As Representative of the

c/o J.P. Morgan Securities Inc.

270 Park Avenue, 10th Floor

New York, New York 10017

Ladies and Gentlemen:

J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., a Delaware

corporation (the "Depositor"), proposes to sell to the several Underwriters

listed in Schedule I (the "Underwriters"), for whom J.P. Morgan Securities Inc.

is acting as representative (the "Representative"), $5,001,325,000 principal

amount of Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2007-LDP11,

Classes A-1, A-2, A-2FL, A-3, A-4, A-SB, A-1A, A-M, A-J, B, C, D, E, F and X

(the "Offered Certificates") as set forth in Schedule I. The Offered

Certificates, together with the Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates,

Series 2007-LDP11, Classes G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, NR, Q, T, R and LR (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 mortgage loans secured by

commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties, as

described in the Prospectus referred to below (the "Mortgage Loans"), and

certain moneys received under each Mortgage Loan after the related due date for

such Mortgage Loan, which shall be: (i) in July 2007 or (ii) with respect to

those mortgage loans that have their first due date after July 2007, the

origination date of the Mortgage Loan. The Certificates will be issued pursuant

to the provisions of a pooling and servicing agreement to be dated as of July 1,

2007 (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement"), among the Depositor, Wachovia

Bank, National Association as Master Servicer (the "Master Servicer"), CWCapital

Asset Management LLC as Special Servicer (the "Special Servicer") and LaSalle

Bank National Association as Trustee (the "Trustee").

The Depositor hereby confirms its agreement with the several Underwriters

concerning the purchase and sale of the Offered Certificates, as follows:

1. Registration Statement. The Depositor has prepared and filed with the

Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") in accordance with the

provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and

regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the "Securities Act"), a

registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-140804), as amended, including a

prospectus, relating to the Offered Certificates. The registration statement as

amended at the time when it became effective, or, if a post-effective amendment

is filed with respect thereto, as amended by such post-effective amendment at

the time of its effectiveness, is referred to in this Agreement as the

"Registration Statement". The Depositor also has filed with, or proposes to file

with, the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act a prospectus

supplement specifically relating to the Offered Certificates (the "Prospectus

Supplement"). The related prospectus covering the Offered Certificates in the

form first required to be filed to satisfy the condition set forth in Rule

172(c) under the Securities Act is hereinafter referred to as the "Basic

Prospectus", and the Basic Prospectus as supplemented by the Prospectus

Supplement in the form first required to be filed to satisfy the condition set

forth in Rule 172(c) under the Securities Act is hereinafter referred to as the

"Prospectus". Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, any

preliminary prospectus (a "Preliminary Prospectus") used in connection with the

offering of the Offered Certificates or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer

to and include any exhibits thereto and the documents incorporated by reference

therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, as of the

effective date of the Registration Statement or the date of such Preliminary

Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, and any reference to "amend,"

"amendment" or "supplement" with respect to the Registration Statement, any

Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include

any documents filed as of the Closing Date (as defined below) under the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of

the Commission thereunder (collectively, the "Exchange Act") that are deemed to

be incorporated by reference therein.

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 June 8, 2007 (the "Preliminary Free Writing

Prospectus") and a free writing prospectus supplement dated June 25, 2007 (the

"Free Writing Prospectus Supplement"), (ii) a supplemental structural and

collateral information free writing prospectus dated as of June 8, 2007 (the

"Term Sheet"), and (iii) each "free-writing prospectus" (as defined pursuant to

Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (a "Free Writing Prospectus") listed on

Exhibit 1 hereto. 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 have terminated their old purchase

contracts and entered into new purchase contracts with purchasers of the Offered

Certificates, then "Time of Sale" will refer to the time when such new purchase

contracts are entered into and "Time of Sale Information" will refer to the

information available to purchasers at the time of entry into 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, dated as of July 1, 2007, between JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPMCB")

and the Depositor (the "JPMCB Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement"), (iv) the

mortgage loan purchase agreement, dated as of July 1, 2007, between UBS Real

Estate Securities Inc. ("UBS") and the Depositor (the "UBS Mortgage Loan

Purchase Agreement"), (v) the mortgage loan purchase agreement, dated as of July

1, 2007, between Natixis Real Estate Capital Inc. ("Natixis") and the Depositor

(the "Natixis Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement"), (vi) the mortgage loan

purchase agreement, dated as of July 1, 2007, between Eurohypo AG, New York

Branch ("Eurohypo") and the Depositor (the "Eurohypo Mortgage Loan Purchase

Agreement"), (vii) the mortgage loan purchase agreement, dated as of July 1,

2007, between Nomura Credit & Capital, Inc. ("Nomura") and the Depositor (the

"Nomura Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement") and (viii) the mortgage loan purchase

agreement, dated as of July 1, 2007, between AIG Mortgage Capital, LLC ("AIG"),

SOME II, LLC and the Depositor (the "AIG Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement" and,

collectively with the JPMCB Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the UBS Mortgage

