EXHIBIT 99.3
EXECUTION VERSION
MORTGAGE LOAN PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2005
(this "Agreement"), is entered into between KeyBank National
Association (the
"Seller") and Merrill Lynch Mortgage Investors, Inc. (the
"Purchaser").
The Seller intends to sell and the Purchaser intends to purchase
certain multifamily, commercial and manufactured housing community
mortgage
loans (the "Mortgage Loans") identified on the schedule (the
"Mortgage Loan
Schedule") annexed hereto as Schedule II. The Purchaser intends to
deposit the
Mortgage Loans, along with certain other mortgage loans (the "Other
Mortgage
Loans"), into a trust fund (the "Trust Fund"), the beneficial
ownership of which
will be evidenced by multiple classes of mortgage pass-through
certificates (the
"Certificates"). One or more "real estate mortgage investment
conduit" ("REMIC")
elections will be made with respect to most of the Trust Fund. The
Trust Fund
will be created and the Certificates will be issued pursuant to a
Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2005 (the "Pooling and
Servicing
Agreement"), among the Purchaser as depositor, KeyCorp Real Estate
Capital
Markets, Inc. as master servicer (in such capacity, the "Master
Servicer"), J.E.
Robert Company, Inc. as special servicer (in such capacity, the
"Special
Servicer"), LaSalle Bank National Association as trustee (the
"Trustee") and ABN
AMRO Bank N.V. as fiscal agent. Capitalized terms used but not
defined herein
(including the schedules attached hereto) have the respective
meanings set forth
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Purchaser has entered into an Underwriting Agreement, dated as
of
December 1, 2005 (the "Underwriting Agreement"), with Merrill
Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch"), for itself and
as representative
of Countrywide Securities Corporation ("Countrywide Securities"),
IXIS
Securities North America Inc. ("IXIS Securities"), KeyBanc Capital
Markets, a
Division of McDonald Investments Inc. ("McDonald Investments"),
Morgan Stanley &
Co. Incorporated ("Morgan Stanley") and Goldman, Sachs & Co.
("Goldman Sachs";
Merrill Lynch, Countrywide Securities, IXIS Securities, McDonald
Investments,
Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, collectively, in such capacity,
the
"Underwriters"), whereby the Purchaser will sell to the
Underwriters all of the
Certificates that are to be registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as
amended (such Certificates, the "Publicly-Offered Certificates").
The Purchaser
has also entered into a Certificate Purchase Agreement, dated as of
December 1,
2005 (the "Certificate Purchase Agreement"), with Merrill Lynch,
for itself and
as representative of Countrywide Securities (together in such
capacity, the
"Initial Purchasers"), whereby the Purchaser will sell to the
Initial Purchasers
all of the remaining Certificates (such Certificates, the "Private
Certificates").
Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Agreement to Purchase.
The Seller agrees to sell, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase,
the
Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The
Mortgage Loan
Schedule may be amended to reflect the actual Mortgage Loans
delivered to the
Purchaser pursuant to the terms
hereof. The Mortgage Loans are expected to have an aggregate
principal balance
of $221,247,029 (the "KeyBank Mortgage Loan Balance") (subject to a
variance of
plus or minus 5.0%) 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 such
payments are received. The KeyBank Mortgage Loan Balance, together
with the
aggregate principal balance of the Other Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date
(after giving effect to any payments due on or before such date,
whether or not
such payments are received), is expected to equal an aggregate
principal balance
(the "Cut-off Date Pool Balance") of $3,073,749,461 (subject to a
variance of
plus or minus 5%). The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans
shall take place
on December 7, 2005 or such other date as shall be mutually
acceptable to the
parties to this Agreement (the "Closing Date"). The consideration
(the "Purchase
Consideration") for the Mortgage Loans shall be equal to (i)
97.90792% of the
KeyBank Mortgage Loan Balance as of the Cut-off Date, plus (ii)
$191,377, which
amount represents the amount of interest accrued on the KeyBank
Mortgage Loan
Balance, as agreed to by the Seller and the Purchaser.
The Purchase Consideration shall be paid to the Seller or its
designee
by wire transfer in immediately available funds on the Closing
Date.
