MORTGAGE LOAN PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (this "Agreement"), is dated and

effective as of December 18, 2003, between Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company, as

Mortgage Loan Seller (the "Mortgage Loan Seller" or "GSMC") and GMAC Commercial

Mortgage Securities, Inc., as purchaser (the "Purchaser").

The Mortgage Loan Seller desires to sell, assign, transfer and

otherwise convey to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser desires to purchase,

subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the multifamily and

commercial mortgage loans, including GSMC's 50% pari passu interest in a certain

commercial mortgage loan (the "Mortgage Loans"), identified on the schedule

annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the "Mortgage Loan Schedule"). Certain other

multifamily and commercial mortgage loans (the "Other Mortgage Loans") will be

purchased by the Purchaser from (i) GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation

("GMACCM"), pursuant to, and for the consideration described in, the Mortgage

Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2003 (the "GMACCM Mortgage

Loan Purchase Agreement"), between the Purchaser and GMACCM, (ii) German

American Capital Corporation ("GACC"), pursuant to, and for the consideration

described in, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 18,

2003 (the "GACC Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement"), between the Purchaser and

GACC, (iii) Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital, Inc., pursuant to, and for the

consideration described in, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of

December 18, 2003 (the "MSMC Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement"), between the

Purchaser and MSMC and (iv) Commerzbank AG, New York Branch ("COMBANK"),

pursuant to, and for the consideration described in, the Mortgage Loan Purchase

Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2003 (the "COMBANK Mortgage Loan Purchase

Agreement"), between the Purchaser and COMBANK. The Mortgage Loan Seller,

GMACCM, GACC, MSMC and COMBANK are collectively referred to as the "Mortgage

Loan Sellers."

It is expected that the Mortgage Loans will be transferred together

with the Other Mortgage Loans, to a trust fund (the "Trust Fund") to be formed

by the Purchaser, beneficial ownership of which will be evidenced by a series of

mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Certificates"). Certain classes of the

Certificates will be rated by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor's

Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. and Fitch, Inc.

(together, the "Rating Agencies"). Certain classes of the Certificates (the

"Registered Certificates") will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933,

as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Trust Fund will be created and the

Certificates will be issued pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement to be

dated as of December 1, 2003 (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement"), among the

Purchaser, as depositor, GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation, as master

servicer (in such capacity, the "Master Servicer") and serviced companion loan

paying agent, Lennar Partners, Inc., as special servicer of the Mortgage Loans

(other than the AFR/Bank of America Portfolio Loan) and the Other Mortgage Loans

(in such capacity, as applicable, the "Special Servicer"), Midland Loan

Services, Inc., as special servicer of theAFR/Bank of America Portfolio Whole

Loan (the "AFR/Bank of America Special Servicer"), LaSalle Bank National

Association, as trustee (the "Trustee") and ABN AMRO Bank N.V. as fiscal agent.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to

them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date.

Securities Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated

(together, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated the

date hereof (the "Underwriting Agreement"). The Purchaser intends to sell the

Class S-AFR1, Class S-AFR2, Class S-AFR3 and Class S-AFR4 (collectively, the

"Class S-AFR Certificates") and the Class X-1, Class X-2, Class A-1A, Class F,

Class G, Class H, Class J, Class K, Class L, Class M, Class N, Class O and Class

P Certificates to Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Morgan

pursuant to a certificate purchase agreement, dated the date hereof (the

"Certificate Purchase Agreement"). The Purchaser intends to sell the Class R-I,

Class R-II and Class R-III Certificates to a Qualified Institutional Buyer (in

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 Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to sell, assign, transfer and otherwise

convey to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase, the Mortgage

Loans. The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on December

18, 2003 or such other date as shall be mutually acceptable to the parties

hereto (the "Closing Date"). The "Cut-off Date" with respect to any Mortgage

Loan is the Due Date for such Mortgage Loan in December 2003. As of the close of

business on their respective Cut-off Dates (which Cut-off Dates may occur after

the Closing Date), the Mortgage Loans will have an aggregate principal balance

(the "Aggregate Cut-off Date Balance"), after application of all payments of

principal due thereon on or before such date, whether or not received, of

$254,361,761 subject to a variance of plus or minus 5%. The purchase price for

the Mortgage Loans shall be determined by the parties pursuant to an agreed upon

term sheet.

SECTION 2. Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.

