Abstract: In this two part work we prove that for every finitely generated subgroup $Gamma<extOut(F_n)$, either $Gamma$ is virtually abelian or $H_b^2(Gamma;mathbbR)$ contains an embedding of $el{l}^1$. The method uses actions on hyperbolic spaces, for purposes of constructing quasimorphisms. Here in Part I, after presenting the general theory, we focus on the case of infinite lamination subgroups $Gamma$ - those for which the set of all attracting laminations of all elements of $Gamma$ is infinite - using actions on free splitting complexes of free groups.
