prior similar materials relating to the Offered Notes. The
information in this free writing prospectus is preliminary, and
is subject to completion or change. This free writing prospectus
is being delivered to you solely to provide you with information
about the offering of the Offered Notes referred to in this free
writing prospectus and to solicit an offer to purchase the
Offered Notes, when, as and if issued. Any such offer to purchase
made by you will not be accepted and will not constitute a
contractual commitment by you to purchase any of the Offered
Notes, until we have accepted your offer to purchase Offered
Notes.
The Offered Notes referred to in these materials are being sold
when, as and if issued. The issuer is not obligated to issue such
Offered Notes or any similar security and the underwriter's
obligation to deliver such Offered Notes is subject to the terms
and conditions of the underwriting agreement and the availability
of such Offered Notes when, as and if issued. You are advised
that the terms of the Offered Notes, and the characteristics of
the mortgage loan pool backing them, may change (due, among other
things, to the possibility that mortgage loans that comprise the
pool may become delinquent or defaulted or may be removed or
replaced and that similar or different mortgage loans may be
added to the pool, and that one or more classes of Offered Notes
may be split, combined or eliminated), at any time prior to
issuance or availability of a final prospectus. You are advised
that Offered Notes may not be issued that have the
characteristics described in these materials. The underwriter's
obligation to sell such Offered Notes to you is conditioned on
the mortgage loans and Offered Notes having the characteristics
described in these materials. If for any reason the issuer does
not deliver such Offered Notes, the underwriter will notify you,
and neither the issuer nor any underwriter will have any
obligation to you to deliver all or any portion of the Offered
Notes which you have committed to purchase, and none of the
issuer nor any underwriter will be liable for any costs or
damages whatsoever arising from or related to such non-delivery.
(e) It is understood that the Underwriters will not enter into a
Contract of Sale with any investor until the Approved Offering Materials have
been conveyed to the investor with respect to the Offered Notes that are the
subject of such Contract of Sale.
(f) Each Underwriter may prepare and provide to prospective investors
Free Writing Prospectuses, subject to the following conditions to be satisfied
by such Underwriter:
-22-
(i) Unless preceded or accompanied by a prospectus satisfying the
requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act, such
Underwriter shall not convey or deliver any Written Communication
to any person in connection with the initial offering of the
Offered Notes, unless such Written Communication (i) is made in
reliance on Rule 134 under the Securities Act, (ii) constitutes a
prospectus satisfying the requirements of Rule 430B under the
Securities Act or (iii) constitutes a Free Writing Prospectus
consisting solely of (x) information of a type included within
the definition of ABS Informational and Computational Materials,
(y) Permitted Additional Materials or (z) information accurately
extracted from the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or any
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and included in any Underwriter
Prepared Issuer FWP or any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus.
(ii) Such Underwriter shall comply with all applicable laws and
regulations in connection with the use of Free Writing
Prospectuses, including but not limited to Rules 164 and 433 of
the Securities Act Regulations and all SEC guidance relating to
Free Writing Prospectuses, including but not limited to SEC
Release No. 33-8591.
(iii) It is understood and agreed that all information provided
by the Underwriters to or through Bloomberg or Intex or similar
entities for use by prospective investors, or imbedded in any CDI
file provided to prospective investors, or in any email or other
electronic message provided to prospective investors, to the
extent constituting a Free Writing Prospectus, shall be deemed
for purposes of this Agreement to be an Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus and shall not be subject to the required consent of
the Manager set forth in the third sentence in Section
5(V)(f)(v). In connection therewith, each Underwriter agrees that
it shall not provide any information constituting Issuer
Information through the foregoing media unless (i) such
information or substantially similar information is contained
either in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in an Underwriter
Prepared Issuer FWP in compliance with Section 5(V)(f)(v) or (ii)
to the extent such information consists of the terms of the
Offered Notes, the final version of the terms of the Offered
Notes or substantially similar information is contained either in
an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in an Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP in compliance with Section 5(V)(f)(v).
