The Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement relating to the Underwritten Securities in the form to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 are hereinafter together called the “Preliminary Prospectus,” and the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Underwritten Securities in the form to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 are hereinafter together called the “Final Prospectus.” Each of the Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus is referred to herein as a “Prospectus.” References made herein to a Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act as of the date of such Prospectus, and any reference to any amendment or supplement to the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any document filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) after the date of the Final Prospectus and incorporated by reference in the Final Prospectus, and any reference to any amendment to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to include any report of the Depositor filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the effective date that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(i) There shall not have occurred any development that has caused a material adverse change in the financial condition or business operations of the Seller or the Depositor, which adverse change makes it impractical or inadvisable to market the Underwritten Securities.

If this Agreement is terminated because of a breach by the Depositor or the Seller of any covenant or agreement hereunder (other than the failure of the closing condition set forth in Section 6(h) to be met), the Depositor and the Seller shall cause the Underwriters to be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters.

SECTION 8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Each of the Seller and the Depositor indemnifies and holds harmless each Underwriter, each Underwriter’s respective officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, as follows:

(i) against any and all losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter, its officers, directors or such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof, including but not limited to any loss, claim, expense, damage or liability related to purchases and sales of the Underwritten Securities) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, either Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to any of them, the Designated Static Pool Information or the Issuer Information, 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 made therein not misleading; and will reimburse each Underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter or such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Seller and the Depositor shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission, or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in any of such documents (x) in reliance upon and in conformity with any Underwriters’ Information; or (y) in any Derived Information in any Free Writing Prospectus, except in the case of clause (y) to the extent that any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission therein results from an error or material omission in the information either in either Prospectus for which the Depositor or the Seller is responsible or concerning the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans furnished by the Seller to the Underwriters for use in the preparation of any Free Writing Prospectus (any such information, the “Pool Information”); provided, further, that no indemnity shall be provided by either the Depositor or the Seller for any error in the Pool Information that was superseded or corrected by the delivery to the Underwriters of corrected written or electronic information a reasonable amount of time prior to the confirmation of the sale of the applicable Securities and the Underwriters failed to provide the corrected information in written or electronic form, or for which the Seller or the Depositor provided written notice of such error to the Underwriters prior to dissemination by the Underwriters of the Pool Information and the Underwriters disseminated such uncorrected Pool Information (in each case, any such uncorrected Pool Information, a “Pool Error”); and provided, further, that the Seller and the Depositor shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, expense, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an omission to include in the Preliminary Prospectus pricing and price-dependent information included in the Final Prospectus;

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Depositor or the Seller; and

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by any such Underwriter), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing to defend or defending against any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under clause (i) or clause (ii) above.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Depositor may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Seller and the Depositor, each of their partners or managers, each of their officers and each person, if any, who controls the Seller or the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities to which the Seller or the Depositor or any such partner, manager, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (i) any Derived Information or Custom Loan Information disseminated by such Underwriter, (ii) any information, other than Derived Information, Custom Loan Information, Issuer Information or any Prospectus, disseminated by such Underwriter and (iii) the Registration Statement, either Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading, but with respect to clauses (b)(i) and (ii) above, only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission does not result from an error or material omission in the Pool Information (other than a Pool Error), and with respect to clause (b)(iii) above, only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriters’ Information of such Underwriter; and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Seller, the Depositor or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any such loss, claim, expense, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that such Underwriter may otherwise have.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action described therein, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party of the claim or commencement of the action; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. In case any such claim or action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may wish to do so, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action and the appointment of counsel as provided under this Section 8, such indemnifying party shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

Any indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless: (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying party in writing; (ii) such indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such indemnified party to employ separate counsel; (iii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party); or (iv) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, it being understood, however, the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to local counsel) at any time for all such indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in writing by the related Underwriter, if the indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of one Underwriter or any of its controlling persons, by the Representative, if the indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of more than one Underwriter or their controlling persons or the Depositor or the Seller, if the indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of the Depositor or any of the Depositor’s directors, officers or controlling persons or the Seller or any of the Seller’s directors, officers or controlling persons.

