Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2018, between Deutsche Mortgage & Asset Receiving Corporation, as Depositor, Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as Special Servicer, Wilmington Trust, National
Association, as Trustee, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Certificate Administrator, Paying Agent and Custodian, and
Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as Operating Advisor.


 


PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:


 


(Terms used but not defined in this Preliminary
Statement shall have

the meanings specified in Article I hereof)


 


The Depositor intends
to sell pass-through certificates to be issued hereunder in multiple Classes which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial
ownership interest in the Trust Fund consisting primarily of the Mortgage Loans.


 


The Lower-Tier REMIC
will hold the Mortgage Loans 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 in the Lower-Tier REMIC, which
will be represented by the Class R Certificates.


 


The Upper-Tier REMIC
will hold the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and certain other related assets subject to this Agreement and will issue (i) the Class A,
Class B, Class C, Class D and Class HRR Certificates, which are designated as classes of regular interests
in the Upper-Tier REMIC, as classes of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC and (ii) the Class UTR
Interest as the sole class of residual interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC, which will be represented by the Class R Certificates.


 


The Mortgaged Property
that secures the Mortgage Loan identified as Loan No. 1 on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (“The Gateway Mortgage Loan”)
also secures (i) eight companion loans to the same Borrower, which are pari passu in right of payment to The Gateway Mortgage
Loan (“The Gateway Pari Passu Companion Loans”), and (ii) six companion loans, which are subordinate in right
of payment to The Gateway Mortgage Loan (“The Gateway Subordinate Companion Loans” and, together with The Gateway
Pari Passu Companion Loans, “The Gateway Companion Loans”) and The Gateway Pari Passu Companion Loans. The Gateway
Whole Loan is serviced pursuant to (i) this Agreement and (ii) the related Intercreditor Agreement. The Gateway Companion
Loans and all amounts attributable thereto will not be assets of the Trust Fund or the Trust REMICs and will be beneficially owned
by the related Companion Loan Noteholders.


 


The portfolio of Mortgaged
Properties that secures the Mortgage Loan identified as Loan No. 2 on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (the “TriBeCa House
Mortgage Loan”) also secures (i) two companion loans to the same Borrower, which are pari passu in right of payment
to the TriBeCa House Mortgage Loan (the “TriBeCa House Pari Passu Companion Loans”), and (ii) one companion
loan, which is subordinate in right of payment to the TriBeCa House Mortgage Loan (the “TriBeCa House Subordinate Companion
Loan” and, together with the


 



    	 



     


    

 


TriBeCa House Pari Passu Companion Loans, the “TriBeCa House Companion Loans”)
and the Tribeca House Pari Passu Companion Loans. The TriBeCa House Whole Loan is serviced pursuant to (i) this Agreement and (ii) the
related Intercreditor Agreement. The TriBeCa House Companion Loans and all amounts attributable thereto will not be assets of the
Trust Fund or the Trust REMICs and will be beneficially owned by the related Companion Loan Noteholders.


 


The following table sets
forth the Class designation and initial Certificate Balance of each Class of Regular Certificates (collectively, the “Corresponding
Certificates”) and the corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest(s) (the “Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest”)
for each Class of Corresponding Certificates.


 


	
        Corresponding

Certificates
	
        Initial
Certificate 

Balance
	
        Corresponding


Lower-Tier 

Regular Interests(1)
	
        Initial
Lower-Tier 

Principal Balance

	Class A	$289,200,000	LA	$289,200,000
	Class B	$41,600,000	LB	$41,600,000
	Class C	$32,000,000	LC	$32,000,000
	Class D	$5,627,000	LD	$5,627,000
	Class HRR	$21,573,000	LHRR	$21,573,000


 


		(1)	The Lower-Tier Regular Interest that correspond to any particular Class of Regular Certificates
also correspond to each other and, accordingly, constitute the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest with respect to each
other.



 


The Class R Certificates
do not have Certificate Balances. The Certificate Balance of any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates outstanding at any time represents
the maximum amount which holders thereof are entitled to receive as distributions allocable to principal from the cash flow on
the Mortgage Loans and the other assets in the Trust Fund; provided that if amounts previously allocated as Realized Losses
to a Class of Certificates in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof are subsequently recovered (including without limitation
after the reduction of the Certificate Balance of such Class to zero), such Class may receive distributions in respect of such
recoveries in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 4.01 of this Agreement.


 


As of the Cut-off Date,
the Mortgage Loans have an aggregate Stated Principal Balance equal to approximately $390,000,000.


 


To the fullest extent
permitted by law, any inconsistencies or ambiguities in this Agreement or in the administration of this Agreement shall be resolved
in a manner that preserves the validity and intended tax treatment of the Trust REMICs and causes the maximum amounts to be paid
with respect to the holders of the REMIC Regular Interests.

Constructions. For purposes of this Agreement, reference to the most or next most subordinate Class of Certificates outstanding
at any time shall mean the most or next most subordinate Class of Certificates then outstanding as among the Class A, Class B,
Class C, Class D and Class HRR Certificates. For purposes of this Agreement, each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates shall be
deemed to be outstanding only to the extent its respective Certificate Balance has not been reduced to zero. For purposes of this
Agreement, the Class R Certificates shall be outstanding so long as the Trust Fund has not been terminated pursuant to Section 9.01

Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of this Agreement, each reference to any action by the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer that is subject to the consent or approval of the Directing Holder, or consultation with the Directing Holder or the Operating
Advisor, shall in each case be further subject to the determination by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that taking or refraining
from taking the action as proposed by the Directing Holder or the Operating Advisor or not taking such action as proposed by the
Master Servicer or Special Servicer if the Directing Holder fails to grant its consent or approval, or if the Directing Holder
or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, fail to express their concurrence, to any action proposed to be taken by the Master Servicer
or Special Servicer, in each case, is consistent with the Servicing Standard. In each case, (a) if the response by the

Directing
Holder or the Operating Advisor hereunder is inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
shall take such action as is consistent with the Servicing Standard, and (b) if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer determines
that immediate action is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and, in the case of any Whole Loan, the related
Companion Loan Noteholders, (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and Companion Loan Noteholders, as applicable,
constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account
the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)), and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, has made
a reasonable effort to contact the Directing Holder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, it may take such action without waiting
for a response from the Directing Holder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable; provided that the Special Servicer or
Master Servicer, as applicable, shall provide the Directing Holder or the Operating Advisor, if applicable) with prompt written
notice following such action including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis for such action.

the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Companion Loan
Noteholders in attempting to cause the related Borrower to provide information relating to the related Whole Loan and the related
notes, and that such holders reasonably determine to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s)
relating to such Other Securitization.

With respect to Whole
Loans, except for the Mortgage Note referred to in clause (i)(B) of the second preceding paragraph, only a single
original set of the Loan Documents specified above is required to be delivered.


 


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, the Mortgage Loan
Seller will, or will at the expense of the Mortgage Loan Seller retain a third party vendor to, (1) complete (to the extent
necessary) and submit for recording in favor of the Trustee in the following form: “Wilmington Trust, National Association,

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 has not yet been submitted for recordation; and (2) complete
(to the extent necessary) and file in the appropriate public filing office each UCC assignment of financing statement referred
to in Section 2.01(a)(v)(B) and (xiii) which has not yet been submitted for filing or recording. Each such document
shall reflect that the recorded original should be returned by the public 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 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 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

Loan Seller receives the original recorded or filed copy, the 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


 






    -103- 


     


    

 


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 Mortgage Loan Seller under the 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 Companion Loans, on behalf of and for the benefit of the related
Companion Loan Noteholders. In the event that any such original document, or in the case of a 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.


 


(b)       In
connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Depositor shall direct, and hereby
represents and warrants that it has directed, the Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the 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 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 (or,
with respect to a leasehold interest with respect to a space lease or air rights, a copy of the related space lease or air rights
lease), if applicable, for each Mortgage Loan and an original 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 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 Mortgage Loan Seller cannot deliver, or
cause to be delivered, as to any Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage Note, such Mortgage Loan Seller


 






    -104- 


     


    

 


shall 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.


 


If the Mortgage Loan
Seller or the Depositor cannot deliver, or cause to be delivered, as to any Mortgage Loan (subject to any qualifications provided
for herein), 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), Section 2.01(a)(iv), Section 2.01(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 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 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 appropriate county recorder’s or filing office such original or copy, provided such extensions
do not exceed 24 months in the aggregate).


 


(c)       Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, with respect to the documents referred to in Section 2.01(a)(xviii) and Section 2.01(a)(xix)
of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall hold the original of each such document in trust on behalf of the Trust in order to
draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trust and the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the delivery
requirements of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01 of this Agreement by delivering the original
of each such document to the Master Servicer, who shall forward a copy of the applicable document to the Custodian. The 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 in care of the Master Servicer) required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such
letter of credit on behalf of the Trust. In the event that the documents specified in Section 2.01(a)(xix) of
this Agreement are missing with respect to any Mortgage Loan because the related assignment or amendment documents have not been
completed, the 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
from the Master Servicer and immediately remitting such funds (or causing such funds to be remitted) to the Master Servicer.

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. If the Custodian does not send a closing date certification on the Closing Date,
it shall send an email confirmation to the Trustee that it has received all of the Mortgage Notes (or copies or lost note affidavits
as permitted), subject to any exceptions noted therein, on the Closing Date.


 


On or about the 60th
day following the Closing Date (and, if any exceptions are noted, again on or about the 90th day following the Closing Date and
monthly thereafter until the earliest of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the day on which all material

2.01(a)(xi), Section 2.01(a)(xii) through Section 2.01(a)(xvi), Section 2.01(a)(xviii) and Section
2.01(a)(xix) of this Agreement, as identified to it in writing as a document required to be delivered by the 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


 






    -106- 


     


    

 


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.


 


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 and the 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 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 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 the Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver a power of attorney substantially
in the form of Exhibit C to the 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 Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to effect (at the
expense of the 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 Section 2.01 or Section 2.02 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.


 






    -107- 


     


    

 


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.

(vi)         There
is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or threatened against the Depositor in any court or by or before any other

(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

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.

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 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


 






    -110- 


     


    

 


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 notice, a “Rule 15Ga-1 Notice”)
to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the 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. The 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 Mortgage Loan Seller, the Depositor and its Affiliates to
comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act 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 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 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 COMM 2018-HOME Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-HOME
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


 






    -111- 


     


    

 


procedures set forth in this Section 2.03(d)
with respect to such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal. In no event shall 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 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 the Mortgage Loan Seller made pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to any
Mortgage Loan. If any party hereto discovers or receives notice of a Defect or a Breach, then such party shall give prompt written
notice thereof to the Mortgage Loan Seller, the other parties hereto, the related Companion Loan Noteholder (if any) and, for so
long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the applicable Directing Holder. The Special Servicer
shall determine 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, any such Defect, a “Material Defect,” or any such Breach, 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)(xviii)
of this Agreement are not delivered as required in the 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. If such Defect
or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect or a Material Breach, then the Special Servicer shall (i) 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 Mortgage Loan Seller, the applicable Directing Holder (for so long as no Consultation
Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), 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),
and the related Companion Loan Noteholder (if any), and (ii) request that the Mortgage Loan Seller, not later than 90 days
from the 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 Mortgage Loan Seller has received notice in accordance with the terms of the 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 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
Whole Loan, the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account) any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided
that if (i) such Material Defect


 






    -112- 


     


    

 


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 Certificate Administrator (who will
promptly deliver a copy of such officer’s certificate 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), the Trustee, the
Operating Advisor and, prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the applicable 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, self-storage 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.


 


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 Mortgage Loan Seller will not be obligated to repurchase the Mortgage Loan and such Material Breach or Material Defect will
be considered cured 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 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 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 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


 






    -113- 


     


    

 


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 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 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.


 


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 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 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 Mortgage Loan Seller shall remit the amount of such costs and expenses and upon its making such remittance,
the 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 Mortgage Loan Seller are subsequently obtained from the related Borrower, the portion of the cure
payment made by the Mortgage Loan Seller equal to such fees or expenses obtained from the related Borrower shall promptly be returned
to the Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


(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 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 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 Mortgage Loan Seller, as
the case may be, to the Mortgage Loan Seller as shall be necessary to vest in the Mortgage Loan Seller the legal and


 






    -114- 


     


    

 


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 Mortgage Loan Seller.


 


(g)       The
Special Servicer shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, use reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations
of the Mortgage Loan Seller under Section 6 of the 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 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 Controlling Class Representative
(as identified to the Custodian by the Certificate Administrator) and the 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 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 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


 






    -115- 


     


    

 


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 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

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 the 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 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 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 Certificateholders and, if applicable, 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 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 the 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


 






    -127- 


     


    

 


actual knowledge to the contrary, may conclusively rely upon a representation
of the 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 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 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.
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.


 






    -128- 


     


    

 


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 Whole Loans are limited by and subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement.


 


If any Mortgage Loan
included in any Whole Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund and the servicing and administration of such Whole Loan is to be
governed by a separate servicing agreement and not by this Agreement, the Master Servicer and, if such 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 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 Whole Loan and any related REO Property has
been entered into and, notwithstanding that neither such Mortgage Loan nor any related 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 to service such Whole Loan or any related 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 Whole Loans. In the event of any inconsistency or discrepancy between the provisions, terms or
conditions of an Intercreditor Agreement related to a 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


 






    -129- 


     


    

 


master servicing functions
shall not be imputed to employees performing special servicing functions.


 


Section 3.02       Liability

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 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.

(d)       If
any Loss of Value Payments are received in connection with a Material Defect or Material Breach, as the case may be, pursuant to
or as contemplated by Section 2.03(e) of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more
non-interest bearing accounts (collectively, the “Loss of Value Reserve Fund”) to be held for the benefit of
the Certificateholders, for purposes of holding such Loss of Value Payments. Each account that constitutes the Loss of Value Reserve
Fund shall be an Eligible 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. 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 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,
for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee as the Holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests. The Interest Reserve
Account shall be established and maintained as an Eligible Account or as a sub-account of an Eligible Account.


 


On each Master Servicer
Remittance Date occurring in (i) January of each calendar year that is not a leap year and (ii) February of
each calendar year, unless in either case such Master Servicer Remittance Date is the final Master Servicer Remittance Date, the
Certificate Administrator shall calculate the Withheld Amounts. On each such Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Certificate Administrator
shall, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that does not accrue interest on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months,
withdraw or be deemed 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 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 Remittance Date in March of each calendar year (or in February if the final Distribution
Date will occur in such month), the Certificate Administrator shall transfer to the Lower-Tier Distribution Account the aggregate
of all Withheld Amounts on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account.


 


(f)       The
Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain the Upper-Tier Distribution Account in its own name for the benefit of the
Trustee and for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Upper-Tier Distribution Account shall be established and maintained
as an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account. Promptly on each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator
shall withdraw or be deemed to withdraw from the Lower-


 






    -136- 


     


    

 


Tier Distribution Account and deposit or be deemed to deposit in the Upper-Tier
Distribution Account on or before such date the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and the amount of any Prepayment Premiums and Yield
Maintenance Charges for such Distribution Date to be distributed in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests pursuant to Section 4.01(a)
and Section 4.01(c) of this Agreement on such date.


 


(g)       With
respect to each Whole Loan or any related REO Property, the Master Servicer shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, a Whole
Loan Collection Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited within two Business Days following
receipt of properly identified funds the following payments and collections received or made by or on behalf of it on such Whole
Loan or REO Property subsequent to the Cut-off Date:


 


(i)       all
payments on account of principal on such Whole Loan, including the principal component of Unscheduled Payments;


 


(ii)      all

(iii)     any

with respect to funds held in such Whole Loan Collection Account;


 


(iv)     all
Net REO Proceeds withdrawn from the related REO Account in respect of such Whole Loan pursuant to Section 3.15(b);


 


(v)      any
amounts received from Borrowers which represent recoveries of Property Protection Expenses and are allocable to such Whole Loan,
to the extent not permitted to be retained by the Master Servicer as provided herein;


 


(vi)     all
Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds received in respect of such Whole Loan or any related REO Property
(other than Gain-on-Sale Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds that are received in connection with a purchase of all the Mortgage
Loans and any REO Properties in the Trust Fund and that are to be deposited in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account pursuant to
Section 9.01), together with any amounts representing recoveries of Nonrecoverable Advances, including any recovery
of Unliquidated Advances, in respect of such Whole Loan; provided, that any Liquidation Proceeds related to a sale pursuant
to Section 3.16 hereof or pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement of a Mortgage Loan included in a Whole Loan
shall be deposited directly into the Collection Account and applied solely to pay expenses relating to that Mortgage Loan and to
Available Funds and any Liquidation Proceeds related to a sale of a related Companion Loan included in a Whole Loan shall be deposited
into the Whole Loan Collection Account and applied solely to pay expenses relating to that Companion Loan and to pay amounts due
to the related Companion Loan Noteholder;


 


(vii)    Penalty
Charges on such Whole Loan to the extent required to offset interest on Advances and debt service advances made by a Companion
Loan Service Provider and Additional Trust Fund Expenses pursuant to Section 3.12(d);


 






    -137- 


     


    

 


(viii)        any
amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.08(b) in
connection with losses resulting from a deductible clause in a blanket or master force placed policy in respect of such Whole
Loan;


 


(ix)         any
other amounts required by the provisions of this Agreement (including with respect to the Companion Loans or any mezzanine indebtedness
that may exist on a future date, all amounts received pursuant to the cure and purchase rights or reimbursement obligations set
forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, as applicable) to be deposited into the applicable
Whole Loan Collection Account by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer;


 


(x)          any
cure payments remitted by any Companion Loan Noteholder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement; and


 


(xi)          any
Compensating Interest Payments in respect of such Whole Loan pursuant to Section 3.17(c).


 


The foregoing

that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges (subject to Section 3.12
hereof), Assumption Fees, assumption application fees, Modification Fees, consent fees, loan service transaction fees, extension
fees, demand fees, beneficiary statement charges and similar fees need not be deposited into the applicable Whole Loan Collection
Account by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable in accordance with Section 3.12 hereof, shall be entitled to retain
any such charges and fees received with respect to the Whole Loans as additional compensation. If the Master Servicer deposits
in the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such
amount from such Whole Loan Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.


 


Each Whole
Loan Collection Account shall be maintained as a segregated account, separate and apart from any trust fund created for mortgage
backed securities of other series and the other accounts of the Master Servicer; provided, that such Whole Loan Collection
Account may be a sub-account of the Master Servicer’s Collection Account or may be maintained on a ledger basis but shall,
for purposes of this Agreement, be treated as a separate account. Each Whole Loan Collection Account shall be established and maintained
as an Eligible Account or as a sub-account of an Eligible Account.


 


Upon receipt
of any of the foregoing amounts described in clauses (i), (ii), (v) and (vi) above with respect to each Whole Loan for so long
as it is a Specially Serviced Loan but is not a REO Loan, the Special Servicer shall remit within one Business Day such amounts
to the Master Servicer for deposit into the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account in accordance with the first paragraph of
this Section 3.05(g), unless the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard, that
a particular item should not be deposited because of a restrictive endorsement or


 






    -138- 


     


    

 


other appropriate reason. Any such amounts received
by the Special Servicer with respect to a REO Property related to any Whole Loan shall initially be deposited by the Special Servicer
into the related Whole Loan REO Account and remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit into the applicable Whole Loan Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.15(b). With respect to any such amounts paid by check to the order of the Special Servicer,
the Special Servicer (A) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan shall endorse without recourse or warranty such check
to the order of the Master Servicer and shall promptly deliver any such check to the Master Servicer by overnight courier and (B) with
respect to any REO Loan shall deposit such check into the applicable Whole Loan REO Account.


