termination of the Trust Fund, upon not less than 30 days’ prior Notice of Termination given to the Trustee,
the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer any time specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, which shall be on or after

without duplication:


 


		(A)	100%
                                         of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan included in the Trust as of the
                                         last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any P&I Advances
                                         previously made on account of principal);



 


		(B)	the
                                         fair market value of all other property included in the Trust Fund as of the last day
                                         of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date, as determined by an Independent
                                         appraiser acceptable to the Master Servicer as of a date not more than 30 days prior
                                         to the last day of the month preceding such Distribution Date;



 


		(C)	all
                                         unpaid interest accrued on the unpaid balance of each Mortgage Loan (including any Mortgage
                                         Loan as to which title to the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired) at the Mortgage
                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any
                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and



 


		(D)	the
                                         aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, with interest thereon at the Reimbursement
                                         Rate, and unpaid Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Compensation, Operating Advisor
                                         Fees, Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fees, the CREFC® Intellectual
                                         Property Royalty License Fees and Trust Fund expenses.



 


In
addition, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that following the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the
Class X-B Notional Amount, the Class X-D Notional Amount and the aggregate Certificate Balance
of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-SB, Class A-4, Class A-5, Class A-M, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates
is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other
than the Class S or Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund
as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to
all the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange.


 


All
costs and expenses incurred by any and all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with
the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and the other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights thereunder. The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator
shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any


 






     A-33-13


     


    

  


determination made by an Independent appraiser pursuant to Section 9.01(c)
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator,
the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with
respect to the Certificates (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to make certain payments and to send
certain notices to Certificateholders as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon payment (or provision
for payment) to the Certificateholders and the Serviced Companion Loan Noteholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the
Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer, as the case may be, required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
to be so paid on the Distribution Date following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and all other

☐         The
present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed
the sum of:


 


(i)          the
present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;


 


(ii)         the
present value of the expected future distributions on such Certificate; and


 


(iii)        the
present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related REMIC generates losses.


 


For
purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Code Section
11(b) (but the tax rate in Code Section 55(b)(1)(B) may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Code Section 11(b) if
the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Code Section 55 in the preceding two years and will compute
its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using
a discount rate equal to the short term Federal rate prescribed by Code Section 1274(d) for the month of the transfer and the
compounding period used by the Purchaser.


 


☐         The
transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,


 









    C-1-2 


     


    

 



(i)          the
Purchaser is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which
income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;


 


(ii)         at
the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser
had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Purchaser within the meaning
of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;


 


(iii)        the
Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and
(iii) and Section 1.860E-1(c)(5) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations; and


 


(iv)        the
Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including,
but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax
rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.


 


☐           None
of the above.

Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


This letter is delivered
pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing
Agreement”), entered into between Deutsche Mortgage & Asset Receiving Corporation, as depositor, Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association, as master servicer, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as special servicer,
Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor and asset representations reviewer, Wilmington Trust, National Association,
as trustee, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate administrator, paying agent and custodian, on behalf of
the holders of Benchmark 2018-B1 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates (the “Certificates”)
with respect to the transfer by [__________] (the “Seller”) to the undersigned (the “Purchaser”)
of [$_____ aggregate Certificate Balance][_____% Percentage Interest] of Class [_____] Certificates, in certificated fully registered
form (such registered interest, the “Certificate”). Terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


In connection with
such transfer, the undersigned hereby represents and warrants to you as follows:


 


[For Institutional
Accredited Investors only] 1. The Purchaser is an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501
(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
or an entity in which all of the equity owners are such accredited investors (an “Institutional Accredited Investor”),
and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of


 






    D-1-1 


     


    

 


evaluating the merits and risks of
the investment in the Certificate, and the Purchaser and any accounts for which the Purchaser is acting are each able to bear the
economic risk of the investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Certificate for its own account or for one or more accounts (each
of which is an Institutional Accredited Investor) as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion. The Purchaser
hereby undertakes to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with this transfer.


 


[For Qualified
Institutional Buyers only] 1. The Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule
144A”) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Purchaser
is aware that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and the Purchaser has had the opportunity to obtain the information
required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A.


