(j)
Compliance with Law, Etc.

Section 5.
Indemnification and Contribution.
(a)
(a) FGIC agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Initial Purchaser (and its officers, directors, employees and agents) and each person, if any, who controls such Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and (ii) the Issuer and its directors and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any Initial Purchasers or the Issuer or any such controlling person in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the FGIC Information included in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or caused by a breach of any of the representations of FGIC contained in Section 4 hereof.
(b)
Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless FGIC (and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents) and each person, if any, who controls FGIC within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by FGIC or any such controlling person in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the information appearing on the fourth and fifth sentences under paragraph 10 (concerning market making activities) and paragraph 11 (concerning stabilization) under the heading “Plan of Distribution” (the “Initial Purchasers’ Information”), in each case, included in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, or caused by any
-4-
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or caused by a breach of any of the representations of such Initial Purchaser contained in Section 2 hereof.
(c)
Except for the FGIC Information and the Initial Purchasers Information included in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, the Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless FGIC, each of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents and each person, if any, who controls FGIC within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by FGIC or any such controlling person in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or Offering Memorandum or by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or caused by a breach of any of the representations of the Issuer contained in Section 3 hereof.
(d)
In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to any of the three preceding paragraphs, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 5 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party other than under this Section 5. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of such action. If it so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, an indemnifying party, jointly with any other indemnifying parties receiving such notice, may, except as provided in the immediately following sentence, assume the defense of such action, with counsel reasonably 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. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Subject to the second preceding sentence hereto, such firm shall be designated in writing by Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as the representative of the Initial Purchasers, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to paragraph (a) above. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding
-5-
effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include an admission or statement of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or in behalf of any indemnified party.
(e)
If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 5 is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of, or in addition to, indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in the case of the indemnities provided in paragraphs (a) (as between FGIC and the Initial Purchasers) and (b) (A) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by FGIC on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the Class G-1 Notes or (B) if the allocation provided by clause (A) of this clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (A) of this clause (i) but also the relative fault of FGIC on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations and (ii) in the case of the indemnities provided in paragraphs (a) (as between FGIC and the Issuer) and (c), (A) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by FGIC on the one hand and the Issuer on the other hand from the offering of the Class G-1 Notes or (B) if the allocation provided by clause (A) of this clause (ii) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (A) of this clause (ii) but also the relative fault of FGIC on the one hand and the Issuer on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by FGIC shall be deemed to be the aggregate amount of premiums paid to FGIC in respect of the Policy through the applicable date of determination of such relative benefits less any amount paid by FGIC under such Policy through such date. The relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Class G-1 Notes shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the aggregate offering price of the Class G-1 Notes bears to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers in respect of the Class G-1 Notes. The relative fault of FGIC, the Issuer or the Initial Purchasers 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 FGIC or the Issuer or the Initial Purchasers’ Information, as the case may be, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5 are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of the Class G-1 Notes they have purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and not joint;
-6-
provided that the foregoing provision does not affect FGIC’s right to seek contribution based on any Initial Purchaser’s relative fault.
(f)
The Issuer, FGIC and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (e) above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (e) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute hereunder any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by it with respect to the Class G-1 Notes exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11 (f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
(g)
The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 and the representations and warranties of the parties hereto contained in this Indemnification Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Indemnification Agreement, (ii) any investigation or statement as to the results of any investigation made by or on behalf of (A) any Initial Purchaser or any person controlling any Initial Purchaser, (B) FGIC, its officers or directors or any person controlling FGIC or (C) the Issuer, its directors or any person controlling the Issuer and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Class G-1 Notes.
Section 6.
Amendments, Etc. This Indemnification Agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated only by written instrument or written instruments signed by the parties hereto.
