indirect interest in its manager or managing member) is sold, assigned, transferred,
conveyed or otherwise disposed of or is the subject of any attempted sale, assignment,
transfer or conveyance without written consent of Pledgee and, in the case of more than a
49% indirect interest in Successor Borrower, without rating agency approval; provided,
however, that in the case of a transfer of more than a 49% indirect interest in
Successor Borrower, if interests in such transferor are traded on a nationally recognized
public exchange, Pledgee or rating agency approval of such transfer shall not be required in
connection with an acquisition by or merger with a transferee that also is traded on a
nationally recognized public exchange; or
(vi) Any party to the Defeasance Documents other than Pledgee shall default in the
performance of any of the other obligations to Pledgee under the Defeasance Documents and
such default shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after notice thereof
and, if this shall be a result of conduct of a party other than Successor Borrower, such
default results, or is likely, in Pledgee’s reasonable determination to result, in a default
under Section 9(a)(i); or
(vii) Successor Borrower shall admit in writing its inability to, or be generally
unable to, pay its debts as such debts become due; or
(viii) Successor Borrower shall make a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors; or
(ix) Successor Borrower shall be terminated, dissolved or liquidated (as a matter of
law or otherwise); or
(x) Successor Borrower shall at any time cease to be a Single Purpose Entity; or
(xi) A proceeding or case shall be commenced, with or without the application or
consent of Pledgor or Successor Borrower as debtor, seeking (i) such debtor’s liquidation,
reorganization, dissolution or winding-up, or the composition or readjustment of its debts,
(ii) the appointment of a trustee, receiver, custodian, liquidator or the like of such
debtor for all or any part of its assets, (iii) relief in respect of such debtor under the
United States Bankruptcy Code or (iv) similar relief in respect of such debtor under any law
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding-up, or composition or adjustment
of debts, and in any such proceeding in which Pledgor is the debtor any claim shall
be asserted that all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral is an asset of the debtor’s
estate, or any aspect of the transaction effected pursuant to the Defeasance Documents, or
any exercise by Pledgee of its rights or remedies thereunder, is challenged, voided,
rescinded or set aside, or is subject to any stay or injunction; or
(xii) Successor Borrower shall take any action that (a) causes any REMIC formed
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to lose its status as a REMIC or (b)
subjects any such REMIC to any tax under Chapter I, Subchapter M of the IRC.
(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case,
Pledgee may, at its sole option, take any one or more or all of the following actions:
(i) instruct the Obligor or Obligors on the Securities or any agreement, instrument or
other obligation constituting Pledged Collateral to make any payment required by the terms
of such instrument, agreement or obligation directly to or as directed by Pledgee;
(ii) cause all book entries in the records of Intermediary with respect to the
Securities to be changed or modified to show Pledgee or a designee of Pledgee as the record
owner of the Securities;
(iii) exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code with
respect to the Pledged Collateral;
(iv) seek specific performance of, or enjoin actions in violation of, any party’s
obligations to Pledgee under the Defeasance Documents; and
(v) exercise all other available rights, privileges and remedies, at law or in equity,
with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and may exercise such rights and remedies either in
the name of Pledgee or in the name of Pledgor for the use and benefit of Pledgee to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
(c) The proceeds of the exercise by Pledgee of any remedy hereunder shall be paid to Pledgee
and applied, in such order of priority and amounts as Pledgee in its discretion shall deem proper,
to the payment of all costs and expenses of any suit and of all proper compensation, expenses,
liabilities and advances, including expenses and attorneys’ fees, owed to, incurred by or made by
Pledgee and all taxes, assessments or liens superior to the lien hereof; to the payment of all
amounts due and owing in respect of the Secured Obligations; to the payment of the
expenses of the Pledgee or Servicer or any other party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
with respect to its obligations thereunder; and the balance, if any, to Pledgor or to another
Person lawfully entitled thereto as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(d) The parties acknowledge and agree that the Securities are sold on a recognized market and,
accordingly, Pledgee need not furnish Pledgor with notice of its intention to sell the Securities.
If, however, applicable law requires such notice, then upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgee may, upon ten (10) business days’ prior written notice
to Pledgor of the time and place, (except as provided to the contrary in the final sentence of this
paragraph), sell, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral or any
part thereof that shall then be in, or shall thereafter come into, the possession, custody or
control of Pledgee or any of its agents, at such place or places as Pledgee deems appropriate, and
for cash or for credit or for future delivery, at public or private sale, without demand of
performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof
(except such notice as is required above or required by applicable statute, which cannot be
waived), and Pledgee or anyone else may be the purchaser, assignee or recipient of any or all of
the Pledged Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at
any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of any
kind, including any right of equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise) of Pledgor, and Pledgor
hereby expressly waives and releases any such demand of performance, notice (other than the notice
