116991368\V-8

and received by the Issuer or any Property Owner from any third party or Tenant under the Leases (as defined in the Property Management Agreement) or (F) any funds received by the Issuer for payment of Taxes or other charges that can create liens on any portion of the Properties; and
(vii)any security deposits (including letters of credit) collected with respect to any Property which are not delivered to the Indenture Trustee upon a foreclosure of such Property or action in lieu thereof, except to the extent (x) the Indenture Trustee does not agree to assume liability therefor in accordance with the related Lease or Applicable Law, or (y) any such security deposits were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof.
(b)    In addition, the Sponsor shall guaranty and be liable for the full amount of the Debt in the event that within ninety (90) days from the date hereof, (A) a receiver, liquidator or trustee of the Issuer or any Property Owner shall be appointed at the request of, or with the consent of, the Issuer or such Property Owner, (B) any voluntary petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall be filed by or against, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Issuer or any Property Owner or (C) any proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of the Issuer or any Property Owner shall be instituted by the Issuer or such Property Owner.  
(c)    In the event of a breach by the Issuer of its obligation to cure a Collateral Defect (as defined in the Property Management Agreement) or cause a release or substitution of the related Property as required under the Property Management Agreement, the Sponsor shall guaranty and be liable for curing such breach or exchanging one or more Qualified Substitute Properties for such Property or shall be obligated to purchase the related Property for the Payoff Amount (as defined in the Property Management Agreement).
(d)    Any obligations or liabilities incurred by the Sponsor under subparagraphs (b) and (c) immediately above shall be included in the definition of “Guaranteed Obligations”.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Transaction Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Indenture Trustee may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Debt secured by the Collateral, the Issuer Collateral and the Mortgages, as applicable, or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Debt owing to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the Transaction Documents.
1.3.Nature of Guaranty.  This Guaranty is an irrevocable, absolute, continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not a guaranty of collection.  This Guaranty may not be revoked by the Sponsor and shall continue to be effective with respect to any Guaranteed 
3
116991368\V-8

Obligations arising or created after any attempted revocation by the Sponsor and after (if the Sponsor is a natural person) the Sponsor’s death (in which event this Guaranty shall be binding upon the Sponsor’s estate and the Sponsor’s legal representatives and heirs). The fact that at any time or from time to time the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased or reduced shall not release or discharge the obligation of the Sponsor to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee and any subsequent holder of the Notes and shall not be discharged by the assignment or negotiation of all or part of the Notes.
1.4.Guaranteed Obligations Not Reduced by Offset.  The Notes, the Guaranteed Obligations and the liabilities and obligations of the Sponsor to the Indenture Trustee hereunder, shall not be reduced, discharged or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of Issuer, or any other party, against the Indenture Trustee or any other party or against payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether such offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations (or the transactions creating the Guaranteed Obligations) or otherwise.
1.5.Payment By Sponsor.  If all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be punctually paid when due, whether at demand, maturity, acceleration or otherwise, the Sponsor shall, immediately upon demand by the Indenture Trustee, and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of non-payment, notice of intention to accelerate the maturity, notice of acceleration of the maturity, or any other notice whatsoever, pay in lawful money of the United States of America, the amount due on the Guaranteed Obligations by remittance to the Payment Account. Such demand(s) may be made at any time coincident with or after the time for payment of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may be made from time to time with respect to the same or different items of Guaranteed Obligations. Such demand shall be deemed made, given and received if made, given or received in accordance with the notice provisions hereof.
1.6.No Duty To Pursue Others.  It shall not be necessary for the Indenture Trustee (and the Sponsor hereby waives any rights which Sponsor may have to require Indenture Trustee), in order to enforce the obligations of the Sponsor hereunder, first to (i) institute suit or exhaust its remedies against the Issuer or others liable on the Debt or the Guaranteed Obligations or any other person, (ii) enforce Indenture Trustee’s rights against any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure the Debt, (iii) enforce the Indenture Trustee’s rights against any other guarantors of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Property Owner Guaranty, (iv) join the Issuer or any others liable on the Guaranteed Obligations in any action seeking to enforce this Guaranty, (v) exhaust any remedies available to the Indenture Trustee against any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure the Debt, or (vi) resort to any other means of obtaining payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Indenture Trustee shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations.

1.8.Payment of Expenses.  In the event that the Sponsor should breach or fail to timely perform any provisions of this Guaranty, the Sponsor shall, promptly upon demand by the Indenture Trustee, pay the Indenture Trustee all reasonable costs and expenses (including but not limited to court costs and attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Indenture Trustee in the enforcement hereof or the preservation of the Indenture Trustee’s rights hereunder.  The covenant contained in this Section 1.8 shall survive the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.  
1.9.Effect of Bankruptcy.

1.10.Waiver of Subrogation, Reimbursement and Contribution.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, the Sponsor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, releases and abrogates any and all rights it may now or hereafter have under any agreement, at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating the Sponsor to the rights of the Indenture Trustee), to assert any claim against or seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from the Issuer or any other party liable for 
5
116991368\V-8

payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations for any payment made by the Sponsor under or in connection with this Guaranty or otherwise.

3.4.Sponsor’s Financial Condition.

ARTICLE IV.

SUBORDINATION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS
4.1.Subordination of All Sponsor Claims.  As used herein, the term “Sponsor Claims” shall mean all debts and liabilities of the Issuer to the Sponsor, whether such debts and liabilities now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligations of the Issuer thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the person or persons in whose favor such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by the Sponsor. The Sponsor Claims shall include without limitation all rights and claims of the Sponsor against the Issuer (arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise) as a result of the Sponsor’s payment of all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Sponsor shall not receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from the Issuer or any other party any amount upon the Sponsor Claims.
4.2.Claims in Bankruptcy.  In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor’s relief, or other insolvency proceedings involving Sponsor as debtor, the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to prove its claim in any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Sponsor Claims. Sponsor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Indenture Trustee. Should Indenture Trustee receive, for application upon the Guaranteed Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to the Sponsor, and which, as between the Issuer and the Sponsor, shall constitute a credit upon the Sponsor Claims, then upon payment to the Indenture Trustee in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Sponsor shall become subrogated to the rights of the Indenture Trustee to the extent that such payments to the Indenture Trustee on the Sponsor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Guaranteed Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Guaranteed Obligations which would have been unpaid if the Indenture Trustee had not received dividends or payments upon the Sponsor Claims.
10
116991368\V-8

4.3.Payments Held in Trust.  In the event that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guaranty, the Sponsor should receive any funds, payment, claim or distribution which is prohibited by this Guaranty, the Sponsor agrees to hold in trust for the Indenture Trustee an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and agrees that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions so received except to pay them promptly to the Indenture Trustee, and the Sponsor covenants promptly to pay the same to the Indenture Trustee.
4.4.Liens Subordinate.  Sponsor agrees that any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon the Issuer’s assets securing payment of the Sponsor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon the Issuer’s assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of the Sponsor or Indenture Trustee presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Sponsor shall not (i) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against the Issuer, or (ii) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on assets of the Issuer held by the Sponsor.

