SECTION 2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
represents and warrants to the Underwriter as follows:
(a) The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") and has filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") a registration
statement on Form S-3 (the file number of which is set forth in Schedule I
hereto), which has become effective, for the registration under the Act of
the Offered ---------- Certificates. Such registration statement, as
amended to the date of this Agreement, meets the requirements set forth in
Rule 415(a)(l) under the Act and complies in all other material respects
with Rule 415(a)(1). The Company proposes to file with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act a supplement to the form of prospectus
included in such registration statement relating to the Offered
Certificates and the plan of distribution thereof and a revised form of
prospectus (the "Revised Basic Prospectus") and has previously advised you
of all further information (financial and other) with respect to the
Company to be set forth therein. Such registration statement, including the
exhibits thereto, as amended to the date of this Agreement, is hereinafter
called the "Registration Statement"; such prospectus in the form in which
it appears in the Registration Statement, as revised by the Revised Basic
Prospectus, is hereinafter called the "Basic Prospectus"; and such
supplement to the Basic Prospectus, in the form in which it shall be filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424, is hereinafter called the
"Prospectus Supplement" and, collectively with the Basic Prospectus, the
"Final Prospectus." Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the
Basic Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and
include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12
of Form S-3 which were filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), on or before the date of this Agreement, or
the issue date of the Basic Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case
may be; and any reference herein to the terms "amend," "amendment" or
"supplement" with respect to the Registration Statement, the Basic
Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include
the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the date of this
Agreement, or the issue date of the Basic Prospectus or the Final
Prospectus, as the case may be, and deemed to be incorporated therein by
reference.

that such information included an untrue statement of 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 and have terminated their old purchase contracts and entered
into new purchase contracts with purchasers of the Offered Certificates,

purchasers at the time of entry into the first such new purchase contract,
including any information that corrects such material misstatements or
omissions ("Corrective Information").

however, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the

accordance with its terms, subject, as to the enforcement of remedies, to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership
and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to general
principles of equity (regardless of whether the enforcement of such

property or assets of the Company (except as required or permitted pursuant
thereto or hereto), pursuant to any material mortgage, indenture, loan
agreement, contract or other instrument to which the Company is party or by
which it is bound, nor will such action result in any violation of any
provisions of any applicable law, administrative regulation or
administrative or court decree, the certificate of incorporation or by-laws
of the Company. The Company is not in violation of its certificate of
incorporation, in default in any material respect in the performance or
observance of any material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition

lease, trust agreement, transfer and servicing agreement or other
instrument to which a party or by which it may be bound, or to which any
material portion of its property or assets is subject.
(l) No legal or governmental proceedings are pending to which the
Company is a party or of which any property of the Company is subject,

