(o) If any of the conditions specified in this Section 8 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement, if the Company is in breach of any covenants or agreements contained herein or if any of the opinions and certificates referred to above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Underwriter and the Underwriter’s counsel, this Agreement and all the obligations of the Underwriter hereunder may be canceled by the Underwriter at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing, or by telephone or facsimile transmission confirmed in writing.

9. Indemnification and Contribution. The Company agrees with the Underwriter that:

(a) The Company indemnifies and holds harmless the Underwriter, the Underwriter’s officers and directors, and each Person who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Underwriter may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, or other federal or state law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (x) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or in any amendment thereof, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (y) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Base Prospectus, the Pricing Free Writing Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Base Prospectus, the Pricing Free Writing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement to any of them, or the Issuer Information, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Underwriter, the Underwriter’s respective officers and directors and each 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 Company 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 untrue statement or omission, or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in any of such documents (x) under the heading “Yield, Prepayment and Maturity Considerations—Weighted Average Lives,” the tables regarding assumed mortgage loan characteristics and the tables entitled “Percent of Original Certificate Principal Balance Outstanding” (collectively, the “Excluded Information”); (y) in reliance upon and in conformity with any Underwriter’s Information or (z) in any Derived Information in any Free Writing Prospectus, except in the case of clause (x) or (z) to the extent that any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or alleged omission therein results (or is alleged to have resulted) from an error or material omission in the information in the Pricing Free Writing Prospectus or the Final Prospectus for which the Company is responsible or concerning the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans furnished by the Seller or the Company, as applicable, to the Underwriter for use in the preparation of any Excluded Information in any Free Writing Prospectus (any such information, the “Pool Information”), which error was not superseded or corrected by the delivery to the Underwriter of corrected written or electronic information, or for which the Company did not provide timely written notice of such error to the Underwriter (any such uncorrected Pool information, a “Pool Error”); and, provided further that the Company 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 Pricing Free Writing Prospectus information included in the Final Prospectus.

(b) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Underwriter, but only if any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter’s Information of the Underwriter except to the extent that such misstatement or omission arises from a misstatement or omission in the Company Provided Information. This indemnity will be in addition to any liability that the Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company and the Underwriter each acknowledge that (i) the term Underwriter’s Information shall mean the last paragraph on the cover page of the Prospectus Supplement and the first paragraph (including the table following such paragraph) and the first sentence of the second paragraph under the heading “Method of Distribution” in the Prospectus Supplement and (ii) Underwriter’s Information constitutes the only information furnished in writing by the Underwriter for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity, and the Underwriter confirms that its Underwriter’s Information is correct.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9. 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 to the extent that it 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 satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or them and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or there is a conflict or potential conflict 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), the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to elect 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 for any legal or other expenses 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 immediately 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 local counsel, approved by the Underwriter in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 9), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time 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 only be in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii). Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Section 9(a) and (b), shall use its reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. 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, conditioned or delayed) 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 9(a) or (b) as applicable) by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under this Section 9, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) above, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other from the offering of the Offered Certificates. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Underwriter shall be equal to its aggregate discount and underwriting commissions with respect to the Offered Certificates purchased by it as set forth on Schedule I hereto, and the relative benefits of the Company shall be equal to the balance of the proceeds of the sale of the Offered Certificates. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the claims (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total amount of underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter with respect to the related Offered Certificates (which amounts are set forth in Schedule I hereto) exceeds the amount of damages which the Underwriter would have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 9, a Person, if any, that controls the Underwriter within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as does the Underwriter and each director of the Underwriter and each officer of the Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriter, and each Person, if any, that controls the Company within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. 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 paragraph (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 paragraph (d).

10. Termination. (a) This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the Underwriter’s absolute discretion, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Offered Certificates, if, prior to such time, (i) trading of securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange or the over the counter market shall have been suspended or materially limited, (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York shall have been declared by either federal or New York State authorities, (iii) there shall have occurred any material outbreak or declaration of hostilities or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in either Underwriter’s reasonable judgment, impracticable to market the Offered Certificates on the terms specified herein or (iv) if any other closing condition set forth in Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when required to be fulfilled.

(b) If the sale of the Offered Certificates shall not be consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriter set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of the default of the Underwriter, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriter for the reasonable fees and expenses of the Underwriter’s counsel and for such other out-of-pocket expenses as shall have been incurred by the Underwriter in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Offered Certificates, and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount thereof to the Underwriter.

(c) This Agreement will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Certificates. The provisions of Section 7 and this Section 8(c) shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any of the Underwriter or any persons controlling it.

11. [Reserved.]

13. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. Each of the Company and the Underwriter acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Offered Certificates pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Offered Certificates and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Underwriter, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, and the Company and the Underwriter are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction the Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary of the Company, the Underwriter or their respective affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) the Underwriter has not assumed or will not assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Underwriter with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Underwriter on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company or the Underwriter except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the Underwriter and its respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Underwriter and that the Underwriter has no obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Underwriter has not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company and the Underwriter have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the Underwriter, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Company and the Underwriter hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company and the Underwriter may have against the Underwriter with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

14. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling Persons referred to in Section 7, and their successors and assigns, and no other Person will have any right or obligation hereunder except that the representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements contained in this Agreement also shall be deemed to be for the benefit of the Person or Persons, if any, who control the Underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act and for the benefit of the Underwriter’s officers and directors.

15. Applicable Law; Counterparts. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original and all of which shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

16. Minimum Investment Amounts. The Underwriter shall offer the Certificates in minimum denominations of $25,000, provided that the Certificates must be purchased in minimum total investments of $100,000.

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.
