Ladies and Gentlemen:

Long Beach Acceptance Receivables Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Transferor”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Long Beach Acceptance Corp., a Delaware corporation (“LBAC”), proposes to cause Long Beach Acceptance Auto Receivables Trust 2007-A, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”), to sell to the Underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (the “Underwriters”), for which Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. (“RBS GC”) is acting as representative (the “Representative”), 5.335% Asset-Backed Notes, Class A-1, in the original principal amount of $100,000,000 (the “Class A-1 Notes”), 5.150% Asset-Backed Notes, Class A-2, in the original principal amount of $145,000,000 (the “Class A-2 Notes”), 4.972% Asset-Backed Notes, Class A-3, in the original principal amount of $98,000,000 (the “Class A-3 Notes”) and 5.025% Asset-Backed Notes, Class A-4, in the original principal amount of $143,000,000 (the “Class A-4 Notes” and, together with the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes and the Class A-3 Notes, the “Offered Notes”).

The assets of the Trust will include primarily a pool (the “Pool”) of retail installment sale contracts (the “Receivables”) secured by the new and used automobiles, vans, sport utility vehicles and light duty trucks financed thereby. The Receivables will be serviced for the Trust by LBAC. The Offered Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 1, 2007 (the “Indenture”), between the Trust and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association (“▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo”), as indenture trustee (in such capacity, the “Indenture Trustee”). The Offered Notes will be secured by the assets of the Trust, which will be pledged by the Trust to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Holders of the Offered Notes will have the benefit of a financial guarantee insurance policy issued by Financial Security Assurance Inc. (“FSA”). In addition, simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Offered Notes, the Trust will also issue two classes of certificates (the “Certificates”) in the manner set forth in the Trust Agreement described below. The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2007 (the “Trust Agreement”), between the Transferor and Wilmington Trust Company, as owner trustee (in such capacity, the “Owner Trustee”). Only the Offered Notes are being purchased by the several Underwriters hereunder. The Certificates will be issued to the Transferor. The Class R Certificate will be retained by the Transferor and the Class C Certificate will be sold by the Transferor to RBS GC or an affiliate thereof. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in Annex A to the Sale and Servicing Agreement (as defined herein).

The Offered Notes are more fully described in a Registration Statement (as defined herein) which the Transferor and LBAC have furnished to the Underwriters.

The Trust will acquire the Initial Receivables from the Transferor pursuant to a Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2007 (the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”), among the Trust, the Transferor, LBAC, as originator and servicer, and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, as back-up servicer and trust collateral agent. The Transferor will acquire the Initial Receivables from LBAC and Long Beach Acceptance Receivables Corp. Warehouse I, a Delaware corporation (“LBARCWI”) pursuant to the assignment by each of LBAC and LBARCWI to the Transferor (the “Initial Assignments”) on the Closing Date (as defined herein) and a Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2007 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Transferor, LBARCWI and LBAC.

From time to time during the Funding Period pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, LBAC and LBARCWI will be obligated to sell, and the Transferor will be obligated to purchase, additional retail installment sale contracts (the “Subsequent Receivables”) secured by the new and used automobiles, vans, sport utility vehicles and light duty trucks financed thereby, which Subsequent Receivables will be described in the schedules to one or more assignments by each of LBAC and LBARCWI to the Transferor (each, a “Subsequent Assignment”), dated as of the cut-off date specified therein (such date, a “Subsequent Cut-off Date”). The Subsequent Receivables will in turn be sold by the Transferor to the Trust pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and one or more agreements among LBAC, LBARCWI, the Transferor, the Trust and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo (each, a “Transfer Agreement” and each date of transfer, a “Subsequent Transfer Date”), each dated as of the related Subsequent Cut-off Date. The maximum aggregate principal amount of Subsequent Receivables to be sold to the Trust during the Funding Period is $78,536,059.

