No. 11 ____ Individual Assignment Part 45 AFFIRMATION OF JASON C. DAVIS IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO COMPEL PRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS FROM MORGAN STANLEY I, JASON C. DAVIS, an attorney admitted to practice before the courts of the State of New York, affirm the following to be true under penalty or perjury, pursuant to Rule 2106 of the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules: 1. I am a member of the law firm Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP, attorneys for plaintiff China Development Industrial Bank ("CDIB"). 2. I submit this Affirmation in support of CDIB's Motion to Compel Production of Documents from Morgan Stanley. 3. CDIB has met and conferred in good faith with counsel for Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc (collectively, "Morgan Stanley") in an effort to resolve the issues that are the subject of this motion. See Dkt. No. 151. CDIB's good-faith efforts included telephonic meet-and-confer discussions, written correspondence and, on July 31, 2012, an in-person disclosure conference with counsel for Morgan Stanley, and the Court's law clerk, Mr. Jay Wilker. The in-person disclosure conference occurred with the benefit of letter briefing in advance of the conference. Id. 4. On July 31, 2012 at the Court-ordered disclosure conference, counsel for Morgan Stanley, James P. Rouhandeh, stated that the reason why he did not produce the Morgan Stanley document attached to the Froeba Report as Exhibit B was because it was "totally irrelevant." 5. On July 27, 2012, CDIB's investigator had a telephone conversation with Mr. Eric Kaplan, who used to work at Morgan Stanley and whose name appears on Exhibit B to the Froeba Report. That exhibit is an e-mail that United States District Court Judge Scheindlin ordered to be filed publicly in a different case. Mr. Kaplan told CDIB's investigator that Morgan Stanley employee Howard Hubler was the head of the group in which Morgan Stanley employees Steven Shapiro and Frank Telesca worked, and that Hubler was their ultimate boss, though there may have been other managers between Hubler and Shapiro and Telesca. On July 31, 2012 at the Court-1745397_1 ordered disclosure conference, counsel for Morgan Stanley confirmed that Shapiro and Telesca did work in Hubler's group. See Exhibit 33 hereto. All of this information is consistent with other facts summarized in CDIB's motion to compel, filed herewith. 6.

Traders at big Wall Street firms who dealt with Goldman felt certain that the firm did not reverse itself until the spring and early summer of 2007, after New Century, the nation's biggest subprime lender, filed for bankruptcy. If this is indeed when Goldman "got short," it would explain the chaos in both the subprime market and Goldman Sachs, perceived by Mike Burry and others, in late June. Goldman Sachs did not leave the house before it began to burn; it was merely the first to dash through the exit-and then it closed the door behind it. 210 .

Amazingly, it had nothing to do misgivings about the size of his gamble, had struck a deal with the guy with the wisdom of owning $16 billion in complex securities whose who ran the doomed Bear Stearns hedge funds, Raiph Cioffi.

It was a decision that wound up costing Morgan Stan~ey ers, an even bigger nearly $6 billion, and yet Morgan Stanley's CEO, John Mack, never got involved. "Mack never came and talked to Howie," says one of Hubler's been paid $25 million; in 2007, it was understood, he would make far more. closest associates. "The entire time, Howie n~ver had a single sit-down A month after Hubler and his traders improved the terms of trade with Mack."* By May 2007, however, there was a growing dispute between ~unk of GPCG's profits; In 2006, Hubler had between themselves and their employer, Morgan Stanley finally asked the uncomfortable question: What happened to their massive subprime mortgage market bet if lower-middle-class Americans * There is some dispute about the conversations between Hubler and Cruz. The version of events offered by people close to Zoe Cruz is t~at she was worried about the legal risk of doing business with Bear Steams's troubled hedge funds, and that Hubler never completely explained the risk of triple-. A-rated CDOs to her, and led her to believe that Morgan Stanley stood no chance of suffering a huge loss-probably because Hubler himself didn't understand the risk. Hubler's friends claim that Cruz seized effective control? of Hubler's trade and prevented him from ditching some large chunk of his triplecA CDOs. In my view, and in the view of Wall Street traders,Hubler's story line is far less plausible. "There's no fucking way he said, 'I have to get out now' and she said no," says one trader dose to the situation. "No way Howie ever said, 'If we don't get out now we might lose ten billion dollars.' Howie presented her with a case for not getting out." The ability of Wall Street traders to see.themselves in their success and their management in their failure would later be echoed, when their firms, which disdained the need for government regulation in good times, insisted on being rescued by government in bad times. Success was individual achievement; failure was a social problem. defaulted in greater than expected numbers? How. did the bet perform, for instance, using the assumption of losses generated by the most pessimistic Wall Street analyst? Up to. that point, Hubler's bet had been "stress tested" for scenarios in which subprime pools experienced losses of 6 percent, the highest losses from recent history. Now Hubler's traders were asked to imagine what would become of their bet if losses reached 10 percent. The demand came directly from Morgan Stanley'S chief risk officer, Tom Daula, and Hubler and his traders were angered and disturbed that he would issue it. "It was more than a little weird," says one of them. "There was a lot of angst about it. It was sort of viewed as, These folks don't know what they're talking about. If losses go to ten percent there will be, like, a million homeless people." (Losses in the pools Hubler's group had bet on would eventually reach 40 percent.) As a senior Morgan Stanley executive outside Hubler's group put it, "They didn't want 212 The Big Short A Death of Interest to show yo,u the results. They kept saying, That state of the world can't happen." It took Hubler's traders ten days to produce the result they really 213 are worth ninety-five, said one of the Morgan Stanley people on the phone call. didn't want to show anyone: Losses of 10 percent turned their compli- Our model says they are worth seventy, replied one of the Deutsche Bank people. cated bet in subprime mortgages from a projected profit of $1 billion Well, our model says they are worth ninety-five, repeated the into a projected loss of $2.7 billion.

The risk department had trouble relaxing, however. To them it seemed as if Hubler and his traders didn't fully un'derstand their own gamble. Hubler kept saying he was betting against the subprime bond market. But if so, why did he lose billions if it collapsed? As one senior Morgan Stanley risk manager put it, "it's one thing to bet on red or black and know that you are betting on red or black It's another to , bet on a form of red and not to know it." At which point Greg Lippmann just said, Dude, fuck your model. I'll make you a market. They are seventy-seventy-seven. You have three ch~ices. You can sell them back to me at seventy.

