For the further protection of each Holder, Financial Security irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees:



	 	(a)      payment
        of the amount of any distribution of principal of, or interest on, the
        Obligations made during the Term Of This Policy to such Holder that is
        subsequently avoided in whole or in part as a preference payment under

        Security in accordance with Endorsement No. 1

	 	(b)     payment
        of any amount required to be paid under this Policy by Financial Security

  Financial Security shall be subrogated

Except to the extent expressly modified by an endorsement hereto, the following terms shall have the meanings specified for all purposes of this Policy.  "Holder" means the registered owner of any Obligation as indicated on the registration books maintained by or on behalf of the Obligor for such purpose or, if the Obligation is in bearer form, the holder of the Obligation.  "Scheduled Payments" means payments which are scheduled to be made during the Term Of This Policy in accordance with the original terms of the Obligations when issued and without regard to any amendment or modification of such Obligations thereafter; payments which become due on an accelerated basis as a result of (a) a
default by the Obligor, (b) an election by the Obligor to pay principal on an accelerated basis or (c) any other cause, shall not constitute "Scheduled Payments" unless Financial Security shall elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such principal due upon such acceleration to get any accrued interest to the date of acceleration.  "Term Of  This Policy" shall have the meaning set forth in Endorsement No. 1 hereto.

This Policy sets forth in full the undertaking of Financial Security, and shall not be modified, altered or affected by any other agreement or instrument, including any modification or amendment thereto, or by the merger, consolidation or dissolution of the Obligor.  Except to the extent expressly modified by an endorsement hereto, the premiums paid in respect of this Policy are nonrefundable for any reason whatsoever, including payment, or provision being made for payment, of the Obligations prior to maturity.  This Policy may not be canceled or revoked during the Term Of This Policy.

	 	Re:

The undersigned, a duly authorized officer of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trust Collateral Agent”), hereby certifies to Financial Security Assurance Inc. (“Financial Security”), with reference to Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy No. 51493-N dated February 11, 2004, (the “Policy”) issued by Financial Security in respect of the $222,000,000 Class A-1 1.08% Asset Backed Notes, $203,000,000 Class A-2 1.49% Asset Backed Notes, $160,000,000 Class A-3 2.18% Asset Backed Notes and $165,000,000 Class A-4 2.87% Asset Backed Notes of the above-referenced Trust (the “Obligations”), that:



(i)     The Trust Collateral Agent is
the Trust Collateral Agent for the Holders under the Indenture.


(ii)     The sum of all amounts on
 deposit (or scheduled to be on deposit) in the Note Distribution Account and available
 for distribution to the Holders pursuant to the Indenture will be $_________
 (the “Shortfall”) less than the aggregate amount of Scheduled Payments
 due on ___________________.


(iii)     The Trust Collateral Agent
is making a claim under the Policy for the Shortfall to be applied to the payment of Scheduled
 Payments.


(iv)     The Trust Collateral Agent agrees that, following receipt of funds from Financial Security, it shall (a) hold such amounts in trust and apply the same directly to the payment of Scheduled Payments on the Obligations when due; (b) not apply such funds for any other purpose; (c) not commingle such funds with other funds held by the Trust Collateral Agent and (d) maintain an accurate record of such payments with respect to each Obligation and the corresponding claim on the Policy and proceeds thereof, and, if the Obligation is required to be surrendered or presented for such payment, shall stamp on each such Obligation the legend “$[insert applicable amount] paid by Financial
Security and the balance hereof has been cancelled and reissued” and then shall
deliver such Obligation to Financial Security.


(v)     The Trust Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Holders, hereby assigns to Financial Security the rights of the Holders with respect to the Obligations to the extent of any payments under the Policy, including, without limitation, any amounts due to the Holders in respect of securities law violations arising from the offer and sale of the Obligations.  The foregoing assignment is in addition to, and not in limitation of, rights of subrogation otherwise available to Financial Security in respect of such payments.  Payments to Financial Security in respect of the foregoing assignment shall in all cases be subject to and subordinate to the rights of the Holders to receive all Scheduled Payments in respect
of the Obligations.  The Trust Collateral Agent shall take such action and deliver
such instruments as may be reasonably requested or required by Financial Security to
effectuate the purpose or provisions of this clause (v).