If the Issuer Manager and the Back-Up Manager fail to make a P&I Advance and the Indenture Trustee receives notice thereof, the Indenture Trustee will be required to make any required P&I Advance by 3:00 p.m. New York City time on the related Payment Date, subject to

(e)All Advances, together with Advance Interest thereon, shall be reimbursable in the first instance from collections from the related Leases and Properties and further as provided in Section 2.11(b) of the Indenture.

The determination by the Back-Up Manager that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be made in good faith. The determination by the Indenture Trustee that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be made in good faith. Each of the Back-Up Manager and the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on any determination by the Issuer Manager that an Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance.
(g)In making a nonrecoverability determination with respect to any P&I Advance, the Issuer Manager (including the Back-Up Manager as successor Issuer Manager) and the Back-up Manager may only consider the obligations of the Issuer under the terms of the Transaction Documents as they may have been modified, the related Collateral in its “as is” or then current conditions and the timing and availability of anticipated cash flows as modified by such party’s assumptions regarding the possibility and effect of future adverse changes, together with such other factors, including but not limited to an estimate of future expenses, timing of recovery, the inherent risk of a protracted period to complete liquidation or the potential inability to liquidate Collateral as a result of intervening creditor claims or of a bankruptcy proceeding affecting the Issuer and the effect thereof on the existence, validity and priority of any security interest encumbering the Collateral, the direct and indirect equity interests in the Issuer, available cash on 
32

deposit in the Collection Account, the future allocations and disbursements of cash on deposit in the Collection Account, and the net proceeds derived from any of the foregoing.
(i)    In the event any Advances made by the Issuer Manager, the Back-Up Manager or the Indenture Trustee shall at any time be outstanding, or any amounts of interest thereon shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay Advances and interest hereunder shall be applied first entirely to Advances (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon) made by the Indenture Trustee and the Back-Up Manager, as applicable, until such Advances (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon) made by the Indenture Trustee and the Back-Up Manager, as applicable, shall have been repaid in full and then to Advances (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon) made by the Issuer Manager.  Any costs or expenses in connection with any actions to be taken by the Issuer Manager or Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 11 shall be borne by the Issuer Manager or Special Servicer, as applicable.
Section 12.Withdrawals From the Collection Account and Liquidity Reserve Account. 
The applicable Account Control Agreement shall provide that on each Remittance Date the Collection Account Bank shall deliver the Available Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds for deposit into the Payment Account for application by the Indenture Trustee to make payments in accordance with the priorities set forth pursuant to Section 2.11(b) of the Indenture.

If amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, the Release Account, the Liquidity Reserve Account or the Exchange Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Property Manager shall:
(i)consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(ii)demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Issuer Manager that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Collection Account or the Release Account, as applicable.
(b)Prior to an Early Amortization Period, in the event that (i) any Property Owner elects to release a Property from the Collateral Pool under Section 25 or Section 28, (ii) Relinquished Property Proceeds are transferred from the Exchange Account to the Release Account in accordance with the terms of the applicable Master Exchange Agreement and the 
34

Escrow Agreement or (iii) amounts in connection with a Series Collateral Release are deposited into the Release Account pursuant to Section 33(c) and the Indenture amounts deposited in the Release Account shall be applied by the Issuer Manager, first, to reimburse the Issuer Manager, the Property Manager, the Special Servicer, the Back-Up Manager and the Indenture Trustee any amounts owed with respect to unreimbursed Extraordinary Expenses and Advances (plus Advance Interest) thereon and Emergency Property Expenses related to such Lease or Property and to pay the expenses related to such release and, second, either to (i) allow the Issuer to acquire a Qualified Substitute Property within twelve (12) months following the removal of the related Released Property or (ii) be deposited as Unscheduled Proceeds into the Collection Account. Any amounts remaining in the Release Account following the twelve (12) month period from the related release shall be transferred as Unscheduled Proceeds into the Collection Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during an Early Amortization Period, all amounts in the Release Account shall be deposited as Unscheduled Proceeds into the Collection Account and applied as Unscheduled Principal Payments on the Payment Date following the commencement of such Early Amortization Period.
(c)Whether or not the Issuer Manager directs the investment of funds in the Collection Account, the Release Account, the Liquidity Reserve Account, or the Exchange Reserve Account, (i) interest and investment income realized on funds deposited therein, to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, for the Collection Account, the Release Account or the Exchange Reserve Account for each Collection Period, shall be added to the Available Amount for such Collection Period and (ii) interest and investment income realized on funds deposited therein, to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, for the Liquidity Reserve Account shall remain on deposit therein until released in accordance with the Indenture.
(d)Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Indenture Trustee may take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
(e)Notwithstanding the investment of funds held in the Collection Account, the Release Account or the Exchange Reserve Account, for purposes of the calculations hereunder, including the calculation of the Available Amount, the amounts so invested shall be deemed to remain on deposit in the Collection Account, the Release Account or the Exchange Reserve Account, as applicable.
Section 14.Maintenance of Insurance Policies: Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. 
(a)The Property Manager (other than with respect to Specially Managed Units) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Managed Units) will use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Tenant to maintain for each Property all insurance coverage as is required under the terms of the related Lease (including for the avoidance of doubt, any environmental insurance policy); provided, that if and to the extent that 
35

any such Lease permits the lessor thereunder any discretion (by way of consent, approval or otherwise) as to the insurance coverage that the related Tenant is required to maintain, the Property Manager or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, will exercise such discretion in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard.  If such Tenant does not maintain the required insurance or, with respect to any environmental insurance policy in place as of the related Series Closing Date or Transfer Date, the Property Manager or Special Servicer will itself cause such insurance to be maintained with insurance companies or security or bonding companies qualified to write the related property insurance policies in the relevant jurisdiction that have a claims-paying ability rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best’s Key Rating Guide; provided, that neither the Property Manager nor the Special Servicer will be required to maintain such insurance if the Indenture Trustee (as mortgagee of record on behalf of the Noteholders) does not have an insurable interest or the Property Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has determined, in its reasonable judgment in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that either (i) such insurance is not available at a commercially reasonable rate and the subject hazards are at the time not commonly insured against by prudent owners of properties similar to the Property located in or around the region in which such Property is located or (ii) such insurance is F at any rate. The cost of any such insurance coverage obtained by the Property Manager or the Special Servicer will be a Property Protection Advance to be paid by the Issuer Manager, and such insurance coverage need not be obtained if the related Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.  All insurance policies maintained by the Property Manager or the Special Servicer pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence will contain (if they insure against loss to property) a “standard” mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Property Manager, as agent of and for the account of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, and will be issued by an insurer authorized under applicable law to issue such insurance. Any amounts collected by the Property Manager or the Special Servicer under any insurance policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Property or amounts to be released to the related Tenant, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard) will be distributed in the manner set forth under Section 22. 
(b)The Property Management Agreement will further provide that the Property Manager or the Special Servicer may satisfy the foregoing obligations by maintaining or causing to maintained a forced place or blanket policy and, in any such event, certain incremental costs of such insurance will constitute Property Protection Advances (and such insurance coverage will not be obtained if the related Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance).
(c)Each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer will be required to maintain a fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy or their equivalent that provides coverage against losses that may be sustained as a result of errors and omissions of the Property Manager’s, the Issuer Manager’s or Special Servicer’s officers, employees and agents in connection with its servicing obligations under the Property Management Agreement.  Such fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance shall be in such form and amount as would not adversely affect any rating assigned by any Rating Agency to the Notes.