No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability (to the extent set forth in Section 8(a) or Section 8(b) as applicable) by reason of such settlement or judgment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Depositor or the Seller on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Underwritten Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Depositor or the Seller on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Depositor or the Seller on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Underwritten Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Depositor or the Seller bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. 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 Depositor or the Seller or by the Representative on behalf of the several Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to above in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter. 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. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

SECTION 9. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or contained in certificates of officers of the Depositor or the Seller submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or controlling persons thereof, or by or on behalf of the Depositor or the Seller, and shall survive delivery of any Securities to the Underwriters.

SECTION 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters participating in the public offering of the Underwritten Securities shall fail at the Closing Date to purchase the Underwritten Securities that it is (or they are) obligated to purchase hereunder (the “Defaulted Securities”), then the non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth. If, however, the non-defaulting Underwriters have not completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then

(a) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Underwritten Securities to be purchased pursuant to this Agreement, the non-defaulting Underwriters named in this Agreement shall be obligated to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all such non-defaulting Underwriters; or

(b) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Underwritten Securities to be purchased pursuant to this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate, without any liability on the part of the Depositor or any non-defaulting Underwriters.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from the liability with respect to any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 10, each of the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Depositor shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding five Business Days in order that any required changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected.

SECTION 11. Termination of Agreement. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement immediately upon notice to the Depositor, at any time at or prior to the Closing Date if the events set forth in Section 6(h) of this Agreement shall occur and be continuing, or if any other closing condition set forth in Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when required to be fulfilled. In the event of any such termination, the provisions of Section 7, Section 8, Section 9, Section 14 and Section 16 shall remain in effect.

SECTION 12. Notices. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

(a) if to the Underwriters, shall be delivered or sent to the Representative by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., 270 Park Avenue, 10^th Floor, New York, New York 10017, Facsimile (212) 723-8604, Attention: Stanley Labanowski;

This Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof are for the sole benefit of only those persons, except that the representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements contained in this Agreement shall also be deemed to be for the benefit of the person or persons, if any, who control any of the Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and for the benefit of each Underwriter’s respective officers and directors and for the benefit of directors of the Seller and the Depositor, officers of the Depositor who have signed the Registration Statement and any person controlling the Seller and the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, other than the persons referred to in this Section 13, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

SECTION 14. Survival. The respective indemnities, representations, warranties and agreements of the Depositor, the Seller and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement, or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Underwritten Securities and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any of them or any person controlling any of them.

SECTION 15. Definition of the Term “Business Day.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” means any day on which the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. is open for trading.

SECTION 16. Governing Law: Submission to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

The parties hereto hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and any court in the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action, suit or proceeding brought against it or in connection with this Agreement or any of the related documents or the transactions contemplated hereunder or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and the parties hereto hereby agree that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard or determined in New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court.

SECTION 17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and, if executed in more than one counterpart, the executed counterparts shall each be deemed to be an original but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

SECTION 18. Headings. The headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement.

SECTION 19. No Fiduciary Duty. The Depositor and the Seller hereby acknowledge that (a) the Underwriters are acting as principal and not as an agent or fiduciary of the Depositor and the Seller and (b) their engagement of the Underwriters in connection with the Offering is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, each of Depositor and the Seller agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the Offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Depositor or the Seller on related or other matters).

The asset-backed securities referred to in these materials are being offered when, as and if issued. In particular, asset-backed securities and the asset pools backing them are subject to modification or revision (including, among other things, the possibility that one or more classes of securities may be split, combined or eliminated) at any time prior to issuance. As a result, you may commit to purchase securities with characteristics that may change materially, and all or a portion of the securities may not be issued with material characteristics described in these materials. Our obligation to sell securities to you is conditioned on those securities having the material characteristics described in these materials. If that condition is not satisfied, we will notify you, and neither the issuer nor any underwriter will have any obligation to you to deliver all or any portion of the securities you committed to purchase, and there will be no liability between us as a consequence of the non-delivery. However, unless the class of securities you committed to purchase has been eliminated, we will provide you with revised offering materials and offer you an opportunity to purchase that class, as described in the revised offering materials. To indicate your interest in purchasing the class you must affirmatively communicate to us your desire to do so within _____ days after receipt of the revised offering materials, but in no event later than the business day before the date the securities are issued.

The following additional legend may appear on any Free Writing Prospectus disseminated prior to time of contract of sale:

The information in this free writing prospectus may reflect parameters, metrics or scenarios specifically requested by you.
