to a Private
Placement Memorandum, dated as of August 9, 2007 (the
"Memorandum").
In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein,
the
Seller and the Purchaser hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Agreement to Purchase. The Seller agrees to sell, and
the
Purchaser agrees to purchase, on a servicing released basis, the
Mortgage Loans
identified on the schedule (the "Mortgage Loan Schedule")
annexed hereto as
Exhibit 1, as such schedule may be amended to reflect the actual
Mortgage Loans
accepted by the Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof. The
Cut-Off Date with
respect to each Mortgage Loan is such Mortgage Loan's Due Date
in the month of
August 2007. The Mortgage Loans will have an aggregate principal
balance as of
the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, after giving effect
to any payments
due on or before such date, whether or not received, of
$749,692,457. The sale
of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on August 23, 2007 or
such other date as
shall be mutually acceptable to the parties hereto (the "Closing
Date"). The
purchase price to be paid by the Purchaser for the Mortgage
Loans shall equal
the amount set forth as such purchase price in the Bill of Sale.
The purchase
price shall be paid to the Seller by wire transfer in
immediately available
funds on the Closing Date.
On the Closing Date, the Purchaser will assign to the
Trustee
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement all of its
right, title and
interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and its rights under this
Agreement (to
the extent set forth in Section 15), and the Trustee shall
succeed to such
right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
Purchaser's
rights under this Agreement (to the extent set forth in Section
15).
Section 2. Conveyance of Mortgage Loans. Effective as of the
Closing
Date, subject only to receipt of the consideration referred to
in Section 1
hereof and the satisfaction of the conditions specified in
Sections 6 and 7
hereof, the Seller does hereby transfer, assign, set over and
otherwise convey
to the Purchaser, without recourse, all the right, title and
interest of the
Seller. The Mortgage Loan Schedule, as it may be amended from
time to time on or
prior to the Closing Date, shall conform to the requirements of
this Agreement
and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with such
transfer and
assignment, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian on behalf
of the Trustee,
on behalf of the Purchaser, on or prior to the Closing Date, the
Mortgage Note
(as described in clause (a) below) for each Mortgage Loan and on
or prior to the
fifth Business Day after the Closing Date, five limited powers
of attorney
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 4 in favor
of the Trustee,
the applicable Master Servicer and the applicable Special
Servicer to empower
the Trustee, the applicable Master Servicer and, in the event of
the failure or
incapacity of the Trustee and the applicable Master Servicer,
the applicable
Special Servicer, to submit for recording, at the expense of the
Seller, any
mortgage loan documents required to be recorded as described in
the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and any intervening assignments with
evidence of recording
thereon that are required to be included in the Mortgage Files
(so long as
original counterparts have previously been delivered to the
Trustee). The Seller
agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Trustee, the applicable
Master Servicer
and the applicable Special Servicer in connection with any
additional powers of
attorney or revisions thereto that are requested by such parties
for purposes of
such recordation. The parties hereto agree that no such power of
attorney shall
be used with respect to any Mortgage Loan by or under
authorization by any party
hereto except to the extent that the absence of a document
described in the
second preceding sentence with respect to such Mortgage Loan
remains unremedied
as of the earlier of (i) the date that is 180 days following the
delivery of
notice of such absence to the Seller, but in no event earlier
than 18 months
from the Closing Date, and (ii) the date (if any) on which such
Mortgage Loan
becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall
submit such
documents for recording, at the Seller's expense, after the
periods set forth
above; provided, however, the Trustee shall not submit such
assignments for
recording if the Seller produces evidence that it has sent any
such assignment
for recording and certifies that the Seller is awaiting its
return from the
applicable recording office. In addition, not later than the
30th day following
the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian on
behalf of the
Trustee each of the remaining documents or instruments specified
below (with
such exceptions and additional time periods as are permitted by
this Section)
with respect to each Mortgage Loan (each, a "Mortgage File").
(The Seller
acknowledges that the term "without recourse" does not modify
the duties of the
Seller under Section 5 hereof.)
All Mortgage Files, or portions thereof, delivered prior to
the
Closing Date are to be held by the Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee in escrow
on behalf of the Seller at all times prior to the Closing Date.

that the proceeds

The Assignment of Mortgage, intervening assignments of Mortgage
and
assignment of Assignment of Leases referred to in clauses (d),
(e) and (f) may
be in the form of a single instrument assigning the Mortgage and
the Assignment
of Leases to the extent permitted by applicable law. To avoid
the unnecessary
expense and administrative inconvenience associated with the
execution and
recording or filing of multiple assignments of mortgages,
assignments of leases
(to the extent separate from the mortgages) and assignments of
UCC financing
statements, the Seller shall execute, in accordance with the
third succeeding
paragraph, the assignments of mortgages, the assignments of
leases (to the
extent separate from the mortgages) and the assignments of UCC
financing
statements relating to the Mortgage Loans naming the Trustee on
behalf of the
Certificateholders as assignee. Notwithstanding the fact that
such assignments
of mortgages, assignments of leases (to the extent separate from
the assignments
of mortgages) and assignments of UCC financing statements shall
name the Trustee
on behalf of the Certificateholders as the assignee, the parties
hereto
acknowledge and agree that the Mortgage Loans shall for all
purposes be deemed
to have been transferred from the Seller to the Purchaser and
from the Purchaser
to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.
