Ladies
and Gentlemen:
Citicorp
Mortgage Securities, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CMSI”), proposes to sell to
you, as subordinated underwriter (the “Subordinated Underwriter”), the offered
class A-PO, X-0, X-0 and B-3 REMIC Pass-Through Certificates (the “class A-PO
and offered class B certificates”) described in Schedule I. The class A-PO and
offered class B certificates evidence ownership interests in a trust (the
“Trust”) consisting of the mortgage loans described in Schedule I (the “mortgage
loans”) and related property. The mortgage loans were originated or acquired by
the affiliates of CMSI identified in Schedule I (the “originators”), and will
have, at the close of business on the “cut-off date” specified in Schedule I,
the aggregate principal balance set forth in Schedule I. CMSI will elect to
treat the Trust, or one or more segregated pools of assets within the Trust,
as
one or more real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC”) for
purposes of federal income taxation. The class A-PO and offered class B
certificates are to be issued under a pooling and servicing agreement (the
“Pooling Agreement”), dated as of the cut-off date, between CMSI, as Depositor,
CitiMortgage, Inc. (“CMI”), as Servicer and Master Servicer, U.S. Bank National
Association, in its individual capacity and as Trustee (in such capacity, the
“Trustee”), and Citibank, N.A., in its individual capacity and as Paying Agent,
Certificate Registrar and Authentication Agent.
CMSI,
Citigroup Inc., and the Subordinated Underwriter agree as follows:
1. Purchase
and Sale
Subject
to the terms and conditions of, and in reliance upon the representations and
warranties made in, this Agreement, CMSI agrees to sell to the Subordinated
Underwriter, and the Subordinated Underwriter agrees to purchase from CMSI,
all
of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates at the purchase price set
forth in Schedule I.
2. Delivery
and Payment
CMSI
will
deliver one or more certificates representing class A-PO and each class of
offered class B certificates to the Subordinated Underwriter’s account at the
office, on
1
the
date
and at the time (the “closing date”) specified in Schedule I against payment by
the Subordinated Underwriter of the purchase price to or upon the order of
CMSI
in the manner provided in Schedule I. Unless otherwise specified in Schedule
I,
the class A-PO and offered class B certificates will be registered in the name
of Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), and the
interests of beneficial owners of such class A-PO and offered class B
certificates will be represented by book entries on the records of DTC and
its
participants. Definitive Certificates representing the class A-PO and offered
class B certificates will be available as set forth in Schedule I.
CMSI
will
have the class A-PO and offered class B certificates available for inspection
by
the Subordinated Underwriter in New York, New York, one business day prior
to
the closing date.
3. Registration
Statement and Prospectus
(a) CMSI
represents and warrants to the Subordinated Underwriter that CMSI has filed
a
registration statement (File No. 333-130333), including a prospectus, with
the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on Form S-3 that is
effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)
and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement
has
been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been initiated by the
Commission. CMSI further represents and warrants to the Subordinated Underwriter
that CMSI is not an “ineligible issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the
Securities Act, at the date specified in paragraph 3.ii of such
definition.
Such
registration statement, as revised, amended or supplemented, including by the
filing of the Prospectus (as defined below), will at the relevant date be the
“Registration Statement” at that date. As used in this Agreement, the
Registration Statement will include, at the date of their filing, any documents
filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)
that are incorporated by reference into the prospectus included in the
Registration Statement pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities
Act,
and the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus will refer to and include the filing
of
any document under the Exchange Act so incorporated by reference.
(b) The
Subordinated Underwriter will advise CMSI of the final structure of the class
A-PO and offered class B certificates sufficiently in advance of the closing
date so that CMSI can prepare a final prospectus relating to the class A-PO
and
offered class B certificates (the “Prospectus”) for delivery to the Subordinated
Underwriter no later than the closing date. CMSI will use its best efforts
to
deliver the Prospectus to the Subordinated Underwriter as soon as reasonably
practicable following the Subordinated Underwriter’s advice of the final
structure of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates. CMSI will file
the
Prospectus with the Commission pursuant to and in conformity with Rule 424
under
the Securities Act. References to the Prospectus at any time will refer to
the
Prospectus as amended or supplemented at such time. CMSI will,
2
prior
to
the termination of the offering of the class A-PO and offered class B
certificates (the “offering”), promptly advise the Subordinated
Underwriter
|
(i)
|
when
any amendment to the Registration Statement relating to the class
A-PO and
offered class B certificates has become effective or any revision
of or
supplement to the Prospectus has been
filed,
|
|
(ii)
|
of
any request by the Commission for an amendment of 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 or the institution or
threatening of any proceeding for that purpose,
and
|
|
(iv)
|
of
the receipt by CMSI of any notification with respect to the suspension
of
the qualification of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates
for
sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for such purpose.
|
CMSI
will
use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if
issued, to obtain its withdrawal as soon as possible. CMSI will not file prior
to the termination of the offering any amendment to the Registration Statement
relating to the class A-PO and offered class B certificates, or any revision
of
or supplement to the Prospectus, unless a copy has been furnished to the
Subordinated Underwriter for its review prior to filing.
(c) CMSI
represents and warrants to the Subordinated Underwriter that the Registration
Statement on each of the date of this Agreement, the closing date, and each
time
of sale (as defined below), and the Prospectus as of its date, the closing
date,
and each time of sale following the date of the Prospectus
|
(i)
|
will
conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities
Act
and the applicable rules and regulations of the
Commission,
|
|

Registration Statement will not include an untrue statement of a
material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and
|
|
(iii)
|
the
Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact
or omit
to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not
misleading, except that CMSI makes no representation or warranty
concerning the statements in Schedule I under the heading “Subordinated
Underwriter’s Statements to be Included in the Prospectus” furnished to
CMSI by or on behalf of the Subordinated Underwriter specifically
for use
in connection with the preparation of the Prospectus (the “Subordinated
Underwriter supplied Prospectus
information”).
|
3
For
purposes of clause (ii) of this section 3(c), the Prospectus will include static
pool information on a website for which a URL address or hyperlink was provided
in the Prospectus but which information is, pursuant to Item 1105(d) of
Regulation AB, not deemed to be part of the Prospectus or the Registration
Statement.
In
this
agreement, “time of sale” means the time of sale (as such term is used in Rule
159 under the Securities Act) of class A-PO and offered class B certificates
by
the Subordinated Underwriter to an investor.
(d) The
Subordinated Underwriter represents and warrants to CMSI that the Subordinated
Underwriter supplied Prospectus information does not include an untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they are made,
not misleading when considered in conjunction with the rest of the Prospectus.
CMSI acknowledges that the Subordinated Underwriter supplied Prospectus
information comprises the only written information furnished by or on behalf
of
the Subordinated Underwriter for inclusion in the Prospectus.
(e) If,
at any time when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act,
|
(i)
|
an
event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus at such time would
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material
fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made not misleading,
or
|
|
(ii)
|
the
Prospectus must be revised, amended or supplemented to comply with
the
Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder,
|
CMSI
will
promptly prepare and file with the Commission a revision, amendment or
supplement that corrects such statement or omission or effects such compliance.
CMSI will consult with the Subordinated Underwriter, to the extent reasonably
practicable, on the preparation of such revision, amendment or
supplement.
(f) CMSI
will furnish to the Subordinated Underwriter and its counsel, without charge,
so
long as delivery of the Prospectus is required under the Securities Act, as
many
copies of the Prospectus and any revisions or amendments thereof or supplements
thereto as reasonably requested.
(g) If
the third anniversary of the effective date of the Registration Statement occurs
within three months after the closing date, CMSI will take action as necessary
to permit the public offering and sale of the class A-PO and offered class
B
certificates as contemplated by this Agreement.

1105(d) or Regulation AB, the “CMSI free writing prospectus”). CMSI will
promptly deliver to the Subordinated Underwriter electronically in Portable
Document Format updated CMSI free writing prospectuses to correct any material
misstatements, or omissions to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made
not misleading, in previous CMSI free writing prospectuses. References to the
CMSI free writing prospectus at any time will refer to the CMSI free writing
prospectus most recently delivered to the Subordinated Underwriter (including
by
correction of static pool information on a website referred to in the CMSI
free
writing prospectus) sufficiently prior to such time as to reasonably permit
the
Subordinated Underwriter to deliver the CMSI free writing prospectus to the

investor
in reliance on the unsupplemented or uncorrected loan tape), will
not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light
of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading , except

such
untrue statement or omission was the result of an untrue statement
or
omission in, or a failure to provide structural
information.

