capacities, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Note Administrator”), COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as custodian (herein, together with its permitted successors and assigns in the trusts
hereunder, the “Custodian”), and FS CREDIT REAL ESTATE INCOME TRUST, INC. (including any successor by merger, “FS Credit REIT”), as advancing agent (herein, together with its permitted successors and assigns in the
trusts hereunder, the “Advancing Agent”). 
 PRELIMINARY STATEMENT 

The Issuer is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture to provide for the Notes issuable as provided in this Indenture. All
covenants and agreements made by the Issuer herein are for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties. The Issuer, the Note Administrator, in all of its capacities hereunder, the Custodian, the Trustee and the Advancing Agent are entering into
this Indenture, and the Trustee is accepting the trusts created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged. 

All things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Issuer in accordance with this Indenture’s terms have been done.

 GRANTING CLAUSE 
 The Issuer
hereby Grants to the Trustee, for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under, in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising out of (in each case, to the
extent of the Issuer’s interest therein and specifically excluding any interest in the related Future Funding Participation therein): 

(a) the Closing Date Collateral Interests listed on Schedule A hereto which the Issuer purchases on the Closing Date and
causes to be delivered to the Trustee (directly or through the Custodian) herewith, including all payments thereon or with respect thereto, and all Collateral Interests which are delivered to the Trustee (directly or through the Custodian) after the
Closing Date pursuant to the terms hereof and all payments thereon or with respect thereto, in each case, other than Retained Interest, if any, under, and as defined in, the Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement; 

(b) all Funded Companion Participations acquired by the Issuer after the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture, and all payments thereon or with respect thereto; 
 (c) the Servicing Accounts, the Indenture Accounts and the
related Security Entitlements and all income from the investment of funds in any of the foregoing at any time credited to any of the foregoing accounts; 











 (d) the Eligible Investments; 

(e) the rights of the Issuer under the Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement; 

(f) all amounts delivered to the Note Administrator (or its bailee) (directly or through a Securities Intermediary); 

(g) all other investment property, Instruments and General Intangibles in which the Issuer has an interest; 

(h) the Issuer’s ownership interest in, and rights to, all Permitted Subsidiaries; and 

(i) all proceeds with respect to the foregoing clauses (a) through (h). 

The collateral described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (i) is referred to herein as the
“Collateral.” Such Grants are made to secure the Secured Notes equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or distinction between any Secured Note and any other Secured Note, for any reason, except as expressly provided in this
Indenture (including, but not limited to, the Priority of Payments) and to secure (i) the payment of all amounts due on and in respect of the Secured Notes in accordance with their terms, (ii) the payment of all other sums payable under
this Indenture and (iii) compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, all as provided in this Indenture. The foregoing Grant shall, for the purpose of determining the property subject to the lien of this Indenture, be deemed to include any
securities and any investments granted by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, whether or not such securities or such investments satisfy the criteria set forth in the definitions of “Collateral
Interest” or “Eligible Investment,” as the case may be. 
 Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Indenture, this
Indenture shall constitute a security agreement under the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed therein, for the benefit of the Noteholders. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of
Default hereunder, and in addition to any other rights available under this Indenture or any other Collateral held for the benefit and security of the Noteholders or otherwise available at law or in equity but subject to the terms hereof, the
Trustee shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the laws of the State of New York and other applicable law to enforce the assignments and security interests contained herein and, in addition, shall have the right, subject to
compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law and the terms of this Indenture, to exercise, sell or apply any rights and other interests assigned or pledged hereby in accordance with the terms hereof at public and private sale. 

The Trustee acknowledges such Grants, accepts the trusts hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof, and agrees to perform the duties
herein in accordance with, and subject to, the terms hereof, in order that the interests of the Secured Parties may be adequately and effectively protected in accordance with this Indenture.

 Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, for all purposes hereunder, no
holder of the Class H Notes shall be a secured party for purposes of the Grant by virtue of holding such Notes. 
 CREDIT RISK RETENTION

 On the Closing Date, pursuant to the U.S. Risk Retention Agreement and the UK Risk Retention Letter, the Retention Holder will retain
100% of the Class H Notes. The Class H Notes are referred to in this Indenture as the EHRI.

appoint a successor or, in the absence of such appointment, assume the duties of Notes Registrar. 
 The name and address of each Noteholder
and the principal amounts and stated interest of each such Noteholder in its Notes shall be recorded by the Notes Registrar in the Notes Register. For the avoidance of doubt, the Notes Register is intended to be and shall be maintained so as to
cause the Notes to be considered issued in registered form under Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c). 

If a Person other than the Note Administrator is appointed by the Issuer as Notes Registrar, the Issuer shall give the Note Administrator
prompt written notice of the appointment of a successor Notes Registrar and of the location, and any change in the location, of the Notes Register, and the Note Administrator shall have the right to inspect the Notes Register at all reasonable times

Subject to this Section 2.5, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Notes at the office or agency of the
Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2, the Issuer shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of
any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount. 
 At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for Notes of
like terms, in any authorized denominations and of like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2. Whenever any
Note is surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

All Notes issued and authenticated upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer
evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Notes Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 

No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Note Administrator may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Neither the Notes Registrar
nor the Issuer shall be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before any selection of Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of
business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption. 

(b) No Note may be sold or transferred (including, without limitation, by pledge or hypothecation) unless such sale or transfer is exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and is exempt from the registration requirements under applicable securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. 

(c) No Note may be offered, sold, resold or delivered, within the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. Persons except in
accordance with Section 2.5(e) below and in accordance with Rule 144A to QIBs or, solely with respect to Definitive Notes, IAIs who are also Qualified Purchasers purchasing for their own account or for the accounts of one
or more QIBs or IAIs who are also Qualified Purchasers, for which the purchaser is acting as fiduciary or agent.

The Notes may be offered, sold, resold or delivered, as the case may be, in offshore transactions to non-U.S. Persons in reliance on Regulation S which are
also Qualified Purchasers. None of the Issuer, the Note Administrator, the Trustee or any other Person may register the Notes under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. 

(d) Upon final payment due on the Stated Maturity Date of a Note, the Holder thereof shall present and surrender such Note at the Corporate

Notes Registrar shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction, to credit or cause to be credited to the securities account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the corresponding Rule 144A Global Note equal to
the reduction in the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note or (y) if the transferee is taking an interest in a Definitive Note, the Notes Registrar shall record the transfer in the Notes Register in accordance with
Section 2.5(a) and, upon execution by the Issuer, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver one or more Definitive Notes, as applicable, registered in the names specified in the instructions described above,
in principal amounts designated by the transferee (the aggregate of such principal amounts being equal to the aggregate principal amount of the interest in the Regulation S Global Note transferred by the transferor).

Trustee, the Note Administrator nor the Notes Registrar (nor any other Transfer Agent) shall be responsible or liable for compliance with applicable federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act or Rule 144A or
Regulation S promulgated thereunder), the 1940 Act, ERISA or the Code (or any applicable regulations thereunder); provided, however, that if a specified transfer certificate or Opinion of Counsel is required by the express terms of
this Section 2.5 to be delivered to the Note Administrator or Notes Registrar prior to registration of transfer of a Note, the Note Administrator and/or Notes Registrar, as applicable, is required to request, as a condition
for registering the transfer of the Note, such certificate or Opinion of Counsel and to examine the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the requirements hereof (and the Note Administrator or Notes Registrar, as the case may be,
shall promptly notify the party delivering the same if it determines that such certificate or Opinion of Counsel does not so conform). 

(l) [Reserved] 
 (m) If the Note
Administrator has actual knowledge or is notified by the Issuer that (i) a transfer or attempted or purported transfer of any interest in any Note was consummated in compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.5
on the basis of a materially incorrect certification from the transferee or purported transferee, (ii) a transferee failed to deliver to the Note Administrator any certification required to be delivered hereunder or (iii) the holder of any
interest in a Note is in breach of any representation or agreement set forth in any certification or any deemed representation or agreement of such holder, the Note Administrator shall not register such attempted or purported transfer and if a
transfer has been registered, such transfer shall be absolutely null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee (such purported transferee, a “Disqualified Transferee”) and the last preceding holder of
such interest in such Note that was not a Disqualified Transferee shall be restored to all rights as a Holder thereof retroactively to the date of transfer of such Note by such Holder. 

In addition, the Note Administrator may require that the interest in the Note referred to in (i), (ii) or (iii) in the preceding
paragraph be transferred to any Person designated by the Issuer at a price determined by the Issuer, based upon its estimation of the prevailing price of such interest and each Holder, by acceptance of an interest in a Note, authorizes the Note
Administrator to take such action. In any case, neither the Issuer nor the Note Administrator shall be held responsible for any losses that may be incurred as a result of any required transfer under this Section 2.5(m).

 (n) Each Holder of Notes approves and consents to (i) the purchase of the Closing Date Collateral Interests by the Issuer from the
Seller on the Closing Date, (ii) the purchase of any Funded Companion Participation by the Issuer and (iii) any other transaction between the Issuer and the Seller or their Affiliates that are permitted under the terms of this Indenture or
the Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement. 
 (o) As long as any Note is Outstanding, any retained or repurchased Notes, any of the
Retained Notes and the Membership Interests held by Sub-REIT or the Retention Holder or any other disregarded entity of Sub-REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes may
not be transferred (whether by means of an actual transfer or a transfer of beneficial ownership for U.S. federal income tax purposes), pledged or hypothecated to any Person unless (i)(A) 100% of the retained or repurchased Notes, the Retained Notes
or the Membership Interests are transferred, pledged or hypothecated to a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or other disregarded entity of Sub-REIT or (B) 100% of the retained or repurchased Notes, the Retained Notes
or the Membership Interests are transferred, pledged or hypothecated to another REIT or a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or 

  
 -61- 












 
another disregarded entity of a another REIT or (ii) with respect to such transfer, pledge or hypothecation the Issuer receives an opinion from Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP or
another nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that upon such transfer, pledge or hypothecation the Issuer will continue to be treated as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or other disregarded entity of a REIT. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Accounts (including income, if any, earned on the investments of funds in such account) will be
owned by Sub-REIT, if the Issuer is wholly-owned by Sub-REIT, or a subsequent REIT that wholly-owns the Issuer, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Issuer shall
provide to the Note Administrator (i) an IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8 no later than the Closing Date, and (ii) any additional IRS forms (or updated
versions of any previously submitted IRS forms) or other documentation at such time or times required by applicable law or upon the reasonable request of the Note Administrator as may be necessary (x) to reduce or eliminate the imposition of
U.S. withholding taxes and (y) to permit the Note Administrator to fulfill its tax reporting obligations under applicable law with respect to the Indenture Accounts or any amounts paid to the Issuer. If any IRS form or other documentation
previously delivered becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, Issuer shall timely provide to the Note Administrator accurately updated and complete versions of such IRS forms or other documentation. The Note Administrator shall have no
liability to Issuer or any other person in connection with any tax withholding amounts paid or withheld from the Indenture Accounts pursuant to applicable law arising from the Issuer’s failure to timely provide an accurate, correct and complete
IRS Form W-9, an appropriate IRS Form W-8 or such other documentation contemplated under this paragraph. For the avoidance of doubt, no funds shall be invested with
respect to such Indenture Accounts absent the Note Administrator having first received (i) the requisite written investment direction from the Issuer with respect to the investment of such funds, and (ii) the IRS forms and other
documentation required by this paragraph. 
 Section 2.6 Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Note. 

If (a) any mutilated or defaced Note is surrendered to a Transfer Agent, or if there shall be delivered to the Issuer, the Trustee, the
Note Administrator and the relevant Transfer Agent (each, a “Specified Person”) evidence to their reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (b) there is delivered to each Specified Person such
security or indemnity as may be required by each Specified Person to save each of them and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Specified Persons that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
the Issuer shall execute and, upon Issuer Request (which Issuer Request shall be deemed to have been given upon receipt by the Note Administrator of a Note that has been signed by the Issuer), the Note Administrator shall cause the Authenticating
Agent to authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal amount, registered in the same manner, dated the date of
its authentication, bearing interest from the date to which interest has been paid on the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

If, after delivery of such new Note, a bona fide purchaser of the predecessor Note presents for payment, transfer or exchange such predecessor
Note, any Specified Person shall be entitled to recover such new Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, and each Specified Person shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to
the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by such Specified Person in connection therewith. 

  
 -62- 












 In case any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become due and
payable, the Issuer, in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note without requiring surrender thereof except that any mutilated or defaced Note shall be surrendered. 

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.6, the Issuer may require the payment by the registered
Holder thereof 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 Trustee) connected therewith. 

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.6 in lieu of any mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note
shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, and such new Note shall be entitled, subject to the second paragraph of this Section 2.6, to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 2.6 are
exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 

Section 2.7 Payment of Principal and Interest and Other Amounts; Principal and Interest Rights Preserved. 

(a) Each Class of Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the Note Interest Rate applicable to such
Class and such interest will be payable in arrears on each Payment Date on the Aggregate Outstanding Amount thereof on the first day of the related Interest Accrual Period (after giving effect to payments of principal thereof on such date),
except as otherwise set forth below. Payment of interest on each Class of Notes will be subordinated to the payment of interest on each related Class of Notes senior thereto. Any payment of interest due on a Class of Deferred Interest
Notes on any Payment Date to the extent sufficient funds are not available to make such payment in accordance with the Priority of Payments on such Payment Date, but only if such Class is not the most senior Class Outstanding, shall
constitute “Deferred Interest” with respect to such Class and shall not be considered “due and payable” for the purposes of Section 5.1(a) (and the failure to pay such interest shall not be an Event
of Default) until the earliest of (i) the Payment Date on which funds are available to pay such Deferred Interest in accordance with the Priority of Payments, (ii) the Redemption Date with respect to such Class of Deferred Interest
Notes and (iii) the Stated Maturity Date (or the earlier date of Maturity) of such Class of Deferred Interest Notes. Deferred Interest on any Class of Deferred Interest Notes shall be added to the principal balance of such
Class of Deferred Interest Notes. Regardless of whether any more senior Class of Notes is Outstanding with respect to any Class of Deferred Interest Notes, to the extent that funds are not available on any Payment Date (other than the
Redemption Date with respect to, or Stated Maturity Date of, such Class of Deferred Interest Notes) to pay previously accrued Deferred Interest, such previously accrued Deferred Interest will not be due and payable on such Payment Date and any
failure to pay such previously accrued Deferred Interest on such 

  
 -63- 












 
Payment Date will not be an Event of Default. Interest will cease to accrue on each Note, or in the case of a partial repayment, on such repaid part, from the date of repayment or the Stated
Maturity Date unless payment of principal is improperly withheld or unless an Event of Default occurs with respect to such payments of principal. To the extent lawful and enforceable, interest on any interest that is not paid when due on the
Class A Notes; or, if no Class A Notes are Outstanding, the Notes of the Controlling Class, shall accrue at the Note Interest Rate applicable to such Class until paid as provided herein. 

(b) (i) So long as any of the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes or the Class B Notes
are outstanding, the Class C Deferred Interest will be deferred and added to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class C Notes and will not be considered “due and payable” until the Payment Date on which funds are available
to pay such Class C Deferred Interest in accordance with the Priority of Payments, (ii) so long as any of the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes, the Class B Notes or the Class C
Notes are outstanding, the Class D Deferred Interest and the Class D-E Deferred Interest will be deferred and added to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class D Notes or the Class D-E Notes, as applicable, and will not be considered “due and payable” until the Payment Date on which funds are available to pay such Class D Deferred Interest and Class D-E Deferred Interest in accordance with the Priority of Payments, (iii) so long as any of the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes, the Class B
Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes, Class D-E Notes or Class D-X Notes are outstanding, the Class E Deferred Interest and the Class E-E Deferred Interest will be deferred and added to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class E Notes or the Class E-E Notes, as applicable, and will
not be considered “due and payable” until the Payment Date on which funds are available to pay such Class E Deferred Interest and Class E-E Deferred Interest in accordance with the Priority
of Payments, (iv) so long as any of the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes, the
Class D-E Notes, the Class D-X Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class E-E Notes or the Class E-X Notes are outstanding, the Class F Deferred Interest and the Class F-E Deferred Interest will be deferred and added to the Aggregate Outstanding
Amount of the Class F Notes or the Class F-E Notes, as applicable, and will not be considered “due and payable” until the Payment Date on which funds are available to pay such Class F
Deferred Interest and Class F-E Deferred Interest in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and (v) so long as any of the Class A Notes, the
Class A-S Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes, the Class D-E Notes, the
Class D-X Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class E-E Notes, the Class E-X Notes, the Class F Notes, the Class F-E Notes or the Class F-X Notes are outstanding, the Class G Deferred Interest and the Class G-E Deferred
Interest will be deferred and added to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class G Notes or the Class G-E Notes, as applicable, and will not be considered “due and payable” until the
Payment Date on which funds are available to pay such Class G Deferred Interest and Class G-E Deferred Interest in accordance with the Priority of Payments. The failure to pay such Class C
Deferred Interest, Class D Deferred Interest, the Class D-E Deferred Interest, Class E Deferred Interest, the Class E-E Deferred Interest,
Class F Deferred Interest, Class F-E Deferred Interest, Class G Deferred Interest or Class G-E Deferred Interest as a result of the operation of the
Priority of Payments will not constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture. 