SECTION 2. Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
(a) Effective as of the Closing Date, subject only to the Seller's
receipt of the Purchase Consideration and the satisfaction or
waiver of the
conditions to closing set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement
(which conditions
shall be deemed to have been satisfied or waived upon the Seller's
receipt of
the Purchase Consideration), the Seller does hereby sell, transfer,
assign, set
over and otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse
(except as set
forth in this Agreement), all the right, title and interest of the
Seller in and
to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as
of such date,
on a servicing released basis, together with all of the Seller's
right, title
and interest in and to the proceeds of any related title, hazard,
primary
mortgage or other insurance proceeds. The Mortgage Loan Schedule,
as it may be
amended, shall conform to the requirements set forth in this
Agreement and the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(b) The Purchaser or its assignee shall be entitled to receive all
scheduled payments of principal and interest due after the Cut-off
Date, and all
other recoveries of principal and interest collected after the
Cut-off Date
(other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage
Loans due on or
before the Cut-off Date). All scheduled payments of principal and
interest due
on or before the Cut-off Date but collected after the Cut-off Date,
and
recoveries of principal and interest collected on or before the
Cut-off Date
(only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans
due on or
before the Cut-off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall
belong to, and
be promptly remitted to, the Seller.
(c) The Seller hereby represents and warrants that it has or will
have, on behalf of the Purchaser, delivered to the Trustee (i) on
or before the
Closing Date, the documents and instruments specified below with
respect to each
Mortgage Loan that are Specially Designated Mortgage Loan Documents
and (ii) on
or before the date that is 30 days after the Closing Date, the
remaining
documents and instruments specified below that are not Specially
Designated
Mortgage Loan Documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (the
documents and
2
instruments specified below and referred to in clauses (i) and (ii)
preceding,
collectively, a "Mortgage File"). All Mortgage Files so delivered
will be held
by the Trustee in escrow for the benefit of the Seller at all times
prior to the
Closing Date. The Mortgage File with respect to each Mortgage Loan
that is a
Trust Mortgage Loan shall contain the following documents:

The foregoing Mortgage File delivery requirement shall be subject
to
Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
4
(d) The Seller shall retain an Independent third party (the
"Recording/Filing Agent") that shall, as to each Mortgage Loan,
promptly (and in
any event within 90 days following the later of the Closing Date
and the
delivery of each Mortgage, Assignment of Leases, recordable
document and UCC
Financing Statement to the Trustee) cause to be submitted for
recording or
filing, as the case may be, in the appropriate public office for
real property
records or UCC Financing Statements, each assignment of Mortgage,
assignment of
Assignment of Leases and any other recordable documents relating to
each such
Mortgage Loan in favor of the Trustee that is referred to in clause
(iv) of the
definition of "Mortgage File" and each UCC Financing Statement
assignment in
favor of the Trustee that is referred to in clause (viii) of the
definition of
"Mortgage File." Each such assignment and UCC Financing Statement
assignment
shall reflect that the recorded original should be returned by the
public
recording office to the Trustee following recording, and each such
assignment
and UCC Financing Statement assignment shall reflect that the file
copy thereof
should be returned to the Trustee following filing; provided, that
in those
instances where the public recording office retains the original
assignment of
Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the
Recording/Filing Agent shall
obtain therefrom a certified copy of the recorded original. If any
such document
or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the
case may be,
because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall prepare a
substitute therefor
or cure such defect or cause such to be done, as the case may be,
and the Seller
shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument
to the Trustee
(or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling
and Servicing
Agreement, to the then holder of such Mortgage Loan).
The Seller shall bear the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of all
such
recording, filing and delivery contemplated in the preceding
paragraph,
including, without limitation, any costs and expenses that may be
incurred by
the Trustee in connection with any such recording, filing or
delivery performed
by the Trustee at the Seller's request and the fees of the
Recording/Filing
Agent.
(e) All such other relevant documents and records that (a) relate
to
the administration or servicing of the Mortgage Loans, (b) are
reasonably
necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of such
Mortgage Loans
by the Master Servicer in connection with its duties under the
Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, and (c) are in the possession or under the
control of the
Seller, together with all unapplied escrow amounts and reserve
amounts in the
possession or under the control of the Seller that relate to the
Mortgage Loans,
shall be delivered or caused to be delivered by the Seller to the
Master
Servicer (or, at the direction of the Master Servicer, to the
appropriate
sub-servicer); provided that the Seller shall not be required to
deliver any
draft documents, privileged or other communications, credit
underwriting or due
diligence analyses, credit committee briefs or memoranda or other
internal
approval documents or data or internal worksheets, memoranda,
communications or
evaluations.