 


(h)       Except
as otherwise set forth in Section 3.06(b), with respect to each Due Date and any related Companion Loan, on each Whole
Loan Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall remit, from amounts on deposit in the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account

available funds to the account of such Companion Loan Noteholder or an agent therefor appearing on the Companion Loan Noteholder
Register on the related date such amounts as are required to be remitted (or, if no such account so appears or information relating
thereto is not provided at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date such amounts are required to be remitted, by check sent
by first class mail to the address of such Companion Loan Noteholder or its agent appearing on the Companion Loan Noteholder Register)
the portion of the applicable Whole Loan Remittance Amount allocable to such Companion Loan Noteholder.


 


(i)       Prior
to the Master Servicer Remittance Date relating to any Collection Period in which Gain-on-Sale Proceeds are received, the Certificate
Administrator shall establish and maintain the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, which may have one or more sub-accounts, to be held
in its own name for the benefit of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, and with respect to each Whole Loan,
the related Companion Loan Noteholders, and the Trustee as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests. Each account that constitutes
a Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account. On each Master Servicer Remittance
Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account or, if allocable to any Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall
withdraw from the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account, and remit to the Certificate Administrator (i) in the case of
the Mortgage Loans (other than the Whole Loans), for deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account, as applicable (which the Certificate
Administrator shall then deposit in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account), and (ii) in the case of the Whole Loans, for deposit
in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, all Gain-on-Sale Proceeds received during the Collection Period ending on the Determination
Date immediately prior to such Master Servicer Remittance Date which are allocable to a Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan; provided
that on the Business Day prior to the final Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Gain-on-Sale
Reserve Account and deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account (after allocation to any related Companion Loan as provided
in Section 4.01(d)), for distribution on such Distribution Date, any and all amounts then on deposit in the Gain-on-Sale
Reserve Account attributable to the Mortgage Loans.

in which case, such amounts will be reimbursed first, from the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account(s) in accordance
with Section 3.06(b) and then, out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans; provided, that for the
purposes of allocating Additional Trust Fund Expenses, (i) any amounts so paid shall be deemed allocated, (a) if relating

Depositor, as the case may be, any amount specifically required to be paid to such Person at the expense of the Trust Fund under
any provision of this Agreement to which reference is not made in any other clause of this Section 3.06(a) of
this Agreement and (B) to reimburse or pay any party to this Agreement any unpaid expenses specifically reimbursable from
the Collection Account under this Agreement (and, in the case of an amount specifically related to a Whole Loan, only to the extent
that such amounts on deposit in the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account are insufficient therefor after taking into account
any allocation set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement (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 Companion Loans from the
related Companion Loan Noteholders)), it being acknowledged that this clause (xv) shall not be construed to modify any limitation
or requirement otherwise set forth in this Agreement as to the time at which any Person is entitled to payment or reimbursement
of any amount or as to the funds from which any such payment or reimbursement is permitted to be made; provided, that (i) any
amounts so paid shall be deemed allocated, (a) if relating to a particular Mortgage Loan, to such Mortgage Loan and (b) if
not related to any particular Mortgage Loan, pro rata, among all Mortgage Loans based on the respective Stated Principal

Agreement; provided, that any amounts so paid shall be deemed allocated, (a) if relating to a particular

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 REO Loan and any related
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 and (ii) the Companion Loans.


 


The Master Servicer shall
pay to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, 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 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 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 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®  and the Operating Advisor 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),


 






    -147- 


     


    

 


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), 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 11.02
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
and the Operating Advisor 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 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 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 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


 






    -148- 


     


    

 


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 the 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 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
Companion Loan Noteholders. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create in the Certificateholders or the Companion Loan Noteholders
a right 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
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


 






    -149- 


     


    

 


Person from making a determination, that an Advance constitutes, or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.


 


If the Master Servicer
or the Trustee, 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 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 Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall make withdrawals from amounts allocated thereto in the related 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):


 


(i)         to
make remittances each month in an aggregate amount of immediately available funds equal to the allocable portion of the applicable
Whole Loan Remittance Amount (A) to the related Companion Loan Noteholders within the time frame specified in, and otherwise
in accordance with Section 3.05(h) and (B) to the Collection Account for the benefit of the Trust in respect of amounts
allocable to the related Mortgage Loan, in each case in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (after taking into
account the amounts permitted to be withdrawn from the Whole Loan Collection Account pursuant to this Section 3.06(b)) provided
that Liquidation Proceeds relating to the repurchase of any Companion Loan by the related seller thereof shall be remitted solely
to the holder of such Companion Loan, as the case may be, and Liquidation Proceeds relating to the repurchase of a Mortgage Loan
related to a Whole Loan by the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be remitted solely to the Collection Account;


 






    -150- 


     


    

 


(ii)       to
pay (A) to itself unpaid Servicing Fees (or, with respect to any Excess Servicing Fee Rights, to pay any Excess Servicing
Fees to the holder of such Excess Servicing Fee Rights pursuant to Section 3.12(a) of this Agreement) and to the Special
Servicer unpaid Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees in respect of such Whole Loan or related REO Loan, as
applicable, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, rights to payment of Servicing Fees, Special
Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees, as applicable, pursuant to this clause (ii)(A) with respect to such
Whole Loan or related REO Loan, as applicable, being limited to amounts received on or in respect of such Whole Loan (whether in
the form of payments, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds), or such REO Loan (whether in the form
of REO Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds), that are allocable as recovery of interest
thereon and (B) to the Special Servicer, each month to the extent not covered by clause (ii)(A) above, any unpaid Special
Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees in respect of such Whole Loan or related REO Loan, as applicable, remaining unpaid
out of general collections in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.06(a)(ii) of this Agreement;


 


(iii)      to
reimburse the Trustee or itself, in that order, for unreimbursed P&I Advances with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan
and to reimburse the related Companion Loan Service Provider for unreimbursed principal and/or interest advances with respect to
the applicable Companion Loan, the Master Servicer’s, the Trustee’s and the applicable Companion Loan Service Provider’s
right to reimbursement pursuant to this clause (iii) being limited to amounts received in the applicable Whole Loan Collection
Account which represent Late Collections received in respect of such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable (as allocable
thereto pursuant to the related Loan Documents and the related Intercreditor Agreement), during the applicable period; provided,
that to the extent such amounts are insufficient to repay such P&I Advances on any Mortgage Loan as to which there is a related
Subordinate Companion Loan, such P&I Advances may be reimbursed, from collections on the related Whole Loan allocable to such
Subordinate Companion Loan; provided, further, that if such P&I Advance on the applicable Mortgage Loan becomes
a Nonrecoverable Advance or a Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount, then such P&I Advance shall thereafter be reimbursed in
accordance with clause (v) below;


 


(iv)      to
reimburse the Trustee or itself, in that order, as applicable (with respect to such Whole Loan or REO Property), for unreimbursed
Servicing Advances with respect to such Whole Loan or related REO Property, the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s
respective rights to receive payment pursuant to this clause (iv) being limited to, as applicable, related payments by
the applicable Borrower with respect to such Servicing Advance, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds
and REO Proceeds with respect to such Whole Loan; provided, that if such Servicing Advance becomes a Nonrecoverable Advance
or a Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount, then such Servicing Advance shall thereafter be reimbursed in accordance with clause (v)
below;


 


(v)       (A) to
reimburse the Trustee or itself, in that order, (with respect to such Whole Loan or related REO Property), as applicable (x) with
respect to Nonrecoverable

reimbursed pursuant to the subclause first in the preceding clause (x) above and second out of general
collections in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.06(a); provided that in the case of both clause (x)
and clause (y) of this clause (v), prior to making any reimbursement from general collections, such reimbursements
shall be made first, from collections on, and proceeds of the applicable Subordinate Companion Loan, if any, and then from collections
on, and proceeds of the related Mortgage Loan, or in the case of a Pari Passu Whole Loan with a Pari Passu Companion Loan, on a
pro rata basis as between the Mortgage Loan and any related Pari Passu Companion Loans (based on the Mortgage Loan’s
Stated Principal Balance or related Pari Passu Companion Loan’s principal balance) and then from general collections of the
Trust (provided that, in the case of a Servicing Advance that is a Nonrecoverable Advance, 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 Companion Loans from the
related Companion Loan Noteholders) or (B) to pay itself or the Special Servicer out of general collections on such Whole
Loan and related REO Properties, any related earned Servicing Fee, Special Servicing Fee, Liquidation Fee or Workout Fee, as applicable,
that remained unpaid in accordance with clause (ii) above following a Final Recovery Determination made with respect to such
Whole Loan or related REO Property and the deposit into the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account of all amounts received in
connection therewith; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, such party’s rights to reimbursement pursuant
to this clause (v) with respect to any such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount that is a
P&I Advance, being limited (except to the extent set forth in Section 3.06(a)) to amounts on deposit in the applicable
Whole Loan Collection Account that were received in respect of the particular Mortgage Loan (as allocable thereto pursuant to the
related Loan Documents and the related Intercreditor Agreement) in the related Whole Loan as to which such Nonrecoverable Advance
or such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount were incurred (provided, that to the extent such amounts are insufficient to
repay such Advances on any Mortgage Loan as to which there is a related Subordinate Companion Loan, such P&I Advances may be

(vi)       at
such time as it reimburses the Trustee or itself, in that order, as applicable, for (A) any unreimbursed P&I Advance with

this clause (vi) with respect to any such interest on P&I Advances (including any such P&I Advance that is a Nonrecoverable
Advance or a Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount) being limited to amounts on deposit in the applicable Whole Loan Collection
Account that were received in respect of the particular Mortgage Loan (as allocable thereto pursuant to the related Loan Documents
and the related Intercreditor Agreement) in the related Whole Loan as to which such advance relates (provided, that any Mortgage
Loan as to which there is a related Subordinate Companion Loan, such interest on P&I Advances may be reimbursed from collections

(vii)       to

arising out of the enforcement of the repurchase obligation, each such Person’s right to reimbursement pursuant to this clause (vii)

(i.e., replaced) by such Person pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement, all amounts received on such Mortgage
Loan subsequent to the date of purchase or substitution, and, in the case of a substitution, with respect to the related Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan(s), all Periodic Payments due thereon during or prior to the month of substitution, in accordance with
the third paragraph of Section 2.03(g); and


 


(xix)       to
clear and terminate such Whole Loan Collection Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.


 


In the case of the amounts
payable as set forth above in this Section 3.06(b) with respect to any Whole Loan, if such amount is not specifically
payable, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the related Intercreditor Agreement, out of collections or proceeds allocable
to any particular note that is a part of such Whole Loan, such amount shall be paid from collections on, and proceeds of the related
Subordinate Companion Loan, if any, and then, from collections on, and proceeds of, on a pro rata basis as between, the
related Mortgage Loan and any related Pari Passu Companion Loans (based on the related Mortgage Loan’s principal balance
or the related Pari Passu Companion Loan’s principal balance), and then, to the extent provided for in this Agreement, from
general collections.


 


The Master Servicer shall
keep and maintain separate accounting records, on a loan by loan and property by property basis when appropriate, for the purpose
of justifying any withdrawal from any Whole Loan Collection Account. All withdrawals with respect to any Whole Loan shall be made
first, from the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account and then, from the Master Servicer’s Collection Account
to the extent permitted by Section 3.06(a). Upon 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 the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Companion Loans.


 


The Master Servicer shall
pay to the Special Servicer from the Whole Loan Collection Accounts amounts permitted to be paid to it therefrom promptly upon
receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer of such 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 recalculate the amounts
stated therein. The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting for each Specially Serviced Loan included in the


 






    -155- 


     


    

 


Whole Loan and related REO Loan, on a loan by loan and property by property basis, for the purpose of justifying any request for
withdrawal from any Whole Loan Collection Account.


 


Any permitted withdrawals
under this Section 3.06(b) with respect to reimbursement for advances or other amounts payable to an Other Trustee
shall, if applicable, also be deemed to be a permitted withdrawal for similar amounts owed to the fiscal agent of the Other Trustee,
if any.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Companion Loan, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the related Whole
Loan Collection Account and remit to the related Companion Loan Noteholders, within (x) with respect to any Subordinate Companion
Loan, if required pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified
funds and (y) with respect to any Pari Passu Companion Loan, one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds,
any amounts that represent Late Collections or Principal Prepayments on such Companion Loan or any successor REO Loan with respect
thereto, that are received by the Master Servicer prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any given Business Day (and to the
extent any such amounts are received after 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to remit such Late Collections or Principal Prepayments to the related Companion Loan Noteholders within one
(1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall remit such amounts within
two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds) (exclusive of any portion of such amount payable or reimbursable
to any third party in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement or this Agreement), unless such amount would otherwise
be included in the monthly remittance to the holder of such Companion Loan for such month.


 


If the Master Servicer
fails, as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Master Servicer Remittance Date, any related Whole Loan Remittance Date or any
other date a remittance is required to be made, as applicable, to remit to the Certificate Administrator (in respect of the related
Mortgage Loan) or the Companion Loan Noteholders (in respect of any related Companion Loan) any amounts required to be so remitted
hereunder by such date (including any P&I Advance pursuant to Section 4.07 and any Gain-on-Sale Proceeds allocable
to the Companion Loans pursuant to Section 4.01(d)(i)), the Master Servicer shall pay to the Certificate Administrator (in
respect of the Mortgage Loan) or the Companion Loan Noteholders (in respect of the Companion Loan), for the account of the Certificate
Administrator (in respect of the Mortgage Loan) or the Companion Loan Noteholders (in respect of the Companion Loans), interest,
calculated at the Prime Rate, on such amount(s) not timely remitted, from the time such payment was required to be made (without
regard to any grace period) until (but not including) the date such late payment is received by the Certificate Administrator or
the Companion Loan Noteholders, as applicable.


 


(c)       On
each Master Servicer Remittance Date, all net income and gain realized from investment of funds to which the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer is entitled pursuant to Section 3.07(b) of this Agreement shall be subject to withdrawal by the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable.


 


(d)       With
respect to the Whole Loans, if amounts required to pay the expenses allocable to any related Companion Loan exceed amounts on deposit
in the Whole Loan


 






    -156- 


     


    

 


Collection Account, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee,
as applicable, may seek reimbursement from the Trust Fund with respect to such expenses allocable to such Companion Loan. The Master
Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall seek (on behalf of the Trust Fund, subject to the related Intercreditor Agreement)
payment or reimbursement from the holder of the related Subordinate Companion Loan, if any, and then for the pro rata portion
of such expenses allocable to a related Pari Passu Companion Loan from the related Companion Loan Noteholder or, if such Companion
Loan has been deposited into a securitization, out of general collections in the collection account established pursuant to the
related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


(e)      If
any Loss of Value Payments are deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to any Mortgage Loan or any related REO
Property, then the Special Servicer shall (provided that, (1) with respect to clause (iv) below, the Special Servicer shall
have provided notice to the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such liquidation event and (2) with respect to clause (v)
below, the Certificate Administrator shall have provided the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with five Business Days’
prior notice of such final Distribution Date), transfer such Loss of Value Payments (up to the remaining portion thereof) from
the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account for the following purposes:


 


(i)       to
reimburse the Master Servicer or the Trustee, in accordance with Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement, for any Nonrecoverable
Advance made by such party with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (together with the Advance Interest Amount);


 


(ii)      to
pay, in accordance with Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement, or to reimburse the Trust for the prior payment of, any
expense relating to such Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property that constitutes or, if not paid out of such Loss of Value Payments,
would constitute an Additional Trust Fund Expense;


 


(iii)     to
offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable to such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as the case may be (as
calculated without regard to the application of such Loss of Value Payments), incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any
related successor REO Loan;


 


(iv)      following
the occurrence of a liquidation event with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property and any related transfers
from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to the items contemplated by the immediately preceding clauses (i)-(iii)
as to such Mortgage Loan, to cover the items contemplated by the immediately preceding clauses (i)-(iii) in respect of any
other Mortgage Loan or REO Loan; and


 


(v)       On
the final Distribution Date after all distributions have been made as set forth in clauses (i)-(iv) above, to the Mortgage
Loan Seller, its pro rata share, based on the amount that it contributed, net of any amount contributed by such Mortgage
Loan Seller that was used pursuant to clauses (i)-(iii) to offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable
to such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, Additional Trust


 






    -157- 


     


    

 


Fund Expenses or any Nonrecoverable Advances incurred with respect
to the Mortgage Loan related to such contribution.


 


Any Loss of Value Payments
transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clauses (i)-(iii) of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation
Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or any successor REO Loan with respect thereto for which
such Loss of Value Payments were received; and any Loss of Value Payments transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clause (iv)
of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the Mortgage Loan or REO Loan
for which such Loss of Value Payments are being transferred to the Collection Account to cover an item contemplated by clauses (i)-(iv)
of the prior paragraph.


 


(f)       The
Certificate Administrator may, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Lower-Tier Distribution Account for any of the following
purposes (the order set forth below shall not indicate any order of priority), in each case to the extent not previously paid from
the Collection Account:


 


(i)       to
make deposits of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and the amount of any Prepayment Premium and Yield Maintenance Charges distributable
pursuant to Section 4.01(a) of this Agreement in the Upper-Tier Distribution Account, and to make distributions on
the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LTR Interest pursuant to Section 4.01(a) of this Agreement;


 


(ii)       to
pay itself, the Trustee and the Custodian respective portions of any accrued but unpaid Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fees;

pursuant to Section 3.07(b) of this Agreement;


 


(iv)       to
pay to itself, the Trustee, the Custodian or any of their directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents, as the case
may be, any amounts payable or reimbursable to any such Person pursuant to Section 8.05(b), Section 8.05(c)
and Section 8.05(d) of this Agreement;


 


(v)       to
recoup any amounts deposited in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account in error; and


 


(vi)       to
clear and terminate the Lower-Tier Distribution Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01
of this Agreement.


 


(g)       The
Certificate Administrator may make withdrawals from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account for any of the following purposes:


 


(i)       to
make distributions to Certificateholders on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 9.01

    -158- 


     


    

 


(ii)       to
recoup any amounts deposited in the Upper-Tier Distribution Account in error; and


 


(iii)       to
clear and terminate the Upper-Tier Distribution Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01
of this Agreement.