  
 -64- 












 (c) The principal of each Class of Notes matures at par and is due and payable on the
Stated Maturity Date, unless such principal has been previously repaid or unless the unpaid principal of such Note becomes due and payable at an earlier date by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the payment of principal of each Class of Notes may only occur pursuant to the Priority of Payments. The payment of principal on any Note (x) may only occur (other than amounts constituting Deferred Interest thereon which will
be payable from Interest Proceeds) after each Class more senior thereto is no longer Outstanding and (y) is subordinated to the payment on each Payment Date of the principal due and payable on each Class more senior thereto and
certain other amounts in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Payments of principal on any Class of Notes that are not paid, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, on any Payment Date (other than the Payment Date which is the Stated
Maturity Date (or the earlier date of Maturity) of such Class of Notes or any Redemption Date), because of insufficient funds therefor shall not be considered “due and payable” for purposes of Section 5.1(a)
until the Payment Date on which such principal may be paid in accordance with the Priority of Payments or all Classes of Notes most senior thereto with respect to such Class have been paid in full. Payments of principal on the Notes in
connection with a Clean-up Call, Tax Redemption, Auction Call Redemption or Optional Redemption will be made in accordance with Section 9.1 and the Priority of Payments. 

(d) As a condition to the payment of principal of and interest on any Note without the imposition of U.S. withholding tax, the Issuer shall
require certification acceptable to it to enable the Issuer, the Trustee and the Paying Agent to determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that they may be required to deduct or withhold from payments in
respect of such Note under any present or future law or regulation of the United States or any present or future law or regulation of any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein or to comply with any reporting or other requirements
under any such law or regulation. Such certification may include U.S. federal income tax forms (such as IRS Form W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding and
Reporting (Individuals)), IRS Form W-8BEN-E (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding and Reporting (Entities)), IRS Form W-8IMY (Certificate of Foreign Intermediary, Foreign Flow-Through Entity or Certain U.S. Branches for United States Tax Withholding and Reporting), IRS Form W-9 (Request for
Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification), or IRS Form W-8ECI (Certificate of Foreign Person’s Claim that Income Is Effectively Connected with the Conduct of a Trade or Business in the United
States) or any successors to such IRS forms). In addition, each of the Issuer, the Trustee or any Paying Agent may require certification acceptable to it to enable the Issuer to qualify for a reduced rate of withholding in any jurisdiction from or
through which the Issuer receives payments on its Collateral and otherwise as may be necessary or desirable to ensure compliance with all applicable laws. Each Holder and each beneficial owner of Notes agree to provide any certification requested
pursuant to this Section 2.7(d) and to update or replace such form or certification in accordance with its terms or its subsequent amendments. 

(e) Payments in respect of interest on and principal on the Notes shall be payable by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a Dollar
account maintained by the Holder or its nominee; provided that the Holder has provided wiring instructions to the Paying Agent on or before the related Record Date or, if wire transfer cannot be effected, by a Dollar check drawn on a
bank in the United States, or by a Dollar check mailed to the Holder at its address in the Notes Register. The Issuer expects that the Depository or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal or interest in respect of a Global Note held
by the Depository or its nominee, shall immediately credit the applicable Agent Members’ accounts with payments in amounts 

  
 -65- 












 
proportionate to the respective beneficial interests in such Global Note as shown on the records of the Depository or its nominee. The Issuer also expects that payments by Agent Members to owners
of beneficial interests in such Global Note held through Agent Members will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in the names of nominees for
such customers. Such payments will be the responsibility of the Agent Members. Upon final payment due on the Maturity of a Note, the Holder thereof shall present and surrender such Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Note Administrator or at
the office of the Paying Agent (or, to a foreign paying agent appointed by the Note Administrator outside of the United States if then required by applicable law, in the case of a Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in the
Regulation S Global Note) on or prior to such Maturity. None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator or the Paying Agent will have any responsibility or liability with respect to any records maintained by the Holder of any Note with
respect to the beneficial holders thereof or payments made thereby on account of beneficial interests held therein. In the case where any final payment of principal and interest is to be made on any Note (other than on the Stated Maturity Date
thereof) the Issuer or, upon Issuer Request, the Note Administrator, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, shall not more than thirty (30) nor fewer than five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is to be made,
mail to the Persons entitled thereto at their addresses appearing on the Notes Register, a notice which shall state the date on which such payment will be made and the amount of such payment and shall specify the place where such Notes may be
presented and surrendered for such payment. 
 (f) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.7(a) and (e), Holders of Notes as
of the Record Date in respect of a Payment Date shall be entitled to the interest accrued and payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments and principal payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments on such Payment Date. All such
payments that are mailed or wired and returned to the Paying Agent shall be held for payment as herein provided at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2 (or returned to the Trustee).

 (g) Interest on any Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Payment Date shall be paid to the Person
in whose name that Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest. 

(h) Payments of principal to Holders of the Notes of each Class shall be made in the proportion that the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of
the Notes of such Class registered in the name of each such Holder on such Record Date bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Notes of such Class on such Record Date. 

(i) Interest accrued with respect to the Notes shall be calculated as described in the applicable form of Note attached hereto. 

(j) All reductions in the principal amount of a Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of installments of principal made
on any Payment Date, Redemption Date or upon Maturity shall be binding upon all future Holders of such Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is
noted on such Note. 

  
 -66- 












 (k) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, the obligations of
the Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents are limited recourse obligations of the Issuer payable solely from the Collateral and following realization of the Collateral, all obligations of the Issuer and any
claims of the Noteholders, the Trustee or any other parties to any Transaction Documents shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of the Notes against any Officer,
director, employee, shareholder, limited partner or incorporator of the Issuer or any of its successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Notes or this Indenture. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not
(i) prevent recourse to the Collateral for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation
evidenced by the Notes or secured by this Indenture (to the extent it relates to the obligation to make payments on the Notes) until such Collateral have been realized, whereupon any outstanding indebtedness or obligation in respect of the Notes,
this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not limit the right of any Person to name the Issuer as a party
defendant in any Proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Indenture, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against
any such Person or entity. 
 (l) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7, each Note delivered
under this Indenture and upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights of unpaid interest and principal that were carried by such other Note. 

(m) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions with respect to payments of principal of and interest on the Notes (but subject to
Sections 2.7(f) and (i)), if the Notes have become or been declared due and payable following an Event of Default and such acceleration of Maturity and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled and the provisions of
Section 5.5 are not applicable, then payments of principal of and interest on such Notes shall be made in accordance with Section 5.7. 

Section 2.8 Persons Deemed Owners. 

The Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and any of their respective agents
may treat as the owner of a Note the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Notes Register on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest and other amounts on such Note and on any other
date for all other purposes whatsoever (whether or not such Note is overdue), and none of the Note Administrator, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or any of their respective agents shall be affected by notice to the
contrary; provided, however, that the Depository, or its nominee, shall be deemed the owner of the Global Notes, and owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes will not be considered the owners of any Notes for the purpose of
receiving notices. 

  
 -67- 












 Section 2.9 Cancellation. 

All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption, or deemed lost or stolen, shall, upon delivery to the
Notes Registrar, be promptly canceled by the Notes Registrar and may not be reissued or resold. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this Section 2.9, except as
expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Notes held by the Notes Registrar shall be destroyed or held by the Notes Registrar in accordance with its standard retention policy. Notes of the most senior Class Outstanding (and no other
Class of Notes) that are held by the Issuer or any of its respective Affiliates may be submitted to the Notes Registrar for cancellation at any time. 

Section 2.10 Global Notes; Definitive Notes; Temporary Notes. 

(a) Definitive Notes. Definitive Notes shall only be issued in the following limited circumstances: 

(i) at the discretion of the Issuer with respect to any Class of Notes; 

(ii) upon Transfer of Global Notes to an IAI or a QIB in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.5(e)(ii), (iii) or (vi); 
 (iii) if a holder of a Definitive Note wishes
at any time to exchange such Definitive Note for one or more Definitive Notes or transfer such Definitive Note to a transferee who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a Definitive Note in accordance with this
Section 2.10, such holder may effect such exchange or transfer upon receipt by the Notes Registrar of (A) a Holder’s Definitive Note properly endorsed for assignment to the transferee, and (B) duly completed
certificates in the form of Exhibit J-3, upon receipt of which the Notes Registrar shall then cancel such Definitive Note in accordance herewith, record the transfer in the Notes Register in accordance
with Section 2.5(a) and upon execution by the Issuer, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver one or more Definitive Notes bearing the same designation as the Definitive Note endorsed for transfer,
registered in the names specified in the assignment described in clause (A) above, in principal amounts designated by the transferee (the aggregate of such principal amounts being equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive
Note surrendered by the transferor); or 
 (iv) in the event that the Depository notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as Depository for a Global Note or if at any time such Depository ceases to be a “Clearing Agency” registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depository is not appointed by the Issuer within ninety (90) days
of such notice, the Global Notes deposited with the Depository pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof subject to the procedures and conditions set forth in this
Section 2.10. 
 (b) Any Global Note that is exchanged for a Definitive Note shall be surrendered by the
Depository to the Note Administrator’s Corporate Trust Office together with necessary instruction for the registration and delivery of a Definitive Note to the beneficial owners (or such owner’s nominee) holding the ownership interests in
such Global Note. Any such transfer shall be made, without charge, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, upon 

  
 -68- 












 
such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of the same Class and authorized denominations. Any Definitive Notes delivered in
exchange for an interest in a Global Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.5(f), bear the applicable legend set forth in Exhibits A-2, B-2, C-2, D-2, E-2,
E-4, E-6, F-2, F-4,
F-6, G-2, G-4, G-6,
H-2, H-4, H-6 and I-2, as applicable, and shall be subject to
the transfer restrictions referred to in such applicable legend. The Holder of each such registered individual Global Note may transfer such Global Note by surrendering it at the Corporate Trust Office of the Note Administrator, or at the office of
the Paying Agent. 
 (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(b) above, the registered Holder of a Global
Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. 

(d) [Reserved] 
 (e) In the
event of the occurrence of either of the events specified in Section 2.10(a) above, the Issuer shall promptly make available to the Notes Registrar a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes. 

Pending the preparation of Definitive Notes pursuant to this Section 2.10, the Issuer may execute and, upon Issuer
Order, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise reproduced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in
lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officers executing such Definitive Notes may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Definitive Notes.

 If temporary Definitive Notes are issued, the Issuer shall cause permanent Definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay.
The Definitive Notes shall be printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise reproduced, or provided by any combination thereof, or in any other manner permitted by the rules and regulations of any applicable notes exchange, all as determined by
the Officers executing such Definitive Notes. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the applicable temporary Definitive Notes at the office or agency maintained by
the Issuer for such purpose, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Definitive Note, the Issuer shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor the
same aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes. 

Section 2.11 U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of Notes and the Issuer. 

(a) The Issuer intends that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) the Notes (unless held by
Sub-REIT (or another disregarded entity wholly-owned by Sub-REIT or a subsequent REIT)) be treated as debt, (ii) 100% of any retained or repurchased Notes, the Retained
Notes and the Membership Interests be beneficially owned by the Retention Holder, and (iii) the 

  
 -69- 












 
Issuer be treated as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or other disregarded entity of a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Each prospective purchaser and any subsequent transferee of a Note or
any interest therein shall, by virtue of its purchase or other acquisition of such Note or interest therein, be deemed to have agreed to treat such Note in a manner consistent with the preceding sentence for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

(b) The Issuer shall account for the Notes and prepare any reports to Noteholders and tax authorities consistent with the intentions expressed
in Section 2.11(a) above. 
 (c) Each Holder of Notes agrees that by virtue of being a Holder it shall timely
furnish to the Issuer or its agent any completed U.S. federal income tax form or certification (such as IRS Form W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding and
Reporting (Individuals), IRS Form W-8BEN-E (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding and Reporting (Entities)) IRS Form W-8IMY (Certificate of Foreign Intermediary, Foreign Flow-Through Entity, or Certain U.S. Branches for United States Tax Withholding and Reporting), IRS Form W-9 (Request for
Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification), or IRS Form W-8ECI (Certificate of Foreign Person’s Claim that Income is Effectively Connected with the Conduct of a Trade or Business in the United
States) or any successors to such IRS forms) that the Issuer or its agent may reasonably request and shall update or replace such forms or certification in accordance with its terms or its subsequent amendments. Furthermore, Noteholders shall timely
furnish any information required pursuant to Section 2.7(d). 
 (d) The Issuer shall be responsible for all
calculations of original issue discount on the Notes, if any. 
 (e) Each prospective purchaser, any subsequent transferee, and each Holder
of a Note or any interest therein shall, by virtue of its purchase or other acquisition of such Note or interest therein, be deemed to agree (i) to provide accurate information and documentation that may be required for the Issuer, the Note
Administrator, the Trustee or the Paying Agent to comply with FATCA and (ii) that the Issuer, the Note Administrator, the Trustee or the Paying Agent may (1) provide such information and documentation and any other information concerning
its investment in such Notes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and any other relevant tax authority and (2) take any other actions necessary for the Issuer, the Note Administrator, the Trustee or the Paying Agent to comply with FATCA. 

(f) [Reserved] 
 (g) The
Retention Holder, by acceptance of any retained or repurchased Notes, the Retained Notes and the Membership Interests, agrees to take no action inconsistent with such treatment and, for so long as any Note is Outstanding, agrees not to sell,
transfer (whether by means of an actual transfer or a transfer of beneficial ownership for U.S. federal income tax purposes), convey, setover, pledge or encumber any retained or repurchased Notes, any Retained Notes and/or the Membership Interests,
except to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 2.5(o).

 Section 2.12 Authenticating Agents. 

Upon the request of the Issuer, the Note Administrator shall, and if the Note Administrator so chooses the Note Administrator may, pursuant to
this Indenture, appoint one (1) or more Authenticating Agents with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.4,
2.5, 2.6 and 8.5, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by such Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of
Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes by the Note Administrator. 

Any corporation or banking association into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or
any corporation or banking association resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the
successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation. Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by
giving written notice of resignation to the Note Administrator, the Trustee and the Issuer. The Note Administrator may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent,
the Trustee and the Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Note Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of such appointment to the Issuer. 

The Note Administrator agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent appointed by it from time to time reasonable compensation for its services,
and reimbursement for its reasonable expenses relating thereto and the Note Administrator shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to Section 6.7. The provisions of Sections 2.9, 6.4 and
6.5 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent. 
 Section 2.13 Forced Sale on Failure to Comply with Restrictions.

 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, any transfer of a Note or interest therein to a U.S. Person who
is determined not to have been both (i) either (A) a QIB or (B) an IAI and (ii) a Qualified Purchaser at the time of acquisition of the Note or interest therein, or any transfer of a Note or interest therein, or any purchase or
transfer of any Retained Offered Notes by a Plan or interest therein that could result in the Issuer being subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of any Similar Law or that could constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, in any case, shall be null and void and any such proposed transfer of which the Issuer, the Note Administrator or the Trustee shall
have written notice (which includes via electronic mail) may be disregarded by the Issuer, the Note Administrator and the Trustee for all purposes. 