(a) Effective as of the Closing Date, subject only to receipt by the

Mortgage Loan Seller of the purchase price referred to in Section 1 hereof

(exclusive of any applicable holdback for transaction expenses), the Mortgage

Loan Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to

the Purchaser, without recourse, all the right, title and interest of the

Mortgage Loan Seller in and to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage

Loan Schedule as of such date, including all interest and principal received or

receivable by the Mortgage Loan Seller on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans

after the Cut-off Date for each such Mortgage Loan, together with all of the

Mortgage Loan Seller's right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any

related title, hazard or other insurance policies and any escrow, reserve or

other comparable accounts related to the Mortgage Loans. The Purchaser shall be

entitled to (and, to the extent received by or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan

Seller, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to or at

the direction of the Purchaser) all scheduled payments of

 

2

<PAGE>

principal and interest due on the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-off Date for such

Mortgage Loans, and all other recoveries of principal and interest collected

thereon after such Cut-off Date. All scheduled payments of principal and

interest due thereon on or before the Cut-off Date for each Mortgage Loan and

collected after such Cut-off Date shall belong to the Mortgage Loan Seller.

(b) In connection with the Mortgage Loan Seller's assignment pursuant

to subsection (a) above, the Mortgage Loan Seller acknowledges that the

Purchaser has directed the Mortgage Loan Seller, and the Mortgage Loan Seller

hereby agrees, to deliver the Mortgage File (as such term is defined in the

Pooling and Servicing Agreement) to the Trustee, and otherwise comply with the

requirements of Sections 2.01(b), 2.01(c) and 2.01(d) of the Pooling and

Servicing Agreement, provided that whenever the term Mortgage File is used to

refer to documents actually received by the Purchaser or the Trustee, such term

shall not be deemed to include such documents and instruments required to be

included therein unless they are actually so received.

(c) The Mortgage Loan Seller's records will reflect the transfer of the

Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser as a sale.

SECTION 3. Examination of Mortgage Loan Files and Due Diligence Review.

The Mortgage Loan Seller shall reasonably cooperate with any

examination of the Mortgage Files and Servicing Files that may be undertaken by

or on behalf of the Purchaser. The fact that the Purchaser has conducted or has

failed to conduct any partial or complete examination of the Mortgage Files

and/or Servicing Files shall not affect the Purchaser's right to pursue any

remedy available in equity or at law for a breach of the Mortgage Loan Seller's

representations, warranties and covenants set forth in or contemplated by

Section 4.

SECTION 4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Mortgage

Loan Seller.

(a) The Mortgage Loan Seller hereby makes, as of the Closing Date (or

as of such other date specifically provided in the particular representation or

warranty), to and for the benefit of the Purchaser and its successors and

assigns (including, without limitation, the Trustee and the holders of the

Certificates), each of the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit B

with respect to the Mortgage Loans, with such changes or modifications as may be

permitted or required by the Rating Agencies.

(b) In addition, the Mortgage Loan Seller, as of the date hereof,

hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Purchaser that:

(i) The Mortgage Loan Seller is a limited partnership, duly

organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the

State of New York, and is in compliance with the laws of each State in

which any Mortgaged Property is located to the extent necessary to

ensure the enforceability of each Mortgage Loan and to perform its

obligations under this Agreement.

(ii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Mortgage

Loan Seller, and the performance and compliance with the terms of this

Agreement by the Mortgage Loan Seller, will not violate the Mortgage

Loan Seller's organizational

documents or 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 agreement or other instrument to which

it is a party or which is applicable to it or any of its assets, in

each case which materially and adversely affect the ability of the

Mortgage Loan Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement.

(iii) The Mortgage Loan Seller has the full power and authority

to enter into and consummate all transactions contemplated by this

Agreement, has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance

of this Agreement, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.

(iv) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and

delivery by the Purchaser, constitutes a valid, legal and binding

obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller, enforceable against the

Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with the terms hereof, subject to

(A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and

other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally,

(B) general principles of equity, regardless of whether such

enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (C)

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 for securities laws liabilities.

(v) The Mortgage Loan Seller is not in violation of, and its

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, any order or decree of any court or arbiter or

any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state or local

governmental or regulatory authority, which violation, in the Mortgage

Loan Seller's good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to affect

materially and adversely either the ability of the Mortgage Loan

Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the

financial condition of the Mortgage Loan Seller.

(vi) No litigation is pending with regard to which the Mortgage

Loan Seller has received service of process or, to the best of the

Mortgage Loan Seller's knowledge, threatened against the Mortgage Loan

Seller the outcome of which, in the Mortgage Loan Seller's good faith

and reasonable judgment, could reasonably be expected to prohibit the

Mortgage Loan Seller from entering into this Agreement or materially

and adversely affect the ability of the Mortgage Loan Seller to

perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(vii) The Mortgage Loan Seller has not dealt with any broker,

investment banker, agent or other person, other than the Purchaser,

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 the consummation of

any of the other transactions contemplated hereby.