 


		2.	The Purchaser’s intention is to acquire the Certificate (a) for investment for the Purchaser’s
own account or (b) for reoffer, resale, pledge or other transfer to (i) “qualified institutional buyers” within the
meaning of, and in transactions complying with, Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act, (ii) entities qualifying as “accredited
investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, or
any entity in which all of the equity owners are such accredited investors, or (iii) pursuant to any other exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, subject in the case of this clause (iii) to (a) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of
a letter substantially in the form hereof, (b) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of an opinion of counsel acceptable to
the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (c) the receipt
by the Certificate Registrar of such other evidence acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or
transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and other applicable laws (including applicable state and foreign securities
laws), and (d) a written undertaking to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with the proposed transfer.
It understands that the Certificate (and any subsequent Certificate) has not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason
of a specified exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona
fide nature of the Purchaser’s investment intent (or intent to resell to only certain investors in certain exempted transactions)
as expressed herein.



 


		3.	The Purchaser acknowledges that the Certificate (and any Certificate issued on transfer or exchange
thereof) has not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction,
and that the Certificate cannot be reoffered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless it is registered or qualified thereunder
or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.



 


		4.	The Purchaser has reviewed the applicable Private Placement Memorandum dated January 22, 2018,
relating to the Certificates (the “Private Placement Memorandum”) and the agreements and other materials referred
to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions
contemplated by the Private Placement Memorandum.



 






    D-1-2 


     


    

 


		5.	The Purchaser hereby undertakes to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement in its capacity as an owner of a Certificate or Certificates, as the case may be (each, a “Certificateholder”),
in all respects as if it were a signatory thereto. This undertaking is made for the benefit of the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate
Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and all Certificateholders present and future.



 


		6.	The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any portion of the Certificate, except in compliance
with Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.



 


		7.	Check one of the following:



 


		☐	The Purchaser is a “U.S.
Tax Person” (as defined below) and it has attached hereto an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9
(or successor form).



 


		☐	The Purchaser is not
a “U.S. Tax Person” (as defined below) and under applicable law in effect on the date hereof, no taxes will be required
to be withheld by the Certificate Registrar (or its agent) with respect to distributions to be made on the Certificate(s). The
Purchaser has attached hereto [(i) a duly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or successor form), which identifies such
Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate(s) and states that such Purchaser is not a U.S. Tax Person, (ii) two
duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (and all appropriate attachments) or (iii)]* two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI
(or successor form), which identify such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate(s) and state that interest and original
issue discount on the Certificate(s) is, or is expected to be, effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. The Purchaser
agrees to provide to the Certificate Registrar updated [IRS Forms W-8BEN, IRS Forms W-8BEN-E, IRS Forms W-8IMY or]* IRS Forms W-8ECI[,
as the case may be]*, any applicable successor IRS forms, or such other certifications as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably
request, on or before the date that any such IRS form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence
of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS form of certification furnished by it to the Certificate Registrar.



 


For purposes of this
paragraph 7, “U.S. Tax Person” means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, partnership
(except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations), or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of
the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, including any entity treated as a corporation or partnership
for federal income tax purposes, an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source,
or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and
one or more such U.S. Tax Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust (or, to the extent provided
in applicable Treasury Regulations, certain trusts in existence on August 20, 1996 that have elected to be treated as U.S. Tax
Persons).

(1) Debt Service
Coverage Ratios are updated periodically as new NOI figures become available from borrowers on an asset level. In all cases the
most current DSCR provided by the Servicer is used. To the extent that no DSCR is provided by the Servicer, information from the
offering document is used. The Trustee makes no representations as to the accuracy of the data provided by the borrower for this
calculation.


	 
	 	 	 
	 	(2) Anticipated
                     Remaining Term and WAM are each calculated based upon the term from the current month to the earlier of the
                     Anticipated Repayment Date, if applicable, and the Maturity Date. 



	 
	 	 	 
	 	(3) Data
                     in this table was calculated by allocating pro-rata the current loan information to the properties based
                     upon the Cut-Off Date balance of each property as disclosed in the offering document.



	 
	 	 	 
	 	The Scheduled Balance Totals reflect
    the aggregate balances of all pooled loans as reported in the CREFC Loan Periodic Update File. To the extent that the Scheduled
    Balance Total figure for the “State” and “Property” stratification tables is not equal to the sum
    of the scheduled balance figures for each state or property, the difference is explained by loans that have been modified
    into a split loan structure. The “State” and “Property” stratification tables do not include the balance
    of the subordinate note (sometimes called the B-piece or a “hope note”) of a loan that has been modified into
    a split-loan structure. Rather, the scheduled balance for each state or property only reflects the balance of the senior note
    (sometimes called the A-piece) of a loan that has been modified into a split-loan structure.	 
	 	 	 