Loan Purchase Agreement, the Natixis Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the

Eurohypo Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Nomura Mortgage Loan Purchase

Agreement, the "Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements") and (ix) 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. JPMCB, UBS, Natixis, Eurohypo, Nomura and AIG are collectively

referred to herein as the "Sellers". To the extent not defined herein,

Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(o) Legal Proceedings. Except as described in the Prospectus and the

Time of Sale Information, there are no legal, governmental or regulatory

investigations, actions, suits or proceedings pending to which the Depositor is

or may be a party or to which any property of the Depositor is or may be the

created under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the "Trust Fund") is, and,

after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Certificates and the

application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Prospectus, neither the

Depositor nor the Trust Fund will be an "investment company" or an entity

"controlled" by an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment

Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission

thereunder (collectively, "Investment Company Act").

(s) Representations in Basic Documents. The representations and

warranties of the Depositor contained in the Basic Documents are true and

correct in all material respects.

(t) Taxes. Any taxes, fees and other governmental charges in

such federal, state and local taxes as may be payable on the income or gain

recognized therefrom) have been or will be paid at or prior to the Closing Date.

(u) Business Relationship with the Underwriters. The Depositor

acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity

of an arm's length contractual counterparty to the Depositor with respect to the

offering of Certificates contemplated hereby (including in connection with

determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a

fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Depositor or any other person. Additionally,

neither the Representative nor any other Underwriter is advising the Depositor

or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory

matters in any jurisdiction. The Depositor shall consult with its own advisors

concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own

independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby,

and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Depositor

with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of the Depositor, the

transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions

will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on

behalf of the Depositor.

(v) Ineligible Issuer. The Depositor is not, and on the date on

which the first bona fide offer of the Certificates is made will not be, an

"ineligible issuer", as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

(w) Regulation AB Compliance. The Depositor will comply with the

applicable provisions of Regulation AB, as promulgated by the Commission under

the Exchange Act (17 C.F.R. ss.ss.229.1100 - 229.1123), in all respects.

4. Further Agreements of the Depositor. The Depositor covenants and agrees

with each Underwriter that:

(a) Filing of Prospectus and Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. The

Depositor will file the final Prospectus with the Commission within the time

periods specified by Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act; subject to Section 8,

will file any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to the extent required by Rule 433

under the Securities Act; and the Depositor will furnish copies of the

Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to the Underwriters in New

York City prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the business day next

succeeding the date of this Agreement, or at such other time and date as may be

acceptable to the Representative, in such quantities as the Representative may

reasonably request.

(b) Delivery of Copies. The Depositor will deliver, without charge,

(i) to the Representative, one signed copy of the Registration Statement as

originally filed and each amendment thereto, in each case including all exhibits

and consents filed therewith; and (ii) to each Underwriter (A) a conformed copy

of the Registration Statement as originally filed and each amendment thereto, in

each case including all exhibits and consents filed therewith and (B) during the

Prospectus Delivery Period, as many copies of the Prospectus (including all

amendments and supplements thereto) and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as

the Representative may reasonably request. As used herein, the term "Prospectus

Delivery Period" means such period of time after the first date of the public

offering of the Offered Certificates as in the opinion of counsel for the

Underwriters a prospectus relating to the Offered Certificates is required by

law to be delivered (or required to be delivered but for Rule 172 under the

Securities Act) in connection with sales of the Offered Certificates by any

Underwriter or dealer.

(c) Amendments or Supplements. Before preparing, using, authorizing,

approving, referring to or filing any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and before

filing any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the

Prospectus, the Depositor will furnish to the Representative and counsel for the

Underwriters a copy of the proposed Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, amendment or

supplement for review and will not prepare, use, authorize, approve, refer to or

file any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or file any such proposed amendment

or supplement to which the Representative reasonably objects.

