individually, as a "Mortgage Loan Seller" and, together, as the "Mortgage Loan
Sellers".
Although the CWCapital Mortgage Loans were sold to the Trust Fund by
CWCMSI and CWCMSVI all references to Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such
Mortgage Loans will be deemed to refer to CWCapital LLC. Prior to this
securitization, such Mortgage Loans were originated and closed by CWCapital LLC
and subsequently sold by CWCapital LLC to CWCMSI and CWCMSVI.
Two separate real estate mortgage investment conduit ("REMIC")
elections will be made with respect to certain portions of the Trust Fund for
federal income tax purposes. The Offered Certificates and the Mortgage Pool are
described more fully in Schedule I hereto and in a registration statement
furnished to you by the Company.
Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have
the respective meanings assigned to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
1. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and
warrants to, and agrees with, the Underwriters that:
(a) The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") a registration statement (No. 333-140740) on Form
S-3 for registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
of mortgage pass-through certificates, including the Offered Certificates, which
registration statement has become effective or has been deemed effective
pursuant to Rule 430B, and copies of which, as amended to the date hereof, have
heretofore been delivered to you. The Company meets the requirements for use of
Form S-3 under the 1933 Act, and such registration statement meets the
requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1) under the Act and complies in all other
material respects with such rule. The Company proposes to file with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act a supplement, dated July 20, 2007,
to the prospectus, dated March 2, 2007, relating to the Offered Certificates and
the method of distribution thereof and has previously advised you of all further
information (financial and other) with respect to the Offered Certificates set
forth therein. Such registration statement, including the exhibits thereto and
any information incorporated therein by reference, as amended on the date hereof
is hereinafter called the "Registration Statement"; such prospectus, in the form
in which it will be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the
Act, is hereinafter called the "Base Prospectus"; such supplement to the Base
Prospectus, in the form in which it will be filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424 of the Act, is hereinafter called the "Prospectus Supplement"; and
the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement together are hereinafter
called the "Prospectus". The Company shall make a good faith and reasonable
effort to file the Prospectus within the time required under Rule 424 of the Act
and, in the event that the Company fails to timely file the Prospectus, the
Company shall file the Prospectus as soon as practicable thereafter. The Company
will not, without your prior consent, file any other amendment to the
Registration Statement or make any change in the Base Prospectus or the
Prospectus Supplement until after the period during which a prospectus is
required to be delivered to purchasers of the Offered Certificates under the Act
(the "Prospectus Delivery Period"). The Company will file with the Commission
within fifteen days of the issuance of the Offered Certificates a report on Form
8-K setting forth specific information concerning the Offered Certificates (the
"Form 8-K").

Offered Certificates were first made in accordance with Rule 159 of the Act,

First Bloomberg and any additional Disclosure Information (as defined in Section
9 below) delivered to the investors prior to the Time of Sale is collectively
referred to as the "Time of Sale Information." If, subsequent to the date of
this Agreement, the Company or the Underwriters determine that, as to the
investors in one or more Classes of the Offered Certificates, such initial Time
of Sale Information includes an untrue statement of material fact or omits to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the
Underwriters terminate their old purchase contracts and enter into new purchase
contracts with investors in such Classes of the Offered Certificates, then "Time
of Sale Information" shall refer to all of the information conveyed to investors
at the time of entry into the new purchase contract (each, a "Subsequent Time of
Sale"), including any information that corrects such material misstatements or
omissions ("Corrective Information"). The Preliminary FWP and the First
Bloomberg are the only Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses (as defined in Section 9
below) prepared by or on behalf of the Company as of the date hereof.
(c) As of the date hereof, when the Registration Statement became
effective, as of the Time of Sale, when the Prospectus Supplement is first filed

with the Commission, and on the Closing Date, (i) the Registration Statement, as

Time of Sale, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however,

Underwriter Supplied Information (as defined in Section 8(b) below), (B) the
Mortgage Loan Sellers' Information (as defined in Section 8(a) below) or (C) the

Issuer Information was so provided, and does not, as of the date of this
Agreement, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be in breach of this representation if the Company
provided Issuer Information to the Underwriters, correcting such untrue
statement or omission of a material fact contained in previously delivered
Issuer Information, so long as the Company delivered the corrected information
to the Underwriter at a reasonable time prior to the date hereof.
(d) The Company is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing,
qualified to do business and in good standing under the laws of the State of

by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for
that purpose or (iii) any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification of the Offered Certificates for sale in any jurisdiction or the
initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.
(f) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company will have entered
into the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Purchase

creditors generally, (ii) general principles of equity, whether enforcement is
sought in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (iii) public policy
considerations underlying the securities laws, to the extent that such public
policy considerations limit the enforceability of any provisions of this
Agreement that purport to provide indemnification from securities law

contained in each of (A) the Prospectus, (B) the initial Time of Sale

will be true and correct.
(i) Neither the issuance and sale of the Offered Certificates, nor

fulfillment of any of the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this
Agreement, will result in the breach of any term or provision of the certificate
of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or conflict with, result in a
material breach, violation or acceleration of or constitute a default under, the
terms of any indenture or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or
any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound, or any statute,
order or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any
court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having
jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Neither the Company
nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to, bound by or in breach or violation of
any indenture or other agreement or instrument, or subject to or in violation of
any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative
agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it, which materially and
adversely affects the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under
each of this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(j) There are no actions or proceedings against, or investigations

