      Termination: Following the occurrence of any Accounting Treatment Change and notice thereof by Party A to Party B, Party B may designate an Early Termination Date with regard to this Transaction without a replacement swap counterparty upon satisfaction of the following conditions: (a) the sum of (I) any reduction in the Program Size and (II) any increase in the Program Notional Amount of any other Interest Rate Swap (as defined therein) shall be equal to or greater than the Program Notional Amount and (b) before designation of such Early Termination Date, the Program Size shall be reduced by an amount equal to or greater than such Program Notional Amount of this Transaction. Notwithstanding Section 6(e) or any other provision of this Agreement and this Confirmation, upon the designation of an Early Termination Date pursuant to this paragraph, no termination payments or any other amounts shall be payable under Section 6(e) or any other provision of this Agreement or this Confirmation by either party, except (A) each party shall make all payments pursuant to this Confirmation through and including such Early Termination Date; and (B) without duplication of the amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing clause (A), Party A shall pay to Party B the unpaid Amounts owing to Party B by Party A as of the Early Termination Date and Party B shall pay to Party A the Unpaid Amounts owing to Party A by Party B as of the Early Termination Date pursuant to this Confirmation, and neither party shall have any further liability in respect of the termination of this Transaction.

As used herein, the term “Accounting Treatment Change” shall mean (x) the determination by auditors for Party A that all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans and other assets of Party B should be included on the consolidated balance sheet of Party A, or (y) any good faith determination by Party A that its costs incurred in connection with this Agreement have increased due to change in applicable accounting, income tax or bank regulatory rules or regulations.

  6.   Early Termination: (i) Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement and/or this Confirmation to the contrary, nothing herein shall affect the rights of Party A if Party B is the Defaulting Party or Affected Party. In the event that an Event of Default or Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and Party A is the sole Defaulting Party or sole Affected Party, Party A and Party B agree as follows:

(1) Party A shall give immediate written notice of such Event of Default or Termination Event to Party B, the Servicer, Moody’s and S&P.

(2) Commencing with the date of such Event of Default or Termination Event, Party A shall use its reasonable efforts to cooperate with Party B and the Servicer to transfer Party A’s rights and duties hereunder to (or otherwise procure a replacement transaction with terms substantially similar to this Transaction with) a successor to Party A having a short-term unsecured and unguaranteed debt rating of “A l+” by S&P and “P 1” by Moody’s and, if rated by Fitch, “F1+” by Fitch and a long-term debt rating of at least “AA ” by S&P and “Aa3” by Moody’s and, if rated by Fitch, “AA-“ by Fitch (a “Successor Counterparty”).

(3) If no Successor Counterparty is appointed and the requirements of Section 6(i)(2) of this Confirmation are otherwise not satisfied within a period following the date of such Event of Default or Termination Event designated by Party B in its sole discretion, Party B may, in its sole discretion, designate an Early Termination Date.

(4) Other than with respect to a transfer resulting from an Additional Termination Event pursuant to Part 1(g)(i) of the Schedule, Party A shall bear or otherwise reimburse Party B and each Servicer for all reasonable costs (excluding any assignment fee or termination fee) associated with the actions required by Section 6(i)(2) of this Confirmation. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent such costs have been paid by Party A to Party B pursuant to Section 11 of the Agreement, such costs will not be included in the calculation of amounts payable pursuant to this provision of the Confirmation.

(ii) Upon any transfer of Party A’s rights and obligations hereunder as a result of the Event of Default or Termination Event specified in Section 6(i) of this Confirmation to a Successor Counterparty or the replacement of this Transaction with a substantially similar transaction with a Successor Counterparty:

(1) The Calculation Agent shall calculate an amount that would be payable to (or by) Party A assuming (i) both this Transaction and any hedge transaction were Terminated Transactions, (ii) that Section 6(e)(i)(3) of the 1992 ISDA Multicurrency Cross-Border Master Agreement were applicable, provided however, following the Market Quotation method, the Settlement Amount shall be the lowest quotation submitted by a Reference Market-maker which is also acceptable to the Successor Counterparty, (iii) that Party A was the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party (as the case may be) and (iv) that the Early Termination Date was the date the Successor Counterparty entered into or assumed such replacement transaction.

(2) To the extent that the Calculation Agent determines in Section 6(ii)(1) of this Confirmation that a payment to Party A would be required, Party B and Party A agree to cause the Successor Counterparty to pay such amount to Party A and such amount shall constitute satisfaction in full of the obligations of Party B to Party A in respect of the assignment of this Transaction to the Successor Counterparty.

(3) To the extent that the Calculation Agent determines in Section 6(ii)(1) of this Confirmation that Party A would be required to make a payment, Party A and Party B agree that Party A will pay such amount to the Successor Counterparty and such amount shall constitute satisfaction in full of the obligations of Party A to Party B in respect of the assignment of the Transaction to the Successor Counterparty.

To the extent that the Partial Termination Payment is a positive number, Party A shall pay such amount to Party B and to the extent that it is a negative number, Party B shall pay to Party A an amount equal to the absolute value thereof.

Polled Price” shall mean, for purposes of each Interest Rate Swap, (x) if three or more Swap Counterparties and the Qualified Bidder prepare quotations under their respective Interest Rate Swaps, or in response to the request of the Calculation Agent (as the case may be), the quotation remaining (if exactly three quotations are prepared) or the arithmetic mean of the quotations (if more than three quotations are prepared) without regard to the quotations having the highest and lowest values, (y) if two Swap Counterparties and the Qualified Bidder, or one Swap Counterparty and the Qualified Bidder, prepare quotations under their respective Interest Rate Swaps, the arithmetic mean of the quotations, and (z) if one Swap Counterparty or the Qualified Bidder prepares a quotation under its Interest Rate Swap, or in response to the request of the Calculation Agent, the arithmetic mean of such quotation and the determination by the Calculation Agent under (i) of the definition of “Credit-Adjusted Price.”
