(e) On the applicable Repurchase Date for any Transaction, termination of such Transaction will be effected by transfer to the applicable Series Seller or its agent of the applicable Purchased Loan(s) and any Income in respect thereof received by Buyer (and not previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations of, Master Seller, such Series Seller or any other Series Seller pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement), against the simultaneous transfer of the Repurchase Price for such Transaction to an account of Buyer.

(f) If prior to the first day of any Pricing Rate Period with respect to the Transaction, (i) Buyer shall have determined in its sole and absolute discretion exercised in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Pricing Rate Period, or (ii) the LIBO Rate determined or to be determined for such Pricing Rate Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Buyer (as determined and certified by Buyer in its sole discretion exercised in good faith) of making or maintaining Transactions during such Pricing Rate Period, Buyer shall give telecopy, e-mail or telephonic notice thereof to Seller as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, the Pricing Rate with respect to such Transaction for such Pricing Rate Period, and for any subsequent Pricing Rate Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus the Applicable Spread (the “Alternative Rate”).

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for Buyer to effect or continue Transactions as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, (a) the commitment of Buyer hereunder to enter into new Transactions and to continue Transactions as such shall forthwith be canceled, and (b) the Transactions then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Alternative Rate Transactions on the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period or within such earlier period as may be required by law. If any such conversion of a Transaction occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period with respect to such Transaction, Seller shall pay to Buyer such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3(i) of this Agreement

(h) Upon demand by Buyer, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any net actual, out of pocket loss or expense (not to include any lost profit or opportunity) (including, without limitation, reasonable actual attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which Buyer may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by Seller in terminating any Transaction after Seller has given a notice in accordance with Section 3(d) of a termination of a Transaction, (ii) any payment of the Repurchase Price for any Purchased Loan on any day other than a Remittance Date or the Repurchase Date for such Purchased Loan (including, without limitation, any actual breakage costs and similar out of pocket costs) or (iii) conversion of the Transaction to an Alternative Rate Transaction pursuant to Section 3(f) of this Agreement on a day which is not the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period. A certificate as to such actual costs, losses, damages and expenses, setting forth the calculations therefor shall be submitted promptly by Buyer to Seller and shall be prima facie evidence of the information set forth therein.

(i) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i)

shall subject Buyer to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Transaction Documents, any Purchased Loan or any Transaction, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof (in each case except for (A) Excluded Taxes and (B) Taxes for which Buyer is entitled to Additional Amounts under Section 29);

(ii)

shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBO Rate hereunder; or

(iii)

shall impose on Buyer any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount which Buyer deems, in its sole and absolute discretion exercised in good faith, to be material, of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions or to reduce any amount receivable under the Transaction Documents in respect thereof; then, in any such case, Seller shall promptly pay Buyer, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable (in the case of Taxes, in an amount such that, after deduction of the applicable Tax, Buyer receives the amount to which it would have been entitled if no Tax were deductible). If Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3(i), it shall, within ten (10) Business Days after Buyer has actual knowledge of such event, notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. Such notification as to the calculation of any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Loans.

(j) If Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof does or shall have the effect of increasing the amount of capital to be held by Buyer in respect of any Transaction hereunder or reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, to be material, then from time to time, after submission by Buyer to Seller of a written request therefor, Seller shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Buyer for such reduction. Such notification as to the calculation of any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Loan.

(l) Upon the occurrence of a Mandatory Early Repurchase Event with respect to any Purchased Loan, Buyer may, upon written notice to the applicable Series Seller, accelerate the Repurchase Date of such Purchased Loan to the date (the “Mandatory Early Repurchase Date”) which is (i) two (2) Business Days following such notice provided that such notice is received prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) or (ii) three (3) Business Days following such notice if such notice is received after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), and require that the applicable Series Seller repurchase such Purchased Loan from Buyer on such Mandatory Early Repurchase Date (a “Mandatory Early Repurchase”), which repurchase by the applicable Series Seller shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3(d).

(m) If Buyer shall exercise its rights under Sections 3(f), 3(g), 3(i) or 3(j), then Seller shall have the right, at any time thereafter (unless Buyer has at such time waived any claims pursuant to such Sections or such Sections no longer apply) to terminate this Agreement or all Transactions hereunder and, in connection with any such termination, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, there shall be no exit fee or prepayment fee or premium due. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Buyer shall not exercise its rights to change the Pricing Rate for the Transactions to the Alternative Rate under Section 3(f) or to require Seller to pay additional amounts under Sections 3(g) through 3(i) if Buyer has not required similarly-situated borrowers and “sellers” under Buyer’s other commercial real estate loan repurchase facilities to pay interest based on such an alternative rate or to pay such amounts.

4. MANDATORY AMORTIZATION

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Credit Event with respect to any Purchased Loan, Buyer shall determine the Maximum Repurchase Price of such Purchased Loan on each Business Day during the existence of a Credit Event, and shall determine the amount, if any, by which the Repurchase Price (excluding Price Differential) for such Purchased Loan exceeds such Maximum Repurchase Price (a “Mandatory Amortization Amount”).

(b) If at any time a Mandatory Amortization Amount exists with respect to a Purchased Loan, then Buyer may, by notice (a “Mandatory Amortization Notice”) to the applicable Series Seller, require the applicable Series Seller to transfer to Buyer cash in the amount of the Mandatory Amortization Amount for such Purchased Loan by no later than the Mandatory Amortization Deadline on the date that is two (2) Business Days following the date of receipt of such Mandatory Amortization Notice (provided that if a Mandatory Amortization Notice is received later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), then the Mandatory Amortization Amount shall be due no later than the Mandatory Amortization Deadline on the date that is three (3) Business Days following the date of receipt of such Mandatory Amortization Notice). The applicable Series Seller’s failure to pay any Mandatory Amortization Amount as required by this paragraph shall constitute a Transaction Event of Default with respect to the applicable Transaction under the Transaction Documents and shall entitle Buyer to exercise its remedies under Section 13(c) of this Agreement.

(c) The failure of, or delay by, Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights under Section 4(b) of this Agreement shall not (i) change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject, (ii) limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date, (iii) limit Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law, or (iv) in any way create additional rights for Buyer.

(d) If Master Seller and/or any applicable Series Sellers transfer cash to Buyer on account of Mandatory Amortization Amounts relating to more than one Purchased Loan, but such cash is insufficient to fully satisfy such Mandatory Amortization Amounts, Buyer shall have the right to designate the Purchased Loan(s) and Mandatory Amortization Amount(s) to which such payments shall be applied, in its sole and absolute discretion.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 16 to the contrary, notice of a Mandatory Amortization Amount may be delivered by Buyer via email, without the need to also deliver such notice by one of the other means set forth in Section 16, and shall be deemed received upon the sending of such email; provided, that any such email notice to Master Seller shall be required to (i) be sent to the parties designated by Master Seller as “Mandatory Amortization Notice Parties” on Annex I attached hereto or such other parties as may be substituted for such parties listed on Annex I by Master Seller from time to time by written notice to Buyer delivered in accordance with Section 16 (provided that in no event shall Master Seller designate more than five (5) parties as “Mandatory Amortization Notice Parties” at any time), (ii) be marked “high priority”, and (iii) include in the subject line thereof the following caption: “MANDATORY AMORTIZATION NOTICE”; provided, further, that the transmitting party did not receive an electronic notice of a delivery failure to two (2) or more of such parties.

