Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Money Store Inc., a New Jersey corporation (the "Company"), and
each of the Originators listed on Annex A hereto (each an "Originator" and
collectively, the "Originators") hereby confirm their agreement with Prudential
Securities Incorporated, and Xxxxxx Brothers Inc. (together, the
"Representatives") on behalf of the several Underwriters listed on Annex B

behalf of the Originators, of certificates entitled "The Money Store Asset
Backed Certificates, Series 1997-C, Class AF-1, Class AF-2, Class AF-3, Class
AF-4, Class AF-5, Class AF-6, Class AF-7, Class AF-8 (collectively, the "Pool I

Agreement"), among the Company, as Representative, Servicer and Claims
Administrator, the Originators and The Bank of New York, as trustee ("Bank of
New York" or, in its capacity as trustee under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the "Trustee"). The initial principal amount of each Class of Offered
Certificates will be as set forth on Annex B hereto. The Offered Certificates
represent beneficial interests in a trust fund (the "Trust Fund") that will
consist at the Closing Time (as defined in Section 2 hereof) primarily of four
sub-trusts, consisting of one pool of fixed rate first and second lien home
equity mortgage loans (the "Pool I Home Equity Loans"), one pool of adjustable
rate first lien home equity mortgage loans (the "Pool II Home Equity Loans"),
one pool of home improvement mortgage loans (the "Pool III Home Improvement
Loans"), certain of which Pool III Home Improvement Loans (the "FHA Loans") are
partially insured by the Federal Housing Administration of the United States
Department of Housing and Urban Development under Title I of the National
Housing Act of 1934 and one pool of multifamily mortgage loans (the "Pool IV
Multifamily Loans"), amounts to be deposited in the Pre-Funding Account and
certain related properties. The Pool I Home Equity Loans, Pool II Home Equity
Loans and Pool III Home Improvement Loans and the Pool IV Multifamily Loans are
referred to herein collectively as the "Loans". Simultaneously with the issuance
and delivery of the Offered Certificates as contemplated herein, the Company, on
behalf of the Originators, will cause to be issued under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement certificates entitled "The Money Store Asset Backed
Certificates, Series 1997-C, Class R-1 and Class R-2" (the "Class R
Certificates"), and "The Money Store Asset Backed Certificates, Series 1997-C,
Class X" (the "Class X Certificates" and, together with the Offered Certificates
and Class R Certificates, the "Certificates"). The Certificates will evidence
fractional interests in the Trust Fund. The Class R Certificates and Class X
Certificates will be retained by the Company and TMS Special Holdings, Inc. and
are not being delivered to the Underwriters hereunder.
On or prior to the date of issuance of the Certificates, the Company
will obtain from MBIA Insurance Corporation ("MBIA") certificate guaranty
insurance policies (the "MBIA Policies") on behalf of the Trustee for the
benefit of the holders of the Pool I and Pool IV Certificates. An election will
be made to treat certain assets of the Trust Fund as a real estate mortgage
investment conduit ("REMIC") within the meaning of Section 860D of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall
have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Prior to the delivery of the Offered Certificates by the Company, on
behalf of the Originators, and the public offering thereof by the Underwriters,
the Company and the Representatives, as representatives of the Underwriters,
shall enter into an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the
"Pricing Agreement"). The Pricing Agreement shall be between the Company and the
Representatives, as representatives of the Underwriters, and shall specify such
applicable information as is indicated in, and be in substantially the form of,
Exhibit A hereto. The offering of the Offered Certificates will be governed by
this Agreement, as supplemented by the Pricing Agreement. From and after the
date of the execution and delivery of the Pricing Agreement, this Agreement
shall be deemed to incorporate the Pricing Agreement.
The Company and the Originators understand that the Underwriters
propose to make a public offering of the Offered Certificates as soon as the
Underwriters deem advisable after the Pricing Agreement has been executed and
delivered.
Section 1. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY AND THE
ORIGINATORS.
(a) The Company and the Originators represent and warrant to each

Date") as follows:
(i) The Company, on behalf of the Originators, has filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")

provided to the Representatives, as representatives of the
Underwriters, by the Company for use in connection with the offering
of the Offered Certificates which differs from the Prospectus on file

neither the Company nor the Originators make any representations or
warranties as to any information in any Computational Materials (as

Form S-3 under the 1933 Act, as set forth in the General Instructions
to Form S-3, have been satisfied with respect to the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus.