(iv) All Free Writing Prospectuses provided to prospective
investors, whether or not filed with the SEC, shall bear a legend
including the following statement (or a substantially similar
statement approved by the Manager):
"THE DEPOSITOR HAS FILED A REGISTRATION STATEMENT (INCLUDING A
PROSPECTUS) WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE SEC)
-23-
FOR THE OFFERING TO WHICH THIS COMMUNICATION RELATES. BEFORE YOU
INVEST, YOU SHOULD READ THE PROSPECTUS IN THAT REGISTRATION
STATEMENT AND OTHER DOCUMENTS THE DEPOSITOR HAS FILED WITH THE
SEC FOR MORE COMPLETE INFORMATION ABOUT THE DEPOSITOR AND THE
OFFERING. YOU MAY GET THESE DOCUMENTS AT NO CHARGE BY VISITING
XXXXX ON THE SEC WEB SITE AT XXX.XXX.XXX. ALTERNATIVELY, THE
DEPOSITOR, ANY UNDERWRITER OR ANY DEALER PARTICIPATING IN THE
OFFERING WILL ARRANGE TO SEND YOU THE PROSPECTUS AT NO CHARGE IF
YOU REQUEST IT BY CALLING TOLL-FREE 1-8[XX-XXX-XXXX] OR VIA EMAIL
AT ______________."
Upon reasonable notice and in consultation with the Underwriters,
the Manager shall have the right to require additional specific
legends or notations to appear on any Free Writing Prospectus,
the right to require changes regarding the use of terminology and
the right to determine the types of information appearing
therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subsection (b)(iv) will
be satisfied if all Free Writing Prospectuses bear a legend in a
form previously approved in writing by the Manager;
(v) The Underwriters shall deliver to the Manager and its counsel
(in such format as reasonably required by the Manager), prior to
the proposed date of first use thereof, (unless such timing
requirement is waived by the Manager), any Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP (as defined above). To facilitate filing to the extent
required by Section 2(q) or Section 5(V)(i), as applicable, all
Underwriter Derived Information shall be set forth in a document
separate from any Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP including
Issuer Information. Consent to use of any Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP must be given by the Manager in written or electronic
format before the Underwriter provides the Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP to investors pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Underwriters shall not be
required to deliver or obtain consent to use an Underwriter
Prepared Issuer FWP to the extent that it does not contain
substantive changes from or additions to any Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP previously approved by the Manager. In the event that
a Underwriter uses any Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP without
complying with the foregoing requirements, that Underwriter
Prepared Issuer FWP shall be deemed to be an Underwriter Free
Writing Prospectus for purposes of Sections 7(a) and 7(b);
(vi) The Underwriters shall provide the Manager and the Issuer
Trustee with a letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP, certified
public accountants, prior to the Closing Date, satisfactory in
form and substance to the CBA Parties, their counsel and the
Underwriters, to the effect that such
-24-
accountants have performed certain specified procedures, all of
which have been agreed to by the Manager and the Underwriter, as
a result of which they determined that certain information of an
accounting, financial or statistical nature that is included in
any Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP, other than any Pool
Information therein and any information accurately extracted from
the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus and included in such Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP,
is accurate except as to such matters that are not deemed by the
Manager and the Underwriter to be material. The foregoing letter
shall be at the expense of the Underwriter.