Section 15.DSCR Reserve Account. On each Payment Date occurring during any DSCR Sweep Period, the Indenture Trustee shall deposit funds into the DSCR Reserve Account in accordance with Section 2.11(b) and 2.18 of the Indenture. The DSCR Reserve Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Issuer Manager shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee a calculation of the Monthly DSCR on or before each Remittance Date. The Issuer grants to the Indenture Trustee a first-priority perfected security interest in the DSCR Reserve Account and any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in the DSCR Reserve Account as additional security for payment of the Notes. Until disbursed or applied in accordance herewith, the DSCR Reserve Account shall constitute additional security for the Notes. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to the Indenture Trustee, apply any sums then present in the DSCR Reserve Account to the payment of the Notes in such order and priority as set forth in the Indenture.
Section 16.Servicing Compensation: Interest on Advances.
(a)As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Property Manager shall be entitled to receive the Property Management Fee with respect to each Property included in the Collateral Pool (excluding the Specially Managed Units, if any); provided, that, prior to the occurrence of a Fee Trigger Event, the Property Manager shall not collect any fees pursuant to this Agreement and fees that are not collected by the Property Manager shall not accrue or be considered compensation to the Property Manager.

37

otherwise released from the lien of the related Mortgage, or (ii) such Specially Managed Unit becomes a Corrected Unit. Earned but unpaid Special Servicing Fees shall be distributable monthly on the Payment Date by the Indenture Trustee out of general collections on the Leases and the Properties on deposit in the Payment Account pursuant to Section 2.11(b) of the Indenture. The Special Servicer’s right to receive the Special Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.

Section 17.Property Inspections: Collection of Financial Statements: Delivery of Certain Reports. 
(a)The Property Manager will be required to obtain a physical inspection with respect to each Property with respect to which the Property Manager has received notice from the Tenant or has actual knowledge that the Tenant is a non-renewal or termination risk, within a reasonable amount of time from receipt of such notice or knowledge. The Special Servicer will be required to obtain a physical inspection of each Property specially serviced by it within six (6) months after it becomes a Specially Managed Unit. The Special Servicer will be required to prepare a written report of each such inspection performed by it that describes the condition of the related Property and that specifies the existence with respect thereto of any sale, transfer or abandonment or any material change in its condition or value. The Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to any such inspection as a Property Protection Advance and such inspection need not be performed if such Property Protection Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.
(b)The Special Servicer, in the case of any Specially Managed Unit specially serviced by it, and the Property Manager, in the case of all other Leases, shall use reasonable efforts to collect and review the annual and quarterly financial statements of the related Lease Parties required to be provided under the related Lease.
Section 18.Management of Properties Relating to Defaulted Assets. 
(a)The Special Servicer and the Property Manager, as applicable, shall exercise reasonable efforts, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, to enforce a Defaulted Asset, including, without limitation, the commencement and prosecution of any eviction or foreclosure proceedings, as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. In the event any Property becomes a Terminated Lease Property, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to (i) with respect to such Terminated Lease Property, attempt to induce another Tenant to assume the obligations under the existing Lease, with or without modification, (ii) cause the lease of the Terminated Lease Property under a new Lease on economically desirable terms or (iii) dispose of the Property. The decision to enter into a lease assumption or re-lease the Terminated Lease Property shall be made by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Special Servicer shall pay all costs and expenses (other than costs or expenses that would, if incurred, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance) incurred by it in connection with the foregoing as a Property Protection Advance, and shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor as provided herein. If the Special Servicer is successful in re-leasing the Terminated Lease Property, a new Appraised Value will be obtained by the Special Servicer for the Terminated Lease Property in the Special Servicer’s discretion, and the costs of any such appraisal shall be a Property Protection Advance. If the Special Servicer causes the re-lease of any Terminated Lease Property, the Property Manager shall deliver to the applicable Rating Agency, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer an amended Lease Schedule reflecting the addition of such Lease to the Collateral Pool. Monthly Lease Payments on the modified or new Lease will be applied pursuant to the Indenture.
39

(b)If the Lease has not been assumed or the Terminated Lease Property  has not been leased to a new tenant and the Terminated Lease Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage pursuant to Section 18(h) below within twenty-four (24) months of becoming a Terminated Lease Property, the Special Servicer may offer to sell the Terminated Lease Property pursuant to this Section 18, for a fair price, free and clear of the lien of the related Mortgage, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such a sale would be in the best interests of the Noteholders. No Interested Person shall be obligated to submit a bid to purchase any such Terminated Lease Property. The Liquidation Proceeds shall be deposited into the Collection Account and applied as set forth herein.
(c)If and when the Special Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for purposes of establishing a fair price for any Terminated Lease Property for purposes of conducting a sale of such Terminated Lease Property pursuant to subsection (b) above, the Special Servicer is authorized to have an appraisal conducted by an Independent MAI-designated appraiser or other expert (the cost of which appraisal shall constitute a Property Protection Advance).
(d)Whether any cash bid constitutes a fair price for any Terminated Lease Property for purposes of Section 18(c) shall be determined by the Special Servicer or, if such cash bid is from an Interested Person, by the Indenture Trustee or, if the expected Liquidation Proceeds with respect to such Terminated Lease Property would be insufficient to provide reimbursement for all unreimbursed Advances made with respect to the subject Terminated Lease Property, together with any related Advance Interest thereon, by the Property Manager. In determining whether any bid received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any Terminated Lease Property, the Indenture Trustee shall be supplied with and may conclusively rely on the most recent appraisal conducted in accordance with Section 18(e).
(e) within the preceding 12-month period or, in the absence of any such appraisal, on a narrative appraisal prepared by an Independent MAI-designated appraiser or other expert retained by the Special Servicer, at Issuer’s cost or as a Property Protection Advance. Such appraiser shall be selected by the Special Servicer if the Special Servicer is not bidding with respect to a Terminated Lease Property and shall be selected by the Property Manager if the Special Servicer is bidding, provided that if the Property Manager and the Special Servicer are the same Person and such Person is bidding, then such appraiser shall be selected by the Indenture Trustee. In determining whether any bid constitutes a fair price for any such Terminated Lease Property, the Special Servicer, the Indenture Trustee (if applicable) or the Property Manager, as applicable, shall take into account, among other factors, the occupancy status and physical condition of the Terminated Lease Property, the state of the local economy, and, with respect to Terminated Lease Properties, the period and amount of any delinquency on the effected Lease. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer may charge prospective bidders fees that approximate the Special Servicer’s actual costs in the preparation and delivery of information pertaining to such sales or evaluating bids without obligation to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account.
(f)The Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of 
40

