(b)The following definitions in Section 2 of the Repurchase Agreement are hereby deleted in their entirety and the following corresponding definitions are substituted therefor:
Actual Knowledge” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the then current actual knowledge of Katharine Keenan, Robert Sitman and Libby Kislak, without duty of




further inquiry or investigation; provided, that if any such individual ceases to be an officer of or in the employ of Seller and/or Guarantor after the date of this Agreement in a capacity comparable to the capacity occupied as of the date of this Agreement, then Seller shall designate promptly another individual reasonably acceptable to Buyer for purposes of satisfying this definition.
Applicable Spread” shall mean, with respect to each Transaction:
(i)    so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the number of basis points (i.e., 1 basis point equals 0.01%) set forth in the related Confirmation; or

It is understood and agreed that no improvement or decline in the LTV (Loan UPB) after the applicable Purchase Date for a Purchased Loan shall result in any adjustment to the Applicable Spread for such Purchased Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any setting of any Benchmark as provided above would result in such Benchmark setting being less than the applicable Benchmark Floor, such setting of such Benchmark shall instead be deemed to be such Benchmark Floor.
Benchmark Replacement” shall mean, with respect to any replacement of any then-current Benchmark under the terms of this Agreement, the sum of (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by Buyer giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for such Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated commercial mortgage loan repurchase facilities or other similar agreements at such time and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; provided, that such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is consistent with the benchmark rate selected by Buyer in its other commercial mortgage loan repurchase facilities with similarly situated counterparties and wherein Buyer has a similar contractual right; provided, further, that in connection with the replacement of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 3(g)(1)(i), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement shall be Term SOFR (so long as no Benchmark Transition Event and Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred with respect to such rate), as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any setting of the Benchmark Replacement as provided above would result in such Benchmark Replacement setting being less than the applicable Benchmark Floor, such setting of the Benchmark Replacement shall instead be deemed to be such Benchmark Floor.

4




purposes under this Agreement or under any other Transaction Document in respect of such setting and all settings on all subsequent dates (without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and Seller may at any time agree to amend and restate any Confirmation with respect to any Transaction to replace the related Benchmark with respect to such Transaction with the applicable Benchmark Replacement.
(ii)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation or administration of any Benchmark or Benchmark Replacement, in connection with any Benchmark Replacement Date or as a result of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Buyer will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of Seller or any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

Buyer will promptly notify Seller of (a) any Benchmark Replacement Date, (b) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (c) the effectiveness of any changes to the calculation of the Pricing Rate described in Section 3(g)(1)(iii). For the avoidance of doubt, any notice required to be delivered by Buyer as set forth in this Section 3(g) may be provided, at the option of Buyer (in its sole discretion), in one or more notices and may be delivered together with, or as a part of any amendment which implements any Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Buyer pursuant to this Section 3(g), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in Buyer’s sole discretion and without consent from Seller or any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
(v)[Intentionally Omitted].
(vi)Disclaimer. Buyer does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the administration, submission or any other matter related to EURIBOR, BBSY Rate, CDOR Rate, SOFR, the SOFR Average or Term SOFR or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation any Benchmark Replacement implemented hereunder), (b) the composition or characteristics of any such Benchmark Replacement, including whether it is similar to, or produces the same value or economic equivalence to EURIBOR, BBSY Rate, CDOR Rate, SOFR, the SOFR Average or Term SOFR (or any other Benchmark) or have the same volume or liquidity as EURIBOR, BBSY Rate, CDOR Rate, SOFR, the SOFR Average or Term SOFR (or any other Benchmark), (c) any actions or use of its discretion or other decisions or determinations made with respect to any matters covered by Section 3(g) or Section 3(i) including, without limitation, whether or not a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred, whether to declare a Benchmark Transition Event, the removal or lack thereof of unavailable or
5