	 	Note: There are no Hyper-Amortization
    Loans included in the Mortgage Pool.

                                         reported by the Master Servicer. An NOI of 0.00 means the Master Servicer did not report
                                         NOI figures in their loan level reporting.

		3.	Disclosures
                                         Required by Law. If you or any NRSRO Representative is requested or required (orally
                                         or in writing, by interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigatory demand, request for information
                                         or documents, deposition or similar process relating to any legal proceeding, investigation,
                                         hearing or otherwise) to disclose any Confidential Information, you agree to provide
                                         the relevant Furnishing Entity with notice as soon as practicable (except in the case
                                         of regulatory or other governmental inquiry, examination or investigation, and otherwise
                                         to the extent practical and permitted by law, regulation or regulatory or other governmental
                                         authority) that a request to disclose the Confidential Information has been made so that
                                         the relevant Furnishing Entity may seek an



 






     Z-4


     


    

 



appropriate
protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information if it
so chooses. Unless otherwise required by a court or other governmental or regulatory authority to do so, and provided that you
been informed by written notice that the related Furnishing Entity is seeking a protective order or other reasonable assurance
for confidential treatment with respect to the requested Confidential Information, you agree not to disclose the Confidential
Information while the Furnishing Entity’s effort to obtain such a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential
treatment is pending. You agree to reasonably cooperate with each Furnishing Entity in its efforts to obtain a protective order
or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the Confidential Information that
is being disclosed, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity; provided, however, that in no event shall the
NRSRO be required to take a position that such information should be entitled to receive such a protective order or reasonable
assurance as to confidential treatment. If a Furnishing Entity succeeds in obtaining a protective order or other remedy, you agree
to comply with its terms with respect to the disclosure of the Confidential Information, at the sole expense of such Furnishing
Entity. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the relevant Furnishing Entity waives compliance with the
provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement in writing, you agree to furnish only such information as you are legally required
to disclose, at the sole expense of the relevant Furnishing Entity.

Ladies
and Gentlemen:


 


This
letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by _________________ (the “Transferor”) to _________________
(the “Transferee”) of the Excess Servicing Fee Right established under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
dated as of January 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), entered into and executed with respect
to the above-referenced transaction. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings
set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferee hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as the Depositor
and the Master Servicer, that:


 


1.           The
Transferee is acquiring the right to receive Excess Servicing Fees with respect to the Mortgage Loans as to which __________________
is the applicable Master Servicer (the “Excess Servicing Fee Right”) for its own account for investment and
not with a view to or for sale or transfer in connection with any distribution thereof, in whole or in part, in any manner which
would violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any applicable state securities
laws.


 



    AA-2-1 


     


    

 





2.           The
Transferee understands that (a) the Excess Servicing Fee Right has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act
or registered or qualified under any applicable state securities laws, (b) none of the Depositor, the Trustee, Certificate Administrator
or the Certificate Registrar is obligated so to register or qualify the Excess Servicing Fee Right, and (c) the Excess Servicing
Fee Right may not be resold or transferred unless it is (i) registered pursuant to the Securities Act and registered or qualified
pursuant to any applicable state securities laws or (ii) sold or transferred in transactions which are exempt from such registration
and qualification and (A) the Depositor has received a certificate from the prospective transferor substantially in the form attached
as Exhibit AA-1 to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and (B) each of the Master Servicer and the Depositor have received a
certificate from the prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit AA-2 to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


3.           The
Transferee understands that it may not sell or otherwise transfer the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any interest therein except
in compliance with the provisions of Section 3.12 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which provisions it has carefully reviewed.


 


4.           Neither
the Transferee nor anyone acting on its behalf has (a) offered, pledged, sold, disposed of or otherwise transferred the Excess
Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security to any person in any manner,
(b) solicited any offer to buy or accept a pledge, disposition or other transfer of the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest
in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security from any person in any manner, (c) otherwise approached or negotiated
with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security with
any person in any manner, (d) made any general solicitation with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the
Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or (e) taken
any other action with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar
security, which (in the case of any of the acts described in clauses (a) through (e) above) would constitute a distribution of
the Excess Servicing Fee Right under the Securities Act, would render the disposition of the Excess Servicing Fee Right a violation
of Section 5 of the Securities Act or any state securities law or would require registration or qualification of the Excess Servicing
Fee Right pursuant thereto. The Transferee will not act, nor has it authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in any
manner set forth in the foregoing sentence with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing
Fee Right or any other similar security.