Certificates, (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Offered Certificates
or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (iii) which might materially and adversely
affect the performance by the Company of its obligations under, or the validity
or enforceability of, this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the
Offered Certificates or (iv) seeking to affect adversely the federal income tax
attributes of the Offered Certificates described in the Prospectus.
(k) There has not been any material adverse change in the business,

with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement (other than income taxes, franchise taxes and recording
and filing fees) and the execution, delivery and sale of the Offered
Certificates have been or will be paid on or prior to the Closing Date.
(m) Immediately prior to the assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the
Trustee, the Company will have good title to, and will be the sole owner of,
each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any pledge, mortgage, lien, security
interest or other encumbrance of any other person, except for any retained
servicing.

registration with, any court or governmental authority or agency is necessary in
connection with the offering, issuance or sale of the Offered Certificates
hereunder or the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Agreement, except such as have been, or
as of the Closing Date will have been, obtained or completed, as applicable, or
such as may otherwise be required under applicable state securities laws in
connection with the purchase and offer and sale of the Offered Certificates by
the Underwriters and any recordation of the respective assignments of the
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
that have not yet been completed.
(o) The Company is not, and the issuance and sale of the Offered
Certificates in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus will not cause the
Company or the Trust Fund to be, subject to registration or regulation as an
"investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"1940 Act"); and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is not required to be
qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust
Indenture Act").
(p) Upon delivery to the Underwriters of the Offered Certificates
pursuant to this Agreement, each Underwriter will have good title to the Offered
Certificates purchased by such Underwriter, in each case free and clear of liens
granted by or imposed upon the Company.
(q) The consideration received by the Company upon the sale of the
Offered Certificates to the Underwriters will constitute at least reasonably
equivalent value and fair consideration for the Offered Certificates.
(r) The Company (i) will be solvent at all relevant times prior to,
and will not be rendered insolvent by, the sale of the Offered Certificates to
the Underwriters and (ii) is not selling the Offered Certificates to the
Underwriters with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the creditors of
the Company.
(s) The transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Trust and the sale of
the Offered Certificates to each of the Underwriters, at the Closing Date, will
be treated by the Company for financial accounting and reporting purposes as a
sale of assets and not as a pledge of assets to secure debt.
(t) The Company possesses all material licenses, certificates,
authorizations or permits issued by the appropriate state, federal or foreign
regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct business now operated by it,
and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the
revocation or modification of any such license, certificate, authorization or
permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable
decision, ruling or finding, would materially and adversely affect the
condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or business
prospects of the Company.
(u) The Company is not, as of the Time of Sale, and will not be, as
of the Closing Date, an "ineligible issuer," as defined in Rule 405 under the
Act.
(v) There are no contracts, indentures or other documents of a
character required by the 1933 Act or by the rules and regulations thereunder to
be described or referred to in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or
to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement which have not been so
described or referred to therein or so filed or incorporated by reference as
exhibits thereto.
(w) Any taxes, fees and other governmental charges in connection
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the delivery and sale of
the Offered Certificates (other than such federal, state and local taxes as may
be payable on the income or gain recognized therefrom) have been or will be paid
at or prior to the Closing Date.
(x) Under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and for
federal income tax purposes, the Company reported the transfer of the Mortgage
Loans to the Trustee in exchange for the Certificates and will report the sale
of the Offered Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement as a
sale of the interests in the Mortgage Loans evidenced by the Offered
Certificates. The consideration received by the Company upon the sale of the
Offered Certificates to the Underwriters will constitute reasonably equivalent
value and fair consideration for the Offered Certificates. The Company will be
solvent at all relevant times prior to, and will not be rendered insolvent by,
the sale of the Offered Certificates to the Underwriters. In addition, the
Company was solvent at all relevant times prior to, and was not rendered
insolvent by, the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee on behalf of the
Trust Fund. The Company is not selling the Offered Certificates to the
Underwriters and did not transfer the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee on behalf of
the Trust Fund with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the creditors
of the Company.
2. Purchase and Sale. On the basis of the representations and
warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set
forth, the Company agrees to sell to the Underwriters, and each of the
Underwriters agrees severally, and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the
principal or notional amount of each class of Offered Certificates under its
name at the Purchase Price set forth in Schedule I hereto.
3. Delivery and Payment. Delivery of and payment for the Offered
Certificates shall be made on the date, location and time of delivery set forth
in Schedule I hereto, which date and time may be postponed by agreement between
the Underwriters and the Company (such date, location and time of delivery and
payment for the Offered Certificates being herein called the "Closing Date").
Delivery of the Offered Certificates shall be made to the Underwriters against
payment by the Underwriters of the purchase price thereof in immediately
available funds. Delivery of such Offered Certificates shall be made through the
facilities of the depository or depositories set forth on Schedule I hereto. Any
Offered Certificates not in book-entry form shall be registered in such names
and in such denominations as any Underwriter, as applicable, may request not
less than three full business days in advance of the Closing Date.
The Company agrees to have the Offered Certificates, signed or in
draft form, available for inspection, checking and packaging, as applicable, by
the Underwriters in New York, New York, not later than the business day prior to
the Closing Date.
4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several
Underwriters propose to offer the Offered Certificates for sale to the public as
set forth in the Prospectus and the Underwriters agree that all such offers and
sales by them shall be made in compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations. It is further understood that the Company, in reliance upon a
no-filing letter from the Attorney General of the State of New York granted
pursuant to Policy Statement 105, has not and will not file an offering
statement pursuant to Section 352-e of the General Business Law of the State of
New York with respect to the Offered Certificates. As required by Policy
Statement 105, each Underwriter therefore covenants and agrees with the Company
that sales of the Offered Certificates made by such Underwriter, as applicable,
in and from the State of New York will be made only to institutional investors
within the meaning of Policy Statement 105.
5. Agreements. The Company agrees with the several Underwriters
that:
(a) The Company will promptly advise the Underwriters (i) when any
amendment to the Registration Statement shall have become effective, (ii) of any
request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus or for any additional information, (iii) of the issuance by the
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement affecting the Offered Certificates or the institution or threatening
of any proceeding for that purpose and (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Offered
Certificates for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of
any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will not file any amendment to the
Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus unless the Company has
furnished to you a copy for your review prior to filing and will not file any
such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object until after
the period in which a prospectus is required to be delivered to purchasers of
the Offered Certificates under the Act. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the
Company will cause the Prospectus Supplement to be filed with the Commission in
accordance with Rule 424 of the Act. The Company will use its best efforts to
prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as
possible the withdrawal thereof.
(b) If, at any time during the Prospectus Delivery Period, 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 any material
fact necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances
under which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend
or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the Act or the rules under the Act,
the Company promptly will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to
paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement that will correct
such statement or omission or an amendment that will effect such compliance and,
if such amendment or supplement is required to be contained in a post-effective
amendment to the Registration Statement, will use its best efforts to cause such
amendment of the Registration Statement to be made effective as soon as
possible.
(c) The Company will furnish to the Underwriters and counsel for the
Underwriters, without charge, signed copies of the Registration Statement
(including exhibits thereto) and, during the Prospectus Delivery Period, as many
copies of the Preliminary FWP and the Prospectus Supplement and any amendments
and supplements thereto as the Underwriters may reasonably request.
(d) The Company will furnish such information, execute such
instruments and take such action, if any, as may be required to qualify the
Offered Certificates for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the
Underwriters may designate and will maintain such qualification in effect so
long as required for the distribution of the Offered Certificates; provided,
however, that the Company 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) The Loan Sellers shall share in the payment (allocated according
to each Loan Seller's ratio of Mortgage Loans (the "Shared Expense Percentage")
of all costs and expenses in connection with the transactions herein
contemplated, including, but not limited to, the fees and disbursements of
counsel to the Company and the Purchasers; the fees, costs and expenses of the
Trustee (to the extent permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and
except to the extent that another party is obligated to pay such amounts
thereunder); the fees and disbursements of accountants for the Company; the cost
and expenses in connection with the preparation, printing and filing of any
offering documents; the preparation and printing of this Agreement and the
delivery to the Purchasers of copies of the Private Placement Memorandum as each
may reasonably request; the fees of the rating agencies rating the Privately
Offered Certificates and the out-of-pocket expenses of each Purchaser incurred
in connection with the purchase and sale of the Privately Offered Certificates;
and any miscellaneous costs (the "Shared Expenses"). All Shared Expenses shall
be paid or accrued on the Closing Date. For allocation purposes, Shared Expenses
shall include estimates of those expenses for which invoices have not been
received. To the extent any Loan Seller has paid any Shared Expense prior to the
closing, such Loan Seller shall be reimbursed for such Shared Expense on the
Closing Date. To the extent that Shared Expense invoices are presented after the
Closing Date, such Shared Expenses shall be divided among the Loan Sellers in
accordance with each Loan Seller's Shared Expense Percentage. Shared Expenses
shall be reconciled and approved for payment within thirty (30) days of the
Closing Date.
(f) The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Underwriter in
providing investment banking services to the Company in connection with the
offering, including in acting pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, has acted
and is acting as an independent contractor and not as a fiduciary and the
Company does not intend such Underwriter to act in any capacity other than
independent contractor, including as a fiduciary or in any other position of
higher trust.

rights and obligations of the Underwriters hereunder shall be subject to the

not misleading.

Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (b) may be qualified as an
opinion only on the law of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware and the federal law of the United States of America.
(g) The Underwriters shall have received from counsel of the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee a favorable opinion, dated the
Closing Date, with respect to such matters as the Underwriters shall have
reasonably requested and in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the
Underwriters, which will include an opinion as to the compliance of the
disclosure with respect to each such party with the requirements of Regulation
AB and that such disclosure does not contain an untrue statement of any material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein (in the case of any item comprising the Time of Sale Information, when
read in connection with the other items comprising the Time of Sale Information
delivered to investors in the Offered Certificates as of the applicable Time of
Sale), in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
(h) The Underwriters shall have received from Cadwalader, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
& ▇▇▇▇ LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, a favorable opinion, dated the Closing
Date and satisfactory in form and substance to the Underwriters.
(i) The Underwriters shall have received from KPMG LLP, certified
public accountants, a letter dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and
substance to the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters stating in effect
that using the assumptions and methodology used by the Company, all of which
shall be described in such letter, they have recalculated such numbers and
percentages set forth in the Preliminary FWP, the First Bloomberg and the
Prospectus as the Underwriters may reasonably request and as are agreed to by
KPMG LLP, compared the results of their calculations to the corresponding items
in the Preliminary FWP, the First Bloomberg and the Prospectus, and found each
such number and percentage set forth in the Preliminary FWP, the First Bloomberg

they may reasonably request.
(l) 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 the Depositor or a Mortgage Loan Seller (including any
of the Mortgage Loans) which such Underwriter concludes, in the reasonable
judgment of such Underwriter, materially impairs the investment quality of the
Certificates so as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the
public offering or the delivery of the Certificates as contemplated by the Time
of Sale Information (excluding the Corrective Information) and the Prospectus.
(m) At the Closing Date, the respective classes of Offered
Certificates shall continue to have maintained ratings no lower than those set