The Seller agrees to use reasonable efforts to deliver to the
Trustee,
for its administrative convenience in reviewing the Mortgage Files,
a mortgage
loan checklist for each Mortgage Loan. The foregoing sentence
notwithstanding,
the failure of the Seller to deliver a mortgage loan checklist or a
complete
mortgage loan checklist shall not give rise to any liability
whatsoever on the
part of the Seller to the Purchaser, the Trustee or any other
person because the
delivery of the mortgage loan checklist is being provided to the
Trustee solely
for its administrative convenience.
5
(f) The Seller shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary
to
assign or otherwise grant to the Trust Fund the benefit of any
letters of credit
in the name of the Seller, which secure any Mortgage Loan.
(g) On or before the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide to the
Master Servicer, the initial data (as of the Cut-off Date or the
most recent
earlier date for which such data is available) contemplated by the
CMSA Loan
Setup File, the CMSA Loan Periodic Update File, the CMSA Operating
Statement
Analysis Report and the CMSA Property File.
SECTION 3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Seller.
(a) The Seller hereby represents and warrants to and covenants with
the Purchaser, as of the date hereof, that:
(i) The Seller is a national banking association duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the United
States
and the Seller has taken all necessary corporate action to
authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and
has the
power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement
and all
transactions contemplated hereby.
(ii) This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed
and
delivered by the Seller, all requisite action by the Seller's
directors and
officers has been taken in connection therewith, 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 against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except
as such
enforcement may be limited by (A) laws relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency,
fraudulent transfer, reorganization, receivership or moratorium,
(B) other
laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or
(C)
general equity principles (regardless of whether such enforcement
is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(iii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller
and
the Seller's performance and compliance with the terms of this
Agreement
will not (A) violate the Seller's articles of association or
bylaws, (B)
violate any law or regulation or any administrative decree or order
to
which it is subject or (C) constitute a default (or an event which,
with
notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default)
under, or
result in the breach of, any material contract, agreement or other
instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which the Seller is
bound,
which default might have consequences that would, in the Seller's
reasonable and good faith judgment, materially and adversely affect
the
condition (financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its
properties or materially and adversely affect its performance
hereunder.
(iv) The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or
decree
of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal,
state,
municipal or other governmental agency or body, which default might
have
consequences that would, in the Seller's reasonable and good faith
judgment, materially and adversely affect the condition
6
(financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its properties
or
materially and adversely affect its performance hereunder.
(v) The Seller is not a party to or bound by any agreement or
instrument or subject to any articles of association, bylaws or any
other
corporate restriction or any judgment, order, writ, injunction,
decree, law
or regulation that would, in the Seller's reasonable and good faith
judgment, materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller
to
perform its obligations under this Agreement or that requires the
consent
of any third person to the execution of this Agreement or the
performance
by the Seller of its obligations under this Agreement (except to
the extent
such consent has been obtained).
(vi) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or
governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery
and
performance by the Seller of or compliance by the Seller with this
Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this
Agreement except as have previously been obtained, and no bulk sale
law
applies to such transactions.
(vii) None of the sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller, the
transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, and the execution,
delivery
or performance of this Agreement by the Seller, results or will
result in
the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller's
assets or
property that would have a material adverse effect upon the
Seller's
ability to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement
or
materially impair the ability of the Purchaser to realize on the
Mortgage
Loans.
(viii) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
pending
or to the knowledge of the Seller, threatened against the Seller in
any
court or by or before any other governmental agency or
instrumentality
which would, in the Seller's good faith and reasonable judgment,
prohibit
its entering into this Agreement or materially and adversely affect
the
validity of this Agreement or the performance by the Seller of its
obligations under this Agreement.
(ix) Under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and
for
federal income tax purposes, the Seller will report the transfer of
the
Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser as a sale of the Mortgage Loans to
the
Purchaser in exchange for consideration consisting of a cash amount
equal
to the Purchase Consideration. The consideration received by the
Seller
upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser will
constitute at
least reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the
Mortgage
Loans. The Seller will be solvent at all relevant times prior to,
and will
not be rendered insolvent by, the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser. The Seller is not selling the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser
with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the creditors of
the
Seller.
(b) The Seller hereby makes the representations and warranties
contained in Schedule I hereto for the benefit of the Purchaser and
the Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders as of the Closing Date
(unless a
different date is specified therein), with respect to (and solely
with respect
to) each Mortgage Loan, subject, however, to the exceptions set
forth on Annex A
to Schedule I of this Agreement.