If the Seller cannot deliver, or cause to be delivered, as to
any
Mortgage Loan, any of the documents and/or instruments referred
to in clauses
(b), (c), (e) or (f), with evidence of recording thereon,
because of a delay
caused by the public recording office where such document or
instrument has been
delivered for recordation within such 90-day period, but the
Seller delivers a
photocopy thereof (to the extent available, certified by the
appropriate county
recorder's office to be a true and complete copy of the original
thereof
submitted for recording or, if such certification is not
available, together
with an Officer's Certificate of the Seller stating that such
document has been
sent to the appropriate public recording official for
recordation), to the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee within such 90-day period,
the Seller shall
then deliver within 180 days after the Closing Date the recorded
document (or
within such longer period after the Closing Date as the
Custodian on behalf of
the Trustee may consent to, which consent shall not be withheld
so long as the
Seller is, as certified in writing to the Trustee no less often
than monthly, in
good faith attempting to obtain from the appropriate county
recorder's office
such original or photocopy).
The Trustee, as assignee or transferee of the Purchaser, shall
be
entitled to all scheduled payments of principal due thereon
after the Cut-Off
Date, all other payments of principal collected after the
Cut-Off Date (other
than scheduled payments of principal due on or before the
Cut-Off Date), and all
payments of interest on the Mortgage Loans allocable to the
period commencing on
the Cut-Off Date. All scheduled payments of principal and
interest due on or
before the Cut-Off Date and collected after the Cut-Off Date
shall belong to the
Seller.
Within 45 days following the Closing Date, the Seller shall
deliver
and the Purchaser, the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee or the
agents of
either may submit or cause to be submitted for recordation at
the expense of the
Seller, in the appropriate public office for real property
records, each
assignment referred to in clauses (d) and (f)(ii) above (with
recording
information in blank if such information is not yet available).
Within 15 days
following the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver and the
Purchaser, the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee or the agents of either may
submit or cause
to be submitted for filing, at the expense of the Seller, in the
appropriate
public office for Uniform Commercial Code financing statements,
the assignment
referred to in clause (i) above. If any such document or
instrument is lost or
returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a
defect therein,
the Seller shall prepare a substitute therefor or cure such
defect, and the
Seller shall, at its own expense (except in the case of a
document or instrument
that is lost by the Trustee), record or file, as the case may
be, and deliver
such document or instrument in accordance with this Section
2.
As to each Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property
with
respect to which the related Mortgagor has entered into a
franchise agreement
and each Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property with
respect to which a
letter of credit is in place, the Seller shall provide a notice
on or prior to
the date that is thirty (30) days after the Closing Date to the
franchisor or
the issuing financial institution, as applicable, of the
transfer of such
Mortgage Loan to the Trust pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, and
inform such parties that any notices to the Mortgagor's lender
pursuant to such
franchise agreement or letter of credit should thereafter be
forwarded to the
applicable Master Servicer and, with respect to each franchise
agreement,
provide a franchise comfort letter to the franchisor on or prior
to the date
that is thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. After the
Closing Date, with
respect to any letter of credit that has not yet been assigned
to the Trust,
upon the written request of the applicable Master Servicer or
the applicable
Primary Servicer, the Seller will draw on such letter of credit
as directed by
such Master Servicer or such Primary Servicer in such notice to
the extent the
Seller has the right to do so.
Documents that are in the possession of the Seller, its agents
or
its subcontractors that relate to the servicing of any Mortgage
Loans and that
are not required to be a part of the Mortgage File and are
reasonably necessary
for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the
applicable Mortgage Loan
(the "Servicing File") shall be delivered by the Seller to or at
the direction
of the applicable Master Servicer, on behalf of the Purchaser,
on or prior to
the 75th day after the Closing Date, in accordance with the
Primary Servicing
Agreement, if applicable.
The Servicing File shall include, to the extent required to be
(and
actually) delivered to the Seller pursuant to the applicable
Mortgage Loan
documents, copies of the following items: the Mortgage Note, any
Mortgage, the
Assignment of Leases and the Assignment of Mortgage, any
guaranty/indemnity
agreement, any loan agreement, the insurance policies or
certificates, as
applicable, the property inspection reports, any financial
statements on the
property, any escrow analysis, the tax bills, the Appraisal, the
environmental
report, the engineering report, the asset summary, financial
information on the
Mortgagor/sponsor and any guarantors, any letters of credit, any
intercreditor
agreements and any Environmental Insurance Policies; provided,
however, the
Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents,
attorney-client
privileged communications, internal correspondence or credit
analysis. Delivery
of any of the foregoing documents to the Primary Servicer shall
be deemed a
delivery to the applicable Master Servicer and satisfy Seller's
obligations
under this sub-paragraph.
Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the
Purchaser
pursuant to this Agreement, the ownership of each Mortgage Note,
Mortgage and
the other contents of the related Mortgage File shall be vested
in the Purchaser
and its assigns, and the ownership of all records and documents
with respect to
the related Mortgage Loan prepared by or that come into the
possession of the
Seller shall immediately vest in the Purchaser and its assigns,
and shall be
delivered promptly by the Seller to or on behalf of either the
Custodian (on
behalf of the Trustee) or the applicable Master Servicer as set
forth herein,
subject to the requirements of the Primary Servicing Agreement.
