                   STRUCTURED FACILITY WAREHOUSING CREDIT AND
                               SECURITY AGREEMENT

STRUCTURED FACILITY WAREHOUSING CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of July
1, 2003 between Arbor Realty Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership
("Borrower"), and RESIDENTIAL FUNDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation
("Lender").

A.       Borrower has requested certain financing from Lender.

B.       Lender has agreed to provide that financing to Borrower, subject to the
         terms and conditions of this Agreement.

C.       On the Closing Date, ACM will assign the Initial Eligible Investments
         to Borrower and Borrower will assume certain obligations relating to
         the Initial Eligible Investments, as contemplated by Article 12 of this
         Agreement.

D.       Lender agrees to the assignment and assumption contemplated by Article
         12 of this Agreement.

E.       Subject to Borrower's satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
         Article 5, the "Closing Date" for the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement is July 1, 2003.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

THE CREDIT

1.1. THE STRUCTURED FACILITY COMMITMENT

On the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement,
including Exhibit H, Lender agrees to make Structured Facility Advances to
Borrower from the Closing Date to the Business Day immediately preceding the
Structured Facility Commitment Termination Date, during which period Borrower
may borrow, repay and reborrow in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. Lender has no obligation to make Structured Facility Advances if,
after giving effect to such Structured Facility Advance, the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of all Structured Facility Advances would exceed
the Structured Facility Commitment Amount. While a Default or Event of Default
exists, Lender may refuse to make any additional Structured Facility Advances to
Borrower. Effective as of the Closing Date, all "Structured Facility Advances"
outstanding under the Existing ACM Agreement will be assumed by Borrower
pursuant to Section 12.1, and will be deemed for all purposes to be Structured
Facility Advances made under this Agreement. All Structured Facility Advances
under this Agreement constitute a single indebtedness, and all of the Collateral
is security for the Structured Facility Note and for the performance of all of
the Obligations.

1.2. EXPIRATION OF STRUCTURED FACILITY COMMITMENT

The Structured Facility Commitment expires on the earliest of ("Structured
Facility Commitment Termination Date"): (a) June 30, 2006, as such date may be
extended in writing by Lender, in its sole discretion, on which date the
Structured Facility Commitment will expire of its own term, (b) the date ACM for
any reason ceases to be the manager of Guarantor and Borrower under and pursuant
to the Management Agreement, (c) the date any "event of default" (however
defined)

Dated: 7/1/2003
Amended:  7/24/2003

                                    Page 1-1

<PAGE>

occurs under any agreement between ACM and Lender, and (d) the date the
Structured Facility Commitment is terminated or the Structured Facility Advances
become due under Section 10.2. Lender agrees that upon request from Borrower
Lender will notify Borrower on or before April 30, 2006 if Lender does not
expect to extend the Structured Facility Commitment beyond June 30, 2006.

1.3. STRUCTURED FACILITY NOTE

Structured Facility Advances are evidenced by Borrower's promissory note,
payable to Lender on the form prescribed by Lender ("Structured Facility Note").
The term "Structured Facility Note" as used in this Agreement includes all
amendments, restatements, renewals or replacements of the original Structured
Facility Note and all substitutions for it. All terms and provisions of the
Structured Facility Note are incorporated into this Agreement.

PROCEDURES FOR OBTAINING STRUCTURED FACILITY ADVANCES

2.1. STRUCTURED FACILITY ADVANCES

To obtain any Structured Facility Advance under this Agreement, Borrower must
deliver not later than 10 Business Days before the Business Day on which
Borrower desires the Structured Facility Advance (other than the Structured
Facility Advances deemed to be outstanding against the Initial Eligible
Investments pursuant to Article 12), an Approval Request and Underwriting
Documents. Within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Approval Request and
supporting documents, Lender may, in its sole discretion, approve the requested
Structured Facility Advance by returning to Lender the Approval Request executed
by Lender. The approval will remain valid for a period of 30 days, unless
extended by Lender in its sole discretion. Lender will notify Borrower within
the 3 Business Days after receipt of the Approval Request in the event it
rejects that Approval Request. Subject to the delivery and approval of a
Structured Facility Advance Request, the delivery of the Underwriting Documents
and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2,
Borrower may obtain a Structured Facility Advance under this Agreement upon
compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section and in the applicable
Exhibit B, including delivery to Lender of all required Collateral Documents.
Lender's current form of Structured Facility Advance Request is set forth in
Exhibit A. Upon not less than 3 Business Days' prior Notice to Borrower, Lender
may modify its form of Approval Request, Structured Facility Advance Request,
and any other Exhibit or document referred to in this Section to conform to
current legal requirements or Lender practices and, as so modified, those
Exhibits and documents will become part of this Agreement.

INTEREST, PRINCIPAL AND FEES

3.1.     INTEREST

3.1 (a)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, Borrower must pay
         interest on the unpaid amount of each Structured Facility Advance from
         the date the Structured Facility Advance is made until it is paid in
         full at the Interest Rate specified in Exhibit H.

3.1 (b)  As long as no Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower is entitled
         to receive a benefit based on the average monthly Eligible Balances of
         Borrower maintained at a Designated Bank. After the end of each month,
         Lender will calculate the portion ("Balance Funded Portion") of the
         Structured Facility Advances that is equal to the lesser of (1) the
         average amount of Structured Facility Advances outstanding during such
         month or (2) the average amount of Eligible Balances during such month.
         Interest that would otherwise be payable by Borrower under Exhibit H on
         the Balance Funded Portion will be reduced by a "Balance Funding
         Credit" equal to:

                Balance Funded Portion x [(IR - BFR) / AB] x ADP,

         where "IR" is the weighted daily average of the Index Rate otherwise
         applicable under Exhibit H, "BFR" is the applicable Balance Funded
         Rate, "AB" is the Accrual Basis and "ADP" is the number of days in the
         month (or other applicable period) for which the Balance Funding Credit
         is applicable. The Structured Facility Advances outstanding during a
         month will be allocated to the Balance Funded Portion in the order
         determined by Lender in its sole discretion.