(vii) The Manager shall not be obligated to file any Issuer Free
Writing Prospectuses that have been determined to contain any
material error or omission unless such Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus has been provided to a prospective investor, in which
case, the Underwriters shall cooperate with the Manager to
prepare a corrective Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that the
Underwriters will provide to any such prospective investor and
the Manager shall file to the extent required herein. In the
event that an Underwriter becomes aware that, as of the date on
which an investor entered into a Contract of Sale, any Free
Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter
and delivered to such investor contained any untrue statement of
a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (such
Free Writing Prospectus, a "DEFECTIVE FREE WRITING PROSPECTUS"),
such Underwriter shall notify the Manager thereof as soon as
practical but in any event within one business day after
discovery;
(viii) If an Underwriter does not provide any Free Writing
Prospectuses to the Manager pursuant to this subsection (f), such
Underwriter shall be deemed to have represented to the Issuer
Trustee and the CBA Parties, as of the Closing Date, that it did
not provide any prospective investors with any information in
written or electronic form in connection with the offering of the
Offered Notes that would constitute an Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP;
(ix) In the event of any delay in the delivery by such
Underwriter to the Manager any Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP
required to be delivered in accordance with this subsection (f),
or in the delivery of the accountant's comfort letter in respect
thereof pursuant to subsection (b)(vi) above the Manager shall
have the right to delay the release of the Prospectus to
investors or to the Underwriters, to delay the Closing Date and
to take other appropriate actions, in each case as necessary in
order to allow the Manager to file such Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP by the time specified therein;
-25-
(x) Each Underwriter represents that it has in place, and
covenants, in each case to the Issuer Trustee and the CBA
Parties, that it shall maintain internal controls and procedures
which it reasonably believes to be sufficient to ensure full
compliance with all applicable legal requirements of the
Securities Act Regulations with respect to the generation and use
of Free Writing Prospectuses in connection with the offering of
the Offered Notes. In addition, each Underwriter shall, for a
period of at least three years after the date hereof, maintain
written and/or electronic records of the following:
(A) any Free Writing Prospectus used by such Underwriter to
solicit offers to purchase Offered Notes to the extent not filed
with the SEC;
(B) regarding each Free Writing Prospectus delivered by the
Underwriter to an investor, the date of such delivery and
identity of such investor; and
(C) regarding each Contract of Sale entered into by such
Underwriter, the date, identity of the investor and the terms of
such Contract of Sale, as set forth in the related confirmation
of trade.
(xi) Each Underwriter covenants with the Manager and the Issuer
Trustee that after the final Prospectus is available such
Underwriter shall not distribute any written information
concerning the Offered Notes to a prospective investor unless
such information is preceded or accompanied by the Final
Prospectus. It is understood and agreed that the use of written
information in accordance with the preceding sentence is not a
Free Writing Prospectus and is not otherwise restricted or
governed in any way by this Agreement.
(xii) The Underwriters shall not use any Free Writing Prospectus
in connection with the solicitation of offers to purchase Offered
Notes from any prospective investor in a class of Offered Notes
with denominations of less than $25,000 or otherwise designated
as a "retail" class of Offered Notes, and each Underwriter shall
not authorize any such use of any Free Writing Prospectus by any
dealer that purchases any such Offered Notes from such
Underwriter.
(g) Each Underwriter agrees that (i) if the Prospectus is not
delivered with the confirmation in reliance on Rule 172, it will include in
every confirmation sent out the notice required by Rule 173 informing the
investor that the sale was made pursuant to the Registration Statement and that
the investor may request a copy of the Prospectus from such Underwriter; (ii) if
a paper copy of the Prospectus is requested by a person who receives a
confirmation, such Underwriter shall deliver a printed or paper copy of such
Prospectus; and (iii) if an electronic copy of the Prospectus is delivered by
such Underwriter for any purpose, such copy shall be the same electronic file
containing the Prospectus in the identical form transmitted electronically to
-26-
the Underwriter by or on behalf of the Manager specifically for use by the
Underwriter pursuant to this Section 5(V)(g); for example, if the Prospectus is
delivered to such Underwriter by or on behalf of the Manager in a single
electronic file in pdf format, then such Underwriter will deliver the electronic
copy of the Prospectus in the same single electronic file in pdf format. Each
Underwriter further agrees that it will provide to the Manager any Underwriter
Prepared Issuer FWP, or portions thereof, which the Manager is required to file
with the SEC in electronic format and will use reasonable efforts to provide to
the Manager such Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP, or portions thereof, in either
Microsoft Word(R) or Microsoft Excel(R) format and not in a pdf, except to the
extent that the Manager, in its sole discretion, waives such requirements.