The Seller's and
Purchaser's records shall reflect the transfer of each Mortgage
Loan from the
Seller to the Purchaser and its assigns as a sale.
It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the
conveyance
of the Mortgage Loans and related property to the Purchaser by
the Seller as
provided in this Section 2 be, and be construed as, an absolute
sale of the
Mortgage Loans and related property. It is, further, not the
intention of the
parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage
Loans and
related property by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt
or other
obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that,
notwithstanding the intent
of the parties, the Mortgage Loans or any related property are
held to be the
property of the Seller, or if for any other reason this
Agreement is held or
deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans or
any related
property, then:
(i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement;
and
(ii) the conveyance provided for in this Section 2 shall be
deemed
to be a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of a security
interest in all
of the Seller's right, title, and interest, whether now owned or
hereafter
acquired, in and to:
(A) All accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper,
instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates
of
deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit and
investment
property consisting of, arising from or relating to any of
the
following property: the Mortgage Loans identified on the
Mortgage
Loan Schedule, including the related Mortgage Notes,
Mortgages,
security agreements, and title, hazard and other insurance
policies,
all distributions with respect thereto payable after the
Cut-Off
Date, all substitute or replacement Mortgage Loans and all
distributions with respect thereto, and the Mortgage Files;
(B) All accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper,
instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates
of
deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit,
investment
property and other rights arising from or by virtue of the
disposition of, or collections with respect to, or insurance
proceeds payable with respect to, or claims against other
Persons
with respect to, all or any part of the collateral described
in
clause (A) above (including any accrued discount realized on
liquidation of any investment purchased at a discount); and
(C) All cash and non-cash proceeds of the collateral
described
in clauses (A) and (B) above.
The possession by the Purchaser or its designee of the
Mortgage
Notes, the Mortgages, and such other goods, letters of credit,
advices of
credit, instruments, money, documents, chattel paper or
certificated securities
shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party or
possession by a
purchaser for purposes of perfecting the security interest
pursuant to the
Uniform Commercial Code (including, without limitation, Sections
9-305 and 9-115
thereof) as in force in the relevant jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Seller makes no representation or warranty as to
the perfection
of any such security interest.
Notifications to Persons holding such property, and
acknowledgments,
receipts, or confirmations from persons holding such property,
shall be deemed
to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or
confirmations from,
securities intermediaries, bailees or agents of, or Persons
holding for, the
Purchaser or its designee, as applicable, for the purpose of
perfecting such
security interest under applicable law.
The Seller shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement,
take
such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if
this Agreement
were deemed to create a security interest in the property
described above, such
security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security
interest of first
priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such
throughout the term
of the Agreement. In such case, the Seller shall file all
filings necessary to
maintain the effectiveness of any original filings necessary
under the Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction to perfect such
security
interest in such property. In connection herewith, the Purchaser
shall have all
of the rights and remedies of a secured party and creditor under
the Uniform
Commercial Code as in force in the relevant jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
and
subject to Section 2(a), the Purchaser shall not be required to
purchase any
Mortgage Loan as to which any Mortgage Note (endorsed as
described in clause (a)
above) or lost note affidavit and indemnity required to be
delivered to or on
behalf of the Trustee or the applicable Master Servicer pursuant
to this Section
2 on or before the Closing Date is not so delivered, or is not
properly executed
or is defective on its face, and the Purchaser's acceptance of
the related
Mortgage Loan on the Closing Date shall in no way constitute a
waiver of such
omission or defect or of the Purchaser's or its successors' and
assigns' rights
in respect thereof pursuant to Section 5.
Section 3. Examination of Mortgage Files and Due Diligence
Review.
The Seller shall (i) deliver to the Purchaser on or before the
Closing Date a
diskette acceptable to the Purchaser that contains such
information about the
Mortgage Loans as may be reasonably requested by the Purchaser,
(ii) deliver to
the Purchaser investor files (collectively the "Collateral
Information") with
respect to the assets proposed to be included in the Mortgage
Pool and made
available at the Purchaser's headquarters in New York, and (iii)
otherwise
cooperate fully with the Purchaser in its examination of the
credit files,
underwriting documentation and Mortgage Files for the Mortgage
Loans and its due
diligence review of the Mortgage Loans. The fact that the
Purchaser has
conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or complete
examination of the
credit files, underwriting documentation or Mortgage Files for
the Mortgage
Loans shall not affect the right of the Purchaser or the Trustee
to cause the
Seller to cure any Material Document Defect or Material Breach
(each as defined
below), or to repurchase or replace the defective Mortgage Loans
pursuant to
Section 5 of this Agreement.