         If, for any month, a portion of the average amount of Eligible Balances
         remains ("Remainder") after the Balance Funded Portion has been
         deducted, or Borrower has Eligible Balances on deposit in
         interest-bearing demand deposit or time deposit accounts in respect of
         which Lender has received a Depository Benefit, Lender will provide a
         benefit in the form of an "Earnings Credit" on the Eligible Balances
         maintained in time deposit accounts with the Designated Bank, and
         Lender will provide a benefit in the form of an "Earnings Allowance" on
         the Eligible Balances maintained in demand deposit accounts with the
         Designated Bank. Any Earnings Allowance will be used first and any
         Earnings Credit will be used second as a credit against Miscellaneous
         Fees and Charges (including Designated Bank Charges) and against other
         fees payable to Lender under this Agreement, including Structured
         Facility Commitment Fees, and Loan Package Fees, and may be used, at
         Lender's option, to reduce accrued interest. Any Earnings Allowance not
         used during the month in which the benefit was received will be
         accumulated and must be used within 6 months of the month in which the
         benefit was received. As long as no Default or Event of Default exists,
         any Earnings Credit not used during the month in which the benefit was
         received will be used to provide a cash benefit to Borrower. Any
         Earnings Credit retained by Lender as a result of a Default or Event of
         Default will be applied to the payment of Borrower's Obligations in the
         order Lender determines in its sole discretion.

         The Balance Funded Portion, the Balance Funding Credit, the Earnings
         Credit and the Earnings Allowance for any month will be determined by
         Lender in its sole discretion and Lender's determination of those
         amounts is conclusive and binding absent manifest error. In no event
         will the aggregate amount of the benefits received by Borrower under
         this Section exceed the Depository Benefit.

         Either party to this Agreement may terminate the benefits provided for
         in this Section, in whole or in part, effective immediately upon Notice
         to the other party, if the terminating party determines (which
         determination is conclusive and binding on the other party, absent
         manifest error) at any time that any applicable law, rule, regulation,
         order or decree or any interpretation or administration of any such
         law, rule, regulation, order or decree by any governmental authority
         charged with its interpretation or administration, or compliance by
         such party with any request or directive (whether or not having the
         force of law) of any such authority, makes it unlawful or impossible
         for the party sending the Notice to continue to offer or receive all or
         any portion of the benefits provided for in this Section. No Notice is
         required for a termination of benefits as a result of a Default or
         Event of Default.

3.1 (c)  Lender computes interest on the basis of the actual number of days in
         each month and a year of 360 days ("Accrual Basis"). Borrower must pay
         interest monthly in arrears, not later than 9 days after the date of
         Lender's invoice or, if applicable, 2 days after the date of Lender's
         account analysis statement, commencing with the first month following
         the Closing Date and on the Structured Facility Maturity Date.

3.1 (d)  If, for any reason, (1) Borrower repays a Structured Facility Advance
         on the same day that it was made by Lender or (2) Borrower instructs
         Lender not to make a previously requested Structured Facility Advance
         after Lender has reserved funds or made other arrangements necessary to
         enable Lender to fund that Structured Facility Advance, Borrower agrees
         to pay to Lender an administrative fee equal to 1 day of interest on
         that Structured Facility Advance at the rate of 1.50% per annum.
         Borrower must pay all administrative fees within 9 days after the date
         of Lender's invoice or, if applicable, within 2 days after the date of
         Lender's account analysis statement.

3.1 (e)  After an Event of Default occurs and upon Notice to Borrower by Lender,
         unless and until such Event of Default is waived or cured as provided
         in this Agreement, the unpaid amount of each Structured Facility
         Advance will bear interest at the Default Rate until paid in full.

3.1 (f)  Lender will adjust the rates of interest provided for in this Agreement
         as of the effective date of each change in the applicable index.
         Lender's determination of such rates of interest as of any date of
         determination are conclusive and binding, absent manifest error.

3.2.     INTEREST LIMITATION

Lender does not intend, by reason of this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan
Document, to receive interest in excess of the amount permitted by applicable
law. If Lender receives any interest in excess of the amount permitted by
applicable law, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of this
Agreement, the Note or otherwise, Lender will apply the excess to the unpaid
principal balance of the Structured Facility Advances and not to the payment of
interest. If all Structured Facility Advance have been paid in full and the
Structured Facility Commitment has expired or has been terminated, Lender will
remit any excess to Borrower. This Section controls every other provision of all
agreements between Borrower and Lender and is binding upon and available to any
subsequent holder of the Note.

3.3.     PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS

3.3 (a)  Borrower must pay Lender the outstanding principal amount of all
         Structured Facility Advances in 8 equal monthly installments,
         commencing on the date 2 months after the Structured Facility
         Commitment Termination Date and ending on the Structured Facility

3.3 (b)  Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.1(e), Borrower may prepay all
         or any portion of the Structured Facility Advances without premium or
         penalty at any time.

3.3 (c)  Upon telephonic or written Notice to Borrower by Lender, Borrower must
         pay to Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender to cause the Funding Bank
         to charge Borrower's Operating Account for, the amount of any
         outstanding Structured Facility Advance against a specific Pledged
         Asset upon the earliest occurrence of any of the following events:

         (1)      For any Pledged Asset, the Warehouse Period elapses.

         (2)      On the date a Structured Facility Advance was made if the
                  Pledged Asset to be funded or acquired with that Structured
                  Facility Advance is not closed and funded or acquired.

         (3)      One (1) Business Day elapses from the date a Structured
                  Facility Advance was made against a Pledged Asset without
                  receipt of the Collateral Documents relating to that Pledged
                  Asset required to be delivered on that date, or such
                  Collateral Documents, upon examination by Lender, are found
                  not to be in compliance with the requirements of this
                  Agreement.

         (4)      At the option of Lender, in its sole discretion, ten (10)
                  Business Days elapse without the return of a Collateral
                  Document delivered by Lender to Borrower under a Trust Receipt
                  for correction or completion.