(b) If the Issuer determines that any Holder of a Note has not satisfied the applicable requirement described in
Section 2.13(a) above (any such Person a “Non-Permitted Holder”), then the Issuer shall promptly after discovery that such Person is a
Non-Permitted Holder by the Issuer or a Responsible Officer of each of the Note Administrator and the Trustee (and 

  
 -71- 












 
notice by the Note Administrator, the Trustee (in the case of each of the Note Administrator and the Trustee, only if a Trust Officer has actual knowledge and makes such discovery)), send notice
to such Non-Permitted Holder demanding that such Non-Permitted Holder transfer its interest to a Person that is not a
Non-Permitted Holder within thirty (30) days (10 days in the case of a Non-Permitted Holder for ERISA-related reasons) of the date of such notice. If such Non-Permitted Holder fails to so transfer its Note or interest therein, the Issuer shall have the right, without further notice to the Non-Permitted Holder, to sell such Note
or interest therein to a purchaser selected by the Issuer that is not a Non-Permitted Holder on such terms as the Issuer may choose. The Issuer, or a third party acting on behalf of the Issuer, may select the
purchaser by soliciting one or more bids from one or more brokers or other market professionals that regularly deal in securities similar to the Note, and selling such Note to the highest such bidder. However, the Issuer may select a purchaser by
any other means determined by it in its sole discretion. The Holder of such Note, the Non-Permitted Holder and each other Person in the chain of title from the Holder to the
Non-Permitted Holder, by its acceptance of an interest in the Note, agrees to cooperate with the Issuer and the Note Administrator to effect such transfers. The proceeds of such sale, net of any commissions,
expenses and taxes due in connection with such sale shall be remitted to the Non-Permitted Holder. The terms and conditions of any sale under this Section 2.13(b) shall be determined
in the sole discretion of the Issuer, and the Issuer shall not be liable to any Person having an interest in the Note sold as a result of any such sale of exercise of such discretion. 

Section 2.14 No Gross Up. 

The Issuer shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to the Holders or beneficial owners of the Notes as a result of any
withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges. 

Section 2.15 Credit Risk Retention. 

The Sponsor shall timely deliver (or cause to be timely delivered) to the Trustee and the Note Administrator any notices contemplated by
Section 10.10(a)(vi). 
 Section 2.16 Exchangeable Notes; Exchange of MASCOT Notes. 

(a) At any time on or after the Initial MASCOT Note Issuance Date all or a portion of the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the
Class F Notes and the Class G Notes may be exchanged for proportionate interests in one or more classes of certain other Notes and vice versa (such Notes received in such an exchange, the “Exchanged Notes”). The
Exchangeable Notes may be exchanged by the Holders thereof for (1) a corresponding MASCOT P&I Note with the same principal balance as the Class D Note, the Class E Note, the Class F Note or the Class G Note, as
applicable, surrendered in the exchange but with a reduced Note Interest Rate, and (2) an MASCOT Interest Only Note that has a notional balance equal to the principal balance of the MASCOT P&I Note received in such exchange with a fixed
interest rate equal to such reduction in Note Interest Rate. Specifically, with respect to the exchange of the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class F Notes or the Class G Notes for corresponding MASCOT Notes, the per annum
interest rates payable on the MASCOT P&I Notes and the MASCOT Interest Only Notes shall be determined, on the date of such exchange, by the holder of the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class F Notes or the Class G
Notes, as applicable, surrendered in such exchange. The aggregate interest rates of the Exchanged Notes received in the exchange shall equal the aggregate interest rate of the Exchangeable Notes surrendered for exchange. The MASCOT Interest Only
Notes are not entitled to any payments of principal and shall have an Aggregate Outstanding Amount of zero. 

  
 -72- 












 (b) (i) With respect to the exchange of the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the
Class F Notes or the Class G Notes for corresponding MASCOT Notes, each of (1) the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the MASCOT P&I Note received in the exchange and (2) the Aggregate Outstanding Notional Amount of the MASCOT
Interest Only Notes received in the exchange shall equal the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class F Notes or the Class G Notes, as applicable, exchanged. The MASCOT Interest Only Notes are not entitled to any payments of principal and
have an Aggregate Outstanding Amount of zero. 
 (ii) The aggregate Note Interest Rates of the Exchanged Notes received in
the exchange must equal the aggregate Note Interest Rate of the Exchangeable Notes surrendered for exchange. 
 (c) Exchanges of the
Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class F Notes or the Class G Notes for MASCOT Notes and any subsequent exchange of such MASCOT Notes for the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class F Notes or the
Class G Notes may occur repeatedly. 
 (d) With respect to an exchange of some or all of the Class D Notes, the Class E
Notes, the Class F Notes or the Class G Notes, as applicable, the Holders of such MASCOT P&I Notes shall be entitled to exercise all the voting rights (including any rights as the Controlling Class) and objection rights that are
allocated to such exchanged the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class F Notes or the Class G Notes, as applicable, and the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of such MASCOT P&I Notes shall be used to determine if the
requisite percentage of Holders under this Indenture has voted, consented or otherwise given direction; provided that, in connection with any supplemental indenture that affects a Class of MASCOT Notes in a manner that is
materially different from the effect of such supplemental indenture on the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class F Notes or the Class G Notes, as applicable, the Holders of the applicable MASCOT Notes shall be entitled to
vote as a separate class. 
 (e) The Class D-X Notes, the
Class E-X Notes, the Class F-X Notes and the Class G-X Notes are interest only notes that receive interest
payments but do not receive principal payments. Interest on the MASCOT Interest Only Notes is calculated on a balance equal to the “Aggregate Outstanding Notional Amount,” which shall, as of any date, equal the Aggregate Outstanding Amount
on such date of the related MASCOT P&I Note. 
 (f) In order to effect an exchange of Exchangeable Notes, the Holder shall submit a duly
executed Officer’s Certificate in the form of Exhibit U to this Indenture to the Note Administrator no earlier than ten (10) Business Days before the proposed exchange date and no later than five (5) Business Days before the
proposed exchange date. Such Officer’s Certificate shall to be in writing, and may be by email to CREBondAdmin@wellsfargo.com. The Officer’s Certificate must be on the Holder’s letterhead and set forth the following information:
(i) the CUSIP number of each Exchangeable Note and Exchanged Note; (ii) the Aggregate Outstanding Amount and the Aggregate Outstanding Notional Amount, as applicable, of the Notes to be exchanged; (iii) the Holder’s DTC
participant number to be debited and credited; and (iv) the 

  
 -73- 












 
proposed exchange date. The exchange date with respect to any exchange may be any Business Day other than (1) the first or last Business Day of the month, (2) any Payment Date,
(3) any Record Date or (4) any day between a Record Date and the next Payment Date. Any such notice shall become irrevocable on the second Business Day before the proposed exchange date. The Holder must pay the Note Administrator a fee
equal to $5,000 for each exchange request and such fee must be received by the Note Administrator prior to the exchange date or such exchange shall not be effected. In addition, any Holder wishing to effect such an exchange must pay any other
expenses related to such exchange, including any fees charged by DTC. The Note Administrator shall make the first payment on any Exchanged Note received by a Holder in an exchange transaction on the Payment Date related to the next Record Date
following the effective date of such exchange.

(a) The Directing Holder shall be responsible for determining whether a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to any Benchmark.
The Directing Holder shall provide prompt written notice to the Issuer, the Advancing Agent, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Calculation Agent (if different from the Note Administrator), the Noteholders
and the Rating Agencies of its determination that a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred. In addition, not less than thirty (30) days prior to any Benchmark Replacement Date, the Directing Holder shall provide prompt written notice to the
Issuer, the Advancing Agent, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Calculation Agent (if different from the Note Administrator), the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies of such Benchmark Replacement Date and
applicable Benchmark Replacement. 
 (b) After a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, any
Benchmark and the related Benchmark Determination Date shall be replaced for all purposes of this Indenture by the Benchmark Replacement and Benchmark Determination Date determined by the Directing Holder. Notwithstanding the occurrence of a
Benchmark Transition Event, amounts payable on the Notes shall be determined with respect to the then-current Benchmark until the occurrence of the related Benchmark Replacement Date. 

(c) In connection with the occurrence of any Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, and from time to time
thereafter, the Directing Holder may direct the parties hereto by Issuer Order to enter into a supplemental indenture in accordance with Section 8.1(b)(iv) to make such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, if any, as
the Directing Holder determines may be necessary or desirable to administer, implement or adopt the applicable Benchmark or the Benchmark Replacement. 

(d) Any determination, implementation, adoption, decision, proposal or election that may be made by the Directing Holder with respect to any
Benchmark Transition Event, Benchmark Replacement Date, Benchmark Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Adjustment or Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, including any determination with respect to a tenor, observation period, rate or adjustment
or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and
the Noteholders absent manifest error, may be made in the sole discretion of the Directing Holder and may be relied upon by the Issuer, the Note Administrator, the Trustee, the Calculation Agent and the Servicer without investigation. 

  
 -74- 












 (e) The Directing Holder may (at the Directing Holder’s expense) assign to another
entity (other than the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Calculation Agent or the Custodian) any or all of the Directing Holder’s rights to make determinations with respect to the Benchmark Replacement, but only so long as the Directing
Holder has provided advance notice of such assignment to the Issuer, the Advancing Agent, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Calculation Agent (if different from the Note Administrator), the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies.
Any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such assignee in discharging its obligations, and any indemnification amounts or liquidated damages payable to such
assignee will be payable as Company Administrative Expenses in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Any fees of such assignee will be payable by the Directing Holder. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the Directing Holder may send any notices with respect to any Benchmark
Transition Event, Benchmark Replacement Date, Benchmark Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes or any other determination or selection made under this Section 2.17, by email
(or other electronic communication). 
 (g) The Directing Holder shall not have any liability for the determination or selection with
respect to any Benchmark Transition Event, Benchmark Replacement Date, Benchmark Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes or any other determination or selection made under this
Section 2.17 (including, without limitation, whether the conditions for such determination or selection have been satisfied). 

Section 2.18 Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Accounting Applicable to
Sub-REIT’s Treatment of the Class H Notes. 
 (a) Solely
for certain U.S. federal income tax accounting applicable to Sub-REIT, the Class H Notes shall be deemed to be subdivided into each of (i) the “Class H-P Subcomponent”, (ii) the “Class H-X Subcomponent” and the (iii) “Class H-R Subcomponent” (collectively, the “Class H Subcomponents”). 

(b) Deemed Payments to Class H Subcomponents. The Class H-P
Subcomponent shall have a subcomponent note balance from time to time equal to the Aggregate Outstanding Portfolio Balance minus the sum of: (i) the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Classes of Notes (other than the Class H Notes) and
(ii) the subcomponent note balances, if any, of the sum of the Class H-X Subcomponent and the Class H-R Subcomponent. The
Class H-P Subcomponent will not be entitled to receive interest. 
 The Class H-X Subcomponent shall have a subcomponent notional balance from time to time equal to the Aggregate Outstanding Portfolio Balance minus the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Classes of Notes (other
than the Class H Notes) (the “Class H-X Notional Amount”). The subcomponent note rate on the Class H-X Subcomponent will
equal the difference between (1) the Collateral Net WAC and (2) the total interest accrued on all 

  
 -75- 












 
Classes of Notes (other than the Class H Notes) with respect to such Payment Date, such aggregate expressed as an annualized rate at which interest would have to accrue on the Class H-X Notional Amount on an actual/360 basis in order to produce the aggregate amount of interest described in clause (2) to accrue on the Class H-X
Notional Amount. Such subcomponent note rate shall be applied to the Class H-X Notional Amount. 

The Class H-R Subcomponent shall be entitled to any amount remaining after all payments to the Class H-P Subcomponent and the Class H-X Subcomponent have been made in accordance with the priority of payments described herein. 

(i) Interest Proceeds. On each Payment Date, Interest Proceeds shall be deemed paid in the following order of priority:

 (1) to the Class H-X Subcomponent, to the extent of accrued interest thereon;
and 
 (2) to the Class H-R Subcomponent, any remaining Interest Proceeds. 

(ii) Principal Proceeds. On each Payment Date, Principal Proceeds shall be deemed paid in the following order of
priority: 
 (1) to the Class H-P Subcomponent, until the subcomponent note
balance of the Class H-P Subcomponent has been reduced to zero; and 
 (2) to
the Class H-R Subcomponent, any remaining Principal Proceeds. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, the
Note Administrator shall make computations, distributions and reports with respect to the Class H Notes without regard to the Class H Subcomponents and the payments described in this Section 2.18. Furthermore, the
Note Administrator shall not be responsible for any tax filings or reporting in respect of the Class H Notes.

(C) with respect to the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent and the Trustee, any amount due and payable for
unreimbursed Interest Advances and Reimbursement Interest; and 
 (D) any Company Administrative Expense due and payable; and

 (ii) the Trustee has received notice that all Events of Default, other than the
non-payment of the interest and principal on the Notes that have become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured and a Majority of the Controlling Class, by written notice to the Trustee, has agreed
with such notice (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or waived as provided in Section 5.14. 

At any such time that the Trustee, subject to Section 5.2(b), shall rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences as permitted hereinabove, the Collateral shall be preserved in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.5 with respect to the Event of Default that gave rise to such declaration; provided,
however, that if such preservation of the Collateral is rescinded pursuant to Section 5.5, the Notes may be accelerated pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 5.2, notwithstanding
any previous rescission and annulment of a declaration of acceleration pursuant to this paragraph. 
 No such rescission shall affect any
subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 -93- 












 (c) Subject to Sections 5.4 and 5.5, a Majority of the Controlling
Class shall have the right to direct the Trustee in the conduct of any Proceedings for any remedy available to the Trustee or in the sale of any or all of the Collateral; provided that (i) such direction will not conflict with any
rule of law or this Indenture; (ii) the Trustee may take any other action not inconsistent with such direction; (iii) the Trustee has received security or indemnity satisfactory to it; and (iv) any direction to undertake a sale of the
Collateral may be made only as described in Section 5.17. The Trustee shall be entitled to refuse to take any action absent such direction. 

(d) As security for the payment by the Issuer of the compensation and expenses of the Trustee, the Note Administrator, and any sums the
Trustee or Note Administrator shall be entitled to receive as indemnification by the Issuer, the Issuer hereby grants the Trustee a lien on the Collateral, which lien is senior to the lien of the Holders of the Secured Notes. The Trustee’s lien
shall be subject to the Priority of Payments and exercisable by the Trustee only if the Notes have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default and such acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled. 

(e) A Majority of each Class of Notes may, prior to the time a judgment or decree for the payment of amounts due has been obtained by the
Trustee, waive any past Default on behalf of the holders of all the Notes and its consequences in accordance with Section 5.14.

interest rate and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Note Administrator, the Trustee and
such Noteholder and their respective agents and counsel. 
 If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee,

Issuer, or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the amounts adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the Collateral. 

  
 -95- 












 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such Proceedings (x) as directed by a Majority of the Controlling Class or (y) in the absence of direction by a Majority of the Controlling Class, as determined by the Trustee
acting in good faith; provided that (a) such direction must not conflict with any rule of law or with any express provision of this Indenture, (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not
inconsistent with such direction, (c) the Trustee has been provided with security or indemnity satisfactory to it, and (d) notwithstanding the foregoing, any direction to the Trustee to undertake a sale of Collateral may be given only in
accordance with the preceding paragraph, in connection with any sale and liquidation of all or a portion of the Collateral, the preceding sentence, and, in all cases, the applicable provisions of this Indenture. Such Proceedings shall be used for
the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. Any
direction to the Trustee to undertake a sale of Collateral shall be forwarded to the Special Servicer, and the Special Servicer shall conduct any such sale in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement. 

In the case where (x) there shall be pending Proceedings relative to the Issuer under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, (y) a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property, or
(z) there shall be any other comparable Proceedings relative to the Issuer, or the creditors or property of the Issuer, regardless of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration, or
otherwise and regardless of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise: 

(i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes
and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents,
attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Noteholders allowed in any
Proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor; 

(ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Noteholders in any election of a trustee or
a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or of a Person performing similar functions in comparable Proceedings; and 

(iii) to collect and receive (or cause the Note Administrator to collect and receive) any amounts or other property payable to
or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute (or cause the Note Administrator to distribute) all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Trustee on their behalf; the Secured Parties, and any trustee,
receiver or liquidator, custodian or other similar official is hereby 

  
 -96- 












 
authorized by each of the Noteholders to make payments to the Trustee (or the Note Administrator on its behalf), and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of payments
directly to the Noteholders, to pay to the Trustee and the Note Administrator such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee and the Note Administrator, each predecessor trustee and note administrator, and their
respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Backup Advancing Agent and each predecessor backup advancing agent. 

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize, consent to, vote for, accept or adopt, on behalf of any
Noteholder, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such Proceeding except, as
aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person. 
 All rights of action and of asserting claims under this
Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any action or Proceedings instituted by the Trustee
shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.7. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Collateral
or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.3 unless the conditions specified in Section 5.5(a) are met and any sale of Collateral contemplated to be conducted by the
Trustee under this Indenture shall be effected by the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, and the Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for or in connection with any such sale. 

Section 5.4 Remedies. 