any Terminated Lease Property and the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. Any sale of a Terminated Lease Property shall be free and clear of the lien of the Indenture and shall be final and without recourse to the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee. If such sale is consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Property Manager, the Special Servicer or the Indenture Trustee shall have any liability to the Issuer or any Noteholder with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Property Manager, the Special Servicer or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be.
(g)The Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple bids are received contemporaneously, highest) cash bid received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Terminated Lease Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the highest cash bid if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such bid would be in the best interests of the Noteholders, and the Special Servicer may accept a lower cash bid if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that acceptance of such bid would be in the best interests of the Noteholders (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower bid is more likely to perform its obligations or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower bid are more favorable).
(h)At any time that a Terminated Lease Property has not already been sold or leased pursuant to the terms hereof, the related Issuer may at its option (i) release the lien of the Indenture and the related Mortgage from such Terminated Lease Property pursuant to Section 29 or (ii) exchange one or more Qualified Substitute Properties for the subject Terminated Lease Property.
(i)The Special Servicer shall, and is hereby authorized and empowered by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to, prepare, execute and deliver in its own name, on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee or any of them, the endorsements, assignments and other documents necessary to effectuate a sale of a Terminated Lease Property pursuant to this Section 18, and the Issuer shall execute and deliver any limited powers of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit B necessary to permit the Special Servicer to do so; provided, however, that none of the Property Owners, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be held liable for any misuse of any such power or power of attorney by the Special Servicer and the Special Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify the Property Owners, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee against, and hold the Property Owners, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless from, any loss or liability arising from any misuse in the exercise of such power or power of attorney.
(j)The Special Servicer shall give the Issuer, the Issuer Manager, the Indenture Trustee and the Property Manager not less than five (5) business days prior written notice of its intention to sell any Terminated Lease Property.
(k)If the Special Servicer determines that a lease assumption with modification, or re-lease, of a Defaulted Asset would maximize revenue received by the Issuer, and the terms of such new lease will produce rent that is 60% or less than the rent from the Defaulted Asset, then the Special Servicer may enter into any such lease for no more than 10 years, so long as the 
41

Special Servicer determines that entering into such reduced lease term would be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and in the best interests of the Noteholders.  In connection with the issuance of Related Series Notes, the Property Management Agreement may impose additional limitations on the Special Servicer with respect to the modification or re-leasing of leases that would result in reduced rent production in similar circumstances to the above, or may change the above limitations, in each case requiring the Special Servicer to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and in the best interests of the Noteholders.
Section 19.Renewals, Modifications, Waivers, Amendments; Consents and Other Matters. 
(a)The Issuer and the Property Manager may enter into renewals of Leases and new Leases that provide for rental rates comparable to existing local market rates and are on commercially reasonable terms. All new Leases executed after the Series Closing Date shall provide that they are subordinate to the Mortgage encumbering the applicable Property and that the lessee agrees to attorn to the Indenture Trustee or any purchaser at a sale by foreclosure or power of sale. The Property Manager and the Issuer Manager shall observe and perform the obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Issuer shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, at the request of any party hereto all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Leases as may be required by such party.
(b)Except as set forth herein, the Property Manager shall: (i) not (A) cause the amendment or modification, in any material respect, or termination of (other than in connection with a bona fide default by the Tenant thereunder beyond any applicable notice or grace period or with respect to the Lease Transfer Properties) any Lease; provided, however, that a reduction in rent with respect to a Lease will not be deemed to be a material modification if (1) the Monthly Lease Payment following such reduction is consistent with market prices for similar leases including offers of discounted lease rates in connection with extensions of the Lease term, (2) such reduction is in exchange for an extended lease term and (3) the Property Manager reasonably determines that such modification will not materially and adversely affect the interests of the applicable Property Owner, the Issuer or the Noteholders, (B) unless permitted by the related Lease and remitted and initiated thereunder by the related Tenant, collect rents more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits), or (C) execute any other Tenant assignment; and (ii) execute and deliver all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments as the Indenture Trustee shall reasonably require
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer, the Property Owners, the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer may, consistent with the Servicing Standard, agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive any Lease payment on, and permit the release of any related Tenant or any Lease Guarantor (and approve of a Lease Amendment without the consent of any person; provided, that (i) such Lease Amendment is entered into for a commercially reasonable purpose in an arm’s-length transaction on market terms; (ii) unless such Lease Amendment is approved by the Property Manager in accordance with the Servicing Standard, such Lease Amendment shall not cause the Monthly 
42

DSCR to be reduced below 1.25x and (iii) in the reasonable judgment of the party agreeing to the amendment, such Lease Amendment is in the best interest of the Noteholders and (other than in connection with a Tenant default or with respect to Lease Transfer Properties) will not have an adverse effect on the Collateral Value of such Property; provided, that any such Lease Amendment (x) in connection with a Delinquent Asset or Defaulted Asset, (y) that is required by the terms of the applicable Lease or (z) with respect to which the Rating Condition is satisfied, shall not be subject to the foregoing restrictions set forth above.
(d)Any Lease Amendment (x) in connection with a bona fide default by the Tenant, (y) that is required by the terms of any Lease or is solely within any Tenant’s control, or (z) with respect to which the Rating Condition is satisfied, shall not be subject to the foregoing restrictions.  The Property Manager or Special Servicer shall endeavor to cause the costs related to requesting and receiving any such Rating Condition to be paid by the Tenant; provided, that if the Property Manager or the Special Servicer is unable to cause the Tenant to pay such expenses, such expenses shall constitute an Extraordinary Expense of the Issuer.  Regardless of whether any Lease Amendment is material, the Property Manager will give the Indenture Trustee prompt written notice thereof and shall indicate whether such action is being taken pursuant to the preceding sentence and upon request will deliver a copy of any documents executed in connection therewith to the Rating Agency.
(e)All modifications, waivers, amendments and other actions entered into or taken in respect of the Lease are required to be in writing.  Each of the Property Manager and the Special Servicer is required to notify the other such party and the Issuer, the Issuer Manager and the Indenture Trustee, in writing, of any modification, waiver, amendment or other action entered into or taken in respect of any Lease as described above and the date thereof, and is required to deliver to the Custodian for deposit in the related Lease File an original counterpart of the agreements relating to such modification, waiver, amendment or other action promptly following the execution thereof.
(d)    None of the Issuer Manager, the Property Manager or the Special Servicer shall have any liability to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or to any other Person if its analysis and determination that an amendment or other action contemplated by this Section 19 would not materially reduce the likelihood of timely payment of amounts due thereon, or that such Amendment or other action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to the related Issuer on a present value basis than would liquidation, should prove to be wrong or incorrect, so long as the analysis and determination were made on a reasonable basis in accordance with the Servicing Standard in good faith by the Issuer, the Issuer Manager, the Property Manager or the Special Servicer, as the case may be.
(f)The Property Manager and the Special Servicer each may, as a condition to its granting any request by a Tenant for a consent, modification, waiver or indulgence, require such Tenant, to the extent permitted by the applicable Lease, or, if not so permitted, the Issuer shall pay to the Property Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as Additional Servicing Compensation, a reasonable or customary fee for additional services performed in connection with such request.
43

(g)    From time to time, subject to the Servicing Standard, the Property Manager or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled (on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee) to release an immaterial portion of any Property that it is then administering from the lien of the Indenture and the Mortgage (and simultaneously release the Issuer’s interest in such portion of such Property) or consent to, or make, an immaterial modification with respect to any Property that it is then administering; provided, that, such Property Manager or Special Servicer shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Indenture Trustee (upon which the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely with no obligation to verify, confirm or otherwise review and with no liability therefor) that it reasonably believes that such release or modification (both individually and collectively with any other similar releases or modifications with respect to such Property) will not materially adversely affect (i) the Appraised Value of such Property or (ii) the Noteholders’ interests in such Property.  Following the Indenture Trustee’s receipt of such Officer’s Certificate, the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be provided to it and are reasonably necessary to effect such release or modification.
Section 20.Transfer of Servicing Between Property Manager and Special Servicer; Record Keeping. 
(a)Upon determining that a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with respect to any Lease and if the Property Manager is not also the Special Servicer, the Property Manager shall immediately give notice thereof, and shall deliver the related Servicing File, to the Special Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Back-Up Manager and shall provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents (or copies thereof) and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Lease and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to the extent in Property Manager’s possession, to enable it to assume its functions hereunder with respect thereto without acting through a Sub-Manager. The Property Manager shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of Special Servicer’s request following the occurrence of each related Servicing Transfer Event.
(b)Upon determining that a Specially Managed Unit has become a Corrected Unit and if the Property Manager is not also the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall immediately give notice thereof, and shall return the related Servicing File, to the Property Manager and, upon giving such notice and returning such Servicing File, to the Property Manager, (i) the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Lease, shall terminate (ii) the Special Servicer’s right to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to such Lease , shall terminate and (iii) the obligations of the Property Manager to service and administer such Lease shall resume, in each case, effective as of the first day of the following calendar month.
(c)In servicing any Specially Managed Unit, the Special Servicer shall provide to the Custodian, for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee, originals of documents included within the definition of “Lease File”, if any, for inclusion in the related Lease File (with a copy of each such original to the Property Manager), and copies of any additional related Lease information, including correspondence with the related Tenant.
44

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Property Manager and the Special Servicer are the same Person, all notices, certificates, information and consents required to be given by the Property Manager to the Special Servicer or vice versa shall be deemed to be given without the necessity of any action on such Person’s part.
Section 21.Sub-Management Agreements.
(a)The Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer may delegate their respective management and servicing obligations in respect of the Leases and the Properties managed and serviced thereby pursuant to this Agreement to one or more Sub-Managers; provided, that each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer will remain liable for its servicing obligations under the Property Management Agreement as if the Property Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable, were servicing, administering or special servicing, as applicable, such Properties and the Leases directly. Each Sub-Management Agreement must provide that, if for any reason the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer is no longer acting in such capacity, the Back-Up Manager, the Indenture Trustee or any successor property manager or special servicer may assume such party’s rights and obligations under such Sub-Management Agreement (arising after the date of assumption) or terminate such Sub-Management Agreement without payment of a penalty or a fee. If KeyBank assumes the role of Property Manager, KeyBank will also become the Special Servicer. If KeyBank assumes the role of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer and is subsequently terminated as Special Servicer, KeyBank will also be terminated as Property Manager. If KeyBank assumes the role of Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and Special Servicer and is subsequently terminated as Property Manager, KeyBank will also be terminated as Special Servicer.
(b)The Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or Special Servicer will be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Sub-Manager, irrespective of whether its compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.  Each Sub-Manager retained hereby will be reimbursed by the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or Special Servicer, as the case may be, for Advances that it makes, as though the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or Special Servicer had made such Advances and to the same extent the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or Special Servicer would be reimbursed under the Property Management Agreement.
(c)    The Property Manager and the Special Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuer, shall (at no expense to the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee) monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of their respective Sub-Managers under the related Sub-Management Agreements.  Such enforcement, including the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Management Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Property Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in its good faith and reasonable judgment, would require were it the owner of the Properties.  Subject to the terms of the related Sub-Management Agreement, the Property Manager and the Special Servicer shall each have the right to (in its sole 
45

(viii)either the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; 
57

(ix)either the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer assigns any of its obligations hereunder to any third party other than as permitted under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and does not remedy such breach within five (5) days of such assignment; 
(x)any of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer fails to observe reporting requirements, which failure remains unremedied for five (5) days after the date on which written notice of such breach, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer; provided, that with respect to the delivery of the Determination Date report, such period shall be for one (1) day after such notice; 
(xi)CIM Group, LLC or an affiliate thereof shall (x) cease to control the Property Manager without the consent of the Requisite Global Majority or (y) shall cease to manage the assets of Sponsor;  
(xii)an Indenture Event of Default under clauses (a), (b), (c), (f), (g) or (j) of such definition shall have occurred; 
(xiii)any other Indenture Event of Default, other than an Indenture Event of Default under clauses (a), (b), (c), (f), (g) or (j) of such definition, shall have occurred and the Indenture Trustee shall have accelerated the Notes; or 
(xiv)the Monthly DSCR shall be less than 1.10x for three (3) consecutive Payment Dates and such reduction in Monthly DSCR is reasonably determined by the Back-Up Manager (unless the Back-Up Manager is then serving as Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer) or the Requisite Global Majority to be primarily attributable to acts or omissions of the Property Manager, provided, however, no more than one time since the initial Series Closing Date, to the extent that such act or omission occurred as a consequence of extraordinary events outside the control of the Property Manager, such acts or omissions shall be deemed not to be a Servicer Replacement Event as described in this clause (xiv).
(b)When a single entity acts as Property Manager and Special Servicer, a Servicer Replacement Event in one capacity shall constitute a Servicer Replacement Event in each capacity; provided, however, that, subject to this Section 37, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the holders of the Notes may at their option elect to terminate the Property Manager or the Special Servicer in one or the other capacity rather than both such capacities. A Servicer Replacement Event with respect to either the Property Manager or the Issuer Manager, respectively, shall constitute a Servicer Replacement Event for the Issuer Manager or the Property Manager, respectively. Each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer will notify the Indenture Trustee and the Back-Up Manager in writing of the occurrence of a Servicer Replacement Event or an event that, with the giving of notice or the expiration of any cure period, or both, would constitute a Servicer Replacement Event promptly upon obtaining knowledge thereof.
58

Section 38.Appointment of Successor Servicer. (a) Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Servicer Replacement Event (other than under clauses (ii) or (iii) of the definition thereof) with respect to the initial Property Manager, the initial Issuer Manager or the initial Special Servicer (in either case, the “Defaulting Party”), the Indenture Trustee will deliver a notice in writing to the Noteholders (with a copy of such notice to the Defaulting Party) advising the Noteholders of their right to approve the removal of the Defaulting Party in accordance with the Property Management Agreement and the Indenture or to waive such Servicer Replacement Event.  In the event that the Noteholders representing the Requisite Global Majority have either approved of the removal of the Defaulting Party in accordance with the Property Management Agreement and the Indenture or not waived the occurrence of such Servicer Replacement Event within thirty (30) days of such notice, the Indenture Trustee will cause such Defaulting Party to be immediately replaced with the Back-Up Manager and terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Defaulting Party. Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Replacement Event under clause (ii) or (iii) of the definition thereof, with respect to a Defaulting Party, the Indenture Trustee shall immediately terminate such Defaulting Party and replace it with the Back-Up Manager.  When a single entity acts as Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and Special Servicer, a Servicer Replacement Event in one capacity shall constitute a Servicer Replacement Event in each capacity; provided, however, that, the Indenture Trustee shall upon direction from the Requisite Global Majority elect to terminate the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer in one or the other capacity rather than all such capacities.
Except as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Replacement Event with respect to the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer, the Indenture Trustee (i) may (with the consent of the Requisite Global Majority) and (ii) shall at the direction of the Requisite Global Majority cause the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer to be replaced with a successor Property Manager (the “Successor Property Manager”), a successor Issuer Manager (the “Successor Issuer Manager”) or a successor Special Servicer (the “Successor Special Servicer”).
(b)From and after the receipt by the Defaulting Party of such written notice, all authority and power of the Defaulting Party under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Issuer (other than as a holder of any Note or Property Owner Membership Interest) or the Leases or Properties or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Back-Up Manager pursuant to and under this Section 38, and, without limitation, the Back-Up Manager is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Defaulting Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Leases, Properties and related documents, or otherwise.
(c)The appointment of a Successor Property Manager, Successor Issuer Manager or Successor Special Servicer will be subject to, among other things, (i) the satisfaction of the Rating Condition and (ii) the written agreement of the Successor Property Manager, Successor Issuer Manager or Successor Special Servicer to be bound by the terms and conditions of this 
59

Agreement, together with an Opinion of Counsel regarding the enforceability of such agreement. Subject to the foregoing, any person, including any holder of Notes or Property Owner Membership Interests or any Affiliate thereof, may be appointed as the Successor Property Manager, Successor Issuer Manager or Successor Special Servicer.
(d)In the event that a Successor Property Manager, Successor Issuer Manager or Successor Special Servicer has failed to assume the responsibilities of the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer as provided in this Agreement within thirty (30) days of written notice of termination of the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer, as applicable, the Back-Up Manager will be all of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer, under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Issuer will have the right to replace the Back-Up Manager acting as Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer without cause upon thirty (30) days’ written notice. If KeyBank is terminated as the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer under this Agreement, such termination shall be deemed to automatically terminate KeyBank as the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer and the Back-Up Manager, as applicable. In addition, if the Back-Up Manager, as Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer makes any Advances or incurs any other expenses in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, any Successor Property Manager will be required to reimburse the Back-Up Manager, as predecessor Property Manager, predecessor Issuer Manager or predecessor Special Servicer, for such Advances and other expenses incurred in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement as a condition to its appointment as successor Property Manager.
(e)Each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer agrees that, if it is terminated pursuant to this Section 38, it shall promptly (and in any event not later than ten (10) days subsequent to its receipt of the notice of termination) provide the Indenture Trustee and Back-Up Manager with all documents and records in its possession requested thereby to enable the Back-Up Manager (or such other applicable successor) to assume the Property Manager or Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, functions hereunder, and shall cooperate with the Back-Up Manager (or such other applicable successor) in effecting the termination of the Property Manager’s, Issuer Manager’s or Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, responsibilities and rights hereunder, including the transfer within two (2) Business Days to the Back-Up Manager (or such other applicable successor) for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer to the Collection Account or thereafter be received by or on behalf of it with respect to any Lease or Property (provided, however, that the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer each shall, if terminated pursuant to this Section 38, continue to be obligated for or entitled to pay or receive all costs in connection with such transfer and all amounts accrued or owing by or to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of Advances or otherwise). In the event any Advances made by the Issuer Manager shall at any time be outstanding, or any amounts of interest thereon shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay Advances and interest hereunder shall be applied first entirely to Advances made by the Indenture Trustee (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon) until such Advances made by the Indenture Trustee (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon) shall have been repaid in full, then to Advances made by 
60

the Back-up Manager (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon) until such Advances made by the Back-up Manager (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon) shall be been repaid in full, and then the Issuer Manager (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon). Any costs or expenses in connection with any actions to be taken by the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer pursuant to this paragraph shall be borne by the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer, as the case may be, and to the extent not paid by such defaulting party, such expense shall be borne by the Issuer and paid from amounts distributed pursuant to Section 2.11(b) of the Indenture. In the event that the Back-Up Manager cannot serve, the Indenture Trustee may designate a Person to serve as Back-Up Manager hereunder to replace any Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer that has resigned or otherwise ceased to serve as Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer. The Indenture Trustee shall so designate a Person to so serve by the delivery to the Issuer, the Property Manager, Issuer Manager and the existing Special Servicer of a written notice stating such designation.
Section 39.Back-Up Manager. 
(a)The Back-Up Manager shall maintain current servicing records and systems concerning the Properties and the Leases in order to enable it to timely and efficiently assume the responsibilities of the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(b)Subject to Section 38, following a Servicer Replacement Event, the Property Manager shall arrange for the delivery to the Back-Up Manager of all of the Servicing Files, which Servicing Files shall contain sufficient data to permit the Back-Up Manager to assume the duties of the Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer hereunder without delay. Subject to Section 38, following the Servicer Replacement Event with respect to the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall arrange for the delivery to the Back-Up Manager of each of the Servicing Files for any Specially Managed Unit, which Servicing Files shall contain sufficient data to permit the Back-Up Manager to assume the duties of the Special Servicer hereunder without delay. If KeyBank is the Back-Up Manager, (i) any appointment of Back-Up Manager as Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer shall be deemed to be an appointment of Back-Up Manager as each of Property Manager, Issuer Manager and Special Servicer and (ii) in the event KeyBank is terminated as Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer, KeyBank shall automatically be terminated as Property Manager, Issuer Manager and Special Servicer. In the event KeyBank is terminated as Sub-Manager under the Sub-Management Agreement, it shall automatically be terminated as Property Manager, Issuer Manager, Special Servicer and Back-Up Manager, as applicable.
(c)Subject to Section 38, following a Servicer Replacement Event, the Back-Up Manager shall use reasonable efforts to diligently complete the physical transfer of servicing from the terminated Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer with the cooperation of such Defaulting Party. From and after the date physical transfer of servicing is completed (the “Back-Up Servicing Transfer Date”), the Back-Up Manager shall service or specially service the Properties and the Leases in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement with all the rights 
61

