This
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") dated as of October 1,
2007
is between CitiMortgage, Inc. ("CMI" or the "Seller") and Citicorp Mortgage
Securities, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CMSI"). The Seller agrees
to sell, and CMSI agrees to purchase, the mortgage loans originated or acquired
by CMI as described and set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached
as
exhibit B (the "mortgage loans") to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated
as
of October 1, 2007 (the "Pooling Agreement"), between CMSI, CMI, U.S. Bank
National Association, a national banking association, in its individual capacity
and as Trustee (the "Trustee"), and Citibank, N.A., in its individual capacity
and as Paying Agent, Certificate Registrar and Authentication Agent, relating
to
the issuance of CMALT (CitiMortgage Alternative Loan Trust), Series 2007-A8
REMIC Pass-Through Certificates class A, class B and residual
certificates. Terms used without definition herein shall have the
respective meanings assigned to them in the Pooling Agreement or, if not
defined
therein, in the Underwriting Agreement dated September 24, 2007 (the
"Underwriting Agreement") among CMSI, Citigroup Inc. and Credit Suisse
Securities (USA) LLC (the "Underwriter").
1. Purchase
Price. The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the mortgage
loans shall consist of (a) cash in the amount of ______________% of the
aggregate scheduled principal balance thereof as of the cut-off date, plus
accrued interest thereon at the rate of 6.00% per annum on the mortgage loans,
from and including the cut-off date to but excluding the closing date, (b)
the
class A-IO, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, B-5 and B-6 certificates, and (c) the class
LR
certificates. Such cash shall be payable by CMSI to the Seller on the
closing date in same-day funds, and the Seller will receive on the closing
date:
(a) the class A-IO, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, B-5 and B-6 certificates and (b)
the
class LR certificates evidencing the residual interests in the
REMIC. If CMSI for any reason shall repay to the Underwriter any
portion of the price paid to CMSI by the Underwriter pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement, the Seller shall simultaneously and in the same manner
repay to CMSI a proportionate amount of the Purchase Price as such repayment
to
the Underwriter.
Upon
payment of the Purchase Price, the Seller shall transfer, assign, set over
and
otherwise convey to CMSI without recourse all of the Seller's right, title
and
interest in and to the mortgage loans, including all interest and principal
received or receivable by the Seller on or with respect to the mortgage loans
(other than payments of principal and interest due and payable on the mortgage
loans on or before the cut-off date and prepayments of principal on the mortgage
loans received or posted prior to the close of business on the cut-off date),
together with all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to the
proceeds of any related title, hazard or other insurance policies and Primary
Mortgage Insurance Certificates. The Seller agrees to deliver to CMSI
all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by CMSI
to
the Trustee under the Pooling Agreement and such other documents, instruments
and agreements as CMSI shall reasonably request. CMSI hereby directs
the Seller to execute and deliver to the Trustee assignments of the Mortgages
to
the Trustee (and endorsements of any Mortgage Notes relating thereto) in
recordable form. Such assignments and endorsements shall not affect
the rights of the parties hereto or to the Pooling Agreement.
1
2. Representations. The
Seller hereby represents and warrants to CMSI (i) that CMSI's representations
and warranties pursuant to the Pooling Agreement to the Trustee with respect
to
the mortgage loans are true and correct and (ii) that the Seller has not
dealt
with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person (other than CMSI
and
the Underwriter) who may be entitled to any commission or compensation in
connection with the sale of the related mortgage loans. The Seller
hereby agrees to cure any breach of such representations and warranties in
accordance with the terms of the Pooling Agreement.
3. Underwriting. The
Seller hereby agrees to furnish any and all information, documents,
certificates, letters or opinions reasonably requested by CMSI in order to
perform any of its obligations or satisfy any of the conditions on its part
to
be performed or satisfied at or prior to the closing date.
4. Costs. CMSI
shall pay all expenses incidental to the performance of its obligations under
the Underwriting Agreement, including without limitation (i) any recording
fees
or fees for title policy endorsements and continuations, (ii) the expenses
of
preparing, printing and reproducing the Registration Statement, the Prospectus,
the Underwriting Agreement, the Pooling Agreement and the certificates and
(iii)
the cost of delivering the certificates to the offices of The Depository
Trust
Company or the Underwriter, as the case may be.
5. Indemnification. The
Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless CMSI against
any and
all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) resulting from the Seller's
failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder, (ii) resulting from
the
inaccuracy of the Seller's representations and warranties herein or of CMSI's
representations and warranties in the Pooling Agreement or (iii) insofar
as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or demands for reimbursement
or contribution in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon information
relating to the Seller or the mortgage loans pursuant to the Underwriting
Agreement.
6. Purchase
and Sale; Security Interest. The parties hereto intend the
conveyance by the Seller to CMSI of all of its right, title and interest
in and
to the mortgage loans pursuant to this Agreement to constitute a purchase
and
sale and not a loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that such
conveyance is held not to constitute a sale under applicable law, it is intended
that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable
law
and that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to CMSI a first priority
security interest in all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and
to the
mortgage loans.
7. Notices. All
demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing, shall
be
effective only upon receipt and shall, if sent to CMSI be addressed to it
at
0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, X’Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, Attn: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx or if
sent to Seller be addressed to it at 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, X’Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx

8. Trustee
Beneficiary. The representations and agreements made by the
Seller in this Agreement are made for the benefit of, and may be enforced
by,

Trustee
and the holders of certificates, respectively, have rights against CMSI under
the Pooling Agreement in respect of representations and agreements made by
CMSI
therein.

Seller, by executing this Agreement below, hereby acknowledges receipt of
the

hereby acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller.

Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the
State of New York. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be
changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by a writing signed by the
party against whom enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination
is sought. This Agreement may not be changed in any manner which
would have a material adverse affect on holders of any class of certificates
without the prior written consent of the Trustee. The Trustee shall
be protected in consenting to any such change to the same extent provided
in
section 10 of the Pooling Agreement. This Agreement may be signed in any
number
of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, which taken together
shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall
bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by CMSI and the Seller
and
their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that
this Agreement cannot be assigned by either party without the consent of
the
other party hereto, and any assignment hereof without such consent shall
be
void.