On or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall allow
representatives of any of the Purchaser, each Underwriter, the
Initial
Purchaser, the Trustee, the Custodian, the applicable Special
Servicer and each
Rating Agency to examine and audit all books, records and files
pertaining to
the Mortgage Loans, the Seller's underwriting procedures and the
Seller's
ability to perform or observe all of the terms, covenants and
conditions of this
Agreement. Such examinations and audits shall take place at one
or more offices
of the Seller during normal business hours and shall not be
conducted in a
manner that is disruptive to the Seller's normal business
operations upon
reasonable prior advance notice. In the course of such
examinations and audits,
the Seller will make available to such representatives of any of
the Purchaser,
each Underwriter, the Initial Purchaser, the Trustee, the
Custodian, the
applicable Special Servicer and each Rating Agency reasonably
adequate
facilities, as well as the assistance of a sufficient number of
knowledgeable
and responsible individuals who are familiar with the Mortgage
Loans and the
terms of this Agreement, and the Seller shall cooperate fully
with any such
examination and audit in all material respects. On or prior to
the Closing Date,
the Seller shall provide the Purchaser with all material
information regarding
the Seller's financial condition and access to knowledgeable
financial or
accounting officers for the purpose of answering questions with
respect to the
Seller's financial condition, financial statements as provided
to the Purchaser
or other developments affecting the Seller's ability to
consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise affecting the
Seller in any
material respect. Within 45 days after the Closing Date, the
Seller shall
provide the applicable Master Servicer or Primary Servicer, if
applicable, with
any additional information identified by such Master Servicer or
Primary
Servicer, if applicable, as necessary to complete the CMSA
Property File, to the
extent that such information is available.
The Purchaser may exercise any of its rights hereunder through
one
or more designees or agents; provided the Purchaser has provided
the Seller with
prior notice of the identity of such designee or agent.
The Purchaser shall keep confidential any information regarding
the
Seller and the Mortgage Loans that has been delivered into the
Purchaser's
possession and that is not otherwise publicly available;
provided, however, that
such information shall not be kept confidential (and the right
to require
confidentiality under any confidentiality agreement is hereby
waived) to the
extent such information is required to be included in the
Memorandum or the
Prospectus Supplement or the Purchaser is required by law or
court order to
disclose such information. If the Purchaser is required to
disclose in the
Memorandum or the Prospectus Supplement confidential information
regarding the
Seller as described in the preceding sentence, the Purchaser
shall provide to
the Seller a copy of the proposed form of such disclosure prior
to making such
disclosure and the Seller shall promptly, and in any event
within two Business
Days, notify the Purchaser of any inaccuracies therein, in which
case the
Purchaser shall modify such form in a manner that corrects such
inaccuracies. If
the Purchaser is required by law or court order to disclose
confidential
information regarding the Seller as described in the second
preceding sentence,
the Purchaser shall notify the Seller and cooperate in the
Seller's efforts to
obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that
confidential
treatment will be accorded such information and, if in the
absence of a
protective order or such assurance, the Purchaser is compelled
as a matter of
law to disclose such information, the Purchaser shall, prior to
making such
disclosure, advise and consult with the Seller and its counsel
as to such
disclosure and the nature and wording of such disclosure and the
Purchaser shall
use reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment
therefor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if reasonably advised by counsel
that the
Purchaser is required by a regulatory agency or court order to
make such
disclosure immediately, then the Purchaser shall be permitted to
make such
disclosure without prior review by the Seller.
Section 4. Representations and Warranties of the Seller and
the
Purchaser.
(a) To induce the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, the
Seller
hereby makes for the benefit of the Purchaser and its assigns
with respect to
each Mortgage Loan as of the date hereof (or as of such other
date specifically
set forth in the particular representation and warranty) each of
the
representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit 2 hereto,
except as
otherwise set forth on Schedule A attached hereto, and hereby
further represents
and warrants to the Purchaser as of the date hereof that:
(i) The Seller is duly organized and is validly existing as
a
limited liability company in good standing under the laws of
Delaware. The
Seller has the requisite power and authority and legal right to
own the
Mortgage Loans and to transfer and convey the Mortgage Loans to
the
Purchaser and has the requisite power and authority to execute
and
deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform
and
observe the terms and conditions of, this Agreement.
(ii) This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized,
executed
and delivered by the Seller, and assuming the due authorization,
execution
and delivery hereof by the Purchaser, this Agreement constitutes
the
valid, legal and binding agreement of the Seller, enforceable
in
accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be
limited by
(A) laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
receivership
or moratorium, (B) other laws relating to or affecting the
rights of
creditors generally, (C) general equity principles (regardless
of whether
such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law) or (D)
public policy considerations underlying the securities laws, to
the extent
that such public policy considerations limit the enforceability
of the
provisions of this Agreement that purport to provide
indemnification from
liabilities under applicable securities laws.
(iii) No consent, approval, authorization or order of,
registration
or filing with, or notice to, any governmental authority or
court is
required, under federal or state law, for the execution,
delivery and
performance of or compliance by the Seller with this Agreement,
or the
consummation by the Seller of any transaction contemplated
hereby, other
than (1) such qualifications as may be required under state
securities or
blue sky laws, (2) the filing or recording of financing
statements,
instruments of assignment and other similar documents necessary
in
connection with the Seller's sale of the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser,
(3) such consents, approvals, authorizations,
qualifications,
registrations, filings or notices as have been obtained and (4)
where the
lack of such consent, approval, authorization,
qualification,
registration, filing or notice would not have a material adverse
effect on
the performance by the Seller under this Agreement.
