1.14.Purchased Loan Documents provisions
To the extent applicable, the Purchased Loan Documents for such Purchased Loan together with applicable law, contain customary and enforceable provisions for comparable underlying Mortgaged Properties similarly situated such as to render the rights and remedies of the lender thereunder adequate for the practical realisation against the related underlying Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby.
There is no exemption available to the related Mortgagor that would interfere with such right of enforcement except (a) any statutory right of redemption or (b) any limitation arising under anti-deficiency laws or by bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship, reorganisation, insolvency, moratorium or 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).
1.15.Security trusts
To the extent applicable, if any Mortgage, general security agreement or other Lien constituted in the Purchased Loan Documents for such Purchased Loan is held on trust for the lenders and/or related parties:
(a)    a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, is properly designated and serving as such; and
(b)    no fees or expenses other than customary fees, costs and indemnities (including annual agency/security agency fees, transfer fees and fees for management time) are payable to such trustee by Seller in the event the related Mortgagor does not fulfil its obligations to pay such amounts under the Purchased Loan.
1.16.Status of the Purchased Loan Documents
The Purchased Loan Documents for such Purchased Loan that were executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor are the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Mortgagor(s), enforceable in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be limited by anti-deficiency laws or bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship, reorganisation, insolvency, moratorium or 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), and except that certain provisions of such Purchased Loan Documents are or may be unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable laws, but the inclusion of such provisions does not render any of the Purchased Loan Documents invalid as a whole, and such Purchased Loan Documents taken as a whole are enforceable to the extent necessary and customary for the practical realisation of the principal rights and benefits afforded thereby.
1.17.Insurance
(a)    Each underlying Mortgaged Property securing such Purchased Loan is, and is required pursuant to the related Purchased Loan Documents to be, covered by insurance (including, without limitation with respect to fire and extended perils insurance included within the classification “All Risk of Physical Loss”) on the relevant underlying Mortgaged Property and plant and machinery thereon (including fixtures and improvements) at least equal to the lesser of the replacement cost of improvements located on such underlying Mortgaged Property, with no deduction for depreciation, and the outstanding principal balance of such Purchased Loan (subject to customary deductibles) and in any event, the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-
Appendix B-5


insurance provisions on a full replacement cost basis of such underlying Mortgaged Property (in some cases exclusive of foundations and footings) with an agreed amount endorsement to avoid application of any coinsurance provision; such policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming mortgagee and its successor-in-interest as additional insureds or loss payee, as applicable.
(b)    Each underlying Mortgaged Property comprising real estate securing such Purchased Loan is covered by business interruption or rental loss insurance in an amount at least equal to (i) three (3) years of operations, with an extended indemnity for three (3) additional years after property is repaired or rebuilt as a result of casualty or condemnation or (ii) in some cases all rents and other amounts customarily insured under this type of insurance of the underlying Mortgaged Property.
(c)    Each underlying Mortgaged Property securing such Purchased Loan is covered by comprehensive general liability insurance against claims for personal and bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the related underlying Mortgaged Property, in an amount usually covered by a reasonably prudent mortgagee of a property of the same nature and in a comparable location.
(d)    The relevant insurance policy for any underlying Mortgaged Property comprising real estate securing such Purchased Loan provides cover in respect of at least three years loss of rent.
(e)    Such insurance policy contains a standard mortgagee clause that names the Seller (or agent or trustee therefor) in respect of such Purchased Loan (each a “Mortgagee”) in respect of such Purchased Loan as an additional insured and interested party and that requires at least thirty days’ (in the case of termination or cancellation other than for non-payment of premiums) and at least ten days’ (in the case of termination or cancellation for non-payment of premiums or where applicable law so requires) prior notice to the holder of the related Mortgage, and no such notice has been received, including any notice of non-payment of premiums, that has not been cured.
(f)    Each Mortgage and general security agreement securing such Purchased Loan obliges the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, upon such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorises the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the related Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor.
(g)    Any insurance proceeds in respect of loss, damage or destruction, will be applied either: (i) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related underlying Mortgaged Property comprising real estate; or (ii) the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of such Purchased Loan, subject in either case to requirements with respect to leases at the related underlying Mortgaged Property comprising real estate and to other exceptions customarily provided for by prudent institutional lenders for similar loans.
(h)    The related underlying Mortgaged Property is insured by an insurance policy, issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of such Purchased Loan and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating of at least A-1 or higher by Standard & Poor's Rating Services or Fitch Ratings Ltd or A3 or higher by Moody's Investors Service Limited. The insurer issuing each of the foregoing insurance policies is qualified to write insurance in the jurisdiction where the related underlying Mortgaged Property is located.
(i)    All premiums with respect to the insurance policies insuring each underlying Mortgaged Property have been paid in a timely manner or escrowed to the extent required by the Purchased Loan Documents, and Seller has not received any notice of cancellation or termination. The relevant Purchased Loan File contains the insurance policy required for such Purchased Loan or a certificate of insurance for such insurance policy.
Appendix B-6


(j)    None of the Purchased Loan Documents contain any provision that expressly excuses the related borrower from obtaining and maintaining insurance coverage for acts of terrorism and, in circumstances where terrorism insurance is not expressly required, the mortgagee is not prohibited from requesting that the related borrower maintain such insurance, in each case, to the extent such insurance coverage is generally available for like properties in such jurisdictions at commercially reasonable rates. Each underlying Mortgaged Property is insured by an “all-risk” casualty insurance policy that does not contain an express exclusion for (or, alternatively, is covered by a separate policy that insures against property damage resulting from) acts of terrorism.

(h)    the Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the Ground Lessee requires the lessor to give notice of any default by the Ground Lessee to the Mortgagee. The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement further provides that no notice given is effective against the Mortgagee unless a copy has been given to the Mortgagee in a manner described in the Ground Lease or ancillary agreement;
(i)    a Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession under the Ground Lease) to cure any curable default under such Ground Lease before the lessor thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease;