Subordinated Underwriter acknowledges that, to the extent the listing of the
mortgage loans contains any nonpublic personal information, the Subordinated
Underwriter will be bound by the provisions of Rule 11 of Regulation S-P and
other applicable law regarding limits on redisclosure and reuse of such
information.
(d) The
Subordinated Underwriter represents and warrants to CMSI that any written

statements contained therein, when considered in conjunction with the CMSI
free
writing prospectus delivered to the investor, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, except that the

omission in information supplied by CMSI to the Subordinated Underwriter that

Subordinated Underwriter sufficiently prior to the time of sale as to reasonably
permit the Subordinated Underwriter to correct any statement made to the
investor based on such misstatement, or (B) the free writing prospectus
substantially restates a statement (which statement may include structural
information) in the Prospectus or CMSI free writing prospectus (a
“restatement”), and does not omit a statement in the Prospectus or CMSI free
writing prospectus necessary to make the restatement, when considered in
conjunction with the free writing prospectus and other information delivered

restatement was made, not misleading.

to
any investor prior to the time the Prospectus is filed with the SEC
unless
at the time of sale the Subordinated Underwriter delivers to the
investor
the CMSI free writing prospectus and the supplemental information
that is
then known or available to the Subordinated
Underwriter.
|
(g) The
Subordinated Underwriter will file with the Commission not later than the date
of its first use any free writing prospectus that is distributed by or on behalf
of the Subordinated Underwriter in a manner reasonably designed to lead to
its
broad, unrestricted dissemination. CMSI will provide the Subordinated
Underwriter with any filing information needed to complete such
filing.
(h) The
Subordinated Underwriter will, in conformity with Rule 433(g) under the
Securities Act, retain all free writing prospectuses that it has used in the
offering and that are not filed with the Commission for three years following
the initial bona fide
7
offering
of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates. If there is any litigation
or threatened litigation against CMSI or any of its affiliates with respect

efforts to cause any credit enhancement provider, derivative counterparty,
special servicer or credit risk manager arranged by the Subordinated Underwriter
in connection with the class A-PO and offered class B certificates to promptly
provide to CMSI such narrative disclosure, financial information, including
required accountants’ consents, and other information as CMSI may reasonably
request to enable CMSI to meet its disclosure and reporting obligations under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

been duly authorized, executed and delivered by CMSI and, assuming the valid

insolvency, reorganization or other laws relating to or affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights and by general equity principles.