(iv) Neither the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser,
nor the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by
the
Seller, conflicts or will conflict with, results or will result
in a
breach of, or constitutes or will constitute a default under (A)
any term
or provision of the Seller's articles of organization, limited
liability
company operating agreement or by-laws, (B) any term or
provision of any
material agreement, contract, instrument or indenture to which
the Seller
is a party or by which it or any of its assets is bound or
results in the
creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon
any of its
property pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, mortgage,
contract
or other instrument, other than pursuant to this Agreement, or
(C) after
giving effect to the consents or taking of the actions
contemplated in
subsection (iii), any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment,
writ,
injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority
having
jurisdiction over the Seller or its assets, except where in any
of the
instances contemplated by clauses (B) or (C) above, any
conflict, breach
or default, or creation or imposition of any lien, charge or
encumbrance,
will not have a material adverse effect on the consummation of
the
transactions contemplated hereby by the Seller or materially and
adversely
affect its ability to perform its obligations and duties
hereunder or
result in any material adverse change in the business,
operations,
financial condition, properties or assets of the Seller, or in
any
material impairment of the right or ability of the Seller to
carry on its
business substantially as now conducted.
(v) There are no actions or proceedings against, or
investigations
of, the Seller pending or, to the Seller's knowledge, threatened
in
writing against the Seller before any court, administrative
agency or
other tribunal, the outcome of which could reasonably be
expected to
materially and adversely affect the transfer of the Mortgage
Loans to the
Purchaser or the execution or delivery by, or enforceability
against, the
Seller of this Agreement or have an effect on the financial
condition of
the Seller that would materially and adversely affect the
ability of the
Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
(vi) On the Closing Date, the sale of the Mortgage Loans
pursuant to
this Agreement will effect a transfer by the Seller of all of
its right,
title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser.
To induce the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, the
Seller
hereby covenants that the foregoing representations and
warranties and those set
forth on Exhibit 2 hereto, will be true and correct in all
material respects on
and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on
the Closing Date,
provided that any representations and warranties made as of a
specified date
shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such
specified date.
Each of the representations, warranties and covenants made by
the
Seller pursuant to this Section 4(a) shall survive the sale of
the Mortgage
Loans and shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding any
restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Mortgage Notes.
(b) To induce the Seller to enter into this Agreement, the
Purchaser
hereby represents and warrants to the Seller as of the date
hereof:
(i) The Purchaser is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing,
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware
with full
power and authority to carry on its business as presently
conducted by it.
(ii) The Purchaser has full power and authority to acquire
the
Mortgage Loans, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to
enter into
and consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
The
Purchaser has duly and validly authorized the execution,
delivery and
performance of this Agreement and has duly and validly executed
and
delivered this Agreement. This Agreement, assuming due
authorization,
execution and delivery by the Seller, constitutes the valid and
binding
obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against it in
accordance with its
terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by
bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws
affecting
the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
principles
of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is considered
in a
proceeding in equity or at law.
(iii) No consent, approval, authorization or order of,
registration
or filing with, or notice to, any governmental authority or
court is
required, under federal or state law, for the execution,
delivery and
performance of or compliance by the Purchaser with this
Agreement, or the
consummation by the Purchaser of any transaction contemplated
hereby that
has not been obtained or made by the Purchaser.
(iv) Neither the purchase of the Mortgage Loans nor the
execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser will
violate
the Purchaser's certificate of incorporation or by-laws or
constitute a
default (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would
constitute a default) under, or result in a breach of, any
material
agreement, contract, instrument or indenture to which the
Purchaser is a
party or that may be applicable to the Purchaser or its
assets.
(v) The Purchaser's execution and delivery of this Agreement and
its
performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement will
not
constitute a violation of, any law, rule, writ, injunction,
order or
decree of any court, or order or regulation of any federal,
state or
municipal government agency having jurisdiction over the
Purchaser or its
assets, which violation could materially and adversely affect
the
condition (financial or otherwise) or the operation of the
Purchaser or
its assets or could materially and adversely affect its ability
to perform
its obligations and duties hereunder.
(vi) There are no actions or proceedings against, or
investigations
of, the Purchaser pending or, to the Purchaser's knowledge,
threatened
against the Purchaser before any court, administrative agency or
other
tribunal, the outcome of which could reasonably be expected to
adversely
affect the transfer of the Mortgage Loans, the issuance of
the
Certificates, the execution, delivery or enforceability of this
Agreement
or have an effect on the financial condition of the Purchaser
that would
materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to
perform
its obligation under this Agreement.
(vii) The Purchaser has not dealt with any broker,
investment
banker, agent or other person, other than the Seller, the
Underwriters,
the Initial Purchaser and their respective affiliates, that may
be
entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with
the sale of
the Mortgage Loans or consummation of any of the transactions
contemplated
hereby.
To induce the Seller to enter into this Agreement, the
Purchaser
hereby covenants that the foregoing representations and
warranties will be true
and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing
Date with the same
effect as if made on the Closing Date.
Each of the representations and warranties made by the
Purchaser
pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall survive the purchase of the
Mortgage Loans.
Section 5. Remedies Upon Breach of Representations and
Warranties
Made by the Seller.
