(b) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Registered Certificates is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, (i) any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (ii) it shall be necessary to revise, amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, CCMS promptly will, to the extent it has knowledge thereof, prepare and file with the Commission, subject to paragraph (a) of this Section 5, a revision, amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance and will deliver a copy thereof to the Underwriters. (c) Upon request, so long as delivery of a prospectus relating to the Registered Certificates is required under the Securities Act, CCMS will furnish to any Underwriter and counsel for such Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus and any revisions or amendments thereof or supplements thereto as may be reasonably requested. (d) CCMS will arrange for the qualification of the Registered Certificates for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as CGMI may designate, maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Registered Certificates and arrange for the determination of the legality of the Registered Certificates for purchase by institutional investors; provided, however, that CCMS shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject. (e) CCMS will cause or, if appropriate, has caused any Computational Materials and ABS Term Sheets (each as defined in Section 9) with respect to the Registered Certificates, which are or have been delivered by the Underwriters to CCMS pursuant to or as contemplated by Section 9, to be filed with the Commission on a Current Report pursuant to Rule 13a-11 under the Exchange Act not later than, in each such case, the business day immediately following the later of (i) the day on which such Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets are delivered to counsel for CCMS by the Underwriters (it being understood that any such 8 material that is delivered after 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on a business day shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next business day) and (ii) the date hereof; and, if such filing is subsequent to the date hereof, CCMS will promptly advise the Underwriters when each such Current Report has been so filed. If any Collateral Term Sheet (as defined in Section 9) is provided by any Underwriter to potential investors in the Registered Certificates, CCMS will cause each such Collateral Term Sheet that is delivered by such Underwriter to CCMS to be filed with the Commission on a Current Report pursuant to Rule 13a-11 under the Exchange Act on the business day immediately following the day on which such Collateral Term Sheet is delivered to counsel for CCMS by such Underwriter (it being understood that any such material that is delivered after 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on a business day shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next business day). Each such Current Report shall be incorporated by reference in the Prospectus and the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CCMS shall have no obligation to file materials provided by the Underwriters pursuant to or as contemplated by Section 9 which, in the reasonable determination of CCMS after making reasonable efforts to consult with the Underwriters, are not required to be filed pursuant to the No-Action Letters (as defined in Section 9), or which contain erroneous information or contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or which, when read in conjunction with the Prospectus, omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; it being understood, however, that CCMS shall have no obligation to review or pass upon the accuracy or adequacy of, or to correct, any Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets provided by the Underwriters to CCMS pursuant to or as contemplated by Section 9 hereof. (f) The purchase of the Certificates by each of the Underwriters, at the Closing Date, will be treated by each Underwriter for financial accounting and reporting purposes as a sale of the Certificates by CCMS and not as a pledge of the Certificates to secure a debt. The Underwriters agree to sell the Registered Certificates only to purchasers other than CCMS, the Mortgage Loan Sellers and their respective affiliates. (g) CCMS will make generally available to holders of the Registered Certificates as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than eighteen months after the filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) with respect to the Mortgage Pool as contemplated by Section 11(a) of the Securities Act), which pursuant to Rule 158 under the Securities Act may be the annual report filed with the Commission with respect to the Trust. 6.

(f) CCMS and the Underwriters shall have received from Ernst & Young, certified public accountants, a letter dated on or about the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to CCMS and the Underwriters, to the effect that they have performed certain specified procedures, all of which have been agreed to by CCMS and the Underwriters, as a result of which they confirmed the information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature included in the Prospectus Supplement under the caption "Yield and Maturity Considerations" and Annex C thereto. (g) Ernst & Young shall have furnished to CCMS and each Underwriter a letter or letters, each in form and substance satisfactory to CCMS, relating to the Computational Materials and ABS Terms Sheets of such Underwriter filed in accordance with Section 5(e), dated the date of the related Current Report and stating in effect that: (i) Using the assumptions and methodology used by such Underwriter, all of which shall be described by reference in the letter, they have recalculated the numerical data and dates set forth in such Computational Materials and ABS Term Sheets of such Underwriter (or portions thereof) attached to such letter, compared the results of their calculations to the corresponding items in such Computational Materials and ABS Term Sheets (or portions thereof) and found such items to be in agreement with the respective results of such calculation; (ii) If such Computational Materials and ABS Term Sheets include data reflecting the distribution of interest at other than a fixed rate, or reflecting other characteristics that give rise to the use of tables in such Computational Materials and ABS Term Sheets, such letter shall also set forth such other statements as are customarily set forth by Ernst & Young in such letter with respect to such data; and (iii) They have performed certain specified procedures as a result of which they have determined that the information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature set forth in such Computational Materials and ABS Term Sheets agrees with the data sheet or computer tape prepared by each Mortgage Loan Seller, unless otherwise indicated in such letter. (h) The Underwriters shall have been furnished with all documents, certificates and opinions required to be delivered by each Mortgage Loan Seller in connection with its sale of Mortgage Loans to CCMS, pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The Underwriters shall be entitled to rely on each such certificate executed and delivered by a Mortgage Loan Seller or any of its officers and representatives, to the same extent that CCMS may so rely, and each such opinion addressed to CCMS shall also be addressed to the Underwriters or shall be accompanied by a letter signed by the counsel that rendered such opinion stating that the Underwriters may rely on such opinion as if it were addressed to them. 12 (i) The Mortgage Loan Sellers shall have sold the Mortgage Loans to CCMS, pursuant to the respective Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements. (j) Subsequent to the date hereof, there shall not have occurred any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the business or properties of CCMS that CGMI concludes, in its opinion after consultation with CCMS and the other Underwriters, materially impairs the investment quality of the Registered Certificates so as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Registered Certificates as contemplated by the Prospectus. (k) The Registered Certificates shall have been assigned ratings no less than those set forth on Schedule I and such ratings shall not have been rescinded or qualified. 7. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) Subject to Section 7(c), CCMS agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which it or any such officer, director or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any revision or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any other filing incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it or him in connection with investigating or defending any such expense, loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided that CCMS shall not be liable under the indemnity agreement in this Section 7(a) to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon: (i) any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement or in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any revision or amendment thereof or supplement thereto that was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written or electronic information furnished to CCMS by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for use in connection with the preparation thereof, as set forth in Section 7(b); (ii) any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any revision or amendment thereof or supplement thereto that (A) arose out of or was based upon an untrue statement, omission or other inaccuracy with respect to the Mortgage Loan Seller Matters (as defined below) contained in the Master Tape (also as defined below) (it being acknowledged that the Master Tape has been used to prepare, without limitation, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus Supplement and any Computational Materials and ABS Term Sheets (each as defined in Section 9) with respect to the Registered Certificates), (B) was made in reliance upon and conformity with (1) any of the representations and warranties made by a Mortgage Loan Seller contained in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or (2) any other information regarding the Mortgage Loan Seller Matters furnished by a Mortgage Loan Seller, electronically or in writing, 13 to CCMS or any Underwriter in connection with the preparation of any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets with respect to the Registered Certificates, or any revision or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or (C) is contained in the information regarding the Mortgage Loan Seller Matters set forth (1) in any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement under the headings "Summary of Prospectus Supplement - Relevant Parties - Mortgage Loan Sellers," "Summary of Prospectus Supplement--The Underlying Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Real Properties", "Risk Factors--Risks Related to the Underlying Mortgage Loans" and/or "Description of the Mortgage Pool", (2) on Annex A-1, Annex A-2, Annex A-3 and/or Annex B to any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement or (3) on the diskette accompanying any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement (provided that CCMS shall be liable to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon an error in the manipulation of, or any calculations based upon, or any aggregation (other than an aggregation made in the Master Tape by a Mortgage Loan Seller) of information concerning the Mortgage Loan Seller Matters); (iii) any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact that was made in any Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets provided by any Underwriter to prospective investors in connection with the sale of the Registered Certificates and incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus as a result of any filing pursuant to Section 5(e); or (iv) any breach, inaccuracy or untruth of any of the statements, representations, warranties and/or covenants made by any Underwriter pursuant to Section 9(b); and provided, further, that CCMS shall not be liable to any particular Underwriter or any person controlling such Underwriter under the indemnity agreement in this Section 7(a) for any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) that arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in any Preliminary Prospectus to the extent that such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) results from the fact that such Underwriter sold Registered Certificates to a person as to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the confirmation of such sale, a copy of the Prospectus (excluding documents incorporated therein by reference) and such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission had been corrected in the Prospectus, unless the Underwriter did not receive the Prospectus or such corrected and amended Prospectus prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Certificates to such person (despite the Underwriter's timely request for copies of the Prospectus or such corrected and amended Prospectus). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that CCMS may otherwise have. The "Mortgage Loan Seller Matters" consist of the following matters: the Mortgage Loans and the underlying real properties securing the Mortgage Loans; the related loan documents and the obligors thereunder; and the Mortgage Loan Sellers. The "Master Tape" is the compilation of underlying information and data regarding the Mortgage Loans covered by the independent accountants' reports on applying agreed upon procedures dated May 24, 2004 and June 8, 2004, as supplemented to the date of initial issuance of the Certificates, and rendered by Ernst & Young. (b) Subject to Section 7(c), each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless CCMS and each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the 14 Registration Statement or any amendments thereof, and each person who controls CCMS within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which it or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any revision or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, which untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written or electronic information furnished to CCMS by or on behalf of such Underwriter, specifically for use in connection with the preparation of any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any revision or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets prepared or developed by such Underwriter and provided by such Underwriter or any other Underwriter to prospective investors in connection with the sale of the Registered Certificates and incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or Prospectus as a result of any filing pursuant to Section 5(e), (iii) any omission or alleged omission to state in any Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets prepared or developed by such Underwriter and provided by such Underwriter or any other Underwriter to prospective investors in connection with the sale of the Registered Certificates and incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or Prospectus as a result of any filing pursuant to Section 5(e), a material