(vi) The Mortgage obligates the related Borrower to take out and maintain the classes and amounts of insurance coverages which conform to generally accepted utility industry standards for such classes and amounts of coverages of utilities of the size and character of such Borrower and the Borrower is in compliance with such obligations. The Mortgage obligates the Borrower thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Borrower’s cost and expense, and on the Borrower’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage (or, in the case of an Indenture Borrower, the trustee thereunder) to advance or to procure from others all sums required to maintain such insurance at Borrower’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Borrower.

(vii) As of the date the Qualified Loan was made to the applicable Borrower, any and all material requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, real estate settlement procedures or disclosure laws applicable to the origination of such Qualified Loan were complied with.

(viii) Each Mortgage has not been satisfied, rescinded or canceled, and the related Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, except for partial releases of the Mortgaged Property done in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures.

(ix) The Mortgage creates a validly recorded, filed and perfected mortgage lien shared pari passu and pro rata by the lenders that are parties to the Mortgage on the Borrower’s real property included in the Mortgaged Property.

conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording which do not materially adversely affect the value of the Mortgaged Property, (C) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property and (D) encumbrances customarily permitted by utility industry mortgages.

(x) Each Loan Agreement, the Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are valid and binding obligations of the applicable Borrower, enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors and (B) general principles of equity, whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(xi) The proceeds of the Qualified Loan have been fully disbursed to or for the account of the Borrower and there is no obligation for the Mortgagee to advance additional funds thereunder. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Qualified Loan and the recording of the Mortgage have been paid, and the Borrower is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid to the Mortgagee pursuant to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.

(xii) No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event has occurred which, with the passage of time or with the giving of notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute such an Event of Default. For purposes of this clause (xii), “Event of Default” is defined in each of the Mortgages in a manner consistent with the definition of such phrase customarily utilized in utility industry mortgages.

(xiii) There is no proceeding pending or to the Seller’s knowledge threatened for the condemnation of all or any material portion of the Mortgaged Property and such Mortgaged Property has not been damaged by waste, fire or other casualty to such an extent as to materially adversely affect the value of the Mortgaged Property.

(xiv) To the Seller’s knowledge, there is nothing relating to or involving the Qualified Loan, the Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property, the Borrower or the Borrower’s credit standing that can reasonably be expected to (a) cause the Qualified Loan to become delinquent, or (b) adversely affect the Qualified Loan’s value or marketability.

(xv) The Loan Agreement, Mortgage and Mortgage Note permit–and such documents and instrument were not originated under and are not subject to laws which would prohibit or restrict–the sale, transfer or assignment of the Qualified Loan, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the Mortgage Note as contemplated by this Master Agreement and the Transaction Documents or the enforcement thereof by the Purchaser or its assignee.

(xvi) The Mortgaged Property is not subject to any bankruptcy proceeding or foreclosure proceeding and the Borrower has not filed for protection under applicable bankruptcy laws.

(xvii) No fraud or misrepresentation of a material fact was committed or made by the Seller in connection with the Qualified Loan made to the applicable Borrower.

(xix) The Seller has delivered to the Custodian a complete Mortgage File for the Qualified Loan.

(xx) Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment contemplated herein, the Seller was the sole owner and holder of the Qualified Loan, the Seller had good and marketable title thereto, and the Seller had full right and authority to transfer and sell the Qualified Loan to the Purchaser free and clear of any encumbrance, lien, pledge or security interest.

(xxi) The Qualified Loan is denominated and payable only in United States dollars and the related Borrower is a corporation or other legal entity organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia or a territory of the United States.

(xxii) To the Seller’s knowledge, the Mortgaged Property is in material compliance with all applicable zoning laws and environmental laws pertaining to environmental hazards, and the related Borrower has not received any notice of any violation or potential violation of such laws.

(xxiii) The Qualified Loan is represented by only one executed Mortgage Note.

(xxiv) The Mortgage Note is a “promissory note” within the meaning of Article 9 of the New York UCC.