(a) It is hereby acknowledged that the Seller shall make for
the
benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the holders of the
Certificates, whether
directly or by way of the Purchaser's assignment of its rights
hereunder to the
Trustee, the representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit
2 hereto (each
as of the date hereof unless otherwise specified).
(b) It is hereby further acknowledged that if any document
required
to be delivered to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee
pursuant to Section 2
is not delivered as and when required (and including the
expiration of any grace
or cure period), is not properly executed or is defective on its
face, or if
there is a breach of any of the representations and warranties
required to be
made by the Seller regarding the characteristics of the Mortgage
Loans and/or
the related Mortgaged Properties as set forth in Exhibit 2
hereto, and in either
case such defect or breach, either (i) materially and adversely
affects the
interests of the holders of the Certificates in the related
Mortgage Loan, or
(ii) both (A) the document defect or breach materially and
adversely affects the
value of the Mortgage Loan and (B) the Mortgage Loan is a
Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan or Rehabilitated Mortgage Loan (such a document
defect described
in the preceding clause (i) or (ii), a "Material Document
Defect" and such a
breach described in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) a "Material
Breach"), the
party discovering such Material Document Defect or Material
Breach shall
promptly notify, in writing, the other party; provided that any
breach of the
representation and warranty contained in paragraph (38) of such
Exhibit 2 shall
constitute a Material Breach only if such prepayment premium or
yield
maintenance charge is not deemed "customary" for commercial
mortgage loans as
evidenced by (i) an opinion of tax counsel to such effect or
(ii) a
determination by the Internal Revenue Service that such
provision is not
customary. Promptly (but in any event within three Business
Days) upon becoming
aware of any such Material Document Defect or Material Breach,
the applicable
Master Servicer shall, and the applicable Special Servicer may,
request that the
Seller, not later than 90 days from the Seller's receipt of the
notice of such
Material Document Defect or Material Breach, cure such Material
Document Defect
or Material Breach, as the case may be, in all material
respects; provided,
however, that if such Material Document Defect or Material
Breach, as the case
may be, cannot be corrected or cured in all material respects
within such 90-day
period, and such Material Document Defect or Material Breach
would not cause the
Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" (as
defined in the Code),
but the Seller is diligently attempting to effect such
correction or cure, as
certified by the Seller in an Officer's Certificate delivered to
the Trustee,
then the cure period will be extended for an additional 90 days
unless, solely
in the case of a Material Document Defect, (x) the Mortgage Loan
is, at the end
of the initial 90-day period, a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan
and a Servicing
Transfer Event has occurred as a result of a monetary default or
as described in
clause (ii) or clause (v) of the definition of "Servicing
Transfer Event" in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (y) the Material Document
Defect was
identified in a certification delivered to the Seller by the
Trustee pursuant to
Section 2.2 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement not less than
90 days prior
to the delivery of the notice of such Material Document Defect.
The parties
acknowledge that neither delivery of a certification or schedule
of exceptions
to the Seller pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or
otherwise nor possession of such certification or schedule by
the Seller shall,
in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of any Material
Document Defect
or knowledge or awareness by the Seller of any Material Document
Defect listed
therein.
The Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, if any such
Material
Document Defect or Material Breach cannot be corrected or cured
in all material
aspects within the above cure periods, the Seller shall, on or
before the
termination of such cure periods, either (i) repurchase the
affected Mortgage
Loan or REO Mortgage Loan from the Purchaser or its assignee at
the Purchase
Price as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or (ii)
if within the
two-year period commencing on the Closing Date, at its option
replace, without
recourse, any Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan to which such
defect relates
with a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan. If such Material
Document Defect or
Material Breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a
"qualified
mortgage" (as defined in the Code), then notwithstanding the
previous sentence,
such repurchase or substitution must occur within 90 days from
the earlier of
the date the Seller discovered or was notified of the breach or
defect. The
Seller agrees that any substitution shall be completed in
accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
If (i) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced in
connection with a Material Document Defect or Material Breach as
contemplated
above, (ii) such Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized and
cross-defaulted with
one or more other Mortgage Loans (each, a "Cross-Collateralized
Loan" and
collectively, the "Crossed Group") in the Trust and (iii) the
applicable
document defect or breach does not constitute a Material
Document Defect or
Material Breach, as the case may be, as to such other Mortgage
Loans included in
the Crossed Group (without regard to this paragraph), then the
applicable
document defect or breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed
to constitute a
Material Document Defect or Material Breach, as the case may be,
as to each such
other Mortgage Loan included in the Crossed Group for purposes
of the above
provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or
replace each such
other Mortgage Loan included in the Crossed Group in accordance
with the
provisions above, unless, in the case of such breach or document
defect, both of
the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were
to repurchase or
replace only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Breach
had occurred
without regard to this paragraph (the "Affected Loan(s)"): (1)
the debt service
coverage ratio for all such other Mortgage Loans included in the
Crossed Group
(excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters
immediately
preceding the repurchase or replacement (determined as provided
in the
definition of Debt Service Coverage Ratio in the Pooling and
Servicing
Agreement, except that net cash flow for such four calendar
quarters, rather
than year-end, shall be used) is at least equal to the greater
of (x) the
weighted average debt service coverage ratio for all such
Mortgage Loans in the
Crossed Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth under
the heading "NCF
DSCR" in Appendix II to the Final Prospectus Supplement and (y)
1.25x, and (2)
the Loan-to-Value Ratio for all such other Mortgage Loans in the
Crossed Group
(excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the lesser
of (x) the
current loan-to-value ratio for all such Mortgage Loans in the
Crossed Group
(including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth under the heading
"Cut-Off Date LTV"
in Appendix II to the Final Prospectus Supplement and (y) 75%.
