(b) Any certificate designated as such signed by any officer of
the Company and delivered to the Underwriters or to counsel for the
Underwriters shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company to
the Underwriters as to the matters covered thereby.
2. Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions and in
reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the
Company agrees to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees
severally and not jointly to purchase from the Company, at the purchase price
set forth in Schedule I hereto, the principal amount of Securities set forth
opposite such Underwriter's name in Schedule II hereto, except that, if
Schedule I hereto provides for the sale of Securities pursuant to delayed
delivery arrangements, the respective principal amounts of Securities to be
purchased by the Underwriters shall be as set forth in Schedule II hereto
less the respective amounts of Contract Securities determined as provided
below. Securities to be purchased by the Underwriters are herein sometimes
called the "Underwriters' Securities" and Securities to be purchased pursuant
to Delayed Delivery Contracts as hereinafter provided are herein called
"Contract Securities".
If so provided in Schedule I hereto, the Underwriters are
authorized to solicit offers to purchase Securities from the Company pursuant
to delayed delivery contracts ("Delayed Delivery Contracts"), substantially
in the form of Schedule III hereto but with such changes therein as the
Company may authorize or approve. The Underwriters will endeavor to make such
arrangements and, as compensation therefor, the Company will pay to the
Underwriters, on the Closing Date, the percentage set forth in Schedule I
hereto of the principal amount of Securities for which Delayed Delivery
Contracts are made. Delayed Delivery Contracts are to be with institutional
investors, including commercial and savings banks, insurance companies,
pension funds, investment companies and educational and charitable
institutions. The Company will enter into Delayed Delivery Contracts in all
cases where sales of Contract Securities arranged by the Underwriters have
been approved by the Company but, except as the Company may otherwise agree,
each such Delayed Delivery Contract must be for not less than the
6
minimum principal amount set forth in Schedule I hereto, and the aggregate
principal amount number of Contract Securities may not exceed the maximum
aggregate principal amount number set forth in Schedule I hereto. The
Underwriters will not have any responsibility in respect of the validity or
performance of Delayed Delivery Contracts. The principal amount of Securities
to be purchased by each Underwriter as set forth in Schedule II hereto shall
be reduced by an amount that shall bear the same proportion to the total
principal amount of Contract Securities as the principal amount of Securities
set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the aggregate
principal amount set forth in Schedule II hereto, except to the extent that
you determine that such reduction shall be otherwise than in such proportion
and so advise the Company in writing; provided that the total principal
amount of Securities to be purchased by all Underwriters shall be the
aggregate principal amount set forth in Schedule II hereto less the aggregate
principal amount of Contract Securities.
3. Delivery and Payment. Delivery of and payment for the
Underwriters' Securities shall be made at the location, in the currency, on
the date and at the time specified in Schedule I hereto (or such later date
not later than five business days after such specified date as the
Underwriters shall designate), which date and time may be postponed by
agreement between the Underwriters and the Company or as provided in Section
9 hereof (such date and time of delivery and payment for the Underwriters'
Securities being herein called the "Closing Date"). Delivery of the
Underwriters' Securities shall be made to the Underwriters for the respective
accounts of the several Underwriters against payment by the several
Underwriters of the purchase price thereof to or upon the order of the
Company by a check or checks in Federal funds or by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account specified by the Company.
Certificates for the Underwriters' Securities shall be registered in such
names and in such denominations as the Underwriters may request not less than
the business day prior to the Closing Date.
The Company agrees to have the Underwriters' Securities available
for inspection, checking and packaging by the Underwriters in New York, New
York, not later than 1:00 PM on the business day prior to the Closing Date.

Underwriters propose to offer the Securities for sale to the public as set
forth in the Final Prospectus.
5. Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with the several
Underwriters that:
(a) Prior to the termination of the offering of the
Securities the Company will not file any amendment to the
Registration Statement or supplement (including the Final
Prospectus) to the Basic Prospectus, unless the Company has
furnished you a copy for your review prior to filing and will not
file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which you
reasonably object. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Company
will cause the Final Prospectus to be mailed to the Commission for
filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) or will cause the Final Prospectus
to be filed with the Commission pursuant to said Rule. The Company
will promptly advise the Underwriters (i) when the Final
Prospectus shall have been transmitted to the Commission for
filing pursuant to Rule 424(b), (ii) when any amendment to the
Registration Statement relating to the Securities
7
shall have become effective, (iii) of any request by the
Commission for any amendment of the Registration Statement or
amendment of or supplement to the Final Prospectus or for any
additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of
any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for
that purpose and (v) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification
of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation
or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company
will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop
order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal
thereof.
(b) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the
Securities is required to be delivered under the Act, any event
occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus as then amended
or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be necessary
to amend or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Act
or the rules thereunder, the Company promptly will prepare and
file with the Commission, subject to paragraph (a) of this Section
5, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or
omission or an amendment which will effect such compliance. The
Company will also promptly cause each such amendment or supplement
to be filed with each securities exchange, if any, on which any of
the Securities are listed.
(c) As soon as practicable, the Company will make generally
available to its security holders and to the Underwriters an
earning statement or statements of the Company and its
subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of
the Act and Rule 158 under the Act.
(d) The Company will furnish to the Underwriters and counsel
for the Underwriters, without charge, signed or conformed copies
of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto) and
each amendment thereto which shall become effective on or prior to
the Closing Date and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an
Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Act, as many copies
of each Preliminary Final Prospectus and the Final Prospectus and
any amendments thereof and supplements thereto as the Underwriters
may reasonably request. The Company will pay the expenses of
printing all documents relating to the offering.
(e) The Company will arrange for the qualification of the
Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the
Underwriters may designate, will maintain such qualifications in
effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities
and will arrange for the determination of the legality of the
Securities for purchase by institutional investors; provided,
however, that the Company will not be obligated to qualify to do
business as a foreign limited liability company in any state in
which it is not so qualified or to file a general consent to
service of process in any jurisdiction.
(f) Until the business day following the Closing Date, the
Company will not, without the consent of the Underwriters, offer,
sell or contract to sell, or announce the offering of, any debt
securities or warrants to purchase debt securities covered by the
8
Registration Statement or any other registration statement filed
by the Company under the Act.

obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Underwriters' Securities
shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the

provision of the laws of the United States applicable to the
Company or the Securities.
Such counsel shall state that nothing has come to the
attention of such counsel to cause such counsel to believe
that the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof
(other than the financial statements and other financial and
statistical information contained therein, as to which such
counsel need express no belief) at the time it became
effective and at the date of this Agreement contained an
untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading or that the Final
Prospectus, as amended or supplemented (other than the
financial statements and other financial and statistical
information contained therein, as to which such counsel need
express no belief), at the time the Final Prospectus or any
such amendment or supplement was issued or at the Closing
Date, included or includes an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely (A) as
to matters involving the application of the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the State of Michigan or the United
States, to the extent such counsel deems proper and specifies
in such opinion, upon the opinion of other counsel of good
standing believed by such counsel to be reliable and who are
satisfactory to the Underwriters (provided that such counsel
states that the Underwriters are justified in relying upon
such specified opinion or opinions), and (B) as to matters of
fact, to the extent such counsel deems proper, on
certificates of responsible officers of the Company and
public officials.
12
(c) The Underwriters shall have received from Xxxxx & Xxxx
LLP, counsel for the Underwriter, such opinion or opinions, dated
the Closing Date, with respect to the issuance and sale of the
Securities, this Agreement, the Indenture, any Delayed Delivery
Contracts, the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus and
other related matters as the Underwriters may reasonably require,
and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such
documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass
upon such matters.
(d) The Company shall have furnished to the Underwriters a
certificate of the Company, signed by an executive officer of the
Company, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of
such certificate have carefully examined the Registration
Statement, the Final Prospectus and this Agreement and that:
(i) the representations and warranties of the Company in
this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects
on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made
on the Closing Date and the Company has complied with all the
agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be
performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date;
(ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement, as amended, has been issued and no
proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the
Company's knowledge, threatened; and
(iii) except as disclosed in the Final Prospectus, since
the date of the most recent financial statements included in
the Final Prospectus, there has been no material adverse
change in the condition, financial or otherwise or in the
earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the
Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, or
of Chrysler Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries
considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising from
transactions in the ordinary course of business.
(e) Chrysler Corporation shall have furnished to the
Underwriters a certificate of Chrysler Corporation, signed by an
executive officer of Chrysler Corporation, dated the Closing Date,
to the effect that the signers of such certificate have examined
the disclosures contained in the Final Prospectus under the
headings "Information Concerning Chrysler Corporation" and (i)
such disclosures do not contain as of the date of such certificate
an untrue statement of a material fact and do not omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements made
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading and (ii) no event has occurred as of the date
of such certificate that would require such disclosures to be
amended or supplemented to comply with the Act or the rules
thereunder.
(f) At the time this Agreement is executed and at the Closing
Date, Deloitte & Touche LLP shall have furnished to the
Underwriters a letter or letters, dated respectively as of the
date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, in a form
heretofore agreed upon by the Underwriters and Deloitte & Touche
LLP.
13
(g) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which
information is given in the Registration Statement and the Final
Prospectus, there shall not have been (i) any changes in senior
term, subordinated term and other debt of the Company and its
Subsidiaries or capital stock of the Company or decreases in
shareholders' investment of the Company and its Subsidiaries or
decreases in total revenues or in total or per share amounts of
earnings before income taxes or of net earnings of the Company and
its Subsidiaries or (ii) any change, or any development involving
a prospective change, in or affecting the business or properties
of Chrysler Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries
considered as one enterprise or the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries considered as one enterprise and the effect of which,
in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph
(g), is, in the judgment of the Underwriters, so material and
adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with
the public offering or the delivery of the Securities as
contemplated by the Registration Statement and the Final
Prospectus.
(h) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have
furnished to the Underwriters such further information,
certificates and documents as the Underwriters may reasonably
request.
(i) The Company shall have accepted Delayed Delivery
Contracts in any case where sales of Contract Securities arranged
by the Underwriters have been approved by the Company.
If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not
have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this
Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or
elsewhere in this Agreement 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 cancelled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by
the Underwriters. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company
in writing or by telephone or telegraph confirmed in writing.
7. Payment of Expenses. The Company will pay all expenses incident
to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including (i) the

