                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

     The Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed to
the Trustee in return for the Certificates. The Trust Fund (excluding the
Credit Comeback Excess Account, the Carryover Reserve Fund, the assets held in
the Pre-Funding Account and the Trust Fund's rights with respect to payments
received under the Corridor Contracts) for federal income tax purposes will
consist of four REMICs ("REMIC 1," "REMIC 2," "REMIC 3" and the "Master
REMIC"). Each Certificate, other than the Class A-R Certificate, will
represent ownership of one or more regular interests in the Master REMIC for
purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class A-R Certificate represents
ownership of the sole class of residual interest in REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC 3
and the Master REMIC. The Master REMIC will hold as assets the several classes
of uncertificated REMIC 3 Interests (other than the R-3-R Interest). Each
REMIC 3 Interest (other than the R-3-R Interest) is hereby designated as a
regular interest in REMIC 3. REMIC 3 will hold as assets the several classes
of REMIC 2 Interests (other than the R-2-R Interest). Each REMIC 2 Interest
(other than the R-2-R Interest) is hereby designated as a regular interest in
REMIC 2. REMIC 2 will hold as assets the several classes of REMIC 1 Interests
(other than the R-1-R Interest). Each REMIC 1 Interest (other than the R-1-R
Interest) is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 1. REMIC 1 will
hold as assets all property of the Trust Fund (excluding the Credit Comeback
Excess Account, the Carryover Reserve Fund, the assets held in the Pre-Funding
Account and the Trust Fund's rights with respect to payments received under
the Corridor Contracts). The latest possible maturity date of all REMIC
regular interests created in this Agreement shall be the Latest Possible
Maturity Date.

     None of the REMICs described herein shall hold any interest in the Swap
Trust, Swap Contract or Swap Account.

_______________

(1)      Each REMIC 2 Interest having an "R-2-A-" designation (each, an "R-2-A
         Interest") will have a principal balance initially equal to 0.9% of
         the Subordinate Component Balance ("SCB") of its Corresponding Loan
         Group. Each REMIC 2 Interest having an "R-2-B-" designation (each, an
         "R-2-B Interest") will have a principal balance initially equal to
         0.1% of the SCB of its Corresponding Loan Group. The initial
         principal balance of each REMIC 2 Interest having an "R-2-C-"
         designation (each, an "R-2-C Interest") will equal the excess of the
         initial principal balance of its Corresponding Loan Group over the
         initial aggregate principal balances of the R-2-A and R-2-B Interests
         corresponding to such Loan Group.

(2)      A rate equal to the weighted average of the pass-through rates of the
         R-1-1-I and R-1-1-S Interests (the "Loan Group 1 Net Rate Cap").



                                      3
<PAGE>

(3)      A rate equal to the weighted average of the pass-through rates of the
         R-1-2-I and R-1-2-S Interests (the "Loan Group 2 Net Rate Cap").

(4)      The R-2-P Interest is entitled to all amounts payable with respect to
         the R-1-P Interest. It pays no interest.

(5)      The R-2-R Interest is the sole class of residual interest in REMIC 2.
         It has no principal balance and pays no principal or interest.

(6)      This REMIC 2 Interest pays no principal.

(7)      This REMIC 2 Interest is entitled to all amounts payable with respect
         to the R-1-X Interest.

            On each Distribution Date, the Interest Funds and the Principal
Distribution Amounts payable with respect to the REMIC 1 Interests shall be
payable with respect to the REMIC 2 Interests in the following manner:

         (1) Interest. Interest is to be distributed with respect to each
REMIC 2 Interest at the rate, or according to the formulas, described above.

         (2) Principal if no Cross-Over Situation Exists. If no Cross-Over
Situation exists with respect to any REMIC 2 Interest, then the Principal
Distribution Amounts payable with respect to each Loan Group will be payable:
first to cause the Loan Group's corresponding R-2-A and R-2-B Interests to
equal, respectively, 0.9% of the SCB and 0.1% of the SCB, and then to the
corresponding R-2-C Interest.

         (3) Principal if a Cross-Over Situation Exists. If a Cross-Over
Situation exists with respect to the R-2-A and R-2-B Interests then:

         (a) if the Calculation Rate in respect of the outstanding R-2-A and
R-2-B Interests is less than the Subordinate Tax Net Rate Cap, Principal
Relocation Payments will be made proportionately to the outstanding R-2-A
Interests prior to any other principal distributions from each such Loan
Group; and

         (b) if the Calculation Rate in respect of the outstanding R-2-A and
R-2-B Interests is greater than the Subordinate Tax Net Rate Cap, Principal
Relocation Payments will be made proportionately to the outstanding R-2-B
Interests prior to any other principal distributions from each such Loan
Group.

         In each case, Principal Relocation Payments will be made so as to
cause the Calculation Rate in respect of the outstanding R-2-A and R-2-B
Interests to equal the Subordinate Tax Net Rate Cap. With respect to each Loan
Group, if (and to the extent that) the sum of (a) the principal payments
comprising the Principal Distribution Amount payable for the related
Distribution Date and (b) the Realized Losses, are insufficient to make the
necessary reductions of principal on the R-2-A and R-2-B Interests, then
interest will be added to the Loan Group's R-2-C Interest.



                                      4
<PAGE>

         (c) Unless required to achieve the Calculation Rate, the outstanding
aggregate outstanding aggregate SW-A and SW-B Interests for both Loan Groups
will not be reduced below 1 percent of the excess of (i) the aggregate
outstanding principal balances of both Loan Groups as of the end of any Due
Period (reduced by Principal Prepayments received after the Due Period that
are to be distributed on the Distribution Date related to the Due Period) over
(ii) the Senior Certificates related to both Loan Groups as of the related
Distribution Date (after taking into account distributions of principal on
such Distribution Date).

         If (and to the extent that) the limitation in paragraph (c) prevents
the distribution of principal to the R-2-A and R-2-B Interests of a Loan
Group, and if the Loan Group's corresponding R-2-E Interest has already been
reduced to zero, then the excess principal from that Loan Group will be paid
to the R-2-E Interest of the other Loan Group, the aggregate R-2-A and R-2-B
Interests of which are less than one percent of the Subordinate Component
Balance. If the Loan Group of the corresponding R-2-E Interest that receives
such payment has a Group Net Rate Cap below the Group Net Rate Cap of the Loan
Group making the payment, then the payment will be treated by REMIC 2 as a
Realized Loss. Conversely, if the Loan Group of the R-2-E Interest that
receives such payment has a Group Net Rate Cap above the Group Net Rate Cap of
the Loan Group making the payment, then the payment will be treated by REMIC 2
as a reimbursement for prior Realized Losses.

         REMIC 3:

The REMIC 3 Regular Interests will have the principal balances, pass-through
rates and Corresponding Classes of Certificates as set forth in the following

(1)      The Certificates will accrue interest at the related Pass-Through
         Rates identified in this Agreement. For federal income tax purposes,
         including the computation of the Class C Distributable Amount, the
         pass-through rate in respect of (i) the Class 1-A Certificates will
         be subject to a cap equal to the Class 1-A Tax Net Rate Cap, (ii) the
         Class 2-A Certificates will be subject to a cap equal to the Class
         2-A Tax Net Rate Cap, and (iii) the Subordinate Certificates will be
         subject to a cap equal to the Subordinate Tax Net Rate Cap.
(2)      For federal income tax purposes, the Class C Certificates will be
         treated as having a Certificate Principal Balance equal to the
         Overcollateralized Amount.
(3)      For each Interest Accrual Period the Class C Certificates are
         entitled to an amount (the "Class C Distributable Amount") equal to
         the sum of (a) the interest payable on the R-3-X Interest, (b) the
         interest payable on the R-3-C Interest and (c) a specified portion of
         the interest on the REMIC 3 Regular Interests (other than the
         R-3-$100, R-3-C, R-3-P and R-3-X Interests) equal to the excess of
         the Pool Net Rate Cap over the weighted average interest rate of the
         REMIC 3 Regular Interests (other than the R-3-$100, R-3-C, R-3-P and
         R-3-X Interests) with each such Class subject to a cap and a floor
         equal to the Pass-Through Rate of the Corresponding Master REMIC
         Class. The Pass-Through Rate of the Class C Certificates shall be a
         rate sufficient to entitle it to an amount equal to all interest
         accrued on the REMIC 1 Group 1 and Group 2 "I" and "S" Interests less
         the interest accrued on the other interests issued by the Master
         REMIC. The Class C Distributable Amount for any Distribution Date is
         payable from current interest on the Mortgage Loans and any related
         OC Release Amount for that Distribution Date.
(4)      For each Distribution Date the Class P Certificates are entitled to
         all Prepayment Charges distributed with respect to the R-3-P
         Interest.
(5)      The Class A-R Certificates represent the sole class of residual
         interest in each REMIC created hereunder. The Class A-R Certificates
         are not entitled to distributions of interest.

         The foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash
from the Mortgage Loans to flow through to the Master REMIC as cash flow on
REMIC regular interests, without creating any shortfall--actual or potential
(other than for credit losses)-- to any REMIC regular interest. It is not
intended that the Class A-R be entitled to any cash flows pursuant to this
Agreement except as provided in Section 3.08(a) hereunder.

interest of such Seller in and to the applicable Initial Mortgage Loans,
including all interest and principal received and receivable by such Seller on

obligations in respect of such transaction to be assumed by, the Swap Contract
Administrator, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Swap Contract
Assignment Agreement.

         (b) Subject to the execution and delivery of the related Subsequent
Transfer Agreement as provided by Section 2.01(d) and the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, each Seller sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and
otherwise conveys to the Depositor, without recourse, on each Subsequent
Transfer Date, all the right, title and interest of such Seller in and to the
related Subsequent Mortgage Loans, including all interest and principal
received and receivable by such Seller on or with respect to such Subsequent
Mortgage Loans after the related Subsequent Cut-off Date (to the extent not
applied in computing the Cut-off Date Principal Balance thereof) or deposited

as part of any related Subsequent Certificate Account Deposit as provided in
this Agreement, other than principal due on such Subsequent Mortgage Loans on
or prior to the related Subsequent Cut-off Date and interest accruing prior to

         Immediately upon the conveyance of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans
referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Depositor sells, transfers,
assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Trustee for benefit of the
Certificateholders, without recourse, all right title and interest in the
Subsequent Mortgage Loans.

         (c) Each Seller has entered into this Agreement in consideration for
the purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor and has agreed to take the
actions specified herein. The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise

without recourse, all right title and interest in the portion of the Trust
Fund not otherwise conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01(a) or (b).

         (d) On any Business Day during the Funding Period designated by CHL

execute and deliver a Subsequent Transfer Agreement. After the execution and
delivery of such Subsequent Transfer Agreement, on the Subsequent Transfer
Date, the Trustee shall set aside in the Pre-Funding Account an amount equal
to the related Subsequent Transfer Date Purchase Amount.

         (e) The transfer of Subsequent Mortgage Loans on the Subsequent
Transfer Date is subject to the satisfaction of each of the following
conditions:

                  (1) the Trustee and the Underwriters will be provided
         Opinions of Counsel addressed to the Rating Agencies as with respect
         to the sale of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans conveyed on such
         Subsequent Transfer Date (such opinions being substantially similar
         to the opinions delivered on the Closing Date to the Rating Agencies
         with respect to the sale of the Initial Mortgage Loans on the Closing
         Date), to be delivered as provided in Section 2.01(f);



                                      52
<PAGE>

                  (2) the execution and delivery of such Subsequent Transfer
         Agreement or conveyance of the related Subsequent Mortgage Loans does
         not result in a reduction or withdrawal of any ratings assigned to
         the Certificates by the Rating Agencies;

                  (3) the Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer's
         Certificate confirming the satisfaction of each of the conditions set
         forth in this Section 2.01(e) required to be satisfied by such
         Subsequent Transfer Date;

                  (4) each Subsequent Mortgage Loan conveyed on such
         Subsequent Transfer Date satisfies the representations and warranties
         applicable to it under this Agreement, provided, however, that with
         respect to a breach of a representation and warranty with respect to
         a Subsequent Mortgage Loan set forth in this clause (4), the
         obligation under Section 2.03(e) of this Agreement of the applicable
         Seller, to cure, repurchase or replace such Subsequent Mortgage Loan
         shall constitute the sole remedy against such Seller respecting such
         breach available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee;

                  (5) the Subsequent Mortgage Loans conveyed on such
         Subsequent Transfer Date were selected in a manner reasonably
         believed not to be adverse to the interests of the
         Certificateholders;

                  (6) no Subsequent Mortgage Loan conveyed on such Subsequent
         Transfer Date was 30 or more days delinquent;

                  (7) following the conveyance of the Subsequent Mortgage
         Loans on such Subsequent Transfer Date, the characteristics of each
         Loan Group will not vary by more than the amount specified below
         (other than the percentage of Mortgage Loans secured by Mortgaged
         Properties located in the State of California, which will not exceed
         50% of the Mortgage Pool and the percentage of mortgage loans in the
         Credit Grade Categories of "C" or below, which will not exceed 10% of
         the Mortgage Loans in each Loan Group) from the characteristics
         listed below; provided that for the purpose of making such
         calculations, the characteristics for any Initial Mortgage Loan made
         will be taken as of the Initial Cut-off Date and the characteristics
         for any Subsequent Mortgage Loans will be taken as of the Subsequent
         Cut-off Date;

                  (8)none of the Sellers or the Depositor is insolvent and
         neither of the Sellers nor the Depositor will be rendered insolvent
         by the conveyance of Subsequent Mortgage Loans on such Subsequent
         Transfer Date; and

                  (9) the Trustee and the Underwriters will be provided with
         an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the
         expense of either the Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the
         Trustee, to the effect that such purchase of Subsequent Mortgage
         Loans will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on "prohibited
         transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after the Startup
         Date, as defined in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code,
         respectively or (ii) cause any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to
         qualify as a REMIC, such opinion to be delivered as provided in
         Section 2.01(f).

         The Trustee shall not be required to investigate or otherwise verify
compliance with these conditions, except for its own receipt of documents
specified above, and shall be entitled to rely on the required Officer's
Certificate.

         (f) Within six Business Days after each Subsequent Transfer Date,

Master Servicer on behalf of the Sellers of the applicable Subsequent
Certificate Account Deposit, and (4) delivery to the Trustee by the Depositor
of an Officer's Certificate confirming the satisfaction of each of the
conditions precedent set forth in this Section 2.01(f), the Trustee shall pay
the applicable Seller the Subsequent Transfer Date Transfer Amount from such
funds that were set aside in the Pre-Funding Account pursuant to Section
2.01(d). The positive difference, if any, between the Subsequent Transfer Date
Transfer Amount and the Subsequent Transfer Date Purchase Amount shall be
re-invested by the Trustee in the Pre-Funding Account.

         The Trustee shall not be required to investigate or otherwise verify
compliance with the conditions set forth in the preceding paragraph, except
for its own receipt of documents specified above, and shall be entitled to
rely on the required Officer's Certificate.

         Within thirty days after each Subsequent Transfer Date, the Depositor

independent public accountants stating whether or not the Subsequent Mortgage
Loans conveyed on such Subsequent Transfer Date conform to the characteristics

         (g) In connection with the transfer and assignment of each Mortgage
Loan, the Depositor has delivered to, and deposited with, the Co-Trustee (or,
in the case of the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans, will deliver to, and deposit
with, the Co-Trustee within the time periods specified in the definition of
Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans) (except as provided in clause (vi) below) for
the benefit of the Certificateholders, the following documents or instruments
with respect to each such Mortgage Loan so assigned (with respect to each
Mortgage Loan, clause (i) through (vi) below, together, the "Mortgage File"
for each such Mortgage Loan):

                  (i) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or
         facsimile signature in blank in the following form: "Pay to the order
         of ________________ without recourse", with all intervening
         endorsements that show a complete chain of endorsement from the
         originator to the Person endorsing the Mortgage Note (each such
         endorsement being sufficient to transfer all right, title and
         interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
         thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note), or, if the original Mortgage
         Note has been lost or destroyed and not replaced, an original lost
         note affidavit, stating that the original Mortgage Note was lost or
         destroyed, together with a copy of the related Mortgage Note and all
         such intervening endorsements;

                  (ii) in the case of each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS
         Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of such
         Mortgage, with recording information, and in the case of each MERS
         Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage or a copy of such Mortgage, with
         recording information, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage
         Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if
         the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, with evidence of recording indicated
         thereon, or a copy of the Mortgage certified by the public recording
         office in which such Mortgage has been recorded;

                  (iii) in the case of each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS
         Mortgage Loan, a duly executed assignment of the Mortgage to
         "Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2005-AB5, CWABS, Inc., by The Bank
         of New York, a New York banking corporation, as trustee under the
         Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of December 1, 2005, without
         recourse" or a copy of such assignment, with recording information,
         (each such assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in
         recordable form and sufficient to effect the assignment of and
         transfer to the assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to which such
         assignment relates);

                  (iv) the original recorded assignment or assignments of the
         Mortgage or a copy of such assignments, with recording information,
         together with all interim recorded assignments of such Mortgage or a
         copy of such assignments, with recording information (in each case
         noting the presence of a MIN in the case of each MERS Mortgage Loan);

                  (v) the original or copies of each assumption, modification,
         written assurance or substitution agreement, if any; and



                                      55
<PAGE>

                  (vi) the original or duplicate original lender's title
         policy or a copy of lender's title policy or a printout of the
         electronic equivalent and all riders thereto or, in the event such
         original title policy has not been received from the insurer, such
         original or duplicate original lender's title policy and all riders
         thereto shall be delivered within one year of the Closing Date.

         In addition, in connection with the assignment of any MERS Mortgage
Loan, each Seller agrees that it will cause, at such Seller's own expense, the
MERS(R) System to indicate (and provide evidence to the Trustee that it has
done so) that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by such Seller to the
Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of the
Certificateholders by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans
which are repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer
files (a) the code "[IDENTIFY TRUSTEE SPECIFIC CODE]" in the field "[IDENTIFY
THE FIELD NAME FOR TRUSTEE]" which identifies the Trustee and (b) the code
"[IDENTIFY SERIES SPECIFIC CODE NUMBER]" in the field "Pool Field" which
identifies the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such
Mortgage Loans. The Sellers further agree that they will not, and will not
permit the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it will
not, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage
Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is
repurchased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

         In the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan that is not a
MERS Mortgage Loan a Seller cannot deliver the original recorded Mortgage or
all interim recorded assignments of the Mortgage satisfying the requirements
of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) concurrently with the execution and delivery
hereof, such Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Co-Trustee a
true copy of such Mortgage and of each such undelivered interim assignment of
the Mortgage each certified by such Seller, the applicable title company,
escrow agent or attorney, or the originator of such Mortgage, as the case may
be, to be a true and complete copy of the original Mortgage or assignment of
Mortgage submitted for recording. For any such Mortgage Loan that is not a
MERS Mortgage Loan each Seller shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Co-Trustee such original Mortgage and such assignment or assignments
with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon receipt thereof from the
public recording official, or a copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by
the relevant recording office, but in no event shall any such delivery be made
later than 270 days following the Closing Date; provided that in the event
that by such date such Seller is unable to deliver or cause to be delivered
each such Mortgage and each interim assignment by reason of the fact that any
such documents have not been returned by the appropriate recording office, or,
in the case of each interim assignment, because the related Mortgage has not
been returned by the appropriate recording office, such Seller shall deliver
or cause to be delivered such documents to the Co-Trustee as promptly as
possible upon receipt thereof. If the public recording office in which a
Mortgage or interim assignment thereof is recorded retains the original of
such Mortgage or assignment, a copy of the original Mortgage or assignment so
retained, with evidence of recording thereon, certified to be true and
complete by such recording office, shall satisfy a Seller's obligations in
Section 2.01. If any document submitted for recording pursuant to this
Agreement is (x) lost prior to recording or rejected by the applicable
recording office, the applicable Seller shall immediately prepare or cause to
be prepared a substitute and submit it for recording, and shall deliver copies
and originals thereof in accordance with the foregoing or (y) lost after
recording, the applicable

                                      56
<PAGE>

Seller shall deliver to the Co-Trustee a copy of such document certified by
the applicable public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the
original recorded document. Each Seller shall promptly forward or cause to be
forwarded to the Co-Trustee (x) from time to time additional original
documents evidencing an assumption or modification of a Mortgage Loan and (y)
any other documents required to be delivered by the Depositor or the Master
Servicer to the Co-Trustee within the time periods specified in this Section
2.01.

         With respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a MERS Mortgage Loan as
to which the related Mortgaged Property and Mortgage File are located in (a)
the State of California or (b) any other jurisdiction under the laws of which
the recordation of the assignment specified in clause (iii) above is not
necessary to protect the Trustee's and the Certificateholders' interest in the
related Mortgage Loan, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered by CHL
to the Trustee and a copy to the Rating Agencies, in lieu of recording the
assignment specified in clause (iii) above, the applicable Seller may deliver
an unrecorded assignment in blank, in form otherwise suitable for recording to
the Co-Trustee; provided that if the related Mortgage has not been returned
from the applicable public recording office, such assignment, or any copy
thereof, of the Mortgage may exclude the information to be provided by the
recording office. As to any Mortgage Loan other than a MERS Mortgage Loan, the
procedures of the preceding sentence shall be applicable only so long as the
related Mortgage File is maintained in the possession of the Co-Trustee in the
State or jurisdiction described in such sentence. In the event that with
respect to Mortgage Loans other than MERS Mortgage Loans (I) any Seller, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer or the NIM Insurer gives written notice to the
Trustee that recording is required to protect the right, title and interest of
the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders in and to any Mortgage Loan,
(II) a court recharacterizes any sale of the Mortgage Loans as a financing, or
(III) as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws of the State or
jurisdiction described in the first sentence of this paragraph or any
applicable political subdivision thereof, or any change in official position
regarding application or interpretation of such laws, including a holding by a
court of competent jurisdiction, such recording is so required, the Co-Trustee
shall complete the assignment in the manner specified in clause (iii) above
and CHL shall submit or cause to be submitted for recording as specified above
or, should CHL fail to perform such obligations, the Trustee shall cause the
Master Servicer, at the Master Servicer's expense, to cause each such
previously unrecorded assignment to be submitted for recording as specified
above. In the event a Mortgage File is released to the Master Servicer as a
result of the Master Servicer's having completed a Request for Document
Release, the Trustee shall complete the assignment of the related Mortgage in
the manner specified in clause (iii) above.

         So long as the Co-Trustee or its agent maintains an office in the
State of California, the Co-Trustee or its agent shall maintain possession of
and not remove or attempt to remove from the State of California any of the
Mortgage Files as to which the related Mortgaged Property is located in such
State. In the event that a Seller fails to record an assignment of a Mortgage
Loan as herein provided within 90 days of notice of an event set forth in
clause (I), (II) or (III) of the preceding paragraph, the Master Servicer
shall prepare and, if required hereunder, file such assignments for
recordation in the appropriate real property or other records office. Each
Seller hereby appoints the Master Servicer (and any successor servicer
hereunder) as its attorney-in-fact with full power and authority acting in its
stead for the purpose of such preparation, execution and filing.

         In the case of Mortgage Loans that become the subject of a Principal
Prepayment between the Closing Date (in the case of Initial Mortgage Loans) or
related Subsequent Transfer Date (in the case of Subsequent Mortgage Loans)
and the Cut-off Date, CHL shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the
Certificate Account the amount required to be deposited therein with respect
to such payment pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within
thirty days after the Closing Date (in the case of Initial Mortgage Loans) or
within twenty days after the related Subsequent Transfer Date (in the case of
Subsequent Mortgage Loans), CHL (on behalf of each Seller) shall either (i)
deliver to the Co-Trustee the Mortgage File as required pursuant to this
Section 2.01 for each Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or (ii) (A) repurchase the
Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B) substitute the Delay Delivery Mortgage
Loan for a Replacement Mortgage Loan, which repurchase or substitution shall
be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 2.03, provided that if CHL fails to deliver a Mortgage File for any
Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan within the period provided in the prior sentence,
the cure period provided for in Section 2.02 or in Section 2.03 shall not
apply to the initial delivery of the Mortgage File for such Delay Delivery
Mortgage Loan, but rather CHL shall have five (5) Business Days to cure such
failure to deliver. CHL shall promptly provide each Rating Agency with written
notice of any cure, repurchase or substitution made pursuant to the proviso of
the preceding sentence. On or before the thirtieth (30th) day (or if such
thirtieth day is not a Business Day, the succeeding Business Day) after the
Closing Date (in the case of Initial Mortgage Loans) or within twenty days
after the related Subsequent Transfer Date (in the case of Subsequent Mortgage
Loans), the Trustee shall, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02,
send a Delay Delivery Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto
as Exhibit G-3 (with any applicable exceptions noted thereon) for all Delay
Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered within thirty (30) days after such date. The
Trustee will promptly send a copy of such Delay Delivery Certification to each
Rating Agency.

         Section 2.02 Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.

         (a) The Co-Trustee acknowledges receipt, subject to the limitations
contained in and any exceptions noted in the Initial Certification in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit G-1 and in the list of exceptions attached thereto,
of the documents referred to in clauses (i) and (iii) of Section 2.01(g) above
with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans and all other assets included in
the Trust Fund and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the
other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it
holds or will hold such other assets included in the Trust Fund, in trust for
the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.