         (5)      On the date on which a Pledged Asset is determined to have
                  been originated or acquired based on material, untrue,
                  incomplete or inaccurate information or otherwise to be
                  subject to fraud, whether or not Borrower had knowledge of the
                  misrepresentation, incomplete or incorrect information or
                  fraud, on the date on which Borrower knows, has reason to
                  know, or receives Notice from Lender, that (A) one or more of
                  the representations and warranties set forth in Article 9 were
                  inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect on any date
                  when made or deemed made, or (B) Borrower has failed to
                  perform or comply in all material respects with any covenant,
                  term or condition applicable to it set forth in Article 9.

         (6)      On the date a Pledged Investment or a Lien prior to the
                  interest securing or backing repayment of the Pledged
                  Investment is defaulted and remains in default for a period of
                  60 days or more.

         (9)      Upon the sale, maturity, other disposition, refinancing or
                  prepayment of any Pledged Asset.

         (10)     For any Pledged Asset, Borrower consents to an extension of
                  the maturity without the approval of Lender.

3.3 (d)  In addition to the payments required by Sections 3.3(a) and 3.3(c), if
         the principal amount of any Pledged Investment is prepaid in whole or
         in part while a Structured Facility Advance is outstanding against such
         Pledged Investment, Borrower must pay to Lender, without the necessity
         of prior demand or Notice from Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender,
         upon Notice to Borrower, to cause the Funding Bank to charge Borrower's
         Operating Account for, the amount of the prepayment, to be applied
         against the applicable Structured Facility Advance.

3.3 (e)  The proceeds of the sale, other disposition or repayment of Pledged
         Assets must be paid directly by the purchaser or refinancing lender to
         the Cash Collateral Account. Borrower must give Notice to Lender in
         writing or by telephone followed promptly by written Notice of the
         Pledged Assets for which proceeds have been received. Upon receipt of
         Borrower's Notice, Lender will apply any proceeds deposited into the
         Cash Collateral Account to the payment of the Structured Facility
         Advances related to the Pledged Assets identified by Borrower in its
         Notice, and those Pledged Assets will be considered to have been
         redeemed from pledge. Lender is entitled to rely upon Borrower's
         affirmation that deposits in the Cash Collateral Account represent
         proceeds of the purchase or repayment of the Pledged Assets specified
         by Borrower in its Notice. If the payment for the purchase or repayment
         of Pledged Assets is less than the outstanding Structured Facility
         Advances against the Pledged Assets identified by Borrower in its
         Notice, Borrower must pay to Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender to
         cause the Funding Bank to charge Borrower's Operating Account in, an
         amount equal to that deficiency. As long as no Default or Event of
         Default exists, Lender will return to Borrower any excess proceeds of
         Pledged Assets.

3.3 (f)  Lender reserves the right to revalue any Pledged Asset against which a
         Structured Facility Advance is outstanding under this Agreement.
         Borrower must pay to Lender, without the necessity of prior demand or
         Notice from Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender, upon Notice to
         Borrower, to cause the Funding Bank to charge Borrower's Operating
         Account for, any amount required after any such revaluation to reduce
         the principal amount of the Structured Facility Advance outstanding
         against the revalued Pledged Asset to an amount equal to the Advance
         Rate for the applicable type of Pledged Asset multiplied by the Fair
         Market Value of the Pledged Asset.

3.3 (g)  Borrower must give Lender Notice not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
         Business Day immediately preceding the payment to Lender of proceeds of
         Pledged Assets or any other payment on the Obligations if the amount of
         the payment exceeds $20,000,000. If Lender is unable to reinvest that
         payment as a result of Borrower's failure to provide such Notice,
         Borrower must pay to Lender an administrative fee equal to 1 day of
         interest on the amount of that payment at a rate of 1.50% per annum.
         Administrative and other fees are due and payable in the same manner as
         interest is due and payable under this Agreement.

3.4.     BUYDOWNS

Borrower may prepay a portion of the Structured Facility Advances in an amount
equal to $1,000,000 or an integral multiple $250,000 in excess thereof pursuant
to this Section 3.4 (any such prepayment is hereafter referred to as a
"Buydown"). A Buydown shall be deemed a prepayment of Structured Facility
Advances as agreed between Borrower and Lender, but shall not entitle Borrower
to the release of any Collateral. Borrower shall provide Lender 1 Business Day's
advance notice of any Buydown. All or any portion of a Buydown may be reborrowed
("Buyup") in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $250,000
in excess thereof, upon written notice to Lender no later than 10:30 a.m. on any
Business Day, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and all other conditions precedent have been satisfied or waived.

shall withdraw each Buydown from Borrower's Operating Account by 12:00 noon on
the day thereof. Each request for a Buydown or Buyup will be on the corporate
letterhead of Borrower and no more than 2 Buydowns/Buyups will occur in any
one-week period. In the event Lender receives a payment of Structured Facility
Advances which would, as a result of the Buydown, reduce the outstanding
principal balance of the Structured Facility Advances to an amount less than
zero, a portion of the Buydown sufficient to eliminate such shortfall equal to
$1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof, will be
readvanced to Borrower. Lender may apply the Buydown to reduce the interest on
Structured Facility Advances in such order as Lender, in its sole discretion,
shall determine.

3.5.     STRUCTURED FACILITY COMMITMENT FEES; EXIT FEES; PROFIT SHARING

3.5 (a)  At the time of each Structured Facility Advance against a Pledged
         Investment, Borrower must pay Lender a fee ("Structured Facility
         Commitment Fee") in the amount as set forth on Exhibit I. Structured
         Facility Commitment Fees are due when incurred, but are not delinquent
         if paid within 9 days after the date of Lender's invoice or, if
         applicable, within 2 days after the date of Lender's account analysis
         statement.

3.5 (b)  In the event Borrower originates or acquires a Refinancing Loan, and
         the Refinancing Loan is either (i) sold by Borrower to a Person other
         than Lender or a Subsidiary of Lender, or (ii) is not sold within 180
         days after origination of the Refinancing Loan, Borrower will pay to
         Lender an exit fee in the amount as set forth on Exhibit I ("Exit
         Fee"). Borrower will promptly notify Lender of its origination or
         acquisition of any Refinancing Loan, and of the occurrence of one of
         the events described in clause (i) or (ii) above.