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Notes have been declared due and payable and such declaration and its
consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Issuer agrees that the Trustee, or, with respect to any sale of any Collateral Interests, the Special Servicer, may, after notice to the Note Administrator and the Noteholders, and shall, upon
direction by a Majority of the Controlling Class, to the extent permitted by applicable law, exercise one or more of the following rights, privileges and remedies: 

(i) institute Proceedings for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or otherwise payable under this Indenture
(whether by declaration or otherwise), enforce any judgment obtained and collect from the Collateral any amounts adjudged due; 

(ii) sell all or a portion of the Collateral or rights of interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and
conducted in any manner permitted by law and in accordance with Section 5.17 (provided that any such sale shall be conducted by the Special Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement); 

(iii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the
Collateral; 

  
 -97- 












 (iv) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any
other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder; and 
 (v) exercise
any other rights and remedies that may be available at law or in equity; 
 provided, however, that no sale or liquidation of the Collateral
or institution of Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.4 may be effected unless either of the conditions specified in Section 5.5(a) are met. 

The Issuer shall, at the Issuer’s expense, upon request of the Trustee or the Special Servicer, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an
Independent investment banking firm as to the feasibility of any action proposed to be taken in accordance with this Section 5.4 and as to the sufficiency of the proceeds and other amounts expected to be received with
respect to the Collateral to make the required payments of principal of and interest on the Notes and other amounts payable hereunder, which opinion shall be conclusive evidence as to such feasibility or sufficiency. 

(b) If an Event of Default as described in Section 5.1(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may,
and at the request of the Holders of not less than 25% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall, institute a Proceeding solely to compel performance of the covenant or agreement or to cure the representation or
warranty, the breach of which gave rise to the Event of Default under such Section, and enforce any equitable decree or order arising from such Proceeding. 

(c) Upon any Sale in connection with an Event of Default, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial
proceedings, any Noteholder, the Servicer or the Special Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates may bid for and purchase the Collateral or any part thereof and, upon compliance with the terms of Sale, may hold, retain, possess or dispose of
such property in its or their own absolute right without accountability; and any purchaser at any such Sale may, in paying the purchase money, turn in any of the Notes in lieu of Cash equal to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net
proceeds of such sale, be payable on the Notes so turned in by such Holder (taking into account the Class of such Notes). Such Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall either be returned to
the Holders thereof after proper notation has been made thereon to show partial payment or a new note shall be delivered to the Holders reflecting the reduced interest thereon. 

Upon any Sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings, the receipt of the Note Administrator
or of the Officer making a sale under judicial proceedings shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale for its or their purchase money and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obliged to see to the application
thereof. 
 Any such Sale, whether under any power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings, shall (x) bind the
Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator and the Noteholders, shall operate to divest all right, title and interest whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of each of them in and to the property sold and (y) be a perpetual bar, both at law
and in equity, against each of them and their successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming through or under them. 

  
 -98- 












 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document,
none of the Advancing Agent, the Trustee, the Note Administrator or any other Secured Party, any other party to any Transaction Document, the Holder of the Notes and the holders of the equity in the Issuer or third party beneficiary of this
Indenture may, prior to the date which is one year and one day, or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect after the payment in full of all Notes, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Issuer or
any Permitted Subsidiary, any petition for bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, liquidation or other similar proceedings under federal or State bankruptcy or similar laws of any jurisdiction. Nothing in this
Section 5.4 shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Advancing Agent, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, or any other Secured Party or any other party to any Transaction Document (i) from taking any action prior to
the expiration of the aforementioned one year and one day period, or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect in (A) any case or proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by the Issuer or (B) any involuntary insolvency
proceeding filed or commenced by a Person other than the Trustee, the Note Administrator or any other Secured Party or any other party to any Transaction Document, or (ii) from commencing against the Issuer or any of its properties any legal
action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceeding. 
 Section 5.5
Preservation of Collateral. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing when any of the Notes are Outstanding, the Trustee and the Note Administrator, as applicable, shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted or required under this Indenture) retain the Collateral securing the Secured Notes, collect and
cause the collection of the proceeds thereof and make and apply all payments and deposits and maintain all accounts in respect of the Collateral and the Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the provisions of Articles 10,
12 and 13 and shall not sell or liquidate the Collateral, unless either: 
 (i) the Note Administrator,
pursuant to Section 5.5(c), determines (based upon information delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture) that the anticipated proceeds of a sale or liquidation of the Collateral (after deducting the reasonable
expenses of such sale or liquidation) would be sufficient to discharge in full the amounts then due and unpaid on the Notes, Company Administrative Expenses due and payable pursuant to the Priority of Payments and amounts due and payable to the
Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent and the Trustee, in respect of unreimbursed Interest Advances and Reimbursement Interest, for principal and interest, and, upon receipt of information from Persons to whom fees and expenses are payable,
all other amounts payable prior to payment of principal on the Notes due and payable pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(iii) and the holders of a Majority of the Controlling Class agrees with such determination; or 

(ii) a Supermajority of each Class of Notes (each voting as a separate Class and excluding any Notes held by the
Seller or any of its affiliates) directs, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the sale and liquidation of all or a portion of the Collateral. 

  
 -99- 












 In the event of a sale of all or a portion of the Collateral pursuant to clause (ii) above, the
Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee shall sell that portion of the Collateral identified by the requisite Noteholders and all proceeds of such sale shall be remitted to the Note Administrator for distribution in the order set forth in
Section 11.1(a). The Note Administrator shall give written notice of the retention of the Collateral by the Custodian to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Rating
Agencies. So long as such Event of Default is continuing, any such retention pursuant to this Section 5.5(a) may be rescinded at any time when the conditions specified in clause (i) or (ii) above exist.

 (b) Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require a sale of the Collateral securing the
Secured Notes if the conditions set forth in Section 5.5(a) are not satisfied. Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to preserve the Collateral securing the
Secured Notes if prohibited by applicable law. 
 (c) In determining whether the condition specified in
Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, the Special Servicer shall obtain bid prices with respect to each Collateral Interest from two dealers at the time making a market in such Collateral Interests that, at that time, engage in the
trading, origination or securitization of whole loans or participations similar to the Collateral Interests (or, if only one such dealer can be engaged, then the Special Servicer shall obtain a bid price from such dealer or, if no such dealer can be
engaged, from a pricing service). The Special Servicer shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of the lowest of such bid prices for each such Collateral Interest and provide the Trustee and the Note Administrator
with the results thereof. For the purposes of determining issues relating to the market value of any Collateral Interest and the execution of a sale or other liquidation thereof, the Special Servicer may, but need not, retain at the expense of the
Issuer and rely on an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm of national reputation or other appropriate advisors (the cost of which shall be payable as a Company Administrative Expense) in connection with a determination as to whether
the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists. 
 The Note Administrator shall promptly deliver to the
Noteholders and the Servicer, and the Note Administrator shall post to the Note Administrator’s Website, a report stating the results of any determination required to be made pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i). 

Section 5.6 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or under any of the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceeding relating thereto, and any such action or Proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust. Any recovery of
judgment in respect of the Notes shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.7. 
 In any Proceedings brought by
the Trustee (and in any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) in respect of the Notes, the Trustee shall be deemed to represent all the Holders of the Notes. 

  
 -100- 












 Section 5.7 Application of Amounts Collected. 

Any amounts collected by the Note Administrator with respect to the Notes pursuant to this Article 5 and any amounts
that may then be held or thereafter received by the Note Administrator with respect to the Notes hereunder shall be applied subject to Section 13.1 and in accordance with the Priority of Payments set forth in
Section 11.1(a)(iii), at the date or dates fixed by the Note Administrator. 
 Section 5.8 Limitation on
Suits. 
 No Holder of any Notes shall have any right to institute any Proceedings (the right of a Noteholder to institute any
proceeding with respect to this Indenture or the Notes is subject to any non-petition covenants set forth in this Indenture or the Notes), judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or the Notes, or
for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (a) such Holder has previously given to the
Trustee written notice of an Event of Default; 
 (b) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.9, the Holders of
at least 25% of the then Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute Proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder and such Holders
have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

(c) the Trustee for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such Proceeding; and

 (d) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such
30-day period by a Majority of the Controlling Class; it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture or the Notes to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes of the same Class or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of the Notes of the same
Class or to enforce any right under this Indenture or the Notes, except in the manner herein or therein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders of Notes of the same Class subject to and in accordance with
Section 13.1 and the Priority of Payments. 
 In the event the Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent
requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of the Controlling Class, each representing less than a Majority of the Controlling Class, the Trustee shall not be required to take any action until it shall have received the direction of a
Majority of the Controlling Class. 
 Section 5.9 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest. 

  
 -101- 












 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture (except for
Section 2.7(e) and 2.7(n)), the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Note as such principal, interest and other
amounts become due and payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments and Section 13.1, and, subject to the provisions of Sections 5.4 and 5.8 to institute Proceedings for the enforcement of any such
payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder; provided, however, that the right of such Holder to institute proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment shall not be subject to the 25%
threshold requirement set forth in Section 5.8(b). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time when the
Retention Holder holds 100% of the Class H Notes, the Retention Holder may designate all or any portion of the available funds that would otherwise be distributed by the Paying Agent for payment on the Class H Notes, for deposit into the
Payment Account as a contribution to the Issuer. Any such amounts paid to the Issuer as a contribution shall be deemed for all purposes as having been paid by the Paying Agent pursuant to the Priority of Payments in this Indenture. 

Section 5.10 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has
been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Noteholder, then (and in every such case) the Issuer, the Trustee, and the Noteholder shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding,
be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 5.11 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, the Note Administrator or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive
of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The
assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

Section 5.12 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any
such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein or a waiver of a subsequent Event of Default. Every right and remedy given by this Article 5 or by law to the Trustee, or
to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, or by the Noteholders, as the case may be. 

Section 5.13 Control by the Controlling Class. 

Subject to Sections 5.2(a) and (b), but notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing when any of the Notes are Outstanding, a Majority of the Controlling Class shall have the right to cause the institution of, and direct the time, method and place of conducting, any Proceeding for any remedy available
to the Trustee and for exercising any trust, right, remedy or power conferred on the Trustee in respect of the Notes; provided that: 

(a) such direction shall not conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture; 

  
 -102- 












 (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not
inconsistent with such direction; provided, however, that, subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability (unless the Trustee has received
indemnity satisfactory to it against such liability as set forth below); 
 (c) the Trustee shall have been provided with indemnity
satisfactory to it; and 
 (d) notwithstanding the foregoing, any direction to the Trustee to undertake a Sale of the Collateral shall be
performed by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee, and must satisfy the requirements of Section 5.5. 

Section 5.14 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

Prior to the time a judgment or decree for payment of the amounts due has been obtained by the Trustee, as provided in this
Article 5, a Majority of each and every Class of Notes (voting as a separate Class) may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, waive any past Default in respect of the Notes and its consequences, except a Default:

 (a) in the payment of principal of any Note; 

(b) in the payment of interest in respect of the Controlling Class; 

(c) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that, under Section 8.2, cannot be modified or amended without the
waiver or consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note adversely affected thereby; or 
 (d) in respect of any right, covenant or
provision hereof for the individual protection or benefit of the Trustee or the Note Administrator, without the Trustee’s or the Note Administrator’s express written consent thereto, as applicable. 

In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their respective former positions
and rights hereunder, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 
 Upon any
such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any
right consequent thereto. Any such waiver shall be effectuated upon receipt by the Trustee and the Note Administrator of a written waiver by such Majority of each Class of Notes.

 Section 5.15 Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may
in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.15 shall not apply to any suit instituted by (x) the Trustee, (y) any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class or (z) any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable hereunder on or after the
Stated Maturity Date (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the applicable Redemption Date). 
 Section 5.16 Waiver of Stay or
Extension Laws. 
 The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead or in
any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force (including but not limited to filing a voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and
by the voluntary commencement of a proceeding or the filing of a petition seeking winding up, liquidation, reorganization or other relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar
laws now or hereafter in effect), which may affect the covenants, the performance of or any remedies under this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law,
and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

Section 5.17 Sale of Collateral. 

(a) The power to effect any sale (a “Sale”) of any portion of the Collateral pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 5.5
shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of such Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until all amounts secured by the Collateral shall have been paid or if there are insufficient proceeds to pay such
amount until the entire Collateral shall have been sold. The Special Servicer may, upon notice to the Noteholders, and shall, upon direction of a Majority of the Controlling Class, from time to time postpone any Sale by public announcement made at
the time and place of such Sale; provided, however, that if the Sale is rescheduled for a date more than three (3) Business Days after the date of the determination by the Special Servicer pursuant to
Section 5.5(a)(i), such Sale shall not occur unless and until the Special Servicer has again made the determination required by Section 5.5(a)(i). The Trustee hereby expressly waives its rights to
any amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale; provided that the Special Servicer shall be authorized to deduct the reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by it, or by the Trustee or the Note Administrator in connection
with such Sale from the proceeds thereof notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7. 

  
 -104- 












 (b) The Notes need not be produced in order to complete any such Sale, or in order for the
net proceeds of such Sale to be credited against amounts owing on the Notes. 
 (c) The Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate
instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof, which, in the case of any Collateral Interests, shall be upon request and delivery of any such instruments by the Special
Servicer. In addition, the Special Servicer, with respect to Collateral Interests, and the Trustee, with respect to any other Collateral, is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney in fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its
interest in any portion of the Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale. No purchaser or transferee at such a Sale shall be bound to ascertain the Trustee’s or Special Servicer’s
authority, to inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or to see to the application of any amounts. 
 (d) In the event of
any Sale of the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.4 or 5.5, payments shall be made in the order and priority set forth in Section 11.1(a) in the same manner as if the Notes had been
accelerated. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any sale by the Trustee of any portion of the Collateral shall be
executed by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Issuer, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability therefor. 

Section 5.18 Action on the Notes. 

The Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the application for or
obtaining of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Trustee against the
Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral or upon any of the Collateral of the Issuer. 

ARTICLE 6 
 THE TRUSTEE
AND NOTE ADMINISTRATOR 
 Section 6.1 Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 

(a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

(i) each of the Trustee and the Note Administrator undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are set forth in
this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee or the Note Administrator; and any permissive right of the Trustee or the Note Administrator contained herein shall not be construed as a
duty; and 
 (ii) in the absence of manifest error, or bad faith on its part, each of the Note Administrator and the Trustee
may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and 

  
 -105- 












 
the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and the Note Administrator, as the case may be, and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture; provided, however, that in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee or the Note Administrator, the Trustee and the Note
Administrator shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they substantially conform to the requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly notify the party delivering the same if such certificate or opinion does not
conform. If a corrected form shall not have been delivered to the Trustee or the Note Administrator within 15 days after such notice from the Trustee or the Note Administrator, the Trustee or the Note Administrator, as applicable, shall notify the
party providing such instrument and requesting the correction thereof. 
 (b) In case an Event of Default actually known to a Trust Officer
of the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from a Majority of the Controlling Class (or other Noteholders to the extent provided in Article 5 hereof),
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs. 

(c) If, in performing its duties under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Note Administrator is required to decide between alternative courses
of action, the Trustee and the Note Administrator may request written instructions from, prior to an Event of Default, the Directing Holder, and after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Controlling Class, as to courses of action
desired by it. If the Trustee and the Note Administrator does not receive such instructions within three (3) Business Days after it has requested them, it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action. The Trustee
and the Note Administrator shall act in accordance with instructions received after such three (3) Business Day period except to the extent it has already taken, or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions. The
Trustee and the Note Administrator shall be entitled to request and rely on the advice of legal counsel and Independent accountants in performing its duties hereunder and be deemed to have acted in good faith and shall not be subject to any
liability if it acts in accordance with such advice. 
 (d) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the
Note Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that neither the Trustee nor the Note Administrator shall be liable: 

(i) for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it shall be proven that it was negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts; or 
 (ii) with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the direction of the Issuer, the Directing Holder, and/or a Majority of the Controlling Class relating to the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Note Administrator
in respect of any Note or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee or the Note Administrator under this Indenture. 

  
 -106- 












 (e) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee or the Note Administrator to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing
that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it unless such risk or liability relates to its ordinary services under this Indenture, except where this Indenture provides otherwise.

 (f) Neither the Trustee nor the Note Administrator shall be liable to the Noteholders for any action taken or omitted by it at the
direction of the Issuer, the Directing Holder, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Controlling Class, the Trustee (in the case of the Note Administrator), the Note Administrator (in the case of the Trustee) and/or a
Noteholder under circumstances in which such direction is required or permitted by the terms of this Indenture. 
 (g) Neither the Trustee
nor the Note Administrator shall have any obligations to confirm the compliance by the Issuer, the UK Retention Holder or the Retention Holder with the Credit Risk Retention Rules or the UK Risk Retention Letter. 