The determination
of the applicable Master Servicer as to whether either of the
conditions set
forth above has been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding
in the absence of
manifest error. The applicable Master Servicer will be entitled
to cause, or
direct the Seller to cause, to be delivered to such Master
Servicer at the
Seller's expense (i) an Appraisal of any or all of the related
Mortgaged
Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set
forth in clause
(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the
Seller if the
scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller (such
approval not to
be unreasonably withheld) and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel that
not requiring the
repurchase of each such Cross-Collateralized Loan in the Crossed
Group will not
result in an Adverse REMIC Event.
With respect to any Cross-Collateralized Loan, to the extent
that
the Seller is required to repurchase or substitute for such
Mortgage Loan (each,
a "Repurchased Loan") in the manner prescribed above while the
Trustee (as
assignee of the Purchaser) continues to hold any other
Cross-Collateralized Loan
in the Crossed Group, the Seller and the Purchaser hereby agree
to modify, prior
to such repurchase or substitution, the related Mortgage Loan
documents in a
manner such that such affected Repurchased Loan, on the one
hand, and any other
Crossed-Collateralized Loans in the Crossed Group held by the
Trustee, on the
other, would no longer be cross-defaulted or
cross-collateralized with one
another; provided that the Seller shall have furnished the
Trustee, at the
expense of the Seller, a nondisqualification opinion that such
modification
shall not cause an Adverse REMIC Event; provided, further, that
if such
nondisqualification opinion cannot be furnished, the Seller and
the Purchaser
agree that such repurchase or substitution of only the
Repurchased Loan,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, shall not be
permitted and the
Seller shall repurchase or substitute for the Repurchased Loan
and all other
Crossed-Collateralized Loans in the Crossed Group. Any reserve
or other cash
collateral or letters of credit securing the
Cross-Collateralized Loans shall be
allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
Mortgage Loan
documents. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in
full force and
effect, without any modification thereof. The Mortgagors set
forth on Schedule B
hereto are intended third-party beneficiaries of the provisions
set forth in
this paragraph and the preceding paragraph. The provisions of
this paragraph and
the preceding paragraph may not be modified with respect to any
Mortgage Loan
without the related Mortgagor's consent.
Upon occurrence (and after any applicable cure or grace period),
any
of the following document defects shall be conclusively presumed
materially and
adversely to affect the interests of Certificateholders in a
Mortgage Loan and
be a Material Document Defect: (i) the absence from the Mortgage
File of the
original signed Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage File contains
a signed lost
note affidavit and indemnity and a copy of the Mortgage Note;
(ii) the absence
from the Mortgage File of the item called for by paragraph (b)
of the definition
of Mortgage File; or (iii) the absence from the Mortgage File of
the item called
for by paragraph (h) of the definition of Mortgage File. If any
of the foregoing
Material Document Defects is discovered by the Custodian (or the
Trustee if
there is no Custodian), the Trustee (or as set forth in Section
2.3(a) of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the applicable Master Servicer)
will take the
steps described elsewhere in this Section, including the giving
of notices to
the Rating Agencies and the parties hereto and making demand
upon the Seller for
the cure of the Material Document Defect or repurchase or
replacement of the
related Mortgage Loan.
If the Seller disputes that a Material Document Defect or
Material
Breach exists with respect to a Mortgage Loan or otherwise
refuses (i) to effect
a correction or cure of such Material Document Defect or
Material Breach, (ii)
to repurchase the Affected Loan from the Trust or (iii) to
replace such Mortgage
Loan with a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan, then provided
that (x) the
period of time provided for the Seller to correct, repurchase or
cure has
expired and (y) the Mortgage Loan is then in default and is then
a Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Special Servicer may,
subject to the
Servicing Standard, modify, work-out or foreclose, sell or
otherwise liquidate
(or permit the liquidation of) the Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 9.5,
Section 9.12, Section 9.15 and Section 9.36, as applicable, of
the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, while pursuing the repurchase claim. The
Seller
acknowledges and agrees that any modification of the Mortgage
Loan pursuant to
such a work-out shall not constitute a defense to any repurchase
claim nor shall
such modification or work-out change the Purchase Price due from
the Seller for
any repurchase claim. Any sale of the Mortgage Loan, or
foreclosure upon such
Mortgage Loan and sale of the REO Property, to a Person other
than the Seller
shall be without (i) recourse of any kind (either express or
implied) by such
Person against the Seller and (ii) representation or warranty of
any kind
(either express or implied) by the Seller to or for the benefit
of such Person.