 


Section 3.07       Investment
of Funds in the Collection Accounts, the Whole Loan Collection Accounts, the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve
Account, the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, the REO Account, the Lock-Box Accounts, the Cash Collateral Accounts and the
Reserve Accounts. (a)  The Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account, and any Whole Loan
Collection Account and any Borrower Accounts (as defined below and subject to the second succeeding sentence)), the Special
Servicer (with respect to any REO Account and any Loss of Value Reserve Fund) and the Certificate Administrator (with respect
to the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account and the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account) may direct any depository
institution maintaining the Collection Account, any Whole Loan Collection Account, the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, any
Borrower Accounts, any REO Account, any Loss of Value Reserve Fund, the Interest Reserve Account and the Distribution
Accounts (each such account, for purposes of this Section 3.07, an “Investment Account”), to
invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments that bear interest or are sold at a
discount, and that mature, unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day preceding the date on which such funds
are required to be withdrawn from such Investment Account pursuant to this Agreement. Any investment of funds on deposit in
an Investment Account by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be documented in
writing and shall provide evidence that such investment is a Permitted Investment which matures at or prior to the time
required hereby or is payable on demand. In the case of any Escrow Account, Lock-Box Account, Cash Collateral Account or
Reserve Account (the “Borrower Accounts”), the Master Servicer shall act upon the written request of
the related Borrower or Manager to the extent that the Master Servicer is required to do so under the terms of the respective
Loan Documents, provided that in the absence of appropriate written instructions from the related Borrower or Manager
meeting the requirements of this Section 3.07, the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to, but will be
entitled to, direct the investment of funds in such accounts in Permitted Investments. All such Permitted Investments shall
be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of
the Trustee (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee. The Certificate Administrator shall have
sole control (except with respect to investment direction which shall be in the control of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, with respect to any REO Accounts, as an independent contractor to the Trust Fund) over each 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


 






    -159- 


     


    

 


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 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, the
Distribution Accounts, the Certificate Administrator, shall deposit from its own funds into the Collection Account, applicable
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, 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.


 






    -160- 


     


    

 


(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 Mortgage Loan and
any related Companion Loans (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 Mortgage Loans and any related 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 Whole Loan, as applicable, and (ii) the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or 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 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 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;


 






    -161- 


     


    

 


(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 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 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 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.


 


Subject to Section 3.15(b)
of this Agreement, with respect to each 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, REO
Loan or the


 






    -162- 


     


    

 


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 Whole
Loan, the related 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 Whole Loan, the related 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 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 Whole Loans, in the applicable 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 Mortgage
Loan and any related 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 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 Companion Loan Noteholders, be added to the Stated Principal Balance of the related
Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or 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 Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan. Any costs incurred by the Master Servicer
in maintaining any such 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 REO Properties shall
be an expense of the Trust Fund (and in the case of any 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 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


 






    -163- 


     


    

 


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 Mortgage Loans and any related Companion Loans or 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 “A3” by Moody’s and “A-” by Fitch, 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 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 Mortgage Loan or 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 Whole Loan, in the related 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 Whole Loan, as applicable (or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the
deductible 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 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 Mortgage
Loan or REO Property to be covered by such “force-placed” insurance policy, the incremental costs of such insurance
applicable to such Mortgaged Property or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such
policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid as a Servicing Advance.


 






    -164- 


     


    

 


(c)       With
respect to each Mortgage Loan and any related 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 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 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 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 “A2” by Moody’s
and “A-” by Fitch, 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.


 


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 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


 






    -165- 


     


    

 


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 “A2” by Moody’s and “A-” by Fitch, 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 Mortgage Loan or Whole 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 Mortgage Loan or Whole 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 Mortgage Loan or Whole 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 Mortgage Loan or Whole 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, to the extent such action is not a Major Decision) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially
Serviced 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 Mortgage Loan or 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 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 Excluded Loan, upon consultation
with the Directing Holder 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 Companion Loan Securities, if any.


 


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


 






    -166- 


     


    

 


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


 


Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Excluded 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 Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance” clause, which by its terms:


 


(i)       provides
that such Mortgage Loan or Whole 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,


 






    -167- 


     


    

 


then, the Master Servicer (with
respect to Performing Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced 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 Mortgage Loan or 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 Excluded Loan, upon consultation with the Directing
Holder 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 Companion Loan Securities, if any.


 


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


 


Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Excluded 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


 






    -168- 


     


    

 


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 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 Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgage Note,
other than pursuant to Section 3.26 hereof, as applicable.


 


(g)       With
respect to any Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loans and 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 Mortgage Loan or Whole 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


 






    -169- 


     


    

 


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 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 the Rating Agency.


 


(iv)       To
the extent not inconsistent with such Mortgage Loan or 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 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.


 


(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 Provisions; provided that to the extent not inconsistent
with the Mortgage Loan or 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 Companion Loan Noteholders,
and the Certificate Administrator shall apply payments of principal and interest received on the government obligations to the
Collection Account (or Whole Loan Collection Account) in respect of the defeased Mortgage Loan or 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.


 






    -170- 


     


    

 


(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) Contemporaneously with the earliest of (i) the 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 Whole Loan or any other term of a Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, (B) extension of the Maturity Date or extended Maturity
Date of a Mortgage Loan or 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 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 Appraisal, the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an Updated Appraisal (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 Appraisal
pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to any Mortgaged Property for which there exists an Appraisal or
Updated Appraisal 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 or Updated
Appraisal. For so long as such Mortgage Loan or 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


 






    -171- 


     


    

 


extension with respect to the same Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan. Subject to any required consent
from the Directing Holder and the Operating Advisor 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 Updated Appraisal
for so long as an Appraisal Reduction Event exists with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan and the Master Servicer
shall recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount based on such 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 Appraisals
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 Companion
Loan Noteholder (if any) 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 such other actions (including without limitation,
negotiating and accepting a discounted payoff of a Mortgage Loan or 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 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, Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion
Loan Noteholders, constituted a single lender) (and with respect to any 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


 






    -172- 


     


    

 


applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and
Companion Loan Noteholders, as applicable, constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Whole Loan with a related Subordinate
Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such 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 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 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 Companion Loan Noteholders. Notwithstanding any such acquisition of title and cancellation of the related
Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, shall (except for purposes of Section 9.01
of this Agreement) be considered to be a REO Loan until such time as the related 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 Whole Loan, as applicable, shall be considered to be an outstanding Mortgage Loan or 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,


 






    -173- 


     


    

 


in payment of the accrued interest that remained unpaid on the date that the related 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 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 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 Companion Loan, as applicable.


 


(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 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,


 






    -174- 


     


    

 


the Trustee,
for the Trust Fund, the Certificateholders or 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 best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to the Whole Loans, the Companion Loan
Noteholders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a
single lender (and with respect to any Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate
nature of such 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 Whole Loan, the Companion Loan holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable,
Companion Loan holders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any 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 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


 






    -175- 


     


    

 


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 Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer, the related
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 Agreement), monthly regarding any actions taken by the
Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or defaulted 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 Whole Loans, the Companion Loan Noteholders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion
Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking
into account the subordinate nature of such 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 Whole Loans, the Companion Loan Noteholders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders
and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any Whole Loan with a related Subordinate
Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such 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 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 Whole Loans, the Companion Loan Noteholders), as a collective whole
as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any
Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion
Loan), but only if the Certificate Administrator has mailed notice to the Holders of the Regular Certificates and the related 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 entitled to a
majority of the Voting Rights and, with respect to Whole Loans, the applicable 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


 






    -176- 


     


    

 


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 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 Whole Loan, at the direction of the Certificateholders and the related Companion
Loan Noteholders unless the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Companion Loan, the 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 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 Mortgage Loan and any related 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 Appraisal 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 Whole Loans, first, from the applicable
Whole Loan Collection Account and second, to the extent amounts in the 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 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 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 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


 






    -177- 


     


    

 


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.


 


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 Whole Loan into a 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 Whole Loan Collection Account, as applicable, have been so deposited, or that such
Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan has become a 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.


 


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.


 


Section 3.12       Servicing
Fees, Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fees and Special Servicing Compensation.  (a) As compensation for its activities hereunder,
the Master Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan. The Master Servicer’s
rights to the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Master
Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement or as provided in the second succeeding paragraph with
respect to the Excess Servicing Fee.


 


In addition, the Master
Servicer shall be entitled to receive, as additional Servicing Compensation, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law and
the related Loan Documents and any related Intercreditor Agreement, (i) all investment income earned on amounts on deposit
in the Collection Account (and with respect to each Whole Loan, the related Whole Loan Collection Account) and certain Reserve

    -178- 


     


    

 


related Loan Documents); (ii) 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 Performing Loan (and the related

(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 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 Mortgage
Loans (and any related Companion Loan) that are non-Specially Serviced Loans that do not involve a Major Decision, 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 any related Companion Loan) that are non-Specially Serviced Loans that involve one or more Major Decisions (whether
or not processed by the Special Servicer), 100% 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 Mortgage Loans (and any
related Companion Loan) that do not involve a Major Decision, 50% of Assumption Fees with respect to Mortgage Loans (and any related
Companion Loan) that involve one or more Major Decisions (whether or not processed by the Special Servicer), 100% of beneficiary
statement charges or demand fees to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands are prepared by the Master Servicer (but
not including Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges), 100% of assumption application fees with respect to Mortgage Loans

or not the consent of the Special Servicer is required), and 0% of assumption application fees with respect to Specially Serviced
Loans, in each case to the extent received and not required to be deposited or retained in the Collection Account (or 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), 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.


 


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


 






    -179- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 Initial Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,
the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor 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


 






    -180- 


     


    

 


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 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 REO Loan to the Special Servicing Compensation, which shall be payable from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or
the 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 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 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 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 Companion
Loans) that are non-Specially Serviced Loans that involve one or more Major Decisions (whether or not processed by the Special
Servicer); (iv) 100% of Assumption Fees on any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan; (v) 50% of Assumption Fees with respect to
Mortgage Loans (and any related Companion Loan) that involve one or more 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


 






    -181- 


     


    

 


assumption application
fees received with respect to Mortgage Loans (and any related 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 or demand fees to the extent such beneficiary statements
or demands 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.


 


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.


 


(c)       In
addition, a Workout Fee will be payable to the Special Servicer with respect to each Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan
that ceases to be a Specially Serviced Loan pursuant to the definition thereof. As to each such Mortgage Loan or 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 Whole Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Mortgage
Loan. The Workout Fee with respect to any such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan will cease to be payable if such loan again becomes
a Specially Serviced Loan or if the related Mortgaged Property becomes a REO Property; provided that a new Workout Fee will
become payable if and when such Mortgage Loan or 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


 






    -182- 


     


    

 


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, and (iii) any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property as to which the Special Servicer recovered
any Liquidation Proceeds. 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 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, Whole Loan or 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, Whole Loan or REO Loan, only the
Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees paid to such Special Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Whole Loan or REO Loan shall
be taken into account, and any Workout Fees or Liquidation Fees for any other Mortgage Loans, Whole Loans or REO Loans shall not
be taken into account (and any


 






    -183- 


     


    

 


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 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 Whole Loan is involved, the applicable 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 Whole Loan and any purchaser of any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Property) in connection with the disposition,
workout or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan or 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 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 Companion Loan Service
Provider for any debt service advance made by such party with respect to any related 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 Whole Loan previously paid to the Master Servicer, the Trustee or to any 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 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 been entitled to receive during such period with respect
to such Mortgage Loan without any such application.


 


(e)       The
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement from the
Trust Fund (and, prior to recovery


 






    -184- 


     


    

 


from the Trust Fund, in the case of any Whole Loans, subject to the related Intercreditor 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 Whole Loan with a Pari Passu Companion Loan, first, out of the related Whole Loan Collection Account from
collections on the related 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 or the Trustee, the cost of which would not be an expense of the Trust Fund or any Companion Loan Noteholder
hereunder, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor 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 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 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 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.

and Management of REO Properties and REO Accounts.  (a) If title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired for the benefit of Certificateholders

upon abandonment or reclamation from bankruptcy, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Trust where
permitted by applicable law or regulation and consistent with customary servicing procedures, and otherwise in the name of the
Trustee, or its nominee (which shall not include the Master Servicer), or a separate Trustee or co-Trustee, on


 






    -200- 


     


    

 


behalf of the Trust Fund (and, in the case of the Whole Loans, the
related Companion Loan Noteholders), or in the name of a limited liability company wholly owned by the Trust and which is managed
by the Special Servicer and formed to hold title to the REO Property. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund (and, in
the case of the Whole Loans, the related Companion Loan Noteholders), shall dispose of any REO Property prior to the close of the
third calendar year following the year in which the Trust Fund acquires ownership of such 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 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 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 REO Property for an additional specified period will not cause such 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 Whole Loans, the related Companion Loan Noteholders), shall dispose
of any REO Property held by the Trust Fund prior to the last day of such period (taking into account extensions) by which such
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 REO Property for the Certificateholders (and, in the case of the Whole Loans, the related Companion Loan Noteholders)
solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such 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 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 Whole Loans, the related 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


 






    -201- 


     


    

 


with respect to such 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 Whole Loans, the related Companion Loan Noteholders) than an alternative method of operation or rental of such 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 REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and
general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to any REO Property a segregated custodial account (each, an “REO
Account”), each of which shall be an Eligible Account and shall be entitled in either (A) ”AEGON USA Realty
Advisors, LLC, as Special Servicer, on behalf of Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders
of COMM 2018-HOME Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-HOME REO Account” or (B) in
the name of the limited liability company wholly owned by the Trust and which is managed by the Special Servicer and formed to
hold title to the REO Property. With respect to a REO Property securing a Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall establish an REO
Account solely with respect to such property (each such account, a “Whole Loan REO Account”), each of which
shall be an Eligible Account and shall be entitled in either (A) ”AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as Special Servicer,
on behalf of Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of COMM 2018-HOME Mortgage Trust
Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-HOME and the related Companion Loan Noteholders REO Account,”
to be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Loan Noteholders or (B) in the name of the
limited liability company wholly owned by the Trust and which is managed by the Special Servicer and formed to hold title to the
REO Property. 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 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 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 REO Property and for other Property Protection Expenses
with respect to such REO Property, including:


 


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


 


(ii)       all
real estate taxes and assessments in respect of any 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 REO Property including,
if applicable, the payments of any ground rents in respect of such REO Property; and


 


(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 Whole Loan, such expenses shall be allocated pro rata to the Mortgage Loan and any


 






    -202- 


     


    

 


related Companion
Loans based on each loan’s Stated Principal Balance and only to the extent any such 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 Whole Loan REO Account, as applicable, and remit to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection
Account or the applicable 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 REO Property, except that in determining the
amount of such Net REO Proceeds, the Special Servicer may retain in each REO Account or 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 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


 


(iv)       Directly
Operate or allow any Person to Directly Operate any 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;


 






    -203- 


     


    

 


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 Whole Loan with a 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 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 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 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 REO Property other than through an Independent
Contractor shall not cause such 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 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 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 Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders, with respect to the
operation and management of any such 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 REO Property.


 


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 REO Property on behalf of the Trust Fund, the Special Servicer shall
notify the Master Servicer


 






    -204- 


     


    

 


thereof, and, upon delivery of such notice, the Special Servicer shall obtain an Updated Appraisal thereof,
but only if any Updated Appraisal 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 Appraisal, in order to determine the fair market value of such REO Property and shall notify the Depositor and
the Master Servicer and with respect to a Whole Loan, the holder of the related Companion Loan, if any, and of the results of such
Updated Appraisal. 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 Sequential Pay Certificates (in the same manner as Realized
Losses as set forth in Section 4.01(e) of this Agreement). In the case of any 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 Appraisal or a letter update every 9 months thereafter until the 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 REO Property in accordance with Sections 3.15(a)
and 3.15(b) of this Agreement.


 


(e)       Upon
the disposition of any 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 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 Mortgage Loan and any related 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 Whole Loan, the Certificateholders and the related Pari Passu Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective
whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect
to any Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion
Loan) to attempt to sell a Defaulted Loan and any related 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 Pari
Passu Companion Loan Noteholders in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price. 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.


 






    -205- 


     


    

 


The Special Servicer
shall give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and (other than in respect of
any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder 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 Whole
Loan, as the case may be, that has been selected with reasonable care by the 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


 






    -206- 


     


    

 


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 Whole Loan, shall be construed and calculated as if the
loans in such 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 Whole Loan, the related 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 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 Whole Loan, the applicable 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 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 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 REO Property on behalf of the Certificateholders and,
in the case of a Whole Loan, the related


 






    -207- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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 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 and the Directing Holder, not
less than ten Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any 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 REO Property pursuant to this Agreement.


 


(h)       Whether
any cash offer constitutes a fair price for any 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 Interested Person represents a fair price for any such 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 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 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 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 REO Property, the state of the local economy and the obligation to dispose
of any 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 REO Property related to a Whole Loan, shall be construed and calculated as if the loans
in such Whole Loan together constitute a single Mortgage Loan thereunder) for any 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


 






    -208- 


     


    

 


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 Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders) in negotiating and taking any other action necessary
or appropriate in connection with the sale of any 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 Whole Loan,
the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account. Any sale of a 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 Companion Loan Noteholder with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special
Servicer or the Trustee.


 


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


 


(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
Excluded Loan or unless a Consultation Termination Event exists), and, in the case of a Whole Loan or an REO Property related to
a 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 Whole Loan or an REO Property related
to a Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable,
Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender and with respect to any 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 Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such
Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender) (and with respect to any 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 Companion Loan, the Special Servicer (i) shall sell such defaulted Companion Loan, and (ii) may sell
the related Subordinate Companion Loan, with the consent of the related Directing Holder, together with the related Mortgage Loan
pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement as if such


 






    -209- 


     


    

 


Mortgage Loan and Companion Loans were
one whole loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the related 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 Companion Loan. With respect
to Whole Loans, the Special Servicer shall be required to obtain the consent of any holder of a related Companion Loan prior to
a sale of such 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 Companion Loans: (A) at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior
written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the related 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 Whole Loan, and any documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by the holders of the applicable Companion
Loans that are material to the sale price of such 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 and the Directing Holder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information
and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Special Servicer
in connection with the proposed sale. The holders of the Companion Loans (or, in any case, their respective representatives) shall
be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of such related Whole Loan; however, the related Borrower and its agents and Affiliates
shall not be permitted to submit an offer at such sale.


 


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 REO Properties, the Special Servicer) shall inspect or cause to be inspected each
Mortgaged Property securing a 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 the Rating Agency shall have provided a Rating Agency Confirmation relating to the
Certificates and 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 Whole Loan, the costs described in the preceding sentence above that relate to the applicable Whole Loan shall
be paid out of amounts on deposit in the


 






    -210- 


     


    

 


Whole Loan Collection
Account related to such Whole Loan (allocated in accordance with the expense allocation provision of the related Intercreditor
Agreement). If funds in the applicable Whole Loan Collection Account relating to a 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 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 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 Initial Purchaser 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 Mortgage Loan and any related 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 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 Pari Passu Companion Loan to the holder of the Companion Loan on each Master Servicer
Remittance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor.


 


(d)       The
Master Servicer shall, as to each Mortgage Loan and any related 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 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 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 Whole Loan


 






    -211- 


     


    

 


prior to an event of default or reasonably
foreseeable event of default with respect to such Mortgage Loan or 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 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
Agent, which shall be acceptable to the Depositor, and shall mail notice of such appointment to all Certificateholders. Any successor
Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and responsibilities
of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating

one or more additional Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files on behalf of the Trustee and otherwise perform

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

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 Mortgage Loans and any related 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 Whole Loan, notwithstanding
that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or 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 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 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 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


 






    -213- 


     


    

 


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
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 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 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


 






    -214- 


     


    

 


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 (and, in the case of any 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 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.


 






    -215- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 Mortgage Loan and any related 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 Companion Loans, the related Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders
and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and with respect to any 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 Companion Loan, the related 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 Whole Loan is involved, from amounts in the applicable 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 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 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


 






    -216- 


     


    

 


Administrator) that
making such expenditure is in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, in the case of a Whole Loan, the related Companion
Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted
a single lender (and with respect to any 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.