 


5.           The
Transferee has been furnished with all information regarding (a) the Depositor, (b) the Excess Servicing Fee Right and any payments
thereon, (c) the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Fund created pursuant thereto, (d) the nature, performance and
servicing of the Mortgage Loans, and (e) all related matters that it has requested.


 


6.           The
Transferee is (a) a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (b)
an “accredited investor” as defined in any of paragraphs (1), (2), (3) and (7) of Rule 501(a) under the Securities
Act or an entity in which all of the equity owners come within such paragraphs. The Transferee has such knowledge and experience
in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an


 






    AA-2-2 


     


    

 


investment
in the Excess Servicing Fee Right; the Transferee has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary
to make an informed investment decision; and the Transferee is able to bear the economic risks of such investment and can afford
a complete loss of such investment.


 


7.           The
Transferee agrees (i) to keep all information relating to the Trust, the Trust Fund and the parties to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, and made available to it, confidential, (ii) not to use or disclose such information in any manner which could result
in a violation of any provision of the Securities Act or would require registration of the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any Certificate
pursuant to the Securities Act, and (iii) not to disclose such information, and to cause its officers, directors, partners, employees,
agents or representatives not to disclose such information, in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, to any other Person
other than such holder’s auditors, legal counsel and regulators, except to the extent such disclosure is required by law,
court order or other legal requirement or to the extent such information is of public knowledge at the time of disclosure by such
holder or has become generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by such holder; provided, however,
that such holder may provide all or any part of such information to any other Person who is contemplating an acquisition of the
Excess Servicing Fee Right if, and only if, such Person (x) confirms in writing such prospective acquisition and (y) agrees in
writing to keep such information confidential, not to use or disclose such information in any manner which could result in a violation
of any provision of the Securities Act or would require registration of the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any Certificates pursuant
to the Securities Act and not to disclose such information, and to cause its officers, directors, partners, employees, agents
or representatives not to disclose such information, in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, to any other Person other
than such Persons’ auditors, legal counsel and regulators.


 


8.           The
Transferee acknowledges that the holder of the Excess Servicing Fee Right shall not have any rights under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement except as set forth in Section 3.12(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and that the Excess Servicing Fee Rate
may be reduced to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

	II.	Executive
                                         Summary



 


Based
on the requirements and qualifications set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as well as the items listed below, the
Operating Advisor (in accordance with the Operating Advisor’s analysis requirements outlined in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement) has undertaken a limited review of the Special Servicer’s reported actions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
on the loans identified in this report. Based solely on such limited review and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications
set forth herein, the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer [is/is
not] operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement during the prior calendar year on an “asset-level basis”. [The Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer has failed to materially comply with the Servicing Standard as a result of
the following material deviations.]


 


		●	[LIST
                                         OF MATERIAL DEVIATION ITEMS]



 





In

		III.	List
                                         of Items that Were Considered in Compiling this Report



 


In
rendering our assessment herein, we examined and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of the items listed below:


 


	1.	Any Major
                                Decision Reporting Package that is delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor by the
                                Special Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.



 


	2.	Reports
                                by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the certificate
                                administrator’s website that is relevant to the operating advisor’s obligations under
                                the PSA and certain information it has reasonably requested from the special servicer [AFTER AN
                                OPERATING ADVISOR CONSULTATION EVENT:] and each Asset Status Report (after the occurrence and
                                continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and each Final Asset Status Report, in
                                each case, delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling
                                and Servicing Agreement.



 


	3.	The Special
                                Servicer’s assessment of compliance report, attestation report by a third party regarding
                                the Special Servicer’s compliance with its obligations, and non-discretionary portions of
                                net present value calculations and Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations delivered or made available
                                to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.



 


	4.	[LIST OTHER
                                REVIEWED INFORMATION]



 



     BB-2


     


    

 





	5.	[INSERT
                                IF AFTER AN OPERATING ADVISOR CONSULTATION EVENT:] Consulted with the Special Servicer as provided
                                under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on Asset Status Reports for a Specially Serviced Loan
                                delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and
                                Servicing Agreement and with respect to Major Decisions processed by the Special Servicer.