         The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) an Initial
Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-1 to the
effect that, as to each Initial Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule (other than any Initial Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Initial
Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such certification as not covered by
such certification), the documents described in Section 2.01(g)(i) and, in the
case of each Initial Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the
documents described in Section 2.01(g)(iii) with respect to such Initial
Mortgage Loans as are in the Co-Trustee's possession and based on its review
and

examination and only as to the foregoing documents, such documents appear
regular on their face and relate to such Initial Mortgage Loan. The Trustee
agrees to execute and deliver within 30 days after the Closing Date to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) an Interim
Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-2 to the
effect that, as to each Initial Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule (other than any Initial Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Initial
Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such certification as not covered by
such certification) all documents required to be delivered to the Co-Trustee
pursuant to the Agreement with respect to such Initial Mortgage Loans are in
its possession (except those documents described in Section 2.01(g)(vi)) and
based on its review and examination and only as to the foregoing documents,
(i) such documents appear regular on their face and relate to such Initial
Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the information set forth in items (i), (iv), (v),
(vi), (viii), (ix) and (xv) of the definition of the "Mortgage Loan Schedule"
accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. On or before
the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date (or if such thirtieth day is
not a Business Day, the succeeding Business Day), the Trustee shall deliver to
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) a Delay
Delivery Certification with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans
substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-3, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon. The Co-Trustee or the Trustee, as applicable, shall
be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine such documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are
genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other
than what they purport to be on their face.

         Not later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall
deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each
Seller), and to any Certificateholder that so requests, a Final Certification
with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans substantially in the form annexed
hereto as Exhibit H, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.

         In connection with the Trustee's completion and delivery of such
Final Certification, the Co-Trustee, at the Trustee's direction, shall review
each Mortgage File with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans to determine
that such Mortgage File contains the following documents:

                  (i) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or
         facsimile signature in blank in the following form: "Pay to the order
         of ________________ without recourse", with all intervening
         endorsements that show a complete chain of endorsement from the
         originator to the Person endorsing the Mortgage Note (each such
         endorsement being sufficient to transfer all right, title and
         interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
         thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note), or, if the original Mortgage
         Note has been lost or destroyed and not replaced, an original lost
         note affidavit, stating that the original Mortgage Note was lost or
         destroyed, together with a copy of the related Mortgage Note and all
         such intervening endorsements;

                  (ii) in the case of each Initial Mortgage Loan that is not a
         MERS Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of such
         Mortgage, with recording information, and in the case of each Initial
         Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage or
         a copy of such Mortgage, with

                                      59
<PAGE>

         recording information, noting the presence of the MIN of the Initial
         Mortgage Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM
         Loan if the Initial Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, with evidence of
         recording indicated thereon, or a copy of the Mortgage certified by
         the public recording office in which Mortgage has been recorded;

                  (iii) in the case of each Initial Mortgage Loan that is not
         a MERS Mortgage Loan, a duly executed assignment of the Mortgage or a
         copy thereof with recording information, in either case in the form
         permitted by Section 2.01;

                  (iv) the original recorded assignment or assignments of the
         Mortgage or a copy of such assignments, with recording information,
         together with all interim recorded assignments of such Mortgage or a
         copy of such assignments, with recording information (in each case
         noting the presence of a MIN in the case of each MERS Mortgage Loan);

                  (v) the original or copies of each assumption, modification,
         written assurance or substitution agreement, if any; and

                  (vi) the original or duplicate original lender's title
         policy or a copy of lender's title policy or a printout of the
         electronic equivalent and all riders thereto.

         If, in the course of such review, the Co-Trustee finds any document
or documents constituting a part of such Mortgage File that do not meet the
requirements of clauses (i)-(iv) and (vi) above, the Trustee shall include
such exceptions in such Final Certification (and the Trustee shall state in
such Final Certification whether any Mortgage File does not then include the
original or duplicate original lender's title policy or a printout of the
electronic equivalent and all riders thereto). If the public recording office
in which a Mortgage or assignment thereof is recorded retains the original of
such Mortgage or assignment, a copy of the original Mortgage or assignment so
retained, with evidence of recording thereon, certified to be true and
complete by such recording office, shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements
of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, as applicable. CHL shall promptly correct
or cure such defect referred to above within 90 days from the date it was so
notified of such defect and, if CHL does not correct or cure such defect
within such period, CHL shall either (A) if the time to cure such defect
expires prior to the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date,
substitute for the related Initial Mortgage Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan,
which substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the
conditions set forth in Section 2.03, or (B) purchase such Initial Mortgage
Loan from the Trust Fund within 90 days from the date CHL was notified of such
defect in writing at the Purchase Price of such Initial Mortgage Loan;
provided that any such substitution pursuant to (A) above or repurchase
pursuant to (B) above shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the
Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05 hereof and any
substitution pursuant to (A) above shall not be effected prior to the
additional delivery to the Co-Trustee of a Request for File Release. No
substitution will be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date
for such month. The Purchase Price for any such Initial Mortgage Loan shall be
deposited by CHL in the Certificate Account and, upon receipt of such deposit
and Request for File Release with respect thereto, the Co-Trustee shall
release the related Mortgage File to CHL and shall execute and deliver at
CHL's request such instruments of transfer or

                                      60
<PAGE>

assignment as CHL has prepared, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to vest in CHL, or a designee, the Trustee's interest in any Initial
Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. If pursuant to the foregoing
provisions CHL repurchases an Initial Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an
assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from
MERS to CHL and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on
the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and regulations.

         The Co-Trustee shall retain possession and custody of each Mortgage
File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein. Each Seller shall promptly deliver to the Co-Trustee, upon the
execution or receipt thereof, the originals of such other documents or
instruments constituting the Mortgage File that come into the possession of
such Seller from time to time.

         It is understood and agreed that the obligation of CHL to substitute
for or to purchase any Mortgage Loan that does not meet the requirements of
Section 2.02(a) above shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect
available to the Trustee, the Co-Trustee, the Depositor and any
Certificateholder against any Seller.

         It is understood and agreed that the obligation of CHL to substitute
for or to purchase, pursuant to Section 2.02(a), any Initial Mortgage Loan
whose Mortgage File contains any document or documents that does not meet the
requirements of clauses (i)-(iv) and (vi) above and which defect is not
corrected or cured by CHL within 90 days from the date it was notified of such
defect, shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect available to
the Trustee, the Co-Trustee, the Depositor and any Certificateholder against
any Seller.

         (b) The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Subsequent
Transfer Date to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each
Seller) an Initial Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit G-4 to the effect that, as to each Subsequent Mortgage Loan listed in
the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Subsequent Mortgage Loan paid in
full or any Subsequent Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such
certification as not covered by such certification), the documents described
in Section 2.01(g)(i) and, in the case of each Subsequent Mortgage Loan that
is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the documents described in Section 2.01(g)(iii),
with respect to such Subsequent Mortgage Loan are in its possession, and based
on its review and examination and only as to the foregoing documents, such
documents appear regular on their face and relate to such Subsequent Mortgage
Loan.

         The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver within 30 days after the
Subsequent Transfer Date to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on
behalf of each Seller) an Interim Certification substantially in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit G-2 to the effect that, as to each Subsequent
Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Subsequent
Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Subsequent Mortgage Loan specifically
identified in such certification as not covered by such certification), all
documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement with
respect to such Subsequent Mortgage Loan are in its possession (except those
described in Section 2.01(g)(vi)) and based on its review and examination and
only as to the foregoing documents, (i) such documents appear regular on their

                                      61
<PAGE>

face and relate to such Subsequent Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the information set
forth in items (i), (iv), (v), (vi), (viii), (ix) and (xv) of the definition
of the "Mortgage Loan Schedule" accurately reflects information set forth in
the Mortgage File. On or before the thirtieth (30th) day after the Subsequent
Transfer Date (or if such thirtieth day is not a Business Day, the succeeding
Business Day), the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) a Delay Delivery Certification with respect
to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans substantially in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit G-3, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon, together with a
Subsequent Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
G-4. The Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or
examine such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine
that the same are genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented
purpose or that they have actually been recorded in the real estate records or
that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.

         Not later than 180 days after the Subsequent Transfer Date, the
Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, CHL (on behalf of
each Seller) and to any Certificateholder that so requests a Final
Certification with respect to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans substantially in
the form annexed hereto as Exhibit H, with any applicable exceptions noted
thereon.

         In connection with the Trustee's completion and delivery of such
Final Certification, the Co-Trustee shall review each Mortgage File with
respect to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans to determine that such Mortgage File
contains the following documents:

                  (i) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or

         of ________________ without recourse", with all intervening
         endorsements that show a complete chain of endorsement from the
         originator to the Person endorsing the Mortgage Note (each such
         endorsement being sufficient to transfer all right, title and
         interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
         thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note), or, if the original Mortgage
         Note has been lost or destroyed and not replaced, an original lost
         note affidavit, stating that the original Mortgage Note was lost or
         destroyed, together with a copy of the related Mortgage Note and all
         such intervening endorsements;

                  (ii) in the case of each Subsequent Mortgage Loan that is
         not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of
         such Mortgage, with recording information, and in the case of each
         Subsequent Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original
         Mortgage or a copy of such Mortgage, with recording information,
         noting the presence of the MIN of the Subsequent Mortgage Loan and

         or a copy thereof with recording information, in either case in the
         form permitted by Section 2.01;



                                      62
<PAGE>

                  (iv) the original recorded assignment or assignments of the
         Mortgage or a copy of such assignments, with recording information,
         together with all interim recorded assignments of such Mortgage or a
         copy of such assignments, with recording information (in each case
         noting the presence of a MIN in the case of each MERS Mortgage Loan);

                  (v) the original or copies of each assumption, modification,
         written assurance or substitution agreement, if any; and

         If, in the course of such review, the Co-Trustee finds any document

such exceptions in such Final Certification (and the Trustee shall state in

deposit and Request for File Release with respect thereto, the Trustee shall
release the related Mortgage File to CHL and shall execute and deliver at
CHL's request such instruments of transfer or assignment as CHL has prepared,

Mortgage Loan whose Mortgage File contains any document or documents that does
not meet the requirements of clauses (i)-(iv) and (vi) above and which defect

         charter or by-laws of CHL or (B) materially conflict with, result in
         a material breach, violation or acceleration of, or result in a
         material default under, the terms of any other material agreement or
         instrument to which CHL is a party or by which it may be bound, or

         or other material agreement or instrument, or in violation of any
         statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body,
         administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over
         it which breach or violation may materially impair CHL's ability to

                  (5) No litigation is pending or, to the best of CHL's
         knowledge, threatened, against CHL that would materially and
         adversely affect the execution, delivery or enforceability of this
         Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or the ability of CHL
         to sell the CHL Mortgage Loans or to perform any of its other
         obligations under this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement
         in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof.

                  (6) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any
         court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
         delivery and performance by CHL of, or compliance by CHL with, this
         Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or the consummation of
         the transactions contemplated hereby, or if any such consent,
         approval, authorization or order is required, CHL has obtained the
         same.

                  (7) The information set forth on Exhibit F-1 hereto with
         respect to each Initial Mortgage Loan is true and correct in all
         material respects as of the Closing Date.

                  (8) CHL will treat the transfer of the CHL Mortgage Loans to
         the Depositor as a sale of the CHL Mortgage Loans for all tax,
         accounting and regulatory purposes.

                  (9) None of the Mortgage Loans is delinquent in payment of
         principal and interest.

                  (10) No Mortgage Loan had a Loan-to-Value Ratio at
         origination in excess of 100.00%.

                  (11) Each Mortgage Loan is secured by a valid and
         enforceable first lien on the related Mortgaged Property subject only
         to (1) the lien of non-delinquent current real property taxes and
         assessments, (2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of
         way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of
         recording of such Mortgage, such exceptions appearing of record being
         acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally or specifically
         reflected in the appraisal made in connection with the origination of
         the related Mortgage Loan and (3) other matters to which like
         properties are commonly subject that do not materially interfere with
         the benefits of the security intended to be provided by such
         Mortgage.

                  (12) Immediately prior to the assignment of each CHL
         Mortgage Loan to the Depositor, CHL had good title to, and was the
         sole owner of, such CHL Mortgage Loan free and clear of any pledge,
         lien, encumbrance or security interest and had full right and
         authority, subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement
         with, any other party, to sell and assign the same pursuant to this
         Agreement.

                  (13) There is no delinquent tax or assessment lien against
         any Mortgaged Property.



                                      67

                  (14) There is no valid offset, claim, defense or
         counterclaim to any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, including the
         obligation of the Mortgagor to pay the unpaid principal of or
         interest on such Mortgage Note.

                  (15) There are no mechanics' liens or claims for work, labor
         or material affecting any Mortgaged Property that are or may be a
         lien prior to, or equal with, the lien of such Mortgage, except those
         that are insured against by the title insurance policy referred to in
         item (18) below.

                  (16) As of the Closing Date in the case of the Initial
         Mortgage Loans and as of the related Subsequent Transfer Date in the
         case of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans, to the best of CHL's
         knowledge, each Mortgaged Property is free of material damage and is
         in good repair.

                  (17) As of the Closing Date in the case of the Initial
         Mortgage Loans and as of the related Subsequent Transfer Date in the
         case of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans, neither CHL nor any prior
         holder of any Mortgage has modified the Mortgage in any material
         respect (except that a Mortgage Loan may have been modified by a
         written instrument that has been recorded or submitted for
         recordation, if necessary, to protect the interests of the
         Certificateholders and the original or a copy of which has been
         delivered to the Trustee); satisfied, cancelled or subordinated such
         Mortgage in whole or in part; released the related Mortgaged Property
         in whole or in part from the lien of such Mortgage; or executed any
         instrument of release, cancellation, modification (except as
         expressly permitted above) or satisfaction with respect thereto.

                  (18) A lender's policy of title insurance together with a
         condominium endorsement and extended coverage endorsement, if
         applicable, in an amount at least equal to the Cut-off Date Principal
         Balance of each such Mortgage Loan or a commitment (binder) to issue
         the same was effective on the date of the origination of each
         Mortgage Loan, each such policy is valid and remains in full force
         and effect, and each such policy was issued by a title insurer
         qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged
         Property is located and acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and
         is in a form acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which policy
         insures the Sellers and successor owners of indebtedness secured by
         the insured Mortgage, as to the first priority lien, of the Mortgage
         subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph (11) above; to the
         best of CHL's knowledge, no claims have been made under such mortgage
         title insurance policy and no prior holder of the related Mortgage,
         including any Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything that
         would impair the coverage of such mortgage title insurance policy.

                  (19) No Initial Mortgage Loan was the subject of a Principal
         Prepayment in full between the Initial Cut-off Date and the Closing
         Date. No Subsequent Mortgage Loan was the subject of a Principal
         Prepayment in full between the Subsequent Cut-off Date and the
         Subsequent Transfer Date.

                  (20) To the best of CHL's knowledge, all of the improvements
         that were included for the purpose of determining the Appraised Value
         of the Mortgaged

                                      68
<PAGE>

         Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction
         lines of such property, and no improvements on adjoining properties
         encroach upon the Mortgaged Property.

                  (21) To the best of CHL's knowledge, no improvement located
         on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any
         applicable zoning law or regulation. To the best of CHL's knowledge,
         all inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or
         issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged
         Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same,
         including but not limited to certificates of occupancy and fire
         underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the
         appropriate authorities, unless the lack thereof would not have a
         material adverse effect on the value of such Mortgaged Property, and
         the Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law.

                  (22) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine,
         and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker
         thereof, enforceable in accordance with its terms and under
         applicable law, except that (a) the enforceability thereof may be
         limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other
         similar laws relating to creditors' rights generally and (b) the
         remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of
         equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the
         discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be
         brought. To the best of CHL's knowledge, all parties to the Mortgage
         Note and the Mortgage had legal capacity to execute the Mortgage Note
         and the Mortgage and each Mortgage Note and Mortgage have been duly
         and properly executed by such parties.

                  (23) The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully
         disbursed, there is no requirement for future advances thereunder,
         and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or
         off-site improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow funds
         therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees and expenses
         incurred in making, or closing or recording the Mortgage Loan were
         paid.

                  (24) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable
         provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof
         adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the
         benefits of the security, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage
         designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise
         by judicial foreclosure.

                  (25) With respect to each Mortgage constituting a deed of
         trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as
         such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is
         named in such Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become
         payable by the Certificateholders to the trustee under the deed of
         trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after default by
         the Mortgagor.

                  (26) Each Mortgage Note and each Mortgage is acceptable in
         form to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

                  (27) There exist no deficiencies with respect to escrow
         deposits and payments, if such are required, for which customary
         arrangements for repayment thereof

                                      69
<PAGE>

         have not been made, and no escrow deposits or payments of other
         charges or payments due the Sellers have been capitalized under the
         Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note.

                  (28) The origination, underwriting, servicing and collection
         practices with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been in all
         respects legal, proper, prudent and customary in the mortgage lending
         and servicing business, as conducted by prudent lending institutions
         which service mortgage loans of the same type in the jurisdiction in
         which the Mortgaged Property is located.

                  (29) There is no pledged account or other security other
         than real estate securing the Mortgagor's obligations.

                  (30) No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, or
         other contingent interest feature.

                  (31) Each Mortgage Loan contains a customary "due on sale"
         clause.

                  (32) No less than approximately the percentage specified in
         the Collateral Schedule of the Initial Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1
         and Loan Group 2 are secured by single family detached dwellings. No
         more than approximately the percentage specified in the Collateral
         Schedule of the Initial Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1 and Loan Group
         2 are secured by two- to four-family dwellings. No more than
         approximately the percentage specified in the Collateral Schedule of
         the Initial Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 are
         secured by low-rise condominium units. No more than approximately the
         percentage specified in the Collateral Schedule of the Initial
         Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 are secured by
         high-rise condominium units. No more than approximately the
         percentage specified in the Collateral Schedule of the Initial
         Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 are secured by
         manufactured housing. No more than approximately the percentage
         specified in the Collateral Schedule of the Initial Mortgage Loans in
         Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 are secured by PUDs.

                  (33) Each Initial Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 and Loan
         Group 2 was originated on or after the date specified in the
         Collateral Schedule.

                  (34) Each Initial Mortgage Loan that is an Adjustable Rate
         Mortgage Loan, other than a Two-Year Hybrid Mortgage Loan, a
         Three-Year Hybrid Mortgage Loan or a Five-Year Hybrid Mortgage Loan,
         had an initial Adjustment Date no later than the applicable date
         specified on the Collateral Schedule; each Initial Mortgage Loan that
         is a Two-Year Hybrid Mortgage Loan had an initial Adjustment Date no
         later than the applicable date specified on the Collateral Schedule;

                  (35) Approximately the percentage specified in the
         Collateral Schedule of the Initial Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1 and
         Loan Group 2 provide for a Prepayment Charge.

                  (36) On the basis of representations made by the Mortgagors
         in their loan applications, no more than approximately the percentage
         specified in the Collateral Schedule of the Initial Mortgage Loans in
         Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2, respectively, are secured by investor
         properties, and no less than approximately the percentage specified
         in the Collateral Schedule of the Initial Mortgage Loans in Loan
         Group 1 and Loan Group 2 respectively, are secured by owner-occupied
         Mortgaged Properties that are primary residences.

                  (37) At the Cut-off Date, the improvements upon each
         Mortgaged Property are covered by a valid and existing hazard
         insurance policy with a generally acceptable carrier that provides
         for fire and extended coverage and coverage for such other hazards as
         are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in
         an amount that is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum
         insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or
         (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the
         Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that the proceeds of such policy
         shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee
         from becoming a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is a
         condominium unit, it is included under the coverage afforded by a
         blanket policy for the condominium unit. All such individual
         insurance policies and all flood policies referred to in item (38)
         below contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the applicable
         Seller or the original mortgagee, and its successors in interest, as
         mortgagee, and the applicable Seller has received no notice that any
         premiums due and payable thereon have not been paid; the Mortgage
         obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance,
         including flood insurance, at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and
         upon the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the
         Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor's
         cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the
         Mortgagor.

                  (38) If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in
         the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as
         having special flood hazards, a flood insurance policy in a form
         meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Flood
         Insurance Administration is in effect with respect to such Mortgaged
         Property with a generally acceptable carrier in an amount
         representing coverage not less than the least of (A) the original
         outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (B) the minimum
         amount required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement
         cost basis, or (C) the maximum amount of insurance that is available
         under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended.

                  (39) To the best of CHL's knowledge, there is no proceeding
         occurring, pending or threatened for the total or partial
         condemnation of the Mortgaged Property.

                  (40) There is no material monetary default existing under
         any Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and, to the best of CHL's
         knowledge, there is no material event that, with the passage of time
         or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure

                                      71
<PAGE>

         period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of
         acceleration under the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note; and no
         Seller has waived any default, breach, violation or event of
         acceleration.

                  (41) Each Mortgaged Property is improved by a one- to
         four-family residential dwelling, including condominium units and
         dwelling units in PUDs. To the best of CHL's knowledge, no
         improvement to a Mortgaged Property includes a cooperative or a
         mobile home or constitutes other than real property under state law.

                  (42) Each Mortgage Loan is being serviced by the Master
         Servicer.

                  (43) Any future advances made prior to the Cut-off Date have
         been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by
         the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated,
         bears a single interest rate and single repayment term reflected on
         the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The consolidated principal amount does
         not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. The
         Mortgage Note does not permit or obligate the Master Servicer to make
         future advances to the Mortgagor at the option of the Mortgagor.

                  (44) All taxes, governmental assessments, insurance
         premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or
         ground rents that previously became due and owing have been paid, or
         an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to
         pay for every such item that remains unpaid and that has been
         assessed, but is not yet due and payable. Except for (A) payments in
         the nature of escrow payments, and (B) interest accruing from the
         date of the Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the Mortgage
         proceeds, whichever is later, to the day that precedes by one month
         the Due Date of the first installment of principal and interest,
         including without limitation, taxes and insurance payments, the
         Master Servicer has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or
         knowingly received any advance of funds by a party other than the
         Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount
         required by the Mortgage.

                  (45) The Mortgage Loans originated by CHL were underwritten
         in all material respects in accordance with CHL's underwriting
         guidelines for credit blemished quality mortgage loans or, with
         respect to Mortgage Loans purchased by CHL were underwritten in all
         material respects in accordance with customary and prudent
         underwriting guidelines generally used by originators of credit
         blemished quality mortgage loans.

                  (46) Prior to the approval of the Mortgage Loan application,
         an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property was obtained from a
         qualified appraiser, duly appointed by the originator, who had no
         interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any
         loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not
         affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan; such
         appraisal is in a form acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.



                                      72

                  (47) None of the Mortgage Loans is a graduated payment
         mortgage loan or a growing equity mortgage loan, and no Mortgage Loan
         is subject to a buydown or similar arrangement.

                  (48) The Mortgage Rates borne by the Initial Mortgage Loans
         in Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 as of the Cut-off Date ranged
         between the approximate per annum percentages specified on the
         Collateral Schedule and the weighted average Mortgage Rate as of the
         Cut-off Date was approximately the per annum rate specified on the
         Collateral Schedule.

                  (49) The Mortgage Loans were selected from among the
         outstanding one- to four-family mortgage loans in the applicable
         Seller's portfolio at the Closing Date as to which the
         representations and warranties made as to the Mortgage Loans set
         forth in this Section 2.03(b) and Sections 2.03(c) and 2.03(d) can be
         made. No selection was made in a manner that would adversely affect
         the interests of Certificateholders.

                  (50) The Gross Margins on the Initial Mortgage Loans in Loan
         Group 1 and Loan Group 2 range between the approximate percentages
         specified on the Collateral Schedule, and the weighted average Gross
         Margin was approximately the percentage specified in the Collateral
         Schedule.

                  (51) Each of the Initial Mortgage Loans in the Mortgage Pool
         has a Due Date on or before the date specified in the Collateral
         Schedule.

                  (52) The Mortgage Loans, individually and in the aggregate,
         conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof in the
         Prospectus Supplement.

                  (53) There is no obligation on the part of any Seller under
         the terms of the Mortgage or related Mortgage Note to make payments
         in addition to those made by the Mortgagor.

                  (54) Any leasehold estate securing a Mortgage Loan has a
         term of not less than five years in excess of the term of the related
         Mortgage Loan.

                  (55) Each Mortgage Loan represents a "qualified mortgage"
         within the meaning of Section 860(a)(3) of the Code (but without
         regard to the rule in Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860G-2(f)(2) that
         treats a defective obligation as a qualified mortgage, or any
         substantially similar successor provision) and applicable Treasury
         regulations promulgated thereunder.

                  (56) No Mortgage Loan was either a "consumer credit
         contract" or a "purchase money loan" as such terms are defined in 16
         C.F.R. ss. 433 nor is any Mortgage Loan a "mortgage" as defined in 15
         U.S.C. ss. 1602(aa).

                  (57) To the extent required under applicable law, each
         originator and subsequent mortgagee or servicer of the Mortgage Loan
         complied with all licensing requirements and was authorized to
         transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which the related
         Mortgaged Property is located at all times when it held or serviced
         the

                                      73

         Mortgage Loan. Any and all requirements of any federal, state or
         local laws or regulations, including, without limitation, usury,
         truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer
         credit protection, anti-predatory lending, fair credit reporting,
         unfair collection practice, equal credit opportunity, fair housing
         and disclosure laws and regulations, applicable to the
         solicitation, origination, collection and servicing of such
         Mortgage Loan have been complied with in all material respects;
         and any obligations of the holder of the Mortgage Note, Mortgage
         and other loan documents have been complied with in all material
         respects; servicing of each Mortgage Loan has been in accordance
         with prudent mortgage servicing standards, any applicable laws,
         rules and regulations and in accordance with the terms of the
         Mortgage Notes, Mortgage and other loan documents, whether such
         origination and servicing was done by the applicable Seller, its
         affiliates, or any third party which originated the Mortgage Loan
         on behalf of, or sold the Mortgage Loan to, any of them, or any
         servicing agent of any of the foregoing.

                  (58) The methodology used in underwriting the extension of
         credit for the Mortgage Loan employs objective mathematical
         principles which relate the borrower's income, assets and liabilities
         to the proposed payment and such underwriting methodology does not
         rely on the extent of the borrower's equity in the collateral as the
         principal determining factor in approving such credit extension. Such
         underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of origination
         (application/approval) the borrower had a reasonable ability to make
         timely payments on the Mortgage Loan.

