Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriter The several obligations of each Underwriter named in any Terms Agreement to purchase and pay for the Certificates will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Depositor as of the date hereof, the date of the applicable Terms Agreement and the applicable Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements made in any officers’ certificates (each an “Officer’s Certificate”) pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Depositor of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent:
(a) At the time the applicable Terms Agreement is executed, Deloitte & Touche LLP and/or any other firm of certified independent public accountants acceptable to you shall have furnished to you a letter, addressed to you, and in form and substance satisfactory to you in all respects, stating in effect that using the assumptions and methodology used by the Depositor, all of which shall be described in such letter or the Prospectus Supplement, they have recalculated such numbers, percentages and weighted average lives set forth in the Prospectus Supplement as you may reasonably request, compared the results of their calculations to the corresponding items in the Prospectus Supplement, and found each such number, percentage, and weighted average life set forth in the Prospectus Supplement to be in agreement with the results of such calculations. To the extent historical financial delinquency or related information is included with respect to one or more master servicers, such letter or letters shall also relate to such information.
(b) At the Closing Date, Deloitte & Touche LLP and/or any other firm of certified independent public accountants acceptable to you shall have furnished to you a letter, addressed to you, and in form and substance satisfactory to you in all respects, relating to the extent such information is not covered in the letter or letters provided pursuant to clause (a)(i), to a portion of the information set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the characteristics of the mortgage loans, as presented in the Prospectus Supplement or the Form 8-K relating thereto, or if a letter relating to the same information is provided to the Trustee, indicating that you are entitled to rely upon its letter to the Trustee.
(c) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there shall not have been any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the business or properties of the Depositor or any of its affiliates the effect of which, in any case, is, in your judgment, so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the Offering or the delivery of the Certificates as contemplated by the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. All actions required to be taken and all filings required to be made by the Depositor under the Act and the Exchange Act prior to the sale of the Certificates shall have been duly taken or made; and prior to the applicable Closing Date, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been instituted, or to the knowledge of the Depositor or you, shall be contemplated by the Commission or by any authority administering any state securities or Blue Sky law.
(d) Unless otherwise specified in any applicable Terms Agreement for a Series, the Certificates shall be rated in one of the four highest grades by one or more nationally recognized statistical rating agencies specified in said Terms Agreement.
(e) You shall have received the opinion of counsel for the Depositor, dated the applicable Closing Date, substantially to the effect set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto.
(f) Each opinion also shall relate to such other matters as may be specified in the related Terms Agreement or as to which you reasonably may request. In rendering any such opinion, counsel for the Depositor may rely on certificates of responsible officers of the Depositor, the Trustee, and public officials or, as to matters of law other than New York or Federal law, on opinions of other counsel (copies of which opinions shall be delivered to you), provided that, in cases of opinions of other counsel, counsel for the Depositor shall include in its opinion a statement of its belief that both it and you are justified in relying on such opinions.
(g) You shall have received from counsel for the Depositor a letter, dated as of the Closing Date, stating that you may rely on the opinions delivered by such firm under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and to the rating agency or agencies rating the Certificates as if such opinions were addressed directly to you (copies of which opinions shall be delivered to you).
(h) You shall have received from counsel for the Underwriters, if such counsel is different from counsel to the Depositor, such opinion or opinions, dated as of the Closing Date, with respect to the validity of the Certificates, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and other related matters as the Underwriters may require, and the Depositor shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they may have requested from it for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.
(i) You shall have received Officer’s Certificates signed by such of the principal executive, financial and accounting officers of the Depositor as you may request, dated as of the Closing Date, in which such officers, to the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation, shall state that the representations and warranties of the Depositor in this Agreement are true and correct; that the Depositor has complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date; that no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are contemplated; that, subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus, and except as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus, there has not been any material adverse change in the general affairs, business, key personnel, capitalization, financial condition or results of operations of the Depositor; that except as otherwise stated in the Prospectus, there are no material actions, suits or proceedings pending before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or, to their knowledge, threatened, affecting the Depositor or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and that attached thereto are true and correct copies of a letter or letters from the one or more nationally recognized statistical rating agencies specified in the applicable Terms Agreement confirming that, unless otherwise specified in said Terms Agreement, the Certificates have been rated in one of the four highest grades by each of such agencies and that such rating has not been lowered since the date of such letter. The Depositor will furnish you with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as you reasonably request. If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects with respect to a particular Offering when and as provided in this Agreement and the related Terms Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement and the related Terms Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to you, this Agreement (with respect to the related Offering) and the related Terms Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder (with respect to the related Offering) and thereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the related Closing Date by the Underwriters. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Depositor in writing, or by telephone or telegraph confirmed in writing.