fact that, when read in conjunction with any Preliminary Prospectus (or, if delivered on or after the date hereof or if there is no Preliminary Prospectus, when read in conjunction with the Prospectus), is required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iv) any material breach, inaccuracy or untruth on the part of such Underwriter of any of the statements, representations, warranties and/or covenants made pursuant to Section 9(b); provided that such Underwriter shall not be liable under the indemnity agreement in this Section 7(b) for any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) that arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission in any such Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets to the extent that such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) is covered by the indemnity agreement included in Section 7(a) of any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, in accordance with the terms thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnity in clause (ii) and clause (iii) above will apply only if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was not also an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission in the Prospectus, to which untrue statement, alleged untrue statement or omission in the indemnity agreement in Section 7(a) applies. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Underwriters may otherwise have. CCMS acknowledges that the statements set forth in the first and fourth sentences of the paragraph beginning "Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC, CDC Securities Inc. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.", and the entire following paragraph, on the cover page of the Prospectus Supplement, the subsection entitled "Summary of Prospectus Supplement--Relevant Parties--Underwriters" in the Prospectus Supplement, the last paragraph under the heading "Risk Factors--Risks Related to the Offered Certificates--Potential Conflicts of Interest May Affect the Underwriting and Servicing of the Underlying Mortgage Loans" in the Prospectus Supplement and the second paragraph, the third paragraph, the fourth paragraph 15 and the fifth paragraph under the heading "Method of Distribution" in the Prospectus Supplement, constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriters for inclusion in the Prospectus and Preliminary Prospectus or any revision or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and each Underwriter confirms that such statements attributable thereto are correct. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 7(a) or Section 7(b) above of notice of the commencement of any suit, action, proceeding (including, without limitation, any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under Section 7(a) or Section 7(b) above, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under Section 7(a) or Section 7(b); provided, however, that any increase in such liability under Section 7(a) or Section 7(b), as applicable, as a result of such failure to promptly notify shall not be an expense of the indemnifying party. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be additional or different legal defenses available to it that conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party for legal expenses of other counsel or other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel), representing the indemnified party or parties who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time period after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an indemnifying party shall not be liable under Section 7(a) or Section 7(b) for any settlement of any litigation, proceeding, action or claim effected without its consent unless (i) at any time an indemnified party shall have requested such indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel for which the indemnifying party is obligated under Section 7(a) or Section 7(b), as applicable, (ii) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and more than 15 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of written notice of the 16 proposed settlement and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of the indemnified party. (d) If the indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or Section 7(b) above is due in accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a court to be unavailable to any indemnified party on grounds of public policy or otherwise, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) to which such indemnified party may be subject and which were intended to be covered under such Section 7(a) or Section 7(b), as the case may be, as follows: (i) in the case of any such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in and intended to be covered under Section 7(a) above, in such proportion so that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the total underwriting discounts and/or fees received by the Underwriters bear to the sum of such discounts and/or fees received by the Underwriters and the total purchase price of the Registered Certificates specified in Schedule I hereto and CCMS is responsible for the balance (or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required in Section 7(c) or in the last paragraph of this Section 7(d), in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such financial considerations but also the factors referred to in the immediately following clause (ii)); provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Registered Certificates) be responsible under this clause (i) for more than the amount, if any, by which the underwriting discounts and fees applicable to the Registered Certificates purchased by such Underwriter hereunder exceeds any damages otherwise paid by such Underwriter with respect to the subject expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof); and (ii) in the case of any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in and intended to be covered under Section 7(b) above, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of CCMS on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission which resulted in such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact that is the basis for such expense, loss, claim, damage or 17 liability results from information prepared by CCMS on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. CCMS and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by per capita allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 7, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls CCMS within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of CCMS who shall have signed the Registration Statement or any amendments thereof and each director of CCMS shall have the same rights to contribution as CCMS. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this subsection (d), notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise than under this subsection (d). (e) The Underwriters further agree as follows: (i) Each Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless each of the other Underwriters against any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which any of those other Underwriters may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon (1) any untrue statements or misstatements of a material fact made in Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets prepared by the indemnifying Underwriter or (2) the indemnifying Underwriter's failure to comply with Section 9, and will reimburse each of the other Underwriters for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of those other Underwriters in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided that such Underwriter shall not be liable under the indemnity agreement in Section 7(e)(i)(1) for any expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) that arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission in any Computational Materials or ABS Term Sheets to the extent that such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) is covered by the indemnity agreement included in Section 7(a) of any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, in accordance with the terms thereof). (ii) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under clause (i) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such clause, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the 18 indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such clause; provided, however, that any increase in such liability as a result of such failure to promptly notify shall not be an expense of the indemnifying party. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under clause (i) above for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof unless (A) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the next sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) representing the indemnified party or parties who are parties to such action), (B) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time period after notice of commencement of the action or (C) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (A) or (C) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (A) or (C). If the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be additional or different legal defenses available to it that conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its consent. However, if any proceeding is settled with such consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party shall indemnify the indemnified party from and against any expense, loss, claim, damage or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an indemnifying party shall be liable to the same extent it otherwise would be under clause (i) above, for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (X) at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel for which the indemnifying party is obligated under clause (i) above, (Y) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and more than 15 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of written notice of the proposed settlement and (Z) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with 19 respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (B) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of the indemnified party. (iii) If the indemnification provided in clause (i) is due in accordance with its terms in respect of any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, but is for any reason held by a court to be unavailable on grounds of public policy or otherwise, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect both the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other, from the offering of the Registered Certificates, and the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements which resulted in such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and indemnified party on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion to the amount of Registered Certificates underwritten by each such party. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party on the one hand or the indemnified party on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this clause (iii) were determined by per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this clause (iii). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this clause (iii) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this clause (iii), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount pursuant to this clause (iii) in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Registered Certificates underwritten by it and distributed to the public, were sold (or, in the case of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., provided that it is not the indemnifying party, the amount of the underwriting discounts and fees received by it), exceeds the amount of any damages which such party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. (iv) The respective obligations of each of the Underwriters under clauses (i) through (iii) above shall be in addition to any liability which each may otherwise have and 20 shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. (f) The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in any subsection of this Section 7 shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim (except where the indemnified party is required to bear such expenses pursuant to this Agreement), which expenses the indemnifying party shall pay as and when incurred, at the request of the indemnified party, to the extent that it is reasonable to believe that the indemnifying party will be ultimately obligated to pay such expenses. If any expenses so paid by an indemnifying party are subsequently determined not to be required to be borne by such indemnifying party hereunder, the indemnified party that received such payment shall promptly refund the amount so paid to such indemnifying party. 8. FEES AND EXPENSES. Except as provided in any other particular Section hereof, each Underwriter shall be responsible only for the costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, the costs of any counsel retained thereby) actually incurred by such Underwriter in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and otherwise, the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions herein contemplated shall be payable by the Mortgage Loan Sellers, as and to the extent provided in the respective Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, or by CCMS. 9. COMPUTATIONAL MATERIALS AND ABS TERM SHEETS. (a) Not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on the date hereof, each Underwriter shall deliver to CCMS two (2) complete copies of all materials provided by such Underwriter to prospective investors in the Registered Certificates that constitute either (i) "Computational Materials" within the meaning of the no-action letter dated May 20, 1994 issued by the Division of Corporation Finance of the Commission to Kidder, Peabody Acceptance Corporation I, Kidder, Peabody & Co.

DEFAULT BY AN UNDERWRITER. If any Underwriter shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Registered Certificates agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated (in proportion to their respective allocations set forth in Schedule I) to take up and pay for the Registered Certificates that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the purchase price of the Registered Certificates that the defaulting Underwriter or 25 Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate purchase price of the Registered Certificates, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Registered Certificates, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all of the Registered Certificates, this Agreement will terminate without liability to the nondefaulting Underwriters or CCMS. In the event of a default by an Underwriter as set forth in this Section 11, the Closing Date for the Registered Certificates shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding ten (10) days, as the nondefaulting Underwriters shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected.

The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of CCMS, the Underwriters and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters, CCMS or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Registered Certificates. The provisions of Sections 7 and 9 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement. 13. BENEFICIARIES.