3.5 (c) Upon any refinancing, other repayment, sale or other disposition of a
Pledged Investment that is a Bridge Mortgage Loan or a Mezzanine Investment,
Borrower will pay to Lender an amount equal to the amount as set forth on
Exhibit I. These payments will be retained by Lender from the proceeds of such
refinancing, other repayment, sale or other disposition, or Lender shall cause
the Funding Bank to charge Borrower's Operating Account for that payment. Not
less than 1 Business Day prior to the date proceeds of any refinancing, other
repayment, sale or other disposition of a Pledged Investment with respect to
which amounts are payable under this Section 3.5(c) are deposited into the Cash
Collateral Account, Borrower will provide Lender with a calculation of the Net
Profit on such Pledged Investment and the information used by Borrower to make
that calculation. If Borrower fails to provide the calculation and information
described in the preceding sentence, Lender will not release any excess proceeds
of the related Pledged Investment pursuant to Section 3.3(e) until 1 Business
Day after such calculation and information are provided. Lender may, in its sole
and absolute discretion, recalculate such Net Profit, and in the absence of
manifest error, Lender's recalculation of the Net Profit on any such Pledged
Investment will be conclusive. Within 3 Business Days of receiving notice of
Lender's recalculation of the Net Profit, Borrower must give notice to Lender
that it disagrees with such calculation and, in such event the parties agree to,
within 3 Business Days of such notice by Borrower, review and discuss the
calculation. If the parties are still unable to agree on the calculation of the
Net Profit, the calculation will be referred to independent certified public
accountants mutually acceptable to Lender and Borrower, and their calculation of
Net Profit shall be conclusive. Borrower will bear the cost of the fees and
expenses of such accountants.

3.6.     MISCELLANEOUS FEES AND CHARGES

Borrower must reimburse Lender for all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges. Borrower
must pay all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges within 9 days after the date of
Lender's invoice or, if applicable, within 2 days after the date of Lender's
account analysis statement.

3.7.     OVERDRAFT ADVANCES

If, under the authorization given by Borrower in the Funding Bank Agreement or
pursuant to this Agreement, Lender debits Borrower's Operating Account or
directs the Funding Bank to honor an item presented against the Operating
Account and that debit or direction results in an overdraft, Lender may make an
additional Structured Facility Advance to fund that overdraft ("Overdraft
Advance"). Borrower must pay (a) the outstanding amount of any Overdraft
Advance, within 1 Business Day after the date of the Overdraft Advance, and (b)
interest on the amount of the Overdraft Advance, at a rate per annum equal to
the Bank One Prime Rate plus 2%, within 9 days after the date of Lender's
invoice or, if applicable, within 2 days after the date of Lender's account
analysis statement.

3.8.     METHOD OF MAKING PAYMENTS

3.8 (a)  Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, Borrower must make all
         payments under this Agreement to Lender by the close of business on the
         date when due unless the date is not a Business Day. If the due date is
         not a Business Day, payment is due on, and interest will accrue to, the
         next Business Day. Borrower must make all payments in United States
         dollars in immediately available funds transferred by wire to accounts
         designated by Lender.

3.8 (b)  Borrower authorizes Lender to cause the Funding Bank to charge
         Borrower's Operating Account for any interest or fees due and payable
         to Lender on or after the 9th day after the date of Lender's invoice
         or, if applicable, on or after the 2nd day after the date of Lender's
         account analysis statement. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of
         Default, Lender will provide Borrower with reasonable Notice of any
         such charge. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default,
         Lender may cause the Funding Bank to charge the Operating Account
         without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from Lender.

3.8 (c)  While a Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower authorizes Lender
         to cause the Funding Bank to charge Borrower's Operating Account for
         any Obligations due and payable to Lender, without the necessity of
         prior demand or Notice from Lender.

4.3.     RELEASE OF SECURITY INTEREST IN PLEDGED INVESTMENTS AND PLEDGED
         SECURITIES

4.3 (a)  Lender will release its security interest in the Pledged Assets only
         against payment to Lender of the Release Amount in connection with
         those Pledged Assets.

4.3 (b)  If Pledged Assets are transferred to a pool custodian or an Investor
         for inclusion in a Mortgage Pool and Lender has not received the
         Release Amount with respect to that Pledged Asset before the issuance
         of the related Mortgage-backed Security, then that Mortgage-backed
         Security, when issued, is a Pledged Security, Lender's security
         interest continues in the Pledged Assets backing that Pledged Security
         and Lender is entitled to possession of the Pledged Security in the
         manner provided in this Agreement.

4.3 (c)  Lender has the exclusive right to possession of all Pledged Securities
         or, if Pledged Securities are issued in book-entry form or issued in
         certificated form and delivered to a clearing corporation (as that term
         is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of Minnesota) or its nominee,
         Lender has the right to have the Pledged Securities registered in the
         name of a securities intermediary (as that term is defined in the
         Uniform Commercial Code of Minnesota) in an account containing only
         customer securities and credited to an account of Lender. Lender has no
         duty or obligation to deliver Pledged Securities to an Investor or to
         credit Pledged Securities to the account of an Investor or an
         Investor's designee except against payment for those Pledged
         Securities. Borrower acknowledges that Lender may enter into one or
         more standing arrangements with securities intermediaries with respect
         to Pledged Securities issued in book entry form or issued in
         certificated form and delivered to a clearing corporation or its
         designee, under which the Pledged Securities are registered in the name
         of the securities intermediary, and Borrower agrees, upon request of
         Lender, to execute and deliver to those securities intermediaries
         Borrower's written concurrence in any such standing arrangements.

4.3 (d)  If no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
         Borrower may redeem a Pledged Asset from Lender's security interest by
         notifying Lender of its intention to redeem the Pledged Asset from
         pledge and either (1) paying, or causing an Investor to pay, to Lender,
         for application as a prepayment on the principal balance of the
         Structured Facility Note, the Release Amount in connection with the
         Pledged Asset, or (2) delivering substitute Collateral that, in
         addition to being acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion, will,
         when included with the remaining Collateral, result in a Structured
         Facility Collateral Value of all Pledged Assets held by Lender that is
         at least equal to the aggregate outstanding Structured Facility
         Advances.