 


With respect to any Whole
Loan, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, determines that a proposed Servicing Advance with
respect to such 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) AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC 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 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 and the Trustee; provided that, with respect to any 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 Whole Loan shall be subject to the limitations set forth in 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


 






    -217- 


     


    

 


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 to
its recommendation) and recommending a replacement special servicer; provided, that in no event shall the information or
any other content included in such written recommendation contravene any provision of this Agreement. In such event, the Certificate
Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such recommendation and the related report on the Certificate
Administrator’s Website, and by mail (or through the DTC system, as applicable), and shall conduct the solicitation of votes
of all Certificates in such regard, which requisite affirmative votes must be received within one hundred eighty (180) days of
the posting of such notice, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio. Upon (i) the written
direction of Holders of Sequential Pay Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a quorum of Certificateholders (which, for
this purpose, is the Holders of Certificates that (A) evidence at least 20% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application
of any Realized Losses and Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the respective Certificate Balances) of all Sequential
Pay Certificates on an aggregate basis and (B) consist of at least three Certificateholders or Certificate Owners that are
not Risk Retention Affiliated with each other) and (ii) receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with
respect to the Certificates and, if such successor Special Servicer shall also specially service a Whole Loan, any class of related
Companion Loan Securities, by the Trustee following satisfaction of the foregoing clause (i), the Trustee (upon receipt of
written confirmation from the Certificate Administrator, if the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee are different entities)
shall (x) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint such successor
Special Servicer; provided such termination is subject to the terminated Special Servicer’s rights to indemnification,
payment of outstanding fees and other compensation, reimbursement of advances and other rights set forth in this Agreement which
survive termination and (y) promptly notify such outgoing Special Servicer of the effective date of such termination. The
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with administering such vote shall be an Additional Trust Fund Expense.
If the Trustee does not receive the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the quorum described in clause (i) of the preceding
sentence within 180 days of after the notice is posted to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, then the Trustee shall
not remove the Special Servicer. Prior to the appointment of any replacement special servicer, such replacement special servicer
shall have agreed to succeed to the obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and to act as the Special Servicer’s
successor hereunder. In the event the Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 3.22(c), the Directing
Holder may not subsequently reappoint such terminated Special Servicer or any Risk Retention Affiliate thereof. No penalty or fee
shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer with respect to any termination pursuant to this Section 3.22(c).


 


(d)       If
a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and upon (a) the written direction of holders of Sequential Pay
Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Appraisal Reduction
Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the Sequential Pay Certificates pursuant to Section 4.08 of
this Agreement) of the Sequential Pay Certificates requesting a vote to replace the Special Servicer with a new special servicer
designated in such written direction, (b) payment by such holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees
and expenses (including


 






    -218- 


     


    

 


any legal fees and expenses and the Rating Agency fees and expenses) to be incurred by the Certificate
Administrator in connection with administering such vote and (c) delivery by such holders to the Certificate Administrator
and the Trustee of a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency and a comparable confirmation from each NRSRO that has been
engaged to rate any securities backed, in whole or in part, by a Pari Passu Companion Loan with respect to the Certificates and,
if such successor Special Servicer shall also specially service a Whole Loan, any related Companion Loan Securities, the Certificate
Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders of such request by posting such notice on the Certificate
Administrator’s Website, and by mail (or through the DTC system, as applicable), and conduct the solicitation of votes of
all Certificates in such regard. Subsequently, if a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, upon the written
direction of (i) holders of Sequential Pay Certificates evidencing at least 50% of a Certificateholder Quorum of Certificates
or (ii) holders of Sequential Pay Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate Voting Rights of each Class of Non-Reduced
Certificates on an aggregate basis, the Trustee shall (x) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer
under this Agreement and appoint the successor Special Servicer designated by such Certificateholders, provided such termination
is subject to the terminated Special Servicer’s rights to indemnification, payment of outstanding fees and other compensation,
reimbursement of advances and other rights set forth in this Agreement which survive termination and (y) promptly notify such
outgoing Special Servicer of the effective date of such termination; provided that if such written direction is not provided
within 180 days of the notice from the Certificate Administrator of the request for a vote to terminate and replace the Special
Servicer, then such written direction shall have no force and effect. The reasonable fees and out-of-pocket costs associated with
administering such vote shall be an Additional Trust Fund Expense. The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution
Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder and Certificate Owner may access notices on the Certificate Administrator’s
Website and each Certificateholder and Certificate Owner may register to receive email notifications when such notices are posted
on the Certificate Administrator’s Website; provided that the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement
from the requesting Certificateholders for the reasonable expenses of posting such notices. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Certificateholders’ direction to replace a special servicer shall not apply to a Whole Loan with a Subordinate Companion
Loan unless a The Gateway Note B Control Appraisal Period or a TriBeCa House Control Appraisal Period, as applicable, has occurred
and is continuing with respect to such Whole Loan under the related Intercreditor Agreement. The related Subordinate Companion
Loan Noteholder shall have the right, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a The Gateway Note C Control Appraisal Period
(with respect to The Gateway Note C Holder), a The Gateway Note B Control Appraisal Period (with respect to The Gateway Note B
Holder), or a TriBeCa House Control Appraisal Period, as applicable, to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to such
Whole Loan.


 


(e)       The
Trustee shall, promptly after receiving any removal notice pursuant to Section 3.22(b) of this Agreement or direction
to terminate pursuant to Section 3.22(c) or Section 3.22(d) of this Agreement, so notify the Certificate
Administrator, the related 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). The termination
of the Special Servicer and appointment of a successor Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.22 shall not be
effective until (i) the Trustee receives from the Rating Agency a Rating Agency Confirmation and, if such successor Special
Servicer shall also


 






    -219- 


     


    

 


specially service a Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, (ii) the successor special
servicer has assumed all of its responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder pursuant to a writing reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee, (iii) receipt by the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (x) the designation of such

(i)       No
penalty or fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer with respect to any termination pursuant to this Section 3.22.
All costs and expenses of any such termination made without cause shall be paid by the Controlling Class Certificateholders.


 


(j)       Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.22, with respect to any Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan,
if any, the Special Servicer shall resign with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan.


 


In the event the Special
Servicer is required to resign as Special Servicer with respect to any Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan because it obtains
knowledge that it is a Borrower Party prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, then (i) if
the Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan is not also an Excluded Loan, then the Controlling Class Representative shall
appoint (and replace with or without cause) the Excluded Special Servicer, as successor to the resigning Special Servicer, in accordance
with this Agreement for the Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan, (ii) if the Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan is also

Mortgage Loan, and (iii) if there is no Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not an Excluded Controlling Class Certificateholder,
then the resigning Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to appoint the Excluded Special Servicer for the Excluded Special

is no Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, then the resigning Special
Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to appoint the Excluded Special Servicer for the Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan.
The Special Servicer shall not have any liability with respect to the actions or inactions of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer
or with respect to the identity of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer.


 


If at any time the Special
Servicer that had acted as the Special Servicer for an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan prior to it becoming an Excluded
Special Servicer Mortgage Loan is no longer a Borrower Party (including, without limitation, as a result of the related Mortgaged
Property becoming REO Property) with respect to an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan, (1) the related Excluded Special Servicer
shall resign, (2) the related Mortgage Loan shall no longer be an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan, (3) such Special Servicer
shall become the Special Servicer again for such related Mortgage Loan and (4) such original Special Servicer shall be entitled
to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Mortgage Loan earned during such time on and after such Mortgage Loan
is no longer an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan.


 


The Excluded Special
Servicer shall perform all of the obligations of the Special Servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan and
will be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan earned during
such time as the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage

Loan (provided that the Special Servicer shall
remain entitled to all other special servicing compensation with respect all Mortgage Loans and Whole Loans that are not Excluded
Special Servicer Mortgage Loans during such time).


 


If a Servicing Officer
or Special Servicing Officer, as applicable, of the Master Servicer, a related Excluded Special Servicer, or the Special Servicer,
as applicable, has actual knowledge that a Mortgage Loan is no longer an Excluded Loan, an Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage
Loan or an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer, the related Excluded Special Servicer or
Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide prompt written notice thereof to each of the other parties to this Agreement.


 


(k)       No
removal or replacement of the Special Servicer as contemplated by this Agreement shall become effective until (i) a successor Special
Servicer shall have assumed the resigning or terminated Special Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations
hereunder and (ii) 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.

in accordance with the Servicing Standard to comply with the preceding sentence within five Business Days of the date it has notice
of the occurrence of any event specified in the definition of Specially Serviced Loan and in any event shall continue to act as
Master Servicer and administrator of such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing
of such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, which shall occur upon the receipt by the Special Servicer of the information, documents
and records referred to in the preceding sentence. With respect to each Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced
Loan, the Master Servicer shall instruct the related Borrower to continue to remit all payments in respect of such Mortgage Loan
or Whole Loan to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall forward any notices it would otherwise send to the Borrower of
a Specially Serviced Loan to the Special Servicer, who shall send such notice to the related Borrower.


 


Upon determining that
a Specially Serviced Loan has become a Corrected Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall immediately give notice thereof to the
Master Servicer, and upon giving such notice, such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan shall cease to be a Specially Serviced Loan in accordance
with the first proviso of the definition of Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Mortgage
Loan or Whole Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and administer such

Mortgage Loan or Whole
Loan as a Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan that is a Performing Loan shall resume.


 


(b)       In
servicing any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall provide to the Custodian originals of documents included within
the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the related Mortgage File (to the extent such documents are in the
possession of the Special Servicer) and copies of any additional related Mortgage Loan information, including correspondence with
the related Borrower, and the Special Servicer shall promptly provide copies of all of the foregoing to the Master Servicer as
well as copies of any analysis or internal review prepared by or for the benefit of the Special Servicer.


 


(c)       Not
later than two Business Days preceding each date on which the Master Servicer is required to furnish a report under Section 3.13(a)
of this Agreement to the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator, with a

(it being understood and agreed that to the extent this information is provided in accordance with Section 3.13(g)
of this Agreement, this Section 3.23(c) shall be deemed to be satisfied) and (ii) such additional information
relating to the Specially Serviced Loans as the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee reasonably request,
to enable it to perform its duties under this Agreement. Such statement and information shall be furnished to the Master Servicer
in writing and/or in such electronic media as is acceptable to the Master Servicer.


 


(d)       Notwithstanding
the provisions of the preceding Section 3.23(c), the Master Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect
to each of the Specially Serviced Loans relating to a Mortgage Loan that it is servicing and shall provide the Special Servicer
and the Operating Advisor with any information reasonably required by the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor to perform
its duties under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer with any information reasonably required
by the Master Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement.


 


(e)       No
later than 30 days after a Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan (the “Initial Delivery Date”),
the Special Servicer shall deliver a report (the “Asset Status Report”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or
Whole Loan and the related Mortgaged Property. Subsequent to the issuance of a Final Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer
shall prepare one or more additional Asset Status Reports with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan (each such report a “Subsequent
Asset Status Report”) to the extent that during the course of the resolution of such Specially Serviced Loan changes
in the strategy reflected in the initial Final Asset Status Report (or subsequent Final Asset Status Reports) are necessary to
reflect the then current circumstances and recommendation as to how the Specially Serviced

Loan might be returned to performing
status or otherwise liquidated in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Special Servicer shall deliver each Asset Status
Report to the Master Servicer, the Directing Holder (but (i) only if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is
continuing and (ii) not with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan), with respect to any related Companion Loan, to the extent
the related Companion Loan has been included in a securitization transaction, to the master servicer of such securitization into
which the related Companion Loan has been sold or to the holder of the related Companion Loan, the Operating Advisor (but, other
than with respect to an Excluded Loan applicable to the Directing Holder, only if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred
and is continuing), the Controlling Class Representative (so long as such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan), the 17g-5
Information Provider (who shall promptly post such report to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d)
of this Agreement), each related Companion Loan Noteholder, and upon request, the Initial Purchaser; provided, the Special
Servicer shall not be required to deliver an Asset Status Report to the Directing Holder if the Special Servicer and the Directing
Holder are the same entity. A summary of each Asset Status Report shall be provided to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee.

(ii)       a
discussion of the legal and environmental considerations reasonably known to the Special Servicer, consistent with the Servicing
Standard, that are applicable to the exercise of remedies as aforesaid and to the enforcement of any related guaranties or other
collateral for the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan and whether outside legal counsel has been retained;


 


(iii)       the
most current rent roll and income or operating statement available for the related Mortgaged Property;


 


(iv)       (A) the
Special Servicer’s recommendations on how such Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status (including
the modification of a monetary term, and any workout, restructure or debt forgiveness) and returned to the Master Servicer for
regular servicing or foreclosed or otherwise realized upon (including any proposed sale of a Defaulted Loan or REO Property), (B) a
description of any such proposed or taken actions, and (C) the alternative courses of action that were or are being considered
by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed or taken actions;


 


(v)       the

(vii)       the
decision that the Special Servicer made, or intends or proposes to make, including a narrative analysis setting forth the Special
Servicer’s rationale for its proposed decision, including its rejection of the alternatives;


 


(viii)       an
analysis of whether or not taking such proposed action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis
than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the
net present value calculation (including the applicable Calculation Rate used) and all related assumptions;


 


(ix)       the
appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property (and a copy of the last obtained Appraisal of such Mortgaged Property) together
with a description of any adjustments to the valuation of such Mortgaged Property made by the Special Servicer together with an
explanation of those adjustments; and


 


(x)       such
other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the Servicing Standard.


 


With respect to any Mortgage
Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, if within
10 Business Days of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Directing Holder does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing,
the Directing Holder will be deemed to have approved such Asset Status Report and the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended
action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, that such Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary
to applicable law, this Agreement, the Servicing Standard (taking into consideration the best interests of all the Certificateholders
and, with respect to any Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders
and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender) (and with respect to any Whole Loan with a related
Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)), the terms of the applicable
Loan Documents or any related Intercreditor Agreement. For so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing,
if the Directing Holder disapproves such Asset Status Report within such 10 Business Day period, the Special Servicer will revise
such Asset Status Report and deliver to the Directing Holder, the Master Servicer, the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly
post such report to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.14(d) of this Agreement) and
each related Companion Loan Noteholder, a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days after
such disapproval. The Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above in this Section 3.23(e)
until the Directing Holder fails to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within 10 Business Days of receiving
such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination consistent with the Servicing Standard, that
such objection is not in the best interests of all the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Whole Loan, the related Companion
Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted
a single lender and with respect to any 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, the Special Servicer shall


 






    -226- 


     


    

 


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 Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders
(as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender
(and with respect to any 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 Whole Loan is involved,
the related 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 Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders (as
a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender (and
with respect to any 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 an Excluded 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 “Excluded 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 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.


 






    -227- 


     


    

 


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 an Excluded 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 an Excluded
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 an
Excluded 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 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
Excluded 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 Excluded Loan), and after the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Operating Advisor Consultation Event (or with respect to an Excluded 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 time with respect
to any applicable Excluded 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


 






    -228- 


     


    

 


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.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
with respect to The Gateway Whole Loan and the TriBeCa House Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a The Gateway
Note B Control Appraisal Period or a TriBeCa House Control Appraisal Period, as applicable, The Gateway Directing Holder or the
TriBeCa House Directing Holder, as applicable, rather than the Controlling Class Representative, will have certain approval rights
over any related Asset Status Report.


 


In addition, with respect
to a 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, or the Operating Advisor 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, 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 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 Whole Loan, such expense shall be allocated in accordance with the allocation provisions of the related Intercreditor
Agreement).


 






    -229- 


     


    

 


(b)       The
Master Servicer shall send written notice to each Borrower and the related Manager and clearing bank relating to a 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 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 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(d) of this Agreement) and, (1) in the case of a Pari Passu Whole Loan with a 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 Companion Loan Noteholders to the Trust Fund pursuant to the
related Intercreditor Agreement (but in the case of any 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 Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, to the extent not inconsistent with the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, neither
the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall consent to a change of the property manager with respect to a Mortgaged Property
serviced hereunder unless the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, obtains a Rating Agency Confirmation relating
to the Certificates and 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 Trustee, the 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


 






    -230- 


     


    

 


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 Excluded Loan) and the Operating Advisor, on a monthly
basis, the performance of any Mortgage Loan or 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 Major
Decisions, the Master Servicer, (ii) with respect to clauses (1)(a)(iii)(A) and (1)(a)(iii)(B) of the definition of “Major
Decision” with respect to any Performing Loan, the Master Servicer (subject to the consent (or deemed consent) of the Special
Servicer as provided in Section 3.26(m)), or (iii) with respect to (A) any Specially Serviced Loan and (B) Major
Decisions irrespective of whether the related Mortgage Loan is a Performing Loan (other than with respect to clauses (1)(a)(iii)(A)
and (1)(a)(iii)(B) of the definition of “Major Decision,” which the Master Servicer will process with respect to any
Performing Loan (subject to the consent (or deemed consent) of the Special Servicer as provided in Section 3.26(m)), the
Special Servicer, in each case subject to (x) the rights of the Directing Holder and (y) with respect to a 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),
may modify, waive, amend, consent or take such other action with respect to any term of any Mortgage Loan and any related 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 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 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


 






    -231- 


     


    

 


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 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 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, 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, 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 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 Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan
Noteholder (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and (with respect to a Whole Loan) Companion Loan Noteholder constituted
a single lender (and with respect to any Whole Loan with a related Subordinate Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate
nature of such Subordinate Companion Loan)) and, if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, with the consent
of the Directing Holder.


 


(c)       Neither
the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit any Borrower to add or substitute any collateral for an outstanding Mortgage
Loan and any related 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 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, Companion Loan
Noteholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, notwithstanding that the terms
of such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan or such modification, waiver or amendment so permit.


 


(e)       Except
for waivers of Penalty Charges and waivers of notice periods, all material modifications, waivers and amendments of the Mortgage
Loans or Whole Loans in


 






    -232- 


     


    

 


accordance with this Section 3.26 or Section 3.27 of this Agreement (with respect
to Whole Loans) shall be in writing.


 


(f)       The
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, 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 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 Mortgage Loan and
any related 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 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 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 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 Agency) for any Mortgaged Property
pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan and any related 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 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 Whole Loan pursuant to Treasury


 






    -233- 


     


    

 


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.


 


(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 Property into the Collection Account or, if a Whole Loan is involved, the Whole Loan Collection
Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Mortgage Loan or 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 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 Whole Loan is involved, the 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 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 Whole Loan that is a Specially Serviced
Loan or REO Loan (i) shall be performed by the Special Servicer and not the Master Servicer, (ii) to the extent


 






    -234- 


     


    

 


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 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, the Master Servicer, prior to taking action with respect to any Major Decision (or
making a determination not to take action with respect to a 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; provided, however that, with respect to a Performing
Loan, the Master Servicer shall (subject to the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer) process any request listed in
clause (1)(a)(iii)(A) or (B) of the definition of “Major Decision”. 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 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 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 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 Major Decision together with such other information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer and in the possession
of 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.


 






    -235- 


     


    

 


(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 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 “Companion Loan Noteholder Register”) on which the Master Servicer
shall record the names and addresses of the Companion Loan Noteholders and wire transfer instructions for such Companion Loan Noteholders
from time to time, to the extent such information is provided in writing to the Master Servicer by a Companion Loan Noteholder.
Each 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 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 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 Companion Loan Noteholder hereunder other than the Person
listed as the applicable Companion Loan Noteholder on the Companion Loan Noteholder Register. In the event that a Companion Loan
Noteholder transfers the related Companion Loan without notice to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall have no liability
whatsoever for any misdirected payment on such 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 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 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 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.