|
|
(vii)
|
The
class A-PO and offered class B certificates have been duly authorized,
executed, issued, authenticated and delivered, and
are
|
11
validly
issued and outstanding and entitled to the benefits provided by the Pooling
Agreement;
|
(viii)
|
Assuming
that the class A-PO and B-1 certificates are rated at the time of
issuance
in one of the two highest rating categories by a nationally recognized
statistical rating organization, each such offered certificate at
such
time will be a “mortgage related security,” as defined in section 3(a)(41)
of the Exchange Act;
|
|
(ix)
|
The
Registration Statement is effective under the Securities Act, and,
to the
best knowledge of such counsel:
|
(A)
No
stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been
issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending
or have been threatened under the Securities Act.
(B)
Each
of the Registration Statement at its effective date and the closing date, and
the Prospectus at its date and the closing date (in each case, with the
exception of any information incorporated by reference therein and any
numerical, financial, statistical or quantitative data) appeared on its face
to
conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act
and
the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.
(C)
The
descriptions in the Prospectus and the Pooling Agreement at the closing date
of
the class A-PO and offered class B certificates, and of the aspects of certain
statutes as set forth in the Prospectus under the heading “Core prospectus—ERISA
considerations” and “Prospectus supplement—Additional ERISA considerations,”
are, to the extent that they constitute statements of matters of law or legal
conclusions with respect thereto, accurate in all material respects;
and
|
(x)
|
Such
other opinions with regard to secured transactions, bankruptcy, insolvency
and related matters as the Subordinated Underwriter reasonably
requests.
|
Such
opinion may express its reliance (1) as to factual matters on the
representations and warranties made by, and on certificates or other documents
furnished by officers of, the parties to this Agreement and the Pooling
Agreement, (2) as to legal matters relating to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, on an opinion, dated the closing date, of counsel
acceptable to the Subordinated Underwriter, and (3) as to legal matters
relating to secured transactions, bankruptcy, insolvency and related matters,
on
an opinion, dated the closing date, of Cadwalader, Xxxxxxxxxx &
Xxxx LLP, special bankruptcy counsel to
CMSI. Such opinion may assume the due authorization, execution and delivery
of
the instruments and documents referred to therein by the parties thereto other
than CMSI, CMI, Citibank, N.A., Citigroup Inc. and the originators. Such opinion
may be qualified as an opinion only on the General Corporation Law of the State
of
12
Delaware,
the laws of each state in which the writer of the opinion is admitted to
practice law, and the federal law of the United States.
(d) CMSI
has delivered to the Subordinated Underwriter a letter, dated the closing date,
of the General Counsel, Finance and Capital Markets of Citigroup Inc., to the
effect that in the course of such counsel’s review of the Registration Statement
and the Prospectus and discussion of the same with certain officers of CMSI
and
the originators and their auditors, no facts came to the attention of such
counsel that led such counsel to believe that
|
(i)
|
the
Registration Statement as of its effective date or the closing date
included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state
a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the
statements therein not misleading,
or
|
|
(ii)
|
the
Prospectus as of its date or the closing date, included an untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
necessary
in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not
misleading,
|
it
being
understood that such counsel need express no view as to any information
incorporated by reference or any financial, numerical, statistical or
quantitative data in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus.
(e) CMSI
has delivered to the Subordinated Underwriter an opinion, dated the closing
date, of Cadwalader, Xxxxxxxxxx &
Xxxx LLP, special tax counsel to CMSI, to
the effect that the statements in the Prospectus under the headings “Core
prospectus–Taxation of certificate holders,” “Core prospectus—Taxation of the
Trust,” and “Prospectus supplement—Federal income tax consequences,” to the
extent such statements summarize material tax consequences of the purchase,
beneficial ownership and disposition of the class A-PO and offered class B
certificates to the holders thereof described therein, are correct in all
material respects.
(f) The
Subordinated Underwriter have received from Cadwalader, Xxxxxxxxxx &
Xxxx LLP, counsel for the Subordinated
Underwriter, such opinion or opinions, dated the closing date, with respect
to
the issuance and sale of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates, the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and such other related matters as
the
Subordinated Underwriter may reasonably request.
(g) KPMP
LLP have furnished to the Subordinated Underwriter a letter, dated the closing
date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Subordinated Underwriter,
stating in effect that they have performed certain specified procedures, agreed
upon between KPMG LLP, CMSI and the Subordinated Underwriter, as a result of
which they have determined that the information of an accounting, financial
or
statistical nature with respect to “static pool information” contained on CMSI’s
website at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx relating to REMIC pass-through certificates
issued after January 1, 2006 and included in the Prospectus under Rule 312
of
the Commission’s
13
Regulation
S-T, agrees with the accounting records of the originators, excluding any
questions of legal interpretation
(h) KPMG
LLP have furnished to the Subordinated Underwriter a letter, dated the closing
date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Subordinated Underwriter,
stating in effect that:
|
(i)
|
They
have performed certain specified procedures, agreed upon between
KPMG LLP
CMSI and the Subordinated Underwriter, as a result of which they
have
determined that the information of an accounting, financial or statistical
nature (which is limited to accounting, financial or statistical
information derived from the general accounting records of the originators
and which is obtained from an analysis of a sample of the mortgage
loans)
set forth in the Prospectus under the caption “Prospectus
supplement—Summary—Series overview—the mortgage loans at May 1, 2007 (the
cut-off date)” and in the detailed description relating to such prospectus
supplement and the mortgage loans agrees with the accounting records
of
the originators, excluding any questions of legal
interpretation.
|
|
(ii)
|
They
have compared the data contained in a data sheet or computer tape
prepared
by CMI for the mortgage loans to information contained in the mortgage
loan files furnished by the originators and in such other sources
as will
be specified by them, based on an appropriate sampling thereof, and
found
such data and information to be in agreement, unless otherwise noted
in
such letter.
|
(i) If
there is more than one class of class A-PO and offered class B certificates,
KPMG LLP have furnished to the Subordinated Underwriter a letter, dated the
date
of the Prospectus, in form and substance satisfactory to the Subordinated
Underwriter, stating in effect that:
|
(i)
|
Using
the assumptions and methodology used by CMSI (which include and do
not
conflict with any assumptions and methodology set forth in the
Prospectus), all of which will be described by reference in such
letter,
they have recalculated the percentages and weighted average lives
set
forth in the Prospectus in the tables relating to the “Prospectus
supplement—Principal balance as percent of initial principal balance” for
each class of class A-PO and offered class B certificates at certain
percentages of the prepayment model to be set forth in the Prospectus,
compared the results of their calculations to the corresponding items
in
the respective table and found each such percentage and weighted
average
life set forth in each such table to be in agreement with the respective
results of such calculations.
|
|
(ii)
|
Using
the assumptions and methodology prescribed in the Prospectus, they
have
recalculated, for each distribution day (as defined in the Prospectus),
the aggregate of the amount of cash to be on deposit in
the
|
14
Trust
on
the determination day immediately preceding such distribution day and found
that
such aggregate amount equals or exceeds the aggregate amount of interest and
distributions in reduction of principal balance that is distributable on the
class A-PO and offered class B certificates on the following distribution day,
as recalculated by them.
|
(iii)
|
Using
the assumptions and methodology prescribed in the Pooling Agreement
and
the Prospectus, they have recomputed the last distribution day for
each
class of class A-PO and offered class B certificates and found such
dates
to be in agreement with those set forth in the
Prospectus.
|
|
(iv)
|
If
one or more classes of offered class B certificates will be entitled
to
receive distributions in respect of interest at other than a fixed
rate or
distributions in reduction of principal balance according to a schedule
of
planned or targeted balances, or have other characteristics which
give
rise to the use of tables in the Prospectus reflecting yield or cash
flow,
such letters will also set forth such other statements as are customarily
set forth by KPMG LLP in such letters with respect to such
classes.
|
|
(v)
|
Using
the assumptions and methodology used by CMSI set forth in the Prospectus,
all of which will be described by reference in such letter, they
have
recalculated the percentages set forth in the Prospectus in the tables
entitled “Prospectus supplement—Weighted average lives and yields to
maturity—Pre-tax yield to maturity” of classes B-2 and B-3, compared the
results of their calculations to the corresponding items in such
table and
found each such percentage set forth in such table to be in agreement
with
the results of such calculations.
|
(j) Subsequent
to the date hereof, there will not have occurred any change, or any development
involving a prospective change, in or affecting the business or properties
of
CMSI which the Subordinated Underwriter concludes, after consultation with
CMSI,
in the judgment of the Subordinated Underwriter, materially impairs the
investment quality of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates so as
to
make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the
delivery of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates as contemplated
by
the Prospectus.
(k) The
class A-PO and offered class B certificates have been rated at least the rating
or ratings specified in Schedule I by the rating agency or agencies specified
in
Schedule I and such ratings will not have been rescinded or placed under
