will have a greater effect on the principal payments on the Notes, and therefore on their yield, than would<br />
principal payments on non-balloon mortgage loans.<br />
Additionally, if the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, the Servicer or the Special Servicer<br />
is reimbursed out of general collections on the Libra Loan for an Advance that it has determined is not<br />
recoverable out of collections on the Libra Loan, then that drawing or advance (together with accrued interest<br />
thereon) will be deemed, to the fullest extent possible, to be reimbursed first out of payments and other<br />
collections of principal otherwise distributable on the Notes, prior to being deemed reimbursed out of payments<br />
and other collections of interest otherwise distributable on the Notes.<br />
The Libra Loan requires the payment of Prepayment Charges and/or Yield Maintenance Premia, which<br />
could be a deterrent to prepayments. Although the payment of a Prepayment Charge would be required in<br />
connection with a voluntary prepayment of the Libra Loan during certain periods of time, there can be no<br />
assurance that the Borrower would refrain from prepaying the Libra Loan due to the existence of such<br />
Prepayment Charges or that such Prepayment Charges would be held to be enforceable if challenged.<br />
The timing of changes in the rate of prepayment on the Libra Loan may significantly affect the actual yield<br />
to maturity experienced by an investor even if the average rate of principal payments experienced over time is<br />
consistent with such investor’s expectation. In general, the earlier a prepayment of principal on the Libra Loan,<br />
the greater the effect on such investor’s yield to maturity. As a result, the effect on such investor’s yield of<br />
principal payments occurring at a rate higher (or lower) than the rate anticipated by the investor during the<br />
period immediately following the issuance of the Notes would not be fully offset by a subsequent like reduction<br />
(or increase) in the rate of principal payments.<br />
The Libra Loan accrues interest at a floating rate.<br />
The Issuer is not aware of any publicly available statistics that set forth principal prepayment experience or<br />
prepayment forecasts of commercial mortgage loans over an extended period of time, either fixed-rate loans or<br />
floating rate mortgage loans. The rate of principal prepayments with respect to floating rate mortgage loans has<br />
fluctuated in recent years. As is the case with fixed-rate mortgage loans, floating rate mortgage loans may be<br />
subject to a greater rate of principal prepayments in a declining interest rate environment. For example, if<br />
prevailing interest rates fall significantly, floating rate mortgage loans could be subject to higher prepayment<br />
rates than if prevailing interest rates remain constant because the availability of fixed-rate mortgage loans at<br />
competitive interest rates may encourage mortgagors to re-finance their floating rate mortgage loans to “lock in”<br />
lower fixed interest rate. No assurances can be given as to the rate of prepayments under the Libra Loan in<br />
stable or changing interest rate environments.<br />
The yield on any class of Notes could also be affected by trends in the level of LIBOR and the incurrence of<br />
prepayments and defaults.<br />
No representation is made as to the particular factors that will affect the rate of prepayment of the Libra<br />
Loan, the relative importance of any such factors, the percentage of the principal balance of the Libra Loan that<br />
will be paid as at any date or the overall rate of prepayments on the Libra Loan. An investor is urged to make an<br />
investment decision with respect to any class of Notes based on the anticipated yield to maturity of such class of<br />
Notes resulting from its purchase price and such investor’s own determination as to anticipated loan prepayment<br />
rates under a variety of scenarios. The extent to which any class of Notes is purchased at a discount or a<br />
premium and the degree to which the timing of payments on such class of Notes is sensitive to prepayments will<br />
determine the extent to which the yield to maturity of such class of Notes may vary from the anticipated yield.<br />
An investor should carefully consider the associated risks, including, in the case of any Notes purchased at a<br />
discount, the risk that a slower than anticipated rate of principal payments on the Libra Loan could result in an<br />
actual yield to such investor that is lower than the anticipated yield and, in the case of any Notes purchased at a<br />
premium, the risk that a faster than anticipated rate of principal payments could result in an actual yield to such<br />
investor that is lower than the anticipated yield.<br />
An investor should consider the risk that rapid rates of prepayments on the Libra Loan, and therefore of<br />
amounts distributable in reduction of the principal balance of Notes, may coincide with periods of low<br />
prevailing interest rates. During such periods, the effective interest rates on securities in which an investor may<br />
choose to reinvest such amounts distributed to it may be lower than the applicable pass-through rate.<br />
Conversely, slower rates of prepayments on the Libra Loan, and therefore, of amounts distributable in reduction<br />
of principal balance of the Notes entitled to distributions of principal, may coincide with periods of high<br />
prevailing interest rates. During such periods, the amount of principal distributions resulting from prepayments<br />