organizations identified in Schedule I hereto (individually and collectively,
the "Rating Agency").
If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have
been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided by this Agreement,
or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this
Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form
and substance to the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters, this
Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled on,
or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Underwriters. Notice of such
cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing, by telephone or by either
telegraph or telecopier confirmed in writing.
7. [Reserved].
8. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter,
its officers and directors, and each person, if any, who controls such
Underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") against:
(i) any and all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or
liabilities, joint or several, to which any such indemnified party
may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal
or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses 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 part of the Registration Statement,
the Prospectus, the Diskette (as defined below) or any revision or
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
any material fact contained in (x) any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus (as defined in Section 9(e)(i) below) or (y) any "issuer
information" (as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Act) ("Issuer
Information") contained in (1) the Time of Sale Information, (2) any
Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (as defined in Section 9(b)
below) prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter, or (3) any
other Free Writing Prospectus that is required to be filed pursuant
to Section 9(e)(iii), Section 9(e)(iv) or Section 9(h) hereof
(clauses (x) and (y) collectively, the "Issuer Disclosure
Materials"), or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein
(when read in connection with the other initial Time of Sale
Information or the other revised Time of Sale Information in
connection with a Subsequent Time of Sale), in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, which
untrue statement or omission referred to above in this clause (ii)
was not corrected by information subsequently supplied by the
Company to such Underwriter a reasonable period of time prior to the
sale to the applicable investor of the Offered Certificates
(including without limitation a contract of sale) or (iii) any
untrue statement or omission of a material fact made as a result of
an error in the manipulation of, or in any calculations based upon,
or in any aggregation of the information regarding the Mortgage
Loans, the related mortgagors and/or the related Mortgaged
Properties set forth in the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus
Supplement, including the Master Tape, or Annex A thereto. The
Company shall reimburse any such indemnified party for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending against such loss, claim,
damage, liability, or action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the
Company shall not be liable in any such case if and to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage, or liability arises out of or is
based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity
with (A) the Underwriter Supplied Information (as defined in Section
8(b) below), (B) information regarding any Mortgage Loan Seller, the
Mortgage Loans sold by such Mortgage Loan Seller to the Company, or
the related Mortgaged Properties to the extent such information is
covered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller in the indemnification
agreement entered into between such Mortgage Loan Seller, the
Depositor and the Underwriters (the information in clause (B)
referred to herein as the "Mortgage Loan Seller Information"), (C)
information regarding the Mortgage Loans that is contained in the
Loan Detail (as defined below) or, to the extent consistent
therewith, the Diskette or (D) information regarding the Trustee,
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to the extent such
information is covered by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or
Trustee in the indemnification agreement entered into between such
party, the Depositor and the Underwriters (such information, the
"Transaction Party Information") and (ii) such indemnity with
respect to an untrue statement or omission of a material fact made
in any Issuer Disclosure Materials that are part of the initial Time
of Sale Information, shall not inure to the benefit of any
Underwriter (or any person controlling such Underwriter or any
officer or director of any Underwriter) asserting any such loss,
claim, damage or liability based on a claim by a purchaser of the
Offered Certificates, which are the subject thereof, if and to the
extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability results from such
person not receiving a copy of any subsequent Issuer Disclosure
Materials correcting such untrue statement or omission of a material
fact contained in any subsequent Issuer Disclosure Materials that
are part of the Time of Sale Information so long as the Company
delivered the corrected information to such Underwriter a reasonable
time prior to the Time of Sale. This indemnity agreement will be in
addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.
"Loan Detail" shall mean the information set forth in Annexes A-1,
A-2, A-3, A-4 and A-5 to the Prospectus Supplement. "Diskette" shall
mean the information set forth on the diskette attached to the
Prospectus;
(ii) any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid
in settlement of any litigation, or any 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, if such settlement
is effected with the written consent of the Company or as otherwise
contemplated by Section 8(a) hereof;
(iii) any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including
the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by such Underwriter),
reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against
any litigation, or any 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 (i) or (ii) above; provided, however,
the indemnity provided by this Section 8(a) shall not apply to any
loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out
of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter expressly
for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or
in the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement (or any
amendment or supplement thereto); and
(iv) any breach of the representation and warranty in Section
1(u).
(b) Each Underwriter will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, and each
person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the
Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to
such Underwriter, but only with reference to (A) the Underwriter Supplied
Information provided by or relating to such Underwriter, which was not corrected
by a subsequent Underwriter Supplied Information supplied to the Company by such
Underwriter prior to the sale to the applicable investor of Offered Certificates
(including without limitation a contract of sale), or (B) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Free Writing
Prospectus described in Sections 9(g) and 9(h) or omission or alleged omission
to state in any such Free Writing Prospectus a material fact necessary in order
to make the statements therein (when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale
Information), in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, which was not corrected by a subsequent Free Writing Prospectus
supplied to the Company by such Underwriter prior to the sale to the applicable
investor of Offered Certificates (including without limitation a contract of
sale); provided, that no Underwriter shall be obligated to so indemnify and hold
harmless to the extent such losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or
liabilities arise out of or are based upon (A) an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained in or made in
reliance on and in conformity with the Mortgage Loan Sellers' Information or the