review.
(l) CMSI
have furnished to the Subordinated Underwriter such further information,
certificates and documents as the Subordinated Underwriter may reasonably have
requested not less than three full business days prior to the closing
date.
If
any of
the conditions specified in this section 8 are not fulfilled in all material
respects when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions
and
certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement are not in all
material respects
15
reasonably
satisfactory in form and substance to the Subordinated Underwriter and its
counsel, this Agreement and all obligations of the Subordinated Underwriter
hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the closing date by
the
Subordinated Underwriter. Notice of such cancellation will be given to CMSI
in
writing, or by telephone or telegraph confirmed in writing.
9. Condition
to the Obligation of CMSI
The
obligation of CMSI to issue and sell the class A-PO and offered class B
certificates will be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
that
(a) on
the closing date, the offered class A (other than class A-PO) certificates
(as
described in the Prospectus) have been issued and sold under the Senior
Underwriting Agreement dated April 26, 2007 among CMSI, Citigroup Inc. and
HSBC
Securities (USA) Inc., and the class X-0, X-0 and B-6 certificates (as described
in the Prospectus) have been issued and sold under the Purchase Agreement dated
the date of this Agreement among CMSI, Citigroup Inc. and the purchaser thereof;
and
(b) the
Subordinated Underwriter has advised CMSI of the final structure of the class
A-PO and offered class B certificates sufficiently in advance of the closing
date so as to enable CMSI to prepare the Prospectus for delivery to the
Subordinated Underwriter by the closing date.
10. Indemnification
and Contribution
(a) In
this section 10,
|
(i)
|
“claims”
includes losses, claims, damages, expenses (including legal and other
expenses reasonably incurred in investigating or defending the claims,
and
damages resulting from the Subordinated Underwriter’s having to reform a
contract for the sale of securities to an investor) or liabilities,
joint
or several, (or actions in respect thereof) under the Securities
Act, the
Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation,
at
common law or otherwise, and
|
|
(ii)
|
a
“controlling person” of a party is a person that controls the party within
the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and
in the
case of CMSI includes any person who signed the Registration
Statement.
|
(b) CMSI
will indemnify and hold harmless the Subordinated Underwriter and each of its
controlling persons against any claims to which any of them becomes subject,
to
the extent such claims arise out of or are based upon a breach of any
representation or warranty given by CMSI to the Subordinated Underwriter in
section 3(a), 3(c) or 4(b).
(c) The
Subordinated Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless CMSI and each of
its
controlling persons against any claims to which any of them becomes subject,
to
the extent such claims are based upon breach of any express representation
or
warranty given by the Subordinated Underwriter to CMSI in section 3(d) or
4(d).
16
(d) The
indemnities in sections 10(b) and 10(c) will be in addition to any liability
that CMSI or the Subordinated Underwriter may otherwise have.
(e) If
a person entitled to indemnification under this section 10 is notified of any
action or threatened action involving a claim for which the person may be
entitled to seek indemnification or reimbursement under this section 10, the
person must promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the action.
However, such person’s failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
the indemnifying party from any liability to such person (i) under this
section 10 except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially
prejudiced by such failure, or (ii) otherwise than under this section
10.
The
indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in any such action, and
to
the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified
person promptly after being notified by the indemnified person of the action,
to
assume the defense thereof, with counsel selected by the indemnifying party
and
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified person. However, if the defendants
in
any such action include both indemnified persons and the indemnifying party,
and
an indemnified person reasonably concludes that there may be legal defenses
available to it and/or other indemnified persons that are different from or
additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified person
or persons may select a single separate counsel to assert such legal defenses
and to otherwise participate in the defense of the action on behalf of such
indemnified person or persons.
Upon
the
indemnifying party’s so assuming the defense of the action, the indemnifying
party will not be liable to the indemnified person in connection with the
defense thereof, except
|
(i)
|
for
the expenses of a single separate counsel to represent indemnified
persons
in accordance with the last sentence in the preceding paragraph,
or
|
|
(ii)
|
where
the indemnifying party does not employ counsel reasonably satisfactory
to
the indemnified person within a reasonable time after the indemnified
person notifies the indemnifying party of the
action.
|
The
indemnifying party will not be liable for a settlement of any proceeding
effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if
there is a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party will
indemnify the indemnified person from and against any loss or liability by
reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party will settle any
pending or threatened proceeding without the prior written consent of each
person who could seek indemnity under this section 10 with respect to such
proceeding, unless such settlement
|
(i)
|
does
not include a statement as to or admission of, fault, culpability
or a
failure to act by or on behalf of such person,
and
|
|
(ii)
|
includes
an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability
on
claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding.
|
17
(f) In
order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which
the indemnification provided for in this section 10 is due in accordance with
its terms but is legally unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an
indemnified person, CMSI and the Subordinated Underwriter will contribute to
the
aggregate claims to which CMSI and the Subordinated Underwriter may be subject
in an appropriate proportion to reflect both the relative benefits received
by
and the relative fault of CMSI and the Subordinated Underwriter, except
that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from
any
person who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative benefits
received by CMSI and the Subordinated Underwriter will be deemed to be in the
same proportion as the total net proceeds received by CMSI bears to the total
underwriting discount and commission received by the Subordinated Underwriter.
Relative fault will be determined by reference to whether any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state
a
material fact, or such inaccurate or untrue statement or representation, relates
to information supplied by CMSI or the Subordinated Underwriter, the intent
of
the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement, omission or representation. For purposes
of this section 10, each controlling person will have the same rights to
contribution as the related party. Any person entitled to contribution will,
promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding against such person for which a claim for contribution may be made
against a party under this section (f), notify the party from whom contribution
may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party will not relieve such
party from any other obligation it may have under this section (f) or otherwise.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subordinated Underwriter will not be required
to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at
which the class A-PO and offered class B certificates were offered to the public
exceeds the amount of any damages that the Subordinated Underwriter has
otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission.
11. Termination
This
Agreement will be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the
Subordinated Underwriter, by notice given to CMSI prior to delivery of and
payment for the class A-PO and offered class B certificates, if prior to such
time (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange has
been
suspended or materially limited, (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking
activities in New York is declared by either federal or New York State
authorities, or (iii) there is a material outbreak or escalation of hostilities
or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on the financial markets of
the
United States makes it, in the reasonable judgment of the Subordinated
Underwriter after consultation with CMSI, impracticable to market the class
A-PO
and offered class B certificates.
18
12. Representations
and indemnities to survive
The
respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other
statements of CMSI and Citigroup Inc. and their respective officers and of
the
Subordinated Underwriter 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 the Subordinated Underwriter, CMSI or Citigroup Inc. or any of the
officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in section 10 hereof,
and
will survive delivery of and payment for the class A-PO and offered class B
certificates. The provisions of sections 10 and 13 hereof will survive the
termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
13. Obligation
of Citigroup Inc.
Citigroup
Inc. agrees, in consideration of and as an inducement to the Subordinated
Underwriter’s purchase of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates from
CMSI, to indemnify and hold harmless the Subordinated Underwriter, and each
person who controls the Subordinated Underwriter against any failure by CMSI
to
perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, including any obligation
of
CMSI to the Subordinated Underwriter pursuant to sections 6 and 10 hereof,
after
receipt from the Subordinated Underwriter of written notice of any such
failure.
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 10 hereof and their respective successors and
assigns, and no other person will have any right or obligation
hereunder.
15. Applicable
law
This
Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the
State of New York.
16. Miscellaneous
This
Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings
relating to its subject matter. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof
may
be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by a writing signed by
the
party against whom enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination

ALT-A means
10- to 15- year fixed-rate Alt-A one- to four-family mortgage loans,
any
reference to 30 YR REG N/C means 20- to 30- year fixed-rate conventional
one- to four-family mortgage loans, any reference to 30 YR RELO N/C
means
20- to 30- year fixed-rate conventional one- to four-family mortgage
loans
that are originated through corporate relocation programs, any reference
to 30 YR REG N/C IO means 20- to 30- year fixed-rate conventional
one- to
four-family mortgage loans that have an interest-only period of ten
years
following origination, any reference to 30 YR NC ALT-A means

and
any reference to 30
YR NC ALT-A IO means
20- to 30- year fixed-rate Alt-A one- to four-family mortgage loans
that
have an interest-only period of ten years following origination.
The
aggregate principal balance of the mortgage loans in each pool is
shown on
the Trade Ticket under Trade Amount, and is subject to an upward
or
downward variance by closing of up to 5%. The weighted average per
annum
interest rate of the mortgage loans in each pool as of the cut-off
date is
expected to be the percentage shown for the pool under WAC—Final Pool on
the Trade Ticket, plus or minus the basis points per annum shown
on the
Trade Ticket. The weighted average remaining term to stated maturity
of
the mortgage loans in each pool as of the cut-off date is expected
to be
the number of months for the pool shown under WAM—Final Pool on the Trade
Ticket, plus or minus the number of months shown on the Trade Ticket,

Offered
certificates:
|
Senior
class A-PO (the “offered class A-PO certificates”) and subordinated class
X-0, X-0 and B-3 certificates (the “offered class B
certificates”).

(a) The
offered class A-PO certificates in each “group” (as defined in the Pooling
Agreement) have a principal balance equal to the percentage for the class
specified under SIZE for the related pool of the related Trade Amount specified
in the Trade Ticket, and
(b) Each
class of offered class B certificates has a principal balance equal to the
aggregate of the principal balance of its component classes. The principal
balance of a component class of a class of certificates equals the percentage
for such class specified under SIZE of the Trade Amount, as such SIZE and Trade
Amount are specified for the pool related to the group for the component
class on the Trade Ticket.
The
principal balance of each class of certificates is subject to upward or downward
variance at closing of up to 5%.
Class
A-PO certificates may be composite classes of certificates formed from

Subject
to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement among Citigroup Inc.,
CMSI and the underwriter, the underwriter will purchase the class A-PO and
offered class B certificates from CMSI upon issuance. The underwriter has
committed to purchase all of the class A-PO and offered class B certificates
if
any certificates are purchased. The underwriter will distribute the class A-PO
and offered class B certificates from time to time in negotiated transactions
or
otherwise at varying prices to be determined at the time of sale.
In
connection with the purchase and sale of the class A-PO and offered class B
certificates, the underwriter may be deemed to have received compensation from
CMSI in the form of underwriting discounts.
In

transactions that stabilize or maintain the market price of the class A-PO
and
offered class B certificates at a level above that which might otherwise prevail
in the open market. Such stabilizing, if commenced, may be discontinued at
any
time.
