Ladies and Gentlemen:
X.X. Xxxxxx Xxxxx Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Depositor”), proposes to sell to the several Underwriters listed in Schedule I (the “Underwriters”), for whom X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC is acting as representative (the “Representative”), $720,790,000 principal amount of Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2011-C5, Classes A-1, A-2, A-3, A-SB and X-A (the “Offered Certificates”) as set forth in Schedule I. The Offered Certificates, together with the Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2011-C5, Classes X-B, A-S, B, C, D, E, F, G, NR and R (the “Private Certificates”) are collectively referred to herein as the “Certificates”. The Certificates will represent beneficial interests in a trust fund primarily consisting of a segregated pool of fixed-rate mortgage loans secured by commercial properties, as described in the Prospectus referred to below (the “Mortgage Loans”), and certain moneys received under each Mortgage Loan after the cut-off date for such Mortgage Loan, which shall be: (i) the related due date of such Mortgage Loan in September 2011, or (ii) September 1, 2011 with respect to those mortgage loans that were originated in August 2011 and have their first due date in October 2011. The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the provisions of a pooling and servicing agreement to be dated as of September 1, 2011 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among the Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Torchlight Loan Services, LLC as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association as trustee and as paying agent
(respectively, the “Trustee” and the “Paying Agent”) and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC as senior trust advisor (the “Senior Trust Advisor”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Depositor hereby confirms its agreement with the several Underwriters concerning the purchase and sale of the Offered Certificates, as follows:
At or prior to the time when sales to investors of the Offered Certificates were first made (the “Time of Sale”), the Depositor had prepared the following information (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”): (i) a free writing prospectus dated September 9, 2011 (the “Preliminary Free Writing Prospectus”), (ii) a draft Pooling and Servicing Agreement delivered to prospective investors dated September 9, 2011 (the “Draft PSA”) (iii) a structural and collateral term sheet dated September 9, 2011 (the “Term Sheet”) and (iv) each “free-writing prospectus” (as defined pursuant to Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (a “Free Writing Prospectus”) listed on Exhibit 1 hereto, if any. If, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Depositor and the Underwriters have determined that such information included an untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and the applicable Underwriters have terminated their old purchase contracts and entered into new purchase contracts with purchasers of the Offered Certificates, then “Time of Sale Information” will refer to the information available to purchasers at the time of entry into
2
the first such new purchase contract, including any information that corrects such material misstatements or omissions (“Corrective Information”).
When used in this Agreement, “Basic Documents” shall mean (i) the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (ii) the Certificates, (iii) the mortgage loan purchase agreement, to be dated as of September 1, 2011, between JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (in such capacity, “Seller”) and the Depositor (the “Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement”) and (iv) any other contract, agreement or instrument which is or is to be entered into by the Depositor on the Closing Date or otherwise in connection with any of the foregoing or this Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(a) The Depositor agrees to sell the Offered Certificates to the several Underwriters as provided in this Agreement, and each Underwriter, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Depositor, the respective principal amount of each class of the Offered Certificates set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Schedule I hereto at the Purchase Price set forth in Schedule I hereto, plus accrued interest on the actual principal amount thereof at the applicable Pass-Through Rate from September 1, 2011 to the Closing Date (as defined below). The Depositor will not be obligated to deliver any of the Offered Certificates except upon payment for all the Offered Certificates to be purchased as provided herein.
(b) The Depositor understands that the Underwriters intend to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Offered Certificates as soon after the effectiveness of this Agreement as in the judgment of the Representative is advisable, and initially to offer the Offered Certificates on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus. The Depositor acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters may offer and sell the Offered Certificates to or through any affiliate of an Underwriter and that any such affiliate may offer and sell any Offered Certificates purchased by it to or through any Underwriter.
(c) Payment for and delivery of the Offered Certificates will be made at the offices of Cadwalader, Xxxxxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP, 000 Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx at 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on September 29, 2011, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later than the fifth business day thereafter, as the Representative and the Depositor may agree upon in writing. The time and date of such payment and delivery is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”.
(d) Payment for the Offered Certificates shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by the Depositor to the Representative against delivery to the nominee of The Depository Trust Company, for the account of the Underwriters, of one or more global notes representing the Offered Certificates (collectively, the “Global Note”), with any transfer taxes payable in connection with the sale of the Offered Certificates duly paid by the Depositor.