7
(c) If the Seller receives written notice of a Document Defect or a
Breach relating to a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of
the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, then the Seller shall, not later than 90
days from
receipt of such notice (or, in the case of a Document Defect or
Breach relating
to a Mortgage Loan not being a "qualified mortgage" within the
meaning of the
REMIC Provisions (a "Qualified Mortgage"), not later than 90 days
from any party
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement discovering such Document
Defect or
Breach, provided the Seller receives such notice in a timely
manner), if such
Document Defect or Breach materially and adversely affects the
value of the
related Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders
therein, cure
such Document Defect or Breach, as the case may be, in all material
respects,
which shall include payment of losses and any Additional Trust Fund
Expenses
associated therewith or, if such Document Defect or Breach (other
than omissions
due solely to a document not having been returned by the related
recording
office) cannot be cured within such 90-day period, (i) repurchase
the affected
Mortgage Loan (which, for the purposes of this clause (i), shall
include an REO
Loan) at the applicable Purchase Price (as defined in the Pooling
and Servicing
Agreement) not later than the end of such 90-day period or (ii)
substitute a
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan
(which, for
purposes of this clause (ii), shall include an REO Loan) not later
than the end
of such 90-day period (and in no event later than the second
anniversary of the
Closing Date) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the
Collection
Account any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith;
provided,
however, that, unless the Document Defect or Breach would cause the
Mortgage
Loan not to be a Qualified Mortgage, if such Document Defect or
Breach is
capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period and the
Seller has
commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such
Document Defect or
Breach within such 90-day period, the Seller shall have an
additional 90 days to
complete such cure (or, failing such cure, to repurchase or
substitute the
related Mortgage Loan (which, for purposes of such repurchase or
substitution,
shall include an REO Loan)); and provided, further, that with
respect to such
additional 90-day period, the Seller shall have delivered an
officer's
certificate to the Trustee setting forth the reason(s) such
Document Defect or
Breach is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day
period and what
actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof
and stating
that the Seller anticipates that such Document Defect or Breach
will be cured
within the additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that no
Document
Defect (other than with respect to the Specially Designated
Mortgage Loan
Documents) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect
the interests
of the Certificateholders or the value of the related Mortgage Loan
unless the
document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is
required in
connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee's rights
or remedies
under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by
any borrower or
third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the
validity or
priority of any lien or any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan
or for any
immediate servicing obligations.
A Document Defect or Breach (which Document Defect or Breach
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage
Loan or the
interests of the Certificateholders therein) as to a Mortgage Loan
that is
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with one or more other
Mortgage Loans
(each, a "Crossed Loan" and such Crossed Loans, collectively, a
"Crossed Loan
Group"), which Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a
Document Defect
or Breach, as the case may be, as to any other Crossed Loan in such
Crossed Loan
Group (without regard to this paragraph) and is not cured as
provided for above,
shall be deemed to constitute a Document Defect or Breach, as the
case may be,
as to each other Crossed Loan in the subject
8
Crossed Loan Group for purposes of this paragraph and the Seller
shall be
required to repurchase or substitute all such Crossed Loans unless
(1) the
weighted average debt service coverage ratio for all the remaining
Crossed Loans
for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding such
repurchase or
substitution is not less than the greater of (A) the weighted
average debt
service coverage ratio for all such Crossed Loans, including the
affected
Crossed Loan, for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding
such
repurchase or substitution and (B) the weighted average debt
service coverage
ratio for all such Crossed Loans, including the affected Crossed
Loan, as of the
Cut-off Date, and (2) the weighted average loan to-value ratio for
the remaining
Crossed Loans, determined at the time of repurchase or
substitution, based upon
an appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer at the expense of the
Seller shall
not be greater than the lesser of (A) the weighted average
loan-to-value ratio
for all such Crossed Loans, including the affected Crossed Loan
determined at
the time of repurchase or substitution, based upon an appraisal
obtained by the
Special Servicer at the expense of the Seller and (B) the weighted
average
loan-to-value ratio for all such Crossed Loans, including the
affected Crossed
Loan, as of the Cut-off Date; provided, that if such debt service
coverage and
loan-to-value criteria are satisfied, any other Crossed Loan (that
is not the
Crossed Loan directly affected by the subject Document Defect or
Breach), shall
be released from its cross-collateralization and cross-default
provision so long
as such Crossed Loan (that is not the Crossed Loan directly
affected by the
subject Document Defect or Breach) is held in the Trust Fund; and
provided,
further, that the repurchase or replacement of less than all such
Crossed Loans
and the release of any Crossed Loan from a cross-collateralization
and
cross-default provision shall be further subject to the delivery by
the Seller
to the Trustee, at the expense of the Seller, of an Opinion of
Counsel to the
effect that such release would not cause either of REMIC I or REMIC
II to fail
to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or result in the imposition of
any tax on
"prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after the Startup Day
under the
REMIC Provisions. In the event that one or more of such other
Crossed Loans
satisfy the aforementioned criteria, the Seller may elect either to
repurchase
or substitute for only the affected Crossed Loan as to which the
related
Document Defect or Breach exists or to repurchase or substitute for
all of the
Crossed Loans in the related Crossed Loan Group. All documentation
relating to
the termination of the cross-collateralization provisions of a
Crossed Loan
being repurchased shall be prepared at the expense of the Seller
and, where
required, with the consent of the related borrower. For a period of
two years
from the Closing Date, so long as there remains any Mortgage File
relating to a
Mortgage Loan as to which there is any uncured Document Defect or
Breach known
to the Seller, the Seller shall provide, once every ninety days,
the officer's
certificate to the Trustee described above as to the reason(s) such
Document
Defect or Breach remains uncured and as to the actions being taken
to pursue
cure; provided, however, that, without limiting the effect of the
foregoing
provisions of this Section 3(c), if such Document Defect or Breach
shall
materially and adversely affect the value of such Mortgage Loan or
the interests
of the holders of the Certificates therein (subject to the last
proviso in the
sole sentence of the preceding paragraph), the Seller shall in all
cases on or
prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date either cause
such Document
Defect or Breach to be cured or repurchase or substitute for the
affected
Mortgage Loan.
To the extent that the Seller is required to repurchase or
substitute
for a Crossed Loan hereunder in the manner prescribed above in this
Section 3(c)
while the Trustee continues to hold any other Crossed Loans in such
Crossed Loan
Group, the Seller and the Purchaser shall not enforce any remedies
against the
other's Primary Collateral (as defined below), but each is
permitted to exercise
remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective
Crossed
9
Loan(s), so long as such exercise does not materially impair the
ability of the
other party to exercise its remedies against the Primary Collateral
securing the
Crossed Loan(s) held thereby.
If the exercise by one party would materially impair the ability of
the other party to exercise its remedies with respect to the
Primary Collateral
securing the Crossed Loan(s) held by such party, then the Seller
and the
Purchaser shall forbear from exercising such remedies until the
Mortgage Loan
documents evidencing and securing the relevant Crossed Loans can be
modified in
a manner consistent with this Agreement to remove the threat of
material
impairment as a result of the exercise of remedies. Any reserve or
other cash
collateral or letters of credit securing the Crossed Loans shall be
allocated
between such Crossed Loans in accordance with the Mortgage Loan
documents, or,
if the related Mortgage Loan documents do not so provide, then on a
pro rata
basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if a Crossed Loan is modified to terminate the
related
cross-collateralization and/or cross-default provisions, the Seller
shall
furnish to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel that such modification
shall not
cause an Adverse REMIC Event.
For purposes hereof, "Primary Collateral" shall mean the Mortgaged
Property directly securing a Crossed Loan and excluding any
property as to which
the related lien may only be foreclosed upon by exercise of
cross-collateralization provisions of such Mortgage Loans.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section
3(c),
if there is a Document Defect or Breach (which Document Defect or
Breach
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage
Loan or the
interests of the Certificateholders therein) with respect to one or
more
Mortgaged Properties with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the Seller
shall not be
obligated to repurchase or substitute the Mortgage Loan if (i) the
affected
Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of
any partial
release provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (and such
Mortgaged
Property(ies) are, in fact, released) and to the extent not covered
by the
applicable release price (if any) required under the related
Mortgage Loan
documents, the Seller pays (or causes to be paid) any additional
amounts
necessary to cover all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably
incurred by
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust
Fund in
connection with such release, (ii) the remaining Mortgaged
Property(ies) satisfy
the requirements, if any, set forth in the Mortgage Loan documents
and the
Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such
release would not
cause either of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC
under the Code
or result in the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions"
or
"contributions" after the Startup Day under the REMIC Provisions
and (iii) each
Rating Agency then rating the Certificates shall have provided
written
confirmation that such release would not cause the then-current
ratings of the
Certificates rated by it to be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 3(c) notwithstanding, the
Purchaser's sole remedy (subject to the last sentence of this
paragraph) for a
breach of representation 30 set forth on Schedule I hereto shall be
the cure of
such breach by the Seller, which cure shall be effected through the
payment by
the Seller of such costs and expenses (without regard to whether
such costs and
expenses are material or not) specified in such representation that
have not, at
the time of such cure, been received by the Master Servicer or the
Special
Servicer from the related Mortgagor and not a repurchase or
substitution of the
related Mortgage Loan. Following the
10
Seller's remittance of funds in payment of such costs and expenses,
the Seller
shall be deemed to have cured the breach of representation 30 in
all respects.
To the extent any fees or expenses that are the subject of a cure
by the Seller
are subsequently obtained from the related Mortgagor, the cure
payment made by
the Seller shall be returned to the Seller. Notwithstanding the
prior provisions
of this paragraph, the Seller, acting in its sole discretion, may
effect a
repurchase or substitution (in accordance with the provisions of
this Section
3(c) setting forth the manner in which a Mortgage Loan may be
repurchased or
substituted) of a Mortgage Loan, as to which representation 30 set
forth on
Schedule I has been breached, in lieu of paying the costs and
expenses that were
the subject of the breach of representation 30 set forth on
Schedule I.
(d) In connection with any permitted repurchase or substitution of
one
or more Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby, upon receipt of a
certificate from a
Servicing Officer certifying as to the receipt of the applicable
Purchase Price
(as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) or Substitution
Shortfall
Amount(s), as applicable, in the Collection Account, and, if
applicable, the
delivery of the Mortgage File(s) and the Servicing File(s) for the
related
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) to the Custodian and the
Master Servicer,
respectively, (i) the Trustee shall be required to execute and
deliver such
endorsements and assignments as are provided to it by the Master
Servicer or the
Seller, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty,
as shall be
necessary to vest in the Seller the legal and beneficial ownership
of each
repurchased Mortgage Loan or substituted Mortgage Loan, as
applicable, (ii) the
Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer shall each
tender to the Seller, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt
executed by the
Seller, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents
pertaining to such
Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and (iii) the Master Servicer and
the Special
Servicer shall release to the Seller any Escrow Payments and
Reserve Funds held
by it in respect of such repurchased or deleted Mortgage Loan(s).
At the time a substitution is made, the Seller shall deliver the
related Mortgage File to the Trustee and certify that the
substitute Mortgage
Loan is a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan.
No substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans may be made in any calendar month after
the
Determination Date for such month. Periodic Payments due with
respect to any
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan after the related date of
substitution shall
be part of REMIC I, as applicable. No substitution of a Qualified
Substitute
Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan shall be permitted under
this
Agreement if, after such substitution, the aggregate of the Stated
Principal
Balances of all Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans which have been
substituted
for deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds 10% of the aggregate Cut-off
Date Balance of
all the Mortgage Loans and the Other Mortgage Loans. Periodic
Payments due with
respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan on or prior to
the related
date of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund or REMIC
I.
(e) This Section 3 provides the sole remedies available to the
Purchaser, the Certificateholders, or the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders, respecting any Document Defect in a Mortgage
File or any
Breach of any representation or warranty set forth in or required
to be made
pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement.
11

constitutes the valid, legal and binding agreement of the
Purchaser, enforceable
against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such

may be limited by (A) laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent
transfer, reorganization, receivership or moratorium, (B) other
laws relating to
or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (C) general
equity principles
(regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a
proceeding in equity
or at law).

and
the Purchaser's performance and compliance with the terms of this
Agreement will
not (A) violate the Purchaser's articles of incorporation or
bylaws, (B) violate
any law or regulation or any administrative decree or order to
which it is
subject or (C) constitute a default (or an event which, with notice
or lapse of
time, or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the
breach of,
any material contract, agreement or other instrument to which the
Purchaser is a
party or by which the Purchaser is bound, which default might have
consequences
that would, in the Purchaser's reasonable and good faith judgment,
materially
and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or
operations of the
Purchaser or its properties or have consequences that would
materially and
adversely affect its performance hereunder.
(d) The Purchaser is not a party to or bound by any agreement or
instrument or subject to any articles of association, bylaws or any
other
corporate restriction or any judgment, order, writ, injunction,
decree, law or
regulation that would, in the Purchaser's reasonable and good faith
judgment,
materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to
perform its
obligations under this Agreement or that requires the consent of
any third
person to the execution of this Agreement or the performance by the
Purchaser of
its obligations under this Agreement (except to the extent such
consent has been
obtained).