Prospectus.
(b) The Underwriter represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
Company, that:
In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has
implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a "Relevant Member State"), it has
not made and will not make an offer of Certificates to the public in that
Relevant Member State prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to
the Offered Certificates which has been approved by the competent authority in
that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant
Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member
State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, except that it may, with
effect from and including the relevant implementation date, make an offer of
Certificates to the public in that Relevant Member State at any time:
(i) to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to
operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorized or
regulated, whose corporate purpose is solely to invest in securities;
(ii) to any legal entity which has two or more of (1) an average
of at least 250 employees during the last financial year; (2) a total
balance sheet of more than (euro)43,000,000 and (3) an annual net
turnover of more than (euro)50,000,000, as shown in its last annual or
consolidated accounts; or
(iii) in any other circumstances which do not require the
publication by the issuer of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the
Prospectus Directive.
For the purposes of this representation, the expression an "offer of
Certificates to the public" in relation to any Offered Certificates in any
Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of
sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Certificates to be
offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the
Certificates, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure
implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State and the expression
"Prospectus Directive" means the European Commission Directive 2003/71/EC and
includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State.
It has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only
communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in
investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the United Kingdom
Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the "FSMA")) received by it in
connection with the issue or sale of the Offered Certificates in circumstances
in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the issuing entity.
7
It has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA
with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Offered Certificates in,
from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.
SECTION 5. Covenants of the Company. The Company hereby covenants and
agrees with the Underwriter that:
(a) Prior to the termination of the offering of the Offered
Certificates, the Company will not file any amendment of the Registration
Statement or supplement (including the Final Prospectus) to the Basic
Prospectus unless the Company has furnished the Underwriter a copy for
their review prior to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment
or supplement to which the Underwriter reasonably objects. Subject to the
foregoing sentence, the Company will cause the Final Prospectus to be filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424. The Company will advise the
Underwriter promptly (i) when the Final Prospectus shall have been filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424, (ii) when any amendment to the
Registration Statement relating to the Offered Certificates shall have
become effective, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment
of the Registration Statement or amendment of or supplement to the Final
Prospectus or for any additional information, (iv) 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 (v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification
with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Offered
Certificates for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening
of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its best efforts
to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain as
soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.
(b) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Offered
Certificates is required to be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as
a result of which the Final Prospectus as then amended or supplemented
would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it shall be
necessary to amend or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the
Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, the Company
promptly will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the first
sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement
which will correct such statement or omission or an amendment which will
effect such compliance and will use its best efforts to cause any required
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement containing such
amendment to be made effective as soon as possible.
(c) The Company will furnish to the Underwriter and counsel for the
Underwriter, without charge, executed copies of the Registration Statement
(including exhibits thereto) and each amendment thereto which shall become
effective on or prior to the Closing Date and, so long as delivery of a
prospectus by the Underwriter or dealers may be required by the Act, as
many copies of the Final Prospectus and any amendments thereof and
supplements thereto as the Underwriter may reasonably request. The Company
will pay the expenses of printing all documents relating to the initial
8
offering, provided that any additional expenses incurred in connection with
the requirement of delivery of a market-making prospectus, if applicable,
will be borne by the Underwriter.
(d) The Company will furnish such information as may be required and
otherwise cooperate in qualifying the Offered Certificates for sale under
the laws of such jurisdictions as the Underwriter may reasonably designate
and to maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the
distribution of the Offered Certificates; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction
where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would subject
it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where it
is not now so subject.

obligations of the Underwriter to purchase the Offered Certificates shall be

quality of the Offered Certificates; (ii) any downgrading in the ratings of
the securities of any Servicer or the Master Servicer by any "nationally
recognized statistical rating organization" (as such term is defined for