At or prior to the time when sales to purchasers of the Offered Notes were first made by the Underwriters, which was approximately 3:13p.m. on March 13, 2007 (the “Time of Sale”), the Transferor has prepared the following information (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”): (i) the Free Writing Prospectus dated March 12, 2007 (the “Summary FWP”), and (ii) the Free Writing Prospectus dated March 12, 2007, including the prospectus dated March 31, 2006 and the information referred to under the caption “Sponsor’s Static Pool Information” therein (the “Time of Sale FWP”). If, at or subsequent to the Time of Sale and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), such information included an untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and as a result investors in the Offered Notes may terminate their old “Contracts of Sale” (within the meaning of Rule 159 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) for any Offered Notes and the Underwriters enter into new Contracts of Sale with investors in the Offered Notes, then “Time of Sale Information” will refer to the information conveyed to investors at the time of entry into the first such new Contract of Sale, in an amended Time of Sale FWP or a final Prospectus (as defined below) approved by the Transferor and the Representative that corrects such material misstatements or omissions (a “Corrected Prospectus”) and “Time of Sale” will refer to the time and date on which such new Contracts of Sale were first entered into.

Section I. Representations and Warranties of Transferor and LBAC. The Transferor and LBAC jointly and severally represent and warrant to, and agree with the several Underwriters that:

A. A Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-132202) relating to automobile contract-backed securities, including the Offered Notes, has (i) been prepared by LBAC in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder (the “Rules and Regulations”), (ii) been filed by the Transferor with the Commission under the Securities Act and (iii) become effective under the Securities Act and is still effective as of the date hereof. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued by the Commission and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Transferor or LBAC, threatened by the Commission. Copies of such Registration Statement have been delivered by the Transferor and LBAC to the Underwriters. “Registration Statement” means such registration statement, at the date and time as of which such registration statement, or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto, if any, was declared effective by the Commission, including any exhibits thereto and any documents incorporated by reference therein at such time. The Depositor proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations a prospectus supplement dated March 19, 2007 (together with information referred to under the caption “Sponsor’s Static Pool Information” therein regardless of whether it is deemed a part of the Registration Statement or Prospectus, the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the prospectus dated March 31, 2006 (the “Base Prospectus”), relating to the Offered Notes and the method of distribution thereof. “Prospectus” means the Base Prospectus, as amended or supplemented to the date hereof, as further supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement. Reference made herein to the 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 the Prospectus, and any reference to any amendment or supplement to the 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 Prospectus and incorporated by reference in the Prospectus; and any reference to any amendment to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to include any report filed with the Commission with respect to the Trust pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date of the Prospectus that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. There are no contracts or documents of the Transferor or LBAC which are required to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement pursuant to the Securities Act or the Rules and Regulations which have not been so filed or incorporated by reference therein on or prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. The conditions for use of Form S-3, as set forth in the General Instructions thereto, have been satisfied.

B. The Registration Statement complied, as of the effective date thereof, and any post-effective amendment thereto, at the time it became effective, and the Prospectus, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, and any further amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus will, when they become effective or are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, comply in all respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The Registration Statement, as of the applicable effective date as to each part of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) and any amendment thereto, did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Time of Sale FWP, as of its date and as of the Time of Sale, did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Prospectus, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and as of the Closing Date, does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale FWP or the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriters Information (as defined herein).

C. The documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and none of such documents contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, when such documents become effective or are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriters Information.

D. The Time of Sale Information, at the Time of Sale, did not, and at the Closing Date will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the Time of Sale Information in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriters Information. Other than the Summary FWP, the Time of Sale FWP and the Prospectus, the Transferor (including its agents and representatives other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such) has not prepared or authorized, and will not prepare or authorize any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation or an offer to buy the Offered Notes other than the documents, if any, listed under “Time of Sale Information” in Schedule I hereto and other written communication approved by the Representative. Each Free Writing Prospectus (as defined herein) complied in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations, and has been filed in accordance with Section VI (to the extent required by Rule 433 under the Act).

E.