(e) Except as may be required under federal or state securities
laws
(and which will be obtained on a timely basis), no consent,

state law, for
the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of, or
compliance by
the Purchaser with, this Agreement, or the consummation by the
Purchaser of any
transaction described in this Agreement.
12
(f) Under GAAP and for federal income tax purposes, the Purchaser

Consideration.
(g) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending
or
to the knowledge of the Purchaser, threatened against the Purchaser
in any court
or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality
which would
materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement or
any action
taken in connection with the obligations of the Purchaser
contemplated herein,
or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the
Purchaser to
enter into and/or perform under the terms of this Agreement.
(h) The Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order or
decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any
federal, state,
municipal or other governmental agency or body, which default might
have
consequences that would, in the Purchaser's reasonable and good
faith judgment,
materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other)
or operations
of the Purchaser or its properties or might have consequences that
would
materially and adversely affect its performance hereunder.

SECTION 7. Costs. Whether or not this Agreement is terminated, both

expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated
herein as set
forth in the closing statement
15
prepared by the Purchaser and delivered to and approved by the
Seller on or
before the Closing Date, and in the memorandum of understanding to
which the
Seller and the Purchaser (or an affiliate thereof) are parties with
respect to
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
SECTION 8. Grant of a Security Interest. It is the express intent
of
the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the
Seller to
the Purchaser as provided in Section 2 of this Agreement be, and be
construed
as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser and
not as a
pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to
secure a debt or
other obligation of the Seller. However, if, notwithstanding the
aforementioned
intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be property
of the Seller,
then, (a) it is the express intent of the parties that such
conveyance be deemed
a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to
secure a debt
or other obligation of the Seller, and (b) (i) this Agreement shall
also be
deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Article 9
of the UCC of
the applicable jurisdiction; (ii) the conveyance provided for in
Section 2 of
this Agreement 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
in and to the
Mortgage Loans, and all amounts payable to the holder of the
Mortgage Loans in
accordance with the terms thereof, and all proceeds of the
conversion, voluntary
or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities
or other
property, including without limitation, all amounts, other than
investment
earnings (other than investment earnings required by Section
3.19(a) of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement to offset Prepayment Interest
Shortfalls), from
time to time held or invested in the Collection Account, the
Distribution
Account or, if established, the REO Account whether in the form of
cash,
instruments, securities or other property; (iii) the assignment to
the Trustee
of the interest of the Purchaser as contemplated by Section 1 of
this Agreement
shall be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest
created hereunder;
(iv) the possession by the Trustee or any of its agents, including,
without
limitation, the Custodian, of the Mortgage Notes, and such other
items of
property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or
chattel paper
shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party for purposes
of perfecting
the security interest pursuant to Section 9-313 of the UCC of the
applicable
jurisdiction; and (v) notifications to persons (other than the
Trustee) holding
such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from
persons
(other than the Trustee) holding such property, shall be deemed
notifications
to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial
intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the secured
party for the
purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.
The Seller
and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this
Agreement, take such
actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to
create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans, 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 this
Agreement and the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Seller does hereby consent to
the filing by
the Purchaser of financing statements relating to the transactions
contemplated
hereby without the signature of the Seller.
SECTION 9. Notices. All notices, copies, requests, consents,
demands
and other communications required hereunder shall be in writing and
sent by
facsimile or delivered to the intended recipient at the "Address
for Notices"
specified beneath its name on the signature pages hereof or, as to
either party,
at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a
notice hereunder
to the other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
all such
communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when
transmitted by
facsimile or
16
personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon
receipt, in each
case given or addressed as aforesaid.
SECTION 10. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive
Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained
in this
Agreement, incorporated herein by reference or contained in the
certificates of
officers of the Seller submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain
operative and in
full force and effect and shall survive delivery of the Mortgage
Loans by the
Seller to the Purchaser (and by the Purchaser to the Trustee).
SECTION 11. Severability of Provisions. Any part, provision,
representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement that is
prohibited or
which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to
the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining
provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation, warranty or
covenant of
this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be
void or
unenforceable in any particular jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability
without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such
prohibition or
unenforceability in any particular jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the
extent permitted
by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law
that prohibits
or renders v