Agreement (as defined below) and (B) there have been no transactions
entered into by the Company or the Originators or any of their

and the Insurance Agreement dated as of September 1, 1997 among the

respects to the statements relating thereto contained in the
Prospectus.
(ix) The Certificates have been duly and validly authorized

by the Company and the Originators of the Basic Documents and, in the

under the terms of (A) any material obligation, agreement, covenant or
condition contained in any material contract, indenture, loan
agreement, note, lease or other material instrument to which the
Company or the Originators are a party or by which it may be bound, or
to which any of the property or assets of the Company or the
Originators are subject, or (B) any law, decree, order, rule or
regulation applicable to the Company and the Originators of any court
or supervisory, regulatory, administrative or governmental agency,
body or authority, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company

or violation of which would have a material adverse effect on the
Company or the Originators or the ability of the Company and the
Originators to perform their obligations under the Basic Documents
and, in the case of the Company, the Indemnification Agreement; and
neither the issuance or delivery of the Certificates, nor the
consummation of any other of the transactions herein contemplated, nor

action, suit or proceeding against or investigation of the Company or
any Originator, now pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company and
the Originators, threatened against the Company or any Originator,
before any court, governmental agency or body (A) which is required to
be disclosed in the Prospectus (other than as disclosed therein) or
(B) (1) asserting the invalidity of any Basic Document, the
Indemnification Agreement or the Certificates, (2) seeking to prevent
the issuance of the Certificates or the consummation of any of the
transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents, (3) which would
materially and adversely affect the performance by the Company or any

validity or enforceability of any Basic Document or the Certificates
and, in the case of the Company, the Indemnification Agreement or (4)
seeking to adversely affect the federal income tax attributes of the
Offered Certificates described in the Prospectus; all pending legal or
governmental proceedings to which the Company or any Originator is a
party or of which any of its property or assets is the subject which
are not described in the Prospectus, including ordinary routine
litigation incidental to the business, are, considered in the
aggregate, not material to the Company's or any Originator's ability
to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents and, in the case
of the Company, the Indemnification Agreement.
(xii) The Company and each of the Originators possess such
licenses, certificates, authorities or permits issued by the
appropriate state or federal regulatory agencies or governmental
bodies necessary to conduct the businesses now conducted by them
(except where the failure to possess any such license, certificate,
authority or permit would not materially and adversely affect the
holders of the Offered Certificates) and neither the Company nor any
of the Originators has received any notice of proceedings relating to
the revocation or modification of any such license, certificate,
authority or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject
of any unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would materially and
adversely affect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations
under the Basic Documents and the Indemnification Agreement.
(xiii) No authorization, approval or consent of any court or
governmental authority or agency is necessary in connection with the

(xiv) At the time of execution and delivery of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement by the Company, the Originators and the
Trustee, the Trustee (or, with respect to the Pool III Home
Improvement Loans, the Co-Trustee) will have acquired good title on
behalf of the Trust Fund to the related Loans, free and clear of any
security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, claim or
equity, and, upon delivery to the Underwriters of the Offered
Certificates which they purchase, the Underwriters will have good and
marketable title to such Offered Certificates free and clear of any
security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, claim or
equity.
(xv) The transfer of the Loans to the Trust Fund at Closing
Time will be treated by the Company and the Originators for financial
accounting and reporting purposes as a sale of assets and not as a
pledge of assets to secure debt.
(xvi) Each assignment of Mortgage required to be prepared
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is based on forms
recently utilized by the applicable Originator with respect to
mortgaged properties located in the appropriate jurisdiction and used
in the regular course of the applicable Originator's business. Upon
execution each such assignment will be in recordable form, and it is
reasonable to believe that it will be sufficient to effect the
assignment of the Mortgage to which it relates as provided in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(xvii) Any taxes, fees and other governmental charges that
are assessed and due in connection with the execution, delivery and
issuance of the Basic Documents, the Indemnification Agreement and the
Offered Certificates which have become due or will become due on or
prior to Closing Time shall have been paid at or prior to Closing
Time.
(xviii) The Trust Fund is not required to be registered as
an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
"1940 Act").