Transaction Party Information or (B) any errors in the mathematical calculations
reflected in such Free Writing Prospectus to the extent such errors arise out of
or are based upon errors in such Mortgage Loan Sellers' Information or the
Transaction Party Information; provided, further, that no Underwriter shall be
liable for any losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or liabilities arising
out of or based upon any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or
alleged omission (including those of a quantitative nature) that arise out of or
are based upon an error or omission in any Issuer Information supplied by the
Company to the Underwriter, which error or omission in such Issuer Information
was not corrected by information subsequently supplied by the Company to such
Underwriter a reasonable period of time prior to the sale to the applicable
investor of Offered Certificates (including without limitation a contract of
sale). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any
Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set
forth in the second to last paragraph of the cover page and in the seventh
paragraph under the heading "Method of Distribution" in the Prospectus
constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the
several Underwriters for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing
indemnity (other than any Free Writing Prospectus furnished to the Company by
any Underwriter) (the "Underwriter Supplied Information"). Any Free Writing
Prospectus furnished to the Company by a particular Underwriter shall relate
exclusively to and be the several responsibility of such Underwriter, as
applicable, and no other.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 8 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 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
commencement thereof, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not
relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8, except to the extent that it has been
materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that the omission
so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which
it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. Upon
request of the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall retain counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any
others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the
fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding as incurred.
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 (which may
be counsel representing the indemnifying party); provided, however, 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 legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified
parties which are different from or additional to 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 under this Section 8 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 Underwriters in
the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 8 or the Company in the case of
paragraph (b) of this Section 8, representing the indemnified parties under such
paragraph who are parties to such action), (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. The
indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding
effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), but if settled with such consent or if there shall be a final
judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the
indemnified party, but only to the extent provided herein, from and against any
loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. If the indemnifying
party assumes the defense of any proceeding, it shall be entitled to settle such
proceeding with the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, or, if such settlement (i) does not include a
statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or
on behalf of any such indemnified party, and (ii) includes an unconditional
release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the
subject matter of such proceeding, without the consent of the indemnified party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 8 is applicable in accordance with its terms, but is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under such paragraph (a) or
(b) above, then in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or
liabilities referred to in such paragraph (a) or (b) above in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying
party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the
other from the offering of the Offered Certificates or (ii) if the allocation
provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not
only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying
party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the
other in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or
omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or
liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and any Underwriter on
the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds
from the issuance and sale of the Offered Certificates under this Agreement
(before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total
underwriting discounts received by such Underwriter. The relative fault of the
parties 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 Company
on the one hand, or such Underwriter on the other, the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission or alleged statement or omission, and any other equitable
considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The Company and the
Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if the amount of such
contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any
other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in this subsection (d).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8(d), 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 8,
each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the
Exchange Act and each officer and director of an Underwriter shall have the same
rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer and
director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Company, subject in each case to the preceding sentence of this paragraph (d).
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).
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no Underwriter
shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total underwriting discounts, commissions and other fees received by such
Underwriter in connection with the offering of the Offered Certificates exceeds
the amount of damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay
by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission.
The Underwriters' respective obligations to contribute pursuant to
this Section 8 are several in proportion to the respective amount of Offered
Certificates they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.
9. Offering Communications; Free Writing Prospectuses.
(a) Unless preceded or accompanied by a prospectus satisfying the
requirements of Section 10(a) of the Act, no Underwriter shall convey or deliver
any written communication to any person in connection with the initial offering
of the Certificates, unless such written communication (i) is made in reliance
on Rule 134 under the Act, (ii) is made in reliance on Rule 172 under the Act,
(iii) constitutes a prospectus satisfying the requirements of Rule 430B under
the Act or (iv) constitutes a "free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 405
under the Act (a "Free Writing Prospectus"). Without limitation thereby, without
the prior written consent of the Company (which consent may be withheld for any
reason), no Underwriter shall prepare, convey or deliver in connection with the
initial offering of the Certificates any Free Writing Prospectus or "ABS
informational and computational material," as defined in Item 1101(a) of
Regulation AB under the Act ("ABS Informational and Computational Material" and
together with any Free Writing Prospectus "Disclosure Information"), in reliance
upon Rules 167 and 426 under the Act other than materials provided to it by the
Company, including Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses; provided, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, each Underwriter may use an Underwriter Free