(c) in any other circumstances which do not require the publication by the Depositor of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive.

11
subscribe the Offered Certificates, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State, and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State) and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State, and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.
Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, hereby further represents and agrees that it has not provided, as of the date of this Agreement, and covenants with the Depositor that it will not provide, on or prior to the Closing Date, to any Rating Agency or other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (within the meaning of the Exchange Act), any information, written or oral, relating to the Trust, the Offered Certificates, the Mortgage Loans, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Basic Documents or any other information, that could be reasonably determined to be relevant to determining an initial credit rating for the Offered Certificates (as contemplated by Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(C)), without the prior consent of the Depositor, and covenants with the Depositor that it will not provide to any Rating Agency or other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (within the meaning of the Exchange Act), any information, written or oral, relating to the Trust, the Offered Certificates, the Mortgage Loans, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Basic Documents or any other information, that could be reasonably determined to be relevant to undertaking credit rating surveillance for the Offered Certificates (as contemplated by Rule 17g-5(a)(iii)(3)(D)), without the prior consent of the Depositor; provided, however, that if an Underwriter receives an oral communication from a Rating Agency, such Underwriter is authorized to inform such Rating Agency that it will respond to the oral communication with a designated representative from the Depositor.
Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, hereby further represents and agrees, with respect to the United Kingdom, that:
(a) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Offered Certificates in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Depositor; and

19
pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7(e) to the contrary, neither Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co. (“Goldman”) nor Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC (“WFS” and, along with Goldman, each a “Subject Underwriter”) shall be obligated to make any contribution pursuant to this Section 7(e) in excess of the total fees received by it in connection with its acting as an Underwriter with respect to the Offered Certificates (such fees as to each such Underwriter, the related “Underwriter Fees”). In addition, if either Subject Underwriter incurs any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs and expenses for which it is entitled to contribution from another Underwriter in accordance with the terms of Section 7(e) hereof, and if contribution in accordance with Section 7(e) hereof (without regard to this paragraph) would result in such Subject Underwriter bearing any portion of those losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs and expenses in excess of such Subject Underwriter’s related Underwriter Fees, then the Depositor shall further contribute to such Subject Underwriter such additional amount as would result in
20
such Subject Underwriter’s bearing only such portion of those losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs and expenses as is equal to such Subject Underwriter’s related Underwriter Fees.
(a) Unless preceded or accompanied by a prospectus satisfying the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act, no Underwriter shall convey or deliver any written communication to any person in connection with the initial offering of the Offered Certificates, unless such written communication (1) is made in reliance on Rule 134 under the Securities Act, (2) is made in reliance on Rule 172 under the Securities Act, (3) constitutes a prospectus satisfying the requirements of Rule 430B under the Securities Act or (4) constitutes a Free Writing Prospectus.

(b) Each Underwriter shall deliver to the Depositor, no later than two business days prior to the date of first use thereof, (a) any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that contains any “issuer information”, as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act1 (“Issuer Information”) (which the parties hereto agree includes, without limitation, the Seller’s Information) and (b) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof that contains only a description of the final terms of the Certificates.
1 Such definition of “issuer information” is further clarified by footnote 271 to SEC Release No. 33,8591. See 70 Fed. Reg. 44,722, at 44,751 (August 3, 2005).
21
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Free Writing Prospectus that contains only ABS Informational and Computational Materials may be delivered by the Underwriters to the Depositor 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 Securities Act or (b) the date of first use of such Free Writing Prospectus.
(c) Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Depositor that the Free Writing Prospectuses to be furnished to the Depositor by the Underwriter pursuant to Section 8(b) will constitute all Free Writing Prospectuses of the type described therein that were furnished to prospective purchasers of Offered Certificates by the Underwriter in connection with its offer and sale of the Offered Certificates.
(d) Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Depositor that each Free Writing Prospectus required to be provided by it to the Depositor pursuant to Section 8(b), when read together with all other Time of Sale Information, did not, as of the Time of Sale, and will not as of the Closing Date, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit any material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided however, that the Underwriter makes no representation to the extent such misstatements or omissions were the result of any inaccurate Issuer Information, which information was not corrected by Corrective Information subsequently supplied by the Depositor or the Seller to the Underwriter prior to the Time of Sale.