                  (59) No borrower was required to purchase any credit life,
         disability, accident or health insurance product as a condition of
         obtaining the extension of credit. No borrower obtained a prepaid
         single-premium credit life, disability, accident or health insurance
         policy in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

                  (60) If the Mortgage Loan provides that the interest rate on
         the principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan may be adjusted,
         all of the terms of the related Mortgage pertaining to interest rate
         adjustments, payment adjustments and adjustments of the outstanding
         principal balance have been made in accordance with the terms of the
         related Mortgage Note and applicable law and are enforceable and such
         adjustments will not affect the priority of the Mortgage lien.

                  (61) The Mortgaged Property complies with all applicable
         laws, rules and regulations relating to environmental matters,
         including but not limited to those relating to radon, asbestos and
         lead paint and no Seller nor, to the best of CHL's knowledge, the
         Mortgagor, has received any notice of any violation or potential
         violation of such law.

                  (62) There is no action, suit or proceeding pending, or to
         the best of CHL's knowledge, threatened or likely to be asserted with
         respect to the Mortgage Loan against or affecting any Seller before
         or by any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental
         body.

                  (63) No action, inaction, or event has occurred and no state
         of fact exists or has existed that has resulted or will result in the
         exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any
         applicable hazard insurance policy, irrespective of the cause of such
         failure of coverage. In connection with the placement of any such
         insurance, no commission, fee, or other compensation has been or will
         be received by CHL or any designee of CHL or any corporation in which
         CHL or any officer, director, or employee had a financial interest at
         the time of placement of such insurance.

                  (64) Each Mortgage Loan has a fully assignable life of loan
         tax service contract which may be assigned without the payment of any
         fee.

                  (65) No Mortgagor has notified CHL or the Master Servicer on
         CHL's behalf, and CHL has no knowledge, of any relief requested or
         allowed to a Mortgagor under the Relief Act or any similar state or
         local law.

                  (66) Each Mortgage Loan was originated by a savings and loan
         association, savings bank, commercial bank, credit union, insurance
         company, or mortgage banking company which is supervised and examined
         by a federal or state authority, or by a mortgagee approved by the
         Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 2.03
         and 2.11 of the National Housing Act.

                  (67) Each Mortgage Loan was (A) originated no earlier than

         Mortgage Loan pursuant to a mortgage loan purchase agreement or other
         similar agreement and (B) underwritten or reunderwritten by the
         applicable Seller in accordance with the applicable Seller's
         underwriting guidelines in effect at the time the loan was
         underwritten or reunderwritten, as applicable.

                  (68) Each Mortgage Loan, at the time it was originated and
         as of the Closing Date or the related Subsequent Transfer Date, as
         applicable, complied in all material respects with applicable local,
         state and federal laws, including, but not limited to, all predatory
         and abusive lending laws.

                  (69) None of the Mortgage Loans is a "high cost" mortgage
         loan as defined by applicable federal, state and local predatory and
         abusive lending laws.

                  (70) Each Prepayment Charge is enforceable and was
         originated in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local
         laws.

                  (71) None of the Mortgage Loans that are secured by property
         located in the State of Illinois are in violation of the provisions
         of the Illinois Interest Act; 815 Ill. Comp. Stat. 205/0.01 (2004).

                  (73) No Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund is a High Cost Loan
         or Covered Loan, as applicable (as such terms are defined in the
         then-current Standard & Poor's LEVELS(R) Glossary which is now
         Version 5.6(c), Appendix E) and no Mortgage Loan originated on or
         after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 is governed by the
         Georgia Fair Lending Act.

                  (74) Each Mortgage Loan is secured by a "single family
         residence" within the meaning of Section 25(e)(10) of the Internal
         Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended) (the "Code"). The fair market value
         of the manufactured home securing each Mortgage Loan was at least
         equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the contract at either
         (i) the time the contract was originated (determined pursuant to the
         REMIC Provisions) or (ii) the time the contract is transferred to the
         purchaser. Each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage" under Section
         860G(a)(3) of the Code.

                  (75) No Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund is a "high cost

         risk home" or "predatory" loan under any applicable state, federal or
         local law (or a similarly classified loan using different terminology
         under a law imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or additional
         legal liability for residential mortgage loans having high interest
         rates, points and/or fees).

                  (76) There is no Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund that was
         originated on or after October 1, 2002 and before March 7, 2003,

            mortgage loan that has an original stated maturity of less than

            was encouraged or required to select a Mortgage Loan product
            offered by the Mortgage Loan's originator which is a higher cost
            product designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless at the
            time of such Mortgage Loan's origination, such borrower did not
            qualify taking into account credit history and debt to income
            ratios for a lower cost credit product then offered by such
            Mortgage Loan's originator or any affiliate of the Mortgage Loan's
            originator. If, at the time of loan application, the borrower may
            have qualified for a for a lower cost credit product then offered
            by any mortgage lending affiliate of the Mortgage Loan's
            originator, the Mortgage Loan's originator referred the borrower's
            application to such affiliate for underwriting consideration;

                  (xv) The methodology used in underwriting the extension of
            credit for each Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 employs objective
            mathematical principles



                                      77
<PAGE>

            which relate the borrower's income, assets and liabilities to the
            proposed payment and such underwriting methodology does not rely
            on the extent of the borrower's equity in the collateral as the
            principal determining factor in approving such credit extension.
            Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of
            origination (application/approval) the borrower had a reasonable
            ability to make timely payments on such Mortgage Loan;

                  (xvi) With respect to any Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 that
            contains a provision permitting imposition of a premium upon a
            prepayment prior to maturity: (i) prior to the loan's origination,
            the borrower agreed to such premium in exchange for a monetary
            benefit, including but not limited to a rate or fee reduction,
            (ii) prior to the loan's origination, the borrower was offered the
            option of obtaining a mortgage loan that did not require payment
            of such a premium, (iii) the prepayment premium is disclosed to
            the borrower in the loan documents pursuant to applicable state
            and federal law, (iv) for loans originated on or after September
            1, 2004, the duration of the prepayment period shall not exceed
            three (3) years from the date of the note, unless the loan was
            modified to reduce the prepayment period to no more than three
            years from the date of the note and the borrower was notified in
            writing of such reduction in prepayment period, and (v)
            notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, the
            Master Servicer shall not impose such prepayment premium in any
            instance when the mortgage debt is accelerated as the result of
            the borrower's default in making the loan payments;

                  (xvii) No borrower related to a Mortgage Loan in Loan Group
            1 was required to purchase any credit, life, disability, accident
            or health insurance product as a condition of obtaining the
            extension of credit. No borrower related to a Mortgage Loan in
            Loan Group 1 obtained a prepaid single premium credit, life,
            disability, accident or health insurance policy in connection with
            the origination of the Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1; No proceeds
            from any Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 were used to purchase
            single premium credit insurance policies as part of the
            origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Mortgage Loan;

                  (xviii) All points and fees related to each Mortgage Loan in
            Loan Group 1 were disclosed in writing to the borrower in
            accordance with applicable state and federal law and regulation.
            Except in the case of a Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 in an
            original principal amount of less than $60,000 which would have
            resulted in an unprofitable origination, no borrower was charged
            "points and fees" (whether or not financed) in an amount greater
            than 5% of the principal amount of such loan, such 5% limitation
            is calculated in accordance with Fannie Mae's anti-predatory
            lending requirements as set forth in the Fannie Mae Selling Guide;

                  (xix) All fees and charges (including finance charges) and
            whether or not financed, assessed, collected or to be collected in
            connection with the origination and servicing of each Mortgage
            Loan in Loan Group 1 has been disclosed in writing to the borrower
            in accordance with applicable state and federal law and
            regulation; and

                  (xx) The Master Servicer will transmit full-file credit
            reporting data for each Mortgage Loan pursuant to Fannie Mae Guide
            Announcement 95-19 and that for each Mortgage Loan, Servicer
            agrees it shall report one of the following statuses each month as
            follows: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days,
            etc.), foreclosed, or charged-off.

                  (78) The representations in Section 2.03(c)(1)-(6) and
      2.03(d)(1)-(6) are true and correct.

      of incorporation or by-laws of Park Monaco or (B) materially conflict
      with, result in a material breach, violation or

      acceleration of, or result in a material default under, the terms of any
      other material agreement or instrument to which Park Monaco is a party
      or by which it may be bound, or (C) constitute a material violation of
      any statute, order or regulation applicable to Park Monaco of any court,
      regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having
      jurisdiction over Park Monaco; and Park Monaco is not in breach or
      violation of any material indenture or other material agreement or
      instrument, or in violation of any statute, order or regulation of any
      court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body
      having jurisdiction over it which breach or violation may materially
      impair Park Monaco's ability to perform or meet any of its obligations
      under this Agreement.

                  (4) No litigation is pending or, to the best of Park
      Monaco's knowledge, threatened, against Park Monaco that would
      materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or
      enforceability of this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or
      the ability of Park Monaco to sell the Park Monaco Mortgage Loans or to
      perform any of its other obligations under this Agreement or any
      Subsequent Transfer Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof or
      thereof.

                  (5) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any
      court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
      delivery and performance by Park Monaco of, or compliance by Park Monaco
      with, this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or the
      consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or if any such
      consent, approval, authorization or order is required, Park Monaco has
      obtained the same.

                  (6) Park Monaco will treat the transfer of the Park Monaco
      Mortgage Loans to the Depositor as a sale of the Park Monaco Mortgage
      Loans for all tax, accounting and regulatory purposes.

                  (7) Immediately prior to the assignment of each Park Monaco
      Mortgage Loan to the Depositor, Park Monaco had good title to, and was
      the sole owner of, such Park Monaco Mortgage Loan free and clear of any
      pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest and had full right and
      authority, subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement
      with, any other party, to sell and assign the same pursuant to this
      Agreement.

            (d) Park Sienna hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor
and the Trustee as follows, as of the Cut-off Date:

                  (1) Park Sienna is duly organized as a Delaware limited
      liability company and is validly existing and in good standing under the
      laws of the State of Delaware and is duly authorized and qualified to
      transact any and all business contemplated by this Agreement and each

      state in which a Mortgaged Property securing a Park Sienna Mortgage Loan
      is located or is otherwise not required under applicable law to effect
      such qualification and, in any event, is in compliance with the doing
      business laws of any such state, to the extent necessary to ensure its
      ability to enforce each Park Sienna

      perform, and to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated
      by this Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer Agreement and has duly
      authorized by all necessary company action on the part of Park Sienna

      Subsequent Transfer Agreement; and this Agreement and each Subsequent
      Transfer Agreement, assuming the due authorization, execution and
      delivery hereof by the other parties hereto, constitutes a legal, valid
      and binding obligation of Park Sienna, enforceable against Park Sienna
      in accordance with its terms, except that (a) the enforceability hereof
      may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and
      other similar laws relating to creditors' rights generally and (b) the
      remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of
      equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the
      discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be
      brought.

                  (3) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each
      Subsequent Transfer Agreement by Park Sienna, the sale of the Park
      Sienna Mortgage Loans by Park Sienna under this Agreement and each
      Subsequent Transfer Agreement, the consummation of any other of the
      transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer
      Agreement and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof are
      in the ordinary course of business of Park Sienna and will not (A)
      result in a material breach of any term or provision of the certificate
      of formation or limited liability company agreement of Park Sienna or
      (B) materially conflict with, result in a material breach, violation or
      acceleration of, or result in a material default under, the terms of any
      other material agreement or instrument to which Park Sienna is a party
      or by which it may be bound, or (C) constitute a material violation of
      any statute, order or regulation applicable to Park Sienna of any court,
      regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having
      jurisdiction over Park Sienna; and Park Sienna is not in breach or
      violation of any material indenture or other material agreement or
      instrument, or in violation of any statute, order or regulation of any

      having jurisdiction over it which breach or violation may materially
      impair Park Sienna's ability to perform or meet any of its obligations
      under this Agreement.

                  (4) No litigation is pending or, to the best of Park
      Sienna's knowledge, threatened, against Park Sienna that would
      materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or
      enforceability of this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or
      the ability of Park Sienna to sell the Park Sienna Mortgage Loans or to
      perform any of its other obligations under this Agreement or any
      Subsequent Transfer Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof or
      thereof.

                  (5) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any

      delivery and performance by Park Sienna of, or compliance by Park Sienna
      with, this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or the
      consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or if



                                      81
<PAGE>

      any such consent, approval, authorization or order is required, Park
      Sienna has obtained the same.

                  (6) Park Sienna will treat the transfer of the Park Sienna
      Mortgage Loans to the Depositor as a sale of the Park Sienna Mortgage
      Loans for all tax, accounting and regulatory purposes.

                  (7) Immediately prior to the assignment of each Park Sienna
      Mortgage Loan to the Depositor, Park Sienna had good title to, and was
      the sole owner of, such the Park Sienna Mortgage Loan free and clear of
      any pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest and had full right
      and authority, subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement
      with, any other party, to sell and assign the same pursuant to this
      Agreement.

            (e) Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
representation or warranty set forth in Section 2.03(a) through (d) that
materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in
any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt notice
thereof to the other parties, the NIM Insurer and the Swap Counterparty. Each
of the Master Servicer and the Sellers (each, a "Representing Party") hereby
covenants with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in
Sections 2.03(a) through (d) that within 90 days of the earlier of the
discovery by such Representing Party or receipt of written notice by such
Representing Party from any party of a breach of any representation or
warranty set forth herein made that materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such
breach in all material respects and, if such breach is not so cured, shall,
(i) if such 90-day period expires prior to the second anniversary of the
Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan") from the
Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Replacement Mortgage Loan, in the
manner and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section; or (ii)
repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from the Trustee at
the Purchase Price in the manner set forth below; provided that (a) any such
substitution pursuant to (i) above or repurchase pursuant to (ii) above shall
not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel
required by Section 2.05 hereof, (b) any such substitution pursuant to (i)
above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery to the Trustee of
a Request for File Release and (c) any such substitution pursuant to (i) above
shall include a payment by the applicable Representing Party of any amount as
calculated under item (iii) of the definition of "Purchase Price". Any
Representing Party liable for a breach under this Section 2.03 shall promptly
reimburse the Master Servicer or the Trustee for any expenses reasonably
incurred by the Master Servicer or the Trustee in respect of enforcing the
remedies for such breach. To enable the Master Servicer to amend the Mortgage
Loan Schedule, any Representing Party liable for a breach under this Section
2.03 shall, unless it cures such breach in a timely fashion pursuant to this
Section 2.03, promptly notify the Master Servicer whether such Representing
Party intends either to repurchase, or to substitute for, the Mortgage Loan
affected by such breach. With respect to the representations and warranties
described in this Section that are made to the best of the Representing
Party's knowledge, if it is discovered by any of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Sellers or the Trustee that the substance of such representation
and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely
affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding the
Representing Party's lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such
representation or warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the
applicable representation or warranty. Any breach of a



                                      82
<PAGE>

representation set forth in Section 2.03(a)(8), (b)(72), (b)(75), (b)(76) or
(b)(77) shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the
Certificateholders.

             With respect to any Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans, the
applicable Seller delivering such Replacement Mortgage Loan shall deliver to
the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders the related Mortgage
Note, Mortgage and assignment of the Mortgage, and such other documents and
agreements as are required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed
and the Mortgage assigned as required by Section 2.01. No substitution will be
made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month.
Scheduled Payments due with respect to Replacement Mortgage Loans in the Due
Period related to the Distribution Date on which such proceeds are to be
distributed shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the
applicable Seller delivering such Replacement Mortgage Loan on such
Distribution Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to
Certificateholders will include the Scheduled Payment due on any Deleted
Mortgage Loan for the related Due Period and thereafter the applicable Seller
shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for
the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans
and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to
the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans
shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the
applicable Seller delivering such Replacement Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to
have made with respect to such Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the
date of substitution, the representations and warranties set forth in Section
2.03(b), (c) or (d) with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such
substitution and the deposit to the Certificate Account of the amount required
to be deposited therein in connection with such substitution as described in
the following paragraph, the Co-Trustee shall release to the Representing
Party the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan and held for
the benefit of the Certificateholders and shall execute and deliver at the
Master Servicer's direction such instruments of transfer or assignment as have
been prepared by the Master Servicer, in each case without recourse, as shall
be necessary to vest in the applicable Seller, or its respective designee,
title to the Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan substituted for
pursuant to this Section 2.03.

            For any month in which any Seller substitutes one or more
Replacement Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal
balance of all such Replacement Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution
is less than the Stated Principal Balance (after application of the principal
portion of the Scheduled Payment due in the month of substitution) of all such
Deleted Mortgage Loans. An amount equal to the aggregate of the deficiencies
described in the preceding sentence (such amount, the "Substitution Adjustment
Amount") shall be forwarded by the applicable Seller to the Master Servicer
and deposited by the Master Servicer into the Certificate Account not later
than the Determination Date for the Distribution Date relating to the
Prepayment Period during which the related Mortgage Loan became required to be
purchased or replaced hereunder.

            In the event that a Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan,
the Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Certificate Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 on the Determination Date for the Distribution Date
in the month following the month during which



                                      83
<PAGE>

such Seller became obligated to repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan and
upon such deposit of the Purchase Price, the delivery of the Opinion of
Counsel required by Section 2.05, if any, and the receipt of a Request for
File Release, the Co-Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File held for
the benefit of the Certificateholders to such Seller, and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver at such Person's direction the related instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by such Seller, in each case without recourse,
as shall be necessary to transfer title from the Trustee for the benefit of
the Certificateholders and transfer the Trustee's interest to such Seller to
any Mortgage Loan purchased pursuant to this Section 2.03. It is understood
and agreed that the obligation under this Agreement of the Sellers to cure,
repurchase or replace any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and
is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the Sellers respecting
such breach available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee.

            (f) The representations and warranties set forth in this Section
2.03 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Co-Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to each Mortgage Loan.

            Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.

            The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Master
Servicer and the Trustee as follows, as of the date hereof and as of each
Subsequent Transfer Date:

                  (1) The Depositor is duly organized and is validly existing
      as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of
      Delaware and has full power and authority (corporate and other)
      necessary to own or hold its properties and to conduct its business as
      now conducted by it and to enter into and perform its obligations under
      this Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer Agreement.

                  (2) The Depositor has the full corporate power and authority
      to execute, deliver and perform, and to enter into and consummate the
      transactions contemplated by, this Agreement and each Subsequent
      Transfer Agreement and has duly authorized, by all necessary corporate
      action on its part, the execution, delivery and performance of this
      Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer Agreement; and this Agreement and
      each Subsequent Transfer Agreement, assuming the due authorization,
      execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto, constitutes a
      legal, valid and binding obligation of the Depositor, enforceable
      against the Depositor in accordance with its terms, subject, as to
      enforceability, to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
      moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally
      and (ii) general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement
      is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law.

                  (3) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each
      Subsequent Transfer Agreement by the Depositor, the consummation of the
      transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the fulfillment of or
      compliance with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business
      of the Depositor and will not (A) result in a material breach of any
      term or provision of the charter or by-laws of the Depositor or (B)
      materially conflict with, result in a material breach, violation or
      acceleration of, or result



                                      84
<PAGE>

      in a material default under, the terms of any other material agreement
      or instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it may be
      bound or (C) constitute a material violation of any statute, order or
      regulation applicable to the Depositor of any court, regulatory body,
      administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the
      Depositor; and the Depositor is not in breach or violation of any
      material indenture or other material agreement or instrument, or in
      violation of any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory
      body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction
      over it which breach or violation may materially impair the Depositor's
      ability to perform or meet any of its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (4) No litigation is pending, or, to the best of the
      Depositor's knowledge, threatened, against the Depositor that would
      materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or
      enforceability of this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or
      the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under this
      Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement in accordance with the
      terms hereof or thereof.

                  (5) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any
      court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
      delivery and performance by the Depositor of, or compliance by the
      Depositor with, this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement or
      the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or if any such
      consent, approval, authorization or order is required, the Depositor has
      obtained the same.

            The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with
respect to each Mortgage Loan, as of the Closing Date or the related
Subsequent Transfer Date, as applicable, following the transfer of such
Mortgage Loan to it by the Sellers, the Depositor had good title to the
Initial Mortgage Loans or related Subsequent Mortgage Loans, as applicable,
and the related Mortgage Notes were subject to no offsets, claims, defenses or
counterclaims.

            It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in the two immediately preceding paragraphs shall survive
delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Co-Trustee. Upon discovery by the
Depositor or the Trustee, of a breach of any of the foregoing representations
and warranties set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph (referred to
herein as a "breach"), which breach materially and adversely affects the
interest of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall
give prompt written notice to the others and to each Rating Agency, the NIM
Insurer and the Swap Counterparty. The Depositor hereby covenants with respect
to the representations and warranties made by it in this Section 2.04 that
within 90 days of the earlier of the discovery by it or receipt of written
notice by it from any party of a breach of any representation or warranty set
forth herein made that materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such breach in all
material respects and, if such breach is not so cured, shall repurchase or
replace the affected Mortgage Loan or Loans in accordance with the procedure
set forth in Section 2.03(e).

            Section 2.05 Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with
                         Substitutions and Repurchases.

            (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, with
respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not in default or as to which default is
not imminent, no repurchase or substitution pursuant to Sections 2.02, 2.03 or
2.04 shall be made unless the Representing Party making such repurchase or
substitution delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (which such
Representing Party shall use reasonable efforts to obtain), addressed to the
Trustee to the effect that such repurchase or substitution would not (i)
result in the imposition of the tax on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust
Fund or contributions after the Closing Date, as defined in sections
860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively or (ii) cause the any REMIC
formed hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding. Any Mortgage Loan as to which repurchase or
substitution was delayed pursuant to this paragraph shall be repurchased or
the substitution therefor shall occur (subject to compliance with Sections
2.02, 2.03 or 2.04) upon the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a default or
imminent default with respect to such loan and (b) receipt by the Trustee of
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such repurchase or substitution, as
applicable, will not result in the events described in clause (i) or clause
(ii) of the preceding sentence.

            (b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, any Seller, the Master
Servicer or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a
"qualified mortgage" within the meaning of section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the
party discovering such fact shall promptly (and in any event within five
Business Days of discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties
and the NIM Insurer. In connection therewith, the Trustee shall require CHL,
at CHL's option, to either (i) substitute, if the conditions in Section
2.03(e) with respect to substitutions are satisfied, a Replacement Mortgage
Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage
Loan within 90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a
Mortgage Loan for a breach of representation or warranty contained in Section
2.03. The Trustee shall reconvey to CHL the Mortgage Loan to be released
pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as
it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or
warranty contained in Section 2.03.

            Section 2.06 Authentication and Delivery of Certificates.

            The Trustee acknowledges the transfer and assignment to it of the
Trust Fund and, concurrently with such transfer and assignment, has executed,
authenticated and delivered, to or upon the order of the Depositor, the
Certificates in authorized denominations evidencing the entire ownership of
the Trust Fund. The Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Fund and exercise the
rights referred to above for the benefit of all present and future Holders of
the Certificates and to perform the duties set forth in this Agreement.

            Section 2.07 Covenants of the Master Servicer.

            The Master Servicer hereby covenants to the Depositor and the
Trustee as follows:

            (a) the Master Servicer shall comply in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of
the insurer under each Required Insurance Policy; and

            (b) no written information, certificate of an officer, statement
furnished in writing or written report delivered to the Depositor, any
affiliate of the Depositor or the Trustee and prepared by the Master Servicer
pursuant to this Agreement will contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the information,
certificate, statement or report not misleading.

                                 ARTICLE III.
                ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

            Section 3.01 Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.

            For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer
shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with customary
and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage loan lenders in the
respective states in which the Mortgaged Properties are located, including
taking all required and appropriate actions under each Required Insurance
Policy and taking all required and appropriate actions under the Mortgage
Insurance Policy on behalf of the Co-Trustee (including but not limited to
submitting monthly unpaid principal balance updates to the Mortgage Insurer
and preparing and submitting monthly delinquency and default reports to the
Mortgage Insurer), other than the payment of the Mortgage Insurance Premium
and obtaining the approval of the Mortgage Insurer with respect to the
appointment of a successor servicer. In connection with such servicing and
administration, the Master Servicer shall have full power and authority,
acting alone and/or through subservicers as provided in Section 3.02 hereof,
subject to the terms hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other
instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged
Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only
in the manner provided in this Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance
Proceeds, other Liquidation Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries, and (iv)
subject to Section 3.12(b), to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of
the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan; provided
that the Master Servicer shall take no action that is inconsistent with or
prejudices the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders in any
Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the Depositor and the Trustee
under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall represent and protect the
interest of the Trustee in the same manner as it currently protects its own
interest in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding or
litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or permit any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan which would
(i) cause any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC, (ii)
result in the imposition of any tax under section 860(a) or 860(d) of the Code
or (iii) cause any Covered Mortgage Loan to not be covered by the Mortgage
Insurance Policy, but in any case the Master



                                      87
<PAGE>

Servicer shall not act in any manner that is a lesser standard than that
provided in the first sentence of this Section 3.01. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer, in its own name or in the
name of the Depositor and the Trustee, is hereby authorized and empowered by
the Depositor and the Trustee, when the Master Servicer believes it
appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or
discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage
Loans, and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of
the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the
Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery
by any or all of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Master
Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans. Upon receipt of such
documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee shall execute such documents and
deliver them to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer further is authorized
and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the
Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the Subservicer, when the Master
Servicer or the Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in
its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, or
cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R)
System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of assignment and
other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording
of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its
successors and assigns.

            In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the
Master Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for
the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from
related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.06, and further
as provided in Section 3.08. All costs incurred by the Master Servicer, if
any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the
Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose
of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to
the Stated Principal Balance under the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding
that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.

            The Master Servicer shall deliver a list of Servicing Officers to
the Trustee by the Closing Date.

            In addition, the Master Servicer shall administer the Mortgage
Insurance Policy on behalf of itself, the Sellers, the Depositor, and the
Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, when it is necessary to
make claims and receive payments under the Mortgage Insurance Policy. In
connection with its activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the
Master Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any primary insurance policies
and, in this regard, to take any reasonable action necessary to permit
recovery under any primary insurance policies respecting defaulted Mortgage
Loans. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any primary
insurance policies shall be deposited in the Certificate Account.

            The Master Servicer shall take whatever action is appropriate to
maximize the amounts payable under the Mortgage Insurance Policy and to
service the Covered Mortgage



                                      88
<PAGE>

Loans in the manner required by the Mortgage Insurance Policy. The Master
Servicer shall prepare and submit all claims eligible for submission under the
Mortgage Insurance Policy and shall, except as otherwise specified in this
Agreement, perform all of the obligations of the insured under the Mortgage
Insurance Policy. If the Mortgage Insurance Policy is terminated for any
reason other than the exhaustion of its coverage, or if the financial strength
rating of the Mortgage Insurer is reduced to below investment grade, the
Master Servicer will use its best efforts to obtain a comparable policy from
an insurer that is acceptable to the Rating Agencies. The replacement policy
shall provide coverage equal to the then remaining coverage of the applicable
Mortgage Insurance Policy, if available. However, if the premium cost of a
replacement policy exceeds the premium cost of the Mortgage Insurance Policy,
the coverage amount of the replacement policy will be reduced so that its
premium cost will not exceed the premium cost of the Mortgage Insurance
Policy.

            In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability
with respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to
adjustments to Mortgage Rates, Scheduled Payments or Stated Principal Balances
that were made by the Master Servicer in a manner not consistent with the
terms of the related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Master Servicer,
upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account from its own funds the amount
of any such shortfall and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund,
the Trustee, the Depositor and any successor master servicer in respect of any
such liability. Such indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of
this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.01 shall not
limit the ability of the Master Servicer to seek recovery of any such amounts
from the related Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Note, as
permitted by law and shall not be an expense of the Trust.

            Section 3.02 Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of
                         Master Servicer.

            (a) The Master Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any
Mortgage Loan by a subservicer (each, a "Subservicer") pursuant to a
subservicing agreement (each, a "Subservicing Agreement"); provided that (i)
such subservicing arrangement and the terms of the related subservicing
agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in a manner
consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder, (ii) that
such subservicing agreements would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading
by any Rating Agency of the ratings on any Class of Certificates, as evidenced
by a letter to that effect delivered by each Rating Agency to the Depositor
and the NIM Insurer and (iii) the NIM Insurer shall have consented to such
subservicing agreements (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld)
with Subservicers, for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing
Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the
Master Servicer's execution and delivery of such instruments. The Master
Servicer, with the written consent of the NIM Insurer (which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld), shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing
Agreement and the rights and obligations of any Subservicer pursuant to any
Subservicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such
Subservicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of any subservicing
agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or
arrangements between the Master Servicer or a subservicer or reference to
actions taken through a Master Servicer or otherwise,



                                      89
<PAGE>

the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Depositor, the
Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administration of the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without
diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such subservicing
agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the
subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as
if the Master Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage
Loans. Every subservicing agreement entered into by the Master Servicer shall
contain a provision giving the successor Master Servicer the option to
terminate such agreement without cost in the event a successor Master Servicer
is appointed. All actions of each subservicer performed pursuant to the
related subservicing agreement shall be performed as an agent of the Master
Servicer with the same force and effect as if performed directly by the Master
Servicer.

            (b) For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be
deemed to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect
to the Mortgage Loans that are received by a subservicer regardless of whether
such payments are remitted by the subservicer to the Master Servicer.

            Section 3.03 Rights of the Depositor, the Sellers, the
                         Certificateholders, the NIM Insurer and the Trustee in
                         Respect of the Master Servicer.

            None of the Trustee, the Sellers, the Certificateholders, the NIM
Insurer or the Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any
action or failure to act by the Master Servicer, and none of them is obligated
to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer hereunder or otherwise.
The Master Servicer shall afford (and any Subservicing Agreement shall provide
that each Subservicer shall afford) the Depositor, the NIM Insurer and the
Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to all
records maintained by the Master Servicer (and any such Subservicer) in
respect of the Master Servicer's rights and obligations hereunder and access
to officers of the Master Servicer (and those of any such Subservicer)
responsible for such obligations. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall
furnish to the Depositor, the NIM Insurer and the Trustee its (and any such
Subservicer's) most recent financial statements and such other information
relating to the Master Servicer's capacity to perform its obligations under
this Agreement that it possesses. To the extent such information is not
otherwise available to the public, the Depositor, the NIM Insurer and the
Trustee shall not disseminate any information obtained pursuant to the
preceding two sentences without the Masters Servicer's (or any such
Subservicer's) written consent, except as required pursuant to this Agreement
or to the extent that it is necessary to do so (i) in working with legal
counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies, rating
agencies or reinsurers or (ii) pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority
having jurisdiction over the Depositor, the Trustee, the NIM Insurer or the
Trust Fund, and in either case, the Depositor, the NIM Insurer or the Trustee,
as the case may be, shall use its reasonable best efforts to assure the
confidentiality of any such disseminated non-public information. The Depositor
may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer
under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a
designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer under
this Agreement or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement; provided by virtue of such performance by the Depositor of its
designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or



                                      90
<PAGE>

liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and is not
obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement or otherwise.

            Section 3.04 Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.

            In the event that the Master Servicer shall for any reason no
longer be the Master Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of
Default), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder arising thereafter (except
that the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses of the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.10 hereof or any acts or omissions of the predecessor
Master Servicer hereunder, (ii) obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited
from doing so by applicable law, (iii) obligated to effectuate repurchases or
substitutions of Mortgage Loans hereunder, including pursuant to Section 2.02
or 2.03 hereof, (iv) responsible for expenses of the Master Servicer pursuant
to Section 2.03 or (v) deemed to have made any representations and warranties
hereunder, including pursuant to Section 2.03 or the first paragraph of
Section 6.02 hereof). If the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be
the Master Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default), the Trustee
(or any other successor servicer) may, at its option, succeed to any rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer under any subservicing agreement in
accordance with the terms thereof; provided that the Trustee (or any other
successor servicer) shall not incur any liability or have any obligations in
its capacity as servicer under a subservicing agreement arising prior to the
date of such succession unless it expressly elects to succeed to the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer thereunder; and the Master Servicer
shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the
subservicing agreement arising prior to the date of such succession.

            The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the
expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents
and records relating to each subservicing agreement and the Mortgage Loans
then being serviced thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected held by
it and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient
transfer of the subservicing agreement to the assuming party.

            Section 3.05 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Certificate
                    Account; Distribution Account; Pre-Funding Account; Seller
                    Shortfall Interest Requirement.

            (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in
accordance with customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage
lenders in the respective states in which the Mortgaged Properties are located
to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the
Mortgage Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this
Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance
Policy. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its
discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, subject to Section 3.20, any
Prepayment Charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a
Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage
Note for a period not greater than 270 days. In the event of any such
arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make Advances on the related Mortgage
Loan during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule
of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such
arrangements. In addition, the NIM Insurer's prior written consent shall be



                                      91
<PAGE>

required for any waiver of Prepayment Charges or for the extension of the due
dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note, if the aggregate number of
outstanding Mortgage Loans that have been granted such waivers or extensions
exceeds 5% of the aggregate number of Initial Mortgage Loans and Subsequent
Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall not be required to institute or join
in litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a
Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental
authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes
that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to
which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law.

            (b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Certificate
Account into which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited
on a daily basis within two Business Days of receipt, except as otherwise
specifically provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted
by Subservicers or received by it in respect of Mortgage Loans subsequent to
the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest due on the
Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date) and the following amounts
required to be deposited hereunder:

                  (1) all payments on account of principal, including
      Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;

                  (2) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage
      Loans (net of the related Servicing Fee and Prepayment Interest Excess
      permitted under Section 3.15 hereof to the extent not previously paid to
      or withheld by the Master Servicer);

                  (3) all Insurance Proceeds;

                  (4) all Liquidation Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries,
      other than proceeds to be applied to the restoration or repair of the
      Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the
      Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures;

                  (5) all Compensating Interest;

                  (6) any amount required to be deposited by the Master
      Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any losses on
      Permitted Investments;

                  (7) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master
      Servicer pursuant to Section 3.10 hereof;

                  (8) the Purchase Price and any Substitution Adjustment
      Amount;

                  (9) all Advances made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee
      pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof;

                  (10) all Prepayment Charges and Master Servicer Prepayment
      Charge Payment Amounts; and

                  (11) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.

<PAGE>

            The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer
into the Certificate Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and
agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the
nature of late payment charges or assumption fees, if collected, need not be
remitted by the Master Servicer. In the event that the Master Servicer shall
remit any amount not required to be remitted and not otherwise subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof, it may at any time withdraw or
direct the institution maintaining the Certificate Account, to withdraw such
amount from the Certificate Account, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. Such withdrawal or direction may be accomplished by
delivering written notice thereof to the institution maintaining the
Certificate Account, that describes the amounts deposited in error in the
Certificate Account. The Master Servicer shall maintain adequate records with
respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section. All funds deposited
in the Certificate Account shall be held in trust for the Certificateholders
until withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08.

            No later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Business Day prior to
the Master Servicer Advance Date in each of and January 2006, February 2006
and March 2006, CHL shall remit to the Master Servicer, and the Master
Servicer shall deposit in the Certificate Account, the Seller Shortfall
Interest Requirement (if any) for such Master Servicer Advance Date.

            (c) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Distribution Account. The Trustee shall, promptly upon
receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and retain therein the following:

                  (1) the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer
      pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.08(a); and

                  (2) any amount required to be deposited by the Master
      Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any losses on
      Permitted Investments.

            The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer
and deposit by the Trustee into the Distribution Account shall be exclusive.
In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not required to
be remitted and not otherwise subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.08
hereof, it may at any time direct the Trustee to withdraw such amount from the
Distribution Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
Such direction may be accomplished by delivering a written notice to the
Trustee that describes the amounts deposited in error in the Distribution
Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution Account shall be held by the
Trustee in trust for the Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance with
this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08. In no event shall
the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals from the Distribution Account at
the direction of the Master Servicer.

            (d) If the Pre-Funded Amount is greater than zero, the Trustee
shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the
Pre-Funding Account, and on the Closing Date, CHL shall remit the Pre-Funded
Amount to the Trustee for deposit in the Pre-Funding Account.



                                      93
<PAGE>

            On the Business Day before the Distribution Date following the end
of the Funding Period, the Trustee shall (i) withdraw the amount on deposit in
the Pre-Funding Account (net of investment income), (ii) promptly deposit such
amount in the Distribution Account, and (iii) distribute each amount to the
Certificates on the Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.04.

            (e) Each institution that maintains the Certificate Account, the
Distribution Account or the Pre-Funding Account shall invest the funds in each
such account, as directed by the Master Servicer, in Permitted Investments,
which shall mature not later than (x) in the case of the Certificate Account,
the second Business Day next preceding the related Distribution Account
Deposit Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the
institution that maintains such Certificate Account, then such Permitted
Investment shall mature not later than the Business Day next preceding such
Distribution Account Deposit Date) and (y) in the case of the Distribution
Account and the Pre-Funding Account, the Business Day immediately preceding
the first Distribution Date that follows the date of such investment (except
that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that
maintains such Distribution Account or Pre-Funding Account, then such
Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date), in
each case, shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such
Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders. In the case of (i) the Certificate Account
and the Distribution Account, all income and gain net of any losses realized
from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as
servicing compensation and shall be remitted to it monthly as provided herein
and (ii) the Pre-Funding Account, all income and gain net of any losses
realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Depositor
and shall be remitted to the Depositor as provided herein. The amount of any
losses incurred in the Certificate Account or the Distribution Account in
respect of any such investments shall be deposited by the Master Servicer in
the Certificate Account or paid to the Trustee for deposit into the
Distribution Account out of the Master Servicer's own funds immediately as
realized. The amount of any losses incurred in the Pre-Funding Account in
respect of any such investments shall be paid by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee for deposit into the Pre-Funding Account out of the Master Servicer's
own funds immediately as realized. The Trustee shall not be liable for the
amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment or lack of investment
of funds held in the Certificate Account, the Distribution Account or the
Pre-Funding Account and made in accordance with this Section 3.05.

            (f) The Master Servicer shall give at least 30 days advance notice
to the Trustee, each Seller, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any
proposed change of location of the Certificate Account prior to any change
thereof. The Trustee shall give at least 30 days advance notice to the Master
Servicer, each Seller, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed
change of the location of the Distribution Account, the Pre-Funding Account or
the Carryover Reserve Fund prior to any change thereof.

            (g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if
any default occurs under any Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and,
subject to Sections 8.01 and 8.02(a)(4), at the request of the Holders of
Certificates representing more than 50% of the Voting Rights or the NIM
Insurer, shall take any action appropriate to enforce payment or performance,
including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

            Section 3.06 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items;
                         Escrow Accounts.

            To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note, the Master
Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (each, an "Escrow
Account") and deposit and retain therein all collections from the Mortgagors
(or advances by the Master Servicer) for the payment of taxes, assessments,
hazard insurance premiums or comparable items for the account of the
Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall require the Master Servicer to compel a
Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of applicable law.

            Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may
be made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance
premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or comparable items, to
reimburse the Master Servicer out of related collections for any payments made
pursuant to Sections 3.01 hereof (with respect to taxes and assessments and
insurance premiums) and 3.10 hereof (with respect to hazard insurance), to
refund to any Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages, to pay
interest, if required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage or Mortgage
Note, to Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account or to clear and
terminate the Escrow Account at the termination of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 9.01 hereof. The Escrow Accounts shall not be a part
of the Trust Fund.

            Section 3.07 Access to Certain Documentation and Information
                         Regarding the Mortgage Loans.

            The Master Servicer shall afford the Depositor, the NIM Insurer
and the Trustee reasonable access to all records and documentation regarding
the Mortgage Loans and all accounts, insurance policies and other matters
relating to this Agreement, such access being afforded without charge, but
only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices
of the Master Servicer designated by it. Upon request, the Master Servicer
shall furnish to the Trustee and the NIM Insurer its most recent publicly
available financial statements and any other information relating to its
capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement reasonably requested
by the NIM Insurer.

            Upon reasonable advance notice in writing if required by federal
regulation, the Master Servicer will provide to each Certificateholder or
Certificate Owner that is a savings and loan association, bank or insurance
company certain reports and reasonable access to information and documentation
regarding the Mortgage Loans sufficient to permit such Certificateholder or
Certificate Owner to comply with applicable regulations of the OTS or other
regulatory authorities with respect to investment in the Certificates;
provided that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each
such Certificateholder or Certificate Owner for actual expenses incurred by
the Master Servicer in providing such reports and access.

            Section 3.08 Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate Account,
                         Distribution Account, Carryover Reserve Fund and the
                         Principal Reserve Fund.

            (a) The Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals
from the Certificate Account for the following purposes:

                  (i) to pay to the Master Servicer (to the extent not
            previously paid to or withheld by the Master Servicer), as
            servicing compensation in accordance with Section 3.15, that
            portion of any payment of interest that equals the Servicing Fee
            for the period with respect to which such interest payment was
            made, and, as additional servicing compensation to the Master
            Servicer, those other amounts set forth in Section 3.15;

                  (ii) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the
            Trustee for Advances made by it with respect to the Mortgage
            Loans, such right of reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (ii)
            being limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loan(s)
            (including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
            Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries) that represent late recoveries
            of payments of principal and/or interest on such particular
            Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made;

                  (iii) [Reserved];

                  (iv) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the
            Trustee for any Nonrecoverable Advance previously made;

                  (v) to reimburse the Master Servicer from Insurance Proceeds
            for Insured Expenses covered by the related Insurance Policy;

                  (vi) to pay the Master Servicer any unpaid Servicing Fees
            and to reimburse it for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances, the
            Master Servicer's right to reimbursement of Servicing Advances
            pursuant to this subclause (vi) with respect to any Mortgage Loan
            being limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loan(s)
            (including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
            Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries and purchase and repurchase
            proceeds) that represent late recoveries of the payments for which
            such advances were made pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.06;

                  (vii) to pay to the applicable Seller, the Depositor or the
            Master Servicer, as applicable, with respect to each Mortgage Loan
            or property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased
            pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 3.12, all amounts received
            thereon and not taken into account in determining the related
            Purchase Price of such repurchased Mortgage Loan;

                  (viii) to reimburse the applicable Seller, the Master
            Servicer, the NIM Insurer or the Depositor for expenses incurred
            by any of them in connection with the Mortgage Loans or
            Certificates and reimbursable pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof;
            provided that such amount shall only be withdrawn following the



                                      96
<PAGE>

            withdrawal from the Certificate Account for deposit into the
            Distribution Account pursuant to the following paragraph;

                  (ix) to pay any lender-paid primary mortgage insurance
            premiums;

                  (x) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Certificate
            Account and not required to be deposited therein; and

                  (xi) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon
            termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.

            In addition, no later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on the
Distribution Account Deposit Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the
Certificate Account and remit to the Trustee the Interest Remittance Amount
and Principal Remittance Amount for each Loan Group, and the Trustee shall
deposit such amount in the Distribution Account.

            The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, a Principal Reserve Fund in the name of the Trustee. On
the Closing Date, CHL shall deposit into the Principal Reserve Fund $200.00.
Funds on deposit in the Principal Reserve Fund shall not be invested. The
Principal Reserve Fund shall be treated as an "outside reserve fund" under
applicable Treasury regulations and shall not be part of any REMIC created
under this Agreement.

            On the Business Day before the first Distribution Date, the
Trustee shall transfer $100.00 from the Principal Reserve Fund to the
Distribution Account, and on the first Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
withdraw $100 and distribute such amount to the Class A-R Certificates in
reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance thereof.

            On the Business Day before the Class P Principal Distribution
Date, the Trustee shall transfer from the Principal Reserve Fund to the
Distribution Account $100.00 and shall distribute such amount to the Class P
Certificates on the Class P Principal Distribution Date. Following the
distributions to be made in accordance with the preceding sentence, the
Trustee shall then terminate the Principal Reserve Fund.

            The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting,
on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any
withdrawal from the Certificate Account pursuant to subclauses (i), (ii),
(iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix) above. Prior to making any withdrawal
from the Certificate Account pursuant to subclause (iv), the Master Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer
indicating the amount of any previous Advance determined by the Master
Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance and identifying the related Mortgage
Loan(s), and their respective portions of such Nonrecoverable Advance.

            (b) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Distribution Account
for distribution to the Certificateholders and remittance to the Swap Account
in the manner specified in this Agreement (and to withhold from the amounts so
withdrawn, the amount of any taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant to
the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.11). In addition, the



                                      97
<PAGE>

Trustee may from time to time make withdrawals from the Distribution Account
for the following purposes:

                  (i) to pay the Trustee the Trustee Fee on each Distribution
            Date;

                  (ii) to pay to the Master Servicer, as additional servicing
            compensation, earnings on or investment income with respect to
            funds in or credited to the Distribution Account;

                  (iii) to withdraw pursuant to Section 3.05 any amount
            deposited in the Distribution Account and not required to be
            deposited therein;

                  (iv) to reimburse the Trustee for any unreimbursed Advances
            made by it pursuant to Section 4.01(d) hereof, such right of
            reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (iv) being limited to (x)
            amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of
            which any such Advance was made and (y) amounts not otherwise
            reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(ii) hereof;

                  (v) to reimburse the Trustee for any Nonrecoverable Advance
            previously made by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(d) hereof,
            such right of reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (v) being
            limited to amounts not otherwise reimbursed to the Trustee
            pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(iv) hereof;

                  (vi) to pay to the Co-Trustee, for payment to the Mortgage
            Insurer as provided below, the Mortgage Insurance Premium; and

                  (vii) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account upon
            termination of the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.

            The Co-Trustee shall pay the applicable Mortgage Insurance Premium
to the Mortgage Insurer in accordance with the following wiring instructions:

            (c) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Carryover Reserve
Fund for distribution to the Certificateholders in the manner specified in
this Agreement (and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of
any taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant to the penultimate
paragraph of Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time to time

            Section 3.09 [Reserved].

            Section 3.10 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

            The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each
Mortgage Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount that is at
least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the
improvements securing such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the greater of (a) the
outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that
the proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to prevent the related
Mortgagor and/or mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. Each such policy of
standard hazard insurance shall contain, or have an accompanying endorsement
that contains, a standard mortgagee clause. The Master Servicer shall also
cause flood insurance to be maintained on property acquired upon foreclosure
or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, to the extent described
below. Pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof, any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer under any such policies (other than the amounts to be applied to the
restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or property thus
acquired or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Master
Servicer's normal servicing procedures) shall be deposited in the Certificate
Account. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such
insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to
the Certificateholders or remittances to the Trustee for their benefit, be
added to the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the
terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the
Master Servicer out of late payments by the related Mortgagor or out of
Liquidation Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries to the extent permitted by
Section 3.08 hereof. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other
additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on
property acquired in respect of a Mortgage other than pursuant to such
applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall
require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property is located at the
time of origination of the Mortgage Loan in a federally designated special
flood hazard area and such area is participating in the national flood
insurance program, the Master Servicer shall cause flood insurance to be
maintained with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Such flood insurance shall be
in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the original principal balance of the
related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the replacement value of the improvements that are
part of such Mortgaged Property, or (iii) the maximum amount of such insurance
available for the related Mortgaged Property under the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, as amended. If the hazard policy contains a deductible
clause, the Master Servicer will be required to deposit from its own funds
into the Certificate Account the amounts that would have been deposited
therein but for the deductible clause.

            Section 3.11 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption
                         Agreements.

            (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.11(a), when any
property subject to a Mortgage has been or is about to be conveyed by the
Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall to the extent that it has knowledge of
such conveyance, enforce any due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note
or Mortgage, to the extent permitted under applicable law and governmental
regulations, but only to the extent that such enforcement will not adversely
affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required Insurance Policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer is not required to exercise
such rights with respect to a Mortgage Loan if the Person to whom the related
Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be



                                      99
<PAGE>

conveyed satisfies the terms and conditions contained in the Mortgage Note and
Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the mortgagee under such Mortgage
Note or Mortgage is not otherwise so required under such Mortgage Note or
Mortgage as a condition to such transfer. In the event that the Master
Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any such due-on-sale clause, or
if coverage under any Required Insurance Policy would be adversely affected,
or if nonenforcement is otherwise permitted hereunder, the Master Servicer is
authorized, subject to Section 3.11(b), to take or enter into an assumption
and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has
been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable
under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable state law, the
Mortgagor remains liable thereon, provided that the Mortgage Loan shall
continue to be covered (if so covered before the Master Servicer enters such
agreement) by the applicable Required Insurance Policies. The Master Servicer,
subject to Section 3.11(b), is also authorized with the prior approval of the
insurers under any Required Insurance Policies to enter into a substitution of
liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor
is released from liability and such Person is substituted as Mortgagor and
becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. The Master Servicer shall notify the
Trustee that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has
been completed by forwarding to the Co-Trustee the executed original of such
substitution or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the
related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of
such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments
constituting a part thereof.

            (b) Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any
due-on-sale clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.11(a) hereof, in any
case in which a Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a
Mortgagor, and such Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or
modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that
requires the signature of the Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed
by the Trustee is required releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver or cause to be
prepared and delivered to the Trustee for signature and shall direct, in
writing, the Trustee to execute the assumption agreement with the Person to
whom the Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and such modification agreement
or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or other instruments as are
reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws regarding assumptions
or the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such Person. In connection with
any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including, but not
limited to, the Mortgage Rate, the amount of the Scheduled Payment, the
Maximum Mortgage Rate, the Minimum Mortgage Rate, the Gross Margin, the
Initial Periodic Rate Cap, the Subsequent Periodic Rate Cap, the Adjustment
Date and any other term affecting the amount or timing of payment on the
Mortgage Loan) may be changed. In addition, the substitute Mortgagor and the
Mortgaged Property must be acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance
with its underwriting standards as then in effect. The Master Servicer shall
notify the Trustee that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been
completed by forwarding to the Trustee the original of such substitution or
assumption agreement, which in the case of the original shall be added to the
related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of
such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments
constituting a part thereof. Any fee collected by the Master Servicer for
entering into an assumption or substitution of liability agreement will be
retained by the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

            Section 3.12 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans;
                         Determination of Excess Proceeds and Realized Losses;
                         Repurchase of Certain Mortgage Loans.

            (a) The Master Servicer may agree to a modification of any
Mortgage Loan (the "Modified Mortgage Loan") if (i) CHL purchases the Modified
Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund immediately following the modification as
described below and (ii) the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan,
when taken together with the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balances of all
other Mortgage Loans in the same Loan Group that have been so modified since
the Closing Date at the time of those modifications, does not exceed an amount
equal to 5% of the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the related
Certificates. Effective immediately after the modification, and, in any event,
on the same Business Day on which the modification occurs, all interest of the
Trustee in the Modified Mortgage Loan shall automatically be deemed
transferred and assigned to CHL and all benefits and burdens of ownership
thereof, including the right to accrued interest thereon from the date of
modification and the risk of default thereon, shall pass to CHL. The Master
Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee a certification of a Servicing
Officer to the effect that all requirements of this paragraph have been
satisfied with respect to the Modified Mortgage Loan. For federal income tax
purposes, the Trustee shall account for such purchase as a prepayment in full
of the Modified Mortgage Loan. CHL shall remit the Purchase Price to the
Master Servicer for deposit into the Certificate Account pursuant to Section
3.05 within one Business Day after the purchase of the Modified Mortgage Loan.
Upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of any such deposit signed
by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall release to CHL or its designee the
related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of
transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary
to vest in CHL any Modified Mortgage Loan previously transferred and assigned
pursuant hereto. CHL covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund against
any liability for any "prohibited transaction" taxes and any related interest,
additions, and penalties imposed on the Trust Fund established hereunder as a
result of any modification of a Mortgage Loan effected pursuant to this
subsection (a), any holding of a Modified Mortgage Loan by the Trust Fund or
any purchase of a Modified Mortgage Loan by CHL (but such obligation shall not
prevent CHL or any other appropriate Person from in good faith contesting any
such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the CHL from
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
such proceedings). CHL shall have no right of reimbursement for any amount
paid pursuant to the foregoing indemnification, except to the extent that the
amount of any tax, interest, and penalties, together with interest thereon, is
refunded to the Trust Fund or the CHL. If the Master Servicer agrees to a
modification of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.12(a), and if
such Mortgage Loan carries a Prepayment Charge provision, CHL shall deliver to
the Trustee the amount of the Prepayment Charge, if any, that would have been
due had such Mortgage Loan been prepaid at the time of such modification, for
deposit into the Certificate Account (not later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on
the Master Servicer Advance Date immediately succeeding the date of such
modification) for distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

            (b) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose
upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such
of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.
In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion,



                                     101
<PAGE>

the Master Servicer shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall
deem necessary or advisable and as shall be normal and usual in its general
mortgage servicing activities and the requirements of the insurer under any
Required Insurance Policy; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be
required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards
the restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that such
restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that
such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds
(respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the
Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof). The Master Servicer
shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any
such proceedings; provided that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof
from the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgaged Property and any
related Subsequent Recoveries, as contemplated in Section 3.08 hereof. If the
Master Servicer has knowledge that a Mortgaged Property that the Master
Servicer is contemplating acquiring in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of
foreclosure is located within a one-mile radius of any site with environmental
or hazardous waste risks known to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer
will, prior to acquiring the Mortgaged Property, consider such risks and only
take action in accordance with its established environmental review
procedures.

            With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale
shall be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders (or the Trustee's nominee on behalf of the
Certificateholders). The Trustee's name shall be placed on the title to such
REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder and not in its individual
capacity. The Master Servicer shall ensure that the title to such REO Property
references this Agreement and the Trustee's capacity thereunder. Pursuant to
its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall either itself
or through an agent selected by the Master Servicer protect and conserve such
REO Property in the same manner and to such extent as is customary in the
locality where such REO Property is located and may, incident to its
conservation and protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, rent
the same, or any part thereof, as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best
interest of the Master Servicer and the Certificateholders for the period
prior to the sale of such REO Property. The Master Servicer shall prepare for
and deliver to the Trustee a statement with respect to each REO Property that
has been rented showing the aggregate rental income received and all expenses
incurred in connection with the management and maintenance of such REO
Property at such times as is necessary to enable the Trustee to comply with
the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The net monthly rental
income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in the Certificate
Account no later than the close of business on each Determination Date. The
Master Servicer shall perform the tax reporting and withholding related to
foreclosures, abandonments and cancellation of indebtedness income as
specified by Sections 1445, 6050J and 6050P of the Code by preparing and
filing such tax and information returns, as may be required.

            In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property
as aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on
a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property
as soon as practicable in a manner that maximizes the Liquidation Proceeds,
but in no event later than three years after its acquisition by the Trust Fund
or, at the expense of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall request, more
than 60 days prior to the day on which such three-year period would otherwise
expire, an extension of the three-year grace period. In the event the Trustee
shall have been supplied with an Opinion of



                                     102
<PAGE>

Counsel (such opinion not to be an expense of the Trustee) to the effect that
the holding by the Trust Fund of such Mortgaged Property subsequent to such
three-year period will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited
transactions" of the Trust Fund as defined in section 860F of the Code or
cause any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding, and the Trust Fund may continue to hold
such Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion
of Counsel) after the expiration of such three-year period. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the
Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise
used for the production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a
manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property
to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of section
860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject the Trust Fund to the imposition of any
federal, state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged
Property under section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Master
Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect
to the imposition of any such taxes.

            The decision of the Master Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted
Mortgage Loan shall be subject to a determination by the Master Servicer that
the proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of
bringing such a proceeding. The income earned from the management of any
Mortgaged Properties acquired through foreclosure or other judicial
proceeding, net of reimbursement to the Master Servicer for expenses incurred
(including any property or other taxes) in connection with such management and
net of unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Advances, Servicing Advances and any
management fee paid or to be paid with respect to the management of such
Mortgaged Property, shall be applied to the payment of principal of, and
interest on, the related defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing as
though such Mortgage Loans were still current) and all such income shall be
deemed, for all purposes in this Agreement, to be payments on account of
principal and interest on the related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited
into the Certificate Account. To the extent the income received during a
Prepayment Period is in excess of the amount attributable to amortizing
principal and accrued interest at the related Mortgage Rate on the related
Mortgage Loan, such excess shall be considered to be a partial Principal
Prepayment for all purposes hereof.

            The Liquidation Proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan
and any Subsequent Recoveries, net of any payment to the Master Servicer as
provided above, shall be deposited in the Certificate Account as provided in
Section 3.05 for distribution on the related Distribution Date, except that
any Excess Proceeds shall be retained by the Master Servicer as additional
servicing compensation.

            The proceeds of any Liquidated Mortgage Loan, as well as any
recovery resulting from a partial collection of Liquidation Proceeds or any
income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of
priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer for any related unreimbursed
Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees, pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(vi) or this
Section 3.12; second, to reimburse the Master Servicer for any unreimbursed
Advances, pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(ii) or this Section 3.12; third, to
accrued and unpaid interest (to the extent no Advance has been made for such
amount) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, at the Net Mortgage Rate
to the Due Date occurring in the month in which such amounts are required to
be distributed; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan.



                                     103
<PAGE>

            (c) [Reserved].

            (d) The Master Servicer, in its sole discretion, shall have the
right to elect (by written notice sent to the Trustee) to purchase for its own
account from the Trust Fund any Mortgage Loan that is 150 days or more
delinquent at a price equal to the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the
Master Servicer may only exercise this right on or before the last day of the
calendar month in which such Mortgage Loan became 150 days delinquent (such
month, the "Eligible Repurchase Month"); provided further, that any such
Mortgage Loan which becomes current but thereafter becomes delinquent may be
purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section in any ensuing
Eligible Repurchase Month. The Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan purchased
hereunder shall be deposited in the Certificate Account. Any purchase of a
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.12(d) shall be accomplished by
remittance to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Certificate Account of
the Purchase Price. The Trustee, upon receipt of certification from the Master
Servicer of such deposit and a Request for File Release from the Master
Servicer, shall release or cause to be released to the purchaser of such
Mortgage Loan the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the purchaser of such
Mortgage Loan, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in
the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto
and the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan shall succeed to all the Trustee's
right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan and all security and
documents related thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and
not for security. The purchaser of such Mortgage Loan shall thereupon own such
Mortgage Loan, and all security and documents, free of any further obligation
to the Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect thereto.

            Section 3.13 Co-Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

            Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by
the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in
a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will promptly notify
the Co-Trustee by delivering a Request for File Release. Upon receipt of such
request, the Co-Trustee shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to
the Master Servicer, and the Co-Trustee shall at the Master Servicer's
direction execute and deliver to the Master Servicer the request for
reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or
such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by
the Master Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of
cancellation thereon. The Master Servicer is authorized to cause the removal
from the registration on the MERS(R) System of such Mortgage and to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders or any of
them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or
full release. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of
satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Certificate
Account, the Distribution Account, the Carryover Reserve Fund or the related
subservicing account. From time to time and as shall be appropriate for the
servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including for such purpose,
collection under any policy of flood insurance any fidelity bond or errors or
omissions policy, or for the purposes of effecting a partial release of any
Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage or the making of any
corrections to the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or any of the other documents
included in the Mortgage File, the Co-Trustee shall, upon delivery to the
Co-Trustee of a Request for Document Release or a Request for File



                                     104
<PAGE>

Release, as applicable, release the documents specified in such request or the
Mortgage File, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer. Subject to the
further limitations set forth below, the Master Servicer shall cause the
Mortgage File or documents so released to be returned to the Co-Trustee when
the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage
Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in the Certificate
Account, in which case the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Co-Trustee a
Request for File Release for any remaining documents in the Mortgage File not
in the possession of the Master Servicer.

            If the Master Servicer at any time seeks to initiate a foreclosure
proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged Property as authorized by this
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee, for signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for
trustee's sale or other documents necessary to effectuate such foreclosure or
any legal action brought to obtain judgment against the Mortgagor on the
Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce
any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or
otherwise available at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Master Servicer shall cause possession of any Mortgage File or of the
documents therein that shall have been released by the Co-Trustee to be
returned to the Co-Trustee within 21 calendar days after possession thereof
shall have been released by the Co-Trustee unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has
been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan
have been deposited in the Certificate Account, and the Master Servicer shall
have delivered to the Co-Trustee a Request for File Release or (ii) the
Mortgage File or document shall have been delivered to an attorney or to a
public trustee or other public official as required by law for purposes of
initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure
of the Mortgaged Property and the Master Servicer shall have delivered to the
Trustee an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the
name and address of the Person to which the Mortgage File or the documents
therein were delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.

            Section 3.14 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master
                         Servicer to be Held for the Trustee.

            Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer shall transmit to the Co-Trustee as required by this Agreement all
documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the
possession of the Master Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to
the Trustee for any funds received by the Master Servicer or that otherwise
are collected by the Master Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries in respect of any Mortgage Loan. All
Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the
Master Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection
of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds or Subsequent
Recoveries including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in the
Certificate Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of
the Trust Fund and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the
Trust Fund, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement. The Master
Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any Mortgage
File or any funds that are deposited in the Certificate Account, the
Distribution Account, the Carryover Reserve Fund or in any Escrow Account (as
defined in Section 3.06), or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or
payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to any
claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of



                                     105

attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by legal action or otherwise any
claim or right of set off against any Mortgage File or any funds collected on,
or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except, however, that the Master
Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any such funds
any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer under
this Agreement.

            Section 3.15 Servicing Compensation.

            As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to retain or withdraw from the Certificate Account out of
each payment of interest on a Mortgage Loan included in the Trust Fund an
amount equal to interest at the applicable Servicing Fee Rate on the Stated
Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan for the period covered by such
interest payment.

            Additional servicing compensation in the form of any Excess
Proceeds, assumption fees, late payment charges, Prepayment Interest Excess,
and all income and gain net of any losses realized from Permitted Investments
shall be retained by the Master Servicer to the extent not required to be
deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.05 or 3.12(b)
hereof. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by
it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including payment of
any premiums for hazard insurance, as required by Section 3.10 hereof and
maintenance of the other forms of insurance coverage required by Section 3.10
hereof) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as
specifically provided in Sections 3.08 and 3.12 hereof.

            Section 3.16 Access to Certain Documentation.

            The Master Servicer shall provide to the OTS and the FDIC and to
comparable regulatory authorities supervising Holders of the Certificates and
Certificate Owners and the examiners and supervisory agents of the OTS, the
FDIC and such other authorities, access to the documentation regarding the
Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations of the OTS and the FDIC.
Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable and
prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the
Master Servicer designated by it. Nothing in this Section shall limit the
obligation of the Master Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting
disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of the
Master Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of
such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

            Section 3.17 Annual Statement as to Compliance.

            The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee
on or before the 80th day after the end of the Master Servicer's fiscal year,
commencing with its 2005 fiscal year, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to
the signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Master Servicer
during the preceding calendar year and of the performance of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision
and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the
Master Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement
throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of
any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and
the



                                     106
<PAGE>

nature and status thereof and (iii) to the best of such officer's knowledge,
each Subservicer has fulfilled all its obligations under its Subservicing
Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such obligation specifying each such default known to such
officer and the nature and status thereof. The Trustee shall forward a copy of
each such statement to each Rating Agency. Copies of such statement shall be
provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner upon
request at the Master Servicer's expense, provided such statement is delivered
by the Master Servicer to the Trustee.

            On or before the later of (i) the 80th day after the end of the
Master Servicer's fiscal year, commencing with its 2005 fiscal year or (ii)
within 30 days of the issuance of the annual audited financial statements
beginning with the audit for the period ending in 2005, the Master Servicer at
its expense shall cause a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants (who may also render other services to the Master Servicer, CHL or
any affiliate thereof) that is a member of the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants to furnish a report to the Trustee, the Depositor and CHL
in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers. Copies of such report shall be provided by the Trustee to any
Certificateholder or Certificate Owner upon request at the Master Servicer's
expense, provided such report is delivered by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee. Upon written request, the Master Servicer shall provide to the
Certificateholders or Certificate Owners its publicly available annual
financial statements (or the Master Servicer's parent company's publicly
available annual financial statements, as applicable), if any, promptly after
they become available.

            Section 3.19 [Reserved].

            Section 3.20 Prepayment Charges.

            (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in
the event of a Principal Prepayment in full or in part of a Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer may not waive any Prepayment Charge or portion thereof
required by the terms of the related Mortgage Note unless (i) such Mortgage
Loan is in default or the Master Servicer believes that such a default is
imminent, and the Master Servicer determines that such waiver would maximize
recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Mortgage Loan, taking into account
the value of such Prepayment Charge, or (ii) (A) the enforceability thereof is
limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or other
similar law relating to creditors' rights generally or (2) due to acceleration
in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (B) the
enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law. In the
event of a Principal Prepayment in full or in part with respect to any
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer's
Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit T no later than the third
Business Day following the immediately succeeding Determination Date with a
copy to the Class P Certificateholders. If the Master Servicer has waived or
does not collect all or a portion of a Prepayment Charge relating to a
Principal Prepayment in full or in part due to any action or omission of the
Master Servicer, other than as provided above, the Master Servicer shall
deliver to the Trustee, together with the Principal Prepayment in full or in
part, the amount of such Prepayment Charge (or such portion thereof as had
been waived) for deposit into the



                                     107
<PAGE>

Certificate Account (not later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on the immediately
succeeding Master Servicer Advance Date, in the case of such Prepayment
Charge) for distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

            (b) Upon discovery by the Master Servicer or a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee of a breach of the foregoing subsection (a), the party
discovering the breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties.

            (c) CHL represents and warrants to the Depositor and the Trustee,
as of the Closing Date and each Subsequent Transfer Date, that the information
in the Prepayment Charge Schedule (including the attached prepayment charge
summary) is complete and accurate in all material respects at the dates as of
which the information is furnished and each Prepayment Charge is permissible
and enforceable in accordance with its terms under applicable state law,
except as the enforceability thereof is limited due to acceleration in
connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment.

            (d) Upon discovery by the Master Servicer or a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee of a breach of the foregoing clause (c) that materially and
adversely affects right of the Holders of the Class P Certificates to any
Prepayment Charge, the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties. Within 60 days of the earlier of discovery by the
Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of breach, the
Master Servicer shall cure the breach in all material respects or shall pay
into the Certificate Account the amount of the Prepayment Charge that would
otherwise be due from the Mortgagor, less any amount representing such
Prepayment Charge previously collected and paid by the Master Servicer into
the Certificate Account.

            Section 3.21 Swap Contract.

            CHL shall cause The Bank of New York to enter into the Swap
Contract Administration Agreement and shall assign all of its right, title and
interest in and to the interest rate swap transaction evidenced by the Swap
Contract to, and shall cause all of its obligations in respect of such
transaction to be assumed by, the Swap Contract Administrator, on the terms
and conditions set forth in the Swap Contract Assignment Agreement. The
Trustee's rights to receive certain proceeds of the Swap Contract as provided
in the Swap Contract Administration Agreement shall be rights of the Trustee
as Swap Trustee hereunder, shall be an asset of the Swap Trust and shall not
be an asset of the Trust Fund nor of any REMIC. The Swap Trustee shall deposit
any amounts received from time to time from the Swap Contract Administrator
with respect to the Swap Contract into the Swap Account. The Master Servicer
shall deposit any amounts received on behalf of the Swap Trustee from time to
time with respect to the Swap Contract into the Swap Account.

            On the Business Day preceding each Distribution Date, the Swap
Trustee shall notify the Swap Contract Administrator of any amounts
distributable to the Interest-Bearing Certificates pursuant to Section
4.04(d)(3) through (8) that will remain unpaid following all distributions to
be made on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.04(a) through (c).



                                     108
<PAGE>

            No later than two Business Days following each Distribution Date,
the Trustee shall provide the Swap Contract Administrator with information
regarding the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Interest-Bearing
Certificates after all distributions on such Distribution Date.

            Upon the Swap Contract Administrator obtaining actual knowledge of
the rating of the Swap Counterparty falling below the Approved Rating
Thresholds (as defined in the Swap Contract), the Swap Trustee shall direct
the Swap Contract Administrator to demand payment of the Delivery Amount (as
defined in the ISDA Credit Support Annex). If a Delivery Amount is demanded,
the Swap Trustee shall set up an account in accordance with Section 4.09 to
hold cash or other eligible investments pledged under the ISDA Credit Support
Annex. Any cash or other eligible investments pledged under the ISDA Credit
Support Annex shall not be part of the Distribution Account or the Swap
Account unless they are applied in accordance with the ISDA Credit Support
Annex to make a payment due to the Swap Contract Administrator pursuant to the
Swap Contract.

            Upon the Swap Trustee obtaining actual knowledge of a Failure to
Pay or Deliver (as defined in the Swap Contract), the Swap Trustee shall
direct the Swap Contract Administrator to demand payment under the Swap
Guarantee.

            Upon the Swap Trustee obtaining actual knowledge of an Event of
Default (as defined in the Swap Contract) or Termination Event (as defined in
the Swap Contract) for which the Swap Contract Administrator has the right to
designate an Early Termination Date (as defined in the Swap Contract), the
Swap Trustee shall act at the written direction of the Depositor as to whether
to direct the Swap Contract Administrator to designate an Early Termination
Date; provided, however, that the Swap Trustee shall provide written notice to
each Rating Agency following the Event of Default or Termination Event. Upon
the termination of the Swap Contract under the circumstances contemplated by
this Section 3.21, the Swap Trustee shall use its reasonable best efforts to
enforce the rights of the Swap Contract Administrator as may be permitted by
the terms of the Swap Contract and consistent with the terms hereof, and CHL
shall assist the Swap Contract Administrator in procuring a replacement swap
contract with terms approximating those of the original Swap Contract.

            In the event that the swap counterparty in respect of a
replacement swap contract pays any upfront amount to the Swap Contract
Administrator in connection with entering into the replacement swap contract,
the Swap Trustee shall notify the Swap Contract Administrator of the amount of
Interest Funds for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 and the Principal
Distribution Amounts for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 that were used on prior
Distribution Dates to cover any Swap Termination Payment due to the Swap
Counterparty under the original Swap Contract, and any portion of such upfront
amount paid by a swap counterparty in respect of a replacement swap contract
that is remitted by the Swap Contract Administrator to the Swap Trustee shall
be included in Interest Funds for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 and the
Principal Distribution Amounts for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 on the next
Distribution Date to the extent, and in the respective amounts, that such
Interest Funds for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 and Principal Distribution
Amounts for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 were used on prior Distribution
Dates to cover any Swap Termination Payment due to the Swap Counterparty under
the original Swap Contract.

<PAGE>

            Any portion of any Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment
payable by the Swap Counterparty and not remitted by the Swap Contract
Administrator to the Swap Trustee with respect to any Distribution Date will
be remitted to CHL and will not be available to make distributions in respect
of any Class of Certificates.

            The Swap Counterparty shall be an express third party beneficiary
of this Agreement for the purpose of enforcing the provisions hereof to the
extent of the Swap Counterparty's rights explicitly specified herein as if a
party hereto.

                                 ARTICLE IV.
               DISTRIBUTIONS AND ADVANCES BY THE MASTER SERVICER

            Section 4.01 Advances; Remittance Reports.

            (a) Within two Business Days after each Determination Date, the
Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee by facsimile or electronic mail
(or by such other means as the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as the case
may be, may agree from time to time) a Remittance Report with respect to the
related Distribution Date. The Trustee shall not be responsible to recompute,
recalculate or verify any information provided to it by the Master Servicer.

            (b) Subject to the conditions of this Article IV, the Master
Servicer, as required below, shall make an Advance and deposit such Advance in
the Certificate Account. Each such Advance shall be remitted to the
Certificate Account no later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Master
Servicer Advance Date in immediately available funds. The Trustee will provide
notice to the Master Servicer by facsimile by the close of business on any
Master Servicer Advance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the
Master Servicer to the Trustee on the Distribution Account Deposit Date is
less than the Advances required to be made by the Master Servicer for such
Distribution Date. The Master Servicer shall be obligated to make any such
Advance only to the extent that such advance would not be a Nonrecoverable
Advance. If the Master Servicer shall have determined that it has made a
Nonrecoverable Advance or that a proposed Advance or a lesser portion of such
Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall
deliver (i) to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders funds
constituting the remaining portion of such Advance, if applicable, and (ii) to
the Depositor, each Rating Agency and the Trustee an Officer's Certificate
setting forth the basis for such determination.

            (c) In lieu of making all or a portion of such Advance from its
own funds, the Master Servicer may (i) cause to be made an appropriate entry
in its records relating to the Certificate Account that any Amount Held for
Future Distributions has been used by the Master Servicer in discharge of its
obligation to make any such Advance and (ii) transfer such funds from the
Certificate Account to the Distribution Account. Any funds so applied and
transferred shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the
Certificate Account no later than the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which such funds are required
to be distributed pursuant to this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall be
entitled to be reimbursed from the Certificate Account for all Advances of its
own funds made pursuant to this Section as provided in Section 3.08. The
obligation to make Advances with



                                     110
<PAGE>

respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue until such Mortgage Loan is paid
in full or becomes a Liquidated Mortgage Loan or until the purchase or
repurchase thereof (or substitution therefor) from the Trustee pursuant to any
applicable provision of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this
Section 4.01.

            (d) If the Master Servicer determines that it will be unable to
comply with its obligation to make the Advances as and when described in
paragraphs (b) and (c) immediately above, it shall use its best efforts to
give written notice thereof to the Trustee (each such notice a "Trustee
Advance Notice"; and such notice may be given by facsimile), not later than
3:00 p.m., New York time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the
related Master Servicer Advance Date, specifying the amount that it will be
unable to deposit (each such amount an "Advance Deficiency") and certifying
that such Advance Deficiency constitutes an Advance hereunder and is not a
Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Trustee receives a Trustee Advance Notice on or
before 3:30 p.m., (New York time) on a Master Servicer Advance Date, the
Trustee shall, not later than 3:00 p.m., (New York time), on the related
Distribution Date, deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the
Advance Deficiency identified in such Trustee Advance Notice unless it is
prohibited from so doing by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Trustee shall not be required to make such deposit if the Trustee shall have
received written notification from the Master Servicer that the Master
Servicer has deposited or caused to be deposited in the Certificate Account an
amount equal to such Advance Deficiency. All Advances made by the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 4.01(d) shall accrue interest on behalf of the
Trustee at the Trustee Advance Rate from and including the date such Advances
are made to but excluding the date of repayment, with such interest being an
obligation of the Master Servicer and not the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer
shall reimburse the Trustee for the amount of any Advance made by the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 4.01(d) together with accrued interest, not later
than 6:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day following the related
Distribution Date. In the event that the Master Servicer does not reimburse
the Trustee in accordance with the requirements of the preceding sentence, the
Trustee shall immediately (i) terminate all of the rights and obligations of
the Master Servicer under this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01 and
(ii) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.04, assume all of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.

            (e) The Master Servicer shall, not later than the close of
business on the second Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution
Date, deliver to the Trustee a report (in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee) that indicates (i) the Mortgage Loans with
respect to which the Master Servicer has determined that the related Scheduled
Payments should be advanced and (ii) the amount of the related Scheduled
Payments. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee on the related
Master Servicer Advance Date an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer
indicating the amount of any proposed Advance determined by the Master
Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance.

            Section 4.02 Reduction of Servicing Compensation in Connection
                         with Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.

            In the event that any Mortgage Loan is the subject of a Prepayment
Interest Shortfall, the Master Servicer shall remit any related Compensating
Interest as part of the related Interest Remittance Amount as provided in this
Agreement. The Master Servicer shall not be



                                     111
<PAGE>

entitled to any recovery or reimbursement for Compensating Interest from the
Depositor, the Trustee, any Seller, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders.

            Section 4.03 [Reserved].

            Section 4.04 Distributions.

            pay any Current Interest and Interest Carry Forward Amount for
            each such Class; provided that Interest Funds remaining after such
            allocation to pay any Current Interest and Interest Carry Forward
            Amount based on the Certificate Principal Balances of the
            Certificates will be distributed to each Class of Class A
            Certificates with respect to which there remains any unpaid

            distribution based on Certificate Principal Balances), pro rata,

<PAGE>

            On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit all Credit
Comeback Excess Amounts in the Credit Comeback Excess Account. The Trustee
shall make withdrawals from the Credit Comeback Excess Account to make
distributions as and to the extent required by Section 4.04.

            Funds in the Credit Comeback Excess Account with respect to Loan
Group 1 and Loan Group 2 may be invested in Permitted Investments at the
written direction of the Majority Holder of the Class C Certificates, which
Permitted Investments shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the first Distribution Date that follows the date of such investment
(except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution
that maintains the Credit Comeback Excess Account, then such Permitted
Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date) and shall not
be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall
be made in the name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders.
In the absence of such written direction, all funds in the Credit Comeback
Excess Account shall be invested by the Trustee in The Bank of New York cash
reserves. Any net investment earnings on amounts in the Credit Comeback Excess
Account with respect to Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 shall be payable pro
rata to the Holders of the Class C Certificates in accordance with their
Percentage Interests. Any losses incurred in the Credit Comeback Excess
Account in respect of any such investments shall be charged against amounts on

REMIC created hereunder. The Class C Certificates shall evidence ownership of
the Credit Comeback Excess Account for federal tax purposes.

            On the Closing Date, there is hereby established a separate trust
(the "Swap Trust"), the assets of which shall consist of the Trustee's rights
and obligations under the Swap Contract Administration Agreement. The Swap
Trust shall be maintained by the Swap Trustee, who initially, shall be the
Trustee. The Swap Trustee shall hold the assets of the Swap Trust in trust for
the benefit of the Holders of the Interest-Bearing Certificates and the Swap
Counterparty. No later than the Closing Date, the Swap Trustee shall establish
and maintain a separate, segregated trust account to be held in the Swap
Trust, titled, "Swap Account, The Bank of New York, as Swap Trustee, in trust
for the Swap Counterparty and the registered holders of CWABS, Inc.,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2005-AB5." Such account shall be an Eligible
Account and funds on deposit therein shall be held separate and apart from,
and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including, without
limitation, other moneys of the Trustee held pursuant to this Agreement.
Amounts therein shall be held uninvested. Funds on deposit in the Swap Account
shall be distributed in the amounts and in the order of priority described
under Section 4.04(d). For federal income tax purposes, the Swap Trust,
including the Swap Account, shall be owned by the Class C Certificates.



                                     123
<PAGE>

            On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make a deposit to the
Swap Account pursuant to Section 4.04(a)(i), and to the extent that the amount
of such deposit is insufficient to pay any Net Swap Payment and/or Swap
Termination Payment (other than a Swap Termination Payment due to a Swap
Counterparty Trigger Event) due to the Swap Counterparty with respect to such
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw, out of amounts on deposit in
the Distribution Account in respect of the Principal Remittance Amount for
Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2, pro rata on the basis of those respective
Principal Remittance Amounts, such additional amount as is necessary to cover
the remaining portion of any such Net Swap Payment and/or Swap Termination
Payment (other than a Swap Termination Payment due to a Swap Counterparty
Trigger Event) due to the Swap Counterparty with respect to such Distribution
Date.

(1) The Tax Matters Person Certificate may be issued in a denomination of $0.05.

            The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Certificates
bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the
time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the
Trustee shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any
of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and
delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such
authentication and delivery. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on
such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set
forth as attached hereto executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such
certificate of authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the
date of their authentication. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall
authenticate the Certificates to be issued at the written direction of the
Depositor, or any affiliate thereof.



                                     125
<PAGE>

            The Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the
Trustee on a continuous basis, an adequate inventory of Certificates to
facilitate transfers.

            Section 5.02 Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and
                         Exchange of Certificates.

            (a) The Trustee shall maintain a Certificate Register for the
Trust Fund in which, subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c)
below and to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee
shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of Transfers and
exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration
of Transfer of any Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new
Certificates of the same Class and of like aggregate Percentage Interest.

            At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be
exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations
and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the
Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Trustee. Whenever
any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute,
authenticate, and deliver the Certificates that the Certificateholder making
the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or
surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a
written instrument of Transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly
executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

            No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any
registration of Transfer or exchange of Certificates, but payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any Transfer or exchange of Certificates may be required.

            All Certificates surrendered for registration of Transfer or
exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee in
accordance with the Trustee's customary procedures.

            (b) No Transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such
Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the
registration requirements under the Securities Act and such state securities
laws. In the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption
from the Securities Act and such state securities laws, in order to assure
compliance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws, the
Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer and such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall (except in connection with
any transfer of a Private Certificate to an affiliate of the Depositor (either
directly or through a nominee) in connection with the initial issuance of the
Certificates) each certify to the Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the
Transfer in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit J-2 and, in the case
of a Class A-R Certificate, Exhibit J-1 (the "Transferor Certificate") and (i)
deliver a letter in substantially the form of either Exhibit K (in the case of
the Class P and Class C Certificates only) (the "Investment Letter") or
Exhibit L (in the case of any Private Certificate) (the "Rule 144A Letter") or
(ii) there shall be delivered to the Trustee at the expense of the
Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer an Opinion of Counsel that
such Transfer may



                                     126
<PAGE>

be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act; provided, however,
that in the case of the delivery of an Investment Letter in connection with
the transfer of any Class C or Class P Certificate to a transferee that is
formed with the purpose of issuing notes backed by such Class C or Class P
Certificate, as the case may be, clause (b) and (c) of the form of Investment
Letter shall not be applicable and shall be deleted by such transferee. The
Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a Private Certificate and any
prospective transferee designated by any such Holder, information regarding
the related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and such other information as
shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule
144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate without registration thereof
under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided by
Rule 144A. The Trustee, the Co-Trustee and the Master Servicer shall cooperate
with the Depositor in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in the
preceding sentence, including providing to the Depositor such information
regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the
Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably request to meet its obligation
under the preceding sentence. Each Holder of a Private Certificate desiring to
effect such Transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee,
the Co-Trustee, the Depositor, the Trust Fund, each Seller, the Master
Servicer and the NIM Insurer against any liability that may result if the
Transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws.

            No Transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate (other than a
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to an affiliate of the Depositor
(either directly or through a nominee) in connection with the initial issuance
of the Certificates) shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received
either (i) a representation from the transferee of such Certificate acceptable
to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee (in the event such
Certificate is a Private Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by
the Trustee's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee
substantially in the form of Exhibit K or Exhibit L, or in the event such
Certificate is a Residual Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by
the Trustee's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee
substantially in the form of Exhibit I), to the effect that (x) such
transferee is not a Plan, or (y) in the case of an ERISA-Restricted
Certificate that has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a
representation that the transferee is an insurance company which is purchasing
such Certificate with funds contained in an "insurance company general
account" (as such term is defined in section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction
Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTCE 95-60")) and that the purchase and holding of
such Certificate satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under Sections
I and III of PTCE 95-60 or (ii) in the case of any ERISA-Restricted
Certificate presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan
or arrangement subject to ERISA, or a plan or arrangement subject to Section
4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a
trustee of any such plan or arrangement or any other person acting on behalf
of any such plan or arrangement, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Trustee, addressed to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, to the effect that
the purchase or holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate will not result
in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code and will not
subject the Trustee or the Master Servicer to any obligation in addition to
those expressly undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall
not be an expense of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, or the Trust Fund. For
purposes of the preceding sentence, one of such representations, as
appropriate, shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee by the
transferee's acceptance of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate (or the acceptance
by a Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest in any such Class of
ERISA-Restricted Certificates) unless the



                                     127
<PAGE>

Trustee shall have received from the transferee an Opinion of Counsel as
described in clause (ii) or a representation letter acceptable in form and
substance to the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary
herein, any purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or on
behalf of an employee benefit plan subject to Section 406 of ERISA or a plan
subject to Section 4975 of the Code without the delivery to the Trustee of an
Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee meeting the requirements of
clause (i) of the first sentence of this paragraph as described above shall be
void and of no effect. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person
for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is
in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for making any payments due
on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with
respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the
Trustee, with respect to the transfer of such Classes of Certificates,
required delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as
are expressly required by the terms of this Agreement and examined such
certificates and other documentation or evidence to determine compliance as to
form with the express requirements hereof. The Trustee shall be entitled, but
not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate
that was in fact an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Section
406 of ERISA or a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a
Person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement at the time it became
a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became such a plan or arrangement
or Person acting on behalf of such a plan or arrangement, all payments made on
such ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and after either such time. Any such
payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the
Trustee to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is not such a
plan or arrangement or Person acting on behalf of a plan or arrangement.

            No transfer of an Interest-Bearing Certificate (other than a
transfer of an Interest-Bearing Certificate to an affiliate of the Depositor
(either directly or through a nominee) in connection with the initial issuance
of the Certificates) shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received
either (i) a representation from the transferee of such Interest-Bearing
Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee to the effect that such transferee is not a Plan, or (ii) a
representation that the purchase and holding of the Interest-Bearing
Certificate satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under PTCE 84-14,
PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38, PTCE 95-60, PTCE 96-23 or a similar exemption. In the
event that such a representation letter is not delivered, one of the foregoing
representations, as appropriate, shall be deemed to have been made by the
transferee's (including an initial acquiror's) acceptance of the
Interest-Bearing Certificate. In the event that such representation is
violated, such transfer or acquisition shall be void and of no effect.

            (c) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in
a Class A-R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of
such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following
provisions, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in
a Class A-R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:

                  (1) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest
      in a Class A-R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall
      promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its
      status as a Permitted Transferee.

                  (2) Except in connection with (i) the registration of the
      Tax Matters Person Certificate in the name of the Trustee or (ii) any
      registration in the name of, or transfer of a Class A-R Certificate to,
      an affiliate of the Depositor (either directly or through a nominee) in
      connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates, no Ownership
      Interest in a Class A-R Certificate may be registered or transferred,
      and the Trustee shall not register the Transfer of any Class A-R
      Certificate, unless the Trustee shall have been furnished with an
      affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial owner or the proposed
      transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I.

                  (3) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest
      in a Class A-R Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer
      Affidavit from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer
      its Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate, (B) to obtain a
      Transfer Affidavit from any Person for whom such Person is acting as
      nominee, trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer of a Class A-R
      Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class
      A-R Certificate, or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
      Class A-R Certificate to any other Person, if it has actual knowledge
      that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or that such Transfer
      Affidavit is false.

                  (4) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership
      Interest in a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the provisions of
      this Section 5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no
      rights in the purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall
      become a Holder of a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the
      provisions of this Section 5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted
      Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive
      to the date of registration of Transfer of such Class A-R Certificate.
      The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
      registration of Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is in fact not
      permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this Section 5.02(c) or for making any
      payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any
      other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this
      Agreement so long as the Transfer was registered after receipt of the
      related Transfer Affidavit and Transferor Certificate. The Trustee shall
      be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder of a Class A-R
      Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time it
      became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became other than a
      Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Class A-R Certificate at
      and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by the
      Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding
      Permitted Transferee of such Certificate.

                  (5) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to make
      available, upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, all
      information necessary to compute any tax imposed under section 860E(e)
      of the Code as a result of a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
      Class A-R Certificate to any Holder who is not a Permitted Transferee.

            The restrictions on Transfers of a Class A-R Certificate set forth
in this Section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of
the legend on a Class A-R Certificate may be deleted) with respect to
Transfers occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of



                                     129
<PAGE>

Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, any
Seller or the Master Servicer, to the effect that the elimination of such
restrictions will not cause any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result in the
imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another
Person. Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class A-R
Certificate, by acceptance of its Ownership Interest, shall be deemed to
consent to any amendment of this Agreement that, based on an Opinion of
Counsel furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that
the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Class A-R
Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that is
not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the
Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is held by a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.

            (d) The preparation and delivery of all affidavits, certifications
and opinions referred to above in this Section 5.02 shall not be an expense of
the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor, any Seller or the Master Servicer.

            Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

            If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or
the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Certificate and of the ownership thereof and (b) there is
delivered to the Master Servicer and the Trustee such security or indemnity as
may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of
notice to the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange
for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a
new Certificate of like Class, tenor and Percentage Interest. In connection
with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.03, the Trustee
may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.
Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall
constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund,
as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed
Certificate shall be found at any time. All Certificates surrendered to the
Trustee under the terms of this Section 5.03 shall be canceled and destroyed
by the Trustee in accordance with its standard procedures without liability on
its part.

            Section 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners.

            The Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIM Insurer and any agent of
the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIM Insurer may treat the person in
whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for
the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for
all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Master Servicer, the Trustee,
the NIM Insurer or any agent of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIM
Insurer shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

            Section 5.05 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and
                         Addresses.

            If three or more Certificateholders or Certificate Owners (a)
request such information in writing from the Trustee, (b) state that such
Certificateholders or Certificate Owners desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders or Certificate Owners with respect to their rights under
this Agreement or under the Certificates and (c) provide a copy of the
communication that such Certificateholders or Certificate Owners propose to
transmit or if the Depositor or Master Servicer shall request such information
in writing from the Trustee, then the Trustee shall, within ten Business Days
after the receipt of such request, provide the Depositor, the Master Servicer
or such Certificateholders or Certificate Owners at such recipients' expense
the most recent list of the Certificateholders of the Trust Fund held by the
Trustee, if any. The Depositor and every Certificateholder or Certificate
Owner, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agree that the Trustee shall
not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as
to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from
which such information was derived.

            Section 5.06 Book-Entry Certificates.

            The Book-Entry Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be
issued in the form of one typewritten Certificate (or more than one, if
required by the Depository) for each Class of such Certificates, to be
delivered to the Depository by or on behalf of the Depositor. Such
Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the
name of the Depository or its nominee, and no Certificate Owner of such
Certificates will receive a definitive certificate representing such
Certificate Owner's interest in such Certificates, except as provided in
Section 5.08. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Certificates
("Definitive Certificates") have been issued to the Certificate Owners of such
Certificates pursuant to Section 5.08:

            (a) the provisions of this Section shall be in full force and
effect;

            (b) the Depositor, the Sellers, the Master Servicer and the
Trustee may deal with the Depository and the Depository Participants for all
purposes (including the making of distributions) as the authorized
representative of the respective Certificate Owners of such Certificates;

            (c) registration of the Book-Entry Certificates may not be
transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository;

            (d) the rights of the respective Certificate Owners of such
Certificates shall be exercised only through the Depository and the Depository
Participants and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements
between the Owners of such Certificates and the Depository and/or the
Depository Participants. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement, unless and
until Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 5.08, the
Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants
and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the
related Certificates to such Depository Participants;

            (e) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees,
charges and expenses from its Depository Participants;



                                     131
<PAGE>

            (f) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying
upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository
Participants; and

            (g) to the extent the provisions of this Section conflict with any
other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall
control.

            For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or
permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of,
Certificateholders evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of any Class of Certificates, such direction or consent may
be given by Certificate Owners (acting through the Depository and the
Depository Participants) owning Book-Entry Certificates evidencing the
requisite percentage of principal amount of such Class of Certificates.

            Section 5.07 Notices to Depository.

            Whenever any notice or other communication is required to be given
to Certificateholders of the Class with respect to which Book-Entry
Certificates have been issued, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall
have been issued to the related Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall give all
such notices and communications to the Depository.

            Section 5.08 Definitive Certificates.

            If, after Book-Entry Certificates have been issued with respect to
any Certificates, (a) the Depositor advises the Trustee that the Depository is
no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities under the
Depository Agreement with respect to such Certificates and the Trustee or the
Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor or (b) after the
occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Certificate Owners of such
Book-Entry Certificates having not less than 51% of the Voting Rights
evidenced by any Class of Book-Entry Certificates advise the Trustee and the
Depository in writing through the Depository Participants that the
continuation of a book-entry system with respect to Certificates of such Class
through the Depository (or its successor) is no longer in the best interests
of the Certificate Owners of such Class, then the Trustee shall notify all
Certificate Owners of such Certificates, through the Depository, of the
occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive
Certificates to Certificate Owners of such Class requesting the same. The
Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an adequate inventory of Certificates
to facilitate the issuance and transfer of Definitive Certificates. Upon
surrender to the Trustee of any such Certificates by the Depository,
accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration,
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Definitive Certificates.
Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in
delivery of such instructions and each may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of such
Definitive Certificates, all references herein to obligations imposed upon or
to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such
Definitive Certificates and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of such
Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.

            Section 5.09 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

            The Trustee will maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense
an office or offices or agency or agencies in New York City where Certificates
may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Trustee
initially designates its offices at 101 Barclay Street, New York, New York
10286, Attention: Corporate Trust MBS Administration, as offices for such
purposes. The Trustee will give prompt written notice to the
Certificateholders of any change in such location of any such office or
agency.

              THE DEPOSITOR, THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE SELLERS

            Section 6.01 Respective Liabilities of the Depositor, the Master
                         Servicer and the Sellers.

            The Depositor, the Master Servicer and each Seller shall each be
liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations
specifically and respectively imposed upon and undertaken by them herein.

            Section 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor, the Master
                         Servicer or the Sellers.

            The Depositor will keep in full effect its existence, rights and
franchises as a corporation under the laws of the United States or under the
laws of one of the states thereof and will each obtain and preserve its
qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform
its duties under this Agreement. The Master Servicer will keep in effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a limited partnership under the laws of
the United States or under the laws of one of the states thereof and will
obtain and preserve its qualification or registration to do business as a
foreign partnership in each jurisdiction in which such qualification or
registration is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform
its duties under this Agreement.

            Any Person into which the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any
Seller may be merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger
or consolidation to which the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any Seller
shall be a party, or any person succeeding to the business of the Depositor,
the Master Servicer or any Seller, shall be the successor of the Depositor,
the Master Servicer or such Seller, as the case may be, hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided that
the successor or surviving Person to the Master Servicer shall be qualified to
service mortgage loans on behalf of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

            Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the
                         Sellers, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer and
                         Others.

            None of the Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer or the Master
Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the
Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer or the Master Servicer shall be under
any liability to the Trustee (except as provided in Section 8.05), the Trust
Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the
taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors
in judgment; provided that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the
Sellers, the Master Servicer or any such Person against any breach of
representations or warranties made by it herein or protect the Depositor, the
Sellers, the Master Servicer or any such Person from any liability that would
otherwise be imposed by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer,
the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer or the Master Servicer may rely in
good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The
Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer, the Master Servicer and any director,
officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer or
the Master Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless
against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any audit,
controversy or judicial proceeding relating to a governmental taxing authority
or any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than
any loss, liability or expense related to any specific Mortgage Loan or
Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be
otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. None of the Depositor, the
Sellers, the NIM Insurer or the Master Servicer shall be under any obligation
to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to
its respective duties hereunder and that in its opinion may involve it in any
expense or liability; provided that any of the Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM
Insurer or the Master Servicer may, in its discretion undertake any such
action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement
and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and interests of the Trustee
and the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and
costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be, expenses,
costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor, the Sellers, the
NIM Insurer and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed
therefor out of the Certificate Account as provided by Section 3.08 hereof.

            Section 6.04 Limitation on Resignation of Master Servicer.

            The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and
duties hereby imposed on it except (i) upon determination that its duties
hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or (ii) upon
appointment of a successor servicer that is reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee and the NIM Insurer and the written confirmation from each Rating
Agency (which confirmation shall be furnished to the Depositor, the Trustee
and the NIM Insurer) that such resignation will not cause such Rating Agency
to reduce the then-current rating of the Certificates. Any such determination
pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence permitting the resignation of
the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to



                                     134
<PAGE>

such effect delivered to the Trustee. No resignation of the Master Servicer
shall become effective until the Trustee shall have assumed the Master
Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities
arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this
Agreement.

            Section 6.05 Errors and Omissions Insurance; Fidelity Bonds.

            The Master Servicer shall, for so long as it acts as servicer
under this Agreement, obtain and maintain in force (a) a policy or policies of
insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations
as servicer hereunder, and (b) a fidelity bond in respect of its officers,
employees and agents. Each such policy or policies and bond shall, together,
comply with the requirements from time to time of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
for persons performing servicing for mortgage loans purchased by Fannie Mae
and Freddie Mac. In the event that any such policy or bond ceases to be in
effect, the Master Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a
comparable replacement policy or bond from an insurer or issuer, meeting the
requirements set forth above as of the date of such replacement.

            The Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the NIM Insurer
(upon such party's reasonable request) with copies of any such insurance
policies and fidelity bond. The Master Servicer shall be deemed to have
complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Master Servicer has such
errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such
insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to
the Master Servicer.

                                 ARTICLE VII.
                    DEFAULT; TERMINATION OF MASTER SERVICER

            Section 7.01 Events of Default.

            "Event of Default," wherever used herein, means any one of the
following events:

                  (1) any failure by the Master Servicer to deposit in the
      Certificate Account or the Distribution Account or remit to the Trustee
      any payment (excluding a payment required to be made under Section 4.01
      hereof) required to be made under the terms of this Agreement, which
      failure shall continue unremedied for five calendar days and, with
      respect to a payment required to be made under Section 4.01(b) or (c)
      hereof, for one Business Day, after the date on which written notice of
      such failure shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the
      Trustee, the NIM Insurer or the Depositor, or to the Trustee, the NIM
      Insurer and the Master Servicer by the Holders of Certificates
      evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights; or

                  (2) any failure by the Master Servicer to observe or perform
      in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the
      part of the Master Servicer contained in this Agreement or any
      representation or warranty shall prove to be untrue, which failure or
      breach shall continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date
      on which written notice of such failure shall have been given to the
      Master Servicer by the Trustee, the NIM Insurer or the Depositor, or to
      the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25%
      of the Voting Rights; provided that



                                     135
<PAGE>

      the sixty-day cure period shall not apply to the initial delivery of the
      Mortgage File for Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans nor the failure to
      repurchase or substitute in lieu thereof; or

                  (3) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
      authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a
      receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
      marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the
      winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered
      against the Master Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained
      in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days;
      or

                  (4) the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of
      a receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
      marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or
      relating to the Master Servicer or all or substantially all of the
      property of the Master Servicer; or

                  (5) the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability
      to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take
      advantage of, or commence a voluntary case under, any applicable
      insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit
      of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or

                  (6) the Master Servicer shall fail to reimburse in full the
      Trustee not later than 6:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day
      following the related Distribution Date for any Advance made by the
      Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(d) together with accrued and unpaid
      interest.

            If an Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every
such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the
Trustee shall, but only at the direction of either the NIM Insurer or the
Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights, by
notice in writing to the Master Servicer (with a copy to each Rating Agency),
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other
than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder. On or after the receipt by
the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the
Master Servicer hereunder, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or
otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee. The Trustee shall
thereupon make any Advance described in Section 4.01 hereof subject to Section
3.04 hereof. The Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise,
any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other
acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice
of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment
of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly
provided in such written notice, no such termination shall affect any
obligation of the Master Servicer to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article
VIII. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting
the termination of the Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of all
cash amounts which shall at the time be credited to



                                     136
<PAGE>

the Certificate Account, or thereafter be received with respect to the
Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of the
occurrence of an Event of Default.

            Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of a Master
Servicer hereunder, such Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of
any late collection of a Scheduled Payment on a Mortgage Loan that was due
prior to the notice terminating such Master Servicer's rights and obligations
as Master Servicer hereunder and received after such notice, that portion
thereof to which such Master Servicer would have been entitled pursuant to
Sections 3.08(a)(i) through (viii), and any other amounts payable to such
Master Servicer hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to the
termination of its activities hereunder.

            Section 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

            On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof, the Trustee shall, to the extent
provided in Section 3.04, be the successor to the Master Servicer in its
capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or
provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties
and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms
and provisions hereof and applicable law including the obligation to make
advances pursuant to Section 4.01. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall
be entitled to all fees, costs and expenses relating to the Mortgage Loans
that the Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer
had continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee
has become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section
7.01 hereof, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if
it is prohibited by applicable law from making Advances pursuant to Section
4.01 hereof or if it is otherwise unable to so act, (i) appoint any
established mortgage loan servicing institution reasonably acceptable to the
NIM Insurer (as evidenced by the prior written consent of the NIM Insurer), or
(ii) if it is unable for 60 days to appoint a successor servicer reasonably
acceptable to the NIM Insurer, petition a court of competent jurisdiction to
appoint any established mortgage loan servicing institution, the appointment
of which does not adversely affect the then-current rating of the Certificates
and the NIM Insurer guaranteed notes (without giving any effect to any policy
or guaranty provided by the NIM Insurer) by each Rating Agency as the
successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any
part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer
hereunder. Any successor Master Servicer shall be an institution that is a
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac approved seller/servicer in good standing, that has
been approved by the Mortgage Insurer if required, that has a net worth of at
least $15,000,000 and that is willing to service the Mortgage Loans and
executes and delivers to the Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting
such delegation and assignment, that contains an assumption by such Person of
the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of
the Master Servicer (other than liabilities and indemnities of the Master
Servicer under Section 6.03 hereof incurred prior to termination of the Master
Servicer under Section 7.01), with like effect as if originally named as a
party to this Agreement; and provided further that each Rating Agency
acknowledges that its rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior
to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified or reduced as a result
of such assignment and delegation. No appointment of a successor to the Master
Servicer hereunder shall be effective until the Trustee shall have consented
thereto, and written notice of such proposed appointment shall have been
provided by the Trustee to each Certificateholder. The Trustee shall not
resign as servicer until a successor



                                     137
<PAGE>

servicer has been appointed and has accepted such appointment. Pending
appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee,
unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, shall, subject to
Section 3.04 hereof, act in such capacity as herein above provided. In
connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on
Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided that no such
compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Master Servicer
hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent
with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
Neither the Trustee nor any other successor servicer shall be deemed to be in
default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making,
any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any failure to perform,
or any delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities hereunder, in
either case caused by the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver or
provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any cash, information,
documents or records to it.

            Any successor to the Master Servicer as servicer shall give notice
to the NIM Insurer and the Mortgagors of such change of servicer and shall,
during the term of its service as servicer maintain in force the policy or
policies that the Master Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to Section
6.05.

            In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master
Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor Master Servicer, including the
Trustee if the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer, shall represent
and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to
comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in
connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with
MERS, or (ii) the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the
successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment
of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the
Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and other
instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such
Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System to the
successor Master Servicer. The predecessor Master Servicer shall file or cause
to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The
successor Master Servicer shall cause such assignment to be delivered to the
Co-Trustee promptly upon receipt of the original with evidence of recording
thereon or a copy certified by the public recording office in which such
assignment was recorded.

            Section 7.03 Notification to Certificateholders.

            (a) Upon any termination of or appointment of a successor to the
Master Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to
Certificateholders and to each Rating Agency.

            (b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default,
the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of each
such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of
Default shall have been cured or waived.

                                ARTICLE VIII.
                   CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE AND THE CO-TRUSTEE

            Section 8.01 Duties of Trustee.

            The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and
after the curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred, shall
undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred and remains
uncured, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it
by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise
as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of such person's own affairs.

            The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments
furnished to the Trustee (or the Co-Trustee, to the extent provided in this
Agreement) that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement shall examine them to determine whether they
conform to the requirements of this Agreement, to the extent provided in this
Agreement. If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements
of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee shall take action as it
deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected.

            No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own gross
negligent failure to act or its own misconduct, its grossly negligent failure
to perform its obligations in compliance with this Agreement, or any liability
that would be imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance or bad faith;
provided that:

                  (1) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and
      after the curing of all such Events of Default that may have occurred,
      the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by
      the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be
      liable, individually or as Trustee, except for the performance of such
      duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement,
      no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement
      against the Trustee and the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the
      truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
      therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
      conforming to the requirements of this Agreement that it reasonably
      believed in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly executed by
      the proper authorities respecting any matters arising hereunder;

                  (2) the Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as
      Trustee, for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible
      Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless the Trustee was
      grossly negligent or acted in bad faith or with willful misfeasance;

                  (3) the Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as
      Trustee, with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be
      taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the
      Holders of each Class of Certificates evidencing not



                                     139
<PAGE>

      less than 25% of the Voting Rights of such Class relating to the time,
      method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
      to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the
      Trustee under this Agreement; and

                  (4) without in any way limiting the provisions of this
      Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 hereof, the Trustee shall be entitled to
      rely conclusively on the information delivered to it by the Master
      Servicer in a Trustee Advance Notice in determining whether or not it is
      required to make an Advance under Section 4.01(d), shall have no
      responsibility to ascertain or confirm any information contained in any
      Trustee Advance Notice, and shall have no obligation to make any Advance
      under Section 4.01(d) in the absence of a Trustee Advance Notice or
      actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer that (A) a required Advance
      was not made and (B) such required Advance was not a Nonrecoverable
      Advance.

            Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.

            (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

                  (1) the Trustee may request and rely upon and shall be
      protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,
      Officer's Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate,
      statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
      appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine
      and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

                  (2) the Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion of
      Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
      respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
      good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;

                  (3) the Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as
      Trustee, for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith
      and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights
      or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

                  (4) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder
      and after the curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred,
      the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts
      or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
      opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or
      other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by the NIM
      Insurer or the Holders of each Class of Certificates evidencing not less
      than 25% of the Voting Rights of such Class; provided, however, that if
      the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs,
      expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of
      such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee not reasonably
      assured to the Trustee by the NIM Insurer or such Certificateholders,
      the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense, or
      liability from the NIM Insurer or such Certificateholders as a condition
      to taking any such action;



                                     140
<PAGE>

                  (5) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
      hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
      through agents, accountants or attorneys;

                  (6) the Trustee shall not be required to expend its own
      funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
      any of its duties hereunder if it shall have reasonable grounds for
      believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against
      such liability is not assured to it;

                  (7) the Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as
      Trustee, for any loss on any investment of funds pursuant to this
      Agreement (other than as issuer of the investment security);

                  (8) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an
      Event of Default until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have
      received written notice thereof; and

                  (9) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
      of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to make any
      investigation of matters arising hereunder or to institute, conduct or
      defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request,
      order or direction of the NIM Insurer or any of the Certificateholders,
      pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless the NIM Insurer or
      such Certificateholders, as applicable, shall have offered to the
      Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
      liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby.

            (b) All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of the
Certificates, enforceable by the Trustee, may be enforced by the Trustee
without the possession of any of the Certificates, or the production thereof
at the trial or other proceeding relating thereto, and any such suit, action
or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its name for the
benefit of all the Holders of the Certificates, subject to the provisions of
this Agreement.

            The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to execute, deliver and
perform its obligations under the Swap Contract Administration Agreement (in
its capacity as Swap Trustee). The Sellers, the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and the Holders of the Interest-Bearing Certificates by their acceptance of
such Certificates acknowledge and agree that the Trustee shall execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under the Swap Contract Administration
Agreement and shall do so solely in its capacity as Swap Trustee, as the case
may be, and not in its individual capacity. Every provision of this Agreement
relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection
to the Trustee shall apply to the Trustee's execution of the Swap Contract
Administration Agreement in its capacity as Swap Trustee, and the performance
of its duties and satisfaction of its obligations thereunder.

            Section 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Mortgage Loans.

            The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of
the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this



                                     141
<PAGE>

Agreement or of any Mortgage Loan or related document or of MERS or the
MERS(R) System other than with respect to the Trustee's execution and
authentication of the Certificates. The Trustee shall not be accountable for
the use or application by the Depositor or the Master Servicer of any funds
paid to the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans
or deposited in or withdrawn from the Certificate Account by the Depositor or
the Master Servicer.

            Section 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates.

            The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the
owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it
were not the Trustee.

            Section 8.05 Master Servicer to Pay Trustee's Fees and Expenses.

            The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the
Trustee, upon its request, for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including, without
limitation: (A) the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements
of its counsel, but only for representation of the Trustee acting in its
capacity as Trustee hereunder and (B) to the extent that the Trustee must
engage persons not regularly in its employ to perform acts or services on
behalf of the Trust Fund, which acts or services are not in the ordinary
course of the duties of a trustee, paying agent or certificate registrar, in
the absence of a breach or default by any party hereto, the reasonable
compensation, expenses and disbursements of such persons, except any such
expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct). The Trustee and any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer and held
harmless against any loss, liability or expense (i) incurred in connection
with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, or in
connection with the performance of any of the Trustee's duties hereunder,
other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of any of the
Trustee's duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of the Trustee's
obligations and duties hereunder or (ii) resulting from any error in any tax
or information return prepared by the Master Servicer. Such indemnity shall
survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the
Trustee hereunder.

            Section 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.

            The Trustee hereunder shall, at all times, be a corporation or
association organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the
United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000,
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and with a
credit rating that would not cause any of the Rating Agencies to reduce their
respective ratings of any Class of Certificates below the ratings issued on
the Closing Date (or having provided such security from time to time as is
sufficient to avoid such reduction). If such corporation or association
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section 8.06 the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation or association shall be



                                     142
<PAGE>

deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent
report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.06, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified
in Section 8.07 hereof. The corporation or national banking association
serving as Trustee may have normal banking and trust relationships with the
Depositor, the Sellers and the Master Servicer and their respective
affiliates; provided that such corporation cannot be an affiliate of the
Master Servicer other than the Trustee in its role as successor to the Master
Servicer.

            Section 8.07 Resignation and Removal of Trustee.

            The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the
trusts hereby created by (1) giving written notice of resignation to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer and by mailing notice of resignation by
first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Certificateholders at their
addresses appearing on the Certificate Register and each Rating Agency, not
less than 60 days before the date specified in such notice when, subject to
Section 8.08, such resignation is to take effect, and (2) acceptance of
appointment by a successor trustee in accordance with Section 8.08 and meeting
the qualifications set forth in Section 8.06. If no successor trustee shall
have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the
giving of such notice or resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

            If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof and shall fail to resign
after written request thereto by the NIM Insurer or the Depositor, (ii) the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or
insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed,
or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, or (iii)(A) a tax is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by
any state in which the Trustee or the Trust Fund is located, (B) the
imposition of such tax would be avoided by the appointment of a different
trustee and (C) the Trustee fails to indemnify the Trust Fund against such
tax, then the Depositor, the NIM Insurer or the Master Servicer may remove the
Trustee and appoint a successor trustee, reasonably acceptable to the NIM
Insurer, by written instrument, in triplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the Trustee, one copy of which shall be delivered to the
Master Servicer and one copy of which shall be delivered to the successor
trustee.

            The Holders evidencing at least 51% of the Voting Rights of each
Class of Certificates may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed
by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set
of which instruments shall be delivered by the successor Trustee to the Master
Servicer one complete set to the Trustee so removed and one complete set to
the successor so appointed. Notice of any removal of the Trustee shall be
given to each Rating Agency by the successor Trustee.

            Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 8.08 hereof.

<PAGE>

            Section 8.08 Successor Trustee.

            Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 hereof
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, its predecessor
trustee and the Master Servicer an instrument accepting such appointment
hereunder and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee
shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as
if originally named as trustee herein. In addition, if the Swap Contract is
still outstanding, the Person appointed as successor trustee shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the predecessor trustee, CHL and the Master
Servicer an instrument accepting the appointment as successor Swap Contract
Administrator under the Swap Contract Administration Agreement.

            No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, is reasonably
acceptable to the NIM Insurer and its appointment shall not adversely affect
the then-current ratings of the Certificates.

            Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided
in this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of
such trustee hereunder to the NIM Insurer and all Holders of Certificates. If
the Depositor fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such
notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.

            Section 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.

            Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation succeeding to substantially all of the corporate trust
business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided that such corporation shall be eligible under the provisions of
Section 8.06 hereof without the execution or filing of any paper or further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

            Section 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

            Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note may at
the time be located, the Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall
have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or
more Persons approved by the Trustee and reasonably acceptable to the NIM
Insurer to act as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or
separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund,
and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of
the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part thereof,
whichever is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section
8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master
Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master
Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment, or the



                                     144
<PAGE>

NIM Insurer shall not have approved such appointment, within 15 days after
receipt by it of a request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall have the power to make such
appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to
meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 and no
notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate
trustee shall be required under Section 8.08.

            Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:

                  (1) All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
      imposed upon the Trustee, except for the obligation of the Trustee under
      this Agreement to advance funds on behalf of the Master Servicer, shall
      be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee
      and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood
      that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act
      separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the
      extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular
      act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as
      successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be
      incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event
      such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of
      title to the Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction)
      shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or
      co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee;

                  (2) No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by
      reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

                  (3) The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or
      remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

            Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be
deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and
co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement
and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee
upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates
or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with
the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the
provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this
Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the
Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Master Servicer and the Depositor.

            Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute
the Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to
the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of
this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or
co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of
its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

            Section 8.11 Tax Matters.

            It is intended that the Trust Fund shall constitute, and that the
affairs of the Trust Fund shall be conducted so that each REMIC created
pursuant to the Preliminary Statement qualifies as, a "real estate mortgage
investment conduit" as defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions.
In furtherance of such intention, the Trustee covenants and agrees that it
shall act as agent (and the Trustee is hereby appointed to act as agent) on
behalf of the Trust Fund and that in such capacity it shall: (a) prepare and
file, or cause to be prepared and filed, in a timely manner, a U.S. Real
Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Income Tax Returns (Form 1066 or any
successor form adopted by the Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file
or cause to be prepared and filed with the Internal Revenue Service and
applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information returns
for each taxable year with respect to each REMIC created hereunder containing
such information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the
Code or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and furnish or cause
to be furnished to Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information
at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby; (b) within thirty
days of the Closing Date, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal
Revenue Service, on Forms 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code,
the name, title, address, and telephone number of the person that the Holders
of the Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto, together
with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and update
such information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code for
the Trust Fund; (c) make or cause to be made elections, on behalf of each
REMIC created hereunder to be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return of
each such REMIC for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under
applicable state law); (d) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and
forwarded, to the Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and,
if necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns and reports as
and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC
Provisions, including without limitation, the calculation of any original
issue discount using the Prepayment Assumption; (e) provide information
necessary for the computation of tax imposed on the transfer of a Class A-R
Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, or an agent
(including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a Non-Permitted
Transferee, or a pass-through entity in which a Non-Permitted Transferee is
the record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and
furnishing such information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax);
(f) to the extent that they are under its control conduct the affairs of the
Trust Fund at all times that any Certificates are outstanding so as to
maintain the status of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC under the REMIC
Provisions; (g) not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take
any action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of any REMIC
created hereunder; (h) pay, from the sources specified in the penultimate
paragraph of this Section 8.11, the amount of any federal, state and local
taxes, including prohibited transaction taxes as described below, imposed on
any REMIC created hereunder prior to the termination of the Trust Fund when
and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not
prevent the Trustee or any other appropriate Person from contesting any such
tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
such proceedings); (i) sign or cause to be signed federal, state or local
income tax or information returns; (j) maintain records relating to each REMIC
created hereunder, including but not limited to the income, expenses, assets
and liabilities of each such REMIC, and the fair market value and adjusted
basis of the Trust Fund property determined at such intervals as may be
required by the Code, as may be necessary to



                                     146
<PAGE>

prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information; and (k)
as and when necessary and appropriate, represent the Trust Fund in any
administrative or judicial proceedings relating to an examination or audit by
any governmental taxing authority, request an administrative adjustment as to
any taxable year of any REMIC created hereunder, enter into settlement
agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend any statute of
limitations relating to any tax item of the Trust Fund, and otherwise act on
behalf of any REMIC created hereunder in relation to any tax matter involving
any such REMIC.

            In order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth
herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee
within ten days after the Closing Date all information or data that the
Trustee requests in writing and determines to be relevant for tax purposes to
the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without
limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flows
of the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans (and, to the extent not part of the
aforementioned, the information referred to in paragraphs (1), (2), (3) and
(4) of Section 4.05(d)). Thereafter, the Depositor shall provide to the
Trustee promptly upon written request therefor, any such additional
information or data that the Trustee may, from time to time, request in order
to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth herein. The Depositor
hereby indemnifies the Trustee for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or
expenses of the Trustee arising from any errors or miscalculations of the
Trustee that result from any failure of the Depositor to provide, or to cause
to be provided, accurate information or data to the Trustee on a timely basis.

            In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions"
of the Trust Fund as defined in section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net
income from foreclosure property" of the Trust Fund as defined in section
860G(c) of the Code, on any contribution to the Trust Fund after the startup
day pursuant to section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed,
including, without limitation, any federal, state or local tax or minimum tax
imposed upon the Trust Fund pursuant to sections 23153 and 24872 of the
California Revenue and Taxation Code if not paid as otherwise provided for
herein, such tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee, if any such other tax
arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its
obligations under this Agreement, (ii) (x) the Master Servicer, in the case of
any such minimum tax, and (y) any party hereto (other than the Trustee) to the
extent any such other tax arises out of or results from a breach by such other
party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or (iii) in all other
cases, or in the event that any liable party here fails to honor its
obligations under the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), any such tax will be paid
first with amounts otherwise to be distributed to the Class A-R
Certificateholders, and second with amounts otherwise to be distributed to all
other Certificateholders in the same manner as if such tax were a Realized
Loss that occurred ratably within each Loan Group. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, to the extent that such tax is payable by the
Class A-R Certificates, the Trustee is hereby authorized to retain on any
Distribution Date, from the Holders of the Class A-R Certificates (and, if
necessary, second, from the Holders of the all other Certificates in the
priority specified in the preceding sentence), funds otherwise distributable
to such Holders in an amount sufficient to pay such tax. The Trustee agrees to
promptly notify in writing the party liable for any such tax of the amount
thereof and the due date for the payment thereof.

            The Trustee shall treat the Carryover Reserve Fund and the Swap
Trust, including the Swap Account, as outside reserve funds within the meaning
of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-



                                     147
<PAGE>

2(h), neither of which is an asset of any REMIC created hereunder. The
Carryover Reserve Fund shall be treated as owned by the Class C
Certificateholders and the Swap Trust, including the Swap Account shall be
treated as owned by the Class C Certificateholders. The rights of the Holders
of each Class of Certificates (other than the Class P and Class A-R
Certificates) to receive payments from, and the deemed obligations of such
Holders to make payments to, the Carryover Reserve Fund or the Swap Trust,
including the Swap Account, shall be treated as rights and obligations with
respect to notional principal contracts written by the Holders of the Class C
Certificates in respect of any Net Rate Carryover distributed pursuant to
Sections 4.04(c)(4), and (ii) the Swap Counterparty in respect of any Net Rate
Carryover funded by the Swap Contract and in respect of any residual payments
from such Swap Contract received by the Class C Certificates. Thus, the
Certificates (other than the Class P and Class A-R Certificates), shall be
treated as representing ownership of Master REMIC regular interests coupled
with contractual rights and obligations within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation 1.860G-2(i). For purposes of determining the issue price of the
various Master REMIC regular interests, the Trustee shall assume that the Swap
Contract has a value of $2,710,000.

            The Trustee shall treat the entitlement to Credit Comeback Excess
Amounts as owned by the Holders of the Class C Certificates and not as an
asset of, or interest in, any REMIC created hereunder. Further, the Trustee
shall treat any payments of Credit Comeback Excess Amounts to Persons other
than the Holders of the Class C Certificates as payments made by the Holders
of the Class C Certificates pursuant to a credit enhancement contract under
Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(c). The Trustee shall also treat any amount
payable to a Class C Certificate with respect to the R-3-X Interest as
deposited into the Carryover Reserve Fund. In addition, to the extent the
interest otherwise payable to a Certificateholder is reduced for amounts
payable with respect to the Swap Contract, the Trustee, for federal income tax
purposes, shall treat the amount of such reduction as first payable to the
Certificateholder as interest and as then payable by the Certificateholder
with respect to a notional principal contract. To the extent the amount
payable with respect to the Swap Contract exceeds the aggregate of the
reductions described in the immediate sentence, the Trustee, for federal
income tax purposes, shall treat such excess as Realized Losses from Mortgage
Loans and to the extent such Realized Losses (if they had occurred) would be
allocated to a Certificateholder, the Trustee shall treat such amount as first
payable to the Certificateholder as principal and as then payable by the
Certificateholder with respect to a notional principal contract.

            Section 8.12 Co-Trustee.

            (a) The Co-Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments
furnished to the Co-Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished
pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall examine them to determine
whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement, to the extent
required by this Agreement. If any such instrument is found not to conform to
the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Co-Trustee shall
take action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected. In
addition, the Co-Trustee shall act as the insured under the Mortgage Insurance
Policy and hereby directs the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Co-Trustee, to
take all actions appropriate or required of the Co-Trustee under the Mortgage
Insurance Policy (including but not limited to submitting monthly unpaid
principal balance updates to the Mortgage Insurer and preparing and submitting
monthly delinquency and default reports to the Mortgage Insurer), other than
the payment of the Mortgage Insurance Premium and obtaining the approval of
the Mortgage Insurer with respect to the appointment of a successor servicer.



                                     148
<PAGE>

            (b) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve
the Co-Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own
gross negligent failure to act or its own misconduct, its grossly negligent
failure to perform its obligations in compliance with this Agreement, or any
liability that would be imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance or bad
faith; provided that:

                  (1) the duties and obligations of the Co-Trustee shall be
      determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement with the
      exception of Section 8.10, the Co-Trustee shall not be liable,
      individually or as Co-Trustee, except for the performance of such duties
      and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no
      implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement
      against the Co-Trustee and the Co-Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
      the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions
      expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the
      Co-Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement that it
      reasonably believed in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly
      executed by the proper authorities respecting any matters arising
      hereunder; and

                  (2) the Co-Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as
      Co-Trustee, for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible
      Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless the Co-Trustee
      was grossly negligent or acted in bad faith or with willful misfeasance.

            (c) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (b) above:

                  (1) the Co-Trustee may request and rely upon and shall be
      protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,
      Officer's Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate,
      statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
      appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine
      and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

                  (2) the Co-Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion
      of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
      respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
      good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;

                  (3) the Co-Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as
      Co-Trustee, for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good
      faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or
      rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

                  (4) the Co-Trustee shall not be bound to make any
      investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
      certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
      consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document;

                  (5) the Co-Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
      hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
      through agents, accountants or attorneys; and



                                     149
<PAGE>

                  (6) the Co-Trustee shall not be required to expend its own
      funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
      any of its duties hereunder if it shall have reasonable grounds for
      believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against
      such liability is not assured to it.

            (d) The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements
of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, and the
Co-Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Co-Trustee
makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement
or of any Mortgage Loan or related document or of MERS or the MERS(R) System.
The Co-Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the
Depositor or the Master Servicer of any funds paid to the Depositor or the
Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn
from the Certificate Account by the Depositor or the Master Servicer.

            (e) The Co-Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may
become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would
have if it were not the Co-Trustee.

            (f) The Master Servicer covenants and agrees (i) to pay to the
Co-Trustee from time to time, and the Co-Trustee shall be entitled to, such
compensation as shall be agreed in writing by the Master Servicer and the
Co-Trustee (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to
the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered
by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and
performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Co-Trustee and
(ii) to pay or reimburse the Co-Trustee, upon its request, for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Co-Trustee on
behalf of the Trust Fund in accordance with any of the provisions of this
Agreement (including, without limitation: (A) the reasonable compensation and
the expenses and disbursements of its counsel, but only for representation of
the Co-Trustee acting in its capacity as Co-Trustee hereunder and (B) to the
extent that the Co-Trustee must engage persons not regularly in its employ to
perform acts or services on behalf of the Trust Fund, which acts or services
are not in the ordinary course of the duties of a trustee, paying agent or
certificate registrar, in the absence of a breach or default by any party
hereto, the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such
persons, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from
its negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct). The Co-Trustee and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Co-Trustee shall be indemnified by
the Master Servicer and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense
(i) incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or
the Certificates, or in connection with the performance of any of the
Co-Trustee's duties hereunder, other than any loss, liability or expense
incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the
performance of any of the Co-Trustee's duties hereunder or by reason of
reckless disregard of the Co-Trustee's obligations and duties hereunder and
(ii) resulting from any error in any tax or information return prepared by the
Master Servicer. Such indemnity shall survive the termination of this
Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Co-Trustee hereunder.

            (g) The Co-Trustee hereunder shall, at all times, be a corporation
or association organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the
United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers, having a combined



                                     150
<PAGE>

capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authority and with a credit rating that would
not cause any of the Rating Agencies to reduce their respective ratings of any
Class of Certificates below the ratings issued on the Closing Date (or having
provided such security from time to time as is sufficient to avoid such
reduction). If such corporation or association publishes reports of condition
at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.12
the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or association shall be
deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent
report of condition so published. In case at any time the Co-Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.12,
the Co-Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
specified in paragraph (h) below. The corporation or national banking
association serving as Co-Trustee may have normal banking and trust
relationships with the Depositor, the Sellers and the Master Servicer and
their respective affiliates; provided that such corporation cannot be an
affiliate of the Master Servicer other than the Trustee in its role as
successor to the Master Servicer.

            (h) The Co-Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from
the trusts hereby created by giving 30 days prior written notice of
resignation to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer. Upon such
resignation the Trustee (x) may appoint a successor Co-Trustee meeting the
requirements in paragraph (g) above and acceptable to the Master Servicer and
the NIM Insurer (in their sole discretion), so long as such Co-Trustee
executes and delivers to the other parties hereto an instrument agreeing to be
bound by the provisions of this Agreement or (y) may if permitted by the
Master Servicer (in its sole discretion) assume the rights and duties of the
resigning Co-Trustee so long as the Trustee executes and delivers an
instrument to that effect.

            Section 8.13 Access to Records of the Trustee.

            The Trustee and the Co-Trustee shall afford the Sellers, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer and each Certificate Owner
upon reasonable notice during normal business hours access to all records
maintained by the Trustee or Co-Trustee in respect of its duties under this
Agreement and access to officers of the Trustee responsible for performing its
duties. Upon request, the Trustee or Co-Trustee shall furnish the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer and any requesting Certificate Owner with
its most recent financial statements. The Trustee shall cooperate fully with
the Sellers, the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the NIM Insurer and the
Certificate Owner for review and copying any books, documents, or records
requested with respect to the Trustee's and Co-Trustee's respective duties
under this Agreement. The Sellers, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
Certificate Owner shall not have any responsibility or liability for any
action for failure to act by the Trustee or Co-Trustee and are not obligated
to supervise the performance of the Trustee under this Agreement or otherwise.

            Section 8.14 Suits for Enforcement.

            If an Event of Default or other material default by the Master
Servicer or the Depositor under this Agreement occurs and is continuing, at
the direction of the Certificateholders holding not less than 51% of the
Voting Rights or the NIM Insurer, the Trustee shall proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders or



                                     151
<PAGE>

the NIM Insurer under this Agreement by a suit, action, or proceeding in
equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution
of any power granted in this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other
legal, equitable, or other remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel,
and subject to the foregoing, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce
any of the rights of the Trustee, the NIM Insurer and the Certificateholders.

                                 ARTICLE IX.
                                  TERMINATION

            Section 9.01 Termination upon Liquidation or Repurchase of all
                         Mortgage Loans.

            Subject to Section 9.03, the Trust Fund shall terminate and the
obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Sellers, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee created hereby shall terminate upon
the earlier of (a) the purchase by the Master Servicer or NIM Insurer (the
party exercising such purchase option, the "Terminator") of all of the
Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) remaining in the Trust Fund at the price
equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage
Loan in the Trust Fund (other than in respect of an REO Property), (ii)
accrued interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage Rate (or, if such
repurchase is effected by the Master Servicer, at the applicable Net Mortgage
Rate), (iii) the appraised value of any REO Property in the Trust Fund (up to
the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan), such appraisal to
be conducted by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Terminator and the
Trustee, (iv) any remaining unpaid costs and damages incurred by the Trust
Fund that arises out of an actual violation of any predatory or abusive
lending law or regulation and (v) if the Terminator is the NIM Insurer, any
unreimbursed Servicing Advances, and the principal portion of any unreimbursed
Advances, made on the Mortgage Loans prior to the exercise of such repurchase
and (b) the later of (i) the maturity or other liquidation (or any Advance
with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund
and the disposition of all REO Property and (ii) the distribution to related
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant
to this Agreement, as applicable. In no event shall the trusts created hereby
continue beyond the earlier of (i) the expiration of 21 years from the death
of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late
Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James's, living on the
date hereof and (ii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date.

            The right to purchase all Mortgage Loans and REO Properties by the
Terminator pursuant to clause (a) of the immediately preceding paragraph shall
be conditioned upon (1) the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, at
the time of any such repurchase, aggregating ten percent (10%) or less of the
sum of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Initial Mortgage
Loans and the Pre-Funded Amount and (2) unless the NIM Insurer otherwise
consents, the purchase price for such Mortgage Loans and REO Properties shall
result in a final distribution on any NIM Insurer guaranteed notes that is
sufficient (x) to pay such notes in full and (y) to pay any amounts due and
payable to the NIM Insurer pursuant to the indenture related to such notes.



                                     152
<PAGE>

            The NIM Insurer's right to purchase all Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties shall be further conditioned upon the written consent of the Master
Servicer.

            The Swap Trust shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the Swap
Contract Termination Date, (ii) the reduction of the aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Interest-Bearing Certificates to zero and (iii) the
termination of this Agreement.

            The parties acknowledge that following the termination of the
Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01, continued coverage under the
Mortgage Insurance Policy of any outstanding Mortgage Loans that were Covered
Mortgage Loans immediately prior to such termination will be subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in the letter agreement dated as of the Closing
Date between CHL and the Mortgage Insurer.

            Section 9.02 Final Distribution on the Certificates.

            If on any Determination Date, (i) the Master Servicer determines
that there are no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in
the Trust Fund other than the funds in the Certificate Account, the Master
Servicer shall direct the Trustee to send a final distribution notice promptly
to each related Certificateholder or (ii) the Trustee determines that a Class
of Certificates shall be retired after a final distribution on such Class, the
Trustee shall notify the related Certificateholders within five (5) Business
Days after such Determination Date that the final distribution in retirement
of such Class of Certificates is scheduled to be made on the immediately
following Distribution Date. Any final distribution made pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence will be made only upon presentation and
surrender of the related Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee. If the Terminator elects to terminate pursuant to clause (a) of
Section 9.01, at least 20 days prior to the date notice is to be mailed to the
affected Certificateholders, such electing party shall notify the Depositor
and the Trustee of the date such electing party intends to terminate and of
the applicable repurchase price of the related Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties.

            Notice of any termination, specifying the Distribution Date on
which related Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment
of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the
Trustee by letter to related Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the
10th day and no later than the 15th day of the month immediately preceding the
month of such final distribution. Any such notice shall specify (a) the
Distribution Date upon which final distribution on related Certificates will
be made upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office
therein designated, (b) the amount of such final distribution, (c) the
location of the office or agency at which such presentation and surrender must
be made, and (d) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office therein
specified. The Terminator will give such notice to each Rating Agency at the
time such notice is given to the affected Certificateholders.

            In the event such notice is given, the Master Servicer shall cause
all funds in the Certificate Account to be remitted to the Trustee for deposit
in the Distribution Account on the Business Day prior to the applicable
Distribution Date in an amount equal to the final distribution in respect of
the Certificates. Upon such final deposit and the receipt by the Trustee



                                     153
<PAGE>

of a Request for File Release therefor, the Co-Trustee shall promptly release
to the Master Servicer the Mortgage Files for the Mortgage Loans.

            Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee
shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders of each affected Class the
amounts allocable to such Certificates held in the Distribution Account (and,
if applicable, the Carryover Reserve Fund) in the order and priority set forth
in Section 4.04 hereof on the final Distribution Date and in proportion to
their respective Percentage Interests. Notwithstanding the reduction of the
Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates to zero, such Class
will be outstanding hereunder (solely for the purpose of receiving
distributions (if any) to which it may be entitled pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement and not for any other purpose) until the termination of the
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, each Seller, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee hereunder in accordance with Article IX.

            In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not
surrender related Certificates for cancellation within six months after the
date specified in the above mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a
second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their
related Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within six months after the second notice all the
applicable Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the
Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take
appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning
surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the
funds and other assets that remain a part of the Trust Fund. If within one
year after the second notice all related Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Class A-R Certificates shall be entitled to
all unclaimed funds and other assets that remain subject hereto.

            Section 9.03 Additional Termination Requirements.

            (a) In the event the Terminator exercises its purchase option, the
Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional
requirements, unless the Trustee has been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel,
at the expense of the Terminator, to the effect that the failure of the Trust
Fund to comply with the requirements of this Section 9.03 will not (i) result
in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of a REMIC, or (ii)
cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding:

                  (1) The Master Servicer shall establish a 90-day liquidation
period and notify the Trustee thereof, which shall in turn specify the first
day of such period in a statement attached to the Trust Fund's final Tax
Return pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.860F-1. The Master Servicer
shall prepare a plan of complete liquidation and shall otherwise satisfy all
the requirements of a qualified liquidation under Section 860F of the Code and
any regulations thereunder, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to
the Trustee and the Depositor obtained at the expense of the Terminator;

                  (2) During such 90-day liquidation period, and at or prior
to the time of making the final payment on the Certificates, the Master
Servicer as agent of the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Trust
Fund to the Terminator for cash; and



                                     154
<PAGE>

                  (3) At the time of the making of the final payment on the
Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be
distributed or credited, to the Class A-R Certificateholders all cash on hand
(other than cash retained to meet claims) related to such Class of
Certificates, and the Trust Fund shall terminate at that time.

            (b) By their acceptance of the Certificates, the Holders thereof
hereby authorize the Master Servicer to specify the 90-day liquidation period
for the Trust Fund, which authorization shall be binding upon all successor
Certificateholders. The Trustee shall attach a statement to the final federal
income tax return for each of any REMIC created hereunder stating that
pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.860F-1, the first day of the 90-day
liquidation period for each the REMIC was the date on which the Trustee sold
the assets of the Trust Fund to the Terminator.

            (c) The Trustee as agent for each REMIC created hereunder hereby
agrees to adopt and sign such a plan of complete liquidation upon the written
request of the Master Servicer, and the receipt of the Opinion of Counsel
referred to in Section 9.03(a)(1), and together with the Holders of the Class
A-R Certificates agree to take such other action in connection therewith as
may be reasonably requested by the Terminator.

                                  ARTICLE X.

                           MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

            Section 10.01 Amendment.

            This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Sellers, the Co-Trustee and the Trustee with the
consent of the NIM Insurer, without the consent of any of the
Certificateholders (i) to cure any ambiguity, (ii) to correct or supplement
any provisions herein, (iii) to conform this Agreement to the Prospectus
Supplement or the Prospectus, (iv) to modify, alter, amend, add to or rescind
any of the terms or provisions contained in this Agreement to comply with any
rules or regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission
from time to time, or (v) to make such other provisions with respect to
matters or questions arising under this Agreement, as shall not be
inconsistent with any other provisions herein if such action shall not, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect
the interests of any Certificateholder; provided that any such amendment shall
be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Certificateholders and no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required if the
Person requesting such amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency
stating that such amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal
of the respective ratings then assigned to the Certificates, it being
understood and agreed that any such letter in and of itself will not represent
a determination as to the materiality of any such amendment and will represent
a determination only as to the credit issues affecting any such rating. Any
amendment described above made solely to conform this Agreement to the
Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement shall be deemed not to adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment that significantly changes the
permitted activities of the trust created by this Agreement may be made
without the consent of Certificateholders representing not less than 51% of
the Voting Rights of each Class of Certificates affected by



                                     155
<PAGE>

such amendment. Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees that it will
cooperate with each other party in amending this Agreement pursuant to clause
(iv) above.

            The Trustee, the Co-Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and the Sellers with the consent of the NIM Insurer may also at any time and
from time to time amend this Agreement, without the consent of the
Certificateholders, to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to
such extent as shall be necessary or appropriate to maintain the qualification
of the Trust Fund as a REMIC under the Code or to avoid or minimize the risk
of the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund pursuant to the Code that would
be a claim against the Trust Fund at any time prior to the final redemption of
the Certificates, provided that the Trustee has been provided an Opinion of
Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting such
opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee, to the effect
that such action is necessary or appropriate to maintain such qualification or
to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax.

            This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Sellers, the Co-Trustee and the Trustee
with the consent of the NIM Insurer and the Holders of each Class of
Certificates affected thereby evidencing not less than 51% of the Voting
Rights of such Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing
in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided
that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay
the timing of, payments required to be distributed on any Certificate without
the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the Holders of any Class of Certificates in
a manner other than as described in (i), without the consent of the Holders of
Certificates of such Class evidencing 66% or more of the Voting Rights of such
Class, or (iii) reduce the aforesaid percentages of Certificates the Holders
of which are required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of
the Holders of all such Certificates then outstanding.

            Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no
amendment shall adversely affect in any material respect the Swap Counterparty
without at least ten Business Days' prior notice to the Swap Counterparty and
without the prior written consent of the Swap Counterparty, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. CHL shall provide the Swap Counterparty
with prior written notice of any proposed material amendment of this
Agreement.

            Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee and the NIM Insurer shall not consent to any amendment to this
Agreement unless each shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Trustee and the NIM Insurer, which opinion shall be an
expense of the party requesting such amendment but in any case shall not be an
expense of the Trustee or the NIM Insurer, to the effect that such amendment
will not cause the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund or the
Certificateholders or cause any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.

            Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement,
the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such
amendment to each Certificateholder (if the consent of Certificateholders is
required) and each Rating Agency.



                                     156
<PAGE>

            It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders
under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment,
but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance
thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the
authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject
to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

            Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into
an amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel, reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee and the NIM Insurer that (i) such amendment is permitted and is
not prohibited by this Agreement and that all requirements for amending this
Agreement have been complied with; and (ii) either (A) the amendment does not
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth in the immediately preceding
clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant to this Section 10.01.

            Section 10.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

            This Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public
offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages
are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or
elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Master Servicer at its
expense.

            For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement
as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one
and the same instrument.

            Section 10.03 Governing Law.

            THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED
BY THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE
AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS SHALL BE DETERMINED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

            Section 10.04 Intention of Parties.

            It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance
of the Mortgage Notes, Mortgages, assignments of Mortgages, title insurance
policies and any modifications, extensions and/or assumption agreements and
private mortgage insurance policies relating to the Mortgage Loans by the
Depositor to the Trustee be, and be construed as, an absolute sale thereof to
the Trustee. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such
conveyance be deemed a pledge thereof by the Depositor to the Trustee.
However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such
assets are held to be the property of the Depositor, or if for any other
reason this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement is held or deemed
to create a security interest in such assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a security agreement (within the meaning of the Uniform
Commercial Code of the State of New York) with respect to all such assets and
security interests and (ii) the conveyance provided for in this



                                     157
<PAGE>

Agreement and any Subsequent Transfer Agreement shall be deemed to be an
assignment and a grant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement by the
Depositor to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the
Swap Counterparty, of a security interest in all of the assets that constitute
the Trust Fund, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

            The Depositor for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the NIM
Insurer and the Swap Counterparty shall, to the extent consistent with this
Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this
Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the assets of the Trust
Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security
interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such
throughout the term of the Agreement. The Depositor shall arrange for filing
any Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in connection with any
security interest granted or assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders and the Swap Counterparty.

            Section 10.05 Notices.

            (a) The Trustee shall use its best efforts to promptly provide

                  (2) The occurrence of any Event of Default that has not been

                  (5) The final payment to Certificateholders.

            Section 10.08 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

            The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate
to terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such
Certificateholder's legal representative or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or commence any proceeding in any court for a petition or
winding up of the Trust Fund, or otherwise affect the rights, obligations and
liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

            No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as
provided herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and
management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor
shall anything herein set forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates
be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as
partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be
under any liability to any third party by reason of any action taken by the
parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.

            No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue or by availing
itself of any provisions of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or
proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this
Agreement, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a
written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as
hereinbefore provided, the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than
25% of the Voting Rights shall also have made written request to the Trustee
to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee
hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as
it may require against the costs, expenses, and liabilities to be incurred
therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity shall have neglected or refused to
institute any such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and
intended, and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every
other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of
Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by
availing itself or themselves of any provisions of this Agreement to affect,
disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of the
Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to
any other such Holder or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in
the manner herein provided and for the common benefit of all
Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of
this Section 10.08, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be
entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

            Section 10.09 Inspection and Audit Rights.

            The Master Servicer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it
will permit any representative of the Depositor, any Seller, the NIM Insurer
or the Trustee during the Master Servicer's normal business hours, to examine
all the books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Master
Servicer relating to the Mortgage Loans, to make copies and extracts
therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by independent certified public
accountants selected by the Depositor, a Seller, the NIM Insurer or the
Trustee and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts relating to the
Mortgage Loans with its officers, employees and independent public accountants
(and by this provision the Master Servicer hereby authorizes such accountants
to discuss with such representative such affairs, finances and accounts), all
at such reasonable times



                                     160
<PAGE>

and as often as may be reasonably requested. Any out-of-pocket expense
incident to the exercise by the Depositor, any Seller, the NIM Insurer or the
Trustee of any right under this Section 10.09 shall be borne by the party
requesting such inspection; all other such expenses shall be borne by the
Master Servicer.

            Section 10.10 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.

            It is the intention of the Depositor that Certificateholders shall
not be personally liable for obligations of the Trust Fund, that the interests
in the Trust Fund represented by the Certificates shall be nonassessable for
any reason whatsoever, and that the Certificates, upon due authentication
thereof by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, are and shall be deemed
fully paid.

            Section 10.11 Rights of NIM Insurer.

            (a) The rights of the NIM Insurer under this Agreement shall exist
only so long as either:

                  (1) the notes certain payments on which are guaranteed by
      the NIM Insurer remain outstanding or

                  (2) the NIM Insurer is owed amounts paid by it with respect
      to that guaranty.

            (b) The rights of the NIM Insurer under this Agreement are
exercisable by the NIM Insurer only so long as no default by the NIM Insurer
under its guaranty of certain payments under notes backed or secured by the
Class C or Class P Certificates has occurred and is continuing. If the NIM
Insurer is the subject of any insolvency proceeding, the rights of the NIM
Insurer under this Agreement will be exercisable by the NIM Insurer only so
long as:

                  (1) the obligations of the NIM Insurer under its guaranty of
      notes backed or secured by the Class C or Class P Certificates have not
      been disavowed and

                  (2) CHL and the Trustee have received reasonable assurances
      that the NIM Insurer will be able to satisfy its obligations under its
      guaranty of notes backed or secured by the Class C or Class P
      Certificates.

            (c) The NIM Insurer is a third party beneficiary of this Agreement
to the same extent as if it were a party to this Agreement and may enforce any
of those rights under this Agreement.

            (d) A copy of any documents of any nature required by this
Agreement to be delivered by the Trustee, or to the Trustee or the Rating
Agencies, shall in each case at the same time also be delivered to the NIM
Insurer. Any notices required to be given by the Trustee, or to the Trustee or
the Rating Agencies, shall in each case at the same time also be given to the
NIM Insurer. If the Trustee receives a notice or document that is required
hereunder to be delivered to the NIM Insurer, and if such notice or document
does not indicate that a copy thereof has been previously sent to the NIM
Insurer, the Trustee shall send the NIM Insurer a copy of such notice



                                     161
<PAGE>

or document. If such document is an Opinion of Counsel, the NIM Insurer shall
be an addressee thereof or such Opinion of Counsel shall contain language
permitting the NIM Insurer to rely thereon as if the NIM Insurer were an
addressee thereof.

            (e) Anything in this Agreement that is conditioned on not
resulting in the downgrading or withdrawal of the ratings then assigned to the
Certificates by the Rating Agencies shall also be conditioned on not resulting
in the downgrading or withdrawal of the ratings then assigned by the Rating
Agencies to the notes backed or secured by the Class C or Class P Certificates
(without giving effect to any policy or guaranty provided by the NIM Insurer).

                      )  ss.:
COUNTY OF             )

            The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as
follows:

            1. The undersigned is an officer of _______________, the proposed
Transferee of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate (the
"Certificate") issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated
as of December 1, 2005 (the "Agreement"), by and among CWABS, Inc., as
depositor (the "Depositor"), Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., as a Seller, Park
Monaco Inc., as a Seller, Park Sienna LLC, as a Seller, Countrywide Home Loans
Servicing LP, as Master Servicer, The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as
Co-Trustee and The Bank of New York, as Trustee. Capitalized terms used, but
not defined herein or in Exhibit 1 hereto, shall have the meanings ascribed to
such terms in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to
make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.

            2. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject
to Title I of ERISA or to section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
nor is it acting on behalf of or with plan assets of any such plan. The
Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date of the
Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee will endeavor to remain a
Permitted Transferee for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate. The Transferee is acquiring its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate for its own account.

            3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a
tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not
Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if
such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and
(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability
for the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit
that such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.

            4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax
will be imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any
time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity. The
Transferee understands that such tax will not be imposed for any period with
respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an
affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted Transferee and the
pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is
false. (For this purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a regulated
investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a
partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives and, except as may be
provided in Treasury Regulations, persons holding interests in pass-through
entities as a nominee for another Person.)



                                    I-1-1
<PAGE>

            5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(c)
of the Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by
reference) and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an
Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the
restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the
Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by
and to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement and the
restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands
and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall
render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.

            6. The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any
Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in
the Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the
Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not
Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be
Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the
Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the
form set forth as Exhibit J-1 to the Agreement (a "Transferor Certificate") to
the effect that such Transferee has no actual knowledge that the Person to
which the Transfer is to be made is not a Permitted Transferee.

            7. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the
assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect
to the Class A-R Certificates.

            8. The Transferee's taxpayer identification number is _____.

            9. The Transferee is a U.S. Person as defined in Code section
7701(a)(30).

            10. The Transferee is aware that the Class A-R Certificates may be
"noneconomic residual interests" within the meaning of proposed Treasury
regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a
noneconomic residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with
respect to the income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose
of the transfer was to impede the assessment or collection of tax. In
addition, as the holder of a noneconomic residual interest, the Transferee may
incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the interest
and the Transferee hereby represents that it intends to pay taxes associated
with holding the residual interest as they become due.

            11. The Transferee has provided financial statements or other
financial information requested by the Transferor in connection with the
transfer of the Class A-R Certificates to permit the Transferor to assess the
financial capability of the Transferee to pay such taxes.

                                   *   *   *

described in section 521 of the Code) that is exempt from tax imposed by
Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by section 511 of the Code on
unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in
section 860E(c)(1) of the Code) with respect to any Class A-R Certificate,
(iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in section
1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code, (v) an "electing large partnership" as defined in
section 775 of the Code, (vi) a Person that is not a citizen or resident of
the United States, a corporation, partnership, or other entity (treated as a
corporation or a partnership for federal income tax purposes) created or
organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the
District of Columbia, or an estate whose income from sources without the
United States is includible in gross income for United States federal income
tax purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade or
business within the United States, or a trust if a court within the United
States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the
trust and one or more United States persons have authority to control all
substantial decisions of the trustor unless such Person has furnished the
transferor and the Trustee with a duly completed Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI, and (vii) any other Person so designated by the Trustee based upon an
Opinion of Counsel that the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R

qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are Outstanding. The
terms "United States," "State" and "International Organization" shall have the
meanings set forth in section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions. A

Ownership Interest in a Certificate, including the acquisition of a
Certificate by the Depositor.

            "Transferee": Any Person who is acquiring by Transfer any

                       Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement

            (c) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in
a Class A-R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of
such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following
provisions, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in
a Class A-R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:

            (1) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
      Class A-R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly
      notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a
      Permitted Transferee.

            (2) Except in connection with (i) the registration of the Tax
      Matters Person Certificate in the name of the Trustee or (ii) any
      registration in the name of, or transfer of a Class A-R Certificate to,
      an affiliate of the Depositor (either directly or through a nominee) in
      connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates, no Ownership
      Interest in a Class A-R Certificate may be registered on the Closing
      Date or thereafter transferred, and the Trustee shall not register the
      Transfer of any Class A-R Certificate unless, the Trustee shall have
      been furnished with an affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial
      owner or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
      I.

            (3) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
      Class A-R Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit
      from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its
      Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer
      Affidavit from any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee,
      trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer of a Class A-R
      Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class
      A-R Certificate, or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
      Class A-R Certificate to any other Person, if it has actual knowledge
      that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee.

            (4) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest
      in a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this
      Section 5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no
      rights in the purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall
      become a Holder of a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the
      provisions of this Section 5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted
      Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive
      to the date of registration of Transfer of such Class A-R Certificate.
      The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
      registration of Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is in fact not
      permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this Section 5.02(c) or for making any
      payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any
      other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this
      Agreement so long as the Transfer was registered after receipt of the
      related Transfer Affidavit and Transferor Certificate. The Trustee shall
      be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder of a Class A-R
      Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time it
      became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became other than a
      Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Class A-R Certificate at
      and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by the
      Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding
      Permitted Transferee of such Certificate.



                                    I-1-5

            (5) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to make
      available, upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, all
      information necessary to compute any tax imposed under section 860E(e)
      of the Code as a result of a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
      Class A-R Certificate to any Holder who is not a Permitted Transferee.

            The restrictions on Transfers of a Class A-R Certificate set forth
in this section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of
the legend on a Class A-R Certificate may be deleted) with respect to
Transfers occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Sellers
or the Master Servicer to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions
will not cause any constituent REMIC of any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result
in the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another
Person. Each Person holding or acquiring any ownership Interest in a Class A-R
Certificate hereby consents to any amendment of this Agreement that, based on
an Opinion of Counsel furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to
ensure that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Class
A-R Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that
is not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the
Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is held by a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.

      The term "securities" as used herein does not include (i) securities of

         Buyer is a dealer, (iii) securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.

         the securities referred to in the preceding paragraph, except (i)
         where the Buyer reports its securities holdings in its financial
         statements on the basis of their market value, and (ii) no current

         aggregate amount, the Buyer may have included securities owned by

         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and if the
         investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the Buyer's
         direction. However, such securities were not included if the Buyer is
         a majority-owned, consolidated subsidiary of another enterprise and
         the Buyer is not itself a reporting company under the Securities
         Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

      The Buyer acknowledges that it is familiar with Rule 144A and
         understands that the seller to it and other parties related to the
         Certificates are relying and will continue to rely on the statements
         made herein because one or more sales to the Buyer may be in reliance
         on Rule 144A.

      Until the date of purchase of the Rule 144A Securities, the Buyer will

         is given, the Buyer's purchase of the Certificates will constitute a
         reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of such purchase.
         In addition, if the Buyer is a bank or savings and loan is provided
         above, the Buyer agrees that it will furnish to such parties updated
         annual financial statements promptly after they become available.

           QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER STATUS UNDER SEC RULE 144A
           --------------------------------------------------------

          [For Transferees That are Registered Investment Companies]

The undersigned (the "Buyer") hereby certifies as follows to the parties
listed in the Rule 144A Transferee Certificate to which this certification
relates with respect to the Certificates described therein:

            1. As indicated below, the undersigned is the President, Chief
Financial Officer or Senior Vice President of the Buyer or, if the Buyer is a
"qualified institutional buyer" as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Rule 144A") because Buyer is part of a
Family of Investment Companies (as defined below), is such an officer of the
Adviser.

      In connection with purchases by Buyer, the Buyer is a "qualified
         institutional buyer" as defined in SEC Rule 144A because (i) the

         Company Act of 1940, as amended and (ii) as marked below, the Buyer
         alone, or the Buyer's Family of Investment Companies, owned at least

         referred to below) as of the end of the Buyer's most recent fiscal
         year. For purposes of determining the amount of securities owned by
         the Buyer or the Buyer's Family of Investment Companies, the cost of
         such securities was used, except (i) where the Buyer or the Buyer's
         Family of Investment Companies reports its securities holdings in its
         financial statements on the basis of their market value, and (ii) no
         current information with respect to the cost of those securities has
         been published. If clause (ii) in the preceding sentence applies, the
         securities may be valued at market.

         ___  The Buyer owned $ in securities (other than the excluded
              securities referred to below) as of the end of the Buyer's most

              securities referred to below) as of the end of the Buyer's most
              recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance
              with Rule 144A).

      The term "Family of Investment Companies" as used herein means two or
         more registered investment companies (or series thereof) that have
         the same investment adviser or investment advisers that are
         affiliated (by virtue of being majority owned subsidiaries of the
         same parent or because one investment adviser is a majority owned
         subsidiary of the other).

      The term "securities" as used herein does not include (i) securities of
         issuers that are affiliated with the Buyer or are part of the Buyer's
         Family of Investment Companies, (ii) securities issued or guaranteed
         by the U.S. or any instrumentality thereof, (iii) bank deposit notes
         and certificates of deposit, (iv) loan participations, (v) repurchase

<PAGE>

         agreements, (vi) securities owned but subject to a repurchase
         agreement and (vii) currency, interest rate and commodity swaps.

      The Buyer is familiar with Rule 144A and under-stands that the parties
         listed in the Rule 144A Transferee Certificate to which this
         certification relates are relying and will continue to rely on the
         statements made herein because one or more sales to the Buyer will be
         in reliance on Rule 144A. In addition, the Buyer will only purchase
         for the Buyer's own account.

      Until the date of purchase of the Certificates, the undersigned will
         notify the parties listed in the Rule 144A Transferee Certificate to
         which this certification relates of any changes in the information
         and conclusions herein. Until such notice is given, the Buyer's
         purchase of the Certificates will constitute a reaffirmation of this
         certification by the undersigned as of the date of such purchase.
