In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, Seller
and Purchaser
hereby agree as follows:
1.
AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE.
1.1 Seller agrees to sell, and Purchaser agrees to purchase, on a
servicing
released basis, subject to certain agreements regarding servicing
as provided in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, sub-servicing agreements in
existence as of
the Closing Date and the servicing rights purchase agreement, 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 Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof. The Cut-Off
Date with
respect to the Mortgage Loans is February 1, 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 $394,318,700. The sale of the Mortgage Loans shall
take place on
February 28, 2007 or such other date as shall be mutually
acceptable to the
parties hereto (the "Closing Date"). The purchase price to be paid
by Purchaser
for the Mortgage Loans shall equal the amount set forth as such
purchase price
on Exhibit 3 hereto. The purchase price shall be paid to Seller by
wire transfer
in immediately available funds on the Closing Date.
1.2 On the Closing Date, Purchaser will assign to 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 14), and Trustee shall succeed to such right, title and
interest in
and to the Mortgage Loans and Purchaser's rights under this
Agreement (to the
extent set forth in Section 14).
2.
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS.
2.1 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, Seller does hereby
transfer,
assign, set over and otherwise convey to Purchaser, without
recourse, except as
specifically provided herein, all the right, title and interest of
Seller,
subject to certain agreements regarding servicing as provided in
the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, sub-servicing agreements in existence as of
the Closing
Date and the servicing rights purchase agreement, and with the
understanding
that a Servicing Rights Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated February
1, 2007,
will be executed by Seller and Master Servicer, in and to the
Mortgage Loans
identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as of the Closing Date.
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, Seller
shall deliver to or on behalf of Trustee, on behalf of Purchaser,
on or prior to
the Closing Date, the Mortgage Note (as described in clause 2.2.1
hereof) 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 5 in favor of Trustee, Master Servicer and Special
Servicer to
empower Trustee, Master Servicer and, in the event of the failure
or incapacity
of Trustee and Master Servicer, Special Servicer, to submit for
recording, at
the expense of 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 Trustee). Seller agrees to reasonably
3
cooperate with Trustee, Master Servicer and 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 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. Custodian
shall submit such documents for recording, at Seller's expense,
after the
periods set forth above, provided, however, Custodian shall not
submit such
assignments for recording if Seller produces evidence that it has
sent any such
assignment for recording and certifies that Seller is awaiting its
return from
the applicable recording office. In addition, not later than the
30th day
following the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to or on behalf of
Trustee each
of the remaining documents or instruments specified in Section 2.2
hereof (with
such exceptions and additional time periods as are permitted by
this Section 2)
with respect to each Mortgage Loan (each, a "Mortgage File").
(Seller
acknowledges that the term "without recourse" does not modify the
duties of
Seller under Section 5 hereof.)
2.2 All Mortgage Files, or portions thereof, delivered prior to the
Closing Date
are to be held by or on behalf of Trustee in escrow on behalf of
Seller at all
times prior to the Closing Date. The Mortgage Files shall be
released from
escrow upon closing of the sale of the Mortgage Loans and payments
of the
purchase price therefor as contemplated hereby. The Mortgage File

insurance
company or escrow company to be a true copy thereof; provided that
if such
original Mortgage cannot be delivered with evidence of recording

