Each Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction may be terminated in accordance with certain<br />

termination events and events of default (each, a “Swap Termination Event”), the most important of which are<br />

more particularly described below.<br />

An acceleration of the Libra Whole Loan as a result of a Loan Event of Default under the Credit Agreement<br />

for the Libra Whole Loan may result in the Swap Agreements being terminated. In addition, the prepayment or<br />

part prepayment of the Libra Loan will constitute an additional termination event.<br />

The Swap Provider will be obliged to make payments under the Swap Agreements and the Basis Swap<br />

Agreement without any withholding or deduction of taxes unless required by law. If any such withholding or<br />

deduction is required by law, the Swap Provider will be required to pay such additional amount as is necessary<br />

to ensure that the amount actually received by the Borrower will equal the full amount the Borrower would have<br />

received had no such withholding or deduction been required or, if such withholding or deduction is a<br />

withholding or deduction which will or would be or becomes the subject of any tax credit, allowance, set-off,<br />

repayment or refund to the Swap Provider, to use all reasonable endeavours to reach agreement to mitigate the<br />

incidence of tax on the Issuer and may transfer the swap to an affiliate to mitigate the same.<br />

The Swap Agreement and the Basis Swap Agreement provide or will provide, however, that if due to action<br />

taken by a relevant taxing authority or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction or any change in tax law the<br />

Swap Provider will, or there is a substantial likelihood that it will, on the next payment date, be required to pay<br />

additional amounts in respect of tax under the Swap Agreement and the Basis Swap Agreement or will, or there<br />

is a substantial likelihood that it will, receive payment from the other party from which an amount is required to<br />

be deducted or withheld for or on account of tax (a “Tax Event”), the Swap Provider will use its reasonable<br />

efforts to transfer its rights and obligations to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or a suitably rated third<br />

party to avoid the relevant Tax Event. If no such transfer can be effected, the Swap Agreement and the Basis<br />

Swap Agreement and the Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction may be terminated. The Swap<br />

Agreement and the Basis Swap Agreement will contain certain other limited termination events and events of<br />

default which will entitle either party to terminate.<br />

As at the date hereof, Credit Suisse International has a rating assigned to its short-term, unsecured,<br />

unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt obligations of “A-1+” by S&P, “F-1+” by Fitch and “P-1” by Moody’s<br />

and to its long-term, unsecured, unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt obligations of “AA-” by S&P, “AA-” by<br />

Fitch and “Aa3” by Moody’s. If (i) the Swap Provider’s short-term, unsecured, unsubordinated and<br />

unguaranteed debt obligations cease to be rated at least “A-1” by S&P, “F-1” by Fitch and “Prime-1” by<br />

Moody’s or (ii) the Swap Provider’s long-term, unsecured, unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt obligations<br />

cease to be rated at least “A2” by Moody’s and “A+” by Fitch (the “Minimum Swap Provider Ratings” in<br />

respect of the Swap Provider) the relevant Swap Provider will be required under the Swap Agreement at its cost<br />

and within 30 Business Days, to either (a) post acceptable collateral, (b) transfer its rights and obligations to a<br />

Swap Provider as agreed by the Note Trustee or agent (which may be based upon confirmation from the related<br />

Rating Agency as to no Adverse Rating Event), or, with respect to S&P and Moody’s, with the Minimum Swap<br />

Provider Ratings or (c) obtain an acceptable guarantee; provided, however, that if (i) the relevant Swap<br />

Provider’s short-term obligations cease to be rated at least “F-2” by Fitch and “Prime-2” by Moody’s or (ii) the<br />

relevant Swap Provider’s long-term obligations cease to be rated at least “BBB-” by S&P, “BBB+” by Fitch or<br />

“A3” by Moody’s (a “Second Trigger Event”), the relevant Swap Provider must comply with (a) (within 30<br />

business days) and also make reasonable efforts to comply with (b) or (c) above. If the Swap Provider does not<br />

perform its obligations described above, this will constitute an additional termination event or, in the case of a<br />

Second Trigger Event, an event of default.<br />

Upon the occurrence of any termination of the Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction (whether<br />

because of a downgrade by S&P, Fitch or Moody’s, as applicable, of the ratings of the Swap Provider or<br />

otherwise) the Servicer, or, if at the relevant time the Libra Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan, the<br />

Special Servicer is obliged pursuant to the Servicing Agreement to use efforts consistent with the Servicing<br />

Standard to enter into, or procure the entry into of, a replacement hedge transaction on identical terms to the<br />

Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction, with another swap counterparty which has the relevant<br />

Minimum Swap Provider Ratings, within 30 days, unless S&P provide a written confirmation (following<br />

notification in writing of the relevant matter to all Rating Agencies) that no downgrade to the then current<br />

ratings of the Notes would occur as a result of the failure to do so.<br />