LBAC and the Transferor, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of the Offered Notes), to which such Underwriter or any such controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon: (a)(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Summary FWP (when read together with the Time of Sale FWP), the Time of Sale FWP or the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in the Issuer Information or (ii) 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 case of Issuer Information, when considered together with the Time of Sale FWP), in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter and each such controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter or such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that neither LBAC nor the Transferor shall be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made (i) in the the Time of Sale FWP (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) or the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereof) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to either LBAC or the Transferor by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representative specifically for inclusion therein, (ii) to the extent that such misstatement or omission was corrected reasonably prior to the initial Time of Sale and such Underwriter did not deliver, prior to the initial Time of Sale, a copy of the Time of Sale Information as then revised, amended or supplemented, if either LBAC or the Transferor has previously furnished copies thereof reasonably prior to the initial Time of Sale to such Underwriter in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (iii) in the Derived Information that does not arise out of or is not based upon an error or material omission in the information contained in the Time of Sale Information, in the Prospectus, in the Registration Statement or in the Issuer Information; or (b) the breach of any representation or warranty by the Transferor, LBARCWI or LBAC in this Agreement or any Other Agreement to which it is a party, or in any document executed in connection herewith or therewith or which is related to or arises out of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and the Transferor and LBAC will jointly and severally reimburse each Underwriter and any other indemnified party for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Underwriter or such indemnified party (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred by such Underwriter or such other indemnified party in any action or proceeding between such Underwriter or such indemnified party and LBAC, the Transferor and/or any third party, or otherwise), as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which LBAC and the Transferor may otherwise have to any Underwriter or any controlling person of such Underwriter.

B. Each Underwriter severally, and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless LBAC and the Transferor, each of their respective directors, each of their respective officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls LBAC or the Transferor, respectively, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, to which LBAC, the Transferor or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale FWP or the Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in the Derived Information or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriters Information supplied by such Underwriter, other than a misstatement or omission arising from a misstatement or omission in the Issuer Information, and shall reimburse LBAC, the Transferor and any such director, officer or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by LBAC, the Transferor or any director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which each Underwriter may otherwise have to LBAC, the Transferor or any such director, officer or controlling person.

C. Promptly after receipt by any indemnified party under this Section VIII of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section VIII notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section VIII except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that the failure to notify any indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section VIII.

If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section VIII for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the 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) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; 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 Representative, if the indemnified parties under this Section VIII consist of any Underwriter or any of such Underwriter’s controlling persons, or by LBAC or the Transferor, if the indemnified parties under this Section VIII consist of LBAC or the Transferor or any of LBAC’s or the Transferor’s respective directors, officers or controlling persons.

Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Section VIII(A) and (B), shall use its best 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), 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 by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the 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 (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 in connection therewith.

Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, 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 60 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 this Section VIII shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section VIII(A) or (B), in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof (a) if such loss, claim, damage or liability does not arise from the Underwriters Information supplied by such Underwriter, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by LBAC, LBARCWI and the Transferor on the one hand and such Underwriter on the other from the offering of the Offered Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under Section VIII(C), 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 LBAC, LBARCWI and the Transferor on the one hand and such Underwriter on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted if such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations and (b) if such loss, claim, damage or liability arises from Underwriters Information supplied by such Underwriter, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by LBAC, LBARCWI and the Transferor on the one hand and such Underwriter on the other from the offering of the Offered Notes and the relative fault of LBAC, LBARCWI and the Transferor on the one hand and such Underwriter on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claims, damages or liability, or actions in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable consideration.

The relative benefits of any Underwriter on the one hand and LBAC, LBARCWI and the Transferor on the other hand shall be deemed to be in such proportions that such Underwriter is responsible for that portion of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses equal to the product of the underwriting discount percentage set forth on the cover of the Prospectus as amended or supplemented multiplied by the initial public offering price of the Offered Notes underwritten by such Underwriter as set forth thereon, and LBAC and the Transferor shall be jointly and severally responsible for the balance.