He'd a person involved in these discussions, "that a lot of people said it been allowed There was even some argument inside Deutsche Bank as to couldn't possibly be right. Morgan Stanley couldn't possibly owe us one point two billion dollars." They did, however. It was the beginning of a slide that would end just a few months later, in a conference call between Morgan Stanley's CEO and Wall Street's analysts. The defaults mounted, the bonds universally crashed, and the CDOs composed of the bonds followed. Several times on the way down, Deutsche Bank offered Morgan Stanley the chance to exit its trade. The first time Greg Lippmann called him, Howie Hubler might have exited his $4 billion trade with Deutsche Bank at a loss of $1.2 billion; the next time Lippmann called, the price of getting out had risen to $1.5 billion. Each time, Howie Hubler, or one of his traders, argue4 about the price, and declined to exit. "We fought with those cocksuckers aU the way down," says one Deutsche Bank trader. And, all the way down, the debt cQllectors at Deutsche resigni~ October 2007, with many millions of dollars the firm had promised him at the end of 2006, to prevent him from quitting. The total losses he left behind him were reported to the Morgan Stanley board as a bit more than $9 billion: the single largest trading loss in the history of Wall Street. Other firms would lose more, much more; but those losses were typically associated with the generation of subprime mortgage loans. Citigroup and Merrill Lynch and others sat on huge piles of the things when the market crashed, but these were the by-product of their CDO machines. They owned subprime mortgage-backed CDOs less for their own sake than for the fees that their deals would generate once they had sold them. Howie Hubler's loss was the result of a simple bet. Hubler and his traders thought they were smart guys put on earth to exploit the market's stupid inefficiencies. Instead, they simply contributed more to Bank sensed the bond traders at Morgan Stanley misunderstood their inefficiency. Retiring to New Jersey, with an unlisted number, Howie Hubler own trade.

(November 9, 2007) Morgan Stanley has dismissed at least one trader who contributed to billions of dollars of losses it suffered on investments tied to sub prime mortgages. Managing director Howard "Howie" Hubler, who had been running a proprietary trading unit that saw its fortunes crumble when the debt market took a dive this summer, was fired Nov. 2. Just days later, word got out that Morgan Stanley would join other Wall Street firms that have been taking huge writedowns on mortgage-related holdings. Morgan Stanley had set up Hubler's so-called global proprietary credit group in April 2006 to trade a range of structured products with an undisclosed amount of the bank's own money. His unit had been turning a handsome profit until the market tanked just over a year later. More firings are a virtual certainty. In fact, the jobs of all 20-30 staffers in Hubler's unit are in jeopardy, if they aren't gone already. "You always cut off the head first," one trader said. Morgan Stanley said Wednesday that it had lost $3.7 billion on investments related to subprime mortgages in the first two months of its fiscal fourth quarter, which began Sept. 1. A day earli er, The Wall Street Journal reported that two analysts had pegged the bank's probable writedowns at $3 billion to $6 billion for its entire fourth quarter. Unlike its rivals, Morgan Stanley doesn't appear to be taking most of those hits because it warehoused troubled assets or retained securities as an underwriter. Rather, the losses stem mainly from proprietary activities that left it with a hefty exposure to CDOs backed by pools of subprime-mortgage bonds. The extent to which the declines are directly linked to Hubler's team isn't clear, but it stands to reason that his group's activities played a major role. While Morgan Stanley declined to comment, speculation had already been brewing for some time that the unit would eventually have to own up to losses. The bank, known as one of the most sophisticated proprietary traders on the street, also lost $480 million on quantitative stock trades during the third quarter, according to the Wall Street Journal. Morgan Stanley formed Hubler's group as part of a move that split its structured-product trading desk into two. On one side is a "principal" unit tasked with boosting profits by betting Morgan Stanley's own cash - something the bank became interested in after seeing rival Goldman Sachs post big profits through proprietary trades. On the other side, a "client-facing" group deals with outside customers. Hubler, regarded as a star trader, was allowed to hand-pick the staffers for his diviSion, which fell within the principal unit They included a number of well-respected proprietary traders and dealmakers. One of them, Joseph Naggar, jumped to a buys ide position at hedge fund operator GoldenTree Asset Management about two weeks ago. Insiders at Morgan Stanley say Naggar wasn't necessarily headed for the chopping block at the time, but that his move may have been motivated by fears that Hubler's unit would be dissolved . Naggar was a right-hand man to Hubler, playing a key role in orchestrating many of the team's risky CDO trades. Word is that he started reaching out to GoldenTree months ago. 1 of 1 4112/20123 :33 PM EXHIBIT 10 SPG CDO Warehouse Committee Minutes February 17, 2006 The committee met to approve a new transaction: STACK 2006-1.

But it was Morgan Stanley traders who came across as the real hitters in the mortgage business. In his book "The Greatest Trade Ever: The Behind-The-Scenes Story of How John Paulson Defied Wall Street and Made Financial History," the WSJ's Greg Zuckerman described a visit between Morgan and Paulson traders in 2006 . At the time, Morgan traders were far ahead of Paulson in figuring how to make big so-called short bets against the mortgage market: Brad Rosenberg, Paulson's bond trader, invited two Morgan Stanley traders, John Pearce and Joseph Naggar, to visit the office, hoping to learn more about the market and include Morgan Stanley as one of its brokers on Paulson's big trade. Pearce and Naggar showed up in khaki pants and polo shirts, saying they didn't have much time to talk because they were late for a golf outing with other clients. "Let's try to make this as brief as we can," Naggar said. Pellegrini and Rosenberg, in suits and ties, handed the Morgan Stanley traders a list of subprime mortgage-backed bonds that the firm was hoping to bet against. "Here are the names we'd like to put more shorts on," Pellegrini said. Pearce and Naggar didn't seem to have much interest in trading with Paulson's team, though, or in spending time on their questions. http://blogs.wsj .comldealsl201 0105/ 13/morgan-stanley-not-goldman-traders-were-the-rea1-... 8/1512012 Morgan Stanley, Not Goldman, Was the Real CDO Hitter - Deal Joumal- WSJ Page 2 of2 "It sounds like a good trade; maybe we'll do it," Pearce said, with a laugh. Pearce wasjust humoring them, Rosenberg thought. As they ended the meeting, Pearce said, "Well, ifwe get more capacity, w e'll put it onfor you." Pearce and Naggar already had placed a few bearish subprime tradesfor their ownfirm, though they didn't want to let that on in the meeting. Contrast the swagger of the polo-shirt wearing Morgan traders with the profile that has emerged of Goldman COO trader Fabrice Tourre, who expressed personal misgivings to his girlfriends about selling mortgage securities, and his stoic appearance at that congressional hearing . (Still, Tourre does refer to himself as the "Fabulous" Fab in one oft-quoted email, so he doesn't lack at least ironic confidence) Of course, Morgan Stanley's overall mortgage bets resulted in multi-billion dollar mortgage-related losses in 2007 and 2008, which brought the firm to the brink of collapse. Goldman and Paulson profited handsomely from their mortgage bets. That in large part explains why Goldman, Tourre and Paulson are such targets of public and lawmaker anger, and why Morgan's traders will likely remain footnotes in the history of the mortgage collapse.

Andrews Kurth Creates Subprime and Distressed Practice HOUSTON - Corporate and litigation law firm Andrews Kurth LLP has formed a mixed disciplinary practice group, the Subprime and Distressed Assets Practice, to provide counsel on subprime-related issues such as assessment of potential claims and liabilities, responding to regulatory inquiries and creating strategic plans to respond to anticipated litigation. The main team will be made up of senior patiners and counsel, including partners Alihur Felsenfeld and Peter Goodman in New York. It also includes Robert Godlewski, patiner; Chris Allen, counsel; and Tom Perich, partner, in Houston; and partners Bill Compton, David Barbour and Pat Sargent in Dallas. The firm also has a team of former prosecutors to assist clients in the event of regulatory inquiry . This regulatory group is led by partner Spence Barasch, who is the former associate director in the Securities and Exchange Commission's Fort Worth, Texas, office. "Both the SEC and the [Federal Bureau ofInvestigation] are investigating numerous companies for accounting fraud, insider trading and other violations related to risky loans," said Mr. Barasch in a statement. "Dealing with regulatory agencies is always a delicate endeavor, and is even more so in an environment where government agencies are viewing the subprime loan industry as the latest Enron'-style headline-making corporate scandal.