(h) If the Manager or an Underwriter determines or becomes aware that
any Written Communication (including without limitation any Approved Offering
Materials) or oral statement (when considered in conjunction with all
information conveyed at the time of Contract of Sale) contains an untrue
statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading at the time that a Contract of Sale was entered into, either the
Manager or such Underwriter may prepare corrective information with notice to
the other party, and such Underwriter shall deliver such information in a manner
reasonably acceptable to both parties, to any person with whom a Contract of
Sale was entered into, and such information shall provide any such person with
the following:
(i) Adequate disclosure of the contractual arrangement;
(ii) Adequate disclosure of the person's rights under the
existing Contract of Sale at the time termination is sought;
(iii) Adequate disclosure of the new information that is
necessary to correct the misstatements or omissions in the
information given at the time of the original Contract of Sale;
and
(iv) A meaningful ability to elect to terminate or not terminate
the prior Contract of Sale and to elect to enter into or not
enter into a new Contract of Sale.
Any costs incurred to the investor in connection with any such termination or
reformation shall be subject to Sections 7(a) and (b), as applicable.
(i) Each Underwriter shall file any Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus that has been distributed by such Underwriter in a manner reasonably
designed to lead to its broad, unrestricted dissemination within the later of
two business days after such Underwriter first provides this information to
investors and the date upon which the Manager is required to file the Prospectus
Supplement with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or
otherwise as required under Rule 433 of the Securities Act; provided, however,
that the Underwriter shall not be required to file any Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus to the extent such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus includes
information in a Free Writing Prospectus, Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus
previously filed with the SEC or that does not contain
-27-
substantive changes from or additions to a Free Writing Prospectus previously
filed with the SEC.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) Each of the CBA Parties agrees jointly and severally to indemnify
and hold harmless each Underwriter, each affiliate of an Underwriter that

person, if any, that controls any Underwriter 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, the legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any
suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted) caused by any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, the Approved Offering Materials or the Prospectus (as amended or
supplemented if the CBA Parties shall have furnished any amendments or
supplements thereto) or in any Issuer Information, or caused by any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading; except
(i) insofar as any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
legal fees and other expenses are caused by any untrue statement
or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made (A) in
reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any
Underwriter furnished to a CBA Party in writing by such
Underwriter expressly for use therein or (B) in the Prepayment
and Yield Information (as defined in the next paragraph); or
(ii) that such indemnity with respect to the Prospectus shall not
inure to the benefit of any Underwriter (or any person
controlling any Underwriter) from whom the person asserting any
such loss, claim, damage or liability, purchased the Offered
Notes which are the subject hereof, if (i) such person did not
receive a copy of the Prospectus (or the Prospectus as amended or
supplemented) at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such
Offered Notes to such person, or (ii) the Underwriters failed to
comply with Section 5(V)(g) hereof, and the alleged untrue
statement contained in, or omission of a material fact from the
Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus as amended or
supplemented; or
(iii) 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 therein relating to any information included in an
Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus or Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP, if any, that have been superseded by a revised
Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus or Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP if the Underwriter (A) has not complied with its
obligation to circulate a revised Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus or Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP in accordance with
Section 5(V)(vii) or (B) has not delivered them to the Manager no
later than one (1) Business Day after delivery to investors (in
the case of (B), to the extent such loss, claim, damage or
liability is attributable to the failure to deliver) provided
that
-31-
the CBA Parties shall indemnify the Underwriter to the extent any
misstatement or omission is contained in the Pool Information.