Writing Prospectus that does not include Issuer Information without obtaining
the prior written consent of the Company.
(b) Each Underwriter shall deliver to the Company:
(i) any Free Writing Prospectus that was prepared by or on
behalf of such Underwriter or any affiliate thereof (each, an
"Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus") that contains any Issuer
Information by no later than two (2) business days prior to the date
of first use thereof or such later date as may be agreed to by the
Company; and
(ii) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof prepared
by or on behalf of such Underwriter that contains only a description
of the final terms of the Offered Certificates by no later than the
later of (A) the date such final terms have been established for all
classes of the Offered Certificates or (B) the date of first use.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Free Writing Prospectus that
contains only ABS Informational and Computational Materials may be delivered by
an Underwriter to the Company not later than the later of (A) two business days
prior to the due date for filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
the Act or (B) the date of first use of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(c) Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Company that the
Free Writing Prospectuses to be furnished to the Company by such Underwriter
pursuant to Section 9(b) hereof will constitute all Free Writing Prospectuses of
the type described therein that were furnished to prospective investors by such
Underwriter in connection with its offer and sale of the Certificates.
(d) Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Company that
each Free Writing Prospectus (other than an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus)
required to be provided by it to the Company pursuant to Section 9(b) hereof,
when used in conjunction with any information delivered prior to the Time of
Sale, did not, as of the date such Free Writing Prospectus was conveyed or
delivered to any prospective investor, include any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and that each such Free
Writing Prospectus complied with Rules 164, 167, 426 and 433, as applicable,
under the Act; provided, however, that no Underwriter makes any representation
or warranty to the extent such misstatements or omissions are based upon or
arise out of an untrue statement or omission in the Issuer Information supplied
by the Company to such Underwriter, the Mortgage Loan Seller Information or the
Transaction Party Information, which information was not corrected by
information subsequently supplied by the Company, the related Mortgage Loan
Seller or the related Transaction Party to such Underwriter prior to the sale to
such investor of the Offered Certificates (including without limitation, by
means of a contract of sale).
(e) The Company agrees to file with the Commission the following:
(i) Any Free Writing Prospectus that constitutes an "issuer
free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Act
(each, an "Issuer Free Writing Prospectus");
(ii) Any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof delivered
by an Underwriter to the Company pursuant to Section 9(b) hereof
(but not any subsequent Free Writing Prospectus containing only
information prepared by or on behalf of an Underwriter on the basis
of or derived from Issuer Information previously filed);
(iii) Any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof that
contains a description of the final terms of the Offered
Certificates, after such terms have been established for all classes
in the offering; and
(iv) Any Free Writing Prospectus for which the Company or any
person acting on its behalf provided, authorized or approved
information that is prepared and published or disseminated by a
person unaffiliated with the Company or any other offering
participant that is in the business of publishing, radio or
television broadcasting or otherwise disseminating communications.
(f) Any Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed pursuant to
Section 9(e) hereof by the Company shall be filed with the Commission not later
than the date of first use of the Free Writing Prospectus, except that:
(i) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof required to
be filed that contains only a description of the final terms of the
Offered Certificates may be filed by the Company within two (2) days
of the later of the date such final terms have been established for
all classes of Certificates and the date of first use;
(ii) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof required
to be filed that contains only ABS Informational and Computational
Material may be filed by the Company with the Commission not later
than the later of the due date for filing of the Prospectus pursuant
to Rule 424(b) under the Act or two (2) business days after the date
of first use of such Free Writing Prospectus; and
(iii) any Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed
pursuant to Section 9(e)(iv) hereof may, if no payment has been made
or consideration has been given by or on behalf of the Company for
the Free Writing Prospectus or its dissemination, be filed by the
Company with the Commission not later than four (4) business days
after the Company becomes aware of the publication, radio or
television broadcast or other dissemination of such Free Writing
Prospectus.
(g) Each Underwriter (with the reasonable cooperation of the
Company) shall file with the Commission any Free Writing Prospectus (other than
a Free Writing Prospectus required to be delivered to the Company pursuant to
Section 9(b)) that is neither an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus nor contains
Issuer Information and that is used or referred to by such Underwriter or
distributed by or on behalf of such Underwriter in a manner reasonably designed
to lead to its broad, unrestricted dissemination not later than the date of the
first use of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(h) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9(g) hereof, each
Underwriter (with the reasonable cooperation of the Company, including, without
limitation, providing any "CIK" and "CCC" information) shall file with the
Commission any Free Writing Prospectus for which such Underwriter or any person
acting on its behalf provided, authorized or approved information that is
prepared and published or disseminated by a person unaffiliated with the Company
or any other offering participant that is in the business of publishing, radio
or television broadcasting or otherwise disseminating written communications and
for which no payment was made or consideration given by or on behalf of the
Company or any other offering participant, not later than four (4) business days
after such Underwriter becomes aware of the publication, radio or television
broadcast or other dissemination of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(i) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 9(e) (other than
9(e)(iii)) and 9(g) hereof, neither the Company nor any Underwriter shall be
required to file (A) Issuer Information contained in any Free Writing Prospectus
of an Underwriter or any offering participant other than the Company, if such
information is included or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus or a Free
Writing Prospectus previously filed with the Commission that relates to the
offering of the Certificates, (B) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof
that contains a description of the Certificates or the offering of the
Certificates which does not reflect the final terms thereof or (C) any Free
Writing Prospectus that does not contain substantive changes from or additions
to a Free Writing Prospectus previously filed with the Commission.
(j) The Company and the Underwriters each agree that any Free
Writing Prospectuses prepared by each such party shall contain the following
legend:
"The depositor filed a registration statement (including a
prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC File No.
333-140740) for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you
invest, you should read the prospectus in the registration statement and other
documents the depositor has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