March 14,2012 Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs By GREG SMITH TODAY is my last day at Goldman Sachs. After almost 12 years at the firm - first as a summer intern while at Stanford, then in New York for 10 years, and now in London - I believe I have worked here long enough to understand the trajectory of its culture, its people and its identity. And I can honestly say that the environment now is as toxic and destructive as I have ever seen it. To put the problem in the simplest terms, the interests of the client continue to be sidelined in the way the firm operates and thinks about making money. Goldman Sachs is one of the world's largest and most important investment banks and it is too integral to global finance to continue to act this way. The firm has veered so far from the place I joined right out of college that T can no longer in good conscience say that I identify with what it stands for. It might sound surprising to a skeptical public, but culture was always a vital p art of Goldman Sachs's success. It revolved around teamwork, integrity, a spirit of humility, and always doing right by our clients. The culture was the secret sauce that made this place great and allowed us to earn our clients' trust for 143 years. It wasn't just about making money; this alone will not sustain a firm for so long. It had something to do with pride and belief in the organization. I am sad to say that I look around today and see virtually no trace of the culture that made me love working for this firm for many years. I no longer have the pride, or the belief. But this was not always the case. For more than a decade I recruited and men to red candidates through our grueling intelview process. I was selected as one of 10 people (out of a firm of more than 3 0,000) to appear on our recruiting video, which is played on every college campus we visit around the world. In 2 006 I managed the summer intern program in sales and trading in New York for the 80 college students who made the cut, out of the thousands who applied. I knew it was time to leave when I realized I could no longer look students in the eye and tell them what a great place this was to work. http ://www. nytimes.com/20 12/03/ 14/0pin io n/why-i-am-Ieaving-goldm an-sachs.html?_ r= 1... 6/20/2012 Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs - NYTimes.com Page 2 of 4 When the history books are written about Goldman Sachs, they may reflect that the current chief executive officer, Lloyd C. Blankfein, and the president, Gary D. Cohn, lost hold ofthe firm's culture on their watch. I truly believe that this decline in the firm's moral fiber represents the single most serious threat to its long-run survival. Over the course of my career I have had the privilege of advising two of the largest hedge funds on the planet, five of the largest asset managers in the United States, and three ofthe most prominent sovereign wealth funds in the Middle East and Asia. My clients have a total asset base of more than a trillion dollars. I have always taken a lot of pride in advising my clients to do what I believe is right for them, even if it means less money for the firm. This view is becoming increasingly unpopular at Goldman Sachs. Another sign that it was time to leave. How did we get here? The firm changed the way it thought about leadership. Leadership used to be about ideas, setting an example and doing the right thing. Today, if you make enough money for the firm (and are not currently an ax murderer) you will be promoted into a position of influence. What are three quick ways to become a leader? a) Execute on the firm's "axes," which is Goldman-speak for persuading your clients to invest in the stocks or otherproducts that we are trying to get rid of because they are not seen as having a lot of potential profit. b) "Hunt Elephants." In English: get your clients - some of whom are sophisticated, and some of whom aren't - to trade whatever will bring the biggest profit to Goldman. Call me oldfashioned, but I don't like selling my clients a product that is wrong for them. c) Find yourself sitting in a seat where your job is to trade any illiquid, opaque product with a threeletter acronym. Today, many of these leaders display a Goldman Sachs culture quotient of exactly zero percent. I attend derivatives sales meetings where not one single minute is spent asking questions about how we can help clients. It's purely about how we can make the most possible money off of them. If you were an alien from Mars and sat in on one of these meetings, you would believe that a client's success or progress was not part of the thought process at all. It makes me ill how callously people talk about ripping their clients off. Over the last 12 months I have seen five different managing directors refer to their own clients as "muppets," sometimes over internal e-mail. Even after the S.E.C., Fabulous Fab, Abacus, God's work, Carl Levin, Vampire Squids? No humility? I mean, come on. Integrity? It is eroding. I don't know of any illegal behavior, but will people push the envelope and pitch lucrative and http://www.nytimes.com/20 12/03/ 14/opinion/why-i-am-Ieaving-goldman-sachs.html?J= 1... 6120/2012 Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs - NYTimes.com Page 3 of 4 complicated products to clients even if they are not the simplest investments or the ones most directly aligned with the client's goals? Absolutely. Every day, in fact. It astounds me how little senior management gets a basic truth: If clients don't trust you they will eventually stop doing business with you. It doesn't matter how smart you are. These days, the most common question I get from junior analysts about derivatives is, "How much money did we make off the client?" It bothers me every time I hear it, because it is a clear reflection of what they are observing from their leaders about the way they should behave. Now project 10 years into the future: You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out that the junior analyst sitting quietly in the corner of the room hearing about "muppets," "ripping eyeballs out" and "getting paid" doesn't exactly turn into a model citizen. When I was a first-year analyst I didn't know where the bathroom was, or how to tie my shoelaces. I was taught to be concerned with learning the ropes, finding out what a derivative was, understanding finance, getting to know our clients and what motivated them, learning how they defined success and what we could do to help them get there. My proudest moments in life - getting a full scholarship to go from South Mrica to Stanford University, being selected as a Rhodes Scholar national finalist, winning a bronze medal for table tennis at the Maccabiah Games in Israel, known as the Jewish Olympics - have all come through hard work, with no shortcuts. Goldman Sachs today has become too much about shortcuts and not enough about achievement. It just doesn't feel right to me anymore. I hope this can be a wake-up call to the board of directors. Make the client the focal point of your business again. Without clients you will not make money. In fact, you will not exist. Weed out the morally bankrupt people, no matter how much money they make for the firm. And get the culture right again, so people want to work here for the right reasons. People who care only about making money will not sustain this firm - or the trust of its clients for very much longer. Greg Smith is resigning today as a Goldman Sachs executive director and head ofthefirm's United States equity derivatives business in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. http://www.nytimes.com/20 12/03114/opinion/why-i-am-Ieaving-goldman-sachs.html?J= 1... 6/20/2012 EXHIBIT 20 http://www.sec.gov/ Archives/edgar/data/l 030442/00009051480300 1145.