2.3 The Assignments of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of
Leases referred
to in Sections 2.2.4 and 2.2.6 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, Seller
shall execute, in
accordance with the third succeeding paragraph, the assignments of
mortgages,
assignment of the assignments of leases (to the extent separate
from the
mortgages) and the assignments of UCC financing statements relating
to the
Mortgage Loans naming 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 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 Seller to Purchaser and from Purchaser to Trustee
on behalf of
the Certificateholders.
2.4 If Seller cannot deliver, or cause to be delivered, as to any
Mortgage Loan,
any of the documents and/or instruments referred to in Sections
2.2.2, 2.2.3,
2.2.5 or 2.2.6, with evidence of recording thereon, solely 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 Seller
delivers a
photocopy thereof (certified by the appropriate county recorder's
office to be a
true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for
recording) or an
Officer's Certificate of the Seller stating that such document has
been sent to
the appropriate public recording office for recordation, to Trustee
within such
90 day period, Seller shall then deliver within 180 days after the
Closing Date
the recorded document (or within such longer period after the
Closing Date as
Trustee may consent to, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld so long
as Seller is, as certified in writing to Trustee no less often than
monthly, in
good faith attempting to obtain from the appropriate county
recorder's office
such original or photocopy).
2.5 Trustee, as assignee or transferee of 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
Seller.
2.6 Within 45 days following the Closing Date, Seller shall
deliver, and
Purchaser, Trustee or the agents of either may submit or cause to
be submitted
for recordation at the expense of Seller, in the appropriate public
office for
real property records, each assignment referred to in clauses
2.2.4, 2.2.6(ii)
and 2.2.9(B) above (with recording information in blank if such
information is
not yet available). If any such document or instrument is lost or
returned
unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect
therein, Seller
shall prepare a substitute therefor or cure such defect, and Seller
shall, at
its own expense (except in the case of a document or instrument
that is lost by
Trustee), record or file, as the case may be, and deliver such
document or
instrument in accordance with this Section 2.
8
2.7 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, Seller shall provide a notice on or prior to
the date that
is 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 Master Servicer
and, with
respect to each franchise agreement, provide a franchise comfort
letter on or
prior to the date that is 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 Master Servicer or the
applicable Primary
Servicer, Seller will draw on such letter of credit as directed by
Master
Servicer or such Primary Servicer in such notice to the extent
Seller has the
right to do so.
2.8 Documents that are in the possession of 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 to Trustee by Seller to or at
the direction
of Master Servicer, on behalf of Purchaser, on or prior to the 75th
day after
the Closing Date, in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Primary
Servicing
Agreement, if applicable.
2.9 The documents required to be delivered to Master Servicer (or
in the
alternative, Primary Servicer) shall include, to the extent
required to be (and
actually) delivered to 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
agreement and any Environmental Insurance Policies. Notwithstanding
the
foregoing, Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft
documents, or any
attorney-client communications that are privileged communications
or constitute
legal or other due diligence analyses, or internal communications
of Seller or
its affiliates, or credit underwriting or other analyses,
worksheets, memoranda,
communications, evaluations or data. Delivery of any of the
foregoing documents
to Primary Servicer shall be deemed a delivery to Master Servicer
and satisfy
Seller's obligations under this subparagraph. Each of the foregoing
items may be
delivered by Seller in electronic form, to the extent such document
is available
in such form and such form is reasonably acceptable to Master
Servicer.
2.10 Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans by Seller to 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 Purchaser and its
assigns, and
the ownership of all records and documents constituting the
Servicing File with
respect to the related Mortgage Loan prepared by or that come into
the
possession of Seller shall immediately vest in Purchaser and its
assigns, and
shall be delivered promptly by Seller to or on behalf of either
Trustee or
Master Servicer as set forth herein, subject to the requirements of
the Primary
Servicing Agreement. Seller's and
9
Purchaser's records shall reflect the transfer of each Mortgage
Loan from Seller
to Purchaser and its assigns as a sale.
2.11 It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the
conveyance of the
Mortgage Loans and related property to Purchaser by 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
Seller to Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of 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 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:
2.11.1 this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement;
and