(f) Buyer and Master Seller acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 4(a) and 4(b) hereof, if at any time that a Mandatory Amortization Amount exists with respect to one or more Purchased Loans (each such Purchased Loan, a “Mandatory Amortization Loan”; and the sum of the Mandatory Amortization Amounts for each Mandatory Amortization Loan, at any time, collectively, the “Aggregate Mandatory Amortization Amount”), the Maximum Repurchase Price for any other Purchased Loan that is not a Mandatory Amortization Loan (each such Purchased Loan, a “Non-Amortization Loan”) exceeds the Repurchase Price (excluding Price Differential) for such Non-Amortization Loan (such excess, an “Excess Repurchase Amount”; and the sum of the Excess Repurchase Amounts for each Non-Amortization Loan, at any time, collectively, the “Aggregate Excess Repurchase Amount”), such Aggregate Excess Repurchase Amount (if any) for all Transactions shall be credited against the Aggregate Mandatory Amortization Amount owed under Section 4(b) and only the net amount need be paid.

5. INCOME PAYMENTS AND PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS

(a) On each Remittance Date, each Series Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer (to the extent not paid on such date through the distributions required pursuant to Sections 5(c) and (d) and hereof) the accrued but unpaid Price Differential for its applicable Transaction(s) due as of such Remittance Date (along with any other amounts then due and payable), by wire transfer in immediately available funds. A Cash Management Account shall be established by Master Seller, on behalf of itself and each Series Seller, at the Depository. Buyer shall have sole dominion and control over the Cash Management Account. All Available Income in respect of the Purchased Loans shall be deposited by Master Seller and each Series Seller or the applicable Servicer directly into the Cash Management Account without any further action of Buyer. All such amounts transferred into the Cash Management Account shall be remitted by the Depository in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 5(b), 5(c), 5(d), 13(b)(iii) and 13(c)(iii) of this Agreement.

(b) Seller shall cause the Servicer of each Purchased Loan to enter into a Servicer Notice and Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit IX to this Agreement, which provides, inter alia, that the Servicer shall deposit all Available Income with respect to such Purchased Loan into the Cash Management Account. If a Servicer forwards any Available Income with respect to a Purchased Loan to Master Seller or any Series Seller rather than directly to the Cash Management Account, Master Seller shall (i) redeliver an executed copy of the Servicer Notice and Agreement to the applicable Servicer, and make other commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Servicer to forward such amounts directly to the Cash Management Account, (ii) hold such amounts in trust for the benefit of Buyer and (ii) immediately deposit in the Cash Management Account any such amounts.

(c) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Available Income received by the Depository in respect of the Purchased Loans during each Collection Period shall be applied by the Depository on the related Remittance Date (or, solely with respect to Available Income representing unscheduled Principal Payments and/or net sale proceeds, on the Business Day following the day on which such funds are deposited in the Cash Management Account) in the following order of priority:

(i)

first, to remit to (a) the Custodian an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid custodial fees and expenses due and payable under the Custodial Agreement, and (b) the Depository an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid fees and expenses due and payable under the Controlled Account Agreement;

second, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the aggregate Price Differential which has accrued and is outstanding in respect of all of the Purchased Loans as of such Remittance Date;

(iv)

fourth, to remit to Buyer on account of any unpaid fees, costs, expenses, indemnity amounts and any and all other amounts due and payable from Seller under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;

(v)

fifth, if a MAC Reduction Event shall have occurred with respect to any Purchased Loan(s) (but no Material Default or Event of Default then exists), to make a payment to Buyer in an amount equal to the applicable MAC Reduction Amount, which MAC Reduction Amount shall be allocated by Buyer to the Repurchase Price(s) of the Purchased Loan(s) with respect to which such MAC Reduction Event has occurred until the Repurchase Price(s) for each such Purchased Loan has been reduced to zero;

(vi)

sixth, if an Amortization Event (other than as a result of a Material Adverse Change Event) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any Purchased Loan, to make a payment to Buyer in an amount equal to the applicable Amortization Event Amount with respect to any Principal Payment received on account of such Purchased Loan, which Amortization Event Amount shall be allocated by Buyer (a) first, to the Repurchase Price of the respective Purchased Loan in respect of which such Principal Payment has been received until the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Loan has been reduced to zero, and (b) second, any remaining portion of such Amortization Event Amount, to the Repurchase Price(s) of one or more of the other Purchased Loans in such amounts as Buyer may determine in its sole and absolute discretion;

(vii)

seventh, if a Material Adverse Change Event shall have occurred and is continuing (so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), any remaining amount shall be paid to Buyer to be applied to the Repurchase Price of each of the Purchased Loans (in such amounts as Buyer may determine in its sole and absolute discretion), until the Repurchase Price for each of such Purchased Loans has been reduced to zero; and

eighth, to remit to Master Seller, on behalf of all applicable Series Sellers, the remainder, if any.

(d) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Available Income (including Principal Payments) received by Buyer or the Depository in respect of the Purchased Loans during each Collection Period shall be applied by Buyer or the Depository on the Business Day following the day on which such funds are deposited in the Cash Management Account as follows:

(i)

first, to remit to (a) the Custodian in an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid custodial fees and expenses due and payable under the Custodial Agreement, and (b) the Depository in an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid fees and expenses due and payable under the Controlled Account Agreement;

(ii)

second, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the aggregate Price Differential which has accrued and is outstanding in respect of all of the Purchased Loans as of such Business Day;

(iii)

third, to remit to Buyer in an amount equal to any unpaid fees, costs, expenses, indemnity amounts and any and all other amounts due and payable from Seller under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;

(iv)

fourth, to make a payment to Buyer in an amount equal to (A) the Repurchase Price of each of the Purchased Loans if a Facility Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (which amount may be allocated by Buyer to one or more of the Purchased Loans in such amounts as Buyer may determine in its sole and absolute discretion), or (B) the Repurchase Price of each of the Purchased Loans with respect to which a Transaction Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (but no Facility Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), in each case until the Repurchase Price for each of such Purchased Loans has been reduced to zero (if a Facility Event of Default shall exist or Transaction Events of Default shall exist with respect to more than one Purchased Loan, Buyer may allocate amounts under this Section 5(d)(iv) to the Repurchase Price(s) of one or more of such Purchased Loans in such amounts as Buyer may determine in its sole and absolute discretion); and

(v)

fifth, to remit to Master Seller the remainder, if any.

(e) Notwithstanding that each Series Seller shall be responsible for its own Available Income, the distribution and allocation of Available Income in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 5 may, for administrative convenience, be accomplished on an aggregate basis for all Series Sellers. In the event that the amounts remitted pursuant to Sections 5(c) and (d) above on any Remittance Date are insufficient to pay the accrued Price Differential due with respect to each of the Transactions at the respective Pricing Rates as of such Remittance

Date (along with any other amounts then due and payable), then Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion exercised in good faith, shall determine each Series Seller which had insufficient Available Income to pay all accrued and unpaid Price Differential at the applicable Pricing Rate as of such Remittance Date and any applicable Mandatory Amortization Amount payments related to the Transaction(s) to which such Series Seller is a party (together with such Series Seller’s share of the custodial fees and any other joint expenses allocated ratably according to the Available Income received by each of the Series Sellers) and deliver notice (which may be delivered via email) to Master Seller, on behalf of each of the Series Sellers, on the Remittance Date of the portion of such Cash Flow Deficiency payable by the respective Series Sellers. Each applicable Series Seller shall be required to pay the portion of the Cash Flow Deficiency allocable to such Series Seller (as set forth in such notice from Buyer) to Buyer, by wire transfer in immediately available funds within one (1) Business Day after such Remittance Date. If any Series Seller shall fail to pay the portion of the Cash Flow Deficiency due from such Series Seller within one (1) Business Day after such Remittance Date, such failure shall constitute a Transaction Event of Default with respect to the Transaction(s) to which each such Series Seller is a party.