(xxv) The loan narrative for a Qualified Loan submitted by the Seller to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac in advance of the related Sale Date was prepared or updated no more than one year prior to the Sale Date, and the Seller is not aware of any material adverse change regarding the Borrower or the Qualified Loan that is not reflected in such loan narrative, or as previously communicated to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac in writing.

(xxvi) For each Covered Loan, the Qualified Loan meets the Covered Loan Criteria as of the Sale Date.

(j) Upon discovery by any party hereto of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4.03, such discovering party shall give prompt written notice to the other party and, if such breach is of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4.01(i) that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser in the related

Qualified Loan, then the Seller shall either (i) cure such breach in all material respects or (ii) repurchase the Defective Loan in question from the Purchaser by remitting the Repurchase Price to an account designated by the Purchaser.

(k) It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4.03 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Custodian and will continue in full force and effect for the remaining life of the related Qualified Loan, notwithstanding termination of this Master Agreement for any reason.

ARTICLE V
Administration and Servicing of Qualified Loans

Section 5.01. Servicing of the Qualified Loans.

(a) General Servicing Provision. The Master Servicer hereby agrees to service and administer the Qualified Loans sold pursuant to this Master Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Master Agreement, applicable law and the terms of the Qualified Loans. In connection with such servicing and administration, the Master Servicer shall, consistent with and subject to all other servicing-related provisions in this Master Agreement, have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through sub-servicers, to do or cause to be done any and all things, in connection with such servicing and administration, that the Master Servicer may deem necessary or desirable and consistent with the terms of this Master Agreement including, but not limited to, the power and authority, subject to the terms hereof, (a) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Purchaser, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (b) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner provided in this Master Agreement), (c) to collect any Other Insurance Proceeds and other Cash Liquidation amounts, and (d) with ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac’s prior consent, to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Qualified Loan. In servicing and administering the Qualified Loans, the Master Servicer shall employ procedures in accordance with the Customary Servicing Procedures of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer will exercise the same care in servicing the Qualified Loans that it exercises in servicing Qualified Loans to the same Borrower held in the Master Servicer’s portfolio. The Master Servicer will act in the best interest of the Purchaser in servicing Qualified Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer, in its own name or in the name of the Purchaser, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Purchaser, when the Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Purchaser any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Qualified Loans and with respect to the related Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Purchaser such documents requiring execution and delivery by it as is necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to service and administer the Qualified Loans to the extent that the Master Servicer is not permitted to execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding sentence. In addition to the foregoing, the Purchaser shall provide a power of attorney or other appropriate authorization as shall be necessary or desirable, in the Master Servicer’s judgment, to enable the Master Servicer to act as

the agent of the Purchaser as the mortgagee under each Mortgage and as the secured party under each Additional Collateral Document. Upon receipt of such documents, the Purchaser, upon the direction of the Master Servicer, shall promptly execute such documents and deliver them to the Master Servicer.

(b) Reserved.

(c) Agency Relationship Only. The relationship of the Master Servicer (and of any successor to the Master Servicer as servicer under this Master Agreement) to the Purchaser under this Master Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venture, partner or agent.

(d) Modifications, Waivers, Consents. In accordance with the terms of this Master Agreement, the Master Servicer may waive, modify, amend or vary any term of any Qualified Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Borrower if, in the Master Servicer’s judgment and consistent with Customary Servicing Procedures, such waiver, modification, consent, postponement or indulgence will make it more likely that such Borrower will be able to successfully repay the Qualified Loan in question; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not take any of the following actions without, in each such case, giving the Purchaser at least 10 Business Day’s prior written notice of its intention to do so (each such notice, a “10 Business Day Notice”): (i) waive any event of default (as such term is defined in the documentation for the applicable Qualified Loan), (ii) reduce the Loan Interest Rate applicable to such Qualified Loan, (iii) forgive any principal of a Qualified Loan, (iv) postpone any date for the payment of principal or interest on account of such Qualified Loan, (v) extend the maturity date of such Qualified Loan, (vi) change the amortization method or amortization term of such Qualified Loan, (vii) waive any Prepayment Premium or Premium Make-Whole Amount, or (viii) implement a workout plan, commence a foreclosure proceeding, accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure, conduct a pre-foreclosure sale, seek a deficiency judgment or exercise any other remedy available under the documentation for the applicable Qualified Loan. To the extent the terms of any Qualified Loan is modified or amended, the Master Servicer shall notify ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac with respect to such Qualified Loan and, to the extent information called for in a Loan Setup File has changed, provide ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac a modified Loan Setup File no later than the fifth Business Day following the effective date of such modification or amendment. In addition to the foregoing, if one or more Qualified Loans in the Master Servicer’s own portfolio present the same issue or issues as the Qualified Loan which is the subject of a 10 Business Day Notice but the Master Servicer does not propose to handle such issues under such Master Servicer’s Loans in a manner similar to the proposal submitted to the Purchaser, the Master Servicer will so state in the 10 Business Day Notice and include a description of how such issues will be handled in such Master Servicer’s Loans. If by the end of the applicable 10 Business Day Notice period, the Master Servicer has not received written notice from the Purchaser disapproving of the proposal set forth in the applicable 10 Business Day Notice, the Master Servicer may proceed to implement such proposal. If the Purchaser notifies the Master Servicer within the applicable 10 Business Day Notice period that it disapproves of any such proposal with respect to a Qualified Loan, the Master Servicer and the Purchaser will consult with one another as to the best way to proceed and the Purchaser’s decision with respect to such Qualified Loan will be binding on the Master Servicer; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall have the right

to handle such issues under the Qualified Loans in its own portfolio in such manner as the Master Servicer deems appropriate or desirable. In addition to the foregoing, and regardless of whether any action is proposed to be taken by the Master Servicer with respect to a Qualified Loan, the Master Servicer shall notify the Purchaser promptly after becoming aware of: (A) each event of default (as such term is defined in the documentation for the applicable Qualified Loan) that has occurred and is continuing under the documentation for any Qualified Loan, (B) any receipt of a notice of a Borrower’s or Mortgaged Property’s violation or potential violation of applicable zoning laws or environmental laws pertaining to environmental hazards, (C) any proposed material change in the control or ownership of a Borrower, and (D) any material pending lawsuit involving a Borrower or Mortgaged Property which in the opinion of the Master Servicer would materially and adversely affect such Borrower’s ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to a Mortgage Note for a Qualified Loan made to an Indenture Borrower, the noteholder’s ability to waive, modify, amend or vary any term of the related indenture, and its ability to exercise remedies thereunder, is governed and may be limited by the terms contained in such indenture as applicable to all noteholders. However, no provision of any indenture or any other document related to a Qualified Loan to an Indenture Borrower shall prevent, restrict or otherwise encumber the Master Servicer’s ability to fulfill its obligations with respect to the 10 Business Day Notice requirement set forth above, or the Master Servicer’s obligation to notify the Purchaser of the events specified in this Section 5.01(d), except to the extent that noteholders under an indenture have the ability to waive an event of default under such indenture (but not an event of default under the Loan Agreement or Mortgage Note associated with such Qualified Loan) in accordance with the terms thereof.

(e) Powers of Attorney. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and the Purchaser, all agreements and instruments as may be necessary or desirable in connection with the performance of its rights and obligations pursuant to this Section 5.01. If reasonably required by the Master Servicer, the Purchaser shall furnish the Master Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Master Agreement, the Mortgages and the other documentation pertaining to the Qualified Loans.

(f) Delegation. In the ordinary course of business, the Master Servicer at any time may delegate any of its duties hereunder to any Person, including any of its Affiliates, who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with this Master Agreement including those standards set forth in this Section 5.01. Any such delegation may include entering into subservicing agreements with any Person or Persons, for the servicing and administration of the Qualified Loans or a portion thereof. Such delegation shall not relieve the Master Servicer of its liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such duties and shall not constitute a resignation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, or in any agreement relating to any such delegation, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Purchaser for the servicing and administration of the Qualified Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Master Agreement to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Qualified Loans. The Master Servicer shall provide the Purchaser with written notice of delegation of any of its duties to any Person other than any of

the Master Servicer’s Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns on the later of the respective Sale Date or sixty (60) days prior to such delegation.

(g) Reporting. The Master Servicer will provide the following reports to the Purchaser, which reports may be transmitted via e-mail to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ or in such other form as may be agreed between the Purchaser and the Master Servicer:

(iii)If there are any Principal Prepayments with respect to any Qualified Loan or Qualified Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan during the immediately preceding Collection Period, then the Master Servicer will provide to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac and its designee a Defaulted And Qualified Loan Exception Report (a form of which is attached to this Master Agreement as Exhibit 3) on or before the fifteenth day of each calendar month (or if such fifteenth day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day).

(h) Additional Reporting. The Master Servicer shall provide Purchaser with the following items, which items may be included on a consolidated report of other loans serviced by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Purchaser in such other capacity:

(i) Within fifteen (15) days of the end of each calendar quarter ending March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st, a report in a format reasonably acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac that identifies each Qualified Loan purchased by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, which report shall include the outstanding principal balance of such Qualified Loan, the related facility rating assigned by the Master Servicer and the related Borrower Rating assigned by the Master Servicer, in each case as of the end of such quarter;

(ii) As soon as practicable, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days following each September 30th, a report in a format reasonably acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac that identifies each Qualified Loan to a Class A Member purchased by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, which report shall include the appropriate financial data from unaudited financial statements, which may be on a RFOR Distribution for the prior calendar year ending December 31st, as reasonably requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, consistent with past practice and industry standards at the time of such request;

(iii) As soon as practicable, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days following each November 30th, a report in a format reasonably acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac that identifies each Qualified Loan to a Class B Member purchased by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, which report shall include the appropriate financial data from unaudited financial statements, which may be on a RFOR Power Supply for the prior calendar year ending December 31st, as reasonably requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, consistent with past practice and industry standards at the time of such request; and

(iv) Written notice to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac within 30 days after the occurrence of any of the following material changes to the Master Servicer’s Risk Rating Methodology: (1) any material change to the weighting of the risk rating criteria; and (2) any material change in the criteria in the risk rating.

(i) Additional Reporting for Covered Loans. In addition to the requirements set forth in this Section 5.01, for each Covered Loan, the Master Servicer shall:

(i) Provide prompt notice to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac of any material developments, to Master Servicer’s knowledge, regarding any event or occurrence which would reasonably be expected to give rise to a default or event of default (or that would, given time, give rise to a default or event of default) under the Loan Agreement, Mortgage or Mortgage Note, including but not limited to any failure to achieve an applicable rate covenant;

(ii) Provide prompt notice to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac of any Asset Sale for which Borrower is required to provide notice or obtain lender’s consent under the terms of such Borrower’s Loan Agreement or Mortgage; and

(iii) Provide ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac with such other information in Master Servicer’s possession or reports from time to time as ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac may reasonably request.

Section 5.02. Collection of Qualified Loan Payments; Establishment of Collection Account.

(a) Payment; Collection. Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on all Qualified Loans is paid in full, the Master Servicer will proceed diligently, in accordance with this Master Agreement, to (i) collect all payments due under each of the Qualified Loans it services when the same shall become due and payable, (ii) apply payments to Qualified Loans in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Notes, and (iii) determine and accept the amount required to pay a Qualified Loan in full, including interest to the next scheduled Due Date.

(b) Collection Account. The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Collection Account, which shall be an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited into the Collection Account all Qualified Loan Receipts plus any Amount Held for Future Distribution plus all amounts permitted to be retained or withdrawn by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 5.04 within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.02(c), all funds required to be deposited in the Collection Account shall be held for the benefit of the Purchaser until withdrawn in accordance with Section 5.04 or remitted to the Purchaser. The Master Servicer shall give notice to the

Purchaser of the initial location of the Collection Account and of any proposed change of the location of the Collection Account maintained by the Master Servicer not later than two (2) Business Days and not more than forty-five (45) days prior to any change thereof.

Section 5.03. Realization Upon Defaulted Loans.

(a) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to realize upon Defaulted Loans in such manner as in the Master Servicer’s judgment will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the Purchaser. The Master Servicer is obligated to make every effort it deems reasonable to work out a troubled Qualified Loan before proposing foreclosure, a deed in lieu of foreclosure, a pre-foreclosure sale or other remedial action. The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such of the Qualified Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Master Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such Mortgaged Property. The Master Servicer shall promptly notify ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac when a Mortgaged Property suffers material damage to allow ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac the opportunity to expend funds toward restoration only to the extent that: (1) the Master Servicer has notice of such damage; and (2) in the opinion of the Master Servicer there are insufficient funds or no reasonable likelihood that there will be sufficient funds received in the future from insurance proceeds, any federal or state governmental agency or any other sources.

(b) The decision of the Master Servicer to foreclose on a Defaulted Loan shall be subject to the written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac.

(c) Any proceeds to which the Purchaser is entitled as a mortgagee under a Mortgage securing any Qualified Loan will be paid, subject to the following order of priority: first, to the

Master Servicer to reimburse the Master Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees with respect to the related Qualified Loan; and second, to the Purchaser as a recovery of principal of such Qualified Loan.

(d) In the event that, as a result of or in connection with the exercise of remedies with respect to a Qualified Loan, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac becomes the owner of real estate or other property, the Master Servicer will immediately commence appropriate procedures to liquidate such real estate or other property if so requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac.

Section 5.04. Permitted Withdrawals From the Collection Account. The Master Servicer shall maintain adequate records with respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section 5.04. The Master Servicer may from time to time, and with respect to clause (i) below shall, withdraw funds from the Collection Account or the Investment Account for the following purposes:

(i) to pay to the Master Servicer (to the extent not previously retained) the servicing compensation to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 5.08;

(ii) to reimburse the Master Servicer for unreimbursed Servicing Advances made by it in connection with the Qualified Loans, only from amounts received with respect to the Qualified Loans in respect of which any such Servicing Advance was made;

(iii) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Collection Account or the Investment Account and not required to be deposited therein;

(iv) to reimburse the Master Servicer for costs and expenses incurred by it and reimbursable pursuant hereto; and

(v) to remit all remaining amounts to the Purchaser on each Distribution Date.

Section 5.05. Distribution Account. On or before the first Sale Date, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac shall establish the Distribution Account and provide the Master Servicer with wire instructions and all other information required for the Master Servicer to wire funds into such account. On each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall wire to the Distribution Account in same day funds an amount equal to the Qualified Loan Receipts for the preceding Collection Period. The wire transfer of funds will normally be scheduled for transmission by 12:00 p.m. eastern time, but in no event later than 5:00 p.m. eastern time.

Section 5.06. Fidelity Bond, Insurance. The Master Servicer shall maintain insurance coverage and financial institution bond protection consistent with that maintained by the Master Servicer as of the date of this Master Agreement. Such insurance coverage shall include coverage in the amount of $4,000,000 insuring the Master Servicer against losses on account of employee dishonesty, loss inside the premises coverage, loss outside the premises coverage, money orders and counterfeit paper currency coverage and depositors forgery coverage. Such financial institution bond protection shall include $6,000,000 single loss limit of liability coverage on account of forgery or alteration, securities, computer systems fraud, telefacsimile transfer fraud and voice initiated transfer fraud.

Section 5.07. Satisfaction of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Files.

(a) Upon the payment in full of any Qualified Loan, or the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall immediately notify the Purchaser and the Custodian. Such notice shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the related Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.02 have been or will be so deposited, and shall request delivery to the Master Servicer of the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such notice and request, the Purchaser shall, within five (5) Business Days, deliver, or cause the Custodian to deliver, to the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File and the Master Servicer shall prepare and process any satisfaction or release that may be necessary. In the event that the Purchase fails to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File within five (5) Business Days of the Master Servicer’s request therefor, the Purchaser shall be liable to the Master Servicer for any additional expenses or costs, including, but not limited to, outsourcing fees and penalties, incurred by the Master Servicer resulting from such failure.