For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "PREPAYMENT AND YIELD
INFORMATION" means that portion of the information in the Prospectus (or the
Prospectus as amended or supplemented) set forth under the sub-heading
"Prepayment and Yield Considerations - Weighted Average Lives", including the
table entitled "Percent of Initial Principal Outstanding at the Following
Percentages of Constant Prepayment Rate", that is not Pool Information;
provided, however, that information set forth under that sub-heading that is not
Pool Information shall not constitute Prepayment and Yield Information to the
extent such information is inaccurate or misleading in any material respect as a
result of it being based on Pool Information that is inaccurate or misleading in
any material respect.
(b) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify
and hold harmless the Manager, its directors, its officers who sign the
Registration Statement, the Issuer Trustee and CBA and each person that controls
a CBA Party or the Issuer Trustee within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, the
legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or
proceeding or any claim asserted): (i) caused by information relating to such
Underwriter furnished to the CBA Parties in writing by such Underwriter
expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto; (ii) caused by Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus or Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP, if any, delivered to investors by
such Underwriter, except to the extent of any errors in the Underwriter Free
Writing Prospectus or Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP that are caused by errors
in the Pool Information or are caused by a misstatement or omission resulting
from an error or omission in the Issuer Information supplied by the Issuer
Trustee or the CBA Parties to the Underwriter, (iii) caused by any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any
Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP (except for Issuer information or any
information accurately extracted from the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or
any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and included in such Underwriter Prepared
Issuer FWP), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading (when considered in conjunction with
all information conveyed as of the date of the Contract of Sale), (iv) caused by
any Underwriter Prepared Issuer FWP for which the conditions set forth in
Section 5(V)(f)(v) above are not satisfied with respect to the prior consent by
the Manager, and (v) resulting from the Underwriters' failure to comply with
Section 5(V)(e) or failure to file any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus
required to be filed in accordance with Section 5(V)(f)(i).
(c) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or
regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against
any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to subsection
(a) or (b) above, such person (the "INDEMNIFIED PERSON") shall promptly notify
the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PERSON")
in writing, and the Indemnifying Person, upon request of the Indemnified Person,
shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to
represent the Indemnified Person and any others the Indemnifying Person may
designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel
related to such proceeding.
-32-
In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person 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 Person unless:
(i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have
mutually agreed to the contrary;
(ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time
to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Person; or
(iii) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any
impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the
Indemnified Person 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 Person shall not, in connection with
any proceeding or related proceeding 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 Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall
be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Underwriters,
each affiliate of any Underwriter which assists such Underwriter in the
distribution of the Notes and such control persons of Underwriters shall be
designated in writing by the Underwriters and any such separate firm for the
Manager, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement, CBA
and the Issuer Trustee and such control persons of each of the Issuer Trustee
and the CBA Parties shall be designated in writing by that party.
The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such
consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying
Person agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against any loss or
liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested an
Indemnifying Person to reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of
counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of this subsection (c), the
Indemnifying Person agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent if:
(iv) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after
receipt by such Indemnifying Person of the aforesaid request; and
(v) such Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the
Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the
date of such settlement.
No Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a
party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person,
unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified
Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding.
-33-
(d) If the indemnification provided for in subsection (a) or (b) above
is unavailable to an Indemnified Person in respect of any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under
such subsection, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a
result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the CBA Parties and
the Issuer Trustee on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from
the offering of the Offered Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause
(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, 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 the CBA Parties and the Issuer Trustee on
the one hand and the Underwriters on the other 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 the CBA Parties and the Issuer Trustee on the one hand and the
Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective
proportions as the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses)
received by the CBA Parties and the Issuer Trustee and the total underwriting
discounts and the commissions received by the Underwriters bear to the aggregate
public offering price of the Offered Notes. The relative fault of the CBA
Parties and the Issuer Trustee on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other
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 a CBA Party or the
Issuer Trustee or by the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.