(h) Neither the Trustee nor the Note Administrator shall have any liability or responsibility for the determination or selection of an
alternative or successor base rate to the Benchmark (including, without limitation, whether the conditions for the designation of such rate have been satisfied). 

(i) For all purposes under this Indenture, neither the Trustee nor the Note Administrator shall be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any
Event of Default, unless a Trust Officer of either the Trustee or the Note Administrator, as applicable, has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default or Default is received by the
Trustee or the Note Administrator, as applicable at the respective Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. For purposes of determining the Trustee’s and Note Administrator’s responsibility and
liability hereunder, whenever reference is made in this Indenture to such an Event of Default or a Default, such reference shall be construed to refer only to such an Event of Default or Default of which the Trustee or Note Administrator, as
applicable, is deemed to have notice as described in this Section 6.1. 
 (j) The Trustee and the Note
Administrator shall, upon reasonable prior written notice, permit the Issuer and its designees, during its normal business hours, to review all books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Trustee relating to the Notes and to make
copies and extracts therefrom (the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in making any such copies or extracts to be reimbursed to the Trustee or the Note
Administrator, as applicable, by such Person). 
 (k) The Note Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon the notices
provided by the Directing Holder facilitating or specifying the Benchmark Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Date, Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and such other administrative procedures with respect to the calculation of any Benchmark
Replacement. Further, to the extent the Note Administrator in its capacity as Calculation Agent is unable to calculate the Benchmark Replacement based on the methodology chosen by the Directing Holder, then the Directing Holder shall provide to the
Calculation Agent, on a monthly basis, the rate calculated using the Benchmark Replacement. 

  
 -107- 












 (l) None of the Trustee, Note Administrator, Paying Agent or Calculation Agent shall be

any Benchmark Transition Event or Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) to select or designate any Benchmark Replacement or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate have been
satisfied, or (iii) to select or designate any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes are necessary or
advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing. None of the Trustee, Note Administrator, Paying Agent, nor Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this
Indenture as a result of the unavailability of Term SOFR (or other applicable Benchmark) and absence of a designated replacement Benchmark, including as a result of any inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction
party, including without limitation the Directing Holder, in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of this Indenture and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. The
Calculation Agent shall, in respect of any Determination Date, have no liability for the application of Term SOFR as determined on the previous Determination Date if so required under the definition of Term SOFR. None of the Trustee, Note
Administrator, Paying Agent or Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the actions or omissions of the Directing Holder, or any failure or delay in the performance of its duties or obligations, nor shall they be under any obligation to
oversee or monitor its performance; and each of the Trustee, Note Administrator, Paying Agent or Calculation Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon, any determination made, and any instruction, notice, officer certificate, or other
instrument or information provided, by the Directing Holder, without independent verification, investigation or inquiry of any kind by the Trustee, Note Administrator, Paying Agent or Calculation Agent. 

(m) Upon written request, the Trustee and the Note Administrator shall provide to the Issuer, the Placement Agents or any agent thereof any
information specified by such parties regarding the Holders of the Notes and payments on the Notes that is reasonably available to the Trustee or the Note Administrator, as the case may be, and may be necessary for compliance with FATCA, subject in
all cases to confidentiality provisions. 
 (n) For the avoidance of doubt, the Note Administrator will have no responsibility for the
preparation of any tax returns or related reports on behalf of or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Noteholder, or the calculation of any original issue discount on the Notes. 

Section 6.2 Notice of Default. 

Promptly (and in no event later than three (3) Business Days) after the occurrence of any Default actually known to a Trust Officer of
the Trustee or after any declaration of acceleration has been made or delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.2, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to the 17g-5 Information
Provider and to the Note Administrator (who shall post such notice the Note Administrator’s Website) and the Note Administrator shall deliver to all Holders of Notes as their names and addresses appear on the Notes Register, notice of such
Default, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived.

connection, in any instance;

 The Trustee and Note Administrator shall receive amounts pursuant to this
Section 6.7 and Section 11.1(a) only to the extent that such payment is made in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the failure to pay such amounts to the Trustee and Note Administrator

shall not have received amounts due to it hereunder; provided that the Trustee and Note Administrator shall not be required to expend any funds or incur any expenses unless reimbursement therefor is reasonably assured to it. No

(a) No resignation or removal of the Note Administrator or the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Note Administrator or Trustee, as
applicable, pursuant to this Article 6 shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by such successor Note Administrator or Trustee under Section 6.10. 

(b) Each of the Trustee and the Note Administrator may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, the Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Noteholders, the Note Administrator (in the case of the Trustee), the Trustee (in the case of the Note Administrator), and the Rating Agencies. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Issuer shall
promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees, or a successor Note Administrator, as the case may be, by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by an Authorized Officer of the Issuer, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Note
Administrator or the Trustee so resigning and one copy to the successor Note Administrator, Trustee or Trustees, together with a copy to each Noteholder, the Servicer, the parties hereto and the Rating Agencies; provided that such
successor Note Administrator and Trustee shall be appointed only upon the written consent of a Majority of the Notes or, at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor Note Administrator and Trustee
has been appointed pursuant to Section 6.10, by Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class. If no successor Note Administrator and Trustee shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee or
Note Administrator shall not have been delivered to the Trustee or the Note Administrator within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or Note Administrator, as the case may be, the Controlling Class of
Notes or any Holder of a Note, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or a successor Note Administrator, as the case may be and in the case
of such a petition by the Trustee or the Note Administrator, at the expense of the Issuer. No resignation or removal of the Note Administrator or the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Note Administrator or Trustee will become effective until
the acceptance of appointment by the successor Note Administrator or Trustee, as applicable. To the extent the Trustee or Note Administrator is removed without cause, the expenses incurred in connection with transferring such party’s
responsibilities hereunder shall be reimbursed by the Issuer. 
 (c) The Note Administrator and Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of
a Supermajority of the Notes or when a successor Trustee has been appointed pursuant to Section 6.10, by Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class, in each case, upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written
notice delivered to the parties hereto. If no successor Note Administrator and Trustee shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee or Note Administrator shall not have been delivered to the Trustee or the Note
Administrator within 30 days after the giving of such notice of removal, the removed Trustee or Note Administrator, as the case may be, may, at the expense of the Issuer, petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor.


  
 -115- 












 (d) If at any time: 

(i) the Trustee or the Note Administrator shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.8 and shall fail
to resign after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any Holder; or 
 (ii) the Trustee or the Note Administrator
shall become incapable of acting or there shall be instituted any proceeding pursuant to which it could be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or the Note Administrator or of its respective property shall be
appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the Note Administrator or of its respective property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; 

then, in any such case (subject to Section 6.9(a)), (a) the Issuer, by Issuer Order, may remove the Trustee or the Note
Administrator, as applicable, or (b) subject to Section 5.15, a Majority of the Controlling Class or any Holder may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee or the Note Administrator, as the case may be, and the appointment of a successor thereto. 

(e) If the Trustee or the Note Administrator shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office
of the Trustee or the Note Administrator for any reason, the Issuer, by Issuer Order, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Note Administrator, as applicable, and the successor Trustee or Note Administrator so appointed shall, forthwith upon
its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee or the successor Note Administrator, as the case may be. If the Issuer shall fail to appoint a successor Trustee or Note Administrator within 30 days after such resignation, removal or
incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee or Note Administrator may be appointed by Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class delivered to the Servicer and the parties hereto, including the retiring Trustee or the
retiring Note Administrator, as the case may be, and the successor Trustee or Note Administrator so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee or Note Administrator, as applicable, and supersede
any successor Trustee or Note Administrator proposed by the Issuer. If no successor Trustee or Note Administrator shall have been so appointed by the Issuer or a Majority of the Controlling Class and shall have accepted appointment in the
manner hereinafter provided, subject to Section 5.15, the Controlling Class or any Holder may, on behalf of itself or himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee or Note Administrator. 
 (f) The Issuer shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of
the Trustee or Note Administrator and each appointment of a successor Trustee or Note Administrator by mailing written notice of such event by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Rating Agencies, the Servicer, the parties hereto, and to the
Holders of the Notes as their names and addresses appear in the Notes Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee or Note Administrator, as the case may be, and the address of its respective Corporate Trust Office. If the
Issuer fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee or Note Administrator, the successor Trustee or Note Administrator shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Issuer. 

  
 -116- 












 (g) The resignation or removal of the Note Administrator in any capacity in which it is
serving hereunder, including Note Administrator, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent, Calculation Agent, Transfer Agent, Custodian, Securities Intermediary, Backup Advancing Agent and Notes Registrar, shall be deemed a resignation or removal, as
applicable, in each of the other capacities in which it serves. 
 Section 6.10 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

Every successor Trustee or Note Administrator appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer, and the parties
hereto including the retiring Trustee or the retiring Note Administrator, as the case may be, an instrument accepting such appointment. Upon delivery of the required instruments, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or the retiring
Note Administrator shall become effective and such successor Trustee or Note Administrator, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring Trustee or Note
Administrator, as the case may be; but, on request of the Issuer or a Majority of the Controlling Class or the successor Trustee or Note Administrator, such retiring Trustee or Note Administrator shall, upon payment of its fees, indemnities and
other amounts then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee or Note Administrator all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee or Note Administrator, as the case may be, and shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee or Note Administrator all property and amounts held by such retiring Trustee or Note Administrator hereunder, subject nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in
Section 6.7(d). Upon request of any such successor Trustee or Note Administrator, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee or Note
Administrator all such rights, powers and trusts. 
 No successor Trustee or successor Note Administrator shall accept its appointment
unless (a) at the time of such acceptance such successor shall be qualified and eligible under this Article 6, (b) such successor shall have a long-term unsecured debt rating satisfying the requirements set forth in
Section 6.8, and (c) the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. If the outgoing Trustee or outgoing Note Administrator, as applicable, is terminated for cause, the same shall be responsible (i) for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (excluding successor Trustee fees or Note Administrator fees) incurred by the Issuer and such successor (including the reasonable expenses of counsel of
such Person) in connection with the appointment of a successor Trustee or successor Note Administrator, as applicable, and (ii) for the reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses to assign the Collateral Interests to such successor (as agreed to in advance by the outgoing Trustee). 
 Section 6.11

 Any entity into which the Trustee
or the Note Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Note Administrator, shall be a party, or any entity
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee or the Note Administrator, shall be the successor of the Trustee or the Note Administrator, as applicable, hereunder; provided that with respect to
the Trustee, such entity shall be otherwise qualified and 

  
 -117- 












 
eligible under this Article 6, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any of the Notes have
been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Note Administrator then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Note Administrator may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with
the same effect as if such successor Note Administrator had itself authenticated such Notes. 
 Section 6.12 Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee. 
 At any time or times, including for the purpose of meeting the
legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may at the time be located, for enforcement actions, or where a conflict of interest exists, the Issuer and the Trustee shall have power to appoint, one or more Persons to
act as co-trustee jointly with the Trustee or as a separate trustee of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to file such proofs of claim and take such other actions pursuant to
Section 5.6 herein and to make such claims and enforce such rights of action on behalf of the Holders of the Notes as such Holders themselves may have the right to do, subject to the other provisions of this
Section 6.12. 
 The Issuer shall join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all
instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint a co-trustee. If the Issuer does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt of a request to do so, the Trustee shall have power to
make such appointment on its own. 
 Should any written instrument from the Issuer be required by any
co-trustee, so appointed, more fully confirming to such co-trustee such property, title, right or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed,
acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer. The Issuer agrees to pay (but only from and to the extent of the Collateral) to the extent funds are available therefor under the Priority of Payments, for any reasonable fees and expenses in connection with
such appointment. 
 Every co-trustee, shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent
only, be appointed subject to the following terms: 
 (a) all rights, powers, duties and obligations hereunder in respect of the custody of
securities, Cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustee hereunder, shall be exercised solely by the Trustee; 

(b) the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in respect of any property covered by the
appointment of a co-trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such co-trustee jointly in the case of the
appointment of a co-trustee as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any
particular act is to be performed, the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by a
co-trustee; 

  
 -118- 












 (c) the Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the
concurrence of the Issuer evidenced by an Issuer Order, may accept the resignation of, or remove, any co-trustee appointed under this Section 6.12, and in case an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have the power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee without the concurrence of the Issuer. A successor to any co-trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section 6.12; 

(d) no co-trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Trustee
hereunder, and any co-trustee hereunder shall be entitled to all the privileges, rights and immunities under Article 6 hereof, as if it were named the Trustee hereunder; and 

(e) any Act of Noteholders delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each
co-trustee. 
 Section 6.13 Direction to Enter into the Servicing Agreement.

Administrator shall be entitled to the same rights, protections, immunities and indemnities afforded to each herein in connection with any matter contained in the Servicing Agreement.

 -119- 












 (d) there are no proceedings pending or, to the best knowledge of the Trustee, threatened
against the Trustee before any Federal, state or other governmental agency, authority, administrator or regulatory body, arbitrator, court or other tribunal, foreign or domestic, which could have a material adverse effect on the Collateral or the
performance by the Trustee of its obligations under this Indenture or the Servicing Agreement.

Warranties of the Note Administrator. 
 The Note Administrator represents and warrants for the benefit of the other parties to this
Indenture and the parties to the Servicing Agreement that: 
 (a) the Note Administrator is a national banking association with trust

consent, amendment or other modification with respect to any Collateral Interest (before or after any default) or in the event any action is required to be taken in respect to a Loan Document, the Note Administrator shall promptly forward such
notice to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall take such action as required under the Servicing Agreement as described in Section 10.9(f).

 Section 6.17 Withholding. 

(a) If any amount is required to be deducted or withheld from any payment to any Noteholder or payee, such amount shall reduce the amount
otherwise distributable to such Noteholder or payee. The Note Administrator is hereby authorized to withhold or deduct from amounts otherwise distributable to any Noteholder or payee sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally
required to be withheld or deducted (but such authorization shall not prevent the Note Administrator from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and legally withholding payment of such tax, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The
amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to any Noteholder or payee shall be treated as Cash distributed to such Noteholder or payee at the time it is deducted or withheld by the Issuer or the Note Administrator, as applicable, and
remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution, the Note Administrator may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this
Section 6.17. The Issuer agrees to timely provide to the Trustee accurate and complete copies of all documentation received from Noteholders or payee pursuant to Sections 2.7(c) and 2.11(c). Solely with
respect to FATCA compliance and reporting, nothing herein shall impose an obligation on the part of the Note Administrator to determine the amount of any tax or withholding obligation on the part of the Issuer or in respect of the Notes. In
addition, initial purchasers and transferees of Definitive Notes shall provide the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator or their agents, all information, documentation or certifications reasonably required to permit the Issuer to comply with
its tax reporting obligations under applicable law, including any applicable cost basis reporting obligation. 
 (b) For the avoidance of
doubt, the Note Administrator shall reasonably cooperate with Issuer, at Issuer’s direction and expense, to permit Issuer to fulfill its obligations under FATCA; provided that the Note Administrator shall have no independent
obligation to cause or maintain Issuer’s compliance with FATCA and shall have no liability for any withholding on payments to Issuer as a result of Issuer’s failure to achieve or maintain FATCA compliance. 

ARTICLE 7 
 COVENANTS

 Section 7.1 Payment of Principal and Interest. 

The Issuer shall duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest on each Class of Notes in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture. Amounts properly withheld under the Code or other applicable law by any Person from a payment to any Noteholder of interest and/or principal shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer for all purposes of this Indenture. 

The Note Administrator shall, unless prevented from doing so for reasons beyond its reasonable control, give notice to each Noteholder of any
such withholding requirement no later than ten days prior to the related Payment Date from which amounts are required (as directed by the Issuer) to be withheld; provided that, despite the failure of the Note Administrator to give such
notice, amounts withheld pursuant to applicable tax laws shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer, as provided above. 

  
 -121- 












 Section 7.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Issuer hereby appoints the Note Administrator as a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and where Notes
may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and the Issuer hereby appoints CT Corporation System, 28 Liberty Street, New York, New York 10005, as its agent where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes or
this Indenture may be served. 
 The Issuer may at any time and from time to time vary or terminate the appointment of any such agent or
appoint any additional agents for any or all of such purposes; provided, however, that the Issuer will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in
respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served; provided, further, that no paying agent shall be appointed in a jurisdiction which subjects payments on the Notes to withholding tax. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to
the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Rating Agencies and the Noteholders of the appointment or termination of any such agent and of the location and any change in the location of any such office or agency. 

