(v)notwithstanding the foregoing, one or more Interest Rate Hedges may be combined into a single Interest Rate Hedge which, in the aggregate, satisfies the requirements set forth in this Section 6.01(n);

(vi)if, on any Payment Date the aggregate notional amount of all Interest Rate Hedges that are interest rate swaps is greater than 110% of the Loan Balance on such date (after giving effect to any payments or Loan Increase on such date), the Servicer shall cause the Borrower to amend or terminate existing Interest Rate Hedges that are interest rate swaps such that the aggregate notional amount of all Interest Rate Hedges that are interest rate swaps at such time shall be equal to the Loan Balance at such time (terminating those Interest Rate Hedges that are interest rate swaps in descending order from those Interest Rate Hedges with the highest fixed rate to those Interest Rate Hedge with the next highest fixed rate and so on); and all Interest Rate Hedge Termination Payments owed by the Borrower and other costs incurred in connection with the termination contemplated by this paragraph shall be paid by the Servicer; and

In the event that pursuant to the terms of the applicable Interest Rate Hedge, the related Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty is required to deposit cash or securities as collateral to secure its obligations (“Hedge Collateral”), the Borrower shall deposit all Hedge Collateral received from the Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty into the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account. All sums on deposit and securities held in any Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be used only for the purposes set forth in the related credit support annex (“Credit Support Annex”) to the Interest Rate Hedge. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, a Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be (i) for application to the obligations of the applicable Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty under the related Interest Rate Hedge in accordance with the terms of the Credit Support Annex and (ii) to return collateral to the Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty when and as required by the Credit Support Annex. Amounts on deposit in each Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be invested at the written direction of the related Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, and all investment earnings actually received on amounts on deposit in a Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account or distributions on securities held as Hedge Collateral shall be distributed or held in accordance with the terms of the related Credit Support Annex. Any amounts applied by the Borrower to the obligations of an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty under an Interest Rate Hedge in accordance with the terms of the related Credit Support Annex shall constitute Interest Rate Hedge Receipts and be deposited in the Collection Account and applied in accordance with Section 2.04(c). The Borrower agrees to give the applicable Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty prompt notice if it obtains knowledge that the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account or any funds on deposit therein or otherwise to the credit of the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account, shall or have become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.”