The CBA Parties, the Issuer Trustee and the Underwriters agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were
determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters 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 the immediately preceding
paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of
the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in this subsection (d)
shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any
legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall an Underwriter be required to
contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which
the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the
public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter 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 Underwriters' obligations to contribute pursuant to this
Section 7 are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of
Offered Notes set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto, and not
joint.
The remedies provided for in this Section 7 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.
-34-
(e) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this
Section 7 and the representations and warranties of the Issuer Trustee and the
CBA Parties set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force
and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person controlling
any Underwriter or by or on behalf of the Issuer Trustee or a CBA Party, its
officers or directors or any other person controlling the Issuer Trustee or a
CBA Party and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Offered Notes.
(f) To the extent that any payment of damages by a CBA Party pursuant
to subsection (a) above is determined to be a payment of damages pursuant to
paragraph 15 of Guidance Note AGN 120.3- "Purchase and Supply of Assets
(including Securities issued by SPVs)", being a Guidance Note to Prudential
Standard APS 120- "Funds Management and Securitisation" or any successor
thereto, such payment shall be subject to the terms therein (or the terms of any
equivalent provisions in any successor of Prudential Standard APS 120).
8. Termination. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, this Agreement
may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Joint Book Runners, by
notice given to the Issuer Trustee and each CBA Party, if after the execution
and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading
generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by, as the case
may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the London Stock Exchange or the
Australian Stock Exchange, (ii) trading of any securities of or guaranteed by
the Issuer Trustee or any CBA Party shall have been suspended on any exchange or
in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking
activities in New York, Sydney or London shall have been declared by either
United States Federal, New York State, Commonwealth of Australia, New South
Wales State or United Kingdom authorities, or (iv) there shall have occurred any
outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any
calamity or crisis that, in the judgment of the Joint Book Runners, is material
and adverse and which, in the judgment of the Joint Book Runners, makes it
impracticable to market the Offered Notes on the terms and in the manner
contemplated in the Prospectus.
9. Effectiveness of Agreement; Default of Underwriters. This Agreement
shall become effective upon the later of (x) execution and delivery hereof by
the parties hereto and (y) release of notification of the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement (or, if applicable, any post-effective amendment) by the
SEC.
If on the Closing Date any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or
refuse to purchase Offered Notes which it or they have agreed to purchase
hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes
which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused
to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the
Offered Notes to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be
obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Offered
Notes set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the
aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes set forth opposite the names of all
such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as the Joint Book
Runners may specify, to purchase the Offered Notes which such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such
date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of Offered Notes that
any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to Section 1 be increased
pursuant to this Section 9 by an amount in
-35-
excess of one-ninth of such principal amount of Offered Notes without the
written consent of such Underwriter. If on the Closing Date any Underwriter or
Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Notes which it or they
have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal
amount of Offered Notes with respect to which such default occurs is more than
one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes to be purchased on
such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Joint Book Runners and the
Manager for the purchase of such Notes are not made within 36 hours after such
default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any
non-defaulting Underwriter or the CBA Parties and the Issuer Trustee. In any
such case either the Joint Book Runners or the Manager shall have the right to
postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order
that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement and in the
Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action
taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from
liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
10. Expenses Upon Termination. If this Agreement shall be terminated by the
Underwriters, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of
the Issuer Trustee or a CBA Party to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of
the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Issuer Trustee or a
CBA Party shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any
condition of the Underwriters' obligations cannot be fulfilled, the CBA Parties
jointly and severally agree to reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters
as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for
all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and expenses of their counsel)
reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or
the offering contemplated hereunder.
11. Successors. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the CBA Parties, the Issuer Trustee, the Underwriters, each affiliate of
any Underwriter which assists such Underwriter in the distribution of the
Offered Notes, any controlling persons referred to herein and their respective
successors and assigns. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is
intended or shall be construed to give any other person, firm or corporation any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement
or any provision herein contained. No purchaser of Notes from any Underwriter
shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.