 






    -236- 


     


    





 


(d)         With
respect to any 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 Companion Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan or has become a 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 Whole Loan related to any Companion Loan or any related 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 anything herein to the contrary, the following considerations shall apply
with respect to the servicing of a Companion Loan:


 


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


 


(ii)         the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each consult with and obtain the consent of the related 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 Companion Loan Noteholder any reports or notices required
to be delivered to such 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 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 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 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 Companion Loan Noteholder
or any of its


 



    -237- 


     


    

 


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 Companion Loan Noteholder under the related Intercreditor Agreement. Each of the
rights of a 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 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 Companion Loan Noteholder 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 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 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 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 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 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 each 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


 



    -238- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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 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 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 and the Controlling Class Representative; Certain Rights and Powers of the Directing
Holder. (a) Each


 



    -239- 


     


    

 


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
Trustee, each 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.


 


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


 



    -240- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 Prima Capital Advisors LLC. The Certificate Registrar
shall be entitled to assume that Prima Capital Advisors LLC, 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


 



    -241- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 and Operating Advisor 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 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 Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. 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


 



    -242- 


     


    

 


(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 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 and the Trustee shall be entitled to assume
that Prima Capital Advisors LLC 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.


 


(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


 



    -243- 


     


    

 


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 and Operating Advisor. 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 and Operating Advisor, 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 Excluded Loan as to either
the Directing Holder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class. In the case of a Excluded Loan relating to the Controlling
Class Representative, in respect of the servicing of any such Excluded Loan, a Control Termination Event and Consultation Termination
Event will be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Excluded 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 the 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


 



    -244- 


     


    

 


confirm (through direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5
Information Provider’s Website) that the 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 Agency 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)(A) the applicable replacement
master servicer or special servicer has been appointed as a master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, on a transaction
level basis on the closing date of a commercial mortgage loan securitization and, as of the date of such determination, is the
master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, of such securitization, with respect to which Moody’s rated one or more
classes of certificates and one or more classes of such certificates are still outstanding and rated by Moody’s and (B) Moody’s
has not cited servicing concerns of the applicable replacement 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 rated by Moody’s in a commercial mortgage backed securitization transaction serviced by the applicable master
servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if Moody’s is the non-responding Rating Agency, or 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 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.


 






    -245- 


     


    

 


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 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.


 


(d)         Notwithstanding
the terms of the related Loan Documents, the other provisions of this Agreement or the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, with
respect to any Companion Loan as to which there exists 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 Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such
action from each related Companion Loan Rating Agency. Each 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 Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to any
Companion Loan Securities


 



    -246- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 Companion Loan Rating Agency may reasonably request in connection with such 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 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


 



    -247- 


     


    

 


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 report, 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 Specially Serviced 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 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 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; 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 Excluded Special Servicer and any Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s) serviced by
such Excluded 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


 



    -248- 


     


    

 


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 or 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 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


 



    -249- 


     


    

 


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. In addition, with
respect to the Operating 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 the Directing Holder (with respect to any Mortgage
Loan other than any applicable Excluded Loan and for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) 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


 



    -250- 


     


    

 


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
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 owed to it in accordance with the Servicing
Standard (taking into account whether or not such fees are provided for in the related loan agreement), 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


 



    -251- 


     


    

 


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 Excluded Information to the Certificate Administrator.


 


(a)         Any
Excluded 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 “Excluded
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 Excluded 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 “Excluded Information” section, as provided under Section 4.02(b). When so posted, Excluded
Controlling Class Holders shall be prohibited from the access of Excluded Information with respect to any Excluded 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 Excluded 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 Excluded Information in accordance with this Section 3.32 until such party has received
notice with respect to the related Excluded 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 Excluded Information relating to any Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan with respect to
which the Directing Holder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder is not a Borrower Party and, if such Excluded 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 Excluded 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     Resignation
Upon Prohibited Risk Retention Affiliation. Under the
Risk Retention Rule, any Third-Party Purchaser is prohibited from being Risk Retention Affiliated with, among other persons,
the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor. As long as the prohibition exists,
upon the occurrence of (i) a 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


 



    -252- 


     


    

 


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, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the 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 obtaining actual knowledge that it is or has become a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third-Party Purchaser or any other
party to this Agreement (in such case, an “Impermissible Operating Advisor Affiliate”; and either of an Impermissible
TPP Affiliate and an Impermissible Operating Advisor Affiliate being an “Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate”),
such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate shall be required to promptly notify the Retaining Sponsor and the other parties to
this Agreement and resign in accordance with Section 6.04 or Section 8.07, as applicable. The resigning
Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate will be required to bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each other party
to this Agreement, the Issuing Entity and the Rating Agency in connection with such resignation as and to the extent required under
this Agreement; 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.


 


Article IV



DISTRIBUTIONS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS


 


Section 4.01     Distributions.
(a) On each Distribution Date, amounts held in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account shall be withdrawn (to the extent of
the Available Funds, including or reduced by, to the extent required by Section 3.05(e) of this Agreement, the
Withheld Amounts, plus any amount withdrawn from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account pursuant to Section 3.05(i) of
this Agreement) in the case of all Classes of Lower-Tier Regular Interests (such amount, the “Lower-Tier
Distribution Amount”). On each Distribution Date, distributions in respect of principal shall be deemed to have
been made on each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests in an amount equal to the amount of principal actually distributed on
its respective Corresponding Certificates as provided in Section 4.01(b) of this Agreement. As of any date, the
principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the Lower-Tier Principal Balance thereof. On each
Distribution Date, distributions of interest made in respect of any Class of Regular Certificates on each Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 4.01(b), Section 4.01(c), or Section 9.01 of this Agreement shall be
deemed to have first been distributed from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of its Corresponding
Lower-Tier Regular Interest set forth in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement.


 


All distributions of
reimbursements of Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses made in respect of any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates
on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01 of this Agreement shall be deemed to have first been distributed from
the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of its Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest set forth in the Preliminary
Statement to this Agreement; provided, that distributions of reimbursements of Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund
Expenses shall be made in sequential order of the priority set forth in Section 4.01(b) and Section 4.01(c)
for


 



    -253- 


     


    

 


principal distributions, up to the amount of Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses previously allocated to a particular
Lower-Tier Regular Interest corresponding to such Class of Certificates.


 


On each Distribution
Date, the Certificate Administrator shall apply amounts related to each Prepayment Premium and Yield Maintenance Charge then on
deposit in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account and received during or prior to the related Collection Period to the Lower-Tier
Regular Interests in proportion to the amount of principal deemed distributed to each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests on
such Distribution Date pursuant to this Section 4.01(a).


 


The Certificate Administrator
shall be deemed to deposit the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and the amount of any Prepayment Premiums and any Yield Maintenance
Charges distributed to the Upper-Tier REMIC pursuant to this Section 4.01(a) into the Upper-Tier Distribution Account.
Any amount in respect of the Mortgage Pool that remains in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account on each Distribution Date after
the deemed distribution described in the preceding sentence shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates
with respect to the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class LTR Interest) (but only to the extent of such amount
for such Distribution Date remaining in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account, if any).


 


(b)         On
each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Upper-Tier Distribution Account the amounts deposited
in the Upper-Tier Distribution Account to the extent of Available Funds in respect of such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(a)
of this Agreement, and distribute such amount to the Holders of the Certificates in the amounts and in the order of priority set
forth below:


 


(i)          First,
to the Class A, in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the aggregate Interest Distribution Amount of such Class;


 


(ii)         Second,
to the Class A Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution
Amount for such Distribution Date, until the Certificate Balance of such Class is reduced to zero;


 


(iii)        Third,
to the Class A Certificates, up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to
such Class of Certificates;


 


(iv)        Fourth,
to the Class B Certificates in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the aggregate Interest Distribution Amount of
such Class;


 


(v)         Fifth,
to the Class B Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution
Amount less amounts of Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all prior clauses, until the Certificate Balance of
such Class is reduced to zero;


 


(vi)        Sixth,
to the Class B Certificates, up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to
such Class;


 






    -254- 


     


    

 


(vii)       Seventh,
to the Class C Certificates in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the aggregate Interest Distribution Amount of
such Class;


 


(viii)      Eighth,
to the Class C Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution
Amount less amounts of Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all prior clauses, until the Certificate Balance of
such Class C is reduced to zero;


 


(ix)        Ninth,
to the Class C Certificates, up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to
such Class;


 


(x)         Tenth,
to the Class D Certificates in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the aggregate Interest Distribution Amount of
such Class;


 


(xi)        Eleventh,
to the Class D Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution
Amount less amounts of Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all prior clauses, until the Certificate Balance of
such Class is reduced to zero;


 


(xii)       Twelfth,
to the Class D Certificates, up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to
such Class;


 


(xiii)      Thirteenth,
to the Class HRR Certificates in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the aggregate Interest Distribution Amount
of such Class;


 


(xiv)      Fourteenth,
to the Class HRR Certificates in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution
Amount less the amount of the Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all prior clauses, until the Certificate Balance
of such Class is reduced to zero;


 


(xv)       Fifteenth,
to the Class HRR Certificates, up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated
to such Class; and


 


(xvi)      Sixteenth,
to the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class UTR Interest), any amounts remaining in the Upper-Tier Distribution
Account.


 


(c)         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 shall be distributed to the Class A, Class B, Class C,
Class D, and Class HRR Certificates in an amount equal to, in the case of each such Class, the product of (1) 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


 



    -255- 


     


    

 


as principal to the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D and
Class HRR Certificates on such Distribution Date, (2) the Base Interest Fraction for the related Principal Repayment and such
Class of Certificates and (3) the amount of such Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges collected on such Principal
Prepayment during the related Collection Period.


 


(d)         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 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 amount of the applicable insufficiency.


 


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 Additional Trust Fund Expenses
from time to time; and (B) are allocable to the 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 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 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 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 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 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
receiving such distributions.


 


(e)         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 for such Distribution Date. Any allocation
of Realized Losses to any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate Balance thereof by the
amount so allocated. The allocation of Realized Losses shall constitute allocations of losses and other shortfalls experienced
by the Trust Fund.


 






    -256- 


     


    

 


The Certificate Balances
of each Class of Sequential Pay 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 Sequential Pay Certificates in the following order, in each case until the Certificate Balance of such Class
is reduced to zero: first, to the Class HRR Certificates; second, to the Class D Certificates; third,
to the Class C Certificates; fourth, to the Class B Certificates and finally, to the Class A Certificates.


 


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.


 


Distributions in reimbursement
of Realized Losses previously allocated to the respective Classes of the Sequential Pay Certificates shall be made in the amounts
and manner specified in Section 4.01(b). 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. Reimbursement of previously allocated Realized Losses will not constitute distributions
of principal for any purpose and will not result in an additional reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Class of Certificates
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): the amount of such recovery
will be added to the Certificate Balance of the Classes of Sequential Pay 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 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 Sequential Pay Certificates had never been written down.
To the extent that the Certificate Balance of, and/or any interest payable on, any Class of Regular Certificates 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 any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates (or the Lower-Tier Principal
Balance of any Lower-Tier Regular Interest) is so increased, the amount of unreimbursed Realized Losses of such Class of Sequential
Pay Certificates (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 so decreased shall be deemed not to exist.


 


With respect to any Distribution
Date, any Realized Losses allocated pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Distribution Date shall reduce the Lower-Tier
Principal


 



    -257- 


     


    

 


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.


 


(f)          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.


 


(g)         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(g) 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, 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


 



    -258- 


     


    

 


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(g). 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.


 


(h)         The
Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any, for each Distribution Date will be allocated (and Compensating Interest Payments
shall be deemed distributed) among the various Classes of Certificates and 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.


 


(i)          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 Seller, 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.

the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively assume that the Controlling Class Representative

Certificate Administrator shall be liable for any communication to the Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder
or disclosure of Excluded 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 an Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage
Loan (including, in the case of a summary of an Asset Status Report or Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Certificate Administrator

the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely on (i) any
written notice from the Controlling Class Representative or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that it is no longer
an Excluded Controlling Class Holder and (ii) any certification delivered by the Controlling Class Representative or
a Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, substantially in the form of Exhibit L1-B that such Person is

receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any Excluded Information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise
receives access to such Excluded 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 Excluded Controlling
Class Mortgage Loan to the related Borrower or to any Excluded Controlling Class Holder or (A) any employees or personnel

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 and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above.

Information.


 


The Certificate Administrator
shall have no liability for access by an Excluded Controlling Class Holder to the Certificate Administrator’s Website

Advisor (collectively, “Inquiries”), and (ii) Privileged Persons
may view Inquiries that have been previously submitted and answered, together with the answers thereto. Upon receipt of an Inquiry

period following receipt thereof. Following receipt of an Inquiry, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, unless it determines not to answer such Inquiry as provided below, shall reply
to the Inquiry, which reply of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall be sent by email to the Certificate
Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall post (within a commercially reasonable period following preparation or receipt
of such answer, as the case may be) such Inquiry and the related answer to the Investor Q&A Forum. If the Certificate Administrator,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) any
Inquiry is beyond the scope outlined above, (ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or
the Certificateholders, (iii) answering any Inquiry would be in violation of applicable law, this Agreement or the applicable
Loan Documents, (iv) answering any Inquiry would materially increase the duties of, or result in significant additional cost
or expense to, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable,
(v) answering such inquiry would require the disclosure of Privileged Information (subject to the Privileged Information Exception),

the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall not post such Inquiry on the Investor Q&A Forum. In
addition, no party shall post or otherwise disclose information known to such party to be Privileged Information as part of its
response to any Inquiry. The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Person who submitted such Inquiry if the Inquiry will not
be answered. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to post to the Investor Q&A Forum any Inquiry or answer thereto
that the Certificate Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, is administrative or ministerial in nature. The Investor
Q&A Forum will not reflect questions, answers and other communications between the Certificate Administrator or other Person
which are not submitted via the Investor Q&A Forum. In addition, no party is permitted to post or otherwise disclose direct
communication with the Directing Holder as part of its response to any questions.


 


(d)         The
Certificate Administrator shall make available to any Certificateholder and Certificate Owner, the Investor Registry. The “Investor
Registry” shall be a voluntary service available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, where Certificateholders
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


 



    -269- 


     


    

 


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 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


 



    -270- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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


 



    -271- 


     


    

 


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.


 


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.


 


(j)          Upon
request and delivery by CREFC® of a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit L-3 hereto (which
may be a “click-through” confirmation), the Certificate Administrator shall make available to CREFC®,
with respect to any Distribution Date, the related Distribution Date Statement and CREFC® IRP, to the extent it
has received or prepared such report or file.


 


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


 



    -272- 


     


    

 


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, 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 Holder of the largest
Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates shall be the tax matters person and “partnership representative”
within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code (to the extent such provision is applicable to the Trust REMICs) of each Trust REMIC.
If more than one Holder shall hold an equal Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates larger than that held by any other
Holder, the first such Holder to have acquired such Class R Certificates shall be such tax matters person and “partnership
representative”. The Certificate Administrator shall act as attorney-in-fact and agent for the tax matters person and “partnership
representative” of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, and each Holder of a Percentage Interest in the Class R
Certificates, by acceptance hereof, is deemed to have consented to the Certificate Administrator’s appointment in such capacities
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.


 






    -273- 


     


    

 


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, (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


 



    -274- 


     


    

 


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
acting as agent for any tax matters person or other representative of a REMIC that can be designated under 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 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 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 REO Property in determining Net REO Proceeds with respect to the 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 Whole
Loan, from amounts in the 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 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 Available Funds as provided in Section 3.06(a)(xii) or, in the case of any 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 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 Whole Loan with a Pari Passu Companion Loan, on a pro rata basis as
between the related Mortgage Loan and any related 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


 



    -275- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 Available
Funds for such Distribution Date; and


 


(iii)        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
Whole Loan Collection Account for future distribution to Certificateholders in subsequent months in discharge of any such obligation


 



    -276- 


     


    

 


to make P&I Advances; provided, that such amounts in the applicable 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 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 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 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 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) 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


 



    -277- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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 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 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 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


 



    -279- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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
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 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 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 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 proceeds minus (i) any portion thereof payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating
Advisor, 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


 



    -280- 


     


    

 


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 Whole Loan that has a 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 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 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 Companion Loan, that any proposed advance of principal and/or
interest with respect to such 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.


 


(f)          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 Pari Passu Companion Loan related to any Whole
Loan, if any.


 


(g)         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


 



    -281- 


     


    

 


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) The Appraisal Reduction Amounts allocated to the Mortgage Loans will be
allocated to each Class of Sequential Pay 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 HRR Certificates; second, to the Class D Certificates, third, to the Class C
Certificates, fourth, to the Class B Certificates, and fifth, to the Class A Certificates.


 


As of the first Determination
Date following a 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. 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. 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 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 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 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, 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


 



    -282- 


     


    

 


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 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 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.


 






    -283- 


     


    

 


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, the Special Servicer shall 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, 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 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 Updated Appraisal,
as applicable, and any letter updates, as of the date of each such subsequent 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 Companion Loan has been included in a securitization
transaction, to the master servicer of such securitization into which the related Companion Loan has been sold, or to the holder
of any related Companion Loan by the Master Servicer.


 


Article V

Section 5.01     The
Certificates. (a) The Certificates consist of the Class A Certificates, the Class B Certificates, the

the Class R Certificates) will be issuable in registered form only, in minimum denominations of authorized Certificate Balance
as described in the succeeding table, and multiples of $l in excess thereof (or


 



    -284- 


     


    

 


such lesser amount if the Certificate Balance is
not a multiple of $1). With respect to any Certificate or any beneficial interest in a Certificate, the “Denomination”
thereof shall be (i) the amount (A) set forth on the face thereof or (B) in the case of any Global Certificate,
set forth on a schedule attached thereto or, in the case of any beneficial interest in a Global Certificate, the amount set forth
on the books and records of the related Depository Participant or indirect participating brokerage firm, as applicable, (ii) expressed
in terms of Certificate Balance, and (iii) be in an authorized denomination, as set forth below:


 


	Class	 	 	Minimum

	HRR 	 	 	$	100,000.00	 	 	$	21,573,000	 





 


Each Certificate will

The 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.


 


The Global Certificates
shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as Individual Certificates authenticated and delivered
hereunder.


 


The Retained Certificates
shall each be issuable in one or more Individual Certificates at all times during the Transfer Restriction Period.


 


(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


 



    -285- 


     


    

 


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 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 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


 



    -286- 


     


    

 


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)         Reserved.


 


(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-32 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 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 Individual 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. During the Transfer Restriction Period, the Certificate Administrator
shall hold the Retained Certificate in safekeeping and shall release the same only upon receipt of written instructions from the
holder of the Retained Certificates and with the Retaining Sponsor’s consent (subject to Error! Reference source not
found.), and in accordance with any authentication procedures as may be utilized by the Certificate Administrator and in
accordance with this Agreement. 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

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 individual
Participants holding beneficial interests in the Trust Fund through the Depository. The Person in whose name any Certificate

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

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

(b)          Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Individual Certificate, subject to the requirements of Sections 5.02(c),

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)

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


 


(B)       The

to take delivery in the form of an Individual Certificate will require the transferee to take delivery 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 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 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 Global Certificate for an Individual Certificate, as provided herein, the Certificate
Registrar shall endorse on the schedule affixed to the related Global Certificate (or on a continuation of such


 



    -293- 


     


    

 


schedule affixed
to such 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 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 Global Certificate
shall bear the Securities Legend.


 


(iv)          Transfers
of Individual Certificates to the 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,

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.

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 Global Certificate, other than the initial transfer from the Initial Purchaser to an
initial investor.