and obligations of the Property Manager, Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer and shall have no liability or responsibility with respect to any obligations of each Defaulting Party, arising or accruing prior to the Back-Up Servicing Transfer Date. The Issuer, if it determines in its reasonable discretion that enforcement rights or remedies are available to the Noteholders against the terminated Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer and it is prudent under the circumstances to enforce such rights, agree to enforce their rights under this Agreement against the terminated Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer, including any rights they have to enforce each Defaulting Party’s obligation to fully cooperate in the orderly transfer and transition of servicing and otherwise comply with the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Back-Up Manager discovers or becomes aware of any errors in any records or data of each Defaulting Party which impairs its ability to perform its duties hereunder, the Back-Up Manager shall notify the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in writing of such errors and shall, at each Defaulting Party’s expense (or, if not paid by such party, as a Property Protection Advance) and upon the Issuer’s direction, undertake to correct or reconstruct such records or data.
(d)From and after the date of this Agreement until the Back-Up Servicing Transfer Date, the Property Manager shall provide or cause to be provided to the Back-Up Manager on or before the 20th day of each month, in electronic form, a complete data tape of the Lease Schedule and such other information as the Issuer may reasonably deem necessary, including all information necessary to determine the Release Price, and shall make available to the Back-Up Manager a copy of each Determination Date Report. In addition, the Property Manager shall provide all other documents and materials as are reasonably requested by the Back-Up Manager. The Back-Up Manager will perform an initial comprehensive data integrity review and a monthly review of this information to determine whether it provides adequate information to enable the Back-Up Manager to perform its obligations hereunder as the Back-Up Manager. To the extent that the Back-Up Manager determines within ten (10) calendar days of its receipt of such information that such information is inadequate for the Back-Up Manager to perform its obligations as the Back-Up Manager, the Back-Up Manager will provide prompt written notice to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Property Manager identifying any deficiencies in such information that do not enable the Back-Up Manager to perform its obligations as the Back-Up Manager. The Property Manager shall use its best efforts to provide any such deficient information to the Back-Up Manager within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of such notice from the Back-Up Manager.
(e)Within ten (10) Business Days of the date of receipt from the Property Manager, the Back-Up Manager shall, in order to understand the purpose of each data field (and the interrelationships among such data fields), review the form of Determination Date Report in the form agreed to by the Issuer Manager, the Indenture Trustee and the Back-Up Manager. Provided the data in the Determination Date Report is in a format readable by the Back-Up Manager, the Back-Up Manager shall create a set of conversion routines and database mapping programs, as necessary, that will enable the Back-Up Manager to (i) receive such data from the Property Manager on a monthly basis and to ensure that the data is readable, and (ii) independently generate such Determination Date Reports following the Back-Up Servicing Transfer Date; provided, however, that the Back-Up Manager shall have no obligations with 
62

respect to the information contained in the Determination Date Report with respect to the U.S. Risk Retention Agreement.
(f)On a monthly basis, the Back-Up Manager shall (x) verify receipt of the Determination Date Report required to be delivered by the Issuer Manager, and (y) verify that such records and data are in a readable format.
(g)The Back-Up Manager may resign from its obligations under this Agreement (i) pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 44, and (ii) other than in connection with a resignation under the last paragraph of Section 44, if the Back-Up Manager identifies a successor back-up manager who agrees to undertake the obligations of the Back-Up Manager under this Agreement and provides the Indenture Trustee with written confirmation of satisfaction of the Rating Condition.
Section 40.Additional Remedies of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee upon a Servicer Replacement Event.  During the continuance of any Servicer Replacement Event, so long as such Servicer Replacement Event shall not have been remedied, in addition to the rights specified in Section 37, the Issuer shall have the right, and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies of the holders of the Property Owner Membership Interests and the Notes (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Servicer Replacement Event.
Section 41.Term of Service; Property Manager and Special Servicer Not to Resign.
(a)The Issuer may, upon written consent by the Indenture Trustee acting at the direction of the Requisite Global Majority, and written notice (without any requirement of consent) to the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer, transfer the servicing duties and obligations of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer to a new servicer; provided, that if the Indenture Trustee shall not have received the consent of the Requisite Global Majority within four (4) months after the making of such request, such consent shall be deemed granted unless the consent is not approved by the Requisite Global Majority. The Indenture Trustee’s written consent to any such transfer shall be contingent upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee, upon not less than fifteen (15) Business Days’ notice by the Issuer to the Rating Agency, of written confirmation from: (1) the Rating Agency that such appointment will not adversely affect the higher of (A) the then current rating of any Class of the Notes and (B) the rating of any Class of Notes on the related Issuance Date of such Notes; (2) the replacement Property Manager and Special Servicer of its acceptance of its appointment; and (3) consent by the Requisite Global Majority. The written consent or 
63

confirmation may be made by facsimile confirmed in a written notice delivered to the Indenture Trustee by first class mail, postage prepaid, personal delivery or certified mail. The Issuer and the replacement Property Manager, Issuer Manager and Special Servicer shall execute and deliver a transfer agreement (the “Servicing Transfer Agreement”) mutually agreed upon in advance and effective on the transfer date (the “Servicing Transfer Date”), whereby the replacement Property Manager and the Special Servicer will agree to perform all of the duties and obligations of the Property Manager and the Special Servicer under this Agreement. The replacement Property Manager, Issuer Manager and Special Servicer shall be entitled to payment of a prorated portion (which shall be based on actual days of service and a year of 365/366 days) of the Property Management Fee, Issuer Management Fee and the Special Servicing Fee during its term of service. Each Servicing Transfer Agreement shall include any additional terms and provisions that the parties to this Agreement reasonably determine are necessary or appropriate and which additional terms and provisions shall be approved by all the parties to the Servicing Transfer Agreement, which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Servicing Transfer Agreement shall contain a provision stating that the former Property Manager, Issuer Manager and Special Servicer is relieved from all liability under this Agreement for acts or omissions occurring after the Servicing Transfer Date.
(b)None of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Back-Up Manager or the Special Servicer shall resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it, except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it, the other activities of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Back-Up Manager or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, so causing such a conflict being of a type and nature carried on by the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Back-Up Manager or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, at the date of this Agreement. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer or the Back-Up Manager, as applicable, shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect that shall be delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee. No such resignation shall become effective until the Back-Up Manager or another successor shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the resigning party hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Back-Up Manager and the Special Servicer may cause all of the obligations and duties imposed on it by this Agreement to be assumed by, and may assign its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to, with the prior written approval of the Issuer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, an Affiliate or a servicer that is not an Affiliate, in each case, upon satisfaction of the Rating Condition, and the assumption by the assignee of all of the obligations and duties of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Back-Up Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable. Upon any such assignment and assumption by the assignee of all of the obligations of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Back-Up Manager and/or the Special Servicer, the assignor shall be relieved from all liability hereunder for acts or omissions of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable, occurring after the date of the assignment and assumption.
(c)Except as expressly provided herein, none of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer shall assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges 
64

hereunder to any other Person or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint, any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by it hereunder, or cause any other Person to assume such duties, covenants or obligations. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer are transferred by an assignment and assumption to a successor thereto, the entire amount of compensation payable to the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, that accrues pursuant hereto from and after the date of such transfer shall be payable to such successor.
(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, KeyBank may resign as the Back-Up Manager, Property Manager, Issuer Manager and Special Servicer (provided that upon such resignation, KeyBank shall be deemed to have resigned from all such duties) upon the issuance of any Series of Notes after the initial Issuance Date, and upon such resignation a successor Property Manager, Issuer Manager, Special Servicer or Back-Up Manager, as the case may be, shall be appointed in connection with the issuance of any such Series and otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 42.Rights of Certain Persons in Respect of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer. Each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer shall afford to the other and, also, to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Back-Up Manager, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours (a) access to all records maintained by it relating to the Properties and Leases included in the Collateral Pool and in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder, to the extent not prohibited by confidentiality (including attorney-client privilege), contract or applicable law, and (b) access to such of its officers as are responsible for such obligations. Upon reasonable request, the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer shall each furnish the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee with its most recent financial statements and such other information as it possesses, and which it is not prohibited by confidentiality (including attorney-client privilege), applicable law or contract from disclosing, regarding its business, affairs, property and condition, financial or otherwise. The Issuer may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Property Manager and the Special Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer hereunder, or exercise the rights of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that none of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by any the Issuer or its designee. The Issuer shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by or with respect to the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer.
Section 43.Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer as Owner of Notes. 
(a)The Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Back-Up Manager or its Affiliates, may become the holder of any Notes or the Issuer Interests with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Property Manager, the Special Servicer or any 
65

such Affiliate. Subject to Section 20, if, at any time during which the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates is the holder of any Note or Issuer Interests, the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer proposes to take or omit to take action (i) which action or omission is not expressly prohibited by the terms hereof and would not, in the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer’s good faith judgment, violate the Servicing Standard, and (ii) which action, if taken, or omission, if made, might nonetheless, in the Property Manager’s, the Issuer Manager’s or the Special Servicer’s good faith judgment, be considered by other Persons to violate the Servicing Standard, the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer may, but need not, seek the approval of the Noteholders and the holders of the Issuer Interests to such action or omission by delivering to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee a written notice that (a) states that it is delivered pursuant to this Section 43, (b) identifies the portion of Notes and Issuer Interests beneficially owned by the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and (c) describes in reasonable detail the action that the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, proposes to take. Upon receipt of such notice, the Issuer shall forward such notice to the applicable holders of the Issuer Interests. If, at any time, the holders of Issuer Interests representing greater than 50% of the Issuer Interests and a Requisite Global Majority (calculated without regard to the Notes or Issuer Interests beneficially owned by the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer or their respective Affiliates, as applicable) separately consent in writing to the proposal described in the related notices, and if the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer shall act as proposed in the written notice, and if the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, takes action or omits to take action as proposed in such notices, such action or omission will be deemed to comply with the Servicing Standard. It is not the intent of the foregoing provision that the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer be permitted to invoke the procedure set forth herein with respect to routine servicing matters arising hereunder, but rather in the case of unusual circumstances.
Section 44.Indemnities.
(a)Each of the Property Owners agrees to, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend and hold each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer (including any replacement Property Manager, Issuer Manager or Special Servicer), the Indenture Trustee and the Back-up Manager harmless from and against any and all suits, liabilities, damages, or claims for damages (including any reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable costs and expenses relating to any such suits, liabilities or claims), in any way relating to the Properties, the Manager’s performance of the Services hereunder, or the exercise by the Manager of the powers or authorities herein or hereafter granted to Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Back-up Manager, except for those actions, omissions and breaches of Manager in relation to which each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer  has agreed to indemnify the Property Owners pursuant to Section 44(b).
(b)Each of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Property Owners harmless from and against any and all suits, 
66

liabilities, damages, or claims for damages (including any reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable costs and expenses relating to any such suits, liabilities or claims), in any way relating to (i) any acts or omissions of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer, as applicable, or their respective agents, officers or employees in the performance of their duties hereunder constituting fraud, negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) any material breach of any representation or warranty made by the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager and the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder.
(c)If any action or proceeding is brought against an Indemnified Party with respect to which indemnity may be sought under this Section 44, the Indemnitor, upon written notice from the Indemnified Party, shall assume the investigation and defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and payment of all expenses. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the Indemnitor shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of such separate counsel unless such separate counsel is employed with the written approval and consent of the Indemnitor, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or refused.
(d)The indemnities in this Section 44 shall survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement.
(e)The indemnities payable under this Section 44 by the Property Owners shall be subject to the availability of funds for such purpose in accordance with Section 5.04 of the Indenture.
Section 45.Miscellaneous.
(a)Amendments. No amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and executed and delivered by the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager, the Special Servicer and the Property Owner sought to be bound thereby; provided that, until the Indenture has been terminated in accordance with its terms and all obligations due and owing thereunder and under the other Transaction Documents have been fully satisfied, any material amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall also require the consent of the Indenture Trustee and satisfaction of the Rating Condition (it being understood that none of the foregoing shall require the consent of any Noteholder) and be subject to the terms and provisions of the Indenture governing amendments, supplements and other modifications. No failure by any party hereto to insist on the strict performance of any obligation, covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Agreement, or to exercise any right or remedy available upon a breach of this Agreement, shall constitute a waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement. None of the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer shall be bound by any amendment, supplement, or other modification to any other Transaction Document which is materially adverse to the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager or the Special Servicer, as applicable, unless the Property Manager, the Issuer Manager' or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has consented thereto; however the Property Manager’s, the Issuer Manager’s or the Special Servicer’s consent shall not otherwise be required as a condition for any such amendment, supplement, or other modification to be effective for all other 
67

purposes. No amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of this Agreement which is or may reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the Back-Up Manager shall be effective unless the Back-Up Manager has consented thereto; provided, however, that the Back-Up Manager’s consent shall not otherwise be required as a condition for any such amendment, supplement, or other modification to be effective for all other purposes.  In addition, the parties hereto agree that no modifications or amendments will be made to the definition of “Lease File” herein without the written consent of the Custodian.