(viii) Neither the Mortgage Loan Seller nor anyone acting on its

behalf has (A) offered, pledged, sold, disposed of, or otherwise

transferred any Certificate, any interest in any Certificate or any

other similar security to any person in any manner, (B) solicited

 

4

any offer to buy or to accept a pledge, disposition or other transfer

of any Certificate, any interest in any Certificate or any other

similar security from any person in any manner, (C) otherwise

approached or negotiated with respect to any Certificate, any interest

in any Certificate or any other similar security with any person in

any manner, (D) made any general solicitation by means of general

advertising or in any other manner with respect to any Certificate,

any interest in any Certificate or any similar security, or (E) taken

any other action, that (in the case of any of the acts described in

clauses (A) through (E) above) would constitute or result in a

violation of the Securities Act or any state securities law relating

to or in connection with the issuance of the Certificates or require

registration or qualification pursuant to the Securities Act or any

state securities law of any Certificate not otherwise intended to be a

Registered Certificate. In addition, the Mortgage Loan Seller will not

act, nor has it authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in

any manner set forth in the foregoing sentence with respect to any of

the Certificates or interests therein. For purposes of this paragraph

4(b)(viii), the term "similar security" shall be deemed to include,

without limitation, any security evidencing or, upon issuance, that

Mortgage Loans or any substantial number thereof.

Supplement (exclusive of the Loan Detail), and such information does not

represent a restatement or aggregation of information contained in the Loan

Detail; (iii) any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission

or alleged omission is with respect to information regarding the Water Tower

Place Whole Loan and the 5 Houston Center Whole Loan or the Mortgaged Property

related thereto contained in the Prospectus Supplement or the Memorandum under

"--Geographic Concentrations of the Mortgaged Properties," "--Property Types,"

Pool," "Servicing of the Mortgage Loans," "The Pooling and Servicing Agreement"

and/or "Description of the Certificates" or contained on Annex A and/or Annex B

that the indemnification provided by this Section 9 shall not apply to the

extent that such untrue statement of a material fact or omission of a material

fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances in

which they were made, not misleading, was made as a result of an error in the

manipulation of, or calculations based upon, the Loan Detail. This indemnity

agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Mortgage Loan Seller

may otherwise have. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,

the parties agree that Mortgage Loan Seller shall only be obligated to indemnify

the Persons entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9 for a maximum

such Person with respect to the Mortgage Loan that represents 50% of the total

portion of the Water Tower Mortgage Loan being conveyed to the Trust with the

agreement with respect to, among other things, its interest in the Water Tower

Mortgage Loan that it is transferring to the Trust. The failure of COMBANK to

honor its obligations under the separate mortgage loan purchase agreement

indemnification provisions shall in no event increase the liability or

obligations of Mortgage Loan Seller hereunder, and any indemnified liabilities

shall be payable on a pro rata basis by Seller (up to the Maximum Percentage)

(b) Promptly after receipt by any person entitled to indemnification under this

Section 9 (each, an "indemnified party") of notice of the commencement of any

action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made

against the Mortgage Loan Seller (the "indemnifying party") under this Section

9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the

omission to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability

that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9.

In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies

the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will

be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may elect by

written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the

aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof,

with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if

the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the

indemnifying party and the indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably

concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or them and/or other

indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to

the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to

select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise

participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or

parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified

party of its election to assume the defense of such action and approval by the

indemnified party of counsel, which approval will not be unreasonably

<PAGE>

withheld, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any legal or other

expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the

defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate

counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with

the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the

indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one

separate counsel, approved by the Purchaser and the indemnifying party,

representing all the indemnified parties under Section 9(a) who are parties to

such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel

reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified

party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, or

(iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the

indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if

clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall only be in respect of

the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii).

(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is due in

accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a court to be

unavailable to an indemnified party on grounds of policy or otherwise, then the

indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall

contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result

of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, in such proportion as is

appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified and indemnifying

parties in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such

losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable

considerations. The relative fault of the indemnified and indemnifying parties

shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or

alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission

to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such parties.

(d) The Purchaser and the Mortgage Loan Seller agree that it would not

be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 9(c) were determined

by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take

account of the considerations referred to in Section 9(c) above. The amount paid

or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages

and liabilities referred to in this Section 9 shall be deemed to include,

subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses

reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating

or defending any such action or claim, except where the indemnified party is

required to bear such expenses pursuant to this Section 9, which expenses the

indemnifying party shall pay as and when incurred, at the request of the

indemnified party, to the extent that the indemnifying party will be ultimately

obligated to pay such expenses. If any expenses so paid by the indemnifying

party are subsequently determined to not be required to be borne by the

indemnifying party hereunder, the party that received such payment shall

promptly refund the amount so paid to the party, which made such payment. No

person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section

11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person

who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section

9 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any

termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by any indemnified

party, and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Certificates.