(f) All Underlying Purchased Loan Reserves for any Purchased Loan must be held with the applicable Servicer in accordance with Section 28 in segregated accounts held for the benefit of Seller or otherwise subject to control agreements approved by the Buyer. In the event that no Servicer holds any such Underlying Purchased Loan Reserves for a Purchased Loan and Seller would otherwise hold the Underlying Purchased Loan Reserves directly, it shall forward such Underlying Purchased Loan Reserves to the Cash Management Account to be held and applied in accordance with the Purchased Loan Documents.

6. SECURITY INTEREST

Buyer and Seller intend, for all purposes other than those described in Section 22(e), that all Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Loans and not loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Loans. However, in the event any such Transaction is deemed to be a loan (except in the case of the grant of security interests by Seller under clause (b) below, which shall be unconditional as of the date hereof), Master Seller, on behalf of itself and with respect to each Series Seller, hereby pledges all of its right, title, and interest in, to and under and grants a lien on, and security interest in (which lien and security interest shall be of first priority), all of its right, title, and interest in the following property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created and wherever located (collectively, the “Collateral”) to Buyer to secure the payment and performance of all other amounts or obligations owing to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (the “Repurchase Obligations”) (it being understood that the grant of security interest in any items described below which are otherwise sold to Buyer pursuant to any Transaction hereunder is made to secure Buyer’s interest therein in the event any such Transaction is deemed to be a loan):

Buyer’s security interest in a Purchased Loan, or the Collateral as a whole, shall terminate only upon (i) in the case of an individual Purchased Loan, the repurchase thereof in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) in the case of the Collateral as a whole, the termination of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and the documents delivered in connection herewith and therewith. Upon any such termination, Buyer shall deliver to Seller such UCC termination statements and other release documents as may be commercially reasonable to evidence the release of Buyer’s lien on and security interest in the applicable Purchased Loan, or the Collateral, as applicable and to return the Purchased Documents for the Purchased Loan to Seller. For purposes of the grant of the security interest pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the New York Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”). Buyer shall have all of the rights and may exercise all of the remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and the other laws of the State of New York. In furtherance of the foregoing, (a) Buyer, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, shall cause to be filed in such locations as may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby, UCC financing statements and continuation statements (collectively, the “Filings”), and (b) Seller shall from time to time take such further actions as may be reasonably requested by Buyer to maintain and continue the perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby.

Seller hereby irrevocably authorizes Buyer at any time and from time to time to file in any filing office in any appropriate jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (1) indicate the Collateral (i) as all Purchased Loans or words of similar effect, regardless of whether the description of the Purchased Loans in such financing statements includes every component set forth in the definition, or (ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (2) contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including whether Seller is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to Seller. Seller also ratifies its authorization for Buyer to have filed in any jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, Seller also hereby irrevocably authorizes the Buyer and its counsel to file UCC financing statements in form and substance satisfactory to the Buyer, describing the collateral as “All assets of Seller and all assets of each series of interests now or hereafter established by Seller or its member, in each case, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and wheresoever located, and all proceeds and products thereof” or words to that effect, and any limitations on such collateral description.

If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in Section 13(b)(i) of this Agreement:

(iii)

Upon the occurrence of a Facility Event of Default, Buyer may (A) immediately sell, at a public or private sale in a commercially reasonable manner and at such price or prices as Buyer may deem satisfactory in its sole and absolute discretion any or all of the Purchased Loans or (B) in its sole and absolute discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Loans, to give Seller credit for such Purchased Loans in an amount equal to the Market Value of such Purchased Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price for such Purchased Loans and any other amounts owing by Seller under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Loans effected pursuant to this Section 13(b)(iii) shall be applied, (v) first, to the costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with Seller’s default; (w) second, to any and all amounts due under Section 3(h), including, without limitation, costs of cover, if any; (x) third, to the Repurchase Price; and (y) fourth, to return any excess to Seller.

The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Loans on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Purchased Loans may not be liquid at such time. In view of the nature of the Purchased Loans, the parties agree that liquidation of a Transaction or the Purchased Loans pursuant to this

Master Repurchase Agreement

Resource Capital

Section 13(b) or Section 13(c) does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Accordingly, Buyer may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Loans pursuant to this Section 13(b) or Section 13(c), and nothing contained herein shall (A) obligate Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Loans on the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or to liquidate all of the Purchased Loans in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Buyer.

(v)

Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (A) the amount of all expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, actually incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default, (B) all costs actually incurred in connection with covering transactions, and (C) any other actual out-of-pocket loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(vi)

Buyer shall have, in addition to its rights and remedies under the Transaction Documents, all of the rights and remedies provided by applicable federal, state and local laws (including, without limitation, if the Transactions are characterized as secured financings, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC of the State of New York, to the extent that the UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), in equity, and under any other agreement between Buyer and Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Loans against all of Seller’s obligations to Buyer under this Agreement, whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any deficiency.

(vii)

Subject to the notice and grace periods set forth herein, Buyer may exercise any or all of the remedies available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time during the continuance thereof. Except as expressly required herein or in the other Transaction Documents, Buyer shall not be required, to give notice to Seller or any other Person prior to exercising any remedy in respect of an Event of Default. All rights and remedies arising under the Transaction Documents, as amended from time to time, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Buyer may have.

(viii)

Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives any defense Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Purchased Loans, or from any other election of remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

Upon the designation of any Accelerated Repurchase Date, Buyer may, without prior notice to Seller, set off any sum or obligation (whether or not arising under this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured, whether or not contingent and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the sum or obligation) owed by Seller to Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer against any sum or obligation (whether or not arising under this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured, whether or not contingent and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the sum or obligation) owed by Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer to Seller. Buyer will give notice to the other party of any set off effected under this Section 13(b)(ix). If a sum or obligation is unascertained, Buyer may estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other when the obligation is ascertained. Nothing in this Section 13(b)(ix) shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This Section 13(b)(ix) shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, lien or other rights to which any party is at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).

14. LIMITATIONS ON RECOURSE AGAINST SERIES SELLERS

Buyer acknowledges that Master Seller is organized as a series limited liability company under Section 18-215 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. Notwithstanding that this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been executed on behalf of Seller without reference to any particular Series Seller, Buyer agrees to treat each Transaction under this Agreement as the obligation of the particular Series Seller of Master Seller that enters into the Transaction for the related Purchased Loan(s). Provided that no Facility Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, the Repurchase Obligations of any Series Seller relating to or arising from the Transaction(s) to which such Series Seller is a party shall be

(b) Buyer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and/or under any Transaction or may issue one or more participation interests with respect to any or all of the Transactions, without the consent of, and without prior notice to, Seller, to any other Person, and, in connection therewith, may bifurcate or allocate (i.e. senior/subordinate) amounts owed to Buyer; provided, however, that, with respect to any such participation or assignment, unless and until Buyer has assigned or granted participations in and to 100% of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (i) Buyer shall act as exclusive agent for all participants or assignees in any dealings with Seller in connection with such Transactions (it being acknowledged and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject in any event to clause (ii) below, Buyer may grant to any participants or assignees consent or approval rights with respect to certain material decisions or actions under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents) and (ii) Seller shall not be obligated to deal directly with any party other than Buyer in connection with such Transactions, or, with respect to assignments and participations, to pay or reimburse Buyer, assignee or participant for any costs or other amounts that would not have been incurred had no assignment or participation been issued or made, as applicable. Seller shall reasonably cooperate at Buyer’s sole cost and expense with Buyer in connection with any assignment or participation, provided Seller’s obligations under the Transaction Documents are not increased and its rights under the Transaction Documents are not impaired. Seller agrees that any assignee or participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3(i) and Section 29 (subject to the limitations and requirements under Section 29 (it being understood that the applicable documentation required under Section 29(c) shall be delivered to the participating Buyer)); provided that, no assignee or participant will be entitled to any greater payment of Additional Amounts under Section 3(i) or Section 29, than its assignor or participating Buyer would have been entitled to receive with respect to the applicable assigned or participated rights and obligations, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment or Additional Amounts is otherwise set forth herein.