The fact that a Material Document Defect or Material Breach is
not
discovered until after foreclosure (but in all instances prior
to the sale of
the related REO Property or Mortgage Loan) shall not prejudice
any claim against
the Seller for repurchase of the REO Mortgage Loan or REO
Property. In such an
event, the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special
Servicer, as
applicable, shall be required to notify the Seller of the
discovery of the
Material Document Defect or Material Breach and the Seller shall
be required to
follow the procedures set forth in this Agreement to correct or
cure such
Material Document Defect or Material Breach or purchase the REO
Property at the
Purchase Price. If the Seller fails to correct or cure the
Material Document
Defect or Material Breach or purchase the REO Property, then the
provisions
above regarding notice of offers related to such REO Property
and the Seller's
right to purchase such REO Property shall apply. If a court of
competent
jurisdiction issues a final order that the Seller is or was
obligated to
repurchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan or the
Seller
otherwise accepts liability, then, after the expiration of any
applicable appeal
period, but in no event later than the termination of the Trust
pursuant to
Section 9.30 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller
will be
obligated to pay to the Trust the difference between any
Liquidation Proceeds
received upon such liquidation (including those arising from any
sale to the
Seller) and the Purchase Price; provided that the prevailing
party in such
action shall be entitled to recover all costs, fees and expenses
(including
reasonable attorneys' fees) related thereto.
In connection with any liquidation or sale of a Mortgage Loan or
REO
Property as described above, the applicable Special Servicer
will not receive a
Liquidation Fee in connection with such liquidation or sale or
any portion of
the Work-Out Fee that accrues after the Seller receives notice
of a Material
Document Defect or Material Breach until a final determination
has been made, as
set forth in the prior paragraph, as to whether the Seller is or
was obligated
to repurchase such related Mortgage Loan or REO Property. Upon
such
determination, the applicable Special Servicer will be entitled:
(i) with
respect to a determination that the Seller is or was obligated
to repurchase, to
collect a Liquidation Fee, if due in accordance with the
definition thereof,
based upon the full Purchase Price of the related Mortgage Loan
or REO property,
with such Liquidation Fee payable by the Seller or (ii) with
respect to a
determination that Seller is not or was not obligated to
repurchase (or the
Trust decides that it will no longer pursue a claim against the
Seller for
repurchase), (A) to collect a Liquidation Fee based upon the
Liquidation
Proceeds as received upon the actual sale or liquidation of such
Mortgage Loan
or REO Property, and (B) to collect any accrued and unpaid
Work-Out Fee, based
on amounts that were collected for as long as the related
Mortgage Loan was a
Rehabilitated Mortgage Loan, in each case with such amount to be
paid from
amounts in the Certificate Account.
The obligations of the Seller set forth in this Section 5(b) to
cure
a Material Document Defect or a Material Breach or repurchase or
replace a
defective Mortgage Loan constitute the sole remedies of the
Purchaser or its
assignees with respect to a Material Document Defect or Material
Breach in
respect of an outstanding Mortgage Loan; provided, that this
limitation shall
not in any way limit the Purchaser's rights or remedies upon
breach of any other
representation or warranty or covenant by the Seller set forth
in this Agreement
(other than those set forth in Exhibit 2).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that there is a
breach
of the representation and warranty set forth in paragraph 41 of
Exhibit 2
attached hereto because the underlying loan documents do not
provide for the
payment by the Mortgagor of reasonable costs and expenses
associated with the
defeasance or assumption of a Mortgage Loan by the Mortgagor,
the Seller hereby
covenants and agrees to pay such reasonable costs and expenses,
to the extent an
amount is due and not paid by the related Mortgagor. The parties
hereto
acknowledge that the payment of such reasonable costs and
expenses shall be the
Seller's sole obligation with respect to the breaches discussed
in the previous
sentence. The Seller shall have no obligation to pay for any of
the foregoing
costs if the applicable Mortgagor has an obligation to pay for
such costs.
The Seller hereby agrees that it will pay for any expense
incurred
by the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special
Servicer, as
applicable, in connection with modifying a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 2.3
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in order for such
Mortgage Loan to be a
"qualified substitute mortgage loan" within the meaning of the
Treasury
Regulations promulgated under the Code. Upon a breach of the
representation and
warranty set forth in paragraph 37 of Exhibit 2 attached hereto,
if such
Mortgage Loan is modified so that it becomes a "qualified
substitute mortgage
loan", such breach will be cured and the Seller will not be
obligated to
repurchase or otherwise remedy such breach.
(c) The Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that
the
Trustee (or the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable
Special Servicer on
its behalf) shall give written notice within three Business Days
to the Seller
of its discovery of any Material Document Defect or Material
Breach and prompt
written notice to the Seller in the event that any Mortgage Loan
becomes a
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (as defined in the Pooling and
Servicing
Agreement).
(d) If the Seller repurchases any Mortgage Loan pursuant to
this
Section 5, the Purchaser or its assignee, following receipt by
the Trustee of
the Purchase Price therefor, promptly shall deliver or cause to
be delivered to
the Seller all Mortgage Loan documents with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, and
each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File that
was endorsed or
assigned to the Trustee shall be endorsed and assigned to the
Seller in the same
manner such that the Seller shall be vested with legal and
beneficial title to
such Mortgage Loan, in each case without recourse, including any
property
acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loan or proceeds of any
insurance policies
with respect thereto.
Section 6. Closing. The closing of the sale of the Mortgage