2.11.2 the conveyance provided for in this Section 2 shall be
deemed to be
a grant by Seller to Purchaser of a security interest in all of
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.
2.12 The possession by 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 9-313 thereof) as in
force in the
relevant jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller makes
no
representation or warranty as to the perfection of any such
security interest.
10
2.13 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,
Purchaser or its designee, as applicable, for the purpose of
perfecting such
security interest under applicable law.
2.14 Seller shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement and
upon request
by or on behalf of Purchaser, 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, Seller
hereby authorizes Master Servicer to 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, 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.
2.15 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and
subject to
Section 2.1, Purchaser shall not be required to purchase any
Mortgage Loan as to
which any Mortgage Note or lost note affidavit and indemnity
(endorsed as
described in clause 2.2.1) required to be delivered to or on behalf
of Trustee
or 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
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
Purchaser's or its
successors' and assigns' rights in respect thereof pursuant to
Section 5.
3.
EXAMINATION OF MORTGAGE FILES AND DUE DILIGENCE REVIEW.
3.1 Seller shall (i) deliver to Purchaser on or before the Closing
Date a
diskette acceptable to Purchaser that contains such information
about the
Mortgage Loans as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser, (ii)
deliver to
Purchaser investor files (collectively the "Collateral
Information") with
respect to the assets proposed to be included in the Mortgage Pool
and made
available at Purchaser's headquarters in New York, and (iii)
otherwise cooperate
fully with 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 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 Purchaser or Trustee to cause 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 hereof.
3.2 On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall allow
representatives of any
of Purchaser, each Underwriter, each Initial Purchaser, Trustee,
Special
Servicer and each Rating Agency to examine and audit all books,
records and
files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans, Seller's underwriting
procedures and
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
11
offices of Seller during normal business hours and shall not be
conducted in a manner that is disruptive to Seller's normal
business operations
upon reasonable prior advance notice. In the course of such
examinations and
audits, Seller will make available to such representatives of any
of Purchaser,
each Underwriter, each Initial Purchaser, Trustee, 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 Seller
shall
cooperate fully with any such examination and audit in all material
respects. On
or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Purchaser with
all material
information regarding Seller's financial condition and access to
knowledgeable
financial or accounting officers for the purpose of answering
questions with
respect to Seller's financial condition, financial statements as
provided to
Purchaser or other developments affecting Seller's ability to
consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise affecting Seller in
any material
respect. Within 45 days after the Closing Date, Seller shall
provide Master
Servicer or Primary Servicer, if applicable, with any additional
information
identified by Master Servicer or Primary Servicer, if applicable,
as necessary
to complete the CMSA Property File, to the extent that such
information is
available.
3.3 Purchaser may exercise any of its rights hereunder through one
or more
designees or agents, provided Purchaser has provided Seller with
prior notice of
the identity of such designee or agent.
3.4 Purchaser shall keep confidential any information regarding
Seller and the
Mortgage Loans that has been delivered into 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
Purchaser is required by law or court order to disclose such
information. If
Purchaser is required to disclose in the Memorandum or the
Prospectus Supplement
confidential information regarding Seller as described in the
preceding
sentence, Purchaser shall provide to Seller a copy of the proposed
form of such
disclosure prior to making such disclosure and Seller shall
promptly, and in any
event within two Business Days, notify Purchaser of any
inaccuracies therein, in
which case Purchaser shall modify such form in a manner that
corrects such
inaccuracies. If Purchaser is required by law or court order to
disclose
confidential information regarding Seller as described in the
second preceding
sentence, Purchaser shall notify Seller and cooperate in 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, Purchaser is compelled as a
matter of law to
disclose such information, Purchaser shall, prior to making such
disclosure,
advise and consult with Seller and its counsel as to such
disclosure and the
nature and wording of such disclosure and Purchaser shall use
reasonable efforts
to obtain confidential treatment therefor. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if
reasonably advised by counsel that Purchaser is required by a
regulatory agency
or court order to make such disclosure immediately, then Purchaser
shall be
permitted to make such disclosure without prior review by Seller.
4.

