1.1            Seller agrees to sell, and Purchaser agrees to purchase, on a servicing released basis, the Mortgage Loans identified on the schedule (the “ Mortgage Loan Schedule ”) annexed

 

 

hereto as Exhibit 1 , as such schedule may be amended to reflect the actual Mortgage Loans accepted by Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof.  The Cut-Off Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans is October 1, 2011; provided that, with respect to any Mortgage Loans not having due dates on the first day of each month, the scheduled payments of principal and/or interest due thereon during October 2011 are deemed to have been received on October 1, 2011 rather than the actual date of receipt.  The Mortgage Loans will have an aggregate principal balance as of the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, after giving effect to any payments during or prior to October 2011, whether or not received, of $903,842,885.  The sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on October 5, 2011 or such other date as shall be mutually acceptable to the parties hereto (the “ Closing Date ”).  The purchase price to be paid by Purchaser for the Mortgage Loans shall equal the amount to be set forth as such purchase price in the Bill of Sale (substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto), to be entered into between the parties to this Agreement in connection with this Agreement and the issuance of the Certificates (the “ Bill of Sale ”), which purchase price excludes accrued interest and applicable deal expenses.  The purchase price shall be paid to Seller by wire transfer in immediately available funds on the Closing Date.

2.10.1            this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement; and

2.10.2            the conveyance provided for in this Section 2 shall be deemed to be a grant by Seller to Purchaser of, and Seller hereby grants to Purchaser, a security interest in all of Seller’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, in, to and under:

2.11            The possession by Purchaser or its designee of the Mortgage Notes, the Mortgages, and such other goods, letters of credit, advices of credit, instruments, money, documents, chattel paper or certificated securities shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party or possession by a purchaser for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC (including, without limitation, Section 9-313 thereof) as in force in the

 

 

relevant jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller makes no representation or warranty as to the perfection of any such security interest.

2.13            The Seller hereby agrees to provide the Purchaser with prompt notice of any information it receives which indicates that the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller to the Purchaser may not be treated as a sale.  The Seller shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement.  In such case, the Seller hereby authorizes the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Custodian to file all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings necessary under the UCC as in effect in any jurisdiction to perfect such security interest in such property.  In connection herewith, the Purchaser shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party and creditor under the UCC as in force in the relevant jurisdiction.

2.14            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and subject to Section 2.1 hereof, Purchaser shall not be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which any Mortgage Note (endorsed as described in clause 2.2.1 hereof) required to be delivered to or on behalf of the Trustee or the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 2 on or before the Closing Date is not so delivered, or is not properly executed or is defective on its face, and Purchaser’s acceptance of the related Mortgage Loan on the Closing Date shall in no way constitute a waiver of such omission or defect or of Purchaser’s or its successors’ and assigns’ rights in respect thereof pursuant to Section 5 hereof.

3.2            On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall allow representatives of Purchaser and any designees thereof   to examine and audit all books, records and files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans, Seller’s underwriting procedures and Seller’s ability to perform or observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement.  Such examinations and audits shall take place upon reasonable prior advance notice at one or more offices of Seller during normal business hours and shall not be conducted in a manner that is disruptive to Seller’s normal business operations.  In the course of such examinations and audits, Seller will make available to such representatives of Purchaser and any designees thereof reasonably adequate facilities, as well as the assistance of a sufficient number of knowledgeable and responsible individuals who are familiar with the Mortgage Loans and the terms of this Agreement, and Seller shall cooperate fully with any such examination and audit in all material respects.  On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Purchaser with all material information regarding Seller’s financial condition and access to knowledgeable financial or accounting officers for the purpose of answering questions with respect to Seller’s financial condition, financial statements as provided to Purchaser or other developments affecting Seller’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise affecting Seller in any material respect.  Within 45 days after the Closing Date, Seller shall provide the Master Servicer with any additional information identified by the Master Servicer as necessary to complete the CREFC Property File, to the extent that such information is available.