12. Certain Matters Relating to the Issuer Trustee.
(a) The Issuer Trustee enters into this Agreement only in its capacity
as trustee of the Trust and in no other capacity. A liability incurred by the
Issuer Trustee acting in its capacity as trustee of the Trust arising under or
in connection with this Agreement is limited to and can be enforced against the
Issuer Trustee only to the extent to which it can be satisfied out of Assets of
the Trust out of which the Issuer Trustee is actually indemnified for the
liability. This limitation of the Issuer Trustee's liability applies despite any
other provision of this Agreement (other than section 12(c)) to the contrary and
extends to all liabilities and obligations of the Issuer Trustee in any way
connected with any representation, warranty, conduct, omission, agreement or
transaction related to this Agreement.
-36-
(b) Each Underwriter and each of the CBA Parties may not sue the
Issuer Trustee in respect of liabilities incurred by the Issuer Trustee, acting
in its capacity as trustee of the Trust, in any capacity other than as trustee
of the Trust including seeking the appointment of a receiver (except in relation
to the Assets of the Trust), or a liquidator, an administrator or any similar
person to the Issuer Trustee or prove in any liquidation, administration or
arrangements of or affecting the Issuer Trustee (except in relation to the
Assets of the Trust).
(c) The provisions of this section 12 will not apply to any obligation
or liability of the Issuer Trustee to the extent that it is not satisfied
because under the Master Trust Deed, this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document in relation to the Trust or by operation of law there is a reduction in
the extent of the Issuer Trustee's indemnification or exoneration out of the
Assets of the Trust, as a result of the Issuer Trustee's fraud, negligence or
wilful default (as defined in the Series Supplement).
(d) It is acknowledged that the Relevant Parties (as defined in the
Series Supplement) are responsible under the Basic Documents for performing a
variety of obligations relating to the Trust. No act or omission of the Issuer
Trustee (including any related failure to satisfy its obligations and any breach
of representations and warranties under this Agreement) will be considered
fraudulent, negligent or a wilful default for the purpose of section 12(c) to
the extent to which the act or omission was caused or contributed to by any
failure by any Relevant Party (other than any person for whom the Issuer Trustee
is responsible or liable for in accordance with any Transaction Document) to
fulfill its obligations relating to the Trust or by any other act or omission of
a Relevant Party or any other such person.
13. Actions by Representative; Notices. Any action by the Underwriters
hereunder may be taken by the Joint Book Runners on behalf of the Underwriters,
and any such action taken by the Joint Book Runners shall be binding upon the
Underwriters. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing
and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any
standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Underwriters shall be given

14. Counterparts; Applicable Law. This Agreement may be signed in
counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.
15. Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the CBA Parties and the Issuer
Trustee submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Federal or State court
in the City, County and
-37-
State of New York, United States of America, in any legal suit, action or
proceeding based on or arising under this Agreement and agrees that all claims
in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in any such court. Each
of the CBA Parties and the Issuer Trustee waives, to the extent permitted by
law, the defense of an inconvenient forum or objections to personal jurisdiction
with respect to the maintenance of such legal suit, action or proceedings any
objection to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in
any Federal or State court in the City, County and State of New York, United
States of America. To the extent that each of the CBA Parties and the Issuer
Trustee or any of their respective properties, assets or revenues may have or
may hereafter become entitled to, or have attributed to it, any right of
immunity from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from setoff or counterclaim,
from the jurisdiction of any court, from service of process, attachment upon or
prior to judgment, or attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from
execution of a judgment, or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of
any relief or for the enforcement of a judgment, in any such jurisdiction, with
respect to its obligations, liabilities or any other matter under or arising out
of or in connection with the issuance of the Offered Notes or this Agreement,
each of the CBA Parties and the Issuer Trustee hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim any such immunity and
consents to such relief and enforcement.
16. Appointments of Process Agent.
(a) Each of the CBA Parties hereby designates and appoints
Commonwealth Bank of Australia, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000
(Attention: Xxx Xxxxxxxx) (the "CBA Process Agent"), as its authorized agent,
upon whom process may be served in any legal suit, action or proceeding based on
or arising under or in connection with this Agreement, it being understood that
the designation and appointment of Commonwealth Bank of Australia, 000 Xxxxxxxxx
Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 (Attention: Xxx Xxxxxxxx) as such authorized agent
shall become effective immediately without any further action on the part of the
each of the CBA Parties. Such appointment shall be irrevocable to the extent
permitted by applicable law and subject to the appointment of a successor agent
in the United States on terms substantially similar to those contained in this
Section 16 and reasonably satisfactory to the Joint Book Runners. If the CBA
Process Agent shall cease to act as agent for service of process, each of the
CBA Parties shall appoint, without unreasonable delay, another such agent, and
notify the Underwriters of such appointment. Each of the CBA Parties represents
to the Underwriters that it has notified the CBA Process Agent of such
designation and appointment and that the CBA Process Agent has accepted the same
in writing. Each of the CBA Parties hereby authorizes and directs the CBA
Process Agent to accept such service. Each of the CBA Parties further agrees
that service of process upon the CBA Process Agent and written notice of that
service to it shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon
it in any such legal suit, action or proceeding. Nothing in this Section 16
shall affect the right of any Underwriter or any person controlling any
Underwriter to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(b) The Issuer Trustee hereby designates and appoints CT Corporation
System, 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 (the "IT Process
Agent"), as its authorized agent, upon whom process may be served in any legal
suit, action or proceeding based on or arising under or in connection with this
Agreement, it being understood that the designation and appointment of CT
Corporation System as such authorized agent shall become effective immediately
without any further action on the part of the Issuer Trustee. Such
-38-
appointment shall be irrevocable to the extent permitted by applicable law and
subject to the appointment of a successor agent in the United States on terms
substantially similar to those contained in this Section 16 and reasonably
satisfactory to the Joint Book Runners. If the IT Process Agent shall cease to
act as agent for service of process, the Issuer Trustee shall appoint, without
unreasonable delay, another such agent, and notify the Underwriters of such
appointment. The Issuer Trustee represents to the Underwriters that it has
notified the IT Process Agent of such designation and appointment and that the
IT Process Agent has accepted the same in writing. The Issuer Trustee hereby
authorizes and directs the IT Process Agent to accept such service. The Issuer
Trustee further agrees that service of process upon the IT Process Agent and
written notice of that service to it shall be deemed in every respect effective
service of process upon it in any such legal suit, action or proceeding. Nothing
in this Section 16 shall affect the right of any Underwriter or any person
controlling any Underwriter to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law.
17. Currency Indemnity. The obligations of the parties to make payments
under this Agreement are in U.S. dollars. Such obligations shall not be
discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment
expressed in any currency other than U.S. dollars or any other realization in
such other currency, whether as proceeds of set-off security, guarantee,
distributions, or otherwise, except to the extent to which such tender recovery
or realization shall result in the receipt by the party which is to receive such
payment of the full amount of the U.S. dollars expressed to be payable under
this Agreement. The party liable to make such payment agrees to indemnify the
party which is to receive such payment for the amount (if any) by which the full
amount of U.S. dollars exceeds the amount actually received, and, in each case,
such obligation shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other
sums due under this Agreement. The parties agree that the rate of exchange which
shall be used to determine if such tender, recovery or realization shall result
in the receipt by the party which is to receive such payment of the full amount
of U.S. dollars expressed to be payable under this Agreement shall be the noon
buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in such foreign currency as
certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York of the
business day preceding that on which the judgment becomes a final judgment or,
if such noon buying rate is not available, the rate of exchange shall be the
rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Joint Book
Runners could purchase United States dollars with such foreign currency on the
business day preceding that on which the judgment becomes a final judgment.