Because distributions of principa l will be made t o the cl asses of offered certificates according to the priorities described in this prospe c tus supplement, th e yield to ma turity on those classes of offered certificates will be sensitive to the rates of prepayment un the mortgage lOdns experienced both bef ore dnd dfter the commencement of principal distributions on those classes. In particu l ar, the Class M a n d Class B certificates genera l ly are not entitled to rece i ve (unless the dggr e gate principal balance of th e Class A certificates has been reduced to zero) any portion of the amount of principa l payable to the offered certi f icates prior to the distribution date in [ l. Thereafter, subject to th e lOSS and delinquenc y performance of the mortgage loan pool, the Cl as s M and Class B certifica tes mdY continue (unless the d ggregate principal ba l ance of the Class A certificates has been reduced t o zero) to receive no portion of tne amount of principa l then payabl e to the offered certificates. After taking into account certain payments by the trust pu r su a nt t.o the interest rate!:lwap agreement, the weighted average lives of the Class M and Class B certificates will therefore be longer than would otherwise be the case. The effect on the market value of the Class M a nd Clas s B certificates of changes in market interest rates or market yields for slmilar sec urities may be gredter th dn for the Class A certificates. The value of your c ertificates may be reduced 1f the rate of default or the amount o f losses is h i gher tha n expected. o If the performance of the mortgage loans is substantially worse than assumed by the rating agencies, the ratings of any class of the c ertificates may be lowered or withdrawn in the future. This may reduce the value of those certificates. No one will be requi r ed to s uppleme n t a ny c r ed it e n han c e me nt or t o t a ke any other action to m a ~ nta i n an y rating o f the cert i ficates. Newly origirlated mortgage loans may be more likely to default, which may cau se l os ses on the o f f ered certi f icates . a Defdu l ts on mortgdge 1 0 a l1s tend to occur a t lligher r a tes during the edrly yeats of the ,ortgdge IOdns. All of the mortgage loans have b een originated within th e 12 mont h s prior to their sale to the trust. As a resu l t, th 2 tlust may e xperience higher rates of default than 1 f t h e mo rtgage loans had been outstan di ng for a l onger period o f time. The c redit enhancement fedtures may ue indclequate to provide protection for the o f fered certificates. o The credit enhancement features described i n this prospectus supplement Fire intended to enhdnce the likelihood that holders of the Class A certificates, and to a l imited extent, the holders of the Cldss M certificat es a nd, to d l ess e r deg re e , the holuers of the Class B 8-22 certific a tes, wLll receive teguld r p a yments of i nte r est ~ nd pri n c Lp a l. However, 'de cannot a ssure you that the applicable credit enhancement wil l adequately cover any shortfdlls in cash aVdilable to p a y your certif i cates as a res u lt of delinquenc ie s o r defaults on the mortgage loans. If de l inquencies or defaults occur on the mortgage l o a ns , none of the selvicers no r any other entity will advance scheduled monthly payments o f i n terest and principa l on del1nquent or de f aulted mortgage loa n s if the advdnces are not l i. kely to be r ~ covered. a If substan tial losses occ ur as d result of defaults and delinq uent payments o n the mortgage loans, you may suffer loss es. I nterest g e nerdted by the mortga ge loans ola y be insufficient to mainta i n t he required level o f overcollateralizati on. The \-Ieiqhted average of the net i nterest rates on the mo.rtgage loans i s expected to be higher than the weighted average of the pass througn r ates on the offe r ed certificates. InteLest on the mortgage loans, dfter taking into account certain payment s received or paid by the trust pursuant to the interest rate sw a p a gre ement, is expe c t e d t o g ene rate more inter e st than is needed to p ~ y in terest owed o n the o ffered certificates and to pay certain fees and expenses of the trust. An y remaill i ng interest generated b y the mortga g e lo a ns will th e n be u se d to a bsorb loss e s that u c cur on the mortg a ge loans.

Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, NE Washington, DC 20549-1090 Attn: Elizabeth M. Murphy, Secretary Re: General Comments on ABS-Related Provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 Ladies and Gentlemen: We greatly appreciate the receptiveness of the staff (the "Staff') of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") to comments on upcoming rulemaking required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of201 0 (the "Dodd-Frank Act"). In particular, we appreciate the time the Staff spent with us both during our meeting on October 14,2010, and in our subsequent conversations. At our meeting, the Staff invited us to submit written comments articulating our views. This letter is the first of several that we anticipate SUbmitting on the topics we discussed. Securitization has been a vital component of consumer and commercial lending in the United States and around the world. However, the recent financial crisis has severely impaired the ability oflenders to obtain funding from the capital markets. Excluding governmentsponsored and government-guaranteed (or agency) residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS"), the issuance of asset-backed securities ("ABS") has decreased by over 90% since its peak in 2005. I While we do not necessarily advocate for securitization to again become as ubiquitous as it was in 2005, a recovery in the securitization markets is crucial to restoring lending activity and reviving the overall U.S. economy. We recognize that some aspects of securitization can be improved upon, based on lessons learned during the financial crisis. But we have studied this issue carefully, and we are convinced that a key factor in the performance of securitizations - of whatever asset type - has been the quality of assets being securitized, not flaws in any typical ABS transaction structure or any inherent defect in the concept of securitization itself. Investment grade ABS of most types have perfonned well, considering the adverse economic environment. See ChaIt I below. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission November 16,2010 Page 5 Morgan Stanley where necessary and appropriate, and not applied in a blanket, fonnLllaic way to transactions in which the pool assets are of relatively high credit quality. The Sigll(jicOIzct: u/Poo/ !lsset Quality Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Act attempts to address the role of ABS in the fi nancial crisis, in part, by mandating that within 270 days after enactment the Commission, together with the federal banking agencies l2 and other specified federal agencies,13 issue regulations requiring securitizers or originators to retain an economic interest in a pOltion of the credit risk of any securitized asset. These regulations "shall establish asset classes with separate rules for securitizers of different classes of assets" which "shall include underwriting standards ... that specify the tenns, conditions, and characteristics of a loan within the asset class that indicate a low credit risk with respect to the loan." Specifically, the Dodd-Frank Act mandates risk retention lower than the five percent baseline for ABS backed by assets that meet the prescribed underwriting criteria. We believe that this fOCllS on the quality of credit llllderwritll1g for specific asset classes is th e key to resolving the problems with securiti/.ation that have heen cited a~ cOlltriblltin~ mo c;t trongly to the tinancial cri sis. Attached to this letter as Exhibit B is a chart entitled "Perfonnance of Broad Categories of Securitized Products," which illustrates estimated losses to investment grade tranches of various categories of securitized products, using estimates of pool losses and applying a generic capital structure for each category of secUlitized products. 14 (We believe that investors who purchased non-investment grade tranches should reasonably have expected to sustain losses in an adverse economic environment.) Excluding collateralized debt obligallons - which present special issues because they were essell(i;llly res \~c llritizatiol1s of a pool of suhordinated non-prime ll1ortgagt' bonds - the only categories of securitized products that show extraordinary estimated losses are two types of non-agency RMBS: those backed by subprime mortgage loans and socalled "alt-A" mortgage loans. 15 RMBS backed by jumbo prime mortgage loans are not anticipated to perform nearly as poorly. nor are commercial mortgage-backed securities. Collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), credit card ABS 16 and auto loan ABS are expected to perfonn even better. In sum, during the longest recession since World War II and during a I } The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insura nce Corporation and the Federal Reserve.