and
warranties set forth on Exhibit 2 hereto, except as otherwise set

delivered by Seller, and assuming the due authorization, execution

and binding
agreement of Seller, enforceable in accordance with its terms,
except as such
enforcement may be limited by (A) laws relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency,
fraudulent transfer, reorganization, receivership, conservatorship
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.
4.1.3 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

as may be
required under state securities or blue sky laws, (B) the filing or

financing statements, instruments of assignment and other similar
documents
necessary in connection with Seller's sale of the Mortgage Loans to

filings or notices as have been obtained and (D) where the lack of
such consent,
approval, authorization, qualification, registration, filing or
notice would not
have a material adverse effect on the performance by Seller under
this
Agreement.
4.1.4 Neither the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to Purchaser, nor
the
execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by 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

of organization or by-laws, (B) any term or provision of any
material agreement,
contract, instrument or indenture to which Seller is a party or by

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 4.1.3, any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment,
writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority
having
13
jurisdiction over 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 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
Seller, or in
any material impairment of the right or ability of Seller to carry
on its
business substantially as now conducted.
4.1.5 There are no actions or proceedings against, or
investigations of,
Seller pending or, to Seller's knowledge, threatened in writing
against 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 Purchaser or the execution or delivery by, or
enforceability against, Seller of this Agreement or have an effect
on the
financial condition of Seller that would materially and adversely
affect the
ability of Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
4.1.6 On the Closing Date, the sale of the Mortgage Loans pursuant
to this
Agreement will effect a transfer by Seller of all of its right,
title and
interest in and to the Mortgage Loans to Purchaser.
4.1.7 To Seller's knowledge, the LaSalle Mortgage Loan Information
(as
defined in that certain indemnification agreement, dated February
15, 2007,
between Seller, Purchaser, the Underwriters and the Initial
Purchaser (the
"Indemnification Agreement")) relating to the Mortgage Loans does
not contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading (when read together with
the Final
Prospectus Supplement, in the case of Public Certificates, or when
read together
with the Memorandum, in the case of the Private Certificates).
Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, this subparagraph 4.1.7
shall run
exclusively to the benefit of Purchaser and no other party.
To induce Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, Seller hereby
covenants that
the foregoing representations and warranties and those set forth on
Exhibit 2
hereto, subject to the exceptions set forth in Schedule A to
Exhibit 2, 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.
4.1.8 Seller has complied with the disclosure requirements of
Regulation AB
that arise from its role as "seller" and "sponsor" in connection
with the
issuance of the Certificates.
4.1.9 For so long as the Trust is subject to the reporting
requirements of
the Exchange Act, Seller shall provide Purchaser (or with respect
to any
Serviced Companion Mortgage Loan that is deposited into an Other
Securitization,
the depositor in such Other Securitization) and the Paying Agent
with any
Additional Form 10-D Disclosure and any Additional Form 10-K
Disclosure set
forth next to Seller's name on Schedule XV and Schedule XVI of the
Pooling and
Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the
Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
14
Each of the representations, warranties and covenants made by
Seller pursuant to
this Section 4.1 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.
4.2 To induce Seller to enter into this Agreement, Purchaser hereby
represents
and warrants to Seller as of the date hereof:
4.2.1 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.
4.2.2 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. 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 Seller, constitutes
the valid and
binding obligation of 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.
4.2.3 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 Purchaser with this Agreement, or the consummation by
Purchaser of
any transaction contemplated hereby that has not been obtained or
made by
Purchaser.
4.2.4 Neither the purchase of the Mortgage Loans nor the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement by Purchaser will
violate 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 Purchaser is a party or that may be applicable
to Purchaser
or its assets.
4.2.5 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 Purchaser or its assets, which violation could
materially and
adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or the
operation of
Purchaser or its assets or could materially and adversely affect
its ability to
perform its obligations and duties hereunder.
4.2.6 There are no actions or proceedings against, or
investigations of,
Purchaser pending or, to Purchaser's knowledge, threatened against
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
15
condition of Purchaser that would materially and adversely affect
the ability of
Purchaser to perform its obligation under this Agreement.
4.2.7 Purchaser has not dealt with any broker, investment banker,
agent or
other person, other than Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial
Purchasers 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 Seller to enter into this Agreement, 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 Purchaser
pursuant to this
Section 4.2 shall survive the purchase of the Mortgage Loans.
5.
REMEDIES UPON BREACH OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES MADE BY
SELLER.
5.1 It is hereby acknowledged that Seller shall make for the
benefit of Trustee
on behalf of the holders of the Certificates, whether directly or
by way of
Purchaser's assignment of its rights hereunder to Trustee, the
representations
and warranties set forth on Exhibit 2 hereto (each as of the date
hereof unless
otherwise specified).
5.2 It is hereby further acknowledged that if any document required
to be
delivered to 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 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
parties; provided that any breach of the representation and
warranty contained
in paragraph 42 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, Master Servicer shall, and Special Servicer may, request
that Seller,
not later than 90 days from 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
16
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 Seller is diligently attempting to effect such
correction or
cure, as certified by Seller in an Officer's Certificate delivered
to 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, then 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 Seller by
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 Seller pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Pooling and
Servicing
Agreement or otherwise nor possession of such certification or