4.3 (e)  After a Default or Event of Default occurs, Lender may, with no
         liability to Borrower or any Person, continue to release its security
         interest in any Pledged Asset against payment of the Release Amount for
         that Pledged Asset.

4.3 (f)  The amount to be paid by Borrower to obtain the release of Lender's
         security interest in a Pledged Asset ("Release Amount") will be (1) in
         connection with the sale of a Pledged Asset by Lender while an Event of
         Default exists, the amount paid to Lender in a commercially reasonable
         disposition of that Pledged Asset, and (2) otherwise, until an Event of
         Default occurs, the principal amount of the Structured Facility Advance
         outstanding against the Pledged Asset.

4.4.     COLLECTION AND SERVICING RIGHTS

4.4 (a)  If no Event of Default exists, Borrower or Servicer may service and
         receive and collect directly all sums payable to Borrower in respect of
         the Collateral other than proceeds of any sale of any Collateral. All
         proceeds of any sale of Collateral must be paid directly to the Cash
         Collateral Account for application as provided in this Agreement.

4.4 (b)  After an Event of Default, Lender or its designee is entitled to
         service and receive and collect all sums payable to Borrower in respect
         of the Collateral, and in such case (1) Lender or its designee in its
         discretion may, in its own name, in the name of Borrower or otherwise,
         demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time
         payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the
         Collateral, but Lender has no obligation to do so, (2) Borrower must,
         if Lender requests it to do so, hold in trust for the benefit of Lender
         and immediately pay to Lender at its office designated by Notice, all
         amounts received by Borrower upon or in respect of any of the
         Collateral, advising Lender as to the source of those funds and (3) all
         amounts so received and collected by Lender will be held by it as part
         of the Collateral.

4.5.     RETURN OF COLLATERAL AT END OF STRUCTURED FACILITY COMMITMENT

If (a) the Structured Facility Commitment has expired or been terminated, and
(b) no Structured Facility Advances, interest or other Obligations are
outstanding and unpaid, Lender will release its security interest and will
deliver all Collateral in its possession to Borrower at Borrower's expense.
Borrower's acknowledgement or receipt for any Collateral released or delivered
to Borrower under any provision of this Agreement is a complete and full
acquittance for the Collateral so returned, and Lender is discharged from any
liability or responsibility for that Collateral. Nothing in this Section 4.5
shall limit Lender's obligation to release its security interest in specific
items of Collateral as provided elsewhere in this Agreement.

4.6.     DELIVERY OF COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS

4.6 (a)  Lender may deliver documents relating to the Collateral to Borrower for
         correction or completion under a Trust Receipt.

4.6 (b)  If no Default or Event of Default exists, upon delivery by Borrower to
         Lender of shipping instructions pursuant to the applicable Exhibit B,
         Lender will transmit Pledged Investments or Pledged Securities,
         together with all related loan documents and pool documents previously
         received by Lender under the requirements of the applicable Exhibit B,
         to the designated Investor or Approved Custodian or to another party
         designated by Borrower and acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion.

4.6 (c)  If a Default or Event of Default exists, Lender may, without liability
         to Borrower or any other Person, continue to deliver Pledged
         Investments or Pledged Securities, together with all related loan
         documents and pool documents in Lender's possession, to the applicable
         Investor, or Approved Custodian or to another party acceptable to
         Lender in its sole discretion.

4.6 (d)  Upon payment of the Release Amount for a Multifamily Property or a
         Commercial Property, Lender agrees to provide a satisfaction for the
         related Property Mortgage or consent to the transfer thereof by the
         Property Subsidiary.

4.7.     BORROWER REMAINS LIABLE

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower shall remain liable
under each item of the Collateral to observe and perform all the conditions and
obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance
with the terms thereof and any other agreement giving rise thereto, and in
accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions thereof. Whether or not

Subsidiaries has paid or caused to be paid all taxes shown on those returns or
on any assessment, to the extent that those taxes have become due, including all
FICA payments and withholding taxes, if appropriate. The amounts reserved as a
liability for income and other taxes payable in the financial statements
described in Section 6.6 are sufficient for payment of all unpaid federal, state
and local income, excise, property and other taxes, whether or not disputed, of
Borrower and its Subsidiaries accrued for or applicable to the period and on the
dates of those financial statements and all years and periods prior to those
financial statements and for which Borrower and its Subsidiaries may be liable
in their own right or as transferee of the assets of, or as successor to, any
other Person. No tax Liens have been filed and no material claims are being
asserted against Borrower, any Subsidiary of Borrower or any property of
Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower with respect to any taxes, fees or
charges.

6.12.    AGREEMENTS

Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary of Borrower is a party to any agreement,
instrument or indenture or subject to any restriction materially and adversely
affecting its business, operations, assets or financial condition, except as
disclosed in the financial statements described in Section 6.6. Neither Borrower
nor any Subsidiary of Borrower is in default in the performance, observance or
fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any
agreement, instrument, or indenture which default is reasonably likely to result
in a material adverse change in Borrower's business, operations, properties or
financial condition as a whole. No holder of any indebtedness of Borrower or of
any of its Subsidiaries has given notice of any asserted default under that
indebtedness, and no liquidation or dissolution of Borrower or of any of its
Subsidiaries and no receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or
other similar proceedings relative to Borrower or of any of its Subsidiaries or

(whether real or personal, tangible or intangible) reflected on the financial

Borrower has disposed of since the date of those financial statements either in

conduct of Borrower's or the Subsidiary's business. All of Borrower's properties
and assets are free and clear of all Liens except as disclosed in Borrower's
financial statements.

6.14.    ERISA

Each Plan is in substantial compliance with all applicable requirements of ERISA
and the Internal Revenue Code and with all material applicable rulings and
regulations issued under the provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code
setting forth those requirements, except where any failure to comply is not
reasonably likely to result in a material loss to Borrower or any ERISA
Affiliate. All of the minimum funding standards or other contribution
obligations applicable to each Plan have been satisfied. No Plan is a
defined-benefit pension plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, and there is no
Multiemployer Plan.

Except as required under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code, Section 601

Subsidiary is obligated to provide post-retirement medical or insurance benefits
with respect to employees or former employees.