for more complete information about the depositor, the issuing entity and this
offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting ▇▇▇▇▇ on the
Securities and Exchange Commission web site at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇. Alternatively, the
depositor, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will
arrange to send you the prospectus after filing if you request it by calling
toll free ▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇.
(k) The Company and the Underwriters each agree to retain all Free
Writing Prospectuses that they have used and that are not required to be filed
pursuant to this Section 9 for a period of three (3) years following the initial
bona fide offering of the Certificates.
(l) In the event that the Company becomes aware, at any time between
the Time of Sale or any Subsequent Time of Sale and the Closing Date, that any
information in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Issuer Information
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein (when read in
conjunction with the other applicable Time of Sale Information), in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (a "Defective Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus"), the Company shall notify the Underwriters of such
untrue statement or omission within one business day after discovery (except for
any Underwriter that informed the Issuer of such untrue statement or omission)
and the Company shall, if requested by the Underwriters, prepare and deliver to
the Underwriters a Free Writing Prospectus that corrects the material
misstatement or omission in the Defective Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (such
corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a "Corrected Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus"). In the event that, at any time between the Time of Sale or any
Subsequent Time of Sale and the Closing Date, any Underwriter becomes aware that
any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus delivered thereby to an investor in any
Offered Certificates contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits
to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained
therein (when read in conjunction with the applicable Time of Sale Information),
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (a
"Defective Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus" and, together with a Defective
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a "Defective Free Writing Prospectus"), such
Underwriter shall notify the Company of such untrue statement or omission within
one business day after discovery (unless the Company was the party that informed
such Underwriter of such untrue statement or omission) and:
(i) The Underwriters shall, if requested by the Company:
(A) If the Defective Free Writing Prospectus was an
Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, prepare a Free Writing
Prospectus that corrects the material misstatement in or omission
from the Defective Free Writing Prospectus (together with a
Corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a "Corrected Free Writing
Prospectus"), provided, that if an Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus and Issuer Free Writing Prospectus are both determined to
be a Defective Free Writing Prospectus as a result of the same
untrue statement or omission in each such document, then the Issuer
shall prepare a single Corrected Free Writing Prospectus correcting
both such Defective Free Writing Prospectuses;
(B) Either (i) deliver the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus
to each investor that received the Defective Free Writing Prospectus
from such Underwriter prior to entering into a contract of sale with
such investor, clearly identifying or highlighting the Corrective
Information, or (ii) deliver the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus
to each investor which received the Defective Free Writing
Prospectus from such Underwriter and has entered into a contract of
sale, clearly identifying or highlighting the Corrective
Information, and (x) notify in writing each such investor in a
prominent fashion that the prior contract of sale with such investor
has been terminated, and of such investor's rights as a result of
termination of such agreement and (y) provide such investor with an
opportunity to affirmatively agree in writing to purchase the
Certificates on the terms described in the Corrected Free Writing
Prospectus; and
(C) Comply with any other requirements for reformation of the
original contract of sale with such investor, as described in
Section IV.A.2.c of the Commission's Securities Offering Reform
Release No. 33-8591.
(m) In the event that a Defective Free Writing Prospectus was an
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and the defective information was not Underwriter
Supplied Information, Mortgage Loan Seller Information or Transaction Party
Information and the Underwriters shall in good faith incur any costs to an
investor in connection with the reformation of the contract of sale with the
investor, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for such costs. Each
Underwriter covenants with the Company that, upon reasonable request, it will
make available to the Company such personnel as are familiar with the
Underwriter's compliance procedures for the purpose of answering questions
concerning the Underwriter's practices and procedures for the preparation and
dissemination of written materials concerning the Offered Certificates to
prospective investors prior to the delivery of the final Prospectus to such
investors.
(n) Each Underwriter covenants with the Company that after the final
Prospectus is available the Underwriter shall not distribute any written
information concerning the Certificates to a prospective investor unless such
information is preceded or accompanied by the final Prospectus.
(o) Each Underwriter further represents and warrants that it has
offered and sold Offered Certificates only to, or directed at, persons who (i)
are outside the United Kingdom; (ii) have professional experience in
participating in unregulated collective investment schemes; or (iii) are persons
falling within Article 22(2)(a) through (d) of the Financial Services and
Markets Act 2000 (Promotion of Collective Investment Schemes) (Exemptions) Order
2001.
10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in
the absolute discretion of the Underwriters by notice given to the Company prior
to delivery of and payment for all Offered Certificates if prior to such time
(i) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York shall have
been declared by either federal or New York State authorities, or (ii) there
shall have occurred any material outbreak or material escalation 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 the reasonable judgment of the
Underwriters, impracticable to market the Offered Certificates.
11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective
agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the
Company or its officers and the Underwriters 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 any Underwriter or the Company or any of
the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof,
and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Certificates. The
provisions of Sections 5(e), 8, 9 and 12 hereof shall survive the termination or
cancellation of this Agreement.
12. Obligations of CWCapital LLC. CWCapital LLC agrees with the
Underwriters, for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Underwriters and each of
their respective officers, directors and any other person, if any, who controls
the Underwriters within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act and not for
the benefit of any assignee thereof or any other person or persons dealing with
the Underwriters, to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriters against any
failure by the Company to perform its obligations to the Underwriters and their
respective officers, directors and control persons pursuant to Section 8 hereof.
13. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and
effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Underwriters will be mailed,
delivered or either telegraphed or transmitted by telecopier and confirmed to

14. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the
officers, directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and
their successors and assigns, and no other person will have any right or
obligation hereunder.
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 the provisions thereof concerning conflict of laws. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall for

We, CWCapital Commercial Funding Corp., have prepared this prospectus
supplement in order to offer the classes of commercial mortgage pass-through
certificates identified above. These certificates are the only securities
offered by this prospectus supplement. This prospectus supplement specifically
relates to, and is accompanied by, our prospectus dated July 20, 2007. We will
not list the offered certificates on any national securities exchange or any
automated quotation system of any registered securities associations.
The offered certificates will represent interests in, and represent
obligations of, the issuing entity only and do not represent the obligations of
the depositor, the sponsors or any of their affiliates. None of the offered
certificates or the mortgage loans are insured or guaranteed by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by any private mortgage insurer or by the
depositor, the underwriters, any mortgage loan seller, or any other party. The
primary assets of the trust will be a pool of multifamily and commercial
mortgage loans. The initial balance of the mortgage loans that we expect to
transfer to the trust will be approximately $2,016,804,393.
Each class of offered certificates will receive, to the extent of
available funds, monthly distributions of interest, principal or both, on the
fourth business day following any related determination date in any given month,
commencing in September 2007. Credit enhancement is being provided through the
subordination of the non-offered classes of series 2007-C3 certificates, as
described under "Description of the Offered Certificates--Payments" in this
prospectus supplement.
You should fully consider the risk factors beginning on page S-40 in this
prospectus supplement and on page 12 in the accompanying prospectus prior to
investing in the offered certificates.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities
commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the
adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus supplement or the accompanying
prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
