Capitalized terms used herein but undefined have the meanings given to them in the PSA and Co-Lender Agreements.

Pursuant to Sections 3.21, 6.08(a), 6.08(e) and 7.02 of the PSA, Section 15 of the CrossPoint Co-Lender Agreement, and Section 7 of the Marriott Charlotte Center City Co-Lender Agreement, the Atrium Center Co-Lender Agreement and the Oak Portfolio Co-Lender Agreement, K-Star Asset Management LLC (“K-Star”) hereby agrees with all the other parties to the PSA that K-Star shall serve as the Special Servicer under, and as defined in the PSA with regard to the Serviced Loans. K-Star hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of May 10, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), it is and shall be a party to the PSA and bound thereby to the full extent indicated therein in the capacity of the Special Servicer with respect to the Serviced Loans, but shall have no liability with respect to any act or omission of any predecessor Special Servicer.

Attention: Lindsey Wright

Email: Lindsey.Wright@KKR.com

As of the Effective Date, K-Star hereby:

(a) makes the representations and warranties provided for in Section 2.06 of the PSA mutatis mutandis with all references to “Agreement” in Section 2.06 of the PSA to include this Special Servicer Acknowledgment and Assumption (“Acknowledgment”) in addition to the PSA, except that it (i) is a Delaware limited liability company, and (ii) has executed this Acknowledgment in lieu of execution and delivery of the PSA per Section 2.06(a)(ii); and

(b) certifies that it satisfies all related qualifications set forth in the Co-Lender Agreements relating to the Serviced Companion Loans; and