6.16.    ASSUMED NAMES

Borrower does not originate Mortgage Loans or otherwise conduct business under
any names other than its legal name and the assumed names set forth on Exhibit
G. Borrower has made all filings and taken all other action as may be required
under the laws of any jurisdiction in which it originates Mortgage Loans or
otherwise conducts business under any assumed name. Borrower's use of the
assumed names set forth on Exhibit G does not conflict with any other Person's
legal rights to any such name, nor otherwise give rise to any liability by
Borrower to any other Person. Borrower may amend Exhibit G to add or delete any
assumed names used by Borrower to conduct business. An amendment to Exhibit G to
add an assumed name is not effective until Borrower has delivered to Lender an
assumed name certificate in the jurisdictions in which the assumed name is to be
used, which must be satisfactory in form and content to Lender, in its sole
discretion. In connection with any amendment to delete a name from Exhibit G,
Borrower represents and warrants that it has ceased using that assumed name in
all jurisdictions.

                  amendment statements evidencing the assignment to Lender or
                  its designee of any Uniform Commercial Code financing

         (4)      Act, or contract with a third party to act, at Borrower's
                  expense, as servicer or subservicer of Collateral requiring
                  servicing, and perform all obligations required under any
                  Collateral, including Servicing Contracts and Purchase
                  Commitments.

         (5)      Require Borrower to assemble and make available to Lender the
                  Collateral and all related books and records at a place
                  designated by Lender.

         (6)      Enter onto property where any Collateral or related books and
                  records are located and take possession of those items with or
                  without judicial process; and obtain access to Borrower's data
                  processing equipment, computer hardware and software relating
                  to the Collateral and use all of the foregoing and the
                  information contained in the foregoing in any manner Lender
                  deems necessary for the purpose of effectuating its rights
                  under this Agreement and any other Loan Document.

         (7)      Before the disposition of the Collateral, prepare it for
                  disposition in any manner and to the extent Lender deems
                  appropriate.

         (8)      Exercise all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under
                  the Uniform Commercial Code of Minnesota or other applicable
                  law, including selling or otherwise disposing of all or any
                  portion of the Collateral at one or more public or private
                  sales, whether or not the Collateral is present at the place
                  of sale, for cash or credit or future delivery, on terms and
                  conditions and in the manner as Lender may determine,
                  including sale under any applicable Purchase Commitment.
                  Lender will give Borrower not less than 10 days' notice of any
                  public sale or of the date after which any private sale may be
                  held. Borrower agrees that 10 days' notice is reasonable
                  notice. Lender may, without notice or publication, adjourn any
                  public or private sale one or more times by announcement at
                  the time and place fixed for the sale, and the sale may be
                  held at any time or place announced at the adjournment. In the
                  case of a sale of all or any portion of the Collateral on
                  credit or for future delivery, the Collateral sold on those
                  terms may be retained by Lender until the purchaser pays the
                  selling price or takes possession of the Collateral. Lender
                  has no liability to Borrower if a purchaser fails to pay for
                  or take possession of Collateral sold on those terms, and in
                  the case of any such failure, Lender may sell the Collateral
                  again upon notice complying with this Section.

         (9)      Instead of or in conjunction with exercising the power of sale
                  authorized by Section 10.2(c)(8), Lender may proceed by suit
                  at law or in equity to collect all amounts due on the
                  Collateral, or to foreclose Lender's Lien on and sell all or
                  any portion of the Collateral pursuant to a judgment or decree
                  of a court of competent jurisdiction.

         (10)     Proceed against Borrower on the Structured Facility Note or
                  against the Guarantor under the Guaranty.

         (11)     Retain all excess proceeds from the sale or other disposition
                  of the Collateral, and apply them to the payment of the
                  Obligations under Section 10.3.

10.2 (d) Lender will incur no liability as a result of the commercially
         reasonable sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the
         Collateral at any public or private sale or other disposition. Borrower
         waives (to the extent permitted by law) any claims it may have against
         Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the
         Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price
         that Lender might have

Dated: 7/1/2003
Amended:  7/24/2003

<PAGE>

         obtained at a public sale, or was less than the aggregate amount of the
         outstanding Structured Facility Advances, accrued and unpaid interest
         on those Structured Facility Advances, and unpaid fees, even if Lender
         accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to
         more than one offeree. Borrower agrees that any sale of Collateral
         under the terms of a Purchase Commitment, or any other disposition of
         Collateral arranged by Borrower, whether before or after the occurrence
         of an Event of Default, will be deemed to have been made in a
         commercially reasonable manner.

10.2 (e) Borrower specifically waives and releases (to the extent permitted by
         law) any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal that Borrower
         has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or
         adopted after the date of this Agreement, and any right to require
         Lender to (1) proceed against any Person, (2) proceed against or
         exhaust any of the Collateral or pursue its rights and remedies against
         the Collateral in any particular order, or (3) pursue any other remedy
         within its power. Lender is not required to take any action to preserve
         any rights of Borrower against holders of mortgages having priority to
         the Lien of any Mortgage or Security Agreement included in the
         Collateral or to preserve Borrower's rights against other prior
         parties.

10.2 (f) Lender may, but is not obligated to, advance any sums or do any act or
         thing necessary to uphold or enforce the Lien and priority of, or the
         security intended to be afforded by, any Mortgage or Security Agreement
         included in the Collateral, including payment of delinquent taxes or
         assessments and insurance premiums. All advances, charges, costs and
         expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements,
         incurred or paid by Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy
         conferred by this Agreement, or in the enforcement of this Agreement,
         together with interest on those amounts at the Default Rate, from the
         time paid by Lender until repaid by Borrower, are deemed to be
         principal outstanding under this Agreement and the Structured Facility
         Note.

10.2 (g) No failure or delay on the part of Lender to exercise any right, power
         or remedy provided in this Agreement or under any other Loan Document,
         at law or in equity, will operate as a waiver of that right, power or
         remedy. No single or partial exercise by Lender of any right, power or
         remedy provided under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, at law
         or in equity, precludes any other or further exercise of that right,
         power, or remedy by Lender, or Lender's exercise of any other right,
         power or remedy. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower waives all
         defenses based on the statute of limitations to the extent permitted by
         law. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Loan
         Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided
         at law or in equity.

10.2 (h) Borrower grants Lender a license or other right to use, without charge,
         Borrower's computer programs, other programs, labels, patents,
         copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names,
         trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, or any property of a
         similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for
         sale and selling any of the Collateral and Borrower's rights under all
         licenses and all other agreements related to the foregoing inure to
         Lender's benefit until the Obligations are paid in full.

10.3.    APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

Lender may apply the proceeds of any sale, disposition or other enforcement of
Lender's Lien on all or any portion of the Collateral to the payment of the
Obligations in the order Lender determines in its sole discretion. From and
after the indefeasible payment to Lender of all of the Obligations, any
remaining proceeds of the Collateral will be paid to Borrower, or to its
successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. If
the proceeds of any

<PAGE>

sale, disposition or other enforcement of the Collateral are insufficient to
cover the costs and expenses of that sale, disposition or other enforcement and
payment in full of all Obligations, Borrower is liable for the deficiency.

10.4.    LENDER APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

Borrower appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution,
for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, the Structured
Facility Note and the other Loan Documents and taking any action and executing
any instruments that Lender deems necessary or advisable to accomplish that
purpose. Borrower's appointment of Lender as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and
coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Lender may give notice of its Lien on the Collateral to any Person, either in
Borrower's name or in its own name, endorse all Pledged Investments or Pledged
Securities payable to the order of Borrower, change or cause to be changed the
book-entry registration or name of subscriber or Investor on any Pledged
Security, prepare and submit for filing Uniform Commercial Code amendment
statements with respect to any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements
filed in connection with any item of Collateral or receive, endorse and collect
all checks made payable to the order of Borrower representing payment on account
of the principal of or interest on, or the proceeds of sale of, any of the
Pledged Investments or Pledged Securities and give full discharge for those
transactions. Lender agrees not to exercise the foregoing power of attorney
except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

10.5.    RIGHT OF SET-OFF

If Borrower defaults in the payment of any Obligation, Lender may, without
Notice to or demand on Borrower (which Notice or demand Borrower expressly
waives), set-off, appropriate or apply any indebtedness at any time owed by
Lender to or for the account of Borrower, against the Obligations, whether or
not those Obligations have matured.

All periods of Notice will be measured from the date of delivery if delivered
manually or by facsimile, from the first Business Day after the date of sending
if sent by overnight courier or from 4 days after the date of mailing if sent by
United States mail, except that Notices to Lender under Article 2 and Section
3.3 (e) shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by
Lender. Borrower authorizes Lender to accept Borrower's Structured Facility
Advance Requests, shipping requests, wire transfer instructions and security
delivery instructions transmitted to Lender by facsimile and those documents,
when transmitted to Lender by facsimile have the same force and effect as the
originals.

11.2.    REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES; INDEMNITY

Borrower must: (a) pay Lender a document production fee in connection with the
preparation and negotiation of this Agreement; (b) pay such additional
documentation production fees as Lender may require and all out-of-pocket costs
and expenses of Lender, including reasonable fees, service charges and
disbursements of counsel to Lender (including allocated costs of internal
counsel), in connection with the amendment, enforcement and administration of
this Agreement, the Structured Facility Note, and other Loan Documents, the
making, repayment and payment of interest on the Structured Facility Advances
and the payment of all other Obligations under Loan Documents; (c) indemnify,
pay, and hold harmless Lender and any other holder of the Structured Facility
Note from and against, all present and future stamp, documentary and other
similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and save Lender and any
other holder of the Structured Facility Note harmless from and against all
liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such
taxes; and (d) indemnify, pay and hold harmless Lender and all of its
Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents and any subsequent holder
of the Structured Facility Note (collectively called the "Indemnitees") from and
against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of every kind or nature (including the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Indemnitees (including
allocated costs of internal counsel) in connection with any investigative,
administrative

or judicial proceeding, whether or not the Indemnitees have been designated as
parties to such proceeding) that may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted
against such Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of this
Agreement, the Structured Facility Note, or any other Loan Document or any of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Structured Facility Note
and the other Loan Documents, including against all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements
of every kind or nature (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel to the Indemnitees (including allocated costs of internal counsel) in
connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding,
whether or not the Indemnitees have been designated as parties to such
proceeding) arising from any breach of Sections 9.1(p) and 9.2(k) or the making
of any Mortgage Loan in which any mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor is a
Person named in any Restriction List and to whom the provision of financial
services is prohibited or otherwise restricted by applicable law ("Indemnified
Liabilities"), except that Borrower has no obligation under this Agreement with
respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of any such Indemnitees. To the extent that the undertaking to
indemnify, pay and hold harmless as set forth in the preceding sentence may be
unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, Borrower must
contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under
applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities
incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. The agreement of Borrower contained
in this Article survives the expiration or termination of this Agreement and the
payment in full of the Structured Facility Note. Attorneys' fees and
disbursements incurred in enforcing, or on appeal from, a judgment under this
Agreement are recoverable separately from and in addition to any other amount
included in such judgment, and this clause is intended to be severable from the
other provisions of this Agreement and to survive and not be merged into such
judgment.

11.3.    FINANCIAL INFORMATION

All financial statements and reports furnished to Lender under this Agreement
must be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with
that applied in preparing the financial statements as at the end of and for
Borrower's most recent fiscal year (except to the extent otherwise required to
conform to good accounting practice).

11.4.    TERMS BINDING UPON SUCCESSORS; SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS

The terms and provisions of this Agreement are binding upon and inure to the
benefit of Borrower, Lender and their respective successors and assigns. All of
Borrower's representations, warranties, covenants and agreements survive the
making of any Structured Facility Advance, and except where a longer period is
set forth in this Agreement, remain effective for as long as the Structured
Facility Commitment is outstanding or there remain any Obligations to be paid or
performed.