 


	6.	[INSERT
                                IF AFTER AN OPERATING ADVISOR CONSULTATION EVENT:] During the prior year, the Operating Advisor
                                consulted with the Special Servicer regarding its strategy plan for a limited number of issues
                                related to the following Specially Serviced Loans: [LIST]. The Operating Advisor participated
                                in discussions and made strategic observations and recommended alternative courses of action to
                                the extent it deemed such observations and recommendations appropriate.



 


NOTE:
The Operating Advisor’s review of the above materials should be considered a limited review and not be considered a full
or limited audit. For instance, we did not review each page of the Special Servicer’s policy and procedure manuals (including
amendments and appendices), review underlying lease agreements or similar underlying documents, re-engineer the quantitative aspects
of their net present value calculation, visit any related property, visit the Special Servicer, visit the Directing Holder or
interact with any borrower. In addition, our review of the net present value calculations and Appraisal Reduction calculations
is limited to the mathematical accuracy of the calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portions
of the applicable formulas, and as such, does not take into account the reasonableness of the discretionary portions of such formulas. 


 


IV.
Assumptions, Qualifications and Disclaimers Related to the Work Product Undertaken and Opinions Related to this Report


 


		1.	[As
                                         provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Operating Advisor is not required
                                         to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviations from, the Servicing Standard
                                         or the special servicer’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
                                         that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith,
                                         to be immaterial.]



 


		2.	In
                                         rendering our assessment herein, we have assumed that all executed factual statements,
                                         instruments, and other documents that we have relied upon in rendering this assessment
                                         have been executed by persons with legal capacity to execute such documents.



 


		3.	Other
                                         than the receipt of any Major Decision Reporting Package or any Asset Status Report that
                                         is delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the
                                         Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Operating Advisor did not participate in, or have
                                         access to, the Special Servicer’s and Directing Holder’s discussion(s) regarding
                                         any Specially Serviced Loan. The Operating Advisor does not have authority to speak with
                                         the Directing Holder or borrower directly. As such, the Operating Advisor relied upon
                                         the information delivered to it by the Special Servicer as well as its interaction with
                                         the Special Servicer, if any, in gathering the relevant information to generate this
                                         report. The



 









     BB-3


     


    

 


services
that we perform are not designed and cannot be relied upon to detect fraud or illegal acts should any exist.


  


		4.	The
                                         Special Servicer has the legal authority and responsibility to service any Specially
                                         Serviced Loans pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Operating Advisor
                                         has no responsibility or authority to alter the standards set forth in the Pooling and
                                         Servicing Agreement or the actions of the Special Servicer.



 


		5.	Confidentiality
                                         and other contractual limitations limit the Operating Advisor’s ability to outline
                                         the details or substance of any communication held between it and the Special Servicer
                                         regarding any Specially Serviced Loans and certain information it reviewed in connection
                                         with its duties under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As a result, this report may
                                         not reflect all the relevant information that the Operating Advisor is given access to
                                         by the Special Servicer.



 


		6.	The
                                         Operating Advisor is not empowered to speak with any investors directly. If the investors
                                         have questions regarding this report, they should address such questions to the certificate
                                         administrator through the certificate administrator’s website.



 


		7.	This
                                         report does not constitute recommendations to buy, sell or hold any security, nor does
                                         the Operating Advisor take into account market prices of securities or financial markets
                                         generally when performing its limited review of the Special Servicer as described above.
                                         The Operating Advisor does not have a fiduciary relationship with any Certificateholder
                                         or any other party or individual. Nothing is intended to or should be construed as creating
                                         a fiduciary relationship between the Operating Advisor and any Certificateholder, party
                                         or individual.

                                         to complete an Asset Review of such Delinquent Mortgage Loan, ARR tests such Delinquent
                                         Mortgage Loan for compliance with each representation and warranty made by the related
                                         Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Delinquent Mortgage Loan as follows:



 


		■	ARR
                                         reviews each representation and warranty and each item included in the Review Materials
                                         applicable or related to such representation or warranty to determine whether there is
                                         any evidence that such representation or warranty was not true when made by the related
                                         Mortgage Loan Seller



 


		■	For

		●	whether
                                         ARR has determined that there is any evidence that such representation or warranty was
                                         not true when made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, and



 


		○	if
                                         so, stating the aspect of the applicable representation or warranty that does not appear
                                         to have been true when made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller and ARR’s basis
                                         for its conclusion



 


		○	completing
                                         the Asset Review Report by setting forth, for each Delinquent Mortgage Loan, the information