(c) Buyer shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Seller (the “Registrar”), maintain a record of ownership (the “Register”) on which is entered the name and address of all assignees of Buyer and each such assignee’s interest in the rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. All assignments pursuant to Section 18 hereof shall be recorded on the Register. This provision is intended to be interpreted so that the indebtedness (for federal income tax purposes, as set forth in Section 22(e)) evidenced by the Transaction Documents is treated as being in registered form in accordance with Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations. The Register shall be available for inspection by Seller at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Buyer and Seller shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Buyer hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Buyer may, at any time, designate any other Person, including Seller, to be the successor Registrar.

(d) Each Buyer that sells a participation shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Seller, maintain a register on which is entered the name and address of each participant and such participant’s interest in the rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that, no Buyer shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such rights or obligations are in registered form in accordance with Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations. The entries in each Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the applicable Buyer shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in such Participant Register as the owner of the related rights and obligations for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(e) Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties to the Transaction Documents and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under the Transaction Documents.

19. GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

20. NO WAIVERS, ETC.

No express or implied waiver of any Default or Event of Default by Buyer shall constitute a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default and no exercise of any right or remedy hereunder by Buyer shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other right or remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto. Without limitation of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 4(b) or 4(c) hereof will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

21. USE OF EMPLOYEE PLAN ASSETS

(a) No assets of any Plan subject to any provision of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code shall be used in connection with any Transaction. If any such assets are intended to be used by either party hereto (the “Plan Party”) in the Transaction, the Plan Party shall so notify the other party prior to the Transaction. The Plan Party shall represent in writing to the other party that the Transaction does not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and the other party may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to proceed.

Resource Capital

(b) Subject to the last sentence of subparagraph (a) of this Section 21, any such Transaction shall proceed only if Seller furnishes or has furnished to Buyer its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition.

(c) By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Section 21, Seller shall be deemed (i) to represent to Buyer that since the date of Seller’s latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in Seller’s financial condition which Seller has not disclosed to Buyer, and (ii) to agree to provide Buyer with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as it is a Seller in any outstanding Transaction involving a Plan Party.

22. INTENT

(a) The parties intend, agree and acknowledge that: (i) each Transaction qualifies as a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(47) of the Bankruptcy Code, and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) each payment under this Agreement has been made by, to or for the benefit of a financial institution as defined in section 101(22) of the Bankruptcy Code, a financial participant as defined in section 101(22A) of the Bankruptcy Code or repo participant as defined in section 101(46) of the Bankruptcy Code, (iii) the grant of a security interest set forth in Sections 6 and 28(b) hereof to secure the rights of Buyer hereunder also constitutes a “repurchase agreement” as contemplated by Section 101(47)(A)(v) of the Bankruptcy Code and a “securities contract” as contemplated by Section 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code and are a part of this Agreement and (iv) each of the Purchased Loans shall constitute a “security” as defined in Section 101(49) of the Bankruptcy Code, a mortgage loan or an interest in a mortgage loan. It is further understood that this Agreement constitutes a “master netting agreement” as defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code, as amended, with respect to each Transaction so constituting a “repurchase agreement,” or “securities contract”. Each party hereto hereby further agrees that it shall not challenge the characterization of this Agreement as a “repurchase agreement,” “securities contract” and/or “master netting agreement” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) The parties intend, agree and acknowledge that either party’s right to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or to liquidate Purchased Loans delivered to it in connection with the Transaction hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 13 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended. It is further understood and agreed that either party’s right to cause the termination, liquidation, or acceleration of, or to offset net termination values, payment amounts or other transfer obligations arising under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Transaction hereunder is a contractual right to cause the termination, liquidation, or acceleration of, or to offset net termination values, payment amounts or other transfer obligations arising under or in connection with, this Agreement as described in Section 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(c) The parties intend, agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

Master Repurchase Agreement

Resource Capital

(d) It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

(e) Each party intends, agrees and acknowledges that it is its intent for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes to treat the Transactions as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Loans, and the Purchased Loans as owned by Seller for such purposes, that each Series Seller shall be disregarded as a separate entity from the Master Seller and each other Series Seller for such purposes, and each party agrees to take no action inconsistent with such treatment, unless required by applicable law, in which case such party shall promptly notify the other party of such requirement.

(f) In light of the intent set forth above in this Section 22, Seller agrees that, from time to time upon the written request of Buyer, Seller will execute and deliver any supplements, modifications, addendums or other documents as may be necessary, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, in order to cause this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby to qualify for, comply with the provisions of, or otherwise satisfy, maintain or preserve the criteria for safe harbor treatment under the Bankruptcy Code for “repurchase agreements”, “securities contracts” and “master netting agreements”, provided that Seller’s obligations under the Transaction Documents are not increased and its rights under the Transaction Documents are not impaired; provided, however, that Buyer’s failure to request, or Buyer’s or Seller’s failure to execute, such supplements, modifications, addendums or other documents does not in any way alter or otherwise change the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement and the Transactions hereunder constitute “repurchase agreements”, “securities contracts” and/or a “master netting agreement” as such terms are defined in the Bankruptcy Code.

23. DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

24. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

(a) Each party irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States Federal or New York State court sitting in Manhattan, and any appellate court from any such court, solely for the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding brought to enforce its obligations under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction under this Agreement and (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and any right of jurisdiction on account of its place of residence or domicile.

(b) To the extent that either party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, such party hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of any action brought to enforce its obligations under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction under this Agreement.

(c) The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding and irrevocably consent to the service of any summons and complaint and any other process by the mailing of copies of such process to them at their respective address specified herein. The parties hereby agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Section 24 shall affect the right of Buyer to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of Buyer to bring any action or proceeding against Seller or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

(d) EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT DELIVERED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

(vii) Initial Market Value determinations and other information provided to Seller in connection therewith are to be used by Seller for the sole purpose of determining whether to proceed in accordance with Section 3 hereof and for no other purpose.