(e) The Depositor agrees to file with the Commission the following:
(i) Any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus;
(ii) Any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof delivered by the Underwriter to the Depositor pursuant to Section 8(b); and
(iii) Any Free Writing Prospectus for which the Depositor 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 Depositor 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 8(e) by the Depositor 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 the description of the final terms of the Certificates shall be filed by the Depositor with the Commission within two 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 shall be filed by the Depositor with the Commission not later than the later of the due date for filing the final
22
Prospectus relating to the Offered Certificates pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or two business days after the first use of such Free Writing Prospectus;
(iii) Any Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Section 8(e)(iii) shall, if no payment has been made or consideration has been given by or on behalf of the Depositor for the Free Writing Prospectus or its dissemination, be filed by the Depositor with the Commission not later than four business days after the Depositor becomes aware of the publication, radio or television broadcast or other dissemination of the Free Writing Prospectus; and
(iv) The Depositor shall not be required to file (A) Issuer Information contained in any Free Writing Prospectus of an Underwriter or any other offering participant other than the Depositor, if such information is included or incorporated by reference in a prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus previously filed with the Commission that relates to the offering of the Certificates, or (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.
(g) Each Underwriter shall provide to the Depositor any Free Writing Prospectus that is used or referred to by it and 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 and the Depositor shall file such Free Writing Prospectus with the Commission.
(h) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8(g), each Underwriter shall provide to the Depositor, who shall then file with the Commission, any Free Writing Prospectus for which the 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 Depositor 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 Depositor or any other offering participant, not later than four business days after the Underwriter becomes aware of the publication, radio or television broadcast or other dissemination of the Free Writing Prospectus.
(i) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 8(e) and 8(g), neither the Depositor nor the Underwriters shall be required to file 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 Depositor and the Underwriters each agree that any Free Writing Prospectuses prepared by it shall contain a legend substantially in the following form:
The depositor has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents the depositor has filed with the SEC for more complete information
23
about the depositor, the issuing trust and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting XXXXX on the SEC Web site at xxx.xxx.xxx. Alternatively, the depositor, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling 0-000-000-0000 or emailing xxxx-xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx.
(k) (1) In the event that the Depositor becomes aware that, as of the Time of Sale, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale Information (such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus a “Defective Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”), the Depositor shall notify the Underwriters thereof within one business day after discovery and the Depositor 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”) and (2) in the event that any Underwriter becomes aware that, as of the Time of Sale, any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale Information (such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, 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 Depositor thereof within one business day after discovery and shall, if requested by the Depositor:
(A) If the Defective Free Writing Prospectus was an Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, prepare a Free Writing Prospectus with Corrective Information that corrects the material misstatement in or omission from the Defective Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (such corrected Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, a “Corrected Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus” and, together with the Corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a “Corrected Free Writing Prospectus”);
(B) Deliver the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus to each purchaser of an Offered Certificate which received the Defective Free Writing Prospectus prior to entering into a contract of sale with such purchaser;
(C) Notify such purchaser in a prompt fashion that any prior contract of sale with such purchaser has been terminated, and of such purchaser’s rights as a result of termination of such agreement;
(D) Provide such purchaser with an opportunity to enter into a new contract of sale on the terms described in the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus; and
24
(E) Comply with any other requirements for reformation of the original contract of sale, as described in Section IV.2.c of the Commission’s Securities Offering Reform Release No. 33-8591.
(l) Each Underwriter covenants with the Depositor that after the final Prospectus is available the Underwriter shall not distribute any written information concerning the Offered Certificates that contains Issuer Information to a prospective purchaser of Offered Certificates unless such information is preceded or accompanied by the final Prospectus.
(m) The Depositor and each Underwriter agree to retain all Free Writing Prospectuses that they have used and that are not required to be filed pursuant to this Section 8 for a period of three (3) years following the initial bona fide offering of the Offered Certificates.
10. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice to the Depositor, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by any of the New York Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that in the judgment of the Representative is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Offered Certificates on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus.
(a) If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the Offered Certificates that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Offered Certificates by other persons satisfactory to the Depositor on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Offered Certificates, then the Depositor shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Offered Certificates on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Offered Certificates of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Depositor may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Depositor or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Depositor agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not
25