set forth above and any non-waiveable statutory notice) and right of equity of redemption. Pledgee
may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be
adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale
may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned.
The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 9(d)
shall be applied in accordance with Section 9(c) hereof.
(e) Private Sale. Pledgee shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the
Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 9(d)
hereof conducted in a commercially reasonable manner and in accordance with the Code. Pledgor
hereby waives any claims against Pledgee arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the
Pledged Collateral may have been sold at any such private sale was less than the price that might
have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured
Obligations, even if Pledgee accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Pledged
Collateral to more than one offeree.
Section 10. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.
(a) No failure on the part of Pledgee to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and
no delay on the part of Pledgee in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate
as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy hereunder
shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
remedy. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided
by law.
(b) In the event Pledgee shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or
remedy under this Agreement, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any
reason or shall have been determined adversely to Pledgee, then and in every such case, Pledgor,
Pledgee and each other party to any of the Defeasance Documents shall be restored to their
respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all
rights, remedies and powers of Pledgee shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.
Section 11. Pledgee May Perform; Pledgee Appointed Attorney-in Fact.
If Pledgor fails to do any act or thing that it has covenanted to do hereunder or if any
warranty on the part of Pledgor contained herein shall be breached and such breach continues beyond
any applicable grace period, Pledgee or Servicer may (but shall not be obligated to), upon prior
written notice to Pledgor specifying the action to be taken, do the same or cause it to be done or
remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose. Any and all amounts so expended by
Pledgee or Servicer (including, but not limited to, reasonable legal expenses and disbursements)
shall be paid by Pledgor promptly upon demand therefor, with interest at the default rate specified
in the Note, during the period from the date on which such payment is made to and including the
date of repayment. Pledgor hereby authorizes Pledgee and Servicer and appoints Pledgee and
Servicer as its attorneys-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in the
name of Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in Pledgee’s or Servicer’s reasonable discretion
to take any action and to execute any instrument which is consistent and in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement and the other Defeasance Documents and which Pledgee or Servicer may deem
reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the other
Defeasance Documents. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an
interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term of this Agreement. Pledgor hereby
ratifies all actions that such attorney shall lawfully take or cause to be taken in accordance with
this Section 11.
Section 12. Modification in Writing.
This Agreement, and any provisions hereof, may not be modified, amended, waived, extended,
changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Pledgor or
Pledgee, but only by an agreement in writing and signed by Pledgor, Pledgee, and, with respect to
modification to Sections 7, 8, 9, 16, 22 and 25, the Intermediary. Any amendment, modification or
supplement of or to any provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement,
and any consent to any departure by Pledgor from the terms of any provision of this Agreement shall
be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given.
Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or the other Defeasance Documents,
no notice to or demand on Pledgor in any case shall entitle Pledgor to any other or further notice
or demand in similar or other circumstances.
Section 13. Termination; Release.
When all of the Secured Obligations have been satisfied, performed in full, and released, this
Agreement shall terminate. Upon termination of this Agreement or any release of Pledged
Collateral in accordance with the provisions of the Defeasance Documents, Pledgee shall upon
the request and at the sole cost and expense of Pledgor forthwith assign, transfer and deliver, and
shall direct Intermediary, to assign, transfer and deliver, to Pledgor, or if applicable, Successor
Borrower, against receipt and without express or implied recourse to or warranty by Pledgee (i)
such of the Pledged Collateral to be released as may be in possession of Pledgee or Intermediary
and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and (ii) proper
instruments (including Code termination statements) acknowledging the termination of this Agreement
or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be.
Section 14. Notices.
All notices or other communications hereunder by any party to the other party shall be in
writing and shall be delivered by first class certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested or by nationally-recognized commercial overnight courier. Such notices or communications
shall be deemed to be received by the addressee on the third (3rd) day following the day
such notice is deposited with the United States postal service first class certified mail, postage
prepaid, return receipt requested, or on the first (1st) day after deposit with such
overnight courier, in either case addressed to the address set forth below for the party to whom

any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in

to any Pledged Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent
or bailee or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any

Defeasance Documents (including, without limitation, any such proceeding by Pledgor against