In the event that the pass-through rates for each Class of Offered Certificates
have not been agreed upon and the Pricing Agreement has not been executed and

reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case

Representatives may reasonably request for the purposes contemplated by the
1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the respective applicable rules and regulations
of the Commission thereunder.
(e) If any event shall occur as a result of which it is
necessary, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, to
amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the Prospectus not
misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is
delivered to a purchaser, the Company will forthwith amend or supplement
the Prospectus (in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the
Underwriters) so that, as so amended or supplemented, 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

purchaser, not misleading, and the Company will furnish to the

under the laws of, the States of California, Florida and New York.
(F) Assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
by the other parties thereto (including but not limited to the
Originators), the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificates,
the Insurance Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement, the Pricing
Agreement and this Agreement are legal, valid and binding agreements
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms against the
Company, subject (a) to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws relating to or affecting
creditors' rights generally and court decisions with respect thereto,
(b) to the understanding that no opinion is expressed as to the
application of equitable principles in any proceeding, whether at law
or in equity, and (c) to limitations of public policy under applicable
securities laws as to rights of indemnity and contribution thereunder.
(G) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any
court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
delivery and performance by the Company of, or compliance by the
Company with, this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the
Insurance Agreement, the Pricing Agreement and the Indemnification
Agreement or the offer, issuance, sale or delivery of the
Certificates, or the consummation of any other transactions by the
Company contemplated by this Agreement, the Insurance Agreement, the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Pricing Agreement and the
Indemnification Agreement, except as may be required under the blue
sky laws of any jurisdiction (as to which such counsel need not opine)
and such other approvals as have been obtained.
(H) Neither the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by, nor the fulfillment of the terms of, this Agreement,
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Insurance Agreement, the
Pricing Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement and the Certificates,
conflicts or will conflict with or results or will result in a breach
of or constitutes or will constitute a default under (a) the terms of
any material indenture or other material agreement or instrument of
which counsel has knowledge to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound or to which it is subject or (b) any statute or
order, rule, regulation, writ, injunction or decree of which counsel
has knowledge of any court, governmental authority or regulatory body
to which the Company is subject or by which it is bound.
(I) The delivery of each Mortgage Note and Mortgage by
an Originator as and in the manner contemplated by the Underwriting
Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is sufficient fully
to transfer to the Trustee (or, with respect to the Pool III Home
Improvement Loans, the Co- Trustee) for the benefit of the
Certificateholders all right, title and interest of the applicable
Originator in and to each such Loan including, without limitation, the
right to enforce each such Loan in accordance with its terms to the
extent enforceable by the related Originator at the time of such
delivery. With respect to the transfer of the Loans by the
Originators, such counsel shall express no opinion as to (i) whether
the laws of the State of New York would apply to the transfer of the
related Mortgages or (ii) the effectiveness of the transfer of the
Mortgages under the laws of the jurisdictions in which such
Originators are located (other than Mortgages relating to Mortgaged
Properties situated in California or New York) or in which the
Mortgaged Properties are situated (other than Mortgaged Properties
situated in California or New York) or the right of the Trustee and
the Co-Trustee to enforce such Mortgages.
(J) The Certificates, assuming due execution by the
Company, due authorization by the Trustee and delivery and payment
therefore pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, will be validly
issued and outstanding and entitled to the benefits of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
(K) Assuming compliance with all provisions of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, for federal income tax purposes, each
of REMIC I and REMIC II will qualify as a REMIC, the Offered
Certificates and the Class X Certificates will constitute "regular
interests" in REMIC I and the Class R-1 Certificates and the Class R-2
Certificates will each constitute a single class of "residual
interests" in REMIC I and REMIC II, respectively, within the meaning
of the REMIC Provisions. Assuming compliance with all provisions of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, for New York State and City tax
purposes, each of REMIC I and REMIC II will be classified as a REMIC
and not as a corporation, partnership or trust, in conformity with the
federal income tax treatment of such assets. Accordingly, each of
REMIC I and REMIC II will be exempt from all New York State and City
taxation imposed upon its income, franchise or capital stock.
Additionally, each of REMIC I and REMIC II will be exempt from all
State of California taxation imposed upon its income, franchise or
capital stock, other than the application of the annual minimum tax
under Section 23153 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code.
(L) An Offered Certificate owned by a "domestic
building and loan association" within the meaning of Section
7701(a)(19) of the Code will be considered in its entirety to
represent an interest in qualified assets within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(xi) of the Code so long as at least 95% of the
REMIC I's assets consist of assets described in Section
7701(a)(19)(C)(i) through (x) of the Code. If less than 95% of the
REMIC I's assets consist of such items, an Offered Certificate will be
considered qualified assets in the same proportion as the REMIC I's
assets which are such items. An Offered Certificate owned by a real
estate investment trust will be considered in its entirety an interest
in "real estate assets" within the meaning of Section 856(c)(5)(A) of
the Code and interest thereon will be considered in its entirety
"interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real property" within
the meaning of Section 856(c)(3)(B) of the Code in both cases so long
as at least 95% of the REMIC I's assets are "real estate assets" as
defined in Section 856(c)(3)(B) of the Code. If less than 95% of the
REMIC I's assets are "real estate assets," an Offered Certificate will
be considered "real estate assets" and the interest thereon will be
considered "interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real
property" in the same proportion as the REMIC I's assets which are
"real estate assets." An Offered Certificate will not be considered
"residential loans" for purposes of the residential loan requirement
of Section 593(g)(4)(B) of the Code. An Offered Certificate held by
another REMIC will be a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, assuming it is transferred to the
REMIC on its startup day in exchange for regular or residual interests
in such REMIC.
(M) The Pooling and Servicing Agreement is not required
to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The
Trust Fund created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is not
required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.
In rendering such opinion, Stroock & Stroock & Xxxxx LLP may rely on
certificates of responsible officers of the Company, the Trustee, the Co-Trustee
and public officials or, as to matters of law other than New York, Florida,
California or Federal law, on opinions of other counsel (copies of which

satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that:
(A) The Company has been duly organized and is validly
existing and is in good standing under the laws of the State of New
Jersey. Each Originator has been duly organized under the laws of its

Indemnification Agreement, and the Certificates each have been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by the Company; this Agreement, the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Insurance Agreement each have
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Originator and,
assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other
parties thereto, are legal, valid and binding agreements of the
Company and each Originator, as the case may be, and assuming such
agreements were governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, would
be enforceable in accordance with their respective terms against the
Company and each Originator, as the case may be, subject (a) to the
effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and
similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and
court decisions with respect thereto, (b) to the understanding that no
opinion is expressed as to the application of equitable principles in
any proceeding, whether at law or in equity, and (c) to limitations of
public policy under applicable securities laws as to rights of
indemnity and contribution thereunder.
(D) Neither the transfer of the Loans to the Trust
Fund, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by, nor the
fulfillment of the terms of, this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Insurance Agreement, or in the case of the Company, the
Pricing Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement and the Certificates,
(A) conflicts or will conflict with or results or will result in a
breach of or constitutes or will constitute a default under the
Certificates of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or any
Originator, or the terms of any material indenture or other material
agreement or instrument of which such counsel has knowledge to which
the Company or any Originator are a party or by which it is bound or
to which it is subject, or (B) results in, or will result in the
creation or imposition of any lien or encumbrance upon the Trust Fund
or upon the related Certificates, except as otherwise contemplated by
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or (C) any statute or order,
rule, regulations, writ, injunction or decree of any court,
governmental authority or regulatory body to which the Company or any
Originator is subject or to which it is bound.
(E) Except as set forth in the Prospectus Supplement,
there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to
the best of such counsel's knowledge, threatened against the Company
or any Originator which, in such counsel's judgment, either in any one
instance or in the aggregate, may result in any material adverse
change in the business, operation, financial condition, properties or
assets of the Company or an Originator or in any material impairment
of the right or ability of the Company or any Originator to carry on
its business substantially as now conducted or result in any material
liability on the part of the Company or any Originator or which would
draw into question the validity of this Agreement, the Pricing
Agreement, the Certificates, the Insurance Agreement, the
Indemnification Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of
any action taken or to be taken in connection with the transactions
contemplated thereby, or which would be likely to impair materially
the ability of the Company or any Originator to perform under the
terms of this Agreement, the Insurance Agreement or the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, or in the case of the Company, the Pricing
Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement or the Certificates.
(F) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any
court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
delivery and performance by the Company and each Originator of, or
compliance by the Company and each Originator with, this Agreement,
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Insurance Agreement or, in
the case of the Company, the Pricing Agreement, the Indemnification
Agreement or the Certificates, or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated therein, except such as may be required under the blue
sky laws of any jurisdiction and such other approvals as have been
obtained.
(G) The delivery by TMS Mortgage Inc. ("TMS") of each
Mortgage Note and Mortgage secured by real property located in New
Jersey as and in the manner contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement is sufficient fully to transfer to the Trustee (or, with
respect to the Pool III Home Improvement Loans, the Co-Trustee) for
the benefit of the Certificateholders all right, title and interest of
TMS in and to each such Loan including, without limitation, the right
to enforce each such Loan in accordance with its terms to the extent
enforceable by TMS at the time of such delivery.
(iii) The favorable opinion, dated as of Closing Time, of
Xxxxx Xxxx, counsel for MBIA, in form and substance satisfactory to
counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that:
(A) MBIA is a stock insurance corporation, duly
incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the State of New
York. MBIA is validly licensed and authorized to issue the MBIA
Policies and perform its obligations under the MBIA Policies in
accordance with the terms thereof, under the laws of the State of New
York.
(B) The execution and delivery by MBIA of the MBIA
Policies, the Insurance Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement
are within the corporate power of MBIA and have been authorized by all
necessary corporate action on the part of MBIA; the MBIA Policies have
been duly executed and is the valid and binding obligation of MBIA
enforceable in accordance with its terms except that the enforcement
of the MBIA Policies may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership and other similar
laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general principles
of equity.
(C) MBIA is authorized to deliver the Insurance
Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement, and the Insurance
Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement have been duly executed
and are the valid and binding obligations of MBIA enforceable in
accordance with their respective terms except that the enforcement of
the Insurance Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement may be
limited by laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium, receivership and other similar laws affecting creditors'
rights generally and by general principles of equity and by public
policy considerations relating to indemnification for securities law
violations.
(D) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any
state or federal court or govern-mental agency or body is required on
the part of MBIA, the lack of which would adversely affect the
validity or enforceability of the MBIA Policies; to the extent
required by applicable legal requirements that would adversely affect
the validity or enforceability of the MBIA Policies, the form of the
MBIA Policies has been filed with, and approved by, all governmental
authorities having jurisdiction over MBIA in connection with such MBIA
Policies.
(E) To the extent the MBIA Policies constitute
securities within the meaning of Section 2(l) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), it is a security that is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Act.
(F) The information set forth under the caption "MBIA
Policies and MBIA" in the Prospectus Supplement, relating to the offer
and sale of the Class A Certificates, to the Prospectus forming a part
of the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-20817) filed by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission and declared
effective on September 11, 1997, insofar as such statements constitute
a description of the MBIA Policies, accurately summarizes the MBIA
Policies.
In rendering this opinion, such counsel may rely, as to
matters of fact, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company, the
Trustee, the Co-Trustee MBIA and public officials. Such opinion may assume the
due authorization, execution and delivery of the instruments and documents
referred to therein by the parties thereto other than the MBIA.