The relative fault of any Underwriter on the one hand and LBAC, LBARCWI and the Transferor on the other hand shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by LBAC, LBARCWI, the Transferor or by such Underwriter, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission and other equitable considerations.

LBAC, the Transferor and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section VIII(E) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section VIII(E) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section VIII(E), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.

In no case shall any Underwriter be responsible, in the aggregate, for any amount in excess of (x) the amount received by such Underwriter in connection with its resale of the Offered Notes over (y) the amount paid by such Underwriter to the Transferor for the Offered Notes hereunder. 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.

F. The several Underwriters hereby confirm, and each of the Transferor and LBAC hereby acknowledge, that the information set forth (i) in the first and second paragraphs, the last sentence of the penultimate paragraph and the last paragraph under the caption “Method of Distribution” in the Prospectus Supplement and (ii) the Derived Information (collectively, the “Underwriters Information”) constitutes the only information furnished in writing to LBAC and the Transferor by or on behalf of the Underwriters through the Representative specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

Section IX. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or contained in certificates of officers of LBAC, LBARCWI and the Transferor 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 LBAC, LBARCWI or the Transferor or controlling persons thereof and shall survive delivery of any Offered Notes to the Representative.

Section X. Termination of Agreement; Default of the Underwriters. The Representative may terminate this Agreement immediately upon notice to LBAC and the Transferor, at any time at or prior to the Closing Date if any of the events or conditions described in Section VII(W) of this Agreement shall occur and be continuing. In the event of any such termination, the provisions of Section V(G), the indemnity and contribution agreement set forth in Section VIII, and the provisions of Sections IX and XIII shall remain in effect.

If any Underwriter participating in the offering of the Offered Notes defaults in its obligation hereunder to purchase the aggregate amounts of the Offered Notes set forth in Schedule I hereto and the aggregate principal amount of such Offered Notes that such defaulting Underwriter agreed, but failed, to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total original principal amount of the Offered Notes, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Transferor and LBAC for the purchase of such Offered Notes by other Persons, but if no such arrangements are made within a period of 36 hours after the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriter shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the Offered Notes which such defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase. If any Underwriter so defaults and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes with respect to which such default occurs is more than 10% of the total original principal amount of the Offered Notes and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative, the Transferor and LBAC for the purchase of such Offered Notes by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriter, the Transferor or LBAC. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for any Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

Section XI. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representative will be mailed, delivered or transmitted by facsimile and confirmed to it at Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: Asset-Backed Finance, Fax: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇; or, if sent to the Transferor or LBAC will be mailed, delivered or transmitted by facsimile and confirmed to it at Long Beach Acceptance Corp., ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: General Counsel, Fax: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇.

Section XII. Persons Entitled to the Benefit of this Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, LBAC and the Transferor, and their respective successors. 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 Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and for the benefit of directors of LBAC or the Transferor, officers of LBAC or the Transferor who have signed the Registration Statement and any person controlling LBAC or the Transferor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, other than the persons referred to in this Section XII, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

Section XIII. Role of Underwriters. Each of the Transferor and LBAC hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Representative and the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm's length contractual counterparty to the Transferor and LBAC with respect to the offering of the Offered Notes contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Transferor, LBAC, LBARCWI, or any person. Additionally, neither the Representative nor any other Underwriter is advising the Transferor, LBAC, LBARCWI, or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Transferor and LBAC each hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Transferor, LBAC and LBARCWI shall each consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither Representative nor any Underwriter shall have any responsibility or liability to the Transferor, LBAC or LBARCWI with respect thereto. Any review by the Representative or any Underwriter of the Transferor, LBAC, LBARCWI, the Receivables, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Representative and the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Transferor, LBAC or LBARCWI.

Section XIV. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

Section XV. 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 XVI. 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.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to us a counterpart hereof, whereupon this letter and your acceptance shall represent a binding agreement between you, the Transferor and LBAC.

Very truly yours,