schedule by
Seller shall, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of
any Material
Document Defect or knowledge or awareness by Seller of any Material
Document
Defect listed therein.
5.3 Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, if any such Material
Document
Defect or Material Breach cannot be corrected or cured in all
material respects
within the above cure periods, Seller shall, on or before the
termination of
such cure periods, either (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan
or REO
Mortgage Loan from Purchaser or its assignee at the Purchase Price
as defined in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or (ii) if within the
three-month period
commencing on the Closing Date (or within the two-year period
commencing on the
Closing Date if the related Mortgage Loan is a "defective
obligation" within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(4)(B)(ii) of the Code and Treasury
Regulation Section
1.860G-2(f)), 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 or the previous
paragraph, repurchase
or substitution must occur within 90 days from the date Seller was
notified of
the breach or defect. Seller agrees that any substitution shall be
completed in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
5.4 If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as
contemplated
above (a "Defective Mortgage Loan"), (y) such Defective Mortgage
Loan is
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with one or more other
Mortgage Loans
("Crossed Mortgage Loans") and (z) the applicable document defect
or breach does
not constitute a Material Document Defect or Material Breach, as
the case may
be, as to such Crossed Mortgage Loans (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 Crossed Mortgage Loan for purposes of the above
provisions, and
Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such
Crossed Mortgage
Loan in accordance with the provisions above, unless, in the case
of such breach
or document defect, (A) Seller provides a Nondisqualification
Opinion to Trustee
at the expense of Seller if Trustee acting at the direction of the
Controlling
Class determines that it would be usual and customary in accordance
with
industry practice to obtain a Nondisqualification Opinion and (B)
both of the
following conditions would be satisfied if Seller were to
repurchase or replace
only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Breach or Material
Document
Defect had occurred without regard to this
17
paragraph (the "Affected Loan(s)"): (i) the debt service coverage
ratio for all
such other Mortgage Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the
four calendar
quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not
less than
the greater of (A) the debt service coverage ratio for all such
Crossed Mortgage
Loans (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth under the heading
"NCF DSCR" in
Appendix II to the Final Prospectus Supplement and (B) 1.25x, and
(ii) the
loan-to-value ratio for all such Crossed Mortgage Loans (excluding
the Affected
Loan(s)) is not greater than the lesser of (A) the current
loan-to-value ratio
for all such Mortgage Loans (including the Affected Loan(s)) set
forth under the
heading "Cut-Off Date LTV" in Appendix II to the Final Prospectus
Supplement and
(B) 75%. The determination of Master Servicer as to whether the
conditions set
forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in
the absence
of manifest error. Master Servicer will be entitled to cause to be
delivered, or
direct Seller to (in which case Seller shall) cause to be delivered
to Master
Servicer: (A) an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged
Properties for
purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause
(ii) above has
been satisfied, in each case at the expense of Seller if the scope
and cost of
the Appraisal is approved by Seller (such approval not to be
unreasonably
withheld) and (B) an opinion of counsel that not requiring the
repurchase of
each such Crossed Mortgage Loan will not result in an Adverse REMIC
Event.
5.5 With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan, to the extent that
Seller is
required to repurchase or substitute for such Defective Mortgage
Loan (each, a
"Repurchased Loan") in the manner prescribed above while Trustee
(as assignee of
Purchaser) continues to hold any Crossed Mortgage Loan that is
cross-collateralized and/or cross-defaulted (each, a
"Cross-Collateralized
Loan") with such Repurchased Loan, Seller and 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
related Cross-Collateralized Loans held by Trustee, on the other,
would no
longer be cross-defaulted or cross-collateralized with one another;
provided
that Seller shall have furnished Trustee, at the expense of Seller,
a
nondisqualification opinion that such modification shall not cause
an Adverse
REMIC Event; provided, further, that if such nondisqualification
opinion cannot
be furnished, Seller and Purchaser agree that such repurchase or
substitution of
only the Repurchased Loan, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein,
shall not be permitted and Seller shall repurchase or substitute
for the
Repurchased Loan and all related Cross-Collateralized Loans. Any
reserve or
other cash collateral or letters of credit securing the
Cross-Collateralized
Mortgage Loans shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in
accordance with
the Mortgage Loan documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based
upon their
outstanding Principal Balances. 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 to Exhibit 2 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.
5.6 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: (a) the absence from the Mortgage
File of the
original signed Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage File contains a
signed lost
note affidavit and indemnity that appears to be regular on its
face; (b) the
absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage that
appears to
be regular on its face,

unless there is included in the Mortgage File a certified copy of
the Mortgage
by the local authority with which the Mortgage was recorded; or (c)
the absence
from the Mortgage File of the item specified in paragraph 2.2.8. If
any of the
foregoing Material Document Defects is discovered by the Custodian
(or Trustee
if there is no Custodian), Trustee (or as set forth in Section
2.3(a) of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, 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 Seller for
the cure of
the Material Document Defect or repurchase or replacement of the
related
Mortgage Loan.
5.7 If 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 Mortgage Loan from the Trust or (iii) to replace such
Mortgage Loan
with a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan, each in accordance with
this
Agreement, then provided that (i) the period of time provided for
Seller to
correct, repurchase or cure has expired and (ii) the Mortgage Loan
is then in
default and is then a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, 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
Sections 9.5, 9.12, 9.15 and 9.36, as applicable, of the Pooling
and Servicing
Agreement, while pursuing the repurchase claim. Seller acknowledges
and agrees
that any modification of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to a work-out
shall not
constitute a defense to any repurchase claim nor shall such
modification and
work-out change the Purchase Price due from 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 Seller shall be without

any kind (either express or imp