(d) Notice to the Representative. The Depositor will advise the

Representative promptly, and confirm such advice in writing, (i) when any

amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed or becomes effective;

(ii) when any supplement to the Prospectus or any amendment to the Prospectus

has been filed; (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the

Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the

receipt of any comments from the Commission relating to the Registration

Statement or any other request by the Commission for any additional information;

(iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any order suspending the effectiveness

of the Registration Statement or preventing or suspending the use of any

Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or the initiation or threatening of any

proceeding for that purpose; (v) of the occurrence of any event within the

Prospectus Delivery Period as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended

or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to

state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the

light of the circumstances existing when the Prospectus is delivered to a

purchaser, not misleading; and (vi) of the receipt by the Depositor of any

notice with respect to any suspension of the qualification of the Offered

Certificates for offer and sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or

threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and the Depositor will use its

reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order suspending the

effectiveness of the Registration Statement, preventing or suspending the use of

any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or suspending any such

qualification of the Offered Certificates and, if issued, will obtain as soon as

possible the withdrawal thereof.

(e) Ongoing Compliance of the Prospectus. If, during the Prospectus

Delivery Period: (i) any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result

of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue

statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be

stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the

light of the circumstances existing when the Prospectus is delivered to a

purchaser, not misleading; or (ii) it is necessary to amend or supplement the

Prospectus to comply with law, the Depositor will immediately notify the

Underwriters thereof and forthwith prepare and, subject to paragraph (c) above,

file with the Commission and furnish to the Underwriters and to such dealers as

the Representative may designate, such amendments or supplements to the

Prospectus as may be necessary so that the statements in the Prospectus as so

amended or supplemented will not, in light of the circumstances existing when

the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the

Prospectus will comply with law.

(f) Blue Sky Compliance. The Depositor will qualify the Offered

Certificates for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such

jurisdictions as the Representative shall reasonably request and will continue

such qualifications in effect so long as may be required for distribution of the

Offered Certificates; provided that the Depositor shall not be required to (i)

qualify as a foreign corporation or other entity or as a dealer in securities in

any such jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to so qualify;

(ii) file any general consent to service of process in such jurisdiction; or

(iii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction if it is not so

subject.

(g) Earning Statement. The Depositor will make generally available

to its security holders and the Representative as soon as practicable an earning

statement that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act

and Rule 158 of the Commission promulgated thereunder covering a period of at

least twelve months beginning with the first fiscal quarter of the Depositor

occurring after the "effective date" (as defined in Rule 158) of the

Registration Statement.

(h) Copies of Reports. So long as the Offered Certificates are

outstanding, the Depositor shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to each

Underwriter (i) copies of each certificate, the annual statements of compliance

and the annual independent certified public accountant's servicing reports

furnished to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by

first class mail as soon as practicable after such statements and reports are

furnished to the Trustee; (ii) copies of each amendment to any of the Basic

Documents; and (iii) copies of all reports or other communications (financial or

other) furnished to holders of the Offered Certificates, and copies of any

reports and financial statements furnished to or filed with the Commission, any

governmental or regulatory authority or any national securities exchange.

(i) Use of Proceeds. The Depositor will apply the net proceeds from

the sale of the Offered Certificates as described in the Registration Statement,

the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus.

(j) Rating Agencies. To the extent, if any, that the ratings

provided with respect to the Offered Certificates by the Rating Agencies (as

offer of the Offered Certificates to the public in that Relevant Member State

prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to the Offered Certificates

which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State

or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to

the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, all in accordance with

the Prospectus Directive, except that it may, with effect from and including the

Relevant Implementation Date, make an offer of the Offered Certificates to the

public in that Relevant Member State at any time:

(a) to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to operate in the

financial markets or, if not so authorized or regulated, whose corporate

purpose is solely to invest in securities;

least 250 employees during the last financial year; (2) a total balance

sheet of more than (euro)43,000,000 and (3) an annual net turnover of more

accounts; or

(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.

For the purposes of this representation, the expression an "offer of the

Certificates to the public" in relation to any Offered Certificates in any

Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of

sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Offered Certificates to

be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or 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 includes any

relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State.

Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, hereby further represents and

agrees, with respect to the United Kingdom, that:

(i) 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

Financial Services and Markets Act) received by it in connection with the

issue or sale of the Offered Certificates in circumstances in which

Section 21(1) of the Financial Services and Markets Act does not apply to

the Depositor; and

(ii) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the

Financial Services and Markets Act with respect to anything done by it in

relation to the Offered Certificates in, from or otherwise involving the

United Kingdom.