 






    -294- 


     


    



 


(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 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


 



    -295- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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 Article V regarding transfer and exchange, transfers of the Global Certificates shall be limited
to transfers of such Global 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 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.
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 Certificate 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


 



    -296- 


     


    

 


Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar are obligated to register or qualify the 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 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 R Certificate (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”)

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. 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 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. None of the Certificate Administrator or
the Certificate Registrar shall register a Class R Certificate in any Person’s name unless such Person has provided the letter
referred to in 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. Any transfer of a Restricted Certificate that would violate these provisions shall be deemed
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”),

Transaction Parties, and the Plan Fiduciary either: (a) is a bank as defined in Section 202 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940

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

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 following provisions and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest are expressly
subject to the following provisions:


 


(i)        Each
Person acquiring or holding any Ownership Interest shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall not acquire or hold such Ownership
Interest as agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) on behalf of any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee.
Any such Person shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change in its status (or the status
of the beneficial owner of such Ownership Interest) as a Permitted Transferee. Any acquisition described in the first sentence
of this Section 5.02(l) by a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee or by a Person who is acting as an agent of a
Person who is not a Permitted Transferee shall be void and of no effect, and the immediately preceding owner who was a Permitted
Transferee shall be restored to registered and beneficial ownership of the Ownership Interest as fully as possible.

(ii)       No
Ownership Interest may be Transferred, and no such Transfer shall be registered in the Certificate Register, without the express
written consent of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not recognize the Transfer, and such proposed
Transfer shall not be effective, without such consent with respect thereto. In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership
Interest, the Certificate Registrar shall, as a condition to such consent, (x) require delivery to it in form and substance
satisfactory to it, and the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar and to the proposed transferor an affidavit
in substantially the form attached as Exhibit C-1 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) of the proposed transferee
(A) that such proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee and (B) stating that (i) the proposed transferee historically
has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (ii) the proposed transferee understands that,
as the holder of an Ownership Interest, it may incur liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (iii) the
proposed transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Ownership Interest as they become due, (iv) the proposed
transferee will not transfer the Ownership Interest to any Person that does not provide a Transferee Affidavit or as to which the
proposed transferee has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker,
nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, (v) the proposed transferee will not cause income
from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of
an applicable income tax treaty, of the proposed transferee or any other U.S. Person and (vi) the proposed transferee expressly
agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of this Section 5.02(l) and (y) other than in connection
with the initial issuance of the Class R Certificates, require a statement from the proposed transferor substantially in the
form attached as Exhibit C-2 (the “Transferor Letter”), that the proposed transferor has no actual
knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed
transferee’s statements in the Transferee Affidavit are false.


 


(iii)      Notwithstanding
the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed transferee under clause (ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate
Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer to 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
Transferee.


 


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 of any Certificate (including, without limitation, the Securities Legend), or any interest therein, other than to
require delivery of the certification(s) and/or opinions of counsel described in Article V applicable with respect
to changes in registration of record ownership of Certificates in the Certificate Register. The Certificate Administrator and the
Certificate Registrar shall have no liability for transfers, including transfers made through the book-entry facilities of the
Depository or between or among Depository Participants or Certificate Owners made in violation of applicable restrictions.


 






    -299- 


     


    

 


Upon written notice to
the Certificate Registrar, or upon the Certificate Registrar having actual knowledge, that there has occurred a Transfer to any
Person that is a Disqualified Organization or an agent thereof (including a broker, nominee, or middleman) in contravention of
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 during the Transfer Restriction Period, if a transfer of any Retained Certificate is to be made (other than in connection
with the initial issuance of a Retained Certificate), then the following documents shall be provided to the Certificate Administrator
who shall facilitate such transfer in conjunction with the Certificate Registrar and 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, 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, which such certification must be countersigned
by the Retaining Sponsor with a medallion stamp guarantee of the Retaining Sponsor, (iii) an IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8 completed
by the prospective transferee and (iv) wire 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,
if a transfer of the Retained Certificates is to be made, the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register and transfer a Retained
Certificate unless it receives (and upon receipt may conclusively rely upon) certificates substantially in the forms of Exhibit
C-3 and Exhibit C-4 hereto; provided, that following the expiration of the Transfer Restriction Period, the countersignature
of the Retaining Sponsor to such certifications shall not be required. Any transfer of an interest in the Retained Certificates
that is 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


 



    -300- 


     


    

 


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

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

(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.


 


Any Certificateholder
or Certificate Owner wishing to communicate with other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners regarding the exercise of its
rights under the terms of this Agreement (such party, a “Requesting Investor”) may deliver a written request

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.


 


(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.


 






    -303-

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. 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.

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 from a merger,
consolidation or succession that is permitted under Section 6.02 of this Agreement, (B) shall be acceptable to
the Rating Agency as confirmed in a Rating Agency Confirmation delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator relating
to the Certificates and 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 Agency
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
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


 



    -308- 


     


    

 


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 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, and (ii) (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. 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 Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Controlling
Class Representative, 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 the 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 Initial Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Rating Agency, 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


 



    -309- 


     


    

 


(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 Whole Loan, to the extent such reimbursement is allocable to such 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 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


 



    -310- 


     


    

 


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 and the Operating Advisor. (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 Excluded Loan applicable to the Directing Holder), (2) the Special Servicer with respect to Performing Loans (other
than any Excluded Loan applicable to the Directing Holder) with respect to Major Decisions, and (3) the Master Servicer with
respect to Performing Loans (other than any Excluded Loan applicable to the Directing Holder) with respect to clause (1)(a)(iii)(A)
and (B) of the definition of “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 applicable Excluded Loan) or any 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
that are 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 in the possession of 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 Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan Noteholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders
and, if applicable, Companion Loan Noteholders constituted a single lender and with respect to any 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.


 






    -311- 


     


    

 


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.


 


(a)       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 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


 



    -312- 


     


    

 


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 Excluded 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 Excluded 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.


 


(b)       The
failure of the Directing Holder or the Operating Advisor 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 or the Operating Advisor on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or 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 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 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 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 or the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the related 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


 



    -313- 


     


    

 


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 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.


 


The Directing Holder
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; provided that the Directing Holder shall
not be protected against any liability to a Controlling Class Certificateholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason
of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations or
duties.


 


(c)       Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Section 6.07(d), (a) 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 Major Decision with respect to any Performing Loan unless the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer have 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; provided, however that,
with respect to any Performing Loan, the Master Servicer shall (subject to the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer)
process any request listed in clauses (1)(a)(iii)(A) or (B) of the definition of “Major Decision,” (c) the Master Servicer
shall process all requests for any matter that constitutes a Major Decision listed in clauses (1)(a)(iii)(A) or (B) of the definition
of “Major Decision,” with respect to any Performing Loan and any other Major Decision with respect to a Performing
Loan if the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer have 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, and (d) the Master Servicer will process all requests for any matter relating to any Performing Loan that is not a Major
Decision without any obligation to obtain the consent of or consult with any other Person. Upon receiving a request for any matter
that constitutes a Major Decision (other than with respect to the items in clauses (1)(a)(iii)(A) and (1)(a)(iii)(B) of the definition
of “Major Decision,” which the Master Servicer will process with respect to any Performing Loan (subject to the consent
(or deemed consent) of the Special Servicer as provided in Section 3.26(m)), unless the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer will 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, the Master Servicer shall
forward such request to the Special Servicer and the Special Servicer will be required to process such request and the Master Servicer
will have no further obligation with respect to such request or the related Major Decision.


 


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 or the Operating Advisor.


 


(d)       Notwithstanding
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


 



    -314- 


     


    

 


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
action to be taken or refrained from taking to the extent set forth herein; and (iii) subject to Section 3.13(f), if a Consultation
Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no consultation or consent rights
hereunder and no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, Voting Rights given to all Certificateholders
and rights to receive reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Controlling
Class Representative.


 


(e)       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 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 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.


 






    -315- 


     


    

 


Section 6.08     Rights
of Non-Directing Holders. With respect to each 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 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). 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.


 


Article VII



SERVICER AND OPERATING ADVISOR TERMINATION


 


Section 7.01     Servicer
Termination Events. (a) “Master Servicer Termination Event,” wherever used herein, means any one of the
following events:


 


(i)        any
failure by the Master Servicer (A) to make any deposit required to the Collection Account or the related Whole Loan Collection
Account for any Whole Loan on the day and by the time such deposit was first required to be made under the terms of this Agreement,
which failure is not remedied within one Business Day, (B) to deposit into, or remit to the Certificate Administrator for
deposit into, any Distribution Account any amount required to be so deposited or remitted (including, without limitation, any required


 



    -316- 


     


    

 


P&I Advance, unless the Master Servicer determines such P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance), which failure is not
remedied by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the relevant Distribution Date (provided, however, that to the
extent the Master Servicer does not timely make such remittance to the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer shall pay
the Certificate Administrator for the account of the Certificate Administrator interest on any amount not timely remitted at the
Prime Rate from and including the applicable required remittance date to, but not including, the date such remittance is actually
made), or (C) to remit to any holder of a Companion Loan, as and when required by this Agreement or any related Intercreditor
Agreement, any amount required to be so remitted (which failure continues for two Business Days);


 


(ii)       any
failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any of its other covenants or obligations
contained in this Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days (or 15 days in the case of the Master
Servicer’s failure to make a Servicing Advance or 45 days in the case of the Master Servicer’s 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
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 remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer, by (a) any other party hereto, with a copy
to each other party to this Agreement, (b) the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating
not less than 25% of such Class or (c) an affected Companion Loan Noteholder; provided, if such failure is capable
of being cured and the Master Servicer is diligently pursuing such cure, such 15-, 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 Master Servicer of any representation or warranty contained in Section 2.04(a) of this Agreement,
which materially and adversely affects the interests of any Class of Certificateholders or Companion Loan Noteholders and which
continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which notice of such breach, requiring the same to be remedied,
shall have been given (a) to the Master 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 Companion Loan Noteholder; provided, if such breach is capable 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


 



    -317- 


     


    

 


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
or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property;


 


(vi)      the
Master 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
suspend payment of its obligations or take any corporate action in furtherance of the foregoing;


 


(vii)     the
Master Servicer is no longer rated at least “CMS3” by Fitch and such Master Servicer is not reinstated to at least
that rating within 60 days of the delisting; or


 


(viii)   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 the
Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights of all Certificates 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 Companion Loan Noteholders of
such Master Servicer Termination Event and request whether such Certificateholders and, if applicable, 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 Companion Loans under this Agreement
from at least three (3) Persons qualified to act as Master Servicer


 



    -318- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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 Companion Loan serviced, the excess of the related Servicing Fee Rate minus the related Retained
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”), provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with a Servicing Released Bid, the Master Servicer
shall not be entitled to any rights to any fee based on the Retained Fee Rate. 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 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.


 






    -319- 


     


    

 


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 to service the Mortgage Loans and 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
Section 7.01(a).


 


(b)       “Special
Servicer Termination Event,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events:


 


(i)        any
failure by the Special Servicer to deposit into the REO Account at or within the time specified by this Agreement and such failure
continues unremedied for one Business Day, or any failure by the Special Servicer to remit to Master Servicer for deposit into,
the Collection Account (or, in the case of a Whole Loan, the related Whole Loan Collection Account) any amount 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
failure on the part of the Special Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any of its other covenants or obligations
contained in this Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days (or 45 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 remedied, shall have been given to the Special Servicer, by (a) any other
party hereto, with a copy to each other party to this Agreement, (b) the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 25% of such Class or (c) an affected Companion Loan Noteholder; provided, if such
failure is capable of being cured


 



    -320- 


     


    

 


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,
which materially and adversely affects the interests of any Class of Certificateholders or Companion Loan Noteholders and which
continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which notice of such breach, requiring the same to be 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 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
Special 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 Special Servicer
or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property;


 


(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
suspend payment of its obligations or take any corporate action in furtherance of the foregoing;


 


(vii)     the
Special Servicer is no longer rated at least “CSS3” by Fitch and such Special Servicer is not reinstated to at least
that rating within 60 days of the delisting; or


 


(viii)    any
failure by the Special Servicer to deliver (a) any Exchange Act reporting items required to be delivered by the Special 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 Special 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);


 






    -321- 


     


    

 


then, and in each and every such case,
so long as a Special 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) for so long as no Control Termination
Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Holder upon five (5) Business Days’ notice, shall, terminate all of the
rights and obligations of the Special Servicer (other than the rights to indemnification provided in Section 6.03(a)
of this Agreement and compensation provided in Section 3.12(c) of this Agreement). In 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 Companion Loan Noteholders of such Special Servicer Termination Event and request whether such Certificateholders and, if applicable,
the Companion Loan Noteholders favor such termination.


 


(c)       Notwithstanding
Section 7.01(a), (i) if any Master Servicer Termination Event occurs that affects a Companion Loan and the Master
Servicer is not otherwise terminated or (ii) if an NRSRO engaged to rate a Companion Loan Security qualifies, downgrades or
withdraws its rating of such Companion Loan Security or places one or more classes of such Companion Loan Securities on “watch
status” in contemplation of possible rating downgrade or withdrawal, in either case 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 Whole Loan, to appoint a new sub-servicer to service such 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 Whole Loan. The Master Servicer shall appoint a replacement
sub-servicer with respect to such 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 relating to the Certificates
and 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 Companion Loan and the Special
Servicer is not otherwise terminated or (ii) if an NRSRO engaged to rate a Companion Loan Security qualifies, downgrades or
withdraws its rating of such Companion Loan Security or places one or more classes of such Companion Loan Securities on “watch
status” in contemplation of possible rating downgrade or withdrawal, in either case 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
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


 



    -322- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 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


 



    -323- 


     


    

 


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 and (ii) 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.


 


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 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 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 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


 



    -324- 


     


    

 


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 Whole Loan, if an affected Companion Loan Noteholder so requests
in writing to the Trustee, or if the Trustee is not an “approved” servicer by the Rating Agency 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 Companion Loan Securities.
No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer hereunder shall be effective until the assumption by
such 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, 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. 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


 



    -325- 


     


    

 


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 and to each Companion Loan Noteholder at its address appearing in the Companion
Loan Noteholder Register.


 


(b)       Within
30 days after the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event or Operating Advisor 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 Companion Loan
Noteholder, notice of such Servicer Termination Event or Operating Advisor Termination Event, unless such Servicer Termination
Event or Operating Advisor 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 Companion Loan, of the related 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 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 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


 



    -326- 


     


    

 


payments from the Collection Account,
any 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.


 


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 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:

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


 



    -327-

Administrator with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that it has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such
cure;


 


(ii)       any

in writing to the Operating Advisor by any party to this Agreement;


 


(iii)      any

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;


 


(iv)     a
decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under

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,

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,


 



    -328- 


     


    

 


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.


 


(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


 



    -329- 


     


    

 


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 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 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 Companion Loan Noteholder, 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).

of their respective obligations to perform their duties as specifically set forth in this Agreement. The Trustee or the Certificate

of the Trustee only), the Trustee (in the case of the Certificate Administrator only), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor,

which includes as a component thereof the payment or distribution of interest for a stated period at a stated rate “to the
extent permitted by applicable law,” the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, shall assume that
such payment is so permitted unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be,
has actual knowledge, or receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Person asserting the impermissibility) to
the effect, that such payment is not permitted by applicable law. The Depositor is not obligated to monitor or supervise the performance
of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator under this Agreement or otherwise.


 


Section 8.04     Trustee
and Certificate Administrator May Own Certificates. The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and any agent of the Trustee
or the Certificate Administrator in its individual capacity or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates,

Initial Purchaser in banking transactions, with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Certificate Administrator
or such agent, as the case may be.

prior to the distribution of amounts to the Certificateholders, the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to withdraw and

the Trustee assumes the servicing responsibilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder pursuant to or otherwise
arising from the resignation or removal of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, the Trustee shall be entitled to the compensation
to which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would have been entitled (other than the rights of the
Special Servicer to receive any Workout Fee specified in Section 3.12(c) of this Agreement if the Special Servicer
is terminated).


 


(c)       The
Trustee, the Custodian and the Certificate Administrator shall be paid or reimbursed by the Trust Fund upon its request for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificate Administrator

and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ), which the Certificate Administrator will be 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 or the Upper-Tier REMIC, including, without limitation,
under Section 2.03, Section 3.10, the third paragraph of Section 3.11, Section 4.05
and Section 7.01 of this Agreement.

of the provisions of this Agreement (and including the reasonable fees and expenses and disbursements of its counsel and all other
persons not regularly in its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from the negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith of the Trustee.


 


(d)       Each
of the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Paying Agent, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer (each, for purposes of this Section 8.05(d), an “Indemnifying Party”) shall (severally
and not jointly) indemnify the Trustee (both in its capacity as Trustee and individually) and the Certificate Administrator (in
its


 



    -338- 


     


    

 


capacity as Certificate Administrator, Custodian, Paying Agent and individually) and each of their Affiliates and each of the
partners, shareholders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents of the Trustee and the Certificate
Administrator and each of their Affiliates (each, for purposes of this Section 8.05(d), an “Indemnified Party”),
and hold each of them harmless against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees
and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Indemnified Party may sustain in connection with
this Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in

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.


 


(e)       Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, this Section 8.05 shall survive the termination or maturity of this Agreement or the
resignation, removal or termination of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, regarding rights accrued
prior to such resignation, removal or termination and (with respect to any acts or omissions during its respective tenures) the
resignation, removal or termination of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Administrator,

legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Indemnified Party may sustain in connection
with this Agreement (including, without limitation reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party

to the extent caused by any such willful misconduct, bad faith, fraud or negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder
or by reason of negligent disregard referred to in clause (i) above by the Indemnifying Party.


 


(i)       Each

in the performance of its duties or by reason of negligent disregard of its obligations and duties, in each case, as set forth
under Section 5.01(j) and Section 5.02(m) of this Agreement.

and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate
Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Holder
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). Upon notice of resignation from the Trustee, the Depositor shall use its reasonable
best efforts to promptly appoint a successor trustee, the appointment of which is subject to the requirements contained in Section 8.06

Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or 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 (if different than
the Trustee) shall fail (other than by reason of the failure of either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to timely perform
its obligations hereunder or as a result of other circumstances beyond the Trustee’s or Certificate Administrator’s,
as applicable, reasonable control), to timely publish any report to be delivered, published or otherwise made available by the
Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 4.02 and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of five (5) days,
or if the Certificate Administrator fails to make distributions required pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 9.01,
then the Depositor or the Master Servicer may remove the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, and the
Depositor or the Master Servicer shall promptly appoint a successor by written instrument, which shall be


 



    -342-

or removed pursuant to this Section 8.07, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and in and to the
Mortgage Loans shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination or
removal (including the right to receive all fees, expenses, indemnities, and other amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement,
plus interest at the Reimbursement Rate on all 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 or removal).