thereto, (ii) the printing or reproduction of this Agreement and the
Indenture, (iii) the printing or reproduction, preparation, issuance and
delivery of the certificates for the Securities to the Underwriters, (iv) the
fees and disbursements of the Company's counsel and accountants, (v) the
qualification of the Securities under state securities laws, including filing

Blue Sky Survey and any Legal Investment Survey, (viii) the fees and expenses
of the Trustee, including the fees and disbursements of counsel for the

with the rating of the Securities, and (x) the fees and expenses, if any,
incurred in
14
connection with the listing of the securities on the New York Stock Exchange
or any other national exchange.
If the sale of the Securities 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 the Securities.
8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who
controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange
Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which they or any of them 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 or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement for the registration of the Securities as originally
filed or in any amendment thereof, or in the Basic Prospectus, any
Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, or in any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them, as such expenses are incurred, in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that (i) the Company will not be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by
or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Underwriters specifically for use
in connection with the preparation thereof, and (ii) such indemnity with
respect to the Basic Prospectus or any Preliminary Final Prospectus shall not
inure to the benefit of any Underwriter (or any person controlling such
Underwriter) from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or
liability purchased the Securities which are the subject thereof if such
person did not receive a copy of the Final Prospectus (or the Final
Prospectus as amended or supplemented) excluding documents incorporated
therein by reference at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such
Securities to such person in any case where such delivery is required by the
Act and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in the
Basic Prospectus or any Preliminary Final Prospectus was corrected in the
Final Prospectus (or the Final Prospectus as amended or supplemented). This
indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company
may otherwise have.
(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, each of its managers, each of its officers who signs
the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within
the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the
foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with
reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to
the Company by or on
15
behalf of such Underwriter specifically for use in the preparation of the
documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. 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 [ ]
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.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying
party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party
will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified
party otherwise than under this Section 8. In case any such action is brought
against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to appoint
counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party to represent the indemnified
party in such action; 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 appoint counsel to defend such action and approval by the indemnified
party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate
counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with
the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however,
that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than
one separate counsel, approved by the Underwriters in the case of paragraph
(a) of this Section 8, representing the indemnified parties under such
paragraph (a) 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; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable,
such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such
clause (i) or (iii).
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) of
this Section 8 is due in accordance with its terms but is for any reason held
by a court to be unavailable from the Company on grounds of policy or
otherwise, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate
losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) to
which the Company and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such
proportion so that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion
represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount bears to the sum
of such discount and the purchase price of the Securities specified in
Schedule I hereto and the Company is responsible for the balance; provided,
however, that (y) in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided
in the agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the
16
Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting
discount applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder
and (z) 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 shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter,
and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act
or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the
Registration Statement and each manager of the Company shall have the same
rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to clause (y) 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).
9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters
shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be
purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to
purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their
obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be
obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions
which the principal amount of securities set forth opposite their names in
Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set
forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities
that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to
purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal
amount of Securities that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed
but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of
Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall
have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to
purchase any of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not
purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability
to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by
any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be
postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as the Underwriters
shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration
Statement and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements
may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any
defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any
nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
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 the Securities, if prior to such time
(i) trading in any of the Company's securities shall have been suspended by
the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities
generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited
or minimum prices shall have been established on such Exchange, (ii) a
banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York
State authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or material
escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on
the United States financial markets is such as to make it, in the judgment of
the Underwriters, impracticable to market the Securities.
17
11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective
agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of
the Company or its officers and of 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, managers or controlling persons referred to in
Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the
Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the
termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
12. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and
effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed,
delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to them at [ ], attention of:
[ ]; or, if sent to the Company, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed
and confirmed to it at 00000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000,
attention of: Secretary. No purchaser of any Securities from any Underwriter
or purchaser of any Contract Securities from the Company shall be deemed to
be a successor solely by reason of such purchase.
13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the
officers and managers and controlling persons referred to in Section 8
hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to
agreements made and to be performed in such State.

and issued in a denomination equal to the aggregate principal amount of
Securities to be purchased by the undersigned on the Delivery Date.
The obligation of the undersigned to take delivery of and make
payment for Securities on the Delivery Date, and the obligation of the
Company to sell and deliver Securities on the Delivery Date, shall be subject
to the conditions (and neither party shall incur any liability by reason of