(b) From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of a Qualified Loan, the Purchaser shall, within five (5) Business Days of the Master Servicer’s request and delivery to the Purchaser of a servicing receipt signed by a Servicing Officer, deliver or cause the Custodian to deliver to the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File. Pursuant to the servicing receipt, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to return to the Custodian the related Mortgage File when the Master Servicer no longer needs such file, unless the Qualified Loan has been liquidated and the Cash Liquidation Proceeds relating to such Qualified Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File or a portion thereof has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially. In the event that the Purchaser fails to deliver or cause the Custodian to deliver to the Master Servicer the applicable Mortgage File within five (5) Business Days of the Master Servicer’s request therefor, the Purchaser shall be liable to the Master Servicer for any additional expenses or costs, including, but not limited to, outsourcing fees and penalties, incurred by the Master Servicer resulting from such failure. Upon receipt of notice from the Master Servicer stating that such Qualified Loan was liquidated, the Purchaser shall release the Master Servicer from its obligations under the related servicing receipt.

Section 5.08. Servicing Compensation and Reimbursement.

(a) With respect to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw from the Collection Account an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee with respect to each Qualified Loan only out of the interest portion of amounts collected by the Master Servicer with respect to such Qualified Loan.

(b) Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, and all other customary and ancillary income and fees shall be retained by the Master Servicer to the extent not required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.02. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except that the Master

Servicer is entitled to reimbursement for all Servicing Advances and as otherwise provided in this Master Agreement, including but not limited to Section 5.14(a).

The Master Servicer shall account fully to the Purchaser for any funds received by the Master Servicer or which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer, including any Cash Liquidation Proceeds, in respect of any Qualified Loan. All Servicing Files and Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer in respect of any Qualified Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Cash Liquidation Proceeds, including but not limited to any funds on deposit in the Collection Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Purchaser and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Purchaser, subject to the applicable provisions of this Master Agreement. The Master Servicer also agrees that it shall not knowingly create, incur or subject any Servicing File, Mortgage File or any funds that are deposited in the Collection Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the Purchaser, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other encumbrance created by the Master Servicer, or assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any Servicing File, Mortgage File or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a Qualified Loan, except, however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer under this Master Agreement.

Section 5.12. Resignation and Termination of Master Servicer.

(a) The Master Servicer may at any time resign and terminate its obligations under this Master Agreement upon at least one hundred eighty (180) days’ prior written notice to the Purchaser; provided, however, that no such resignation or termination shall be effective until a successor Master Servicer is appointed (and accepts such appointment) pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.12. Promptly after receipt of notice of the Master Servicer’s intended resignation, the Purchaser shall appoint, by written instrument, a successor master servicer. If the Purchaser fails to appoint a successor master servicer pursuant to the terms hereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Master Servicer’s notice of resignation, Master Servicer may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor master servicer. One original counterpart of any aforementioned instrument of appointment shall be delivered to each of the Purchaser and the successor master servicer.

(c) On and after the receipt by the Master Servicer of written notice of termination, if applicable, and the acceptance by the successor or successors to the Master Servicer, all

obligations and duties imposed upon the Master Servicer under this Master Agreement shall pass to and vest in the successor or successors named in the notice, and such successor or successors shall be authorized, and hereby are authorized, to take all such action and execute and deliver all such instruments and documents on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney in fact or otherwise, as may be necessary and appropriate to effect the purposes of such written notice. The Master Servicer shall pay the reasonable costs and expenses relating to a transition to a successor Master Servicer.

(d) This Section 5.12 shall survive any termination of this Master Agreement and any termination of this Master Agreement shall not prejudice the rights of the Master Servicer to recover any amounts due to the Master Servicer under this Master Agreement.

Section 5.13. Inspection Rights. The Master Servicer shall, upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written request from the Purchaser, during normal business hours, permit the Purchaser to examine the Servicing Files which relate to Qualified Loans. These inspection rights shall extend to representatives of the Farm Credit Administration (as the Governmental Authority that regulates ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac).

Section 5.14. Limitation on Liability of the Master Servicer and Others.

(a) Neither the Master Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Purchaser for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith and without gross negligence pursuant to this Master Agreement or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Master Servicer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder. The Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master Servicer shall be indemnified by the Purchaser and held harmless by the Purchaser against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Master Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Master Servicer’s duties in connection therewith, other than any unrecovered Servicing Fee or Servicing Advance related to any specific Qualified Loan or Qualified Loans and any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder.