non-representative tenors of EURIBOR, BBSY Rate, CDOR Rate, SOFR, the SOFR Average or Term SOFR (or any other Benchmark), the implementation or lack thereof of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, the delivery or non-delivery of any notices required by Section 3(g)(1)(iv) or otherwise in accordance herewith, and (d) the effect of any of the foregoing provisions of Section 3(g) or Section 3(i).
(2)    The Pricing Rate for Transactions with respect to Foreign Purchased Loans (GBP) shall be calculated as follows:
(i)    Pricing Rate: The Pricing Rate on each Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP) for each day during a Pricing Rate Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of (x) the Applicable Spread; and (y) the Compounded Reference Rate for that day. If any day during a Pricing Rate Period for a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP) is not an RFR Banking Day, the Pricing Rate on that Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP) for that day will be the Pricing Rate applicable to the immediately preceding RFR Banking Day.
(ii)    Adjustment or Conversion: The Pricing Rate for each Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP) shall be subject to adjustment and/or conversion as provided in the Transaction Documents or the related Confirmation.
(3)    [Intentionally Omitted].
(4)    With respect to any Transaction relating to a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP):
(i)    if a Published Rate Replacement Event has occurred in relation to any Published Rate for a currency applicable to any Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP), any amendment or waiver which relates to:
(A)    providing for the use of a Replacement Reference Rate in relation to that currency in place of that Published Rate; and
(B)    (I)    aligning any provision of any Transaction Document to the use of that Replacement Reference Rate;
(II)    enabling that Replacement Reference Rate to be used for the calculation of Price Differential under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any consequential changes required to enable that Replacement Reference Rate to be used for the purposes of this Agreement);
(III)    implementing market conventions applicable to that Replacement Reference Rate;
(IV)    providing for appropriate fallback (and market disruption) provisions for that Replacement Reference Rate; or
(V)    adjusting the pricing to reduce or eliminate, to the extent reasonably practicable, any transfer of economic
6




value from one party to another as a result of the application of that Replacement Reference Rate (and if any adjustment or method for calculating any adjustment has been formally designated, nominated or recommended by the Relevant Nominating Body, the adjustment shall be determined on the basis of that designation, nomination or recommendation),
may be made by the Buyer with the consent of Seller.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall exercise its rights under this Section 3(g) in a manner substantially similar to Buyer’s exercise of similar rights in agreements with customers similarly situated to Seller where Buyer has comparable contractual rights.

(h) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for Buyer (i) to enter into Transactions as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, then the commitment, if any, of Buyer hereunder to enter into new Transactions shall forthwith be canceled, and (ii) to maintain or continue Transactions as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, then the portion of the Pricing Rate for such date of determination (or on such earlier date as may be required by law), and for all subsequent dates of determination, that corresponds to (X) other than in relation to a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP), the Benchmark and (Y) in relation to a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP), the Compounded Reference Rate, shall be (A) in the case of any Transaction other than a Transaction relating to a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP), a Benchmark Replacement determined by Buyer pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” and (B) in the case of any Transaction relating to a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP), a Transaction based on a rate determined by Buyer in accordance with Section 3(g)(2). If any such conversion of a Transaction occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period with respect to such Transaction, Seller shall pay to Buyer such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3(i) of this Agreement.

(i) Upon written demand by Buyer, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any net actual, out-of-pocket loss or expense (not to include any indirect or consequential damages including, without limitation, any lost profit or opportunity) which Buyer sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) default by Seller in terminating any Transaction after Seller has given a notice in accordance with Section 3(d) hereof of a termination of a Transaction, (ii) other than in relation to a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP) any payment of the Repurchase Price on any day other than a Remittance Date or the Repurchase Date (including, without limitation, any such actual, out-of-pocket loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by Buyer to maintain Transactions hereunder or from customary and reasonable fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained), (iii) a default by Seller in selling Eligible Loans after Seller has notified Buyer of a proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed to purchase such Eligible Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (iv) any determination of the Benchmark which results in a transition to a Benchmark Replacement on a day which is not the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period. If an amount is specified as “Break Costs” in the Reference Rate Terms for a Foreign Purchased Loan (GBP), Seller shall pay such amounts (if any) attributable to all or any part of a Repurchase Price being paid by that Seller on a day other than a Remittance Date or the Repurchase Date. A certificate as to such actual
7




costs, losses, damages and expenses, setting forth the calculations therefor shall be submitted promptly by Buyer to Seller.