If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or
shall fail to furnish the Trustee and the Note Administrator with the address thereof, presentations and surrenders may be made (subject to the limitations described in the preceding paragraph) at and notices and demands may be served on the Issuer
and Notes may be presented and surrendered for payment to the appropriate Paying Agent at its main office and the Issuer hereby appoints the same as their agent to receive such respective presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

Section 7.3 Amounts for Note Payments to be Held in Trust. 

(a) All payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment Account
shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Note Administrator or a Paying Agent (in each case, from and to the extent of available funds in the Payment Account and subject to the Priority of Payments). 

When the Paying Agent is not also the Notes Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish, or cause the Notes Registrar to furnish, no later than the
fifth calendar day after each Record Date a list, if necessary, in such form as such Paying Agent may reasonably request, of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and of the certificate numbers of individual Notes held by each such Holder
together with wiring instructions, contact information, and such other information reasonably required by the paying agent. 
 Whenever the
Paying Agent is not also the Note Administrator, the Issuer and such Paying Agent shall, on or before the Business Day next preceding each Payment Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be, direct the Note Administrator to deposit on such Payment
Date with such Paying Agent, if necessary, an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then 

  
 -122- 












 
becoming due pursuant to the terms of this Indenture (to the extent funds are then available for such purpose in the Payment Account, and subject to the Priority of Payments), such sum to be held
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto and (unless such Paying Agent is the Note Administrator) the Issuer shall promptly notify the Note Administrator of its action or failure so to act. Any amounts deposited with a Paying Agent (other
than the Note Administrator) in excess of an amount sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due on the Notes with respect to which such deposit was made shall be paid over by such Paying Agent to the Note Administrator for application in
accordance with Article 11. Any such Paying Agent shall be deemed to agree by assuming such role not to institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Issuer or any Permitted Subsidiary, any
petition for bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, liquidation or other similar proceedings under federal or State bankruptcy or similar laws of any jurisdiction for the non-payment to the
Paying Agent of any amounts payable thereto until at least one year (or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect) and one day after the payment in full of all Notes issued under this Indenture. 

The initial Paying Agent shall be as set forth in Section 7.2. Any additional or successor Paying Agents shall be
appointed by Issuer Order of the Issuer and at the sole cost and expense (including such Paying Agent’s fee) of the Issuer, with written notice thereof to the Note Administrator; provided, however, that so long as any
Class of the Notes are rated by a Rating Agency and with respect to any additional or successor Paying Agent for the Notes, either (i) such Paying Agent has a long-term senior unsecured debt rating of “Aa3” or higher by
Moody’s or (ii) each of the Rating Agencies confirms that employing such Paying Agent shall not adversely affect the then-current ratings of the Notes. In the event that such successor Paying Agent ceases to have a long-term senior
unsecured debt rating of “Aa3” or higher by Moody’s, the Issuer shall promptly remove such Paying Agent and appoint a successor Paying Agent. The Issuer shall not appoint any Paying Agent that is not, at the time of such appointment,
a depository institution or trust company subject to supervision and examination by federal and/or state and/or national banking authorities. The Issuer shall cause the Paying Agent other than the Note Administrator to execute and deliver to the
Note Administrator an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Note Administrator (and if the Note Administrator acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 7.3,
that such Paying Agent shall: 
 (i) allocate all sums received for payment to the Holders of Notes in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture; 
 (ii) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes for the
benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided; 

(iii) if such Paying Agent is not the Note Administrator, immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Note
Administrator all sums held by it for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases to satisfy the standards set forth above required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; 

  
 -123- 












 (iv) if such Paying Agent is not the Note Administrator, immediately give
the Note Administrator notice of any Default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any payment required to be made; and 

(v) if such Paying Agent is not the Note Administrator at any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon the written
request of the Note Administrator, forthwith pay to the Note Administrator all sums so held by such Paying Agent. 
 The Issuer may at any
time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Issuer Order direct the Paying Agent to pay, to the Note Administrator all sums held by the Issuer or held by the Paying Agent
for payment of the Notes, such sums to be held by the Note Administrator in trust for the same Noteholders as those upon which such sums were held by the Issuer or the Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by the Paying Agent to the Note
Administrator, the Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such amounts. 
 Except as otherwise required
by applicable law, any amounts deposited with the Note Administrator in trust or deposited with the Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest has
become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on request; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment of such amounts and all liability of the Note Administrator or the
Paying Agent with respect to such amounts (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer) shall thereupon cease. The Note Administrator or the Paying Agent, before being required to make any such release of payment, may, but shall not
be required to, adopt and employ, at the expense of the Issuer, any reasonable means of notification of such release of payment, including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such release to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been
surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in amounts due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Paying Agent, at the last address of record of each such Holder. 

Section 7.4 Existence of the Issuer. 

(a) So long as any Note is Outstanding, the Issuer shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, maintain in full force and effect
its existence and rights as a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware; provided that the Issuer shall be entitled to change its jurisdiction of formation from Delaware to any other jurisdiction reasonably selected by
the Issuer so long as (i) such change is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes, (ii) it delivers written notice of such change to the Note Administrator for delivery to the Holders of the Notes and the
Rating Agencies and (iii) on or prior to the fifteenth (15th) Business Day following delivery of such notice by the Note Administrator to the Noteholders, the Note Administrator shall not have received written notice from a Majority of the
Controlling Class objecting to such change. So long as any rated Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer will maintain at all times at least one director who is Independent of the Special Servicer and its Affiliates. 

  
 -124- 












 (b) So long as any Note is Outstanding, the Issuer shall ensure that all limited liability
company formalities or other formalities regarding its existence are followed (including correcting any known misunderstanding regarding its separate existence). So long as any Note is Outstanding, the Issuer shall not take any action or conduct its
affairs in a manner that is likely to result in its separate existence being ignored or its Collateral and liabilities being substantively consolidated with any other Person in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding. So long as
any Note is Outstanding, the Issuer shall maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures reasonably necessary in the performance of the Issuer’s obligations hereunder, and the Issuer shall at all times keep and maintain, or
cause to be kept and maintained, separate books, records, accounts and other information customarily maintained for the performance of the Issuer’s obligations hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, so long as any Note is Outstanding, the
Issuer shall not (A) have any subsidiaries (other than a Permitted Subsidiary), (B) guarantee any obligation of any Person, including any Affiliate, or become obligated for the debts of any other Person, (C) join in any transaction with
any member that is not permitted under the terms of the Servicing Agreement or this Indenture, (D) pay dividends other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, (E) commingle its funds or Collateral with those of any other
Person, or (F) enter into any contract or agreement with any of its Affiliates, except upon terms and conditions that are commercially reasonable and substantially similar to those available in
arm’s-length transactions with an unrelated party. 
 Section 7.5 Protection of
Collateral. 
 (a) The Note Administrator, at the expense of the Issuer and pursuant to any Opinion of Counsel received pursuant to
Section 7.5(e), shall execute and deliver all such Financing Statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable or
desirable to secure the rights and remedies of the Holders and to: 
 (i) Grant more effectively all or any portion of the
Collateral; 
 (ii) maintain or preserve the lien (and the priority thereof) of this Indenture or to carry out more
effectively the purposes hereof; 
 (iii) perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of any Grant made or to be made
by this Indenture (including, without limitation, any and all actions necessary or desirable as a result of changes in law or regulations); 

(iv) instruct the Special Servicer with respect to enforcement on any of the Collateral Interests or enforce on any other
instruments or property included in the Collateral; 
 (v) instruct the Special Servicer to preserve and defend title to the
Collateral Interests and preserve and defend title to the other Collateral and the rights of the Trustee, the Holders of the Notes in the Collateral against the claims of all persons and parties; and 

(vi) pursuant to Sections 11.1(a)(i)(1) and 11.1(a)(ii)(1), pay or cause to be paid any and all taxes levied or
assessed upon all or any part of the Collateral. 

  
 -125- 












 The Issuer hereby designates the Note Administrator as its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any Financing Statement, continuation statement or other instrument required pursuant to this Section 7.5. The Note
Administrator agrees that it will from time to time execute and cause such Financing Statements and continuation statements to be filed (it being understood that the Note Administrator shall be entitled to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel described
in Section 7.5(e) below, at the expense of the Issuer, as to the need to file such Financing Statements and continuation statements, the dates by which such filings are required to be made and the jurisdictions in which

Upon any consolidation or merger, or transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Collateral of the Issuer, in accordance with
Section 7.10, the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer), or the Person to which such consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance is made, shall succeed to, and be
substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer, as the case may be, under this Indenture with the same effect as if such Person had been named as the Issuer, herein. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, transfer or
conveyance, the Person named as the “Issuer” in the first paragraph of this Indenture or any successor which shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 7 may be dissolved, wound-up and liquidated at any time thereafter, and such Person thereafter shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker on all the Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture. 

Section 7.12 No Other Business. 

The Issuer shall not engage in any business or activity other than issuing and selling the Notes pursuant to this Indenture and any
supplements thereto, and acquiring, owning, holding, disposing of and pledging the Collateral in connection with the Notes and such other activities which are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the foregoing or are incidental thereto or
connected therewith. 
 Section 7.13 Reporting. 

At any time when the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and is not exempt from reporting pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) under the Exchange Act, upon the request of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, the Issuer shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished “Rule 144A Information” (as defined below) to such
Holder or beneficial owner, to a prospective purchaser of such Note designated by such Holder or beneficial owner or to the Note Administrator for delivery to such Holder or beneficial owner or a prospective purchaser designated by such Holder or
beneficial owner, as the case may be, in order to permit compliance by such Holder or beneficial owner with Rule 144A under the Securities Act in connection with the resale of such Note by such Holder or beneficial owner. “Rule 144A
Information” shall be such information as is specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto). The Note Administrator shall reasonably cooperate with the Issuer in mailing or otherwise
distributing (at the Issuer’s expense) to such Noteholders or prospective purchasers, at and pursuant to the Issuer’s written direction the foregoing materials prepared by or on behalf of the Issuer; provided, however, that
the Note Administrator shall be entitled to prepare and affix thereto or enclose therewith reasonable disclaimers to the effect that such Rule 144A Information was not assembled by the Note Administrator, that the Note Administrator has not reviewed
or verified the accuracy thereof, and that it makes no representation as to such accuracy or as to the sufficiency of such information under the requirements of Rule 144A or for any other purpose. 

Section 7.14 Calculation Agent. 

(a) The Issuer hereby agrees that for so long as any Notes remain Outstanding there shall at all times be an agent appointed to calculate the
Benchmark in respect of each Interest Accrual Period in accordance with the terms of Schedule B attached hereto (the “Calculation Agent”). The Issuer initially has appointed the Note Administrator as Calculation Agent for
purposes of determining the Benchmark for each Interest Accrual Period. The Calculation Agent 

  
 -132- 












 
may be removed by the Issuer at any time upon 30 days’ written notice delivered to the Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the
Issuer, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such, or if the Calculation Agent fails to determine the rate using the Benchmark or the Interest Distribution Amount for any Class of
Notes for any Interest Accrual Period, the Issuer shall promptly appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent a leading bank that does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the Issuer or its affiliates. If the Calculation
Agent is removed without cause, the expenses incurred in connection with transferring the Calculation Agent’s responsibilities hereunder shall be reimbursed by the Issuer. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties without a successor
having been duly appointed. If no successor Calculation Agent shall have been appointed within 30 days after giving of a notice of resignation, the resigning Calculation Agent or the Majority Class H Noteholder with regard to the determination
that a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred, may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Calculation Agent, and if such petition is commenced by the Calculation Agent, then such petition will be at the
expense of the Issuer. 
 (b) The Calculation Agent shall calculate, on each Benchmark Determination Date, the Benchmark for the related
Interest Accrual Period and will communicate such information to the Note Administrator, who shall include such calculation on the next Monthly Report following such Benchmark Determination Date. The Calculation Agent shall notify the Issuer and the
Directing Holder before 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on each Benchmark Determination Date if it has not determined and is not in the process of determining the Benchmark and the Interest Distribution Amounts for each Class of Notes, together with
the reasons therefor. The determination of the Note Interest Rates and the related Interest Distribution Amounts, respectively, by the Calculation Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final and binding on all parties to this Indenture and the
Noteholders. 
 Section 7.15 REIT Status. 

(a) Sub-REIT shall not take any action that results in the Issuer failing to qualify as a Qualified
REIT Subsidiary or other disregarded entity of Sub-REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless based on an Opinion of Counsel, the Issuer will be treated as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or other
disregarded entity of a REIT; provided that no such opinion shall be required with respect to a transfer to an affiliate that is directly or indirectly wholly-owned by Sub-REIT or a subsequent REIT and
is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes from Sub-REIT or such subsequent REIT. 
 (b)
Without limiting the generality of Section 7.15(a), if the Issuer is no longer a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or other disregarded entity of a REIT, prior to the time that: 

(i) any Collateral Interest would cause the Issuer become subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis; 

(ii) the Issuer would acquire or receive any asset in connection with a workout or restructuring of a Collateral Interest that
could cause the Issuer to become subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis; 

  
 -133- 












 (iii) the Issuer would acquire the real property underlying any Collateral
Interest pursuant to a foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure; or 

(iv) any Collateral Interest is modified in such a manner that could cause the Issuer to become subject to U.S. federal income
tax on a net income basis, 
 the Issuer will either (x) organize one or more Permitted Subsidiaries and contribute the subject property to such
Permitted Subsidiary, (y) contribute such Collateral Interest to an existing Permitted Subsidiary, or (z) sell such Collateral Interest in accordance with Section 12.1; provided that such Permitted
Subsidiary shall be an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 
 Section 7.16 Permitted
Subsidiaries. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Special Servicer on behalf of the Issuer shall, following
delivery of an Issuer Order to the parties hereto, be permitted to sell or transfer to a Permitted Subsidiary at any time any Sensitive Asset for consideration consisting entirely of the equity interests of such Permitted Subsidiary (or for an
increase in the value of equity interests already owned). Such Issuer Order shall certify that the sale of a Sensitive Asset is being made in accordance with satisfaction of all requirements of this Indenture. The Custodian shall, upon receipt of a
Request for Release with respect to a Sensitive Asset, release such Sensitive Asset and shall deliver such Sensitive Asset as specified in such Request for Release. The following provisions shall apply to all Sensitive Asset and Permitted
Subsidiaries: 
 (a) For all purposes under this Indenture, any Sensitive Asset transferred to a Permitted Subsidiary shall be treated as if
it were an asset owned directly by the Issuer. 
 (b) Any distribution of Cash by a Permitted Subsidiary to the Issuer shall be
characterized as Interest Proceeds or Principal Proceeds to the same extent that such Cash would have been characterized as Interest Proceeds or Principal Proceeds if received directly by the Issuer and each Permitted Subsidiary shall cause all
proceeds of and collections on each Sensitive Asset owned by such Permitted Subsidiary to be deposited into the Payment Account. 
 (c) To
the extent applicable, the Issuer shall form one or more Securities Accounts with the Securities Intermediary for the benefit of each Permitted Subsidiary and shall, to the extent applicable, cause Sensitive Asset to be credited to such Securities
Accounts. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the complete and absolute transfer of a Sensitive Asset to a Permitted Subsidiary, the ownership interests
of the Issuer in a Permitted Subsidiary or any property distributed to the Issuer by a Permitted Subsidiary shall be treated as a continuation of its ownership of the Sensitive Asset that was transferred to such Permitted Subsidiary (and shall be
treated as having the same characteristics as such Sensitive Asset). 
 (e) If the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee, or any other
authorized party takes any action under this Indenture to sell, liquidate or dispose of all or substantially all of the Collateral, the Issuer shall cause each Permitted Subsidiary to sell each Sensitive Asset and all other Collateral held by such
Permitted Subsidiary and distribute the proceeds of such sale, net of any amounts necessary to satisfy any related expenses and tax liabilities, to the Issuer in exchange for the equity interest in such Permitted Subsidiary held by the Issuer. 

  
 -134- 












 Section 7.17 Repurchase Requests. 

If the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Servicer or the Special Servicer receives any request or demand that a Collateral
Interest be repurchased or replaced arising from any Material Breach of a representation or warranty made with respect to such Collateral Interest or any Material Document Defect (any such request or demand, a “Repurchase Request”)
or a withdrawal of a Repurchase Request from any Person other than the Special Servicer, then the Issuer, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Note Administrator, as applicable, shall promptly forward such notice of such Repurchase Request or withdrawal
of a Repurchase Request, as the case may be, to the Special Servicer and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a “[Repurchase Request]/[withdrawal of a Repurchase Request]” under Section 3.19 of
the Servicing Agreement relating to FS Rialto 2022-FL7 Issuer, LLC, requiring action from you as the “Repurchase Request Recipient” thereunder.” Upon receipt of such Repurchase Request or
withdrawal of a Repurchase Request by the Special Servicer pursuant to the prior sentence, the Special Servicer shall be deemed to be the Repurchase Request Recipient in respect of such Repurchase Request or withdrawal of a Repurchase Request, as
the case may be, and shall be responsible for complying with the procedures set forth in Section 3.19 of the Servicing Agreement with respect to such Repurchase Request. 

Section 7.18 Servicing of Commercial Real Estate Loans and Control of Servicing Decisions. 

The Commercial Real Estate Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Commercial Real Estate Loans) will be
serviced by the Servicer and the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, subject to the consultation, consent and direction rights of the Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor and other Persons, as set forth in the
Servicing Agreement, and subject to any consent and/or consultation rights of the holder of the related Companion Participation under the related Participation Agreement, subject to those conditions, restrictions or termination events expressly
provided therein. Nothing in this Indenture shall be interpreted to limit in any respect the rights of the Directing Holder under the Servicing Agreement and none of the Issuer, Note Administrator and Trustee shall take any action under this
Indenture inconsistent with the rights of the Directing Holder or other Persons set forth under the Servicing Agreement.

relating to transparency, disclosure and credit-granting) in the event of such amendment or repeal; provided that (x) in relation to the Credit Risk Retention Rules, the Trustee has received an opinion of counsel or (y) in
relation to the the UK Securitization Laws, the Sponsor certifies to the Trustee that it has received written legal advice, in each case, to the effect the action is consistent with and will not cause a violation of the Credit Risk Retention Rules
or the UK Securitization Laws (as applicable); 
 (xiv) reduce the minimum denominations required for transfer of the Notes;

of Issuer for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel; 
 (xvi) modify the procedures set
forth in this Indenture relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that the change would not materially increase the obligations of the Note Administrator, Trustee, any

the Note Administrator must provide a copy of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Website and provide notice of any such
amendment to the Rating Agencies;

 -137- 












 (xix) make any modification or amendment determined by the Issuer (in
consultation with legal counsel of national reputation experienced in such matters and independent of the Issuer and any of its affiliates) as necessary or advisable (A) for any Class of Notes to not be considered an “ownership
interest” as defined for purposes of the Volcker Rule or (B) (1) to enable the Issuer to rely upon the exemption or exclusion from registration as an investment company provided by
Rule 3a-7 under the 1940 Act or another exemption or exclusion from registration as an investment company under the 1940 Act (other than Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) thereof) or

Notes. 
 The Note Administrator and Trustee are each hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to
make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Note Administrator and Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Note Administrator’s or
Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.

 Section 8.2 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders. 

Except as set forth below, the Note Administrator, the Trustee and the Issuer may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto to add
any provisions to, or change in any manner or eliminate any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modify in any manner the rights of the Holders of any Class of Notes under this Indenture only with (x) the written consent of the holders
of at least a Majority of the Notes of each Class materially and adversely affected thereby (excluding any Notes owned by the Issuer, the Seller or any of its Affiliates as identified in the Beneficial Holder Information Form submitted along
with the related Noteholder’s consent) by Act of said Noteholders delivered to the Trustee, the Note Administrator and the Issuer and (y) satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, notice of which may be in electronic form. In connection
with any such supplemental indenture, the holders of at least a Majority of the Notes of each Class may determine whether the Holders of any Class of Notes (evaluated individually on a Class-by-Class basis) will be materially and adversely affected by a supplemental indenture. Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all present and future Noteholders. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any supplemental indenture to add or modify any of the provisions of this Indenture with respect to
(a) the definitions of “Controlling Class,” “Majority” and “Supermajority” and (b) the Funded Companion Participation Acquisition Criteria and the Note Protection Tests, shall require the consent of the
holders of at least a Supermajority of the Notes of each Class. 
 Without the consent of all of the Holders of each Outstanding
Class of Notes materially adversely affected, no supplemental indenture may: 
 (a) change the Stated Maturity Date of the principal of
or the due date of any installment of interest on any Note, reduce the principal amount thereof or the Note Interest Rate thereon or the Redemption Price with respect to any Note, change the earliest date on which any Note may be redeemed at the
option of the Issuer, change the provisions of this Indenture that apply proceeds of any Collateral to the payment of principal of or interest on Notes or change any place where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the principal thereof or
interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity Date thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the applicable Redemption Date); 

(b) reduce the percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Holders of Notes of each Class of the Holders thereof whose consent is
required for the authorization of any such supplemental indenture or for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain Defaults hereunder or their consequences provided for in this Indenture; 

(c) impair or adversely affect the Collateral except as otherwise permitted in this Indenture; 

(d) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Collateral
or terminate such lien on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Secured Note of the security afforded by the lien of this Indenture; 

  
 -139- 












 (e) reduce the percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Holders of Notes of each
Class whose consent is required to request the Trustee to preserve the Collateral or rescind any election to preserve the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.5 or to sell or liquidate the Collateral pursuant to
Section 5.4 or 5.5; 
 (f) modify any of the provisions of Section 8.1 and this
Section 8.2, except to increase the percentage of Outstanding Notes whose holders’ consent is required for any such action or to provide that other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the
consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby; 
 (g) modify the definitions of the terms “Outstanding” or
“Funded Companion Participation Acquisition Period” or the provisions of Section 11.1(a) or Section 13.1; 

(h) modify any of the provisions in this Indenture in such a manner as to affect the requirement that the Issuer be treated as a Qualified
REIT Subsidiary or disregarded entity of a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes; 
 (i) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture
in such a manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest on or principal of any Note on any Payment Date (or any other date) or to affect the rights of the Holders of Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the
redemption of such Notes contained herein; 
 (j) reduce the permitted minimum denominations of the Notes below the minimum denomination
necessary to maintain an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or the 1940 Act; or 
 (k) modify any provisions
regarding non-recourse or non-petition covenants with respect to the Issuer; 

provided that the holders of each Class of Notes will be deemed to be materially adversely affected by any supplemental indenture with respect to
clauses (b) and (f) above. 
 The Trustee and Note Administrator shall be entitled to rely upon an Officer’s
Certificate of the Issuer in determining whether or not the Holders of Notes would be materially or adversely affected by such change (after giving notice of such change to the Holders of Notes). Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on
all present and future Holders of Notes. Neither the Trustee nor the Note Administrator shall be liable for any such determination made in good faith. 

Section 8.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 

In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article 8 or
the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Note Administrator and Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental
indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied (which Opinion of Counsel may rely upon an Officer’s Certificate as to whether or not the Noteholders would be materially and
adversely affected by such supplemental indenture). The Note Administrator and Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise. 

  
 -140- 












 The Servicer and Special Servicer will be bound to follow any amendment or supplement to
this Indenture of which it has received written notice at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the execution and delivery of such amendment or supplement; provided, however, that with respect to any amendment or supplement to
this Indenture which may, in the judgment of the Servicer or Special Servicer adversely affect the Servicer or Special Servicer, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be bound (and the Issuer agrees that it will not permit any
such amendment to become effective) unless the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, gives written consent to the Note Administrator, the Trustee and the Issuer to such amendment. The Issuer, the Trustee and the Note Administrator shall give
written notice to the Servicer and Special Servicer of any amendment made to this Indenture pursuant to its terms. In addition, the Servicer or Special Servicer’s written consent, as applicable, shall be required prior to any amendment to this
Indenture by which it is adversely affected. 
 The Sponsor’s written consent shall be required prior to any amendment to this
Indenture by which the Sponsor is adversely affected. 
 At the cost of the Issuer, the Note Administrator shall provide to each Noteholder
and, for so long as any Class of Notes shall remain Outstanding and is rated, the Note Administrator shall provide to the 17g-5 Information Provider and the Rating Agencies a copy of any proposed
supplemental indenture at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the execution thereof by the Note Administrator, and following execution shall provide to the 17g-5 Information Provider and the Rating
Agencies a copy of the executed supplemental indenture. 
 Neither the Trustee nor the Note Administrator shall enter into any such
supplemental indenture unless the Trustee and the Note Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel from Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP or another nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that the proposed
supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to fail to be treated as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or other disregarded entity of a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise become subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income
basis. The Trustee and the Note Administrator shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the receipt of notice from the Rating Agencies or the Requesting Party, which may be in electronic form, that the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied and
(ii) receipt of an Opinion of Counsel forwarded to the Trustee and Note Administrator certifying that, following provision of notice of such supplemental indenture to the Noteholders, that the Holders of Notes would not be materially and
adversely affected by such supplemental indenture. Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all present and future Holders of Notes. Neither the Trustee nor the Note Administrator shall be liable for any such determination made in good
faith and in reliance upon such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. 
 It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this
Section 8.3 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 

  
 -141- 












 Promptly after the execution by the Issuer, the Note Administrator and the Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 8.3, the Note Administrator, at the expense of the Issuer, shall mail to the Noteholders, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and, so long as the Notes
are Outstanding and so rated, the Rating Agencies a copy thereof based on an outstanding rating. Any failure of the Trustee and the Note Administrator to publish or mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or
affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 
 Section 8.4 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article 8, this Indenture shall be modified in
accordance therewith, such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes and every Holder of Notes theretofore and thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder, shall be bound thereby. 

Section 8.5 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. 

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article 8 may,
and if required by the Note Administrator shall, bear a notice in form approved by the Note Administrator as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer shall so determine, new Notes, so modified as to conform in the
opinion of the Note Administrator and the Issuer to any such supplemental indenture, may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Note Administrator in exchange for Outstanding Notes. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any Note authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be subject to the terms and provisions of this Indenture, and any supplemental indenture. 

ARTICLE 9

Redemption; and Auction Call Redemption. 
 (a) The Notes shall be redeemable by the Issuer, in whole but not in part, at the option of

Offered Notes (excluding Deferred Interest) has been reduced to 10% or less of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Offered Notes on the Closing Date at a price equal to their applicable Redemption Prices (such redemption, a “Clean-up Call”); provided that the funds available to be used for such Clean-up Call will be sufficient to pay the Total Redemption Price. 

(b) The Notes shall be redeemable by the Issuer, in whole but not in part, at the option of and upon at the written notice by the Majority
Class H Noteholder (which shall be delivered in accordance with Section 9.3(a)), on any Payment Date following the occurrence of a Tax Event if the Tax Materiality Condition is satisfied at a price equal to their
applicable Redemption Prices (such redemption, a “Tax Redemption”); provided that the funds available to be used for such Tax Redemption will be sufficient to pay the Total Redemption Price. 

  
 -142- 












 (c) The Notes shall be redeemable by the Issuer, in whole but not in part, at the option of
and upon written notice by the Majority Class H Noteholder (which shall be delivered in accordance with Section 9.3(a)), on any Payment Date after the end of the Non-call Period
at a price equal to their applicable Redemption Prices (such redemption, an “Optional Redemption”); provided, however, that the funds available to be used for such Optional Redemption will be sufficient to pay the
Total Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuer shall not sell any Collateral to the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller other than the Retention Holder in connection with an Optional Redemption. 

(d) From and after the Payment Date in December 2032, the Special Servicer will be required to conduct an auction prior to each Payment Date
occurring in March, June, September and December in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture. Notes shall be redeemed by the Issuer, in whole but not in part, at their respective Redemption Prices if a Successful Auction is
completed pursuant to the procedures set forth on Exhibit N hereto (each, an “Auction Call Redemption”). An Auction Call Redemption may only occur on a Payment Date in March, June, September and December. 

(e) In connection with any redemption pursuant to Section 9.1(a), (b) or (c), if the Holders of the
Class H Notes and/or one or more affiliates thereof own any Notes, such holder(s) may elect to include such Notes as part of the consideration for such redemption and the Total Redemption Price shall be reduced by the outstanding principal
balance of such Notes (plus the interest accrued thereon). If such holder(s) own less than 100% of the Notes of any such Class, the Note Administrator shall cooperate with such holder(s) in order to effect such redemption (including, if necessary,
converting such Notes into definitive form). 
 (f) A redemption pursuant to Section 9.1(a), (b) or
(c) shall not occur unless at least six (6) Business Days prior to the scheduled Redemption Date, the Majority Class H Noteholder certifies to the Trustee and the Note Administrator that: 

(i) the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Issuer, has entered into a binding commitment or agreement (which may be an
agreement with an affiliate of any holder of the Class H Notes) to sell (directly, by participation or other arrangement) all or part of the Collateral not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled Redemption Date or FS
Credit REIT (or an Affiliate or agent thereof) has priced but not yet closed another securitization transaction; 
 (ii) the
related Sale Proceeds (in immediately available funds), together with all other available funds (including proceeds from the sale of the Collateral Interests, Eligible Investments maturing on or prior to the scheduled Redemption Date, all amounts in
the Accounts and available Cash), shall be an aggregate amount sufficient to pay the Total Redemption Price; and 
 (iii) all
of the other conditions for such redemption, as applicable, have been satisfied. 

  
 -143- 












 (g) In connection with an Optional Redemption, a
Clean-Up Call, a Tax Redemption or an Auction Call Redemption, the Issuer, at the direction of the Majority Class H Noteholder, shall sell such Collateral Interests and may at any time direct the Trustee
in writing by Issuer Order to execute any transfer documents required in order to effectuate the sale of such Collateral Interests, in the manner determined by the Majority Class H Noteholder without regard to any of the limitations in
Section 12.1(a). Upon any such sale, the Trustee shall release any such Collateral Interest pursuant to Section 10.11.

In connection with a Clean-up Call pursuant to Section 9.1(a), a Tax
Redemption pursuant to Section 9.1(b), an Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 9.1(c) or an Auction Call Redemption pursuant to Section 9.1(d), the Note Administrator shall
set the applicable Record Date ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Redemption Date. 
 Section 9.3 Notice of
Redemption or Maturity. 
 (a) Notice of redemption (or a withdrawal thereof) or Clean-up Call
pursuant to Section 9.1 or the Maturity of any Notes shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than ten (10) Business Days (or four (4) Business Days (or promptly thereafter upon receipt
of written notice, if later) where the notice of an Optional Redemption, an Auction Call Redemption, a Clean-up Call or a Tax Redemption is withdrawn pursuant to Section 9.3(c)) prior
to the applicable Redemption Date or Maturity, to the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Rating Agencies, and each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, at its address in the Notes Register. If
any Notes are held as Definitive Notes when called for redemption, such Notes must be surrendered at the office of the Paying Agent. 
 All
notices of redemption shall state: 
 (i) the applicable Redemption Date; 

(ii) the applicable Redemption Price; 

(iii) that all the Notes are being paid in full and that interest on the Notes shall cease to accrue on the Redemption Date
specified in the notice; and 
 (iv) the place or places where any Notes held as Definitive Notes to be redeemed in whole are
to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price which shall be the office or agency of the Paying Agent as provided in Section 7.2. 

(b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Issuer, or at its request, by the Note Administrator in its name, and at the expense of the
Issuer. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Note shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Notes. 

  
 -144- 












 (c) Any such notice of an Optional Redemption, an Auction Call Redemption, a Clean-up Call or Tax Redemption may be withdrawn by the Issuer at the direction of the Majority Class H Noteholder up to the Business Day prior to the scheduled Redemption Date by written notice to the Trustee,
the Note Administrator, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, and the Directing Holder. The failure of any Optional Redemption, Auction Call Redemption,
Clean-up Call or Tax Redemption that is withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture shall not constitute an Event of Default. 

(d) The Redemption Price shall be determined no earlier than sixty (60) days prior to the proposed Redemption Date. 

Section 9.4 Notes Payable on Redemption Date. 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the
Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Issuer shall Default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest thereon) the Notes shall cease to bear interest on the Redemption Date. Upon
final payment on a Note to be redeemed, the Holder shall present and surrender such Note at the place specified in the notice of redemption on or prior to such Redemption Date; provided, however, that if there is delivered to the
Issuer, the Note Administrator and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless and an undertaking thereafter to surrender such Note, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note
Administrator and the Trustee that the applicable Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, such final payment shall be made without presentation or surrender. Payments of interest on Notes of a Class to be so redeemed whose Maturity is
on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Date according to the terms and provisions of
Section 2.7(j). 
 If any Note called for redemption shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the
principal thereof shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the applicable Note Interest Rate for each successive Interest Accrual Period the Note remains Outstanding. Subject to applicable escheatment law, any funds not
distributed to any Noteholder on the Payment Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Notes, shall, on such date, be set aside and held for the benefit of the appropriate
non-tendering Holder or Holders. 
 Section 9.5 Mandatory Redemption. 