11.5.    ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

This Agreement and the Obligations of Borrower may not be assigned by Borrower.
Lender may, subject to the limitations set forth below, assign or transfer, in
whole or in part, any Structured Facility Advances, together with its
corresponding rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and
further may sell participations in all or any part of any Structured Facility
Advances or any other interest in the Obligations or any of its obligations
under this Agreement to another Person. The rights of any such assignee or
participant against Lender in respect of such assignment or participation are
those set forth in the agreement executed by that Lender in favor of the
assignee or participant relating thereto, but such assignee or participant shall
not become a party to this Agreement. Lender shall remain solely responsible to
Borrower for the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. Lender
shall retain all voting rights with respect to the Structured Facility Note, the
Structured Facility Advances hereunder and the Structured

Amended:  7/24/2003

<PAGE>

Facility Commitment. Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with
Lender in connection with Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan
Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall in any
manner or to any extent affect the right of Lender to assign its Structured
Facility Note and its right to receive and retain payments on its Structured
Facility Note provided Lender remains primarily and directly liable pursuant to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement to keep, observe and perform all of
its obligations under this Agreement. Lender may furnish any information
concerning Borrower in its possession from time to time to Affiliates and to
assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants)
and Borrower hereby consents to the provision of such information. Without
limitation of the exclusive right of Lender to collect and enforce such
Obligations, Borrower agrees that each disposition will give rise to a
debtor-creditor relationship of Borrower to the assignee or participant, and
Borrower authorizes each assignee or participant, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, to proceed directly by right of setoff, banker's lien, or
otherwise, against any assets of Borrower which may be in the hands of such
assignee or participant.

11.6.    AMENDMENTS

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement may not be
amended, modified or supplemented unless the amendment, modification or
supplement is set forth in writing signed by both Borrower and Lender.

11.7.    GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are governed by the laws of the
State of Minnesota, without reference to its principles of conflicts of laws.

11.8.    CONFIDENTIALITY

Lender shall use reasonable efforts to assure that information about Borrower
and its operations, affairs and financial condition, not generally disclosed to
the public or to trade and other creditors, which is furnished to Lender
pursuant to the provisions hereof is used only for the purposes of this
Agreement and any other relationship between the Lender and Borrower and not
divulged to any Person other than the Lender, its Affiliates and their
respective officers, directors, employees and agents, except: (a) to their
attorneys and accountants, (b) in connection with the enforcement of the rights
of Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in
connection with applicable litigation, (c) in connection with assignments and
participations and the solicitation of prospective assignees and participants
referred to in Section 11.5 (provided such assignees, participants and
prospecting assignees and participants agree to be bound by this Section 11.8)
and (d) as may otherwise be required or requested by any regulatory authority
having jurisdiction over Lender or by any applicable law, rule, regulation or
judicial process, the opinion of Lender's counsel concerning the making of such
disclosure to be binding on the parties hereto.

11.9.    RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES

This Agreement provides for the making and repayment of Structured Facility
Advances by Lender (in its capacity as a lender) and Borrower (in its capacity
as a borrower), for the payment of interest on those Structured Facility
Advances and for the payment of certain fees by Borrower to Lender. The
relationship between Lender and Borrower is limited to that of creditor and
secured party on the part of Lender and of debtor on the part of Borrower. The
provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for compliance with
financial covenants and the delivery of financial statements and other operating
reports are intended solely for the benefit of Lender to protect its interest as
a creditor and secured party. Nothing in this Agreement creates

<PAGE>

or may be construed as permitting or obligating Lender to act as a financial or
business advisor or consultant to Borrower, as permitting or obligating Lender
to control Borrower or to conduct Borrower's operations, as creating any
fiduciary obligation on the part of Lender to Borrower, or as creating any joint
venture, agency, partnership or other relationship between Lender and Borrower
other than as explicitly and specifically stated in the Loan Documents. Borrower
acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to obtain the advice of experienced
counsel of its own choice in connection with the negotiation and execution of
the Loan Documents and to obtain the advice of that counsel with respect to all
matters contained in the Loan Documents, including the waivers of jury trial and
of punitive, consequential, special or indirect damages contained in Sections
11.17 and 11.18, respectively. Borrower further acknowledges that it is
experienced with respect to financial and credit matters and has made its own
independent decisions to apply to Lender for credit and to execute and deliver
this Agreement.

11.10.   SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Agreement is declared to be illegal or unenforceable in
any respect, that provision is null and void and of no force and effect to the
extent of the illegality or unenforceability, and does not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of the Agreement.

11.11.   OPERATIONAL REVIEWS

From time to time upon request, Borrower will permit Lender or its
representative access to its premises and records for the purpose of conducting
a review of Borrower's general mortgage business methods, policies, and
procedures, auditing loan files and reviewing financial operational aspects of
Borrower's business.

11.12.   CONSENT TO CREDIT REFERENCES

Borrower consents to the disclosure of information regarding Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and their relationships with Lender to Persons making credit
inquiries to Lender. This consent is revocable by Borrower at any time upon
Notice to Lender as provided in Section 11.1.

11.13.   COUNTERPARTS

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will
be deemed an original, but all of which together constitute but one and the same
instrument.

11.14.   HEADINGS/CAPTIONS

The captions or headings in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are for
convenience only and in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of
any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

11.15.   ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Agreement, the Structured Facility Note and the other Loan Documents
represent the final agreement among the parties with respect to their subject
matter, and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior or contemporaneous oral
agreements among the parties. There are no oral agreements among the parties
with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, the Structured Facility
Note and the other Loan Documents.

11.16.   CONSENT TO JURISDICTION

AT THE OPTION OF LENDER, THIS AGREEMENT, THE STRUCTURED FACILITY NOTE AND THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY BE ENFORCED IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT WITHIN THE
STATE OF MINNESOTA. BORROWER CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF THOSE
COURTS, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO THE JURISDICTION OR VENUE OF THOSE COURTS,
INCLUDING THE OBJECTION THAT VENUE IN THOSE COURTS IS NOT CONVENIENT. ANY SUCH
SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE COMMENCED AND INSTITUTED BY SERVICE OF PROCESS
UPON BORROWER BY FIRST CLASS REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT
REQUESTED, ADDRESSED TO BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS LAST KNOWN TO LENDER. BORROWER'S
CONSENT AND AGREEMENT UNDER THIS SECTION DOES NOT AFFECT LENDER'S RIGHT TO
ACCOMPLISH SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO
