first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing properties (the
"Mortgage Loans"), that will have, as of the payment date occurring on each
Mortgage Loan in March 2006 (such date, the "Cut-off Date"), after taking into
account all payments of principal due on the Mortgage Loans on or before such

CGMRC and PNC Bank, respectively. Two separate real estate mortgage investment
conduit ("REMIC") elections will be made with respect to the Trust Fund for

servicer (the "Special Servicer") and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee (the
"Trustee" and, together with the Master Servicers and the Special Servicer, the
"Transaction Parties") and paying agent. Capitalized terms used herein but not
defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
1. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and
warrants to, and agrees with, the Underwriters that:
(a) The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") a registration statement (No. 333-125499) on Form
S-3 for registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
of mortgage pass-through certificates, including the Offered Certificates, which
registration statement has become effective, and copies of which, as amended to
the date hereof, have heretofore been delivered to you. Such registration
statement meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1) under the Act and
complies in all other material respects with such rule. The Company proposes to
file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act a supplement, dated
February 27, 2006, to the prospectus, dated February 27, 2006, relating to the
Offered Certificates and the method of distribution thereof and has previously
advised you of all further information (financial and other) with respect to the
Offered Certificates set forth therein. Such registration statement, including
the exhibits thereto and any information incorporated therein by reference, as
amended on the date hereof is hereinafter called the "Registration Statement";
such prospectus, in the form in which it will be filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act, is hereinafter called the "Base Prospectus";
such supplement to the Base Prospectus, in the form in which it will be filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 of the Act, is hereinafter called the
"Prospectus Supplement"; and the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement
together are hereinafter called the "Prospectus". The Company shall make a good
faith and reasonable effort to file the Prospectus within the time required
under Rule 424 of the Act and, in the event that the Company fails to timely
file the Prospectus, the Company shall file the Prospectus as soon as
practicable thereafter. The Company will not, without your prior consent, file
any other amendment to the Registration Statement or make any change in the Base
Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement until after the period during which a
prospectus is required to be delivered to purchasers of the Offered Certificates
under the Act (the "Prospectus Delivery Period"). The Company will file with the
Commission within fifteen days of the issuance of the Offered Certificates a
report on Form 8-K setting forth specific information concerning the Offered
Certificates (the "Form 8-K").
(b) As of or prior to the time when sales to purchasers of the
Offered Certificates were first made in accordance with Rule 159 of the Act,
which was approximately 3:15 pm (New York City time) on the date hereof (the
"Time of Sale"), the Company had prepared and filed with the Commission the
following information: (i) the Free Writing Prospectus (as defined below), dated
February 16, 2006, the first page of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, (the
"Preliminary FWP"); and (ii) the Free Writing Prospectus, dated February 24,
2006, the first page of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Revised
FWP"). The Preliminary FWP, the Revised FWP and any additional Disclosure
Information (as defined below) delivered to the investors prior to the Time of
Sale is collectively referred to as the "Time of Sale Information." If,
subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Company or the Underwriters
determine that, as to the investors in one or more Classes of the Offered
Certificates, such initial Time of Sale Information includes an untrue statement
of material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, and the Underwriters terminate their old purchase
contracts and enter into new purchase contracts with investors in such Classes
of the Offered Certificates, then "Time of Sale Information" shall refer to all
of the information conveyed to investors at the time of entry into the new
purchase contract (each, a "Subsequent Time of Sale"), including any information
that corrects such material misstatements or omissions ("Corrective
Information"). The Preliminary FWP and the Revised FWP are the only Issuer Free
Writing Prospectuses (as defined below) prepared by or on behalf of the Company
as of the date hereof.
(c) As of the date hereof, when the Registration Statement became
effective, as of the Time of Sale, when the Prospectus Supplement is first filed
pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act, at the time of any Subsequent Time of Sale,
when, prior to the Closing Date, any amendment to the Registration Statement
becomes effective, when any supplement to the Prospectus Supplement is filed
with the Commission, and on the Closing Date, (i) the Registration Statement, as
amended as of any such time, and the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented as
of any such time, complied, complies and will comply in all material respects
with the applicable requirements of the Act and the rules thereunder, (ii) the
Registration Statement, as amended as of any such time, did not, does not and
will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and did not, does not
and will not omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and the Prospectus, as
amended or supplemented as of any such time, did not, does not and will not
contain an untrue statement of a material fact and did not, does not and will
not omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading and (iii) the initial Time of Sale Information did not (when
evaluated as of the Time of Sale only), and the Time of Sale Information
existing at any Subsequent Time of Sale, if any, will not, as of such Subsequent
Time of Sale, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however,
that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to (A) the
Underwriter Supplied Information (as defined in Section 8(b) hereof), (B) the
Loan Sellers' Information (as defined in Section 8(a) hereof) or (C) the
Transaction Party Information (as defined in Section 8(a) hereof). Any Issuer
Information (as defined below) provided by the Company to any Underwriter as of
the date hereof for inclusion in an Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (as
defined below), did not, as of the date that such Issuer Information was so
provided, and does not, as of the date of this Agreement, contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be in
breach of this representation if the Company provided Issuer Information to the
Underwriters, correcting such untrue statement or omission of a material fact
contained in previously delivered Issuer Information, so long as the Company
delivered the corrected information to the Underwriter at a reasonable time
prior to the date hereof.
(d) The Company is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware with full power and
authority (corporate and other) to own its properties and conduct its business,
as described in the Prospectus, and to enter into and perform its obligations
under this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and is conducting
its business so as to comply in all material respects with all applicable
statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations of the jurisdictions in which it is
conducting business.
(e) The Company has not received and is not aware of (i) any request
by the Commission for any further amendment of the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus or for any additional information, (ii) 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
or (iii) 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.
(f) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company will have entered
into the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; this Agreement has been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by the Company, and the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, when delivered by the Company, will have been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement will constitute, valid and binding agreements of
the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency,
liquidation, moratorium, receivership, reorganization or similar laws affecting
the rights of creditors generally, (ii) general principles of equity, whether
enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (iii) public
policy considerations underlying the securities laws, to the extent that such
public policy considerations limit the enforceability of any provisions of this
Agreement that purport to provide indemnification from securities law
liabilities.
(g) The Offered Certificates and the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement: (i) conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof
contained in each of (A) the Prospectus, (B) the initial Time of Sale
Information and (C) any Issuer Information (as may have been revised and
corrected if such revised or corrected information was delivered a reasonable
time prior to the Time of Sale) delivered to any Underwriter for inclusion in an
Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus; and (ii) will conform in all material
respects to the descriptions thereof in the Time of Sale Information (as
constituted at any Subsequent Time of Sale). The Offered Certificates have been
duly and validly authorized by the Company, and will, when duly and validly
executed and authenticated by the Trustee and delivered to and paid for by the
Underwriters in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, be validly outstanding and entitled to the benefits of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.
(h) As of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of
the Company set forth in Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will be true and correct.
(i) Neither the issuance and sale of the Offered Certificates, nor
the consummation of any other of the transactions contemplated herein, nor the
fulfillment of any of the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this
Agreement, will result in the breach of any term or provision of the certificate
of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or conflict with, result in a
material breach, violation or acceleration of or constitute a default under, the
terms of any indenture or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or
any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound, or any statute,
order or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any
court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having
jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Neither the Company
nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to, bound by or in breach or violation of
any indenture or other agreement or instrument, or subject to or in violation of
any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative
agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it, which materially and
adversely affects the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under
each of this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(j) There are no actions or proceedings against, or investigations
of, the Company pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, before
any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (i) asserting the invalidity
of this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Offered
Certificates, (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Offered Certificates
or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (iii) which might materially and adversely
affect the performance by the Company of its obligations under, or the validity
or enforceability of, this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the
Offered Certificates or (iv) seeking to affect adversely the federal income tax
attributes of the Offered Certificates described in the Prospectus.
(k) There has not been any material adverse change in the business,
operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the Company since the
date of its latest audited financial statements which would have a material
adverse effect on the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under
this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(l) Any taxes, fees and other governmental charges in connection
with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement (other than income taxes, franchise taxes and recording
and filing fees) and the execution, delivery and sale of the Offered
Certificates have been or will be paid on or prior to the Closing Date.
(m) Immediately prior to the assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the
Trustee, the Company will have good title to, and will be the sole owner of,
each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any pledge, mortgage, lien, security
interest or other encumbrance of any other person, except for any retained
servicing.
(n) No authorization, approval or consent of or filing or
registration with, any court or governmental authority or agency is necessary in
connection with the offering, issuance or sale of the Offered Certificates
hereunder or the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of the
Pooling and servicing Agreement or this Agreement, except such as have been, or
as of the Closing Date will have been, obtained or completed, as applicable, or
such as may otherwise be required under applicable state securities laws in
connection with the purchase and offer and sale of the Offered Certificates by
the Underwriters and any recordation of the respective assignments of the
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
that have not yet been completed.
(o) The Company is not, and the issuance and sale of the Offered
Certificates in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus will not cause the
Company or the Trust Fund to be, subject to registration or regulation as an
"investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"1940 Act"); and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is not required to be
qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust
Indenture Act").
(p) Upon delivery to the Underwriters of the Offered Certificates
pursuant to this Agreement, each Underwriter will have good title to the Offered
Certificates purchased by such Underwriter, in each case free and clear of liens
granted by or imposed upon the Company.
(q) The consideration received by the Company upon the sale of the
Offered Certificates to the Underwriters will constitute at least reasonably
equivalent value and fair consideration for the Offered Certificates.
(r) The Company (i) will be solvent at all relevant times prior to,
and will not be rendered insolvent by, the sale of the Offered Certificates to
the Underwriters and (ii) is not selling the Offered Certificates to the
Underwriters with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the creditors of
the Company.
(s) The transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Trust and the sale of
the Offered Certificates to each of the Underwriters, at the Closing Date, will
be treated by the Company for financial accounting and reporting purposes as a
sale of assets and not as a pledge of assets to secure debt.
(t) The Company possesses all material licenses, certificates,
authorizations or permits issued by the appropriate state, federal or foreign
regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct business now operated by it,
and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the
revocation or modification of any such license, certificate, authorization or
permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable
decision, ruling or finding, would materially and adversely affect the
condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or business
prospects of the Company.
(u) the Company is not, and on the date on which the first bona fide
offer of the Certificates is made will not be, an "ineligible issuer," as
defined in Rule 405 under the Act.
2. Purchase and Sale. On the basis of the representations and
warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set
forth, the Company agrees to sell to the Underwriters, and each of the
Underwriters agrees severally, and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the
principal or notional amount of each class of Offered Certificates under its
name at the Purchase Price set forth in Schedule I hereto.
3. Delivery and Payment. Delivery of and payment for the Offered
Certificates shall be made on the date, location and time of delivery set forth
in Schedule I hereto, or such later date as DBS and CGM shall designate, which
date and time may be postponed by agreement between the Underwriters and the
Company (such date, location and time of delivery and payment for the Offered
Certificates being herein called the "Closing Date"). Delivery of the Offered
Certificates shall be made to the Underwriters against payment by the
Underwriters of the purchase price thereof in immediately available funds.
Delivery of such Offered Certificates shall be made through the facilities of
the depository or depositories set forth on Schedule I hereto. Any Offered
Certificates not in book-entry form shall be registered in such names and in
such denominations as any Underwriter, as applicable, may request not less than
three full business days in advance of the Closing Date.
The Company agrees to have the Offered Certificates available for
inspection, checking and packaging, as applicable, by the Underwriters in New
York, New York, not later than 1:00 p.m. on the business day prior to the
Closing Date.
4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several
Underwriters propose to offer the Offered Certificates for sale to the public as
set forth in the Prospectus and the Underwriters agree that all such offers and
sales by them shall be made in compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations. It is further understood that the Company, in reliance upon a
no-filing letter from the Attorney General of the State of New York granted
pursuant to Policy Statement 105, has not and will not file an offering
statement pursuant to Section 352-e of the General Business Law of the State of
New York with respect to the Offered Certificates. As required by Policy
Statement 105, each Underwriter therefore covenants and agrees with the Company
that sales of the Offered Certificates made by such Underwriter, as applicable,
in and from the State of New York will be made only to institutional accredited
investors within the meaning of Policy Statement 105.
5. Agreements. The Company agrees with the several Underwriters
that:
(a) The Company will promptly advise the Underwriters (i) when any
amendment to the Registration Statement shall have become effective, (ii) of any
request by the Commission for any amendment to 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 affecting the Offered Certificates or the institution or threatening
of any proceeding for that purpose and (iv) 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 not file any amendment to the
Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus unless the Company has
furnished to you a copy for your review prior to filing and will not file any
such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object until after
the period in which a prospectus is required to be delivered to purchasers of
the Offered Certificates under the Act. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the
Company will cause the Prospectus Supplement to be filed with the Commission in
accordance with Rule 424 of the Act. 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 during the Prospectus Delivery Period any event
occurs as a result of which the 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 Prospectus to comply with the Act or the rules under the Act,
the Company promptly will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to
paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement that will correct
such statement or omission or an amendment that will effect such compliance and,
if such amendment or supplement is required to be contained in a post-effective
amendment to the Registration Statement, will use its best efforts to cause such
amendment of the Registration Statement to be made effective as soon as
possible.
(c) The Company will furnish to the Underwriters and counsel for the
Underwriters, without charge, signed copies of the Registration Statement
(including exhibits thereto) and, during the Prospectus Delivery Period, as many
copies of the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement and any amendments
and supplements thereto as the Underwriters may reasonably request.
(d) The Company will furnish such information, execute such
instruments and take such action, if any, as may be required to qualify the
Offered Certificates for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the
Underwriters may designate and will maintain such qualification 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 that would
subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where
it is not now so subject.
(e) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
are consummated, the Company shall pay all costs and expenses in connection with
the transactions herein contemplated, including, but not limited to, the fees
and disbursements of its counsel and of counsel to the Underwriters, the fees
and disbursements of accountants for the Company, the costs and expenses in
connection with the qualification, or exemption from qualification, of the
Offered Certificates under state securities or "blue sky" laws (including filing
fees and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection therewith),
the preparation of any blue sky survey, any determination of the eligibility of
the Offered Certificates for investment by institutional investors and the
preparation of any legal investment survey, all fees and expenses incurred in
connection with the registration and delivery of the Offered Certificates under
the Act, and all other fees or expenses in connection with the preparation and
filing of the Registration Statement, any Free Writing Prospectus, the
Prospectus and amendments and supplements to any of the foregoing, including all
printing costs associated therewith, and the mailing and delivery of copies
thereof to the Underwriters and dealers, in the quantities specified above, all
costs and expenses related to the transfer and delivery of the Offered
Certificates to the Underwriters, including any transfer or other taxes payable
thereon, the cost of printing the Offered Certificates, the upfront costs and
charges of any transfer agent, registrar or depository, the fees and expenses of
the rating agencies incurred in connection with the issuance and sale of the
Offered Certificates, the out-of-pocket expenses of each Underwriter incurred in
connection with the purchase and sale of the Offered Certificates and all other
costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company
hereunder for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section 5(g).
(f) The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Underwriter in
providing investment banking services to the Company in connection with the
offering, including in acting pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, has acted
and is acting as an independent contractor and not as a fiduciary and the
Company does not intend such Underwriter to act in any capacity other than
independent contractor, including as a fiduciary or in any other position of
higher trust.
6. Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriters. The respective
rights and obligations of the Underwriters hereunder shall be subject to the
accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company

they were made, not misleading.
(c) a good standing certificate regarding the Company from the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, dated not earlier than 30 days

been rated as indicated on such Schedule I by the rating agency or agencies
indicated.
(k) The Underwriters shall have received from counsel for each Loan
Seller a favorable opinion, dated the Closing Date, in form and substance
satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters.
(l) All proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, and all documents incident hereto and thereto, shall be
satisfactory in form and substance to the Underwriters and counsel for the
Underwriters, and the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters shall have
received such additional information, opinions, certificates and documents as
they may reasonably request.
If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have
been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided by this Agreement,
or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this
Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form
and substance to the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters, this
Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled on,
or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Underwriters. Notice of such
cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing, by telephone or by either
telegraph or telecopier confirmed in writing.
7. Reimbursement of Underwriters' Expenses. If the sale of any
Offered Certificates provided for herein is not consummated because any
condition to the obligations of the Underwriters 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 any of the Underwriters, the Company will
reimburse the Underwriters severally upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been
incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of such
Offered Certificates.
8. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter,
its officers and directors, and each person, if any, who controls such
Underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") against any and all losses, claims,
damages, costs, expenses or liabilities, joint or several, to which any such
indemnified party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act or other
federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any part
of the Registration Statement when such part became effective, the Prospectus,
the Diskette (as defined below) or any revision or amendment thereof or
supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in (x) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as defined in
Section 9(e)(i) hereof) or (y) any "issuer information" (as defined in Rule
433(h) under the Act) ("Issuer Information") contained in (1) any Underwriter
Free Writing Prospectus (as defined in Section 9(a) hereof) prepared by or on
behalf of such Underwriter, or (2) any Free Writing Prospectus that is required
to be filed pursuant to Section 9(e)(iii), Section 9(e)(iv) or Section 9(h)
hereof (clauses (x) and (y) collectively, the "Issuer Disclosure Materials"), or
the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements therein (when read in connection with the other
initial Time of Sale Information or the other revised Time of Sale Information
in connection with a Subsequent Time of Sale), in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, which untrue statement or omission
referred to above in this clause (ii) was not corrected by information
subsequently supplied by the Company to such Underwriter a reasonable period of
time prior to the sale to the applicable investor of the Offered Certificates
(including without limitation a contract of sale). The Company shall reimburse
any such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending against
such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case if and 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 in reliance upon and in conformity with (A) the Underwriter
Supplied Information (as defined below), (B) information regarding the Mortgage
Loans that is contained in the Loan Detail (as defined below) or, to the extent
consistent therewith, the Diskette; (C) information regarding any Loan Seller,
the Mortgage Loans sold by such Loan Seller to the Company or the related
Mortgaged Properties to the extent such information is covered by the related
Loan Seller in the indemnification agreement entered into between such Loan
Seller, the Depositor and the Underwriters (the information in clauses (B) and
(C) referred to herein as the "Loan Seller Information"); or (D) information
regarding the Trustee, either Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to the
extent such information is covered by the related Master Servicer, Special
Servicer or Trustee in the indemnification agreement entered into between such
party, the Depositor and the Underwriters (such information, the "Transaction
Party Information") and (ii) such indemnity with respect to an untrue statement
or omission of a material fact made in any Issuer Disclosure Materials that are
part of the initial Time of Sale Information, shall not inure to the benefit of
any Underwriter (or any person controlling such Underwriter or any officer or
director of any Underwriter) asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability
based on a claim by a purchaser of the Offered Certificates, which are the
subject thereof, if and to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability
results from such person not receiving a copy of any subsequent Issuer
Disclosure Materials correcting such untrue statement or omission of a material
fact contained in any subsequent Issuer Disclosure Materials that are part of
the Time of Sale Information so long as the Company delivered the corrected
information to such Underwriter a reasonable time prior to the Time of Sale.
This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company
may otherwise have. "Loan Detail" shall mean the information set forth in Annex
A-1 and Annex A-2 to the Prospectus Supplement. "Diskette" shall mean the
information set forth on the diskette attached to the Prospectus.
(b) Each Underwriter will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, 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
such Underwriter, but only with reference to (A) the Underwriter Supplied
Information provided by or relating to such Underwriter, which was not corrected
by a subsequent Underwriter Supplied Information supplied to the Company by such
Underwriter prior to the sale to the applicable investor of Offered Certificates
(including without limitation a contract of sale), or (B) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Free Writing
Prospectus described in Sections 9(g) and 9(h) or omission or alleged omission
to state in any such Free Writing Prospectus material fact necessary in order to
make the statements therein (when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale
Information), in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, which was not corrected by a subsequent Free Writing Prospectus
supplied to the Company by such Underwriter prior to the sale to the applicable
investor of Offered Certificates (including without limitation a contract of
sale); provided, that no Underwriter shall be obligated to so indemnify and hold
harmless to the extent such losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or
liabilities arise out of or are based upon (A) an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained in or made in
reliance on and in conformity with the Loan Sellers' Information or the
Transaction Party Information or (B) any errors in the mathematical calculations
reflected in such Free Writing Prospectus to the extent such errors arise out of
or are based upon errors in such Loan Sellers' Information or the Transaction
Party Information; provided, further, that no Underwriter shall be liable for
any losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or liabilities arising out of or
based upon any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged
omission (including those of a quantitative nature) that arise out of or are
based upon an error or omission in any Issuer Information supplied by the
Company to the Underwriter, which error or omission in such Issuer Information
was not corrected by information subsequently supplied by the Company to such
Underwriter a reasonable period of time prior to the sale to the applicable
investor of Offered Certificates (including without limitation a contract of
sale). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any
Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set
forth in the second to last paragraph of the cover page and in the second
paragraph and the first, third, fourth and fifth sentences of the fifth
paragraph under the heading "Method of Distribution" in the Prospectus
constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the
several Underwriters for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing
indemnity (other than any Free Writing Prospectus furnished to the Company by
any Underwriter) (the "Underwriter Supplied Information"). Any Free Writing
Prospectus furnished to the Company by a particular Underwriter shall relate
exclusively to and be the several responsibility of such Underwriter, as
applicable, and no other.
(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 failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not
relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8, except to the extent that it has been
materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that 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. Upon
request of the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall retain counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any
others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the
fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding as incurred.
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 satisfactory to such indemnified party (which may
be counsel representing the indemnifying 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 immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the
indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one
separate counsel (in addition to local counsel), approved by the Underwriters in
the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 8 or the Company in the case of
paragraph (b) of this Section 8, representing the indemnified parties under such
paragraph who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not
have employed counsel 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. The
indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding
effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), but if settled with such consent or if there shall be a final
judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the
indemnified party, but only to the extent provided herein, from and against any
loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. If the indemnifying
party assumes the defense of any proceeding, it shall be entitled to settle such
proceeding with the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, or, if such settlement (i) does not include a
statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or
on behalf of any such indemnified party, and (ii) includes an unconditional
release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the
subject matter of such proceeding, without the consent of the indemnified party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 8 is applicable in accordance with its terms, but is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under such paragraph (a) or
(b) above, then in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or
liabilities referred to in such paragraph (a) or (b) above in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying
party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the
other from the offering of the Offered Certificates or (ii) if the allocation
provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not
only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying
party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the
other in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or
omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or
liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and any Underwriter on
the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds
from the issuance and sale of the Offered Certificates under this Agreement
(before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total
underwriting discounts received by such Underwriter. The relative fault of the
parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company
on the one hand, or such Underwriter on the other, the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission or alleged statement or omission, and any other equitable
considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The Company and the
Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if the amount of such
contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any
other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in this subsection (d).
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 an Underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the
Exchange Act and each officer and director of an Underwriter shall have the same
rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer and
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).
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no Underwriter
shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total underwriting discounts, commissions and other fees received by such
Underwriter in connection with the offering of the Offered Certificates exceeds
the amount of damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay
by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission.
The Underwriters' respective obligations to contribute pursuant to
this Section 8 are several in proportion to the respective amount of Offered
Certificates they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.
(e) [Reserved]
9. Offering Communications; Free Writing Prospectuses
(a) Unless preceded or accompanied by a prospectus satisfying the
requirements of Section 10(a) of the Act, no Underwriter shall convey or deliver
any written communication to any person in connection with the initial offering
of the Certificates, unless such written communication (i) is made in reliance
on Rule 134 under the Act, (ii) is made in reliance on Rule 172 under the Act,
(iii) constitutes a prospectus satisfying the requirements of Rule 430B under
the Act or (iv) constitutes a "free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 405
under the Act (a "Free Writing Prospectus"). Without limitation thereby, without
the prior written consent of the Company (which consent may be withheld for any
reason), no Underwriter shall prepare, convey or deliver in connection with the
initial offering of the Certificates any Free Writing Prospectus or "ABS
informational and computational material," as defined in Item 1101(a) of
Regulation AB under the Act ("ABS Informational and Computational Material" and
together with any Free Writing Prospectus "Disclosure Information"), in reliance
upon Rules 167 and 426 under the Act other than materials provided to it by the
Company, including Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses; provided, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, each Underwriter may use an Underwriter Free
Writing Prospectus that does not include Issuer Information without obtaining
the prior written consent of the Company.
(b) Each Underwriter shall deliver to the Company:
(i) any Free Writing Prospectus that was prepared by or on behalf of
such Underwriter or any affiliate thereof (each, an "Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus") that contains any Issuer Information by no later than two (2)
business days prior to the date of first use thereof or such later date as may
be agreed to by the Company,; and
(ii) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof prepared by or
on behalf of such Underwriter that contains only a description of the final
terms of the Offered Certificates by no later than the later of (A) the date
such final terms have been established for all classes of the Offered
Certificates or (B) the date of first use.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Free Writing Prospectus that
contains only ABS Informational and Computational Materials may be delivered by
an Underwriter to the Company not later than the later of (A) two business days
prior to the due date for filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
the Act or (B) the date of first use of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(c) Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Company that the Free
Writing Prospectuses to be furnished to the Company by such Underwriter pursuant
to Section 9(b) hereof will constitute all Free Writing Prospectuses of the type
described therein that were furnished to prospective investors by such
Underwriter in connection with its offer and sale of the Certificates.
(d) Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Company that each Free
Writing Prospectus (other than an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus) required to be
provided by it to the Company pursuant to Section 9(b) hereof did not, as of the
date such Free Writing Prospectus was conveyed or delivered to any prospective
investor, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading and that each such Free Writing Prospectus complied with Rules 164,
167, 426 and 433 under the Act; provided, however, that no Underwriter makes any
representation or warranty to the extent such misstatements or omissions are
based upon or arise out of an untrue statement or omission in the Issuer
Information supplied by the Company to such Underwriter, the Loan Seller
Information or the Transaction Party Information, which information was not
corrected by information subsequently supplied by the Company, the related Loan
Seller or the related Transaction Party to such Underwriter prior to the sale to
such investor of the Offered Certificates (including without limitation, by
means of a contract of sale).
(e) The Company agrees to file with the Commission the following:
(i) Any Free Writing Prospectus that constitutes an "issuer free
writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Act (each, an "Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus");
(ii) Any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof delivered by an
Underwriter to the Company pursuant to Section 9(b) hereof (but not any
subsequent Free Writing Prospectus containing only information prepared by or on
behalf of an Underwriter on the basis of or derived from Issuer Information
previously filed);
(iii) Any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof that contains a
description of the final terms of the Offered Certificates, after such terms
have been established for all classes in the offering; and
(iv) Any Free Writing Prospectus for which the Company or any person
acting on its behalf provided, authorized or approved information that is
prepared and published or disseminated by a person unaffiliated with the Company
or any other offering participant that is in the business of publishing, radio
or television broadcasting or otherwise disseminating communications.
(f) Any Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Section
9(e) hereof by the Company shall be filed with the Commission not later than the
date of first use of the Free Writing Prospectus, except that:
(i) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof required to be
filed that contains only a description of the final terms of the Offered
Certificates may be filed by the Company within two (2) days of the later of the
date such final terms have been established for all classes of Certificates and
the date of first use;
(ii) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof required to be
filed that contains only ABS Informational and Computational Material may be
filed by the Company with the Commission not later than the later of the due
date for filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act or two
(2) business days after the date of first use of such Free Writing Prospectus;
and
(iii) any Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed pursuant to
Section 9(e)(iv) hereof may, if no payment has been made or consideration has
been given by or on behalf of the Company for the Free Writing Prospectus or its
dissemination, be filed by the Company with the Commission not later than four
(4) business days after the Company becomes aware of the publication, radio or
television broadcast or other dissemination of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(g) Each Underwriter (with the reasonable cooperation of the Company)
shall file with the Commission any Free Writing Prospectus (other than a Free
Writing Prospectus required to be delivered to the Company pursuant to Section
9(b)) that is neither an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus nor contains Issuer
Information and that is used or referred to by such Underwriter or distributed
by or on behalf of such Underwriter in a manner reasonably designed to lead to
its broad, unrestricted dissemination not later than the date of the first use
of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(h) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9(g) hereof, each
Underwriter (with the reasonable cooperation of the Company) shall file with the
Commission any Free Writing Prospectus for which such Underwriter or any person
acting on its behalf provided, authorized or approved information that is
prepared and published or disseminated by a person unaffiliated with the Company
or any other offering participant that is in the business of publishing, radio
or television broadcasting or otherwise disseminating written communications and
for which no payment was made or consideration given by or on behalf of the
Company or any other offering participant, not later than four (4) business days
after such Underwriter becomes aware of the publication, radio or television
broadcast or other dissemination of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(i) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 9(e) (other than 9(e)(iii))
and 9(g) hereof, neither the Company nor any Underwriter shall be required to
file (A) Issuer Information contained in any Free Writing Prospectus of an
Underwriter or any offering participant other than the Company, if such
information is included or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus or a Free
Writing Prospectus previously filed with the Commission that relates to the
offering of the Certificates, (B) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof
that contains a description of the Certificates or the offering of the
Certificates which does not reflect the final terms thereof or (C) any Free
Writing Prospectus that does not contain substantive changes from or additions
to a Free Writing Prospectus previously filed with the Commission.
(j) The Company and the Underwriters each agree that any Free Writing
Prospectuses prepared by each such party shall contain the following legend:
"The depositor filed a registration statement (including a
prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC File No.
333-125499) for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you
invest, you should read the prospectus in the registration statement and other
documents the depositor has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
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
Securities and Exchange Commission 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 after filing if you request it by calling
toll free 1.800.503-4611 or by email to the following address:
xxxxx.xxxxxxx@xx.xxx."
(k) The Company and the Underwriters each agree to retain all Free Writing
Prospectuses that they have used and that are not required to be filed pursuant
to this Section 9 for a period of three (3) years following the initial bona
fide offering of the Certificates.
(l) In the event that the Company becomes aware, at any time between the
Time of Sale or any Subsequent Time of Sale and the Closing Date, that any
information in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Issuer Information
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein (when read in
conjunction with the other applicable Time of Sale Information), in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (a "Defective Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus"), the Company shall notify the Underwriters of such
untrue statement or omission within one business day after discovery (except for
any Underwriter that informed the Issuer of such untrue statement or omission)
and the Company shall, if requested by the Underwriters, prepare and deliver to
the Underwriters a Free Writing Prospectus that corrects the material
misstatement or omission in the Defective Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (such
corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a "Corrected Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus"). In the event that, at any time between the Time of Sale or any
Subsequent Time of Sale and the Closing Date, any Underwriter becomes aware that
any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus delivered thereby to an investor in any
Offered Certificates contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits
to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained
therein (when read in conjunction with the applicable Time of Sale Information),
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (a
"Defective Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus" and, together with a Defective
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a "Defective Free Writing Prospectus"), such
Underwriter shall notify the Company of such untrue statement or omission within
one business day after discovery (unless the Company was the party that informed
such Underwriter of such untrue statement or omission) and:
(i) The Underwriters shall, if requested by the Company:
(A) If the Defective Free Writing Prospectus was an
Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, prepare a Free Writing
Prospectus that corrects the material misstatement in or omission
from the Defective Free Writing Prospectus (together with a
Corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a "Corrected Free Writing
Prospectus"), provided, that if an Underwriter Free Writing
Prospectus and Issuer Free Writing Prospectus are both determined to
be a Defective Free Writing Prospectus as a result of the same
untrue statement or omission in each such document, then the Issuer
shall prepare a single Corrected Free Writing Prospectus correcting
both such Defective Free Writing Prospectuses;
(B) Either (i) deliver the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus
to each investor which received the Defective Free Writing
Prospectus prior to entering into a contract of sale with such
investor, clearly identifying or highlighting the Corrective
Information, or (ii) deliver the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus
to each investor which received the Defective Free Writing
Prospectus and has entered into a contract of sale, clearly
identifying or highlighting the Corrective Information, and (x)
notify in writing each such investor in a prominent fashion that the
prior contract of sale with such investor has been terminated, and
of such investor's rights as a result of termination of such
agreement and (y) provide such investor with an opportunity to
affirmatively agree in writing to purchase the Certificates on the
terms described in the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus; and
(C) Comply with any other requirements for reformation of the
original contract of sale with such investor, as described in
Section IV.A.2.c of the Commission's Securities Offering Reform
Release No. 33-8591.
(m) In the event that a Defective Free Writing Prospectus was an Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus and the defective information was not Underwriter
Supplied Information, Loan Seller Information or Transaction Party Information
and the Underwriters shall in good faith incur any costs to an investor in
connection with the reformation of the contract of sale with the investor, the
Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for such costs.
(n) Each Underwriter covenants with the Company that, upon reasonable
request, it will make available to the Company such personnel as are familiar
with the Underwriter's compliance procedures for the purpose of answering
questions concerning the Underwriter's practices and procedures for the
preparation and dissemination of written materials concerning the Offered
Certificates to prospective investors prior to the delivery of the final
Prospectus to such investors.
(o) Each Underwriter covenants with the Company that after the final
Prospectus is available the Underwriter shall not distribute any written
information concerning the Certificates to a prospective investor unless such
information is preceded or accompanied by the final Prospectus.
10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in
the absolute discretion of the Underwriters by notice given to the Company prior
to delivery of and payment for all Offered Certificates if prior to such time
(i) trading in securities of the Company or DBS or any affiliate of either on
any major securities exchange on which such securities are commonly traded shall
have been suspended or limited, or (ii) trading in securities generally on the
New York Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market shall have been suspended
or materially limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such
exchange, or (iii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by either
federal or New York State authorities, or (iv) there shall have occurred any
outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis, the
effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make
it, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriters, impractical to market the
Offered Certificates on the terms specified in this Agreement. In the event of a
termination pursuant to this Section 10, fees and expenses of the Underwriters
shall be paid by the Company pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement.
11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective
agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the
Company or its officers and the Underwriters 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 any Underwriter or the Company or any of
the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof,
and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Certificates. The
provisions of Sections 7, 8, and 9 hereof shall survive the termination or
cancellation of this Agreement.
12. Obligations of GACC. GACC agrees with the Underwriters, for the