On any Payment Date on which either of the Note Protection Tests is not satisfied as of any Determination Date, the Offered Notes shall be
redeemed (a “Mandatory Redemption”), from Interest Proceeds as set forth in Section 11.1(a)(i)(14) in an amount necessary, and only to the extent necessary, for such Note Protection Test to be satisfied or,
if sooner, until the Offered Notes have been paid in full. On or promptly after such Mandatory Redemption, the Issuer shall certify or cause to be certified to the Rating Agencies and the Note Administrator whether the Note Protection Tests have
been satisfied.

Payments, are insufficient to remit the interest due and payable with respect to the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes and the Class B Notes on such Payment Date as a result of interest
shortfalls on the Collateral Interests (or the application of interest received on the Collateral Interests to pay certain expenses in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement) (the amount of such insufficiency, an “Interest
Shortfall”), the Note Administrator shall provide the Advancing Agent with email notice of such Interest Shortfall no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day preceding such Payment Date, at the following addresses:
FSCREIT_TEAM@fsinvestments.com, credit.notices@fsinvestments.com and Portfolio_finance@fsinvestments.com, or such other email address as provided by the Advancing Agent to the Note Administrator. The Note Administrator shall provide the Advancing
Agent with additional email notice, prior to any funding of an Interest Advance by the Advancing Agent, of any additional interest remittances received by the Note Administrator after delivery of such initial notice that reduces such Interest
Shortfall. No later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the related Payment Date, the Advancing Agent shall advance the difference between such amounts (each such advance, an “Interest Advance”) by deposit of an amount equal to such
Interest Advance in the Payment Account, subject to a determination of recoverability by the Advancing Agent as described in Section 10.6(b), and subject to a maximum limit in respect of any Payment Date equal to the lesser
of (i) the aggregate amount of the Interest Shortfalls that would otherwise occur on the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes and the Class B Notes on such Payment Date and (ii) the
aggregate amount of the interest payments not received in respect of Collateral Interests with respect to such Payment Date (including, for such purpose, interest payments received on the Collateral Interests but applied to pay certain expenses in
accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement). 

  
 -148- 












 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no circumstance will the Advancing Agent be required to
make an Interest Advance in respect of a Collateral Interest to the extent that the aggregate outstanding amount of all unreimbursed Interest Advances would exceed the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes and the Class B Notes. In addition, in no event will the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent or the Trustee be required to advance any payments in respect of (i) interest on
any Class of Notes other than the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes and the Class B Notes or (ii) principal of any Note. Any Interest Advance made by the Advancing Agent with respect
to a Payment Date that is in excess of the actual Interest Shortfall for such Payment Date shall be refunded to the Advancing Agent by the Note Administrator on the next Business Day (or, if such Interest Advance is made prior to final determination
by the Note Administrator of such Interest Shortfall, on the Business Day of such final determination). 
 The Advancing Agent shall provide
the Note Administrator written notice of a determination by the Advancing Agent that a proposed Interest Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the related Payment Date. If the
Advancing Agent shall fail to make any required Interest Advance no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Payment Date upon which distributions are to be made pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i), the Note Administrator
shall remove the Advancing Agent in its capacity as advancing agent hereunder as required under Section 17.5(d) and the Backup Advancing Agent shall be required to make such Interest Advance no later than 11:00 a.m. (New
York time) on the Payment Date, subject to a determination of recoverability by the Backup Advancing Agent as described in Section 10.6(b). If the Backup Advancing Agent fails to make any required Interest Advance by 12:00
p.m. on the Payment Date, then the Backup Advancing Agent shall notify the Trustee, via email at cmbstrustee@wilmingtontrust.com no later than 12:00 p.m. on the Payment Date and shall furnish to the Trustee any information requested by the Trustee
to determine recoverability of such Interest Advance. The Trustee shall, based on its determination of recoverability, make such Interest Advance no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Payment Date. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any
notice given by the Advancing Agent or Backup Advancing Agent with respect to a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance hereunder. Based upon available information at the time, the Backup Advancing Agent or the Advancing Agent, as applicable, will provide
fifteen (15) days prior notice to the Rating Agencies if recovery of a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance would result in an Interest Shortfall on the next succeeding Payment Date. No later than the close of business on the Determination Date
related to a Payment Date on which the recovery of a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance would result in an Interest Shortfall, the Backup Advancing Agent or the Advancing Agent, as applicable, shall provide the Rating Agencies with notice of such
recovery. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent nor the Trustee,
as applicable, shall be required to make any Interest Advance unless such Person determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith that such Interest Advance, or such proposed Interest Advance, plus interest expected to accrue
thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, will not be a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance. In determining whether any proposed Interest Advance will be, or whether any Interest Advance previously made is, a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance, the Advancing
Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, will take into account: 
 (i) amounts that may be realized
on each Mortgaged Property in its “as is” or then-current condition and occupancy; 

  
 -149- 












 (ii) the potential length of time before such Interest Advance may be
reimbursed and the resulting degree of uncertainty with respect to such reimbursement; and 
 (iii) the possibility and
effects of future adverse changes with respect to the Mortgaged Properties, and 
 (iv) the fact that Interest Advances are
intended to provide liquidity only and not credit support to the Holders of the Notes. 
 For purposes of any such determination of whether
an Interest Advance constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance, an Interest Advance will be deemed to be nonrecoverable if the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that future
Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds may be ultimately insufficient to fully reimburse such Interest Advance, plus interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate within a reasonable period of time. The Backup Advancing Agent and the Trustee
will be entitled to conclusively rely on any affirmative determination by the Advancing Agent that an Interest Advance would have been a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance. Absent bad faith, the determination by the Advancing Agent, the Backup
Advancing Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, as to the nonrecoverability of any Interest Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes and the
Class B Notes. 
 (c) Each of the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent and the Trustee may recover any previously unreimbursed
Interest Advance made by it (including any Nonrecoverable Interest Advance), together with interest thereon, first, from Interest Proceeds and second (to the extent that there are insufficient Interest Proceeds for such reimbursement), from
Principal Proceeds to the extent that such reimbursement would not trigger an additional Interest Shortfall; provided that if at any time an Interest Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance, the Advancing Agent,
the Backup Advancing Agent or the Trustee shall be entitled to recover all outstanding Interest Advances from the Collection Account pursuant to the Servicing Agreement on any Business Day during any Interest Accrual Period prior to the related
Determination Date. The Advancing Agent or Backup Advancing Agent, as the case may be, shall be permitted (but not obligated) to defer or otherwise structure the timing of recoveries of Nonrecoverable Interest Advances in such manner as the
Advancing Agent or Backup Advancing Agent, as the case may be, determines is in the best interest of the Holders of the Notes, as a collective whole, which may include being reimbursed for Nonrecoverable Interest Advances in installments. 

(d) The Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent and the Trustee will each be entitled with respect to any Interest Advance made by it
(including Nonrecoverable Interest Advances) to interest accrued on the amount of such Interest Advance for so long as it is outstanding at the Reimbursement Rate. 

(e) The obligations of the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent and the Trustee to make Interest Advances in respect of the
Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes and the Class B Notes will continue through the Stated Maturity Date, unless such Notes are previously redeemed or repaid in full. 

  
 -150- 












 (f) In no event shall the Advancing Agent, in its capacity as such hereunder, the Note
Administrator, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent hereunder, or the Trustee, in its capacity as backup advancing agent hereunder, be required to advance any amounts in respect of payments of principal of any Notes, nor payments in respect of
interest, other than with respect to the Class A Notes, the Class A-S Notes and the Class B Notes. Additionally, in no event will the Advancing Agent, in its capacity as such hereunder, or the
Note Administrator, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent hereunder, be required to advance any amounts in respect of payments of principal or interest, or any other amounts, of any Collateral Interest. 

(g) In consideration of the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Advancing Agent shall be entitled to receive, at the times set forth
herein and subject to the Priority of Payments, to the extent funds are available therefor, the Advancing Agent Fee. For so long as (i) FS Credit REIT (or any of its Affiliates) is the Advancing Agent and (ii) any of FS Credit REIT’s
affiliates owns the Class H Notes, FS Credit REIT hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, to waive its rights to receive the Advancing Agent Fee and any Reimbursement Interest. In the event that the Advancing Agent fails to make
an Interest Advance required to be made by the Advancing Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, (x) the Advancing Agent shall be in default of its obligations under this Indenture, (y) the Backup Advancing Agent shall be required
to make such Interest Advance and shall be entitled to receive, in consideration thereof, the Advancing Agent Fee in accordance with the Priority of Payments and (z) the Note Administrator shall terminate the Advancing Agent and use
commercially reasonable efforts for up to 90 days following such termination to replace the Advancing Agent with a successor advancing agent that satisfies the requirements set forth in this Indenture. If the Advancing Agent is terminated for
failing to make an Interest Advance hereunder (as provided in Section 17.5(d)) (or for failing to make a Servicing Advance under the Servicing Agreement) that the Advancing Agent did not determine to be nonrecoverable, any
applicable subsequent successor advancing agent will be entitled to receive the Advancing Agent Fee (plus Reimbursement Interest on any Interest Advance made by the applicable subsequent successor advancing agent). 

(h) The determination by the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent or the Trustee (in its capacity as successor Advancing Agent), as
applicable, (i) that it has made a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance (together with Reimbursement Interest thereon) or (ii) that any proposed Interest Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance, shall be evidenced
by an Officer’s Certificate delivered promptly to the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Issuer and the 17g-5 Information Provider, setting forth the basis for such determination; provided
that failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of, or the Advancing Agent, the Backup Advancing Agent or the Trustee, entitlement to reimbursement with respect to, any Interest Advance. 

(i) With respect to any Interest Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Backup Advancing Agent’s rights,
protections and immunities hereunder, including, without limitation, the Backup Advancing Agent’s rights of reimbursement and interest on each Interest Advance at the reimbursement rate, the Advancing Agent Fee and the right to determine that a
proposed Interest Advance is a Nonrecoverable Interest Advance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all references to “Backup Advancing Agent” in Section 11.1 relating to reimbursing the Backup
Advancing Agent for any Interest Advance or interest thereon shall include the “Trustee” so the Note Administrator shall be entitled to withdraw from 

  
 -151- 












 
the Payment Account any amounts available to pay the Trustee, reimburse the Trustee for such Interest Advances and other items and use such amounts instead to reimburse the Trustee for such
Interest Advances; provided that the Trustee shall have priority over the Backup Advancing Agent for such reimbursements. 
 (j) The
Trustee will remain eligible to act as Backup Advancing Agent for so long as it maintains its eligibility requirements as Trustee under Section 6.8.

 ARTICLE 14 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 14.1 Form of Documents Delivered to the Trustee and Note Administrator. 

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that
all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other
such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 
 Any
certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Authorized Officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer or Opinion of
Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, the Issuer or any other Person, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Issuer or such other Person, unless such Authorized Officer of the Issuer or such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel also may be based, insofar as it
relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Authorized Officer of the Issuer, or the Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Issuer, certifying as to the factual matters that form a basis for
such Opinion of Counsel and stating that the information with respect to such matters is in the possession of the Issuer, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or
other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
 Whenever in this Indenture it is
provided that the absence of the occurrence and continuation of a Default or Event of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the Trustee or the Note Administrator at the request or direction of the Issuer, then
notwithstanding that the satisfaction of such condition is a condition precedent to the Issuer’s rights to make such request or direction, the Trustee or the Note Administrator shall be protected in acting in accordance with such request or
direction if it does not have knowledge of the occurrence and continuation of such Default or Event of Default as provided in Section 6.1(i). 

  
 -176- 












 Section 14.2 Acts of Noteholders. 

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action
shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and the Note Administrator, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action or actions embodied therein
and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any
purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Note Administrator and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 14.2. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Trustee or the
Note Administrator deems sufficient. 
 (c) The principal amount and registered numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date of his
holding the same, shall be proved by the Notes Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee and Note Administrator may conclusively rely on an Investor Certification to determine ownership of any Notes. 

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Noteholder shall bind such Noteholder (and
any transferee thereof) of such Note and of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Note Administrator or the Issuer
in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

 Section 14.4 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture or the Servicing Agreement provides for notice to Holders of Notes of any
event, 
 (a) such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Notes if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each
Holder of a Note affected by such event, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Notes Register, not earlier than the earliest date and not later than the latest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice; and 

(b) such notice shall be in the English language. 

The Note Administrator shall deliver to the Holders of the Notes any information or notice in its possession, requested to be so delivered by
at least 25% of the Holders of any Class of Notes. 
 Neither the failure to mail any notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed,
to any particular Holder of a Note shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Notes. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to give
such notice by mail, then such notification to Holders of Notes shall be made with the approval of the Note Administrator and shall constitute sufficient notification to such Holders of Notes for every purpose hereunder. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Trustee and with the Note Administrator, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the
validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 In the event that, by reason of the suspension of the regular mail service as
a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice
as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee and the Note Administrator shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. 

Section 14.5 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 

The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 

Section 14.6 Successors and Assigns. 

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

 Section 14.7 Severability. 

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability
of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 14.8 Benefits of Indenture. 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than (i) the parties hereto and their
successors hereunder and (ii) the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Notes Registrar and the Noteholders (each of whom shall be an express third party beneficiary hereunder), any benefit or any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
 Section 14.9 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

connection with any third-party due diligence services such party may have provided with respect to the Collateral Interests (“Due Diligence Service Provider”), such receiving party shall promptly forward such Form ABS Due Diligence-15E to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting on the 17g-5 Website.

Agent;

its duties hereunder conflicts with or will violate or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitutes a default under: (i) the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Advancing Agent, (ii) the
terms of any indenture, contract, lease, mortgage, deed of trust, note agreement or other evidence of indebtedness or other agreement, obligation, condition, covenant or instrument to which the Advancing Agent is a party or is bound, (iii) any
law, decree, order, rule or regulation applicable to the Advancing Agent of any court or regulatory, administrative or governmental agency, body or authority or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Advancing Agent or its properties, and which

or the ability of the Advancing Agent to perform its obligations under this Indenture; 
 (d) no litigation is pending or, to the best of
the Advancing Agent’s knowledge, threatened, against the Advancing Agent that would materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or enforceability of this Indenture or the ability of the Advancing Agent to perform any of its
obligations under this Indenture in accordance with the terms hereof; and 
 (e) no consent, approval, authorization or order of or
declaration or filing with any government, governmental instrumentality or court or other Person is required for the performance by the Advancing Agent of its duties hereunder, except such as have been duly made or obtained.

fails to make such Interest Advance, the Trustee, shall be required to make such Interest Advance, subject to a determination of recoverability, and (iii) the Note Administrator shall terminate such Advancing Agent and use commercially

one copy to the successor Advancing Agent, together with a copy to each Noteholder, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, the Servicer and the Special Servicer; provided that such successor Advancing Agent shall
be appointed only subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, upon the written consent of the Majority Class H Noteholder. If no successor Advancing Agent shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor
Advancing Agent shall not have been delivered to the Advancing Agent within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Advancing Agent, the Trustee, the Note Administrator, or the Majority Class H Noteholder, on
behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Advancing Agent. 

(f) The Issuer shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the Advancing Agent and each appointment of a successor

BENCHMARK 
 Calculation of the Benchmark

 For purposes of calculating the Benchmark (which shall initially be Term SOFR), the Issuer shall initially appoint the Note
Administrator as calculation agent (in such capacity, the “Calculation Agent”). 
 Term SOFR with respect to any Interest
Accrual Period shall be determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following provisions: 
 1. On each Benchmark
Determination Date, Term SOFR shall equal the rate, as obtained by the Calculation Agent, identified as “1 Month CME Term SOFR,” as reported on the Term SOFR Source as of the Reference Time. 

2. If, on any Benchmark Determination Date, Term SOFR does not appear on the Term SOFR Source by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time), then Term
SOFR shall be the rate published on the last SOFR Business Day preceding such Benchmark Determination Date for which Term SOFR was published. 

3. In no event shall Term SOFR be less than zero. 

In making the above calculations, all percentages resulting from the calculation shall be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred
thousandth of a percentage point (0.00001%).