Notwithstanding the transfer of Servicing Rights to Buyer, Master Seller, on behalf of itself and each Series Seller, shall be entitled to exercise all discretion with respect to any directions or consents to be given to the Servicer of the Purchased Loans (other than Significant Modifications of the Purchased Loans) and to appoint a servicer for each Purchased Loan subject to the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent may be given by Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Master Seller’s and each Series Seller’s rights to exercise such discretion with respect to all of the Purchased Loans (in the case of a Facility Event of Default), or the applicable Purchased Loan (in the case of a Transaction Event of Default) shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect. Any Significant Modification with respect to any Purchased Loan or Purchased Loan Documents shall require Buyer’s prior written consent in accordance with Section 7(e) of this Agreement. Buyer hereby agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, N.A. or any other third party servicer otherwise approved by Buyer in writing (a “Servicer”) may continue to service the Purchased Loans for the benefit of Buyer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the servicing agreement in effect for each such Servicer, provided that each such servicing agreement shall have been approved in writing by Buyer in its reasonable discretion and, if Buyer shall exercise its rights to pledge or hypothecate the Purchased Loans pursuant to Section 8, Buyer’s assigns (each such servicing agreement approved by Buyer (and, if applicable, Buyer’s assigns), a “Servicing Agreement” and, collectively, the “Servicing Agreements”); and provided, further, that any such Servicer shall have entered into a Servicer Notice and Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit IX attached hereto (a “Servicer Notice and Agreement”) acknowledging Buyer’s interests in the related Purchased Loans and its rights to sell such Purchased Loans on a servicing-released basis and to terminate the term of such Servicing Rights with respect to any Purchased Loans sold by Buyer from and after an Event of Default pursuant to its exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 13 hereof.

Seller covenants to safeguard such Servicing Records (if any are in Seller’s possession) and to deliver them promptly to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to Section 13 and any terms in the applicable Servicing Agreements approved by Buyer (i) in the case of a Facility Event of Default, sell its rights to any or all of the Purchased Loans (or in the case of a Transaction Event of Default, sell its rights to the affected Purchased Loan(s)) on a servicing released basis or (ii) in the case of a Facility Event of Default, terminate any Servicer or sub-servicer of any or all of the Purchased Loans (or in the case of a Transaction Event of Default, terminate the Servicer and sub-servicer, if any, for the affected Purchased Loan(s)), with or without cause, in each case without payment of any termination fee. Seller shall cause each Servicer to cooperate with Buyer in effecting such termination and transferring all authority to service such Purchased Loans to the successor servicer, including requiring such Servicer to (i) promptly transfer all data in its possession relating to the applicable Purchased Loans to the successor servicer in such electronic format as the successor servicer may reasonably request, (ii) promptly transfer to the successor servicer, Buyer or Buyer’s designee, the Purchased Loan File and all other files, records, correspondence and documents in its possession relating to the applicable Purchased Loans and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and coordinate with the successor servicer and/or Buyer to comply with any applicable so-called “goodbye” letter requirements or other applicable requirements of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act or other applicable legal or regulatory requirement associated with the transfer of the servicing of the applicable Purchased Loans. Seller agrees that if either Seller or any such Servicer fails to cooperate with Buyer or any successor servicer in effecting the termination of such Servicer as servicer of any Purchased Loan or the transfer of all authority to service such Purchased Loan to such successor servicer in accordance with the terms hereof and the applicable Servicing Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive relief.

(d) Seller shall not employ any Servicers rated below “above average” by S&P, unless such Servicer is otherwise approved by Buyer to service the Purchased Loans (it being acknowledged and agreed that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, N.A. is deemed approved by Buyer. Seller shall collaterally assign to Buyer all of its rights, title and interest under any Servicing Agreements as a condition of allowing the Purchased Loans to be serviced by such Servicer and

shall cause each such Servicer engaged by Seller to execute a Servicer Notice and Agreement with Buyer acknowledging Buyer’s security interest, agreeing that it shall deposit all Income and any other sums required to be remitted to the holder of the Purchased Loans under related Purchased Loan Documents to the Depository for deposit in the Cash Management Account as set forth in Section 5 hereof or as otherwise directed in a written notice signed by Buyer for so long as such Purchased Loan is subject to this Agreement, and acknowledging Buyer’s rights to terminate servicing as otherwise set forth above in this Section 28.

(e) If Servicer is an Affiliate of Seller or Guarantor, the payment of servicing fees shall be subordinate to payment of amounts outstanding under any Transaction and this Agreement.

29. TAXES

(a) Transfer taxes, stamp taxes, documentary, filing, recording and all similar costs with respect to the transfer of Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and the documents delivered in connection herewith and therewith, other than any such taxes and costs that are attributable to an assignment or grant of a participation by Buyer pursuant to Section 18 (but only if no Facility Event of Default or Transaction Event of Default for the relevant Purchased Loan has occurred and is continuing), shall be paid by Seller.

(b) All amounts payable by Seller to Buyer in respect of any transaction under the Transaction Documents shall be paid free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, any Taxes, unless the withholding or deduction of such Tax is required by law. In that event, Seller shall pay such additional amounts (for purposes of this Section 29, the “Additional Amounts”) as will result in the net amounts received by Buyer (after taking account of such withholding or deduction) being equal to such amounts as would have been received by Buyer had no such Tax been required to be withheld or deducted; provided that for purposes of this Section 29(b) the term “Tax” shall not include any income Taxes, franchise Taxes, branch profits Taxes and similar Taxes imposed as a result of Buyer being organized under the laws of, or having its principal office located in, the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) imposing such Tax; provided, further, that Seller shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts to Buyer to the extent that the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts would have not arisen but for the failure of Buyer to comply with the requirements of Section 29(c) or Section 29(d); provided, further, that Seller shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts to Buyer for any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, or any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of Buyer pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which Buyer acquires any interest in the Transaction Documents, except to the extent that such amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable to such Buyer’s assignor immediately before such Buyer became a party hereto (all of such Taxes described in the foregoing three provisos referred to herein as “Excluded Taxes”). Seller shall pay to Buyer, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, the full amount of any Taxes (including Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to Additional Amounts payable pursuant to this Section 29(b)) payable or paid by Buyer or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Buyer and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A

certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Seller shall be conclusive absent manifest error. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Seller to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 29(b), Seller shall deliver to Buyer the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Buyer.

(c) (i) Any Buyer that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction Document shall deliver to Seller, at the time or times reasonably requested by Seller, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Seller as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Buyer, if reasonably requested by Seller, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Seller as will enable Seller to determine whether or not Buyer is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 29(c)(ii) and 29(d) below) shall not be required if in Buyer’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Buyer to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Buyer.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, on or before the date hereof, on or before the date such Person becomes a party to this Agreement or a participant, as applicable, and at the reasonable request of Seller, Buyer and each assignee of Buyer will provide to Seller two copies of, as applicable, a properly completed and duly executed United States Internal Revenue Service form ▇-▇, ▇-▇▇▇▇, ▇-▇▇▇▇, or W-8IMY (or successor form) (with applicable attachments, including, in the case of a Person claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate reasonably satisfactory to Seller to the effect that such Person is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (the “Portfolio Interest Certificate”)). In addition, Buyer shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Seller) on or prior to the date on which such Buyer becomes a Buyer under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Seller to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Initial Buyer shall provide to Seller a properly executed United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, dated on or before the Closing Date, evidencing a complete exemption from withholding or deduction of Tax from amounts payable by Seller to Initial Buyer under the Transaction Documents pursuant to applicable laws in effect on the Closing Date. Seller and Member shall provide to Buyer a properly executed United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or other applicable forms as described by the United States Internal Revenue Service, dated on or before the Closing Date, evidencing a complete exemption from withholding or deduction of Tax from amounts payable by Buyer to Seller under the

Transaction Documents pursuant to applicable laws in effect on the Closing Date. Each party hereto agrees to notify the other party of any circumstance known to it that causes a certificate or document provided by it pursuant to this Section 29(c) to fail to be true and to provide two copies of a properly completed and duly executed updated form and, if applicable, a Portfolio Interest Certificate, upon any previously delivered form becoming invalid, obsolete or inaccurate.