that nothing has come to its attention that has caused it to believe
that the Registration Statement, as of the time it became effective,

(a) The Company and the Originators jointly and severally agree
to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Underwriters and each person, if any,
who controls each of the Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act as follows:
(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and
expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or
alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus or the
Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or
alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading;
(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and
expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount
paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or
proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or
threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any untrue statement
or omission described in clause (i) above, or any such alleged untrue
statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the written
consent of the Company; and
(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred
(including, subject to Section 6(c) hereof, the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel chosen by such Underwriter), reasonably
incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental
agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based
upon any untrue statement or omission described in clause (i) above,
or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that
any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;
provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance
upon and in conformity with the information referred to in clauses (x), (y) and
(z) of the immediately following paragraph; provided, further, such indemnity
with respect to the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to
the benefit of any Underwriter (or person controlling such Underwriter) from
whom the person suffering 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 Prospectus 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 1933 Act and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact
contained in any preliminary prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus.
(b) Each Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company and the Originators, their directors, each of the Company's and
Originator's officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the
indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred, but only
with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or
omissions, contained in (x) the second sentence of the third paragraph on the
third page which is located on the inside cover (discussing the risk of a lack
of secondary trading) of the Prospectus, (y) the second paragraph under the
heading "Underwriting" in the Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or
supplement thereto) and (z) any Computational Materials prepared by such
Underwriter, except to the extent of any errors in the Computational Materials
that are caused by errors in the pool information provided by the Company to the
applicable Underwriter. The parties hereto agree that no Underwriter shall be
under any liability to the Company, the Originators or any other person
identified in this paragraph (b) for Computational Materials prepared by any
other Underwriter.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 6 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 6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will
not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any
indemnified party except to the extent that it has been prejudiced in any
material respect by such failure or from any liability that it may have
otherwise than under this Section 6. 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 or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be
legal defenses available to it or them and/or other indemnified parties that 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 for
any legal or other expenses other than the reasonable costs of investigation
subsequently incurred 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, (ii) the indemnifying 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). After such notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for
the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such
indemnified party without the consent of the indemnifying party.
Section 7. CONTRIBUTION. In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in
Section 6 hereof is for any reason held to be unenforceable by the indemnified
parties although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Company and the
Originators jointly and severally, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the
other hand, shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims,
damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement
incurred by the Company and the Originators jointly and severally, on the one
hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, as incurred, in such proportions
that each Underwriter is responsible for that portion represented by the
difference between the purchase price paid by such Underwriter allocated to the
principal amount of Offered Certificates set forth next to each Underwriter's
name on Annex B hereto and the price at which such Underwriter sold such Offered
Certificates are sold to the public (or, with respect to Computational Materials
furnished by an Underwriter (except to the extent of any errors in the
Computational Materials that are caused by errors in the pool information
provided by the Company to the applicable Underwriter), the excess of the
principal amount of Offered Certificates set forth next to such Underwriter's
name on Annex B hereto over the difference between the purchase price paid by
such Underwriter for such Offered Certificates and the price at which such
Offered Certificates were sold to the public), and the Company and the
Originators shall be responsible for the balance; provided, however, that no
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was
not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Certificates
set forth next to the name of such Underwriter on Annex B hereto were offered to
the public exceeds the amount of any damages such Underwriter has otherwise been
required to pay in respect of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and
expenses. For purposes of this Section 7, each person, if any, who controls any
Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall have the same
rights to contribution as such Underwriter and each respective director of the
Company and the Originators, each officer of the Company and the Originators who
signed the Registration Statement, and each respective person, if any, who
controls the Company and the Originators within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the
Originators.
Section 8. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS TO SURVIVE
DELIVERY. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this
Agreement and the Pricing Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of
the Company and the Originators submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain
operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by
or on behalf of any of the Underwriters or any controlling person thereof, or by
or on behalf of the Company and the Originators, and shall survive delivery of
the Offered Certificates to the Underwriter.
Section 9. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.
(a) The Representatives, as representatives of the Underwriters,
may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company and the Originators, at
any time at or prior to Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the time of
execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which
information is given in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, any change, or
any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting particularly the
business or properties of the Company and the Originators considered as one
entity or MBIA which, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, as
representatives of the Underwriters, materially impairs the investment quality
of any of the Offered Certificates; (ii) if there has occurred any downgrading
in the rating of the debt securities of MBIA by any "nationally recognized
statistical rating organization" (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g) under
the 0000 Xxx) which, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, as
representatives of the Underwriters, materially impairs the investment quality
or marketability of any of the Offered Certificates or if any debt security of
MBIA has been put on the "watch list" of any such rating organization with
negative implications; (iii) if there has occurred any suspension or limitation
of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, or any
setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange or by any governmental
authority; (iv) if any banking moratorium has been declared by Federal or New
York authorities; or (v) if there has occurred any outbreak or escalation of
major hostilities in which the United States of America is involved, any
declaration of war by Congress, or any other substantial national or
international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of the Representatives,
as representatives of the Underwriter, the effects of any such outbreak,
escalation, declaration, calamity, or emergency makes it impractical or
inadvisable to proceed with completion of the sale of and payment for the
Offered Certificates.
(b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section,
such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party
except as provided in Section 4 hereof.
Section 10. DEFAULT BY ONE OF THE UNDERWRITERS. If any of the
Underwriters shall fail at Closing Time to purchase the Offered Certificates
which it is obligated to purchase hereunder (the "Defaulted Certificates"), the
remaining Underwriters (the "Non-Defaulting Underwriters") shall have the right,
but not the obligation, within one (1) Business Day thereafter, to make
arrangements to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted
Certificates upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Non-Defaulting
Underwriters shall have not completed such arrangements within such one (1)
Business Day period, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on
the part of the Non-Defaulting Underwriters.
No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any
defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.
In the event of any such default which does not result in a
termination of this Agreement, either the Non-Defaulting Underwriters or the
Company shall have the right to postpone Closing Time for a period not exceeding
seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement
or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.
Section 11. COMPUTATIONAL MATERIALS. (a) It is understood that any
Underwriter may prepare and provide to prospective investors certain
Computational Materials (as defined below) in connection with the Company's
offering of the Offered Certificates, subject to the following conditions:
(i) Each Underwriter shall comply with all applicable laws
and regulations in connection with the use of Computational Materials

(ii) As used herein, "Computational Materials" and the term
"ABS Term Sheets" shall have the meanings given such terms in the
Xxxxxx/PSA Letters, but shall include only those Computational
Materials that have been prepared or delivered to prospective

(iii) Each Underwriter shall provide the Company with
representative forms of all Computational Materials prior to their
first use, to the extent such forms have not previously been approved
by the Company for use by such Underwriter. The Underwriter shall
provide to the Company, for filing on Form 8-K as provided in Section
11(b), copies of all Computational Materials that are to be filed with
the Commission pursuant to the Xxxxxx/PSA Letters. The Underwriter may
provide copies of the foregoing in a consolidated or aggregated form.
All Computational Materials described in this subsection (a)(iii) must

(iv) If an Underwriter does not provide any Computational
Materials to the Company pursuant to subsection (a)(iii) above, such
Underwriter shall be deemed to have represented, 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 Certificates that is required to be filed with the
Commission in accordance with the Xxxxxx/PSA Letters.
(v) In the event of any delay in the delivery by any
Underwriter to the Company of all Computational Materials required to
be delivered in accordance with subsection (a)(iii) above, the Company
shall have the right to delay the release of the Prospectus to
investors or to any Underwriter, to delay the Closing Date and to take
other appropriate actions in each case as necessary in order to allow
the Company to comply with its agreement set forth in Section 11(b) to
file the Computational Materials by the time specified therein.
(vi) The Company shall file the Computational Materials (if
any) provided to it by each Underwriter under Section 11(a)(iii) with