 


If the Certificate Administrator
is terminated or removed pursuant to this Section 8.07, (i) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
and in and to the Mortgage Loans shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such
termination or removal (including the right to receive all fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts accrued 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
(but including, without limitation, its capacities as Certificate Registrar, 17g-5 Information Provider, Paying Agent and Authenticating
Agent).

assignment, or transfer of the Trustee or its business to a successor, or upon the termination of the Trustee, (a) the outgoing
Trustee, at its own expense without right to reimbursement therefor, shall (A) endorse the original executed Mortgage Note
for each Mortgage Loan (to the extent that the original executed Mortgage Note for each Mortgage Loan was endorsed to the outgoing
Trustee), without recourse, representation or warranty, express or implied, to the order of the successor, as trustee for the registered
holders of COMM 2018-HOME Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-HOME or in blank, and (B) in
the case of the other assignable Loan Documents (to the extent such other Loan Documents were assigned to the outgoing Trustee),

or implied) to the order of the successor trustee, as trustee for the registered holders of COMM 2018-HOME Mortgage Trust Commercial
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-HOME or in blank. If any assignable Loan Document (other than the Mortgage Note)

respect to the Loan Documents identified in clause (B) of the preceding sentence, the Custodian shall deliver such Loan
Document to the successor trustee and, if appropriate, such Loan Documents shall be recorded at the expense of the Trust (i) prior
to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, with the consent of the Controlling Class Representative,
(ii) after the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination
Event, after consultation with the Controlling Class Representative and the Operating Advisor and (iii) after the occurrence
of a Consultation Termination Event, after consultation with the Operating Advisor and the reasonable cooperation (as determined
by the Depositor) of the Depositor.

and deliver to the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, 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

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

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

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.


 


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


 



    -345- 


     


    

 


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.

Section 9.01     Termination.
(a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Operating
Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee created hereby 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 hereinafter set
forth) shall terminate upon payment (or provision for payment) to the Certificateholders and the 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
hereunder 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 this Agreement; (ii) the
exchange by the Sole Certificateholder of its Certificates for the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 9.01(g)
of this Agreement; and (iii) the later of (a) the receipt or collection of the last payment due on any Mortgage Loan
included in the Trust Fund, or (b) the liquidation and disposition pursuant to this Agreement of the last asset held by the

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.


 






    -346- 


     


    

 


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
of Section 860F(a)(4)(A) of the Code providing for the actions contemplated by the provisions hereof and pursuant to
which the 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 for the period ending with such termination,
and shall retain books and records with respect to such Trust REMICs 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;


 


(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


 



    -347- 


     


    

 


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).


 


(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


 






    -348- 


     


    

 


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, 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 Seller, the Operating
Advisor, the related 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


 



    -349- 


     


    

 


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.


 


(g)       Following
the date on which the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class A, Class B and Class C Certificates is reduced
to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the
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 Sequential Pay
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 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 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 Date to
the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian shall upon receipt of a Request for Release from the Master Servicer, release
to the Sole Certificateholder or any designee thereof, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all
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


 



    -350- 


     


    

 


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 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.


 


(h)       [Reserved.]


 


(i)        The
duties of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement will terminate, without cost or expense to the Operating Advisor, upon termination
of the Trust Fund.

of the Parties; Reasonableness. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Article X of this
Agreement is, among other things, to facilitate compliance by any Other Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and the
related rules and regulations of the Commission. Except as expressly required by Sections 10.07, 10.08 and 10.09,
the Depositor shall not, and no Other Depositor may, exercise its rights to request delivery of information or other performance
under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Act, the Exchange Act and the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The parties hereto 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 with reasonable requests made by the
Depositor, or any Other Depositor, in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of such evolving
interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection with the COMM 2018-HOME Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates,

the Certificate Administrator, any Other Depositor and any Other Exchange Act Reporting Party, as applicable, to deliver to the
Depositor or Other Depositor, as applicable (including any of its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications,
records and any other information in its possession or reasonably available to it and necessary in the reasonable good faith determination
of the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, any Other Depositor or any Other Exchange Act Reporting Party, as applicable,
to permit any Other Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Master

and any Sub-Servicer, or the servicing of the Whole Loans, reasonably believed by the Depositor or any Other Depositor, 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 or any Other Depositor, as applicable, to satisfy
any related filing requirements. For purposes of this Article X, to the extent any party has an obligation to exercise
commercially reasonable efforts to cause a third party to perform, such party hereunder shall not be required to bring any legal
action against such third party in connection with such obligation.

Section 10.02     Succession;
Sub-Servicers; Subcontractors. (a)  For so long as any Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements
of the Exchange Act (in addition to any requirements contained in Section 10.07 of this Agreement), in connection with
the succession to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer or any Sub-Servicer as servicer or sub-servicer (to the extent such
Sub-Servicer is a “servicer” meeting the criteria contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2) of Regulation AB) under this Agreement
by any Person (i) into which the Master Servicer and Special Servicer or such Sub-Servicer may be merged or consolidated,
or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer or any such Sub-Servicer, the Master
Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (depending on whether such succession involves it or one of its Sub-Servicers), shall
provide to any Other Depositor as to which the applicable Companion Loan is affected, at least five (5) Business Days prior
to the effective date of such succession or appointment as long as such disclosure prior to such effective date would not be violative
of any applicable law or confidentiality agreement, and otherwise no later than one (1) Business Day after such effective date
of succession, (x) written notice to the Depositor and each such Other Depositor of such succession or appointment and (y) in
writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each such Other Depositor, all information relating to such successor
servicer reasonably requested by any such Other Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of
Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).


 


(b)       For
so long as any Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, each of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, any Sub-Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Custodian (each of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Custodian and each Sub-Servicer, for purposes of this
Section 10.02(b) and Section 10.02(c), a “Servicing Party”) is permitted to utilize one or more
Subcontractors to perform certain of its obligations hereunder. Such Servicing Party shall promptly upon request provide to any
Other Depositor as to which the applicable Companion Loan is affected, a written description (in form and substance satisfactory
to each such Other Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor that is a Servicing Function Participant utilized
by such Servicing Party during the preceding calendar year, specifying (i) the identity of such Subcontractor, and (ii) which
elements of the Servicing Criteria will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each such Subcontractor. Each Servicing
Party shall cause any Subcontractor utilized by such Servicing Party that is determined to be a Servicing Function Participant
to comply with the provisions of Section 10.08 and Section 10.09 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such
Subcontractor were such Servicing Party. Such Servicing Party shall obtain from each such Subcontractor (or, in the case of each

deliver to the applicable Persons any assessment of compliance report and related accountant’s attestation required to be
delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 10.08 and Section 10.09 of this Agreement, in each case, as and when
required to be delivered.


 


(c)       For
so long as any Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, notwithstanding the foregoing,
if a Servicing Party engages a Subcontractor in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, such
Servicing Party shall be responsible for determining whether such Subcontractor is a


 



    -352- 


     


    

 


“servicer” within the meaning
of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and whether such Subcontractor meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation
AB. If a Servicing Party determines, pursuant to the preceding sentence, that such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within
the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB, then
such Subcontractor shall be deemed to be a Sub-Servicer for purposes of this Agreement, and the engagement of such Sub-Servicer
shall not be effective unless and until notice is given to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, as well as any Other
Depositor as to which the applicable Companion Loan is affected, of any such Sub-Servicer and Sub-Servicing Agreement. No Sub-Servicing
Agreement (other than such agreements relating to a Sub-Servicer set forth in Exhibit Y) shall be effective until five
(5) Business Days after such written notice is received by the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and each such Other Depositor.
Such notice shall contain all information reasonably necessary, and in such form as may be necessary, to enable each Other Exchange
Act Reporting Party as to which the applicable Companion Loan is affected, to accurately and timely report the event under Item

may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator,
the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall notify the Depositor and each Other Depositor, at least ten (10)
Business Days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or if such prior notice would be violative of applicable
law or any applicable confidentiality agreement, no later than the time required under Section 10.06 of this Agreement)
and shall furnish pursuant to Section 10.06 of this Agreement to each Other Depositor in writing and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and each Other Depositor, all information reasonably necessary for each Other Exchange
Act Reporting Party to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the related Other Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or otherwise (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).


 


Section 10.03     Other
Securitization’s Filing Obligations. For so long as any Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements
of the Exchange Act, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee
and the Custodian shall (and shall cause (or, in the case of each Sub-Servicer set forth on Exhibit Y, shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause) each Additional Servicer and Servicing Function Participant utilized thereby to) reasonably cooperate
with each Other Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of each Other Securitization’s reporting requirements under
the Exchange Act.


 


Section 10.04     Form
10-D Disclosure. For so long as any Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, within

department of such party), in EDGAR-compatible format (to the extent available to such party in such format), or in such other
format as otherwise agreed upon by each such Other Exchange Act Reporting Party, each such Other Depositor and such parties, the
form and substance of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable, and (ii) the parties listed on Schedule IV
to this Agreement shall include with such Additional Form 10-D Disclosure application to such party and shall cause each Sub-Servicer
(or, in the case of each Sub-Servicer set forth on Exhibit Y, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
Sub-Servicer) and Subcontractor of such party to the extent required under Regulation AB to provide, and if received, include,
an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached as Exhibit CC to this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator
has no duty under this Agreement to monitor or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Schedule IV to this
Agreement of their duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such parties any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure
information.


 


Section 10.05     Form

to whether such Reporting Servicer’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria was fairly stated in
all material respects, or it cannot express an overall opinion regarding such party’s assessment of compliance with the
Relevant Servicing Criteria. In the event that 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. Each accountant’s attestation report required hereunder
shall be made in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Act and the Exchange Act. Such report

Section 10.10     Significant
Obligor. With respect to a Companion Loan that an applicable Other Depositor has notified the Master Servicer in writing that
the Mortgaged Property is a “significant obligor” (within the meaning of Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB) with respect
to an Other Securitization that includes such Companion Loan and of the distribution date in such Other Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall, solely to the extent the Master Servicer is in receipt of the updated financial statements
of such “significant obligor” for any calendar quarter (other than the fourth calendar quarter of any calendar year)
(beginning with the first calendar quarter following receipt of such notice from the Other Depositor) or the updated financial
statements of such “significant obligor” for any calendar year (beginning with the first calendar year following receipt
of such notice from the Other Depositor), as applicable, from the related Borrower or the Special Servicer, as applicable, deliver

the Master Servicer in writing that the Mortgaged Property is a “significant obligor” (within the meaning of Item
1101(k) of Regulation AB) with respect to an Other Securitization that includes a Companion Loan and the Master Servicer has not
received the financial statements required under the related Loan Documents satisfactory to comply with its obligations under
this Section 10.10, the Master Servicer shall request from the related Borrower or Special Servicer, as applicable, the
net operating income of the significant obligor for the relevant calendar year in time for the Master Servicer, assuming timely
receipt of such information from the related Borrower or Special Servicer, as applicable, to meet its obligations under Section
10.10 of this Agreement.


 


If the Master Servicer
does not receive financial information satisfactory to comply with Item 6 of Form 10-D or Item 1112(b)(1) of Form 10-K, as the
case may be, of such “significant obligor” within ten (10) Business Days after the date such financial information
is required to be delivered under the related Loan Documents, the Master Servicer shall notify the Other Depositor with respect
to such Other Securitization that includes such related Companion Loan (and shall cause each applicable sub-servicing agreement
to require any related Sub-


 



    -359- 


     


    

 


Servicer to notify such Other Depositor) that it has not received them. The Master Servicer shall use
efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard (taking into account, in addition, the ongoing reporting obligations of such Other
Depositor under the Exchange Act) to obtain the periodic financial statements of the related Borrower under the related Loan Documents.


 


The Master Servicer shall
(and shall cause each applicable sub-servicing agreement to require any related Sub-Servicer to) retain written evidence of each
instance in which it (or a Sub-Servicer) attempts to contact the Borrowers to obtain the required financial information and is
unsuccessful and, within five (5) Business Days prior to the date in which a Form 10-D or Form 10-K, as applicable, is required
to be filed with respect to the Other Securitization, shall forward an Officer’s Certificate evidencing its attempts to obtain
this information to the Other Exchange Act Reporting Party and Other Depositor related to such Other Securitization. This Officer’s
Certificate should be addressed to the certificate administrator at its corporate trust office, as specified in the related Other
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Backup Certification. For so long as any Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act,
the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer

Participant to provide) to the Person who signs the Sarbanes-Oxley Certification with respect to such Other Securitization (the
“Certifying Person”) no later than March 15 of the year following the year to which the Form 10-K of such Other
Securitization relates or, if March 15 is not a Business Day, on the immediately following Business Day, a certification (each,

Exhibit Q, Exhibit R, Exhibit T, Exhibit U or Exhibit V, as applicable, upon which
each Certifying Person, the entity for which such Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity’s officers, directors
and Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Persons, “Certification Parties”) can reasonably rely. In
the event 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 a certification to the Certifying
Person pursuant to this Section 10.11 with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or the applicable
sub-servicing or primary servicing agreement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be required
to deliver such certification with respect to any period during which there was no Relevant Servicing Criteria applicable to it.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing in this Section 10.08 shall require any Reporting Servicer (i) to certify or verify the accurateness or completeness of
any information provided to such Reporting Servicer by third parties (other than a Sub-Servicer, Additional Servicer or any other
third party retained by it that is not a Sub-Servicer listed on Exhibit Y or a Sub-Servicer appointed pursuant to Section
3.01(c)), (ii) to certify information other than to such Reporting Servicer’s knowledge and in accordance with such Reporting
Servicer’s responsibilities hereunder or (iii) with respect to completeness of information and reports, to certify anything
other than that all fields of information called for in written reports prepared by such Reporting Servicer have been completed
except as they have been left blank on their face.

any of the deliverables required by the applicable reporting requirements under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (“Reporting Requirements”).


 


In connection with comments
provided to the Depositor or any Other Depositor from the Commission regarding information (x) delivered by the Master Servicer,

such Affected Reporting Party elects, with the consent of the Depositor or Other Depositor, as applicable (which consent shall
not be unreasonably denied, withheld or delayed), to directly communicate with the Commission and negotiate a response and/or resolution
with the Commission; provided, if an Affected Reporting Party is a Servicing Function Participant or Additional Servicer retained
by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall receive copies of all material communications pursuant to this paragraph. If
such election is made, the applicable Affected Reporting Party shall be responsible for directly negotiating such response and/or
resolution with the Commission in a timely manner; provided, that (i) such Affected Reporting Party shall use reasonable efforts

Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer) with which it has entered into a servicing relationship with respect to a Mortgage Loan 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


 



    -362- 


     


    

 


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 Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, each Additional Servicer or other Servicing
Function Participant (the “Performing Party”) shall, and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating
Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Servicing Function
Participant with which it has entered into a servicing relationship (other than (x) a party to this Agreement or (y) any
Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer) with respect to a Mortgage Loan 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 XI. The Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian and the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause each Servicing Function Participant (other than (x) any party to this Agreement or (y) Mortgage Loan
Seller Sub-Servicers) with which it has entered into a servicing relationship with respect to a Mortgage Loan to agree to the foregoing
indemnification and contribution obligations.


 


Promptly after receipt
by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify in writing the indemnifying party of the commencement 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


 



    -363- 


     


    

 


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.


 


Section 10.13     Amendments.
This Article X may be amended by the parties hereto pursuant to Section 11.08 of this Agreement for purposes
of complying with Regulation AB, the Act or the Exchange Act and/or to conform to standards developed within the commercial mortgage-backed
securities market and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act without any Opinions of Counsel, Officer’s Certificates, Rating Agency Confirmations
or the consent of any Certificateholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement.


 


Section 10.14     Termination
of the Certificate Administrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Depositor or any
Other Depositor may terminate the Certificate Administrator upon five (5) Business Days’ notice if the Certificate Administrator
fails to comply with any of its obligations under this Article X; provided that such termination shall not be effective
until a successor Certificate Administrator shall have accepted the appointment.


 


Section 10.15     Termination
of Sub-Servicing Agreements. For so long as any Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange
Act, each of the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Custodian, as applicable,
shall (i) cause each Sub-Servicing Agreement to which it is a party to entitle the Depositor or any Other Depositor to terminate
such agreement (without compensation, termination fee or the consent of any other Person) at any time following any failure of
the applicable Sub-Servicer to any deliver any Exchange Act reporting items that such Sub-Servicer is required to deliver under
Regulation AB or as otherwise contemplated by this Article X and (ii) promptly notify the Depositor and any Other
Depositor following any failure of the applicable Sub-Servicer to deliver any Exchange Act reporting items that such Sub-Servicer
is required to deliver under Regulation AB or as otherwise contemplated by this Article X. The Depositor and any Other
Depositor is hereby authorized to exercise the rights described in clause (i) of the preceding sentence in its sole discretion.
The rights of the Depositor and any Other Depositor to terminate a Sub-Servicing Agreement as aforesaid shall not limit any right
the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, may have
to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement.


 


Section 10.16     Notification
Requirements and Deliveries in Connection with Securitization of a Companion Loan. (a) Any other provision of this Article
X to the contrary notwithstanding, including, without limitation, any deadlines for delivery set forth in this Article


 



    -364- 


     


    

 


 X, in connection with the requirements contained in this Article X that provide for the delivery of
information and other items to, and the cooperation with, the Other Depositor and Other Exchange Act Reporting Party of any Other
Securitization that includes a Companion Loan, no party hereunder shall be obligated to provide any such items to or cooperate
with such Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party (i) until the Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting
Party of such Other Securitization has provided each party hereto with not less than 30 days written notice (which shall only be
required to be delivered once and each party shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such notice until a Responsible Officer
thereof has received a subsequent notice), setting forth the contact information for such Person(s) and, except as regards the
deliveries and cooperation contemplated by Section 10.07, Section 10.08 and Section 10.09 of this Agreement,
stating that such Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and (ii) specifying in
reasonable detail the information and other items not otherwise specified in this Agreement that are requested to be delivered;
provided that if Exchange Act reporting is being requested, such Other Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party is
only required to provide a single written notice to such effect. Any reasonable cost and expense of the Master Servicer, Special
Servicer, the Operating Advisor, Trustee, Certificate Administrator and Custodian in cooperating with such Other Depositor or Other
Exchange Act Reporting Party of such Other Securitization (above and beyond their expressed duties hereunder) shall be the responsibility
of such Other Depositor or Other Securitization. The parties hereto shall have the right to confirm in good faith with the Other
Depositor of such Other Securitization as to whether applicable law requires the delivery of the items identified in this Article
X to such Other Depositor and Other Exchange Act Reporting Party of such Other Securitization prior to providing any of the
reports or other information required to be delivered under this Article X in connection therewith and (i) upon such
confirmation, the parties shall comply with the deadlines for delivery set forth in this Article X with respect to such
Other Securitization or (ii) in the absence of such confirmation, the parties shall not be required to deliver such items;
provided that no such confirmation will be required in connection with any delivery of the items contemplated by Section
10.07, Section 10.08 and Section 10.09 of this Agreement. Such confirmation shall be deemed given if the Other
Depositor or Other Exchange Act Reporting Party for the Other Securitization provides a written statement to the effect that the
Other Securitization is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the appropriate party hereto receives such
written statement. The parties hereunder shall also have the right to require that such Other Depositor provide them with the contact
details of such Other Depositor, Other Exchange Act Reporting Party and any other parties to the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement
relating to such Other Securitization.


 


(b)       Each
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Custodian
shall, upon reasonable prior written request given in accordance with the terms of Section 10.16(a) above, and subject to
a right of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, Certificate Administrator, Trustee or Custodian, as the
case may be, to review and approve such disclosure materials, permit each Companion Loan Holder to use such party’s description
contained in the Offering Circular (updated as appropriate by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor,
Certificate Administrator, Trustee or Custodian, as applicable, at the reasonable cost of the Other Depositor) for inclusion in
the disclosure materials relating to any securitization of a Companion Loan.