(d) If a payment made to Buyer under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Buyer were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Buyer shall deliver to Seller at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Seller as may be necessary for Seller to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that Buyer has complied with Buyer’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 29(d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(e) Each party’s obligations under this Section 29 shall survive any assignment of rights by Buyer, the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Loans.

30. MISCELLANEOUS

(a) All rights, remedies and powers of Buyer hereunder and in connection herewith are irrevocable and cumulative, and not alternative or exclusive, and shall be in addition to all other rights, remedies and powers of Buyer whether under law, equity or agreement. In addition to the rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, to the extent this Agreement is determined to create a security interest, Buyer shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.

(b) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission (including a .pdf e-mail transmission) of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of such Transaction Document.

(c) The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

(d) Without limiting the rights and remedies of Buyer under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, Seller shall pay Buyer’s reasonable actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of accountants, attorneys and advisors, incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and consummation of and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and/or the other Transaction

Master Repurchase Agreement

Documents and the Transactions thereunder. Seller agrees to pay Buyer on demand all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) of any subsequent enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement and/or the other Transaction Documents, or of the performance by Buyer of any obligations of Seller in respect of the Purchased Loans, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of the Collateral and for the custody, care or preservation of the Collateral (including insurance costs) and defending or asserting rights and claims of Buyer in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise. In addition, Seller agrees to pay Buyer on demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually incurred in connection with the maintenance of the Cash Management Account. All such expenses shall be recourse obligations of Seller to Buyer under this Agreement.

(e) Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

(f) This Agreement together with the Transaction Documents contain a final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to such subject matter, superseding all prior oral or written understandings.

(g) The parties understand that this Agreement is a legally binding agreement that may affect such party’s rights. Each party represents to the other that it has received legal advice from counsel of its choice regarding the meaning and legal significance of this Agreement and that it is satisfied with its legal counsel and the advice received from it.

(h) Should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed against any Person by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the Person who itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties have participated in the preparation of this Agreement.

(i) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

FORM OF POWER OF ATTORNEY

“Know All Men by These Presents, that RCC REAL ESTATE SPE 5, LLC (“Master Seller”), on behalf of itself and each Series Seller (as defined in the Repurchase Agreement (hereinafter defined)) (Master Seller together with each Series Seller which may hereafter be a party to the Repurchase Agreement, collectively, “Seller”) does hereby appoint Deutsche Bank AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“Buyer”), its attorney-in-fact, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to act in Seller’s name, place and stead in any way which Seller could do with respect to (i) the completion of the endorsements of the Mortgage Notes and the Assignments of Mortgages, (ii) the recordation of the Assignments of Mortgages and (iii) the enforcement of Seller’s rights under the Purchased Loans purchased by Buyer pursuant to that certain Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2013 (as amended, modified and/or restated, the “Repurchase Agreement”), between Buyer and Master Seller, and to take such other steps as may be necessary or desirable to enforce Buyer’s rights against such Purchased Loans, the related Purchased Loan Files and the Servicing Records to the extent that Seller is permitted by law to act through an agent; provided, however, that, in the case of a Transaction Event of Default, such appointment shall be limited to actions to be taken only with respect to the applicable Purchased Loan which is the subject of such Transaction Event of Default.

EXHIBIT VI

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

REGARDING INDIVIDUAL PURCHASED LOANS

With respect to each Purchased Loan, the Seller hereby represents and warrants, as of the date herein specified or, if no such date is specified, as of the Purchase Date, that:

1. Whole Loan; Ownership of Purchased Loans. Except with respect to any Purchased Loan that is a Senior Interest, each Purchased Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a mortgage loan. Each Senior Interest is a senior portion (or a pari passu portion of a senior portion) of a whole mortgage loan evidenced by a senior note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to Buyer, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller), participation (other than with respect to any Purchased Loan that is a Participation Interest) or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Purchased Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations (other than with respect to a Purchased Loan that is a Participation Interest), any other ownership interests (other than with respect to a Purchased Loan that is a Senior Interest) on, in or to such Purchased Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Purchased Loan, and, upon the completion of the assignee information therein and Buyer’s countersignature where applicable, the assignment to Buyer constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Purchased Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Purchased Loan.

2. Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Purchased Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) those certain provisions in such Purchased Loan Documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment/yield maintenance fees, charges and/or premiums) are, or may be, further limited or rendered unenforceable by or under applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Purchased Loan Documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentences, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Purchased Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Purchased Loan, that would deny the mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Purchased Loan Documents.

3. Mortgage Provisions. The Purchased Loan Documents for each Purchased Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, nonjudicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

4. Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except prior to the Purchase Date by written instruments set forth in the related Purchased Loan File (a) the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Purchased Loan guaranty, and related Purchased Loan Documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the related Mortgagor nor the related guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Purchased Loan.

5. Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications and upon the completion of the assignee information therein and assignee’s countersignature where applicable, each assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller will constitute a legal, valid and binding assignment from the Seller. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Purchased Loan Schedule, leasehold) interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such Purchased Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances) as of origination was, and as of the Purchase Date, to the best knowledge of Seller (as defined in the Agreement to which this Exhibit VI is attached), is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ liens, recorded materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances which are prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below), and, to the best knowledge of Seller (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances), no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required in order to effect such perfection.

6. Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Purchased Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment, in each case binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Purchased Loan (or with respect to a Purchased Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage, which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property and condominium declarations; and (f) if the related Purchased Loan is cross-collateralized with any other Purchased Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for such other Purchased Loan, provided that none of which items (a) through (f), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or current use of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the preceding sentence, none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the best knowledge of Seller, any other holder of the Purchased Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy.

7. Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Purchased Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Purchased Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Purchased Loan, there are, as of origination, and to the best knowledge of Seller, as of the Purchase Date, no subordinate mortgages or junior liens securing the payment of money encumbering the related Mortgaged Property (other than Permitted Encumbrances, taxes and assessments, mechanics and materialmens liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (5) above), and equipment and other personal property financing. The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured by direct interests in the related Mortgagor.

8. Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Purchased Loan File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances, each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related

Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law, provides that, upon an event of default under the Purchased Loan, a receiver is permitted to be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the mortgagee.

9. UCC Filings. If the related Mortgaged Property is operated as a hospitality property, the Seller has filed and/or recorded or caused to be filed and/or recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording), UCC financing statements in the appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary at the time of the origination of the Purchased Loan to perfect a valid security interest in all items of physical personal property reasonably necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property owned by such Mortgagor and located on the related Mortgaged Property (other than any non-material personal property, any personal property subject to a purchase money security interest, a sale and leaseback financing arrangement as permitted under the terms of the related Purchased Loan Documents or any other personal property leases applicable to such personal property), to the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by recording or filing, as the case may be. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each related Mortgage (or equivalent document) creates a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on the items of personalty described above. No representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection.

10. Condition of Property. Seller or the originator of the Purchased Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six (6) months of origination of the Purchased Loan and within twelve (12) months of the Purchase Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Purchased Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Purchase Date. To the best knowledge of Seller, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable Purchased Loans, as of the Purchase Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (ii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Purchased Loan.

11. Taxes and Assessments. All taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges), or installments thereof, that could be a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that would be of equal or superior priority to the lien of the Mortgage and that prior to the Purchase Date have become delinquent in respect of each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to cover such payments and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges and installments thereof shall not be considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing authority.

12. Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the best knowledge of Seller as of the Purchase Date, there is no proceeding pending, and, to the best knowledge of Seller as of the date of origination and as of the Purchase Date, there is no proceeding threatened, for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

13. Actions Concerning Purchased Loan. As of the date of origination and to the best knowledge of Seller as of the Purchase Date, there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Purchased Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Purchased Loan Documents or (f) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

14. Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments required to be escrowed with lender pursuant to each Purchased Loan are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required to be escrowed with lender under the related Purchased Loan Documents are being conveyed by the Seller to Buyer or its servicer.

15. No Holdbacks. The principal amount of the Purchased Loan stated on the Purchased Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Purchase Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Purchased Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by Seller to merit such holdback).

16. Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Purchased Loan Documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (collectively the “Insurance Rating Requirements”), in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Purchased Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Purchased Loan Documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Purchased Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Purchased Loan Documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for loans originated for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the scenario expected limit (“SEL”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the SEL was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the SEL would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service in an amount not less than 100% of the SEL.

The Purchased Loan Documents require insurance proceeds in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then outstanding principal amount of the related Purchased Loan, the lender (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Purchased Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section required to be paid as of the Purchase Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the lender under the Purchased Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of Buyer. Each related Purchased Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the lender to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by Seller.

17. Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Lots. Each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has access via an irrevocable easement or irrevocable right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been, or will be, made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax lots, in which case the Purchased Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax lots are created.

18. No Encroachments. To the best knowledge of Seller based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the lender’s Title Policy (or, if such policy is not yet issued, a pro forma title policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment) obtained in connection with the origination of each Purchased Loan, all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Purchased Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments the removal of which would not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements obtained with respect to the Title Policy.

19. No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Purchased Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Loan (as defined below) may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date (as defined below)) or an equity participation by Seller.

20. REMIC. The Purchased Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective Purchased Loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Purchased Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Purchased Loan and (B) either: (a) such Purchased Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including buildings and structural components thereof, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Purchased Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Purchased Loan on such date or (ii) at the Purchase Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Purchased Loan on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Purchased Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Purchased Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Purchased Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Purchased Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Purchased Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Purchase Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Purchased Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Purchased Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. Any prepayment premium and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Purchased Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph shall have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

21. Compliance with Usury Laws. The interest rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge, or prepayment premiums) of such Purchased Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

22. Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Purchase Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Purchased Loan.

23. Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the best knowledge of Seller, as of the Purchase Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related mortgagee.

24. Local Law Compliance. To the best knowledge of Seller, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, with respect to the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Purchased Loan as of the date of origination of such Purchased Loan and as of the Purchase Date, there are no material violations of applicable zoning ordinances, building codes and land laws (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) other than those which (i) are insured by the Title Policy or a law and ordinance or other insurance policy or (ii) would not have a material adverse effect on the Purchased Loan. The terms of the Purchased Loan Documents require the Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable governmental regulations, zoning and building laws.

25. Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Purchased Loan Documents that it shall keep all material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations necessary for its operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the best knowledge of Seller based upon a letter from any government authorities or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily Purchased Loans intended for securitization, all such material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations are in effect. The Purchased Loan requires the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

26. Recourse Obligations. The Purchased Loan Documents for each Purchased Loan provide that such Purchased Loan is non-recourse to the related parties thereto except that (a) the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity shall be fully liable for actual losses, liabilities, costs and damages arising from certain acts of the related Mortgagor and/or its principals specified in the related Purchased Loan Documents, which acts generally include the following: (i) acts of fraud or intentional material misrepresentation, (ii) misapplication or misappropriation of rents, insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, (iii) intentional material physical waste of the Mortgaged Property, and (iv) any breach of the environmental covenants contained in the related Purchased Loan Documents, and (b) the Purchased Loan shall become full recourse to the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity, if the related Mortgagor files a voluntary petition under federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law.

27. Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Purchased Loan Documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial Defeasance (as defined in paragraph (32)), of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Purchased Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance defined in (32) below, (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Purchased Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Purchased Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject

Purchased Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Purchased Loan Documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Purchased Loan outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions (as defined below).

In the case of any Purchased Loan, in the event of a taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Purchased Loan in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Purchased Loan.

No Purchased Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross-collateralized with another Purchased Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties, other than in compliance with the REMIC Provisions.

28. Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage with quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, and quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls for properties that have leases contributing more than 5% of the in-place base rent and annual financial statements, which annual financial statements with respect to each Purchased Loan with more than one Mortgagor are in the form of an annual combined balance sheet of the Mortgagor entities (and no other entities), together with the related combined statements of operations, members’ capital and cash flows, including a combining balance sheet and statement of income for the Mortgaged Properties on a combined basis.

29. Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Purchased Loan with a Purchase Date Principal Balance over $20 million, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 (collectively referred to as “TRIA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each other Purchased Loan, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) did not, as of the date of origination of the Purchased Loan, and, to the best knowledge of Seller, do not, as of the Purchase Date, specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Purchased Loan, the related Purchased Loan Documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the mortgagee

from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, or damages related thereto except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms; provided, however, that if TRIA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then, provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Purchased Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor shall not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Purchased Loan Documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Purchased Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

30. Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Purchased Loan contains a “due on sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Purchased Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Purchased Loan Documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the lender which are customarily acceptable to the Seller lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Purchased Loan Documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Purchased Loan Documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in the related Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Purchased Loan Documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Purchased Loan Documents, such as a qualified equityholder, (v) transfers of stock or similar equity units in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs (27) and (32) herein by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Purchased Loan (and which is disclosed in writing to Buyer and approved by Buyer in its sole discretion prior to the Purchase Date of such Purchased Loan), or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Purchased Loan Documents, (ii) purchase money security interests, (iii) any Purchased Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Purchased Loan, or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Purchased Loan Documents provide that to the extent any rating agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

31. Single-Purpose Entity. Each Purchased Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Purchased Loan is outstanding. Both the Purchased Loan Documents and the organizational documents of the Mortgagor with respect to each Purchased Loan with a Purchase Date Principal Balance in excess of $5 million provide that the Mortgagor is a Single-Purpose Entity, and each Purchased Loan with a Purchase Date Principal Balance of $20 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents (or if the Purchased Loan has a Purchase Date Principal Balance equal to $5 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Purchased Loan Documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties securing the Purchased Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Purchased Loan Documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Purchased Loan Documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Purchased Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Purchased Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

32. Defeasance. With respect to any Purchased Loan that, pursuant to the Purchased Loan Documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Purchased Loan Documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Purchased Loan Documents; (ii) the Purchased Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Purchased Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment penalty) or, if the Purchased Loan is an ARD Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date, and if the Purchased Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Loan; (iv) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in (iii) above, (v) if the Mortgagor would continue to own assets in addition to the defeasance collateral, the portion of the Purchased Loan secured by defeasance collateral is required to be assumed (or the mortgagee may require such assumption) by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vi) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the mortgagee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (vii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

33. Fixed Interest Rates. Each Purchased Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Purchased Loan, except in the case of ARD Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

34. Ground Leases. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Ground Lease” shall mean a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner and does not include industrial development agency (▇▇▇) or similar leases for purposes of conferring a tax abatement or other benefit.

With respect to any Purchased Loan where the Purchased Loan is secured by a leasehold estate under a Ground Lease in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of Seller, its successors and assigns, Seller represents and warrants that:

(a)

The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease or an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor permits the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage;

(b)

The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Purchased Loan File (or in such Ground Lease) that the Ground Lease may not be amended or modified, or canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee, without the prior written consent of the lender, and no such consent has been granted by the Seller since the origination of the Purchased Loan except as reflected in any written instruments which are included in the related Purchased Loan File;

(c)

The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either borrower or the mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Purchased Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Purchased Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Purchased Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d)

The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances, or (ii) is subject to a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject;

(e)

The Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Purchased Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder, and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Purchased Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor;

(f)

The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the best knowledge of Seller, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the best knowledge of Seller, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Purchase Date;

(g)

The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the lessee requires the lessor to give to the lender written notice of any default, and provides that no notice of default or termination is effective against the lender unless such notice is given to the lender;

(h)

A lender is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the lender’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i)

The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with loans originated for securitization;

(j)

Under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than (i) de minimis amounts for minor casualties or (ii) in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in subpart (k)) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Purchased Loan Documents) the lender or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Loan, together with any accrued interest;

(k)

In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l)

Provided that the lender cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with lender upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

35. Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Purchased Loan have been, in all respects, legal and have met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

36. Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Purchased Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Purchased Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Purchased Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit VI.

37. No Material Default; Payment Record. No Purchased Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments since origination, and as of the date hereof, no Purchased Loan is more than 30 days delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments as of the Purchase Date. To the best knowledge of Seller, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Purchased Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, in the case of either (a) or (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Purchased Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property, provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit VI. No person other than the holder of such Purchased Loan may declare any event of default under the Purchased Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Purchased Loan Documents.

38. Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Purchased Loan and to the best knowledge of Seller as of the Purchase Date, no Mortgagor, guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

39. Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Purchased Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Purchased Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Purchased Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross defaulted with another Purchased Loan, no Purchased Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of another Mortgagor. (An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (39) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.)

40. Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II site assessment) and, with respect to certain Purchased Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Purchased Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related lender; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, and the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than A- (or the equivalent) by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, S&P and/or Fitch; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the best knowledge of Seller, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

41. Appraisal. The Servicer File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within three (3) months of the Purchased Loan origination date, and within three (3) months of the Purchase Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser who is either a Member of the Appraisal Institute (“MAI”) and/or has been licensed and certified to prepare appraisals in the state where the Mortgaged Property is located. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation and has certified that such appraiser had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and its compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Purchased Loan.

42. Purchased Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Purchased Loan which is set forth in the Purchased Loan Schedule is true and correct in all material respects as of the Purchase Date.

43. Cross-Collateralization. No Purchased Loan is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is not a Purchased Loan.

44. Advance of Funds by the Seller. After origination, no advance of funds has been made by Seller to the related Mortgagor other than in accordance with the Purchased Loan Documents, and, to the best knowledge of Seller, no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate for, or on account of, payments due on the Purchased Loan (other than as contemplated by the Purchased Loan Documents, such as, by way of example and not in limitation of the foregoing, amounts paid by the tenant(s) into a lender-controlled lockbox if required or contemplated under the related lease or Purchased Loan Documents). Neither Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Purchased Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the date hereof.

45. Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Purchased Loan, the failure to comply with which would have a material adverse effect on the Purchased Loan.

For purposes of this Exhibit VI, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Anticipated Repayment Date”: With respect to any Purchased Loan that is indicated on the Purchased Loan Schedule as having a Revised Rate, the date upon which such Purchased Loan commences accruing interest at such Revised Rate.

“ARD Loan”: Any Purchased Loan the terms of which provide that if, after an Anticipated Repayment Date, the Mortgagor has not prepaid such Purchased Loan in full, any principal outstanding on that date will accrue interest at the Revised Rate rather than the Initial Rate.

“REMIC Provisions”: Provisions of the federal income tax law relating to real estate mortgage investment conduits, which appear at Section 860A through 860G of Subchapter M of Chapter 1 of the Code, and related provisions, and regulations (including any applicable proposed regulations) and rulings promulgated thereunder, as the foregoing may be in effect from time to time.

“Revised Rate”: With respect to those Purchased Loans on the Purchased Loan Schedule indicated as having a revised rate, the increased interest rate after the Anticipated Repayment Date (in the absence of a default) for each applicable Purchased Loan, as calculated and as set forth in the related Purchased Loan Documents.

[ ], 2013

[Servicer]

RE:

Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2013 (as amended, modified and/or restated, the “Repurchase Agreement”) between RCC Real Estate SPE 5, LLC, as Master Seller (“Master Seller”), and Deutsche Bank AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as Buyer (“Buyer”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

[ ] (“Servicer”) has entered into that certain Servicing Agreement, dated as of [ ] (the “Servicing Agreement”), with Master Seller (together with any Series Seller (as defined in the Repurchase Agreement) party thereto, collectively, “Seller”) pursuant to which Servicer will be servicing certain commercial mortgage loans which loans are subject to Transactions with Buyer under the Repurchase Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Repurchase Agreement. Servicer is hereby notified of, and agrees to comply with, the following:

The Purchased Loan Documents of each Purchased Loan provide, or Seller or Servicer has delivered a notice to the Mortgagor under each Purchased Loan which provides, that such Mortgagor or other obligor under a Purchased Loan shall pay all amounts payable under the related Purchased Loan to that certain account of Servicer more particularly described on Exhibit A hereof (the “Servicer Account”). Notwithstanding anything contained in the Servicing Agreement to the contrary, Servicer hereby acknowledges and agrees that Servicer shall cause all Available Income received by the Servicer on account of the Purchased Loans to be remitted to that certain account held at ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association entitled “RCC Real Estate SPE 5, LLC, as Master Seller, for the benefit of Deutsche Bank AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as Buyer”, which account is more particularly described on Exhibit A hereof (the “Cash Management Account”), by no later than two (2) Business Days following the date upon which such funds are received in the Servicer Account. Servicer acknowledges that all Income collected on account of the Purchased Loans, whether or not deposited into the Servicer Account is held for the benefit of Buyer.

Servicer agrees to deliver directly to Buyer, at the notice address provided herein, all servicing statements, reports and other information with respect to the Purchased Loans that Servicer is required to deliver to Seller under the Servicing Agreement, on the same date such information is required to be delivered to Seller.

Buyer is the owner of all servicing records, including but not limited to any and all servicing agreements, files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of Purchased Loans (the “Servicing Records”) so long as the Purchased Loans are subject to the Repurchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, Seller has granted Buyer a security interest in all servicing fees and rights relating to the Purchased Loans and all Servicing Records to secure the obligation of Seller or its designee to service in conformity with the Repurchase Agreement and any other obligation of Seller to Buyer. Seller has covenanted to safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to Buyer or its designee at Buyer’s request.

Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Facility Event of Default (or a Transaction Event of Default affecting the Purchased Loans under the Servicing Agreement) under the Repurchase Agreement, Buyer may, in its sole discretion, (i) sell its right to the Purchased Loans (or for a Transaction Event of Default, the affected Purchased Loans) on a servicing released basis or (ii) terminate Servicer as the servicer of the Purchased Loans (or for a Transaction Event of Default, the affected Purchased Loans), with or without cause, in each case without payment of any termination fee. Upon receipt of a notice of a Facility Event of Default or Transaction Event of Default from Buyer, Servicer shall follow the instructions of Buyer, without any further consent from Seller or any other Person, with respect to the Purchased Loans (or affected Purchased Loans) and shall deliver to Buyer any information with respect to the Purchased Loans requested by Buyer.

Notwithstanding any contrary information or direction which may be delivered to Servicer by Seller, Servicer may conclusively rely on any information, direction or notice of an Event of Default delivered by Buyer, and Seller shall indemnify and hold Servicer harmless for any and all claims asserted against Servicer for any actions taken in good faith by Servicer in connection with the delivery of such information or notice of an Event of Default.