(b) The Master Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its respective duties under this Master Agreement and for which it will not be reimbursed or indemnified hereunder; provided, however, that the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Master Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Purchaser hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Master Servicer entitled to be reimbursed therefore out of amounts attributable to the Qualified Loans on

deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 5.04 and otherwise pursuant to Section 5.14(a).

(c) The Master Servicer and its directors, officers, employees and agents shall be deemed to have exercised the degree of skill and care appropriate hereunder if such Person has acted in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures and in good faith in (i) managing, administering, servicing, making collections, foreclosing, counseling with respect to, and supervising the Qualified Loans; (ii) administering, interpreting, and enforcing the Mortgages, Mortgage Notes and all forms, documents and certificates required thereunder; (iii) fulfilling all obligations hereunder; and (iv) all duties, obligations and actions taken in respect of the Mortgaged Property.

Section 5.15. Statements and Certificates to Purchaser.

(a) Within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the close of each fiscal year of Master Servicer, beginning with the fiscal year ending May 31, 2010, the Master Servicer shall deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac an Annual Officer’s Certificate. If the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all the Qualified Loans purchased by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac under this Master Agreement exceeds $500 million in the future, the Master Servicer shall also provide such assertion letters and attestation reports as ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac may require to reasonably comply with applicable laws and regulations, the form of which letters and reports shall be agreed upon between ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac and the Master Servicer.

(b) Within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the close of each fiscal year of the Master Servicer, beginning with the fiscal year ending in 2009, the Master Servicer shall deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac a copy of the report of independent accountants respecting the Master Servicer’s, or the Master Servicer’s parent corporation’s, consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year.

(c) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, each person or entity, if any, who “controls” ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and their respective officers and directors (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) against any and all losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, fees and expenses that any Indemnitee may sustain arising out of third party claims (including any criminal or civil action brought by a government agency or department) based on the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver or cause to be delivered when required the reports required under this Section 5.15 or any material misstatement or material omission therein. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnitee, then the Master Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnitee as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Indemnitee in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitee on the one hand and the Master Servicer on the other.

(d) In approving CFC as the Master Servicer, a major consideration is the information the CFC has provided about CFC’s servicing qualifications and financial status. Consequently, CFC shall notify ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac promptly of: (1) any event resulting in the filing by CFC of a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC; (2) a material adverse change in the financial

condition of CFC or any Affiliate that could materially and adversely affect ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac’s interests in the Qualified Loans; or (3) a loss of any license, qualification to transact business or exemption therefrom in any state where such loss would materially and adversely impact CFC’s authority or ability to perform its obligations under this Master Agreement.

Section 5.16. Securities Offerings.

▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac shall provide at least sixty (60) days written notice to the Master Servicer prior to the filing of a registration statement with respect to any Securities Offering. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac shall pay the following fees and costs to the extent incurred in connection with the offering of securities pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended: (i) the fees and costs associated with the filing of a registration statement or other offering document with any Governmental Authority, (ii) the fees and expenses of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac’s counsel, (iii) any fees and expenses associated with having the securities rated, (iv) underwriting commissions and discounts of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac’s underwriters for the sale of the securities, (v) the reasonable fees and expenses of CFC’s counsel, (vi) the reasonable fees and expenses of CFC’s auditors, and (vii) printing costs of the prospectus or other offering documents.

The Master Servicer shall, at its own expense, on or before seventy-five (75) days after the end of each calendar year, commencing with the calendar year, if any, during which Purchaser has consummated a Securities Offering, and each calendar year thereafter during which such Securities Offering is subject to a reporting obligation under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, cause a firm of independent public accountants (who may also render other services to the Master Servicer or any affiliate thereof) which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Purchaser to the effect that such firm has, with respect to the Master Servicer’s servicing operations under this Master Agreement with respect to such Securities Offering, examined such operations in accordance with the requirements of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, stating such firm’s conclusions relating thereto. The Master Servicer shall also provide (i) a servicer compliance statement as contemplated by Item 1123 of Regulation AB, and (ii) such information as may be necessary or appropriate in order to fulfill the requirements set forth in Item 1108 of Regulation AB.