 






    -365- 


     


    

 


(c)       The
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator , the Trustee and the Custodian, upon
reasonable prior written request given in accordance with the terms of Section 10.16(a) above, shall each timely provide
(to the extent the reasonable cost thereof is paid or caused to be paid by the requesting party) to the Other Depositor and any
underwriters with respect to any securitization transaction that includes a Companion Loan such opinion(s) of counsel, certifications
and/or indemnification agreement(s) with respect to the updated description referred in Section 10.16(b) with respect to
such party, substantially identical to those, if any, delivered by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor,
the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian, as the case may be, or their respective counsel, in connection with
the information concerning such party in the Offering Circular and/or any other disclosure materials relating to this Trust (updated
as deemed appropriate by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator
or the Custodian, or their respective legal counsel, as the case may be, and sufficient to comply with Regulation AB). None of
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian shall
be obligated to deliver any such item with respect to the securitization of a Companion Loan if it did not deliver a corresponding
item with respect to this Trust.

such notice, request and offer of such indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding.
The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it hereunder or to institute, conduct
or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders of Certificates
unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities
which may be incurred therein or hereby. It is understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with
every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatsoever
by virtue of any provision of this Agreement or the Certificates to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any
other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority
or preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under this Agreement or the Certificates, except in
the manner herein or therein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection
and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 11.02, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled
to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.


 


No Certificateholder

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 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 this Agreement or
modifying in any manner the rights of the Certificateholders or the Companion Loan Noteholders; provided, that no such amendment
may:


 


(1)       reduce

consent of such Companion Loan Noteholders;


 


(2)       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


 



    -377- 


     


    

 


Holders of all
Certificates of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Loan Noteholder, as applicable;


 


(3)       adversely

(4)       change
in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of the Mortgage Loan Seller under

(5)       amend
the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from the
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 and the Trustee, at any time and
from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable, the 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 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 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, the Act 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 11.08 shall be effective with the consent
of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in writing,
and to the extent required by this Section 11.08, the Certificateholders and Companion Loan Noteholders.


 


It shall not be necessary
for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 11.08 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, 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


 



    -378- 


     


    

 


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
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 a tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund or
any such Trust REMIC.


 


Prior to the execution
of any amendment to this Agreement or any Custodial Agreement, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor,
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 the Rating Agency or requested by the Trustee for any purpose described in clauses (i), (ii) or
(iii) of the first sentence of this Section 11.08 (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 or the Operating Advisor may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any
such amendment which affects the Trustee’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Operating Advisor’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 Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) of the Mortgage Loan Seller or Initial Purchaser without the
written consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or Initial Purchaser, 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 Companion Loan Holder, Other Depositor, Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer
and Other Trustee), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Mortgage Loan Seller and the Initial Purchaser.


 


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.


 






    -379- 


     


    

 


Section 11.09     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 11.10     No
Intended Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as specified in Section 11.12 of this Agreement, no Person other than a
party to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Initial Purchaser or any Certificateholder shall have any rights with respect
to the enforcement of any of the rights or obligations hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt,
subject to Section 11.12 of this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement specifically state that no Borrower, Manager
or other party to a Mortgage Loan is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.


 


Section 11.11     Entire
Agreement. This Agreement (and, with respect to each Whole Loan, together with the related Intercreditor Agreement) contains
the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all
prior and contemporaneous agreements, understanding, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature
whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof. The express terms hereof control and supersedes any course of performance
or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.


 






    -380- 


     


    

 


Section 11.12     Third
Party Beneficiaries. Each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer acknowledge
that (i) the Mortgage Loan Seller and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. are third party beneficiaries with respect to Section 8.05(h)
of this Agreement, the obligations of any party to this Agreement to deliver information to the 17g-5 Information Provider
hereunder and the obligations of the 17g-5 Information Provider to post information to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s
Website (or make available to the NRSROs the items referenced in Section 3.13(b) and (d)) and the express obligations
of any party hereto to deliver documents, notices, information or funds to the Mortgage Loan Seller, (ii) the Mortgage Loan
Seller is a third party beneficiary with respect to Section 2.01, Section 2.02, Section 2.03, Section 8.05
and Section 11.08 of this Agreement and its rights as a Privileged Person, (iii) the Initial Purchaser is a third
party beneficiary with respect to its rights to receive any notices, documents, certifications and/or information hereunder and
its rights under Section 11.08 of this Agreement, (iv) each holder of a Companion Loan and any related Other
Depositor is an intended third party beneficiary in respect of the rights afforded it under this Agreement and may directly (or,
in the case of a holder of a Companion Loan, the related Other Servicer may) enforce such rights, and (v) each of the Companion
Loan Service Providers under the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement is an intended third party beneficiary under
this Agreement with respect to any provision herein expressly relating to compensation, reimbursement or indemnification of such
Companion Loan Service Provider and the provisions regarding the coordination of Advances.

The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as special servicer (in such capacity, the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), paying agent and custodian,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) evidences
the issuance of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class HRR and Class R 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 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 sixth day of
each month, or if such sixth day is not a Business Day, then the succeeding Business Day, commencing in July 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 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


 






     A-1-5


    


    

 


“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 invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.

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) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The

                                         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

		(iv)	change
                                         in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations

	 	 	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 and the Trustee,
at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable, the 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 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 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

The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as special servicer (in such capacity, the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), paying agent and custodian,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) evidences
the issuance of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class HRR and Class R 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 sixth day of
each month, or if such sixth day is not a Business Day, then the succeeding Business Day, commencing in July 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


 






     A-2-5


    


    

 


“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 invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 






     A-2-6


    


    

 


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 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

Collateral Accounts, Escrow Accounts, and Reserve Accounts; (viii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (ix) the Collection Account,
the 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 Agreement relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier
Regular Interests and (xiv) 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.

to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and any agent of

any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice or knowledge to the contrary.

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 and the Trustee without the consent of any of the Certificateholders
or any 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 Offering Circular 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 the 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 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 that would be a
claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC; 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


 






     A-2-8


    


    

 


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 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 the Rating Agency 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 the Rating Agency, as evidenced
by a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency; 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 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

                                         of the Class or Classes affected thereby or which are required to be distributed to any

                                         Loan Noteholder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates

		(iv)	change

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 and the Trustee,
at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable, the 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 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 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-2-11


    


    

 


(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 aggregate Certificate Balance of the
Class A, Class B and Class C Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all
of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the 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 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 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 of its Certificates for
the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 9.01(g) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and (iii) the later of (a) the receipt
or collection of the last payment due on any Mortgage Loan included in the Trust 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 of 21 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.

The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as special servicer (in such capacity, the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), paying agent and custodian,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) evidences the
issuance of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class HRR and Class R 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 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 sixth day of
each month, or if such sixth day is not a Business Day, then the succeeding Business Day, commencing in July 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


 






     A-3-5


    


    

 


“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 invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 






     A-3-6


    


    

 


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

be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC, 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 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

		(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



 






     A-3-11

Class A, Class B and Class C Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all
of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the 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

The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as special servicer (in such capacity, the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), paying agent and custodian,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) evidences the
issuance of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class HRR and Class R 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 sixth day of
each month, or if such sixth day is not a Business Day, then the succeeding Business Day, commencing in July 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.


 


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


 






    A-4-5


     


    

 


“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 invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.

                                         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;

		(iv)	change
                                         in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations

		 	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 and the Trustee,
at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable, the 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 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 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

                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date

                                         P&I Advances previously made on account of interest); and

[Class A, 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 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

The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as special servicer (in such capacity, the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), paying agent and custodian,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) evidences the
issuance of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class HRR and Class R 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 HRR 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 sixth
day of each month, or if such sixth day is not a Business Day, then the succeeding Business Day, commencing in July 2018.


 


During
each Interest Accrual Period (as defined below), interest on the Class HRR 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


 






    A-5-5


     


    

 


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 invested in Permitted
Investments and all income and gain realized from investment of such funds shall accrue for its benefit.


 






    A-5-6

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 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

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 Agreement relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier
Regular Interests and (xiv) 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 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

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
charge payable in connection with any such transfer.

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 and the Trustee without the consent of any of the Certificateholders
or any 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

claim against the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC; 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

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 the Rating Agency, as evidenced
by a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agency; 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 Pari Passu Companion Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel

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

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;

as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from

                                                                                                                                                       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 and the Trustee,
at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Certificateholders or, if applicable, the 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 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 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-5-11


     


    

 





		 	(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 aggregate Certificate Balance of the
Class A, Class B and Class C Certificates is reduced to zero, the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all
of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the 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 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 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 of its Certificates for
the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 9.01(g) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and (iii) the later of (a) the receipt
or collection of the last payment due on any Mortgage Loan included in the Trust 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 of 21 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.

AFFILIATES. NEITHER THE CERTIFICATES NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY OR
INSTRUMENTALITY.


 


FOR
U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES, THIS CERTIFICATE REPRESENTS A “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 (THE “CODE”). A TRANSFEREE OF THIS CERTIFICATE, BY ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, IS DEEMED TO HAVE
ACCEPTED 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 AGENT (INCLUDING A BROKER, NOMINEE OR OTHER MIDDLEMAN) FOR SUCH DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION AND IS OTHERWISE A PERMITTED
TRANSFEREE, (B) IT WILL NOT CAUSE INCOME WITH RESPECT TO THIS CERTIFICATE TO BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO A FOREIGN PERMANENT ESTABLISHMENT
OR FIXED BASE, WITHIN THE MEANING OF AN APPLICABLE INCOME TAX TREATY, OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER U.S. PERSON, (C) IT HAS HISTORICALLY
PAID ITS DEBTS AS THEY HAVE COME DUE AND INTENDS TO CONTINUE TO PAY ITS DEBTS AS THEY COME DUE IN THE FUTURE, AND (D) IT INTENDS
TO PAY ANY TAXES ASSOCIATED WITH HOLDING THIS CERTIFICATE AS THEY BECOME DUE. ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER TO A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION
OR OTHER PERSON THAT IS NOT A PERMITTED TRANSFEREE OR OTHERWISE IN VIOLATION OF THESE RESTRICTIONS SHALL BE ABSOLUTELY NULL AND
VOID AND SHALL VEST NO RIGHTS IN ANY PURPORTED TRANSFEREE. BECAUSE THIS CERTIFICATE REPRESENTS MULTIPLE “NON-ECONOMIC RESIDUAL
INTERESTS,” AS DEFINED IN TREASURY REGULATIONS SECTION 1.860E 1(c), TRANSFERS OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE DISREGARDED FOR
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
AND EITHER TO PAY A SPECIFIED AMOUNT TO THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE OR TRANSFER TO AN ELIGIBLE TRANSFEREE AS PROVIDED IN REGULATIONS.

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.


 


The
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2018 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between
the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”),
AEGON USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as special servicer (in such capacity, the “Special Servicer”), Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”), paying agent and custodian,
and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) evidences the
issuance of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class HRR and Class R 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
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

2 For Rule 144A Certificates







 






    A-7-1


     


    

 


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
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


 






    A-7-2


     


    

 


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 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 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 Agreement relating to document delivery requirements with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and the representations and warranties of the Mortgage Loan Seller regarding its Mortgage Loans; (xiii) the Lower-Tier
Regular Interests and (xiv) 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.

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

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 and the Trustee without the consent of any of the Certificateholders
or any 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 Offering Circular with respect to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct

interest of any Certificateholder or if applicable, any 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

                                         Rate to the last day of the month preceding such Anticipated Termination Date (less any

1.       That
he/she is a                                      
of                                      
(the “Purchaser”), a

on behalf of which he/she makes this affidavit.


 


2.       That

3.       That
the Purchaser of the COMM 2018-HOME Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2018-HOME, Class R (the
“Class R Certificate”) is a Permitted Transferee (as defined in Article I of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,

R Certificate for the account of, or as agent (including as a broker, nominee, or other middleman) for, a Permitted Transferee
and has received from such person or entity an affidavit substantially in the form of this affidavit.


 


4.       That
the Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future
and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificate as they become due.


 


5.       That
the Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flow
generated by the Class R Certificate.


 


6.       That
the Purchaser will not transfer the Class R Certificate to any person or entity from which the Purchaser has not received an affidavit
substantially in the form of this affidavit or as to which the Purchaser has actual knowledge that the requirements set forth
in paragraph 3, paragraph 4 or paragraph 7 hereof are not satisfied or that the Purchaser has reason to know does not satisfy
the requirements set forth in paragraph 4 hereof.


 


7.       That
the Purchaser is not a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person and is not purchasing the Class R Certificate for the account of, or as

    C-1-1 


     


    

 


nominee or other middleman) for, a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person and is otherwise a Permitted
Transferee.


 


8.        That
the Purchaser agrees to such amendments of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as may be required to further effectuate the restrictions
on transfer of the Class R Certificate to a “disqualified organization,” an agent thereof, or a person that does not
satisfy the requirements of paragraph 4, paragraph 7 and paragraph 11 hereof.


 


9.        That,
if a “tax matters person” or “partnership representative” is required to be designated with respect to

12.       Check
the applicable paragraph:


 


☐        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.

                                         complying with, Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act, (ii) entities qualifying

                                         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.

                                         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 Offering Circular dated June 1, 2018, relating
                                         to the Certificates (the “Offering Circular”) and the agreements and
                                         other materials referred to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and

an owner of a Certificate or Certificates, as the case 



 






    D-1-2

                                         the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and all Certificateholders
                                         present and future.

[section of the 17g-5 Information Provider’s website that hosts the Depositor’s 17g-5 website after the Closing Date
(as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement)]. Information provided by each Furnishing Entity is labeled as provided by
the specific Furnishing Entity.


 


		1.	Definition of Confidential Information. For purposes of this Confidentiality Agreement, the
term “Confidential Information” shall include the following information (irrespective of its source or form
of communication, including information obtained by you through access to this site) that may be furnished to you by or on behalf
of a Furnishing Entity in connection with the issuance or monitoring of a rating with respect to the Certificates: (x) all
data, reports, interpretations, forecasts, records, agreements, legal documents and other information (such information, the “Evaluation
Material”) and (y)  any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect to the transactions contemplated by
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, including the status thereof; provided, however, that the term Confidential
Information shall not include information which:



 


		-	was or becomes generally available to the public (including
through filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission or disclosure in an offering document) other than as a result of a
disclosure by you or a NRSRO Representative (as defined in Section 2(c)(i) below) in violation of this Confidentiality
Agreement;



 


		-	was or is lawfully obtained by you from a source other
than a Furnishing Entity or its representatives that (i) is reasonably believed by you to be under no obligation to maintain
the information as confidential and (ii) provides it to you without any obligation to maintain the information as confidential;
or



 


		-	is independently developed by the NRSRO without reference
to any Confidential Information.



 






     Z-3


    


    

 


		2.	Information to Be Held in Confidence.



 


		(a)	You will use the Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining or monitoring a credit
rating on the Certificates and, to the extent that any information used is derived from but does not reveal any Confidential Information,
for benchmarking, modeling or research purposes (the “Intended Purpose”).



 


		(b)	You acknowledge that you are aware that the United States and state securities laws impose restrictions
on trading in securities when in possession of material, non-public information and that the NRSRO will advise (through policy
manuals or otherwise) each NRSRO Representative who is informed of the matters that are the subject of this Confidentiality Agreement
to that effect.



 


		(c)	You will treat the Confidential Information as private and confidential. Subject to Section 4, without
the prior written consent of the applicable Furnishing Entity, you will not disclose to any person any Confidential Information,
whether such Confidential Information was furnished to you before, on or after the date of this Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, you may:



 


		(i)	disclose the Confidential Information to any of the NRSRO’s affiliates, directors, officers,
employees, legal representatives, agents and advisors (each, a “NRSRO Representative”) who, in the reasonable
judgment of the NRSRO, need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the Intended Purpose; provided, that,
prior to disclosure of the Confidential Information to a NRSRO Representative, the NRSRO shall have taken reasonable precautions
to ensure, and shall be satisfied, that such NRSRO Representative will act in accordance with this Confidentiality Agreement;



 


		(ii)	solely to the extent required for compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3) of the Act (17 C.F.R. 240.17g-5),
post the Confidential Information to the NRSRO’s password protected website; and



 


		(iii)	use information derived from the Confidential Information in connection with an Intended Purpose,
if such derived information does not reveal any Confidential Information.



 


		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 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



 






     Z-4


    


    

 


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.


 


		4.	Obligation to Return Evaluation Material. Promptly upon written request by or on behalf of
the relevant Furnishing Entity, all material or documents, including copies thereof, that contain Evaluation Material will be destroyed
or, in your sole discretion, returned to the relevant Furnishing Entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the NRSRO may
retain one or more copies of any document or other material containing Evaluation Material to the extent necessary for legal or
regulatory compliance (or compliance with the NRSRO’s internal policies and procedures designed to ensure legal or regulatory
compliance) and (b) the NRSRO may retain any portion of the Evaluation Material that may be found in backup tapes or other
archive or electronic media or other documents prepared by the NRSRO and any Evaluation Material obtained in an oral communication;
provided, that any Evaluation Material so retained by the NRSRO will remain subject to this Confidentiality Agreement and
the NRSRO will remain bound by the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement.



 


		5.	Violations of this Confidentiality Agreement.



 


		(a)	The NRSRO will be responsible for any breach of this Confidentiality Agreement by you, the NRSRO or
any NRSRO Representative.



 


		(b)	You agree promptly to advise each relevant Furnishing Entity in writing of any misappropriation or
unauthorized disclosure or use by any person of the Confidential Information which may come to your attention and to take all steps
reasonably requested by such Furnishing Entity to limit, stop or otherwise remedy such misappropriation, or unauthorized disclosure
or use.



 


		(c)	You acknowledge and agree that the Furnishing Entities would not have an adequate remedy at law and
would be irreparably harmed in the event that any of the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement were not performed in accordance
with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each Furnishing Entity shall be entitled to
specific performance and injunctive relief to 



 






     Z-5


    


    

 


prevent breaches of this Confidentiality Agreement and to specifically enforce the
terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which a Furnishing Entity may be entitled at law or in equity.
It is further understood and agreed that no failure to or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude
any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.


 


		6.	Term. Notwithstanding the termination or cancellation of this Confidentiality Agreement and
regardless of whether the NRSRO has provided a credit rating on a Security, your obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement
will survive indefinitely.



 


		7.	Governing Law. This Confidentiality Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising
under the Confidentiality Agreement, the relationships of the parties and/or the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and
duties of the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements
made and to be performed within such State.

by the NRSRO and each Furnishing Entity.



 


		9.	Entire Agreement. This Confidentiality Agreement represents the entire agreement between you
and the Furnishing Entities relating to the treatment of Confidential Information heretofore or hereafter reviewed or inspected
by you. This agreement supersedes all other understandings and agreements between us relating to such matters; provided,
however, that, if the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with another agreement relating to the Confidential
Information that specifically states that the terms of such agreement shall supersede, modify or amend the terms of this Confidentiality
Agreement, then to the extent the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with such agreement, the terms of such agreement
shall control notwithstanding acceptance by you of the terms hereof by entry into this website.



 


		10.	Contact Information. Notices for each Furnishing Entity under this Confidentiality Agreement,

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 June 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 and Companion 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

Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or (c) 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 (c) 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.

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


 






     AA-2-2


    


    

 


financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an 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.

Agreement except as set forth in Section 3.12(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and that the Excess Servicing Fee Rate

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.