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission November 16,2010 Page 9 'Morgan Stanley In a subsequent comment letter, we expect to address the form of risk retention that should be required under Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Act in cases where risk retention is applicable. In general, we support the Federal Reserve Report's recommendation that "ru\emakers consider crafting credit risk retention requirements that are tailored to each major class of securitized assets," especially in light of the fact that most asset classes performed well in an adverse economic envirorunent. Credit risk retention should be permitted in many forms and formats, depending upon the asset class of ABS in question. Also in a subsequent comment letter, we hope to address the rules required by Section 621 of the Dodd-Frank Act regarding conflicts of interest in securitizations. In general, we support the views expressed by the American Securitization Forum in its letter dated October 21, 2010 regarding the implementation of Section 621. We agree that it was Congress' s intent to eliminate the obvious conflicts of interest that may arise in the context of a securitization, a result which we believe can be more precisely achieved by specifically banning the objectionable ac tivity. In our view, a broad or ambiguous definition of a prohibited "material conflict of interest" would have serious unintended consequences, reducing the number of underwriters or securitizers from whom investors can purchase securities and therefore limiting access to credit by many American consumers and businesses. * * * * * We greatly appreciate your consideration of the views set forth in this letter, and we would be pleased to have the opportunity to discuss these matters further with you or with any member of the Commission staff.

At the last 18 day of a 19 would be generated that would list all 20 the 21 exceptions associated with them. 22 diligence manager would show that report 23 with their counterpart at the seller. 24 And both sides would confirm that, 25 this loans and they had an opportunity to the diligence process, loans that still had level report 3 is the population of loans Our yes, that Page 34 Veritext National Deposition & Litigation Services 866299-5127 1 still has level 3 exceptions. 2 minute responses that the seller wanted 3 to give would be looked at at that 4 meeting if 5 aggregate report with all of the results 6 for all of 7 sent back to our team in New York. 8 then once that tie-out was done, 9 a day or two later, there were any. Any last And then an the loans would be created and And usually Clayton would provide 10 a package of 11 be sent to various people within our 12 business unit. 13 typically me and the diligence manager 14 and also to contract 15 collateral analysis. 18 It would come to MR. CUNICELLI: MR. 16 17 reports bye-mail that would PETERSON: finance and And what happened then? That information 19 would be aggregated along with other 20 sources of 21 trade. 22 understanding, 23 value team regarding their process. 24 would be coming from the seller regarding 25 loan data that's information regarding that Results would be, to my also coming in from the Data required to be provided Page 35 Veritext National Deposition & Litigation Services 866299-5127 1 by them. And I also bel ieve that 2 report would come from our custodian who 3 would be checking in the collateral 4 files . And to my understanding, 5 collateral 6 would aggregate all of 7 and provide i t back to the trade desk so 8 they could then tie out the trade and 9 make 10 final this a information determinations on which loans they were going to purchase. MR . 11 CUNICELLI: But you don't 12 understand how that process 13 understand it genera l ly but you d i dn't 14 you weren ' t 15 dec isions at 16 were purchased and which ones weren ' t .

Thank you. 8 CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: 9 Ms. Seal. 10 MS. SEAL: 11 members of the Commission. Thank you very much. Thank you, Chairman Angelides and 12 I am Vicki Seal, senior vice president of 13 Clayton Holdings, the nation's largest provider of 14 mortgage due diligence services. 15 the commission to describe the due diligence process, 16 its benefits and its limitations. 17 We have been asked by Clayton's principle due diligence clients are 18 financ i al institutions, and more recently government 19 agencies, private equity firms, and hedge funds . 20 retained by our clients to review samples of closed loan 21 pools that they are considering for purchase. 22 We are Clayton is not retained by i ts clients to 23 provide an opinion as to whether a loan is a good loan 24 or a bad l oan. 25 diligence to identify issues with loans, negotiate Rather, our clients use Clayton's due 156 1 better prices on pools of loans they are considering for 2 purchase, and negotiate expanded representations and 3 warranties in purchase and sale agreements from 4 sellers. 5 The type and scope of our due diligence work is 6 dictated by our clients based on their individual 7 objectives . 8 20 percent of the pool, and decide if the sample is to 9 be random or adverse. 10 Clients select the sample, generally 10 to Clayton typically reviews a sample of loans 11 against the seller or originat i ng institution's 12 guidelines and the client's tolerance. 13 for: 14 guidelines and c l ient risk tolerances; 15 wi th federal state and l ocal regulatory laws, and; 16 the integrity of the electronic loan data provided by 17 the sel l er to the prospective buyer. 18 commonly referred to as a "credit and compliance 19 review." 20 Clayton reviews (1) Adherence to seller credit underwriting (2) compliance (3) Th i s review is As part of this review, we grade each loan for 21 credit and compliance using grades of: 22 that meet guidelines; Event 2, loans that do not meet 23 guidelines but have sufficient compensating factors; and 24 Event 3, l oans that do not meet guidelines and have 25 insufficient compensating factors. Event 1, loans Clayton's fees are 157 1 2 not contingent on our findings or our grades . The work product produced by Clayton is 3 comprised of loan level data reports and loan exception 4 reports and is the property of our clients . 5 important part of our due diligence services is 6 providing exception reports; that is, reports of loans 7 with deviation from seller underwriting guidelines and 8 client tolerances. 9 An However, the number of reported exceptions 10 should not be viewed in isolation. 11 reviewed in conjunction with the corresponding 12 underwriting guidelines and client tolerances . 13 Exceptions must be Simply stating a Clayton grade of Event 1 does 14 not mean a loan is good or is l i kely to perform, nor 15 does a Clayton grade of Event 3 mean that a loan is bad 16 and is not l ikely to perform. 17 possible to draw an apples-to-apples comparison of deals 18 from different clients or different sellers. 19 Moreover, it may not be Exceptions to underwriting guidelines can vary 20 from being severe -- such as the valuation of a property 21 not being supported by an appraisal, stated income not 22 being reasonable for the job, or missing critical 23 documents in a file such as HUD-1, loan application, or 24 an appraisal -- to benign, such as a debt-to-income 25 ratio of less than 5 percent or loan-to-value exception 17 6 1 weren't quite as robust in their credit overlays. 2 could also be a mix of the sellers that the y were buying 3 loans from. 4 So you know, It there a re many th er e . And then also one other point I would like to 5 make in this is that this was a beta ve Lsion o f the 6 trending reports . 7 it hadn't been scrubbed. 8 comparison just as we're saying -- thi s s ummary report, It wasn't an apples-to-apples CHAIRMAN ANGEL I DES: 9 10 It was raw data, You didn't st and ardi ze it, so it was reflective of each institution, 11 MS. BEAL: Yes, 12 CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: right? that's corr ect . All right. So I am going 13 to just pose something then I want to turn to ot her 14 commi ss i oners and then I want to come ba c k at the end 15 because this is an area I would l ike to hear my 16 col l eag ue 's questions around these issues . 17 But there seems to be kind of three p o ints h ere 18 as I lo oke d at this . 19 doesn't look like your information e v er migrated to 20 disclosure. 21 purpose, but this wasn't disclosed. 22 the di sc losure is some of these loans, 23 amount, may be exceptions but there is compens at ing 24 fa c tors . 25 appears not to have been ava ilable to investors . I One is, from what I can tell, it know you didn't prepare it for tha t What yo u read in a si gnifi ca nt What's n ot revealed is the actual data, so it Is 177 1 that - - would that be your - - 2 MR. JOHNSON: We are not aware of -- and we 3 looked at a loft prospectuses -- of any of our 4 information 5 CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: 6 MR. JOHNSON: -- ever popping through. -- going through the prospec tus . 7 And one of our recommendations was that a table should 8 be included in the future that simply said, you know, 9 due diligence -- independent chosen due diligence 10 ach i eved a 95 percent confidence level in certain 11 attributes with an error of, you know, 12 was performed. 13 it and investors could acknowledg e and then you c ould 14 grade good, bad, and ugly issuers . 15 2 or 3 percent And that way rating agencies would have CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: Secondly, it appears as 16 though you did a sample of 5 to 10 percent, but i t looks 17 like the other 90 percent were never faxed. 18 thinking if I am a securitizer, even forgetting whether 19 it's 28 percent failed or 11 percent failed, what is 20 happening here, they got a sample of 10 percent. 21 11 percent of those fail. 22 the other 90 percent, I kick those out. MS. BEAL: 24 CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: got it right? I know But as to I don't do nothing? 23 25 So I am Right. Does the silence mean I 178 MR. JOHNSON: 1 2 a statement? CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: 3 4 Did you ask a question or i s this Is that an accurate statement? 5 MR. JOHNSON: That's an accurate statement . 6 CHA IRMAN ANGELIDES: All right. And the final 7 thing is I just want to note that I looked, I guess the 8 examiner for the New Century bankruptcy and a f o rmer 9 regulatory compliance person in Fremont said there was 10 also practice of even if loans were kicked out they were 11 put back in another securitization. 12 Are you familiar with that or not? 13 MR. JOHNSON: 14 strikes, you' r e out" rule. CHAIRMAN ANGE LI DES: 15 16 I think it goes to "three So this was a case of -- okay, three strikes . MR. JOHNSON: 17 I've heard that even used. Tr y 18 it once, try it twice, try it three times, and if you 19 can't get it out, then put CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: 20 Well, the odds are pretty 21 good i f you are sampling 5 to 10 percent that you'll pop 22 through. 23 ugly will pop through. When you said the good, the bad, the ugly, 24 All right. Final question, and that is : 25 made a comment at one point, I think it was public the You 179 1 comment about you felt like a potted plant . 2 personally, but due diligence folks. 3 process yo u felt like you were producing information 4 and -MR. JOHNSON: 5 Right. And not you In this whole I think it was when we 6 looked at these reports here, we saw that -- 54 percent 7 was alarming to me personally, you know, I can say this . 8 And I didn't realize what -- 9 CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: 10 54 percent were making the initial grade? 11 MR. JOHNSON: Right. And so I don't know what 12 o ur role was . 13 diligence - - and I was a big buyer of lo an s -- is rea ll y 14 s imp le . 15 loan, I owned it, it went in my portfolio. 16 delinquent in fault, 17 answer to a guy name d Lou Rane ire. 18 Back in the old days, It' s good l oa n, bad loan. in the '80s, due When you bought the If it went I had to be personally lia b le and In this case here I think the liability got 19 pushed all the way out to the investor and we got away 20 from the practice of good loan, bad loan. 21 meet the guideline? 22 guideline? 23 24 25 Just "Does it Does it mean meet the ugly Oh, 54 percent do, okay." CHAIRMAN ANGELIDES: Again, I don't This wasn't the gold standard of underwriting guidelines, correct? MR.

Phil Angelides Chairman Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission 1717 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Suite 800 Washington, DC 20006-4614 RE: Septembe r 23, 2010 Sacramento Hearing Dear Chairman Angelides: I write to clarify and correct some of the testimony provided last Thursday during the Commission's hearing in Sacramento, California . As you recall, during a panel entitled "The Mortgage Securitization Chain: From Sacramento to Wa ll Street," you and your fellow Commissioners questioned Ms. Vicki Beal, a Senior Vice President in Transaction Management at Clayton, as well as Mr. Keith Johnson, the former President and Chief Executive Officer of Washington Mutual's Long Beach Mortgage and forme r President of Clayton from May 2006 through Decembe r 2008. Among the questions posed to Ms. Beal and Mr. Johnson were questions related to Clayton's meetings with various ratings agencies during 2006 and 2007, Clayton's Exception and Trending Reports, and the disclosure of Clayton's work to investors in prospectuses. Following the hearing, several media outlets have written about these topics and commented on some of the inaccurate testimony provided by Mr. Johnson. As the Commission is charged with accurately recording the causes of the current financial and economic crisis, an undertaking Clayton fully supports, it is imperative that the American people are not left with any misimpressions or erroneous conclusions. Accordingly, I will address each of these three topics and ask that you make this letter part ofthe Commission's permanent record. Rating Agency Meetings On several occasions, Mr. Johnson was asked about Clayton's meetings with Moody's, S&P and Fitch. In response to those questions, Mr. Johnson testified that in 2006 Clayton took its Exception Tracking reports to Fitch and S&P, and in 2007, Clayton did the same with Moody's along with the Trending Reports. These statements are inaccurate. First, at no time did Clayton share any client reports or data, much less the beta Trending Reports, with any rating agency. Let me be clear, Clayton never shared any client reports or data with the rating agencies during a period when the rating agenCies were reviewing securities for ratings issuance. Second, Clayton used these meetings solely to market its products. At no point did Clayton set up a meeting with a rating agency in an effort to discuss "concerns" Clayton had about the securitization process and the ratings being issued. Indeed, as detailed below, the only discussions Clayton had with the rating agencies regarding changes to the due diligence process occurred after the securitization market for new issues had collapsed in early 2007. Simply stated, there was nothing Clayton discussed with the various rating agencies prior to the collapse of the securitization market, that to Clayton's knowledge, would have lead the rating agencies to alter their approach . Hon. Phil Angelides September 30. 2010 Page 2 of 4 Pursuant to a request from your staff, Clayton provided a chronology of all of its meetings with the various rating agencies, including the topics discussed and the participants from each firm, along with supporting documents. In addition, Mr. Filipps, Ms. O'Neill and Ms. Beal were interviewed by your staff about these meetings. In order to have an unambiguous record of these meetings, I have set forth for your convenience a summary of those meetings taken from the documents provided and the interviews conducted . Clayton met with Fitch on two occasions in 2006. Mr. Johnson was present for neither meeting. Indeed, the first meeting occurred in January 2006, almost five months prior to Mr. Johnson's employment at Clayton. During that meeting, no client reports or data were shared with Fitch. The second occurred in late November 2006 in the United Kingdom and was not attended by Mr. Johnson. During that meeting, Clayton made a marketing presentation and discussed its products and exception tracking capabilities . At no time did Clayton share any client reports or data with Fitch. In 2007, Clayton met with Fitch on November 9, long after the securitization market had collapsed. During that meeting, which was attended by Mr. Johnson and other senior Clayton officers, the two firms discussed reforms being cons idered and proposed by all of the rating agencies, including standardization of due diligence and discl osure of due diligence results to investors. Clayton produced to your staff the presentation materials provided to Fitch, which describe Clayton's exception tracking and trending capabilities using sample data. No client reports or data were sha red. Clayton met with S&P on ly once in 2006, on April 26, the month prior to Mr. Johnson's arrival at Clayton. During that meeting, neither Exception Tracking nor trending was discussed nor were any client reports or data shared with S&P. In 2007, Clayton held two meetings with S&P. The first of which occurred on July 27, 2007, after the securitization market had collapsed. This was a meeting during which Clayton discussed its capabilities. On October 10, 2007, Clayton made a formal marketing presentation to S&P, a copy of which was provided to your staff. Mr. Johnson attended both meetings, along with other senior Clayton officers. Once again, Clayton discussed its capabilities and how Clayton could be part of the reform process being considered by the rating agencies. At neither meeting were any client reports or data shared, and Clayton produced to your staff its materials from the October 10 presentation. Moody's Clayton held one meeting with Moody's in April 2006, prior to Mr. Johnson's arrival. No client reports or data were disclosed. Throughout 2007, Clayton met several times with Moody's. During the first half of 2007, Moody's held several meetings with Clayton as part of Moody's research for a White Paper they were preparing on due diligence. During these meetings w ith Clayton staff, which did not include Mr. Johnson, Clayton explained its operations and how it conducts a due diligence review, including the use of Exception Tracking. No client reports or data were shared with Moody's during any of these meetings. Hon. Phil Angelides September 30, 2010 Page 3 of4 In July 2007, once again after the securitization market had collapsed, Moody's held a meeting with Clayton at Moody's offices. Mr. Johnson, along with another Clayton senior officer, attended the meeting. The two firms discussed Clayton's Exception Tracking capabilities, but no client reports or data were shared. On September 5, 2007, and later on October 17, 2007, the two companies discussed how Clayton's capabilities could be included in reforms being considered. Mr. Johnson and other senior Clayton officers attended both meetings. Once again, no client reports or data were shared. Clayton produced to your staff all of the presentation materials from each of these meetings. Those materials contain example reports and sample data, and do not contain any actual client data or reports. Trending Reports During your questioning of Ms. Beal, you entered into the record and asked Ms. Beal about the "All Clayton Trending Reports," reports specifically requested from Clayton by your staff. Prior to the September 23 hearing, your staff interviewed several senior Clayton officers who were directly responsible for the development of these reports. Specifically, your staff interviewed Frank Filipps, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer from April 2005 through July 2008, Kerry O'Neill, Executive Vice President Due Diligence and Platform Services from May 2004 through December 2007, and Ms. Beal. As detailed below, each of them advised against the Commission's reliance on the Trending Reports. As Ms. Beal stated in her written testimony, "[b]eginning in 2003, Clayton worl.: ~nC.Davis JCD:adc 641941_1 One l\.4ontgmrrE To: Wong, Elwyn Sent: Ttle Jan 03 21 :15:43 2006 Subject: RE: Real fast: Need rough cost ora rating on a $37511unswap (tUIfiuxied)?

Process 1. Currently we are running 2.4 .3 and compare to our worst case runs but should also run the 3.0 methodology where we compare to the n% worst case depending upon the liability so we know where things are going . Is this right? 2. How will the COO monitor be linked into these different versions of the evaluator? Will old deals have to move to a new E3.0 for the purposes of the COO monitor? AFC Stress 1. When running the new methodology can you explain the nature of the stress? 2. The stress looks particularly punitive for unhedged hybrids. I assume you mean hybrid bonds (not bonds with hybrid mortgages) which are fixed and then floating . What is the sort of hedge that removes the risk? Other 1. We do forward starts on many synthetics but they start on the closing date; I assume that these are not what is covered by the forward start applications with in E3.0. 2. What are the new CMBS recovery rat es that you mentioned earlier in the meeting 3. Looks like counterparty risk is only a factor if the deal is going short. Is this correct? 4. What are the main modeling issues for long-short trades? Are there any additiona l modeling requirements beyond using E3,0? I was told that there was language that we need to include regarding terminations in the confirm. S. . Regarding the grandfathering question, it sounded like a deal would have to have deteriorated before a downgrade is likely.

Confidential MS CDIB 000064552 EXHIBIT 32.3 From: Wong, Elwyn [Elwyn_Wong@standardandpoors.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 20063:48 PM To: Neer, Brian (FID) Subject: RE: Hi Brian Your point well taken .... unfortunately you are stuck in a very granular part of the subordination vector in a fairly leveraged structure (viz COOA2s with high grade ABS as "fillers" back in 2004 or FTO of a bunch of AAA names would have the same problem). Another case in point.. .. you see Europeans doing synthetic COOs using all AAA ABS reference obligors. While AM ABS has been more resisitant to credit migration and they don't have a problem like the one you are facing , a slight change in our ABS POs -- which will be in E3.2 -- is going to lead to upgrades/downgrades of these COOs as well. What is haunting you is of course our fairly flat default curve for the highly rated part of the curve. (E2.4.3 uses the same corp POs to simulate default as well as counts the area under the loss curve to arrive at required subordination. E3.1 uses revised corp POs to simulate default BUT uses revised and HIGHER "COO liability POs" to count the area under the loss curve to arrive at required subordination .... I am not sure I can quantify if this alone causes a problem for you ... the lack of gradation in the front end of the PO curves has always been there, E2.4.3 or E3.1 ... or does the introduction of a rather controversial COO liability PO curve compound it?) THE BIGGEST IMPACT, I think, came from the fact that we removed stress factors in E3.1 . That has a lot to do with producing a subordination vector like this. But the market introduced shorts and forward starts ..... we have no choice. Let me round-up a couple of quants and surveillance guys to talk about this first before I revert. You are back in NY?

Your comment below is pretty upsetting ("very, very, tight"). On a recent deal these were the tranche breakdowns from your model: AAA 4.47% AA+ 4.24% AA 3.96% AA3.81% A+ 3.66% A 3.55% A3.35% If we are issuing AA- Notes, the most subordination we can build in without being a AA is .15% . Are you saying we should just "make up" our ratings (Le. set ollr own subordination levels and tell YOll what the rating is .... .)? I'm very concerned about a world where dealers decide what ratings their products are going to have. Your "rating" takes on many different meanings and loses it's integrity ... doesn't it? The cushions between rating categories Confidential MS COIB 0000640 1 2 above are barely enough to survive 2 downgrades to below IG ..... so we have some concerns I'd really like to speak with you about this.

You guys tranche new deals very, very tight. So downgrades almost entirely because of portfolio credit migration. Now we too keep a Chinese wall between corp orates and SF. Those guys only let us know about downgrades ( and only big ones like GM and Ford) minutes before they go out. I know all structurers do rating arbitrage but maybe you should get some guy to be a little more tapped in wrt corporate rating changes if you are going to tranche them tight.

Accordingly, the peculiar knowledge doctrine cannot support the lower court's decision to impose a disclosure obligation on Morgan Stanley. POINT III CDIB FAILED TO PLEAD SCIENTER SUFFICIENTLY The complaint should also be dismissed for the independent reason that CDIB has failed to allege scienter with the specificity required by CPLR 30 16(b). "A fraud claim is not actionable without evidence that the misrepresentations were made with the intent to deceive." Friedman v. Anderson, 23 A.D.3d 163, 167 (1st Dep't 2005); accord Handel v. Bruder, 209 A.D.2d 282,282-83 (1st Dep't 1994). To allege scienter adequately, a complaint must "set forth specific and detailed factual allegations that the defendant personally participated in, or had knowledge of any alleged fraud." Handel, 209 A.D.2d at 282-83. CDIB presents two contradictory theories of scienter, which--either together or standing alone-fail to satisfy CPLR 3016(b).15 15 The complaint presented a third theory in conclusory fashion-that Morgan Stanley might have been "betting" against lower tranches of certain CDOs other than STACK 2006-1 while "betting" on supersenior positions similar to the COIB Swap. (R. 52-53 ~~ 72-76.) This theory, however, affirmatively undermines COIB's allegations of scienter because it suggests that Morgan Stanley believed that investments like the COIB Swap were safe, which is why Morgan Stanley was increasing its exposure to such investments. The lower . court rightly disregarded this theory. 53 CDIB 's first theory of scienter is that Morgan Stanley had the motive arid opportunity to transfer the risk of anticipated losses from the Supersenior Swap to CDIB in April 2007 when Morgan Stanley allegedly "recognized that the wheels were coming off U.S. residential real estate mortgage bonds .... " (R. 31 ,-r 10.) This theory, however, is entirely conclusory and unsupported: CDIB does not identify a single fact that Morgan Stanley allegedly learned in early 2007 that would cause Morgan Stanley to transfer the risk of holding the Supersenior Swap from its books. Instead, CDIB supports this theory only by asserting that CDIB ultimately lost money on the CDIB Swap. Such fraud-byhindsight allegations are insufficient as a matter of law. Sears v. First Pioneer Farm Credit, ACA, 46 A.D.3d 1282, 1285 (3d Dep't 2007). In the absence of specific facts about Morgan Stanley's knowledge, CDIB's complaint focuses mainly upon other transactions, including a complaint filed against Goldman Sachs that has literally nothing to do with Morgan Stanley or STACK 2006-1. Likewise, CDm relies heavily upon newspaper articles that do not concern STACK 2006-1 or the CDIB Swap, and instead concern only alleged investigations of "Wall Street" that have reached no conclusions. These allegations are of course insufficient as a matter of law to establish scienter. See, e.g., Freidus v. ING Groep N.V., 736 F. Supp. 2d 54 516, 832 (S.D.N. Y. 2010) (holding that allegations "concem[ing] the market generally, other securities, or the actions of other institutions" are insufficient to state a claim); accord Eurycleia Partners, 12 N.Y.3d at 560. CDIB's second theory of scienter is equally meritless: that Morgan Stanley structured STACK 2006-1 in July 2006 using faulty models because it knew the CDO's collateral portfolio contained assets that were riskier than represented. (See R. 22.) This theory presupposes that Morgan Stanley acted against its own economic self-interest in structuring the STACK 2006-1 CDO. If it were true that Morgan Stanley knew the credit ratings were flawed and the collateral was degraded, then Morgan Stanley knew that the CDO's collateral assets were excessively risky when Morgan Stanley itself first entered into the Supersenior Swap in July 2006, exposing itself to up to $325 million in potential loss payments on those very same assets. The CDIB Swap did not occur until April 2007; Morgan Stanley itself bore that risk for approximately nine months. CDIB's second theory of scienter thus presumes that Morgan Stanley acted in an economically irrational way. Far from giving rise to a reasonable inference of scienter, see Eurycleia Partners, 12 N.Y.3d at 559, CDIB's irrational allegations refute any such inference. See, e.g., Ashland Inc. v. 55 Morgan Stanley & Co., 700 F. Supp. 2d 453, 469 (S.D.N.Y. 2010) (holding that no "inference, let alone a strong inference, of scienter" exists where defendant allegedly "purchas[ ed] billions of dollars ... of [auction rate securities] in order to induce [plaintiff] into an already illiquid auction market [which] would leave [defendant] in an illiquid position"). POINT IV CDIB CANNOT SEEK RESCISSION BECAUSE CDIB RATIFIED THE CONTRACT One of the remedies CDIB seeks-rescission of the CDIB Swap (see R . . 75 ~ E)-is unavailable as a matter of law. In May 2009, CDIB and Morgan Stanley agreed to amend the CDIB Swap to afford CDIB certain additional rights. (See R. 566-71.) Each party also "agree[d] that, except as specifically amended herein, the [CDIB] Swap Agreement is and shall be in full force and effect." (Id. ? 3(a).) This express ratification bars CDIB from now seeking rescission. It is well established that "an action for rescission is barred by [a party's] ratification of the agreement." Colyer v. Colyer, 26 A.D.3d 303,304 (Ist Dep't 2006). The court below failed to follow this well-established law, "disagree[ing]" that plaintiff had waived its right to seek rescission for two 56 EXHIBIT 33 Atlanta Boca Raton Chicago Melville New York Philadelphia San Diego San Francisco Washington, DC Jason C.

Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP 450 Lexington Avenue New York, NY 10017 Re: China Development Industrial Bank v. Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc., et al. Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Index No.: 650957/2010 Dear Counsel: I write to confirm that during the July 30, 2012 discovery conference the Court's law clerk, Mr. Jay Wilker, gave CDIB permission to file a motion to compel Morgan Stanley's compliance with the Court's February 27, 2007, discovery order and to compel Morgan Stanley to produce documents in response to CDIB's second document requests. We appreciate your acknowledgment during the conference that two more of Morgan Stanley's custodians in this case, Messrs. Shapiro and Telesca, did, in fact, work in Mr. Hubler's group. You have previously confirmed that Mr. Naggar worked in Mr. Hubler's group and reported to Mr. Hubler. Separately, at about midnight on the day of the conference, Morgan Stanley requested permission to file a motion to compel the production of documents from CDIB, but we have not completed the meet and confer process on Morgan Stanley's issues; CDIB is, in fact, willing to provide Morgan Stanley many (perhaps most) of the items it wants. We are hoping to have another production to you next week and are working hard to get more documents to you in response to the issues you have raised. CDIB has expended substantial time and money to satisfy many of Morgan Stanley's additional demands. We would like avoid burdening the Court with issues about which there is little or no dispute. Also, please let us know when Morgan Stanley can make an attorney available to attend non-party depositions this month. Based on Jim's strong reaction to one non-party deposition at the conference, we assume that such depositions will require his attendance. Accordingly, please provide dates when it will be convenient for Jim to attend Mr. Kaplan's deposition. 743955_1 O ne Montg omery Street Suite 1800 San Francisc o, CA 94104 T el 415 288 4545 Fax 415 288 4534 www.rgrdlaw.com James P.