Closing Date of an executive officer of the Company in which such officer

The Company will provide or cause to be provided to the Underwriter such

to counsel for the Underwriter.
If any condition specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled
when and as required to be fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Underwriter by notice to the Company at any time at or prior to the Closing
Date, and such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other
party except as provided in Section 7.
SECTION 7. Reimbursement of the Underwriter's Expenses. If the sale of the
Offered Certificates provided for herein is not consummated because any
condition to the obligations of the Underwriter set forth in Section 6 hereof is
not satisfied or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the
Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof
other than by reason of a default by the Underwriter, the Company will reimburse
the Underwriter upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been reasonably incurred by
the Underwriter in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Offered
Certificates.
SECTION 8. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter
and any person who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of either
the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which they or either of them may become
subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory
13
law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of
or are based upon (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration
of the Offered Certificates as originally filed or in any amendment
thereof, or in the Basic Prospectus or the Final Prospectus or the
Disclosure Package, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any
Issuer Information (as defined in Section 12(b)) contained in any Free
Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of the Underwriter or in any
Free Writing Prospectus which is required to be filed pursuant to Section
12(e) or Section 12(g), or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact required to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, which was not
corrected by information subsequently supplied by the Depositor to the
Underwriter at any time prior to the time of sale, and agrees to reimburse
the Underwriter and any such controlling person for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action and (3) any
static pool information prepared by the Company and incorporated by
reference into a Free Writing Prospectus in connection with the offering of
the Offered Certificates, to the extent not included above; provided,
however, that (i) the Company will not be liable in any such case 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 (A) therein in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on
behalf of the Underwriter specifically for use in connection with the
preparation thereof or (B) in any Current Report or any amendment or
supplement thereof, and (ii) such indemnity with respect to the Final
Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of the Underwriter (or any person
controlling the Underwriter) from whom the person asserting any such loss,
claim, damage or liability purchased the Offered Certificates which are the
subject thereof if such person did not receive a copy of the Final
Prospectus (or the Final Prospectus as amended or supplemented) excluding
documents incorporated therein by reference at or prior to the confirmation
of the sale of such Offered Certificates to such person in any case where
such delivery is required by the Act and the untrue statement or omission
of a material fact contained in the Basic Prospectus was corrected in the
Final Prospectus (or the Final Prospectus as amended or supplemented). This
indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company
may otherwise have.
(b) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company,
each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration
Statement and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of
either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing
indemnity from the Company to the Underwriter, but only with reference to
(A) written information relating to the Underwriter furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of the Underwriter specifically for use in the
preparation of the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity, or (B)
any Free Writing Prospectus (as defined in Section 12(a)) prepared by or on
behalf of the Underwriter, except that no such indemnity shall be available
14
for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions in respect thereof
resulting from any error in any Issuer Information (as defined in Section
12(b)) (an "Issuer Error") furnished by the Company to the Underwriter in
writing or by electronic transmission that was used in the preparation of
any Free Writing Prospectus, other than an Issuer Error as to which, prior
to the time of the sale of the Offered Certificates to the person asserting
a claim, the Company notified the Underwriter in writing of the Issuer
Error or provided in written or electronic form information superseding or
correcting such Issuer Error (in any such case, a "Corrected Issuer
Error"), and the Underwriter failed to notify such person thereof or to
deliver such person corrected Free Writing Prospectus. This indemnity
agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Underwriter may
otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set forth in
the Prospectus Supplement in the first sentence of the last paragraph on
the cover page, in the first sentence under the subheading "Risk
Factors--Limited Liquidity" and in the second, third and fifth paragraphs
under the heading "Method of Distribution" constitute the only information
furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter for inclusion in
the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity (other than any Free
Writing Prospectus furnished to the Company by the Underwriter).
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will,
if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party
will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified
party otherwise than under this Section 8. In case any such action is
brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying
party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled
to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may elect by written
notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the
aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense
thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party;
provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both
the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party
shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available
to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or
additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified
party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert
such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such
action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of
notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its
election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the
indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to
such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed
separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in
accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being
understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for
the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by the Underwriter
in the case of subparagraph (a), representing the indemnified parties under
subparagraph (a) who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying
15
party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable
time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying
party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at
the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that if clause (i) or
(iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel
referred to in such clause (i) or (iii).
(d) To provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in
which the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) or (b) of this
Section 8 is due in accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by
a court to be unavailable from the Company or the Underwriter on the
grounds of policy or otherwise, the Company or the Underwriter shall
contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities
(including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending same) to which the Company or the Underwriter
may be subject, as follows:
(i) in the case of any losses, claims, damages and liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) which do not arise out of or are not
based upon any untrue statement or omission of a material fact in any
Free Writing Prospectus, in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative benefit received by the Company or the
Underwriter; and
(ii) in the case of any losses, claims, damages and liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) which arise out of or are based upon
any untrue statement or omission of a material fact in any Free
Writing Prospectus, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative fault of the Company and the Underwriter in connection
with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault
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 in such Free Writing
Prospectus results from information prepared by the Company or the
Underwriter and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (d), no person guilty
of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who
controls the Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange
Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriter and each
person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the
Exchange Act, and each officer of the Company who shall have signed the
Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same
rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the preceding
sentence of this paragraph (d). Any party entitled to contribution will,
promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may
be made against another party or parties under this paragraph (d), notify such
party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so
notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom
contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have
hereunder or otherwise than under this paragraph (d).

SECTION 10. Representations and Indemnities to Survive.
The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and
other statements of the Company and its respective officers and of the

limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such Exchange, (ii) a
banking moratorium shall have been declared by federal authorities or (iii)
there shall have occurred any outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or

Underwriter, impracticable to market the Offered Certificates.
SECTION 12. Offering Communications; Free Writing Prospectuses.

requirements of Section 10(a) of the Act, the Underwriter shall not convey

required to be stated therein necessary to make the statements contained

to the extent such misstatements or omissions were the result of any
inaccurate Issuer Information supplied by the Company to the Underwriter

(j) The Company and the Underwriter each agree that any Free Writing
Prospectuses prepared by the Underwriter shall contain the following legend
and any other legend that the Underwriter shall deem necessary or
appropriate:
19
The depositor has filed a registration statement (including a
prospectus) with the SEC 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, the
issuing entity and this offering. You may get these documents for free
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 if you request it by
calling toll-free 0-000-000-0000 or you e-mail a request to
xx.xxxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx. The securities may not
be suitable for all investors. Banc of America Securities LLC and its
affiliates may acquire, hold or sell positions in these securities, or
in related derivatives, and may have an investment or commercial
banking relationship with the depositor.
The asset-backed securities referred to in these materials, and the
asset pools backing them, are subject to modification or revision
(including the possibility that one or more classes of securities may
be split, combined or eliminated at any time prior to issuance or
availability of a final prospectus) and are offered on a "when, as and
if issued" basis. You understand that, when you are considering the
purchase of these securities, a contract of sale will come into being
no sooner than the date on which the relevant class has been priced
and we have confirmed the allocation of securities to be made to you;
any "indications of interest" expressed by you, and any "soft circles"
generated by us, will not create binding contractual obligations for
you or us.
Because the asset-backed securities are being offered on a "when, as
and if issued" basis, any such contract of sale will terminate, by its
terms, without any further obligation or liability between us, if the
securities themselves, or the particular class to which the contract
relates, are not issued. Because the asset-backed securities are
subject to modification or revision, any such contract also is
conditioned upon the understanding that no material change will occur
with respect to the relevant class of securities prior to the closing
date. If a material change does occur with respect to such class, our
contract will terminate, by its terms, without any further obligation
or liability between us (the "Automatic Termination"). If an Automatic
Termination occurs, we will provide you with revised offering
materials reflecting the material change and give you an opportunity
to purchase such class. To indicate your interest in purchasing the
class, you must communicate to us your desire to do so within such
timeframe as may be designated in connection with your receipt of the
revised offering materials.
The information contained in these materials may be based on
assumptions regarding market conditions and other matters as reflected
herein. Banc of America Securities LLC (the "Underwriter") makes no
20
representation regarding the reasonableness of such assumptions or the
likelihood that any such assumptions will coincide with actual market
conditions or events, and these materials should not be relied upon
for such purposes. The Underwriter and its affiliates, officers,
directors, partners and employees, including persons involved in the
preparation or issuance of these materials, may, from time to time,
have long or short positions in, and buy and sell, the securities
mentioned herein or derivatives thereof (including options).
Information in these materials is current as of the date appearing on
the material only. Information in these materials regarding any
securities discussed herein supersedes all prior information regarding
such securities. These materials are not to be construed as an offer
to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy any security in any
jurisdiction where such an offer or solicitation would be illegal.
This free writing prospectus is being delivered to you solely to
provide you with information about the offering of the securities
referred to in this free writing prospectus and to solicit an offer to
purchase the securities, 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 securities until
we have accepted your offer to purchase securities. You may withdraw
your offer to purchase securities at any time prior to our acceptance
of your offer.
The information in this free writing prospectus supersedes information
contained in any prior similar free writing prospectus relating to
these securities prior to the time of your commitment to purchase.
This free writing prospectus is not an offer to sell or solicitation
of an offer to buy these securities in any state where such offer,
solicitation or sale is not permitted.
The Company and the Underwriter each agree that any Free Writing Prospectus
prepared by the Underwriter and that is not an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or
that does not contain Issuer Information shall also contain the following
legend:
Neither the issuer of the securities nor any of its affiliates
prepared, provided, approved or verified any statistical or numerical
information presented herein, although that information may be based
in part on loan level data provided by the issuer or its affiliates.
(k) The Company and the Underwriter agree to retain all Free Writing
Prospectuses that they have used and that are not required to be filed
pursuant to this Section 12 for a period of three years following the
initial bona fide offering of the Certificates.
21
(l) The Underwriter covenants with the Depositor that after the final
Prospectus is available the Underwriter shall not distribute any written
information concerning the Offered Certificates to a prospective purchaser
of Offered Certificates unless such information is preceded or accompanied
by the final Prospectus.
SECTION 13. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall
be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or

SECTION 14. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the Company, the Underwriter, 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 Offered Certificates from the Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor
by reason merely of such purchase.
SECTION 15. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS,
WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW (BUT WITH REFERENCE TO
SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, WHICH BY ITS TERMS
APPLIES TO THIS AGREEMENT).
SECTION 16. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. The Company
acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Offered
Certificates pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the
public offering price of the Offered Certificates and any related discounts and
commissions, is an arm's-length commercial transaction between the Company, on
the one hand, and the Underwriter on the other hand, and the Company is capable
of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and
conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in
connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to
such transaction the Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal
