conditions  set forth  herein,  Notes may be  surrendered  for  registration  of

respect  of the  Notes and this  Indenture  may be  served.  The  Issuer  hereby
initially appoints the Indenture Trustee to serve as its agent for the foregoing
purposes.  If at any time the Issuer  shall fail to maintain  any such office or
agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture  Trustee with the address thereof,

As  provided in Section  3.01,  all  payments  of amounts  due and payable  with

Indenture  Trustee or by the Paying Agent,  and no amounts so withdrawn from the
Payment Account for payments of Notes shall be paid over to the Issuer except as
provided in this Section 3.03.

        The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee
to execute  and deliver to the  Indenture  Trustee an  instrument  in which such
Paying  Agent  shall  agree with the  Indenture  Trustee  (and if the  Indenture
Trustee acts as Paying Agent it hereby so agrees),  subject to the provisions of
this Section 3.03, that such Paying Agent will:

                    (i hold all sums held by it for the  payment of amounts  due
        with  respect  to the  Notes in trust  for the  benefit  of the  Persons
        entitled  thereto  until  such  sums  shall be paid to such  Persons  or

        Persons as herein provided;

                   (ii  give  the  Indenture  Trustee  and the  Credit  Enhancer
        written  notice of any  default  by the  Issuer  of which it has  actual
        knowledge in the making of any payment  required to be made with respect
        to the Notes;

                  (iii at any time during the  continuance  of any such default,
        upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee,  forthwith pay to the
        Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

                   (iv  immediately  resign as Paying Agent and forthwith pay to
        the  Indenture  Trustee  all sums held by it in trust for the payment of
        Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards  required to be met
        by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment;

                    (v comply with all  requirements of the Code with respect to
        the  withholding  from  any  payments  made  by it on any  Notes  of any
        applicable  withholding  taxes  imposed  thereon and with respect to any
        applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith; and

                   (vi deliver to the Indenture  Trustee a copy of the report to
        Noteholders  prepared  with  respect to each  Payment Date by the Master
        Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Servicing Agreement.

        The  Issuer  may  at  any  time,   for  the  purpose  of  obtaining  the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer
Request direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in
trust by such Paying Agent,  such sums to be held by the Indenture  Trustee upon
the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and
upon such  payment by any Paying  Agent to the  Indenture  Trustee,  such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

        Subject to applicable  laws with respect to escheat of funds,  any money
held by the  Indenture  Trustee or any Paying  Agent in trust for the payment of
any amount due with  respect to any Note and  remaining  unclaimed  for one year
after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust
and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer  Request;  and the Holder of such Note shall
thereafter,  as an  unsecured  general  creditor,  look only to the  Issuer  for
payment  thereof  (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer),
and all liability of the Indenture  Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to
such trust money shall thereupon cease;  provided,  however,  that the Indenture
Trustee or such Paying Agent,  before being required to make any such repayment,
shall at the expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published  once, in
an  Authorized  Newspaper,  notice that such money  remains  unclaimed and that,
after a date  specified  therein,  which shall not be less than 30 days from the
date of such  publication,  any unclaimed  balance of such money then  remaining
will be repaid to the Issuer.  The Indenture  Trustee may also adopt and employ,
at the  expense  and  direction  of the Issuer,  any other  reasonable  means of
notification of such repayment (including, but not limited to, mailing notice of
such  repayment  to  Holders  whose  Notes  have been  called  but have not been
surrendered  for  redemption  or whose  right to or  interest  in monies due and
payable  but not  claimed is  determinable  from the  records  of the  Indenture
Trustee  or of any  Paying  Agent,  at the last  address of record for each such
Holder).

        Section  3.04.  Existence.  The  Issuer  will  keep in full  effect  its
existence, rights and franchises as a business trust under the laws of the State
of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes,
organized  under the laws of any other state or of the United States of America,
in which case the Issuer  will keep in full  effect  its  existence,  rights and
franchises  under  the laws of such  other  jurisdiction)  and will  obtain  and
preserve its  qualification  to do business in each  jurisdiction  in which such
qualification   is  or  shall  be   necessary   to  protect  the   validity  and
enforceability  of this  Indenture,  the  Notes,  the Home  Loans and each other
instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate.

provided, however, in the event that on a Payment Date a Credit Enhancer Default
shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then the  priorities  of  distributions
described  above will be  adjusted  such that (a)  payments of any amounts to be
paid to the Credit  Enhancer  will not be paid until the full amount of interest
and principal in  accordance  with clauses (i) through (iii) and (vi) above that
are due and  required  to be paid by the  Credit  Enhancer  on the Notes on such
Payment Date have been paid and (b) any Excess Loss Amounts will be allocated on
a pro rata  basis to the Notes  based on their  outstanding  Note  Balances  and
provided, further, that on the Final Insured Payment Date or other final Payment
Date,  the amount to be paid pursuant to clause (ii) above shall be equal to the
aggregate  Note Balance of the related Notes  immediately  prior to such Payment
Date. For purposes of the foregoing, required payments of principal on the Notes
on each  Payment  Date will  include the portion  allocable  to the Notes of all
Liquidation  Loss Amounts for such Payment Date and for all previous  Collection
Periods until paid or covered in full, to the extent not otherwise  covered by a
Liquidation Loss  Distribution  Amount,  a reduction of the Outstanding  Reserve
Amount or a draw on the Credit  Enhancement  Instrument  (up to the  outstanding
Note Balance thereof).

        On each Payment Date, the Certificate  Paying Agent shall deposit in the
Certificate  Distribution  Account  all  amounts it  received  pursuant  to this
Section   3.05   for  the   purpose   of   distributing   such   funds   to  the
Certificateholders.

        The amounts paid to Noteholders shall be paid to the Notes in accordance
with the  applicable  percentage as set forth in paragraph  (b) below.  Interest
will accrue on the Notes  (other than with  respect to the Class A-I-1 Notes) on
the basis of a 360-day year  consisting of twelve 30-day  months.  Interest will
accrue on the Class  A-I-1  Notes on the basis of a 360-day  year and the actual
number of days in the related Interest Accrual Period.

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment  Date shall,  if such Holder  holds Notes of an  aggregate  initial Note
Balance  of at  least  $1,000,000,  be paid  to each  Holder  of  record  on the
preceding  Record Date, by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by
such Holder reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding
Record Date or in all other cases or if no such instructions have been delivered
to the Indenture  Trustee,  by check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to
such Holder's  address as it appears in the Note Register the amount required to
be  distributed  to such Holder on such Payment Date  pursuant to such  Holder's
Securities;  provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such
Holders any amount  required to be withheld from a payment to such Holder by the
Code.

        (b) Any payments to the Notes pursuant to clauses 3.05(a)(ii), (iii) and
(vi)  above plus  amounts  drawn on the Credit  Enhancement  Instrument  and any
amounts paid under the limited  reimbursement  agreement in respect of principal
shall be  distributed  concurrently  to (i) the Class A-I Notes in the aggregate
and (ii) the Class A-II Notes,  in each case in proportion to the  percentage of
the Principal  Collections  derived from the related Loan Group,  until the Note
Balances of the Class A-I Notes or Class A-II Notes have been reduced to zero in
accordance with the priorities  described in this clause (b) below. After either
the Class A-I Notes in the  aggregate  or the Class  A-II  Notes are  reduced to
zero,  all principal  payments  will be  distributed  to the remaining  Class or
Classes of Class A Notes until the Note  Balances  thereof  have been reduced to
zero, in accordance with the priorities in this clause (b) immediately below.


                                              8

Final Insured  Payment Date as provided in the related form of Note set forth in
Exhibit A. All principal  payments on the Notes shall be made to the Noteholders
entitled thereto in accordance with the Percentage Interests represented by such
Notes.  Upon written  notice to the  Indenture  Trustee by the Issuer (or by the

        Section  3.25.  Further  Instruments  and  Acts.  Upon  request  of  the

unreasonably  withheld,  or (ii) a court of  competent  jurisdiction  orders the
repayment  by the  Indenture  Trustee to the ISDA  Counterparty  on the  Limited
Reimbursement  Agreement of the amount of such draw, the Indenture Trustee shall

Interest Accrual Period and shall inform the Issuer,  the Master  Servicer,  the
Credit Enhancer and the Depositor at their respective facsimile numbers given to
the Indenture Trustee in writing.  All  determinations of LIBOR by the Indenture
Trustee shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes,

                                          ARTICLE IV

                      The Notes; Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

        Section 4.01. The Notes.  The Notes shall be registered in the name of a
nominee  designated by the Depository.  Beneficial Owners will hold interests in
the Notes as set forth in Section 4.06 herein in minimum  initial Note  Balances
of $25,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof.

        The  Indenture  Trustee may for all  purposes  (including  the making of
payments  due  on  the  Notes)  deal  with  the  Depository  as  the  authorized
representative  of the  Beneficial  Owners  with  respect  to the  Notes for the
purposes  of  exercising  the rights of Holders  of Notes  hereunder.  Except as
provided in the next  succeeding  paragraph of this Section 4.01,  the rights of
Beneficial  Owners  with  respect  to  the  Notes  shall  be  limited  to  those
established  by law  and  agreements  between  such  Beneficial  Owners  and the
Depository  and  Depository  Participants.  Except as provided in Section  4.08,
Beneficial Owners shall not be entitled to definitive certificates for the Notes
as to which they are the Beneficial  Owners.  Requests and directions  from, and
votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Notes shall not be deemed inconsistent
if they are made with  respect to different  Beneficial  Owners.  The  Indenture
Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in connection with  solicitations
of consents from or voting by  Noteholders  and give notice to the Depository of
such record date.  Without the consent of the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee,
no Note may be transferred by the  Depository  except to a successor  Depository
that agrees to hold such Note for the account of the Beneficial Owners.

        In the event the  Depository  Trust  Company  resigns  or is  removed as
Depository,  the Indenture Trustee with the approval of the Issuer may appoint a
successor  Depository.  If no successor  Depository has been appointed within 30
days of the effective  date of the  Depository's  resignation  or removal,  each
Beneficial  Owner shall be entitled to  certificates  representing  the Notes it
beneficially owns in the manner prescribed in Section 4.08.

        The Notes shall,  on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer
by the  Owner  Trustee,  not in its  individual  capacity  but  solely  as Owner
Trustee,  authenticated  by the Note  Registrar  and  delivered by the Indenture
Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer.

        Section 4.02.  Registration  of and Limitations on Transfer and Exchange
of Notes;  Appointment  of Certificate  Registrar.  The Issuer shall cause to be
kept at the Indenture Trustee's Corporate Trust Office a Note Register in which,
subject to such reasonable  regulations as it may prescribe,  the Note Registrar
shall  provide for the  registration  of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of
Notes as herein provided.

        Subject  to the  restrictions  and  limitations  set forth  below,  upon
surrender  for  registration  of  transfer  of any Note at the  Corporate  Trust
Office,  the Issuer shall execute and the Note Registrar shall  authenticate and
deliver,  in the name of the designated  transferee or transferees,  one or more
new Notes in authorized  initial Note  Balances  evidencing  the same  aggregate
Percentage Interests.

        Subject to the foregoing, at the option of the Noteholders, Notes may be
exchanged  for other Notes of like tenor,  in  authorized  initial Note Balances
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage


                                              18

<PAGE>



Interests  upon  surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the  Corporate  Trust
Office  of the  Note  Registrar.  Whenever  any  Notes  are so  surrendered  for
exchange,  the  Indenture  Trustee shall  execute and the Note  Registrar  shall
authenticate  and deliver the Notes which the Noteholder  making the exchange is
entitled to receive.  Each Note presented or  surrendered  for  registration  of
transfer  or  exchange  shall (if so  required  by the Note  Registrar)  be duly
endorsed  by, or be  accompanied  by a written  instrument  of  transfer in form
reasonably  satisfactory  to the Note  Registrar  duly  executed  by, the Holder
thereof  or  his  attorney  duly  authorized  in  writing  with  such  signature
guaranteed  by  a  commercial   bank  or  trust  company  located  or  having  a
correspondent  located in the city of New York.  Notes  delivered  upon any such
transfer or exchange will evidence the same obligations, and will be entitled to
the same rights and privileges, as the Notes surrendered.

        No service charge shall be imposed for any  registration  of transfer or
exchange  of  Notes,  but the Note  Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum
sufficient  to cover  any tax or  governmental  charge  that may be  imposed  in
connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes.

        All Notes surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be
cancelled  by the Note  Registrar  and  delivered to the  Indenture  Trustee for
subsequent destruction without liability on the part of either.

        The  Issuer  hereby  appoints  the  Indenture   Trustee  as  Certificate
Registrar to keep at its Corporate Trust Office a Certificate  Register pursuant
to Section  3.09 of the Trust  Agreement  in which,  subject to such  reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the
registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges  thereof pursuant to
Section 3.05 of the Trust Agreement.  The Indenture  Trustee hereby accepts such
appointment.

        Each purchaser of a Note, by its acceptance of the Note, shall be deemed
to have  represented that the acquisition of such Note by the purchaser does not
constitute or give rise to a Prohibited  Transaction  under Section 406 of ERISA
or  Section  4975  of  the  Code,   for  which  no   statutory,   regulatory  or
administrative exemption is available.

        Section 4.03.  Mutilated,  Destroyed,  Lost or Stolen Notes.  If (i) any
mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee
receives  evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,  loss or theft of any
Note,  and (ii) there is delivered  to the  Indenture  Trustee such  security or
indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee
harmless,  then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer,  the Note  Registrar or
the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
and  provided  that the  requirements  of Section  8-405 of the UCC are met, the
Issuer  shall  execute,  and  upon  its  request  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall
authenticate  and  deliver,  in exchange  for or in lieu of any such  mutilated,
destroyed,  lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note; provided,  however, that if
any such destroyed,  lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated  Note,  shall have
become or within  seven  days  shall be due and  payable,  instead  of issuing a
replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so
due or  payable  without  surrender  thereof.  If,  after the  delivery  of such
replacement Note or payment of a destroyed,  lost or stolen Note pursuant to the
proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in
lieu of which  such  replacement  Note was  issued  presents  for  payment  such
original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover
such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered
or any Person taking such replacement Note


                                              19

<PAGE>



from such Person to whom such  replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of
such Person, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon
the security or indemnity  provided therefor to the extent of any loss,  damage,
cost or expense  incurred by the Issuer or the  Indenture  Trustee in connection
therewith.

        Upon the issuance of any  replacement  Note under this Section 4.03, the
Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other  governmental  charge  that may be  imposed  in  relation
thereto and any other  reasonable  expenses  (including the fees and expenses of
the Indenture Trustee) connected therewith.

        Every   replacement  Note  issued  pursuant  to  this  Section  4.03  in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original  additional  contractual  obligation of the Issuer,  whether or not the
mutilated,  destroyed,  lost or stolen Note shall be at any time  enforceable by
anyone,  and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

        The provisions of this Section 4.03 are exclusive and shall preclude (to
the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

        Section  4.04.  Persons  Deemed  Owners.  Prior to due  presentment  for
registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee and any
agent of the Issuer or the Indenture  Trustee may treat the Person in whose name
any Note is  registered  (as of the day of  determination)  as the owner of such
Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any,
on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever,  whether or not such Note be
overdue,  and none of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture  Trustee  or any agent of the
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

        Section  4.05.   Cancellation.   All  Notes   surrendered  for  payment,
registration  of transfer,  exchange or redemption  shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Indenture  Trustee,  be delivered to the Indenture Trustee
and shall be promptly cancelled by the Indenture Trustee.  The Issuer may at any
time deliver to the  Indenture  Trustee for  cancellation  any Notes  previously
authenticated and delivered  hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the
Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for
any Notes  cancelled  as  provided in this  Section  4.05,  except as  expressly
permitted by this  Indenture.  All cancelled Notes may be held or disposed of by
the  Indenture  Trustee in  accordance  with its standard  retention or disposal
policy as in effect at the time  unless  the  Issuer  shall  direct by an Issuer
Request that they be destroyed or returned to it;  provided  however,  that such
Issuer Request is timely and the Notes have not been  previously  disposed of by
the Indenture Trustee.

        Section 4.06.  Book-Entry  Notes. Each Class of Notes shall initially be
issued as one or more Notes held by the Book-Entry Custodian or, if appointed to
hold such Notes as provided  below,  the Depository  Trust Company,  the initial
Depository,  and  registered  in the name of its  nominee  Cede & Co.  Except as
provided  below,  registration  of  such  Notes  may not be  transferred  by the
Indenture  Trustee except to another  Depository  that agrees to hold such Notes
for the respective


                                              20

Beneficial  Owners.  The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially  appointed as the
Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and
in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository  authorizing it
to act as such. The Book-Entry  Custodian may, and, if it is no longer qualified
to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument
delivered to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and, if the Indenture Trustee is
not the Book-Entry  Custodian,  the Indenture Trustee,  any other transfer agent
(including  the  Depository  or any successor  Depository)  to act as Book-Entry
Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor  Book-Entry Custodian and the
Depository  or  any  successor  Depository  may  prescribe,  provided  that  the
predecessor  Book-Entry  Custodian shall not be relieved of any of its duties or
responsibilities  by reason of any new appointment,  except if the Depository is
the successor to the Book-Entry  Custodian.  If the Indenture Trustee resigns or
is removed in accordance with the terms hereof,  the successor trustee or, if it
so elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor's  duties
as Book-Entry  Custodian.  The Depositor shall have the right to inspect, and to
obtain  copies  of,  any  Notes  held  as  Book-Entry  Notes  by the  Book-Entry
Custodian.  No Beneficial Owner will receive a Definitive Note representing such
Beneficial  Owner's  interest in such Note,  except as provided in Section 4.08.
Unless and until  definitive,  fully registered  Notes (the "Definitive  Notes")
have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 4.08:

     (i) the provisions of this Section 4.06 shall be in full force and effect;

     (ii) the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to deal
with the Depository for all purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of
principal  of and  interest  on the Notes  and the  giving  of  instructions  or
directions  hereunder)  as the sole  holder  of the  Notes,  and  shall  have no
obligation to the Owners of Notes;

     (iii) to the extent that the  provisions of this Section 4.06 conflict with
any other  provisions  of this  Indenture,  the  provisions of this Section 4.06
shall control;

     (iv) the rights of  Beneficial  Owners shall be exercised  only through the
Depository  and shall be  limited  to those  established  by law and  agreements
between  such  Owners  of  Notes  and  the  Depository   and/or  the  Depository
Participants.  Unless and until  Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section
4.08, the initial Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository
Participants  and receive and transmit  payments of principal of and interest on
the Notes to such Depository Participants; and

     (v) whenever this Indenture  requires or permits  actions to be taken based
upon  instructions  or  directions  of Holders of Notes  evidencing  a specified
percentage of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes,  the Depository  shall be
deemed to  represent  such  percentage  only to the extent that it has  received
instructions   to  such  effect  from   Beneficial   Owners  and/or   Depository
Participants owning or representing,  respectively,  such required percentage of
the beneficial  interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the
Indenture Trustee.

        Section  4.07.  Notices  to  Depository.  Whenever  a  notice  or  other
communication  to the Note Holders is required under this Indenture,  unless and
until Definitive  Notes shall have been issued to Beneficial  Owners pursuant to
Section 4.08, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and


                                              21

<PAGE>



communications  specified  herein  to be given to  Holders  of the  Notes to the
Depository, and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners.

        Section 4.08.  Definitive Notes. If (i) the Indenture Trustee determines
that the  Depository  is no longer  willing or able to  properly  discharge  its
responsibilities  with respect to the Notes and the Indenture  Trustee is unable
to locate a qualified successor,  (ii) the Indenture Trustee elects to terminate
the book-entry system through the Depository or (iii) after the occurrence of an
Event of Default,  Owners of Notes representing beneficial interests aggregating
at least a  majority  of the  aggregate  Note  Balance  of the Notes  advise the
Depository in writing that the  continuation of a book- entry system through the
Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners, then the
Depository shall notify all Beneficial  Owners and the Indenture  Trustee of the
occurrence  of any such event and of the  availability  of  Definitive  Notes to
Beneficial  Owners  requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee
of the typewritten  Notes  representing  the Book-Entry  Notes by the Book-Entry
Custodian  or  the  Depository,  as  applicable,   accompanied  by  registration
instructions,   the  Issuer  shall  execute  and  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall
authenticate  the Definitive  Notes in accordance  with the  instructions of the
Depository.  None of the Issuer,  the Note  Registrar or the  Indenture  Trustee
shall  be  liable  for  any  delay  in  delivery  of such  instructions  and may
conclusively  rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such  instructions.
Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the
Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders.

        Section 4.09. Tax Treatment. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture,
and the Notes will be issued,  with the intention  that, for federal,  state and
local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will qualify
as indebtedness of the Issuer. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture,  and
each Noteholder, by its acceptance of its Note (and each Beneficial Owner by its
acceptance of an interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the
Notes for federal,  state and local  income,  single  business and franchise tax
purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

        Section 4.10.  Satisfaction  and Discharge of Indenture.  This Indenture
shall cease to be of further  effect with  respect to the Notes except as to (i)
rights of registration of transfer and exchange, (ii) substitution of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, (iii) rights of Noteholders to receive payments
of principal thereof and interest thereon, (iv) Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.06, 3.09,
3.16, 3.18 and 3.19, (v) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Indenture
Trustee  hereunder  (including the rights of the Indenture Trustee under Section
6.07 and the  obligations of the Indenture  Trustee under Section 4.11) and (vi)
the rights of Noteholders as  beneficiaries  hereof with respect to the property
so deposited with the Indenture  Trustee  payable to all or any of them, and the
Indenture Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer,  shall execute
proper  instruments  acknowledging  satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
with respect to the Notes, when

               (A)    either

               (1) the Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than
        (i) Notes  that have been  destroyed,  lost or stolen and that have been
        replaced or paid as  provided  in Section  4.03 and (ii) Notes for whose
        payment money has theretofore  been deposited in trust or segregated and
        held in trust by the  Issuer  and  thereafter  repaid  to the  Issuer or
        discharged  from such  trust,  as  provided  in Section  3.03) have been
        delivered to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation; or


                                              22

<PAGE>



          (2) the Notes not theretofore  delivered to the Indenture  Trustee for
          cancellation

                      a.     have become due and payable,

                    b. will become due and payable at the Final Insured  Payment
               Date within one year, or

                    c. have been declared  immediately due and payable  pursuant
               to Section 5.02.

        and the Issuer, in the case of a. or b. above, has irrevocably deposited
        or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Indenture Trustee cash or
        direct obligations of or obligations  guaranteed by the United States of
        America  (which will mature prior to the date such amounts are payable),
        in trust for such purpose,  in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge
        the entire  indebtedness on such Notes then  outstanding not theretofore
        delivered  to the  Indenture  Trustee for  cancellation  when due on the
        Final Insured Payment Date;

               (B) the  Issuer  has paid or  caused  to be paid all  other  sums
        payable hereunder and under the Insurance Agreement by the Issuer; and

               (C) the Issuer has  delivered  to the  Indenture  Trustee and the
        Credit Enhancer an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
        meeting the  applicable  requirements  of Section 10.01 and each stating
        that all  conditions  precedent  herein  provided  for  relating  to the
        satisfaction  and  discharge of this  Indenture  have been complied with
        and, if the Opinion of Counsel  relates to a deposit made in  connection
        with Section  4.10(A)(2)b.  above,  such opinion shall further be to the
        effect  that  such  deposit  will  not  have any  material  adverse  tax
        consequences to the Issuer, any Noteholders or any Certificateholders.

        Section 4.11.  Application of Trust Money. All monies deposited with the
Indenture  Trustee  pursuant to Section  4.10 hereof  shall be held in trust and
applied  by it,  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of the  Notes  and  this
Indenture,  to the  payment,  either  directly  or through  any Paying  Agent or
Certificate Paying Agent, as the Indenture Trustee may determine, to the Holders
of  Securities,  of all sums due and to become due  thereon  for  principal  and
interest;  but such monies need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required herein or required by law.

        Section  4.12.  Subrogation  and  Cooperation.  (a) The  Issuer  and the
Indenture  Trustee  acknowledge that (i) to the extent the Credit Enhancer makes
payments under the Credit  Enhancement  Instrument on account of principal of or
interest on the Home Loans,  the Credit Enhancer will be fully subrogated to the
rights of the  Noteholders  to receive such principal and interest from the Home
Loans,  and (ii) the Credit  Enhancer  shall be paid such principal and interest
but only from the sources and in the manner provided herein and in the Insurance
Agreement for the payment of such principal and interest.

        The  Indenture   Trustee  shall  cooperate  in  all  respects  with  any
reasonable  request by the Credit Enhancer for action to preserve or enforce the
Credit  Enhancer's  rights or interest  under this  Indenture  or the  Insurance
Agreement, consistent with this Indenture and without limiting the rights


                                              23

<PAGE>



of the Noteholders as otherwise set forth in the Indenture,  including,  without
limitation, upon the occurrence and continuance of a default under the Insurance
Agreement, a request to take any one or more of the following actions:

                    (i institute  Proceedings  for the collection of all amounts
        then  payable on the Notes,  or under this  Indenture  in respect to the
        Notes and all  amounts  payable  under the  Insurance  Agreement  and to
        enforce  any  judgment  obtained  and  collect  from the  Issuer  monies
        adjudged due;

                   (ii sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or
        interest therein,  at one or more public or private Sales (as defined in
        Section 5.15  hereof)  called and  conducted in any manner  permitted by
        law;

          (iii file or record  all  assignments  that have not  previously  been
     recorded;

          (iv  institute  Proceedings  from  time to time  for the  complete  or
     partial foreclosure of this Indenture; and

                    (v  exercise  any  remedies  of a  secured  party  under the
        Uniform Commercial Code and take any other appropriate action to protect
        and enforce the rights and remedies of the Credit Enhancer hereunder.

               Following the payment in full of the Notes,  the Credit  Enhancer
shall  continue  to have all rights  and  privileges  provided  to it under this
Section and in all other  provisions of this Indenture,  until all amounts owing
to the Credit Enhancer have been paid in full.

        Section 4.13.  Repayment of Monies Held by Paying  Agent.  In connection
with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes,
all monies then held by any Person other than the  Indenture  Trustee  under the
provisions of this  Indenture  with respect to such Notes shall,  upon demand of
the Issuer, be paid to the Indenture Trustee to be held and applied according to
Section 3.05 and thereupon  such Paying Agent shall be released from all further
liability with respect to such monies.

        Section 4.14. Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of any Definitive
Notes,  the Issuer may  execute and upon its written  direction,  the  Indenture
Trustee may authenticate  and make available for delivery,  temporary Notes that
are printed,  lithographed,  typewritten,  photocopied or otherwise produced, in
any denomination,  substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of
which  they  are  issued  and  with  such  appropriate  insertions,   omissions,
substitutions  and other  variations  as the officers  executing  such Notes may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

        If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes to
be prepared without  unreasonable delay. After the preparation of the Definitive
Notes,  the temporary  Notes shall be  exchangeable  for  Definitive  Notes upon
surrender  of the  temporary  Notes at the  office or  agency  of the  Indenture
Trustee,  without charge to the Holder.  Upon surrender for  cancellation of any
one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture  Trustee
shall authenticate and make


                                              24

available for delivery,  in exchange  therefor,  Definitive  Notes of authorized
denominations  and of like  tenor  and  aggregate  principal  amount.  Until  so
exchanged,  such  temporary  Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same
benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

                                     Default and Remedies

        Section  5.01.  Events of  Default.  The  Issuer  shall  deliver  to the
Indenture  Trustee and the Credit  Enhancer,  within five days after learning of
the  occurrence  any event which with the giving of notice and the lapse of time
would become an Event of Default under clause (iii) of the  definition of "Event
of Default" written notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of its status
and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

        Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity;  Rescission and Annulment. If an
Event of Default should occur and be continuing or if the Master  Servicer shall
purchase  all of the  Home  Loans  pursuant  to  Section  8.08 of the  Servicing
Agreement,  then and in every such case the Indenture  Trustee or the Holders of
Notes representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all
Notes with the written  consent of the Credit  Enhancer,  or the Credit Enhancer
may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable,  by a notice in writing
to the Issuer (and to the Indenture  Trustee if given by Noteholders),  and upon
any such declaration the unpaid  principal  amount of such Notes,  together with
accrued and unpaid  interest  thereon  through the date of  acceleration,  shall
become immediately due and payable.

        At any time after such  declaration  of  acceleration  of maturity  with
respect to an Event of Default has been made and before a judgment or decree for
payment  of the  money  due  has  been  obtained  by the  Indenture  Trustee  as
hereinafter  in this  Article V provided,  the Holders of Notes  representing  a
majority of the aggregate  Note Balance of all Notes,  by written  notice to the
Issuer  and the  Indenture  Trustee  with  the  written  consent  of the  Credit
Enhancer,  or the Credit  Enhancer,  may in writing  waive the related  Event of
Default and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

          (i the Issuer has paid or deposited  with the Indenture  Trustee a sum
     sufficient to pay:

                      (A) all payments of principal of and interest on the Notes
               and all other  amounts  that would then be due  hereunder or upon
               the  Notes  if  the  Event  of  Default   giving   rise  to  such
               acceleration had not occurred; and

                      (B) all sums paid or  advanced  by the  Indenture  Trustee
               hereunder   and   the    reasonable    compensation,    expenses,
               disbursements  and  advances  of the  Indenture  Trustee  and its
               agents and counsel; and

                   (ii all Events of Default,  other than the  nonpayment of the
        principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such  acceleration,
        have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12.

        No such  rescission  shall affect any  subsequent  default or impair any
right consequent thereto.

          Section 5.03.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
     Indenture Trustee.

        (a) The  Issuer  covenants  that if  default  in the  payment of (i) any
interest on any Note when the same  becomes due and  payable,  and such  default
continues for a period of five days, or (ii) the principal of or any installment
of the  principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable,  the Issuer
shall, upon demand of the Indenture  Trustee,  pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders  of  Notes,  the  whole  amount  then due and  payable  on the Notes for
principal  and  interest,  with  interest  upon the  overdue  principal,  and in
addition  thereto such further  amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of  collection,  including the reasonable  compensation,  expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.

        (b) In case the Issuer  shall fail  forthwith  to pay such  amounts upon
such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust,  subject to the  provisions  of Section  10.17  hereof  may  institute  a
Proceeding for the  collection of the sums so due and unpaid,  and may prosecute
such  Proceeding to judgment or final  decree,  and may enforce the same against
the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes and collect in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes,  wherever
situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

        (c) If an Event of  Default  occurs  and is  continuing,  the  Indenture
Trustee  subject  to the  provisions  of  Section  10.17  hereof  may,  as  more
particularly provided in Section 5.04, in its discretion, proceed to protect and
enforce  its  rights  and the  rights of the  Noteholders,  by such  appropriate
Proceedings  as the Indenture  Trustee shall deem most  effective to protect and
enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or
agreement  in this  Indenture  or in aid of the  exercise  of any power  granted
herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested
in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

        (d) In case there shall be pending,  relative to the Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in
the Trust  Estate,  Proceedings  under Title 11 of the United States Code or any
other applicable  federal or state bankruptcy,  insolvency or other similar law,
or in case a receiver,  assignee  or trustee in  bankruptcy  or  reorganization,
liquidator,  sequestrator  or similar  official shall have been appointed for or
taken  possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person,
or in case of any other comparable judicial  Proceedings  relative to the Issuer
or other  obligor upon the Notes,  or to the creditors or property of the Issuer
or such other  obligor,  the  Indenture  Trustee,  irrespective  of whether  the
principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein  expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall
have made any  demand  pursuant  to the  provisions  of this  Section,  shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

                    (i to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole  amount
        of principal  and interest  owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and
        to file such other  papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
        in order to have the  claims of the  Indenture  Trustee  (including  any
        claim for  reasonable  compensation  to the  Indenture  Trustee and each
        predecessor  Indenture Trustee,  and their respective agents,  attorneys
        and counsel,  and for  reimbursement  of all  expenses  and  liabilities
        incurred, and all advances made, by the

        Indenture Trustee and each predecessor  Indenture  Trustee,  except as a
        result  of  negligence,  willful  misconduct  or bad  faith)  and of the
        Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

                   (ii unless  prohibited by applicable law and regulations,  to
        vote on behalf of the Holders of Notes in any  election of a trustee,  a
        standby  trustee  or Person  performing  similar  functions  in any such
        Proceedings;

                  (iii to  collect  and  receive  any  monies or other  property
        payable or  deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts
        received  with  respect  to the  claims  of the  Noteholders  and of the
        Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and

                   (iv to  file  such  proofs  of  claim  and  other  papers  or
        documents  as may be  necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
        of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes allowed in any judicial
        proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property;

and any trustee,  receiver,  liquidator,  custodian or other similar official in
any such  Proceeding is hereby  authorized by each of such  Noteholders  to make
payments to the Indenture Trustee,  and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee
shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders,  to pay to
the Indenture  Trustee such amounts as shall be  sufficient to cover  reasonable
compensation to the Indenture  Trustee,  each predecessor  Indenture Trustee and
their  respective  agents,  attorneys  and counsel,  and all other  expenses and
liabilities  incurred,  and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each
predecessor  Indenture  Trustee  except  as  a  result  of  negligence,  willful
misconduct or bad faith.

        (e) Nothing herein  contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture
Trustee to  authorize  or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of
any  Noteholder  any  plan  of   reorganization,   arrangement,   adjustment  or
composition  affecting  the Notes or the  rights  of any  Holder  thereof  or to
authorize  the  Indenture  Trustee  to  vote  in  respect  of the  claim  of any
Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election
of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

        (f) All rights of action and of asserting  claims under this  Indenture,
or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture  Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the  production  thereof in any trial or other
Proceedings relative thereto,  and any such action or proceedings  instituted by
the Indenture  Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express
trust,  and any  recovery of judgment,  subject to the payment of the  expenses,
disbursements  and  compensation  of the  Indenture  Trustee,  each  predecessor
Indenture  Trustee and their respective  agents and attorneys,  shall be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

        (g) In any  Proceedings  brought by the Indenture  Trustee (and also any
Proceedings  involving the  interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to
which the Indenture  Trustee shall be a party),  the Indenture  Trustee shall be
held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to
make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

     Section 5.04. Remedies;  Priorities.  (a) If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing,  the Indenture  Trustee subject to the provisions of
Section 10.17 hereof may with the

written consent of the Credit Enhancer, or shall at the written direction of the
Credit Enhancer, do one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.05):

                    (i institute  Proceedings  in its own name and as trustee of
        an express  trust for the  collection of all amounts then payable on the
        Notes  or  under  this  Indenture  with  respect  thereto,   whether  by
        declaration  or otherwise,  and all amounts  payable under the Insurance
        Agreement,  enforce any judgment  obtained,  and collect from the Issuer
        and any other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

                   (ii institute  Proceedings from time to time for the complete
        or  partial  foreclosure  of this  Indenture  with  respect to the Trust
        Estate;

                  (iii  exercise any  remedies of a secured  party under the UCC
        and take any other appropriate  action to protect and enforce the rights
        and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes; and

                   (iv sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or
        interest  therein,  at one or more  public or private  sales  called and
        conducted in any manner permitted by law;

provided,  however,  that  the  Indenture  Trustee  may not  sell  or  otherwise
liquidate  the  Trust  Estate  following  an Event of  Default,  unless  (A) the
Indenture  Trustee  obtains the consent of the Holders of 100% of the  aggregate
Note  Balance of the Notes and the Credit  Enhancer,  which  consent will not be
unreasonably  withheld,  (B) the proceeds of such Sale  distributable to Holders
are  sufficient  to  discharge  in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon the
Notes for principal  and interest and to reimburse  the Credit  Enhancer for any
amounts drawn under the Credit Enhancement  Instrument and any other amounts due
the Credit Enhancer under the Insurance  Agreement or (C) the Indenture  Trustee
determines that the Home Loans will not continue to provide sufficient funds for
the payment of  principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become
due if the  Notes  had not been  declared  due and  payable,  and the  Indenture
Trustee  obtains the consent of the Credit  Enhancer,  which consent will not be
unreasonably  withheld,  and of the  Holders  of 66 2/3% of the  aggregate  Note
Balance of the Notes.  In determining  such  sufficiency or  insufficiency  with
respect to clause (B) and (C), the Indenture  Trustee may, but need not,  obtain
and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm
of national  reputation as to the  feasibility of such proposed action and as to
the  sufficiency  of the Trust  Estate  for such  purpose.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  so long as a  Servicing  Default has not  occurred,  any Sale of the
Trust Estate shall be made subject to the continued  servicing of the Home Loans
by the Master Servicer as provided in the Servicing Agreement.

        (b) If the Indenture  Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to
this Article V, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

          FIRST: to the Indenture Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.07;

          SECOND:  to the Holders of the Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the
          Notes for  interest,  according to the amounts due and payable on such
          Notes for interest from amounts available in the Trust Estate for such
          Noteholders;


                                              29

<PAGE>



          THIRD: to Holders of the Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes
          for  principal,  from  amounts  available in the Trust Estate for such
          Noteholders, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for
          principal, until the related Note Balances of the Notes are reduced to
          zero;

          FOURTH: [reserved];

          FIFTH:  to the  payment  of all  amounts  due and owing to the  Credit
          Enhancer under the Insurance Agreement;

          SIXTH: to the  Certificate  Paying Agent for amounts due under Article
          VIII of the Trust Agreement; and

          SEVENTH: to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Issuer or any
          other person legally entitled thereto.

        The  Indenture  Trustee may fix a record  date and payment  date for any
payment to  Noteholders  pursuant to this Section  5.04. At least 15 days before
such record date, the Indenture  Trustee shall mail to each  Noteholder a notice
that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

        Section  5.05.Optional  Preservation  of the Trust Estate.  If the Notes
have been declared to be due and payable  under Section 5.02  following an Event
of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled,  the  Indenture  Trustee may, but need not,  (but shall at the written
direction of the Credit  Enhancer) elect to take and maintain  possession of the
Trust Estate.  It is the desire of the parties hereto and the  Noteholders  that
there be at all times  sufficient  funds for the  payment  of  principal  of and
interest on the Notes and other  obligations of the Issuer including  payment to
the Credit  Enhancer,  and the  Indenture  Trustee  shall take such  desire into
account when determining  whether or not to take and maintain  possession of the
Trust  Estate.  In  determining  whether to take and maintain  possession of the
Trust Estate,  the Indenture  Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an
opinion of an  Independent  investment  banking or  accounting  firm of national
reputation  as to  the  feasibility  of  such  proposed  action  and  as to  the
sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

        Section  5.06.Limitation  of Suits. No Holder of any Note shall have any
right to institute any Proceeding,  judicial or otherwise,  with respect to this
Indenture,  or for the  appointment  of a receiver or trustee,  or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless and subject to the provisions of Section 10.17 hereof:

               (i  such  Holder  has  previously  given  written  notice  to the
          Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

                  (ii the  Holders  of not less than 25% of the  aggregate  Note
        Balance of the Notes have made written request to the Indenture  Trustee
        to institute such  Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its
        own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;



                                              30

<PAGE>



                 (iii such  Holder or  Holders  have  offered  to the  Indenture
        Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
        to be incurred in complying with such request;

                  (iv the  Indenture  Trustee  for 60 days after its  receipt of
        such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such
        Proceedings; and

                   (v no direction  inconsistent  with such written  request has
        been given to the  Indenture  Trustee  during such 60-day  period by the
        Holders of a majority of the  aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes or by
        the Credit Enhancer.

It is  understood  and intended  that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have
any right in any manner  whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this  Indenture  to  affect,  disturb  or  prejudice  the rights of any other
Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain  priority or preference  over
any other  Holders or to enforce any right under this  Indenture,  except in the
manner herein provided.

        In  the  event  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall  receive  conflicting  or
inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes,
each  representing  less than a majority of the  aggregate  Note  Balance of the
Notes,  the Indenture  Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action,
if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

        Section  5.07.Unconditional  Rights of Noteholders to Receive  Principal
and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder
of any Note  shall have the  right,  which is  absolute  and  unconditional,  to
receive  payment of the  principal of and  interest,  if any, on such Note on or
after  the  respective  due  dates  thereof  expressed  in such  Note or in this
Indenture and to institute  suit for the  enforcement  of any such payment,  and
such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

        Section  5.08.Restoration  of  Rights  and  Remedies.  If the  Indenture
Trustee or any  Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy  under  this  Indenture  and such  Proceeding  has been  discontinued  or
abandoned  for any  reason or has been  determined  adversely  to the  Indenture
Trustee  or to such  Noteholder,  then and in every  such case the  Issuer,  the
Indenture  Trustee and the Noteholders  shall,  subject to any  determination in
such  Proceeding,  be restored  severally and  respectively to their  respective
former  positions  hereunder,  and  thereafter  all rights and  remedies  of the
Indenture  Trustee  and  the  Noteholders  shall  continue  as  though  no  such
Proceeding had been instituted.

        Section 5.09.Rights and Remedies  Cumulative.  No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture  Trustee,  the Credit Enhancer or to
the  Noteholders  is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,  and
every right and remedy shall, to the extent  permitted by law, be cumulative and
in addition to every other right and remedy given  hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or  otherwise.  The  assertion or employment of any
right or remedy  hereunder,  or  otherwise,  shall not  prevent  the  concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

        Section 5.10.Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the
Indenture Trustee, the Credit Enhancer or any Holder of any Note to exercise any
right or remedy  accruing  upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right
or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence
therein.  Every  right  and  remedy  given  by this  Article  V or by law to the
Indenture  Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and
as  often  as may  be  deemed  expedient,  by the  Indenture  Trustee  or by the
Noteholders, as the case may be.

        Section  5.11.Control by  Noteholders.  The Holders of a majority of the
aggregate Note Balance of Notes with the consent of the Credit Enhancer,  or the
Credit  Enhancer (so long as no Credit  Enhancer  Default exists) shall have the
right to direct the time,  method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any
remedy  available  to  the  Indenture  Trustee  with  respect  to the  Notes  or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that:

               (i such  direction  shall not be in conflict with any rule of law
          or with this Indenture;

                  (ii  subject  to  the  express  terms  of  Section  5.04,  any
        direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate
        shall be by  Holders  of Notes  representing  not less  than 100% of the
        aggregate Note Balance of Notes with the consent of the Credit Enhancer,
        or the Credit Enhancer (so long as no Credit Enhancer Default exists);

                 (iii if the  conditions  set  forth in  Section  5.05 have been
        satisfied  and the Indenture  Trustee  elects to retain the Trust Estate
        pursuant to such Section, then any direction to the Indenture Trustee by
        Holders  of Notes  representing  less  than 100% of the  aggregate  Note
        Balance of Notes to sell or  liquidate  the Trust  Estate shall be of no
        force and effect; and

                  (iv the  Indenture  Trustee may take any other  action  deemed
        proper  by the  Indenture  Trustee  that is not  inconsistent  with such
        direction.

Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section,  subject to
Section 6.01, the Indenture  Trustee need not take any action that it determines
might involve it in liability or might materially adversely affect the rights of
any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

        Section  5.12.Waiver of Past Defaults.  Prior to the  declaration of the
acceleration  of the  maturity  of the Notes as provided  in Section  5.02,  the
Holders of Notes of not less than a majority of the  aggregate  Note  Balance of
the Notes with the consent of the Credit  Enhancer,  or the Credit  Enhancer (so
long as no Credit  Enhancer  Default exists) may waive any past Event of Default
and its  consequences  except an Event of Default (a) with respect to payment of
principal  of or interest on any of the Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or
provision  hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
Holder of each Note. In the case of any such waiver,  the Issuer,  the Indenture
Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions
and rights  hereunder,  respectively;  but no such  waiver  shall  extend to any
subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.



                                              32

<PAGE>



        Upon any such waiver,  any Event of Default  arising  therefrom shall be
deemed to have been cured and not to have  occurred,  for every  purpose of this
Indenture;  but no such waiver shall extend to any  subsequent or other Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

        Section 5.13.Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree,
and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's  acceptance thereof shall be deemed
to have agreed,  that any court may in its discretion  require,  in any suit for
the  enforcement  of any right or remedy  under this  Indenture,  or in any suit
against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as
Indenture  Trustee,  the  filing  by any  party  litigant  in  such  suit  of an
undertaking  to pay the  costs of such  suit,  and that  such  court  may in its
discretion  assess  reasonable  costs,  including  reasonable  attorneys'  fees,
against  any party  litigant  in such suit,  having due regard to the merits and
good  faith of the  claims or  defenses  made by such  party  litigant;  but the
provisions  of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any suit  instituted  by
the Indenture  Trustee,  (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder,  or group of
Noteholders,  in  each  case  holding  in the  aggregate  more  than  10% of the
aggregate Note Balance of the Notes or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder
for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or
after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture.

        Section  5.14.Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon,
or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of,
any stay or extension  law  wherever  enacted,  now or at any time  hereafter in
force,  that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture;  and
the Issuer (to the extent that it may  lawfully do so) hereby  expressly  waives
all  benefit  or  advantage  of any such law,  and  covenants  that it shall not
hinder,  delay or impede  the  execution  of any  power  herein  granted  to the
Indenture Trustee,  but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power
as though no such law had been enacted.

        Section  5.15.Sale  of Trust  Estate.  (a) The power to effect any sale,
liquidation  or other  disposition (a "Sale") of any portion of the Trust Estate
pursuant to Section 5.04 is expressly  subject to the provisions of Section 5.05
and this Section 5.15.  The power to effect any such Sale shall not be exhausted
by any one or more Sales as to any portion of the Trust Estate remaining unsold,
but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate shall have been sold
or all  amounts  payable  on the Notes and under  this  Indenture  and under the
Insurance Agreement shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee may from time to
time postpone any public Sale by public  announcement made at the time and place
of such Sale.  The Indenture  Trustee hereby  expressly  waives its right to any
amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale.

        (b) The  Indenture  Trustee shall not in any private Sale sell the Trust
Estate, or any portion thereof, unless:

               (1) the Holders of all Notes and the Credit Enhancer  consent to,
          or direct the Indenture Trustee to make, such Sale, or

               (2) the  proceeds  of such Sale would be not less than the entire
amount  which  would  be  payable  to  the  Noteholders  under  the  Notes,  the
Certificateholders  under the Certificates and the Credit Enhancer in respect of
amounts drawn under the Credit Enhancement Instrument and


                                              33

<PAGE>



any other amounts due the Credit Enhancer under the Insurance Agreement, in full
payment  thereof in  accordance  with  Section  5.02,  on the Payment  Date next
succeeding the date of such Sale, or

               (3) the Indenture  Trustee  determines,  in its sole  discretion,
that the  conditions for retention of the Trust Estate set forth in Section 5.05
cannot be satisfied (in making any such determination, the Indenture Trustee may
rely upon an opinion of an  Independent  investment  banking  firm  obtained and
delivered as provided in Section 5.05), and the Credit Enhancer consents to such
Sale,  which  consent  will  not  be  unreasonably   withheld  and  the  Holders
representing at least 66-2/3% of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes consent
to such Sale.

The purchase by the Indenture  Trustee of all or any portion of the Trust Estate
at a private  Sale shall not be deemed a Sale or other  disposition  thereof for
purposes of this Section 5.15(b).

        (c) Unless the Holders and the Credit Enhancer have otherwise  consented
or directed the Indenture  Trustee,  at any public Sale of all or any portion of
the Trust  Estate at which a minimum  bid equal to or  greater  than the  amount
described in paragraph (2) of  subsection  (b) of this Section 5.15 has not been
established  by the  Indenture  Trustee and no Person bids an amount equal to or
greater than such amount,  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall bid an amount at least
$1.00 more than the highest other bid.

       (d)  In connection with a Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate:

               (1) any  Holder  or  Holders  of  Notes  may bid for and with the
consent of the Credit Enhancer  purchase the property offered for sale, and upon
compliance  with the terms of sale may hold,  retain and  possess and dispose of
such property,  without further accountability,  and may, in paying the purchase
money therefor, deliver any Notes or claims for interest thereon in lieu of cash
up to the amount  which  shall,  upon  distribution  of the net proceeds of such
sale, be payable thereon, and such Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon
shall be less than the amount due  thereon,  shall be  returned  to the  Holders
thereof after being appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;

               (2) the  Indenture  Trustee may bid for and acquire the  property
offered  for Sale in  connection  with any Sale  thereof,  and,  subject  to any
requirements  of, and to the extent  permitted by,  applicable law in connection
therewith,  may  purchase  all or any  portion of the Trust  Estate in a private
sale, and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase
price by crediting  the gross Sale price against the sum of (A) the amount which
would be  distributable  to the Holders of the Notes and Holders of Certificates
and amounts owing to the Credit  Enhancer as a result of such Sale in accordance
with Section  5.04(b) on the Payment Date next  succeeding the date of such Sale
and (B) the expenses of the Sale and of any Proceedings in connection  therewith
which are  reimbursable  to it,  without being  required to produce the Notes in
order to  complete  any  such  Sale or in  order  for the net  Sale  price to be
credited  against  such Notes,  and any  property  so acquired by the  Indenture
Trustee shall be held and dealt with by it in accordance  with the provisions of
this Indenture;



                                              34

<PAGE>



               (3)  the   Indenture   Trustee   shall  execute  and  deliver  an
appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of
the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale thereof;

               (4) the  Indenture  Trustee is hereby  irrevocably  appointed the
agent and attorney-in- fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in
any portion of the Trust Estate in connection  with a Sale thereof,  and to take
all action necessary to effect such Sale; and

               (5) no purchaser or  transferee  at such a Sale shall be bound to
ascertain the Indenture  Trustee's  authority,  inquire into the satisfaction of
any conditions precedent or see to the application of any monies.

        Section  5.16.Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee's right to seek and
recover  judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture  shall not be affected by
the seeking,  obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect
to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies
of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of
any judgment by the Indenture  Trustee  against the Issuer or by the levy of any
execution  under such  judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any
of the assets of the Issuer.  Any money or property  collected by the  Indenture
Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.04(b).

        Section  5.17.Performance  and Enforcement of Certain  Obligations.  (a)
Promptly  following a written  request from the Credit Enhancer or the Indenture
Trustee with the written consent of the Credit Enhancer to do so, the Issuer, in
its capacity as holder of the Home Loans, shall, with the written consent of the
Credit  Enhancer,  take all such  lawful  action as the  Indenture  Trustee  may
request to cause the Issuer to compel or secure the  performance  and observance
by the  Seller  and the  Master  Servicer,  as  applicable,  of  each  of  their
obligations  to the Issuer under or in  connection  with the Home Loan  Purchase
Agreement  and the  Servicing  Agreement,  and to  exercise  any and all rights,
remedies,  powers and  privileges  lawfully  available to the Issuer under or in
connection with the Home Loan Purchase Agreement and the Servicing  Agreement to
the extent and in the manner  directed by the Indenture  Trustee,  as pledgee of
the Home Loans,  including the transmission of notices of default on the part of
the Seller or the Master  Servicer  thereunder  and the  institution of legal or
administrative  actions or  proceedings  to compel or secure  performance by the
Seller or the Master Servicer of each of their  obligations  under the Home Loan
Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement.

        (b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee,  as  pledgee  of the Home  Loans,  subject  to the rights of the Credit
Enhancer  under  the  Servicing  Agreement  may,  and  at the  direction  (which
direction  shall be in writing or by telephone  (confirmed  in writing  promptly
thereafter))  of the  Holders of 66-2/3% of the  aggregate  Note  Balance of the
Notes shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the
Issuer against the Seller or the Master Servicer under or in connection with the
Home Loan Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, including the right or
power to take any action to compel or secure  performance  or  observance by the
Seller or the Master Servicer,  as the case may be, of each of their obligations
to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent,  request,  notice,  direction,
approval,  extension or waiver under the Home Loan  Purchase  Agreement  and the
Servicing  Agreement,  as the case may be,  and any right of the  Issuer to take
such action shall not be suspended. In connection


                                              35

therewith,  as determined by the  Indenture  Trustee,  the Issuer shall take all
actions  necessary  to effect the  transfer  of the Home Loans to the  Indenture
Trustee.

        Section 6.01.Duties of Indenture Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing,  the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and
powers vested in it by this  Indenture 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.

        (b)  Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

                   (i the  Indenture  Trustee  undertakes to perform such duties
        and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and
        no implied  covenants or  obligations  shall be read into this Indenture
        against the Indenture Trustee; and

                  (ii in the  absence  of bad faith on its part,  the  Indenture
        Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
        correctness of the opinions  expressed  therein,  upon  certificates  or
        opinions  furnished  to the  Indenture  Trustee  and  conforming  to the
        requirements of this  Indenture;  however,  the Indenture  Trustee shall
        examine the certificates  and opinions to determine  whether or not they
        conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

        (c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own
negligent  action,  its  own  negligent  failure  to  act  or  its  own  willful
misconduct, except that:

               (i this  paragraph  does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of
          this Section 6.01;

                  (ii the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of
        judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved
        that the Indenture  Trustee was negligent in ascertaining  the pertinent
        facts; and

                 (iii the Indenture  Trustee shall not be liable with respect to
        any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance  with a
        direction  received by it (A)  pursuant to Section  5.11 or (B) from the
        Credit  Enhancer,  which it is  entitled  to give under any of the Basic
        Documents.

        (d) The Indenture  Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the  Indenture  Trustee  may agree in writing  with the
Issuer.

        (e) Money held in trust by the Indenture  Trustee need not be segregated
from  other  funds  except to the  extent  required  by law or the terms of this
Indenture or the Trust Agreement.

        (f) No provision of this Indenture  shall require the Indenture  Trustee
to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise  incur  financial  liability in the
performance  of any of its duties  hereunder  or in the  exercise  of any of its
rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable  grounds to believe that repayment
of such  funds or  adequate  indemnity  against  such risk or  liability  is not
reasonably assured to it.


                                              37

        (g)  Every  provision  of this  Indenture  relating  to the  conduct  or
affecting  the liability of or affording  protection  to the  Indenture  Trustee
shall be subject to the  provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the
TIA.

        Section 6.02.Rights of Indenture Trustee.  (a) The Indenture Trustee may
rely on any  document  believed  by it to be genuine  and to have been signed or
presented by the proper person.  The Indenture  Trustee need not investigate any
fact or matter stated in the document.

        (b) Before the Indenture  Trustee acts or refrains  from acting,  it may
require an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee
shall not be liable  for any  action it takes or omits to take in good  faith in
reliance on an Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

        (c) The  Indenture  Trustee  may  execute  any of the  trusts  or powers
hereunder  or perform  any duties  hereunder  either  directly  or by or through
agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee,  and the Indenture  Trustee shall
not be  responsible  for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the
supervision of, any such agent,  attorney,  custodian or nominee  appointed with
due care by it hereunder.

        (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or
omits to take in good faith  which it believes  to be  authorized  or within its
rights or powers;  provided,  however, that the Indenture Trustee's conduct does
not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

        (e) The Indenture  Trustee may consult with  counsel,  and the advice or
opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters  relating to this Indenture and
the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability
in respect to any action  taken,  omitted or  suffered by it  hereunder  in good
faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

        Section  6.03.Individual  Rights of  Indenture  Trustee.  The  Indenture
Trustee in its  individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates  with the same
rights  it would  have if it were not  Indenture  Trustee.  Any Note  Registrar,
co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.  However,  the
Indenture Trustee must comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12.

        Section 6.04.Indenture Trustee's Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee shall
not be (i)  responsible  for and makes no  representation  as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes,  (ii)  accountable for the Issuer's use
of the proceeds  from the Notes or (iii)  responsible  for any  statement of the
Issuer in the Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of
the Notes or in the Notes  other than the  Indenture  Trustee's  certificate  of
authentication.

        Section  6.05.Notice of Event of Default.  If an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing  and if it is known to a Responsible  Officer of the Indenture
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Credit Enhancer.
The  Indenture  Trustee  shall  mail to each  Noteholder  notice of the Event of
Default  within  90 days  after  it  occurs.  Except  in the case of an Event of
Default  in payment of  principal  of or  interest  on any Note,  the  Indenture
Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible
Officers  in  good  faith  determines  that  withholding  the  notice  is in the
interests of Noteholders.


                                              38

        Section  6.06.Reports  by Indenture  Trustee to Holders.  The  Indenture
Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder such  information as may be required to
enable  such holder to prepare its  federal  and state  income tax  returns.  In
addition,  upon the  Issuer's  written  request,  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall
promptly  furnish  information  reasonably  requested  by  the  Issuer  that  is
reasonably  available to the  Indenture  Trustee to enable the Issuer to perform
its federal and state income tax reporting obligations.

        Section  6.07.Compensation  and  Indemnity.  The Issuer shall pay to the
Indenture Trustee on each Payment Date reasonable compensation for its services.
The  Indenture  Trustee  shall be  compensated  and  indemnified  by the  Master
Servicer in  accordance  with Section 6.06 of the Servicing  Agreement,  and all
amounts owing to the Indenture  Trustee hereunder in excess of such amount shall
be paid solely as provided in Section 3.05 hereof (subject to the priorities set
forth therein). The Indenture Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any
law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse
the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made
by it,  including costs of collection,  in addition to the  compensation for its
services.  Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses,
disbursements  and  advances  of  the  Indenture   Trustee's  agents,   counsel,
accountants  and  experts.  The Issuer shall  indemnify  the  Indenture  Trustee
against  any and all loss,  liability  or expense  (including  attorneys'  fees)
incurred  by it in  connection  with the  administration  of this  trust and the
performance  of its duties  hereunder.  The  Indenture  Trustee shall notify the
Issuer  promptly  of any claim for which it may seek  indemnity.  Failure by the
Indenture  Trustee to so notify the Issuer  shall not  relieve the Issuer of its
obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend any such claim, and the Indenture
Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses
of such  counsel.  The  Issuer is not  obligated  to  reimburse  any  expense or
indemnify  against any loss,  liability  or expense  incurred  by the  Indenture
Trustee through the Indenture  Trustee's own willful  misconduct,  negligence or
bad faith.

        The Issuer's  payment  obligations to the Indenture  Trustee pursuant to
this  Section  6.07 shall  survive the  discharge  of this  Indenture.  When the
Indenture  Trustee  incurs  expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default
specified  in clause (iv) or (v) of the  definition  thereof with respect to the
Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under
Title 11 of the  United  States  Code or any other  applicable  federal or state
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

        Section 6.08.Replacement of Indenture Trustee. No resignation or removal
of the Indenture  Trustee and no  appointment of a successor  Indenture  Trustee
shall become  effective  until the  acceptance of  appointment  by the successor
Indenture  Trustee  pursuant to this Section  6.08.  The  Indenture  Trustee may
resign at any time by so  notifying  the  Issuer and the  Credit  Enhancer.  The
Holders of a majority of the  aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes or the Credit
Enhancer may remove the Indenture  Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee
and the Credit  Enhancer  and may appoint a  successor  Indenture  Trustee.  The
Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

               (i the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

               (ii the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;



                                              39

<PAGE>



               (iii a  receiver  or other  public  officer  takes  charge of the
          Indenture Trustee or its property; or

               (iv the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

        If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in
the office of the  Indenture  Trustee for any reason (the  Indenture  Trustee in
such event being  referred to herein as the  retiring  Indenture  Trustee),  the
Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor  Indenture Trustee with the consent of
the  Credit  Enhancer  which  consent  will  not be  unreasonably  withheld.  In
addition,  the  Indenture  Trustee  will  resign  to  avoid  being  directly  or
indirectly controlled by the Issuer.

        A successor  Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer.  Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective,
and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties
of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.  The successor  Indenture Trustee
shall mail a notice of its  succession to  Noteholders.  The retiring  Indenture
Trustee shall promptly  transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to
the successor Indenture Trustee.

        If a successor  Indenture  Trustee  does not take office  within 60 days
after the  retiring  Indenture  Trustee  resigns  or is  removed,  the  retiring
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note
Balance of the Notes may petition any court of  competent  jurisdiction  for the
appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

        If the  Indenture  Trustee  fails  to  comply  with  Section  6.11,  any
Noteholder may petition any court of competent  jurisdiction  for the removal of
the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

        Notwithstanding  the  replacement of the Indenture  Trustee  pursuant to
this Section, the Issuer's obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the
benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

        Section  6.09.Successor  Indenture  Trustee by Merger.  If the Indenture
Trustee  consolidates  with,  merges  or  converts  into,  or  transfers  all or
substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation
or banking  association,  the  resulting,  surviving or  transferee  corporation
without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided, that
such  corporation  or  banking  association  shall be  otherwise  qualified  and
eligible  under  Section 6.11.  The  Indenture  Trustee shall provide the Rating
Agencies written notice of any such transaction after the Closing Date.

        In case at the time such  successor or successors by merger,  conversion
or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by
this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered,
any such  successor  to the  Indenture  Trustee  may  adopt the  certificate  of
authentication   of  any  predecessor   trustee,   and  deliver  such  Notes  so
authenticated;  and in case at that  time any of the  Notes  shall not have been
authenticated,  any successor to the  Indenture  Trustee may  authenticate  such
Notes  either  in the name of any  predecessor  hereunder  or in the name of the
successor  to the  Indenture  Trustee;  and in all such cases such  certificates
shall have the full


                                              40

force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this  Indenture  provided that the
certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

        Section  6.10.Appointment of Co-Indenture  Trustee or Separate Indenture
Trustee.  (a)  Notwithstanding  any other  provisions of this Indenture,  at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal  requirement of any  jurisdiction  in
which any part of the Trust  Estate may at the time be  located,  the  Indenture
Trustee  shall have the power and may execute and  deliver  all  instruments  to
appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or  co-trustees,  or separate
trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust, and to vest
in such  Person  or  Persons,  in such  capacity  and  for  the  benefit  of the
Noteholders,  such title to the Trust Estate, or any part thereof,  and, subject
to the other  provisions  of this  Section,  such powers,  duties,  obligations,
rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider  necessary or desirable.
No co-trustee or separate trustee  hereunder shall be required to meet the terms
of  eligibility  as a  successor  trustee  under  Section  6.11 and no notice to
Noteholders of the  appointment  of any co-trustee or separate  trustee shall be
required under Section 6.08 hereof.

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

                   (i all rights,  powers,  duties and obligations  conferred or
        imposed upon the  Indenture  Trustee  shall be conferred or imposed upon
        and  exercised or performed by the  Indenture  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
        Indenture  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 the Indenture  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 Estate 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 Indenture Trustee;

               (ii no trustee  hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of
          any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

                 (iii  the  Indenture   Trustee  may  at  any  time  accept  the
        resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

        (c) Any notice,  request or other writing given to the Indenture 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 VI. 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
Indenture Trustee or separately,  as may be provided therein, subject to all the
provisions of this  Indenture,  specifically  including  every provision of this
Indenture  relating to the conduct of,  affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Indenture Trustee.  Every such instrument shall be filed with
the Indenture Trustee.



                                              41

<PAGE>



        (d) Any separate  trustee or co-trustee  may at any time  constitute the
Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee,  to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

        Section 6.11.Eligibility;  Disqualification. The Indenture Trustee shall
at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA ss. 310(a).  The Indenture  Trustee
shall have a combined  capital and surplus of at least  $50,000,000 as set forth
in its most recent  published  annual  report of condition  and it or its parent
shall have a  long-term  debt rating of A or better by  Moody's.  The  Indenture
Trustee  shall comply with TIA ss.  310(b),  including  the  optional  provision
permitted by the second sentence of TIA ss. 310(b)(9);  provided,  however, that
there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA ss. 310(b)(1) any indenture or
indentures  under which other  securities of the Issuer are  outstanding  if the
requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA ss. 310(b)(1) are met.

        Section  6.12.Preferential  Collection  of Claims  Against  Issuer.  The
Indenture  Trustee  shall  comply with TIA ss.  311(a),  excluding  any creditor
relationship  listed in TIA ss. 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to TIA ss. 311(a) to the extent indicated.

        Section  6.13.Representations  and  Warranties.  The  Indenture  Trustee
hereby represents that:

                (i) The Indenture  Trustee is duly organized,  validly  existing
        and in good standing  under the laws of the State of New York with power

        properties are currently owned and such business is presently conducted.

               (ii) The Indenture Trustee has the power and authority to execute
        and  deliver  this  Indenture  and to  carry  out  its  terms;  and  the
        execution,  delivery and  performance  of this  Indenture have been duly
        authorized by the Indenture Trustee by all necessary corporate action.

               (iii) The consummation of the  transactions  contemplated by this
        Indenture and the  fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict with,
        result  in any  breach  of  any  of the  terms  and  provisions  of,  or
        constitute  (with or without  notice or lapse of time) a default  under,
        the articles of organization  or bylaws of the Indenture  Trustee or any
        agreement or other instrument to which the Indenture  Trustee is a party
        or by which it is bound.

               (iv) To the  Indenture  Trustee's  best  knowledge,  there are no
        proceedings or  investigations  pending or threatened  before any court,
        regulatory   body,   administrative   agency   or   other   governmental
        instrumentality  having  jurisdiction  over the Indenture Trustee or its
        properties:  (A) asserting the  invalidity of this Indenture (B) seeking
        to prevent the consummation of any of the  transactions  contemplated by
        this  Indenture  or (C) seeking any  determination  or ruling that might
        materially and adversely affect the performance by the Indenture Trustee
        of its  obligations  under, or the validity or  enforceability  of, this
        Indenture.

                (v) The  Indenture  Trustee  does not have notice of any adverse
        claim (as such  terms  are used in  Delaware  UCC  Section  8-302)  with
        respect to the Home Loans.

     Section  6.14.Directions  to Indenture  Trustee.  The Indenture  Trustee is
hereby directed:

     (a) to accept the pledge of the Home Loans and hold the assets of the Trust
in trust for the Noteholders and the Credit Enhancer;

     (b) to  authenticate  and  deliver  the  Notes  substantially  in the  form
prescribed by Exhibit A in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

     (c) to take all other actions as shall be required to be taken by the terms
of this Indenture.

        Section  6.15.Indenture  Trustee  May  Own  Securities.   The  Indenture
Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of  Securities  with the same  rights  it  would  have if it were not  Indenture
Trustee.

        Section  7.01.Issuer to Furnish Indenture Trustee Names and Addresses of
Noteholders.  The Issuer will furnish or cause to be furnished to the  Indenture
Trustee (a) not more than five days after each Record Date, a list, in such form
as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably  require,  of the names and addresses of
the Holders of Notes as of such Record Date and,  (b) at such other times as the
Indenture Trustee and the Credit Enhancer may request in writing, within 30 days
after  receipt by the  Issuer of any such  request,  a list of similar  form and
content  as of a date not more  than 10 days  prior  to the  time  such  list is
furnished;  provided, however, that so long as the Indenture Trustee is the Note
Registrar, no such list shall be required to be furnished.

        Section 7.02.Preservation of Information; Communications to Noteholders.
(a) The Indenture Trustee shall preserve,  in as current a form as is reasonably

and the names and  addresses  of  Holders  of Notes  received  by the  Indenture

the trust created  hereby  continue  beyond the  expiration of 21 years from the
death  of the  survivor  of the  descendants  of  Joseph  P.  Kennedy,  the late

        Section  8.05.Release of Trust Estate. (a) Subject to the payment of its
fees  and  expenses,  the  Indenture  Trustee  may,  and  when  required  by the
provisions of this Indenture shall, execute instruments to release property from

        Section 9.01.Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders. (a)
Without  the  consent of the  Holders of any Notes but with prior  notice to the
Rating Agencies and the Credit Enhancer,  the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee,
when  authorized by an Issuer  Request,  at any time and from time to time,  may
enter into one or more  indentures  supplemental  hereto (which shall conform to
the  provisions  of the  Trust  Indenture  Act as in  force  at the  date of the
execution  thereof),  in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee,  for any of
the following purposes:

                   (i to correct or amplify the  description  of any property at
        any time  subject  to the lien of this  Indenture,  or better to assure,
        convey and confirm unto the  Indenture  Trustee any property  subject or
        required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to
        the lien of this Indenture additional property;

                  (ii  to  evidence  the  succession,  in  compliance  with  the
        applicable  provisions  hereof, of another person to the Issuer, and the
        assumption  by any such  successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein
        and in the Notes contained;

                 (iii to add to the covenants of the Issuer,  for the benefit of
        the Holders of the Notes or the Credit  Enhancer,  or to  surrender  any
        right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer;

               (iv to convey, transfer,  assign, mortgage or pledge any property
          to or with the Indenture Trustee;

                   (v to cure any ambiguity, to correct any error, or to correct
        or supplement any provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that
        may  be  inconsistent   with  any  other  provision  herein  or  in  any
        supplemental indenture;

                  (vi to make any other  provisions  with  respect to matters or
        questions arising under this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture;
        provided, that such action shall not materially and adversely affect the
        interests of the Holders of the Notes or the Credit Enhancer;

                 (vii  to  evidence  and  provide  for  the  acceptance  of  the
        appointment  hereunder by a successor  trustee with respect to the Notes
        and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall
        be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by
        more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI; or

                (viii to  modify,  eliminate  or add to the  provisions  of this
        Indenture   to  such  extent  as  shall  be   necessary  to  effect  the
        qualification  of this  Indenture  under  the TIA or under  any  similar
        federal  statute  hereafter  enacted and to add to this  Indenture  such
        other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA;



                                              48

provided,  however,  that no such  indenture  supplements  shall be entered into
unless the  Indenture  Trustee  shall have  received an Opinion of Counsel  that
entering into such indenture  supplement will not have any material  adverse tax
consequences to the Noteholders.

        The Indenture  Trustee is hereby  authorized to join in the execution of
any such supplemental  indenture and to make any further appropriate  agreements
and stipulations that may be therein contained.

        (b) The Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee,  when authorized by an Issuer
Request,  may,  also  without the consent of any of the Holders of the Notes but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and the Credit Enhancer,  enter into an
indenture  or  indentures  supplemental  hereto  for the  purpose  of adding any
provisions  to, or changing in any manner or  eliminating  any of the provisions
of, this  Indenture  or of  modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of
the Notes under this Indenture;  provided,  however, that such action shall not,
as  evidenced  by an Opinion of Counsel,  (i)  adversely  affect in any material
respect the interests of any Noteholder or the Credit Enhancer or (ii) cause the
Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax.

        (c) The Issuer and the  Indenture  Trustee  shall,  as  directed  by the
Holders of  Certificates  which  represent not less than 100% of the Certificate
Percentage Interests thereof, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental
hereto for the purpose of providing  for the issuance of one or more  additional
classes of Notes  entitled to payments  derived  solely from all or a portion of
the payments to which the  Certificates  issued on the Closing Date  pursuant to
the Trust Agreement are entitled; provided, however, that such action shall not,
as  evidenced  by an Opinion of Counsel,  (i)  adversely  affect in any material
respect the interests of any Noteholder or the Credit Enhancer or (ii) cause the
Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax. Each such class of Notes shall be a
non-recourse  obligation  of the Issuer and shall be entitled  to  interest  and
principal in such amounts,  and to such security for the repayment  thereof,  as
shall be specified in such amendment or amendments. Promptly after the execution
by the  Issuer and the  Indenture  Trustee of any  amendments  pursuant  to this
Section or the creation of a new indenture and the issuance of the related class
or classes of Notes,  the Issuer  shall  require the  Indenture  Trustee to give
notice to the  Holders of the Notes and the  Rating  Agencies  setting  forth in
general terms the substance of the provisions of such amendment.  Any failure of
the  Indenture  Trustee  to  provide  such  notice  as is  required  under  this
paragraph,  or any  defect  therein,  shall not,  however,  in any way impair or
affect the  validity of such  amendment  or any class of Notes  issued  pursuant
thereto.  Unless the Credit Enhancer agrees in writing, (i) any classes of Notes
issued  pursuant  to a  supplemental  indenture  shall  not be  entitled  to the
insurance provided by the Credit Enhancement  Instrument and (ii) the Holders of
any such  classes of Notes shall be  entitled  only to such  distributions  or a
portion of such  distributions  as the Holders would have received as Holders of
Certificates.

        Section  9.02.Supplemental  Indentures With Consent of Noteholders.  The
Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee,  when authorized by an Issuer  Request,  also
may,  with  prior  notice to the  Rating  Agencies  and with the  consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority of the  aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes
affected  thereby and the Credit Enhancer,  by Act of such Holders  delivered to
the Issuer and the  Indenture  Trustee,  enter into an indenture  or  indentures
supplemental  hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in
any  manner or  eliminating  any of the  provisions  of,  this  Indenture  or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes


                                              49

<PAGE>



under this Indenture;  provided,  however,  that no such supplemental  indenture
shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby:

                   (i change the date of payment of any installment of principal
        of or interest on any Note,  or reduce the principal  amount  thereof or
        the interest  rate  thereon,  change the  provisions  of this  Indenture
        relating to the  application of  collections  on, or the proceeds of the
        Sale of, the Trust  Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the
        Notes,  or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in
        which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable,  or impair the right
        to  institute  suit  for  the  enforcement  of the  provisions  of  this
        Indenture  requiring the  application of funds  available  therefor,  as
        provided  in  Article V, to the  payment  of any such  amount due on the
        Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof;

                  (ii reduce the  percentage  of the related Note Balance of any
        Class of Notes,  the consent of the Holders of which is required for any
        such supplemental  indenture,  or the consent of the Holders of which is
        required for any waiver of  compliance  with certain  provisions of this
        Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences  provided
        for in this Indenture;

                 (iii  modify  or alter the  provisions  of the  proviso  to the
        definition of the term "Outstanding" or modify or alter the exception in
        the definition of the term "Holder";

                  (iv reduce the percentage of the aggregate Note Balance of the
        Notes  required to direct the Indenture  Trustee to direct the Issuer to
        sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04;

                   (v  modify  any  provision  of this  Section  9.02  except to
        increase  any  percentage  specified  herein or to provide  that certain
        additional provisions of this Indenture or the Basic Documents cannot be
        modified  or  waived  without  the  consent  of the  Holder of each Note
        affected thereby;

                  (vi modify any of the  provisions  of this  Indenture  in such
        manner as to affect  the  calculation  of the  amount of any  payment of
        interest or principal due on any Note on any Payment Date (including the
        calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation); or

                 (vii permit the creation of any lien  ranking  prior to or on a
        parity with the lien of this  Indenture  with respect to any part of the
        Trust Estate or, except as otherwise  permitted or contemplated  herein,
        terminate the lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject
        hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the
        lien of this Indenture;  and provided,  further,  that such action shall
        not,  as  evidenced  by an  Opinion of  Counsel,  cause the Issuer to be
        subject to an entity level tax.

        The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any
Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination
shall be conclusive upon the


                                              50

<PAGE>



Holders  of all Notes,  whether  theretofore  or  thereafter  authenticated  and
delivered  hereunder.  The  Indenture  Trustee  shall not be liable for any such
determination made in good faith.

        It shall not be  necessary  for any Act of  Noteholders  (as  defined in
Section  10.03) under this Section  9.02 to approve the  particular  form of any
proposed  supplemental  indenture,  but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall
approve the substance thereof.

        Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee of
any supplemental  indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee
shall mail to the Holders of the Notes and the Custodian to which such amendment
or  supplemental  indenture  relates a notice setting forth in general terms the
substance of such supplemental  indenture.  Any failure of the Indenture Trustee
to mail such  notice,  or any defect  therein,  shall not,  however,  in any way
impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

        Section  9.03.Execution  of Supplemental  Indentures.  In executing,  or
permitting  the  additional  trusts  created  by,  any  supplemental   indenture
permitted by this Article IX or the  modification  thereby of the trusts created
by this  Indenture,  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall be entitled to receive,  and
subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02,  shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental  indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture.  The Indenture Trustee may, but shall
not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the
Indenture  Trustee's own rights,  duties,  liabilities or immunities  under this
Indenture or otherwise.

        Section 9.04.Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any
supplemental  indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof,  this Indenture shall
be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance  therewith  with
respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of
rights, obligations,  duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of
the Indenture Trustee,  the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter
be determined,  exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such
modifications  and  amendments,  and all the  terms and  conditions  of any such
supplemental  indenture  shall  be and be  deemed  to be part of the  terms  and
conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

        Section  9.05.Conformity  with Trust  Indenture Act. Every  amendment of
this  Indenture  and every  supplemental  indenture  executed  pursuant  to this
Article IX shall conform to the  requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then
in effect so long as this  Indenture  shall  then be  qualified  under the Trust
Indenture Act.

        Section  9.06.Reference  in  Notes  to  Supplemental  Indentures.  Notes
authenticated  and delivered after the execution of any  supplemental  indenture
pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall,
bear a  notation  in form  approved  by the  Indenture  Trustee as to any matter
provided  for in such  supplemental  indenture.  If the Issuer or the  Indenture
Trustee shall so determine,  new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion
of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such supplemental  indenture may
be prepared and executed by the Issuer and  authenticated  and  delivered by the
Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

same  matters if the fair value of the property or  securities  and of all other
property,  other than property as contemplated by clause (v) below or securities
released  from  the  lien  of  this  Indenture  since  the  commencement  of the
then-current  calendar year, as set forth in the certificates required by clause
(iii)  above and this  clause  (iv),  equals 10% or more of the  aggregate  Note
Balance of the Notes,  but such certificate need not be furnished in the case of
any release of property or  securities if the fair value thereof as set forth in
the related Officer's  Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent
of the then aggregate Note Balance of the Notes.

                   (v  Notwithstanding  any  provision  of this  Indenture,  the
Issuer may, without  compliance with the requirements of the other provisions of
this Section 10.01, (A) collect,  sell or otherwise dispose of the Home Loans as
and to the extent  permitted or required by the Basic Documents or (B) make cash
payments out of the Payment  Account as and to the extent  permitted or required
by the Basic  Documents,  so long as the Issuer shall  deliver to the  Indenture
Trustee every six months,  commencing July 31, 2001, an Officer's Certificate of
the Issuer stating that all the dispositions of Collateral  described in clauses
(A) or (B) above that occurred  during the preceding six calendar months were in
the ordinary course of the Issuer's  business and that the proceeds thereof were
applied in accordance with the Basic Documents.

        Section 10.02Form of Documents  Delivered to Indenture  Trustee.  In any
case where  several  matters are required to be  certified  by, or covered by an
opinion of, any specified  Person,  it is not necessary that all such matters be
certified  by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person,  or that they
be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify
or give an  opinion  with  respect  to some  matters  and one or more other such
Persons as to other matters,  and any such Person may certify or give an opinion
as to such matters in one or several documents.

        Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be
based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of,
or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or  representations
with respect to the matters upon which his  certificate  or opinion is based are
erroneous.  Any such certificate of an Authorized  Officer or Opinion of Counsel
may be based,  insofar as it relates to factual  matters,  upon a certificate or
opinion of, or representations by, an


                                              53

<PAGE>



officer or officers of the Seller or the Issuer,  stating  that the  information
with respect to such factual  matters is in the  possession of the Seller or the
Issuer,  unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should
know,  that the certificate or opinion or  representations  with respect to such
matters are erroneous.

        Where any  Person  is  required  to make,  give or  execute  two or more
applications,  requests, consents,  certificates,  statements, opinions or other
instruments  under this Indenture,  they may, but need not, be consolidated  and
form one instrument.

        Whenever  in this  Indenture,  in  connection  with any  application  or
certificate or report to the Indenture  Trustee,  it is provided that the Issuer
shall  deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such  application,
or as evidence of the Issuer's  compliance with any term hereof,  it is intended
that the truth and accuracy,  at the time of the granting of such application or
at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and  opinions  stated in such  document  shall in such case be  conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application  granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however,  be
construed  to affect the  Indenture  Trustee's  right to rely upon the truth and
accuracy of any statement or opinion  contained in any such document as provided
in Article VI.

        Section   10.03Acts   of   Noteholders.   (a)   Any   request,   demand,
authorization,  direction,  notice,  consent, waiver or other action provided by
this  Indenture  to be  given or taken by  Noteholders  may be  embodied  in and
evidenced by one or more  instruments of  substantially  similar tenor signed by
such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as
herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such
instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee,  and, where it
is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred
to as the "Act" of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof
of execution of any such  instrument or of a writing  appointing  any such agent
shall be  sufficient  for any purpose of this  Indenture and (subject to Section
6.01)  conclusive in favor of the Indenture  Trustee and the Issuer,  if made in
the manner provided in this Section 10.03.

        (b) The  fact  and  date of the  execution  by any  person  of any  such
instrument  or writing  may be proved in any manner that the  Indenture  Trustee
deems sufficient.

        (c)  The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Registrar.

        (d) Any request,  demand,  authorization,  direction,  notice,  consent,
waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder of every
Note issued  upon the  registration  thereof or in exchange  therefor or in lieu
thereof,  in respect of  anything  done,  omitted or  suffered to be done by the
Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon,  whether or not notation of
such action is made upon such Note.

and Rating Agencies.  Any request,  demand,  authorization,  direction,  notice,
consent, waiver or Act of

Noteholders or other documents  provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be
in  writing  and if such  request,  demand,  authorization,  direction,  notice,
consent,  waiver or Act of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to
or filed with:

                   (i the Indenture  Trustee by any  Noteholder or by the Issuer
        shall  be  sufficient  for  every  purpose  hereunder  if  made,  given,
        furnished  or filed in writing to or with the  Indenture  Trustee at the
        Corporate Trust Office.  The Indenture  Trustee shall promptly  transmit
        any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuer, or

                  (ii the Issuer by the Indenture  Trustee or by any  Noteholder
        shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed
        first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: Home Loan Trust
        2000-HI3,  in care of Wilmington Trust Company,  or at any other address
        previously  furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer.
        The Issuer shall  promptly  transmit any notice  received by it from the
        Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee, or

                 (iii the Credit Enhancer by the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee
        or by any Noteholders shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder to
        in writing and mailed,  first- class  postage  pre-paid,  or  personally
        delivered or  telecopied  to:  Ambac  Assurance  Corporation,  One State
        Street Plaza, 19th Floor, New York, New York 10004, Attention:  Consumer
        Asset-Backed  Securities Group,  telecopier  number (212) 363-1459.  The
        Credit  Enhancer shall promptly  transmit any notice received by it from
        the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee or the  Noteholders to the Issuer or
        Indenture Trustee, as the case may be.

        Notices  required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer,  the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered
or mailed by certified  mail,  return receipt  requested,  to (i) in the case of
Moody's,  at  the  following  address:  Moody's  Investors  Service,  Inc.,  ABS
Monitoring  Department,  99 Church Street,  New York, New York 10007 and (ii) in
the case of Standard & Poor's,  at the following  address:  Standard & Poor's, A
Division of the McGraw-Hill  Companies,  Inc., 55 Water Street - 41st Floor, New
York, New York 10041, Attention of Asset Backed Surveillance  Department;  or as
to each of the  foregoing,  at such  other  address  as shall be  designated  by
written notice to the other parties.

        Section  10.05Notices  to  Noteholders;  Waiver.  Where  this  Indenture
provides  for  notice  to  Noteholders  of  any  event,  such  notice  shall  be
sufficiently  given (unless  otherwise herein expressly  provided) if in writing
and mailed,  first-class,  postage prepaid to each  Noteholder  affected by such
event,  at such Person's  address as it appears on the Note Register,  not later
than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the
giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail,
neither  the  failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed
to any particular  Noteholder  shall affect the  sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein
provided shall  conclusively  be presumed to have been duly given  regardless of
whether such notice is in fact actually received.

        Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner,  such notice may
be waived in writing by any Person  entitled  to  receive  such  notice,  either
before or after the  event,  and such  waiver  shall be the  equivalent  of such
notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the


                                              55

<PAGE>



Indenture  Trustee but such filing  shall not be a  condition  precedent  to the
validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

        In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result
of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity,  it shall be impractical to mail
notice of any event to  Noteholders  when such  notice is  required  to be given
pursuant  to any  provision  of this  Indenture,  then any manner of giving such
notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a
sufficient giving of such notice.

        Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure
to give such notice  shall not affect any other  rights or  obligations  created
hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute an Event of Default.

        Section  10.06Alternate  Payment and Notice Provisions.  Notwithstanding
any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary,  the Issuer
may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note providing for a method of
payment,  or notice by the Indenture  Trustee to such Holder,  that is different
from the methods  provided for in this  Indenture  for such payments or notices.
The Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture  Trustee a copy of each such agreement
and the  Indenture  Trustee  shall  cause  payments to be made and notices to be
given in accordance with such agreements.

        Section  10.07Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof
limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to
be included in this  Indenture by any of the  provisions of the Trust  Indenture
Act, such required provision shall control.

        The  provisions of TIA ss.ss.  310 through 317 that impose duties on any
Person  (including the provisions  automatically  deemed  included herein unless
expressly  excluded by this  Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,
whether or not physically contained herein.

        Section 10.08Effect of Headings. The Article and Section headings herein
are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

        Section  10.09Successors  and Assigns.  All covenants and  agreements in
this  Indenture  and the  Notes by the  Issuer  shall  bind its  successors  and
assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

        Section 10.10Separability. In case any provision in this Indenture or in
the Notes shall be invalid,  illegal or unenforceable,  the validity,  legality,
and enforceability of the remaining  provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.

        Section 10.11Benefits of Indenture.  Nothing in this Indenture or in the
Notes,  express or  implied,  shall give to any  Person,  other than the parties
hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Noteholders, the Credit Enhancer,
and any other party  secured  hereunder,  and any other Person with an ownership
interest in any part of the Trust Estate,  any benefit or any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.


                                              56

        Section  10.12Legal  Holidays.  In any case  where the date on which any
payment  is due shall not be a Business  Day,  then  (notwithstanding  any other
provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next  succeeding  Business  Day with the same  force  and
effect as if made on the date on which  nominally  due,  and no  interest  shall
accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

        Section  10.13GOVERNING  LAW.  THIS  INDENTURE  SHALL  BE  CONSTRUED  IN
ACCORDANCE  WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW  YORK,  WITHOUT  REFERENCE  TO ITS
CONFLICT OF LAW  PROVISIONS,  AND THE  OBLIGATIONS,  RIGHTS AND  REMEDIES OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

        Section 10.14Counterparts.  This Indenture may be executed in any number
of  counterparts,  each of which so executed  shall be deemed to be an original,
but all  such  counterparts  shall  together  constitute  but  one and the  same
instrument.

        Section  10.15Recording  of Indenture.  If this  Indenture is subject to
recording in any appropriate public recording  offices,  such recording is to be
effected by the Issuer and at its expense  accompanied  by an Opinion of Counsel
(which may be counsel to the Indenture  Trustee or any other counsel  reasonably
acceptable  to the  Indenture  Trustee)  to the effect  that such  recording  is
necessary  either for the  protection  of the  Noteholders  or any other  Person
secured  hereunder or for the  enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the
Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

        Section 10.16Issuer  Obligation.  No recourse may be taken,  directly or
indirectly,  with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or
the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or
other  writing  delivered in connection  herewith or therewith,  against (i) the
Indenture  Trustee or the Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  (ii) any
owner of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer  or (iii) any  partner,  owner,
beneficiary,  agent,  officer,  director,  employee  or agent  of the  Indenture
Trustee  or the  Owner  Trustee  in its  individual  capacity,  any  holder of a
beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or
of any successor or assign of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have  expressly  agreed (it
being  understood that the Indenture  Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such
obligations  in their  individual  capacity)  and except that any such  partner,
owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable
law, for any unpaid  consideration  for stock,  unpaid capital  contribution  or
failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of
this  Indenture,  in the  performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer
hereunder,  the Owner  Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits
of, the terms and provisions of Article VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement.

        Section 10.17No Petition.  The Indenture Trustee,  by entering into this
Indenture,  and each Noteholder,  by accepting a Note, hereby covenant and agree
that they will not at any time institute against the Depositor or the Issuer, or
join in any institution  against the Depositor or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy,
reorganization,  arrangement,  insolvency or liquidation  proceedings,  or other
proceedings  under any United States federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law
in connection with any obligations  relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any
of the Basic Documents.

        Section  10.18Inspection.  The Issuer agrees that,  on reasonable  prior
notice, it shall permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee,  during the
Issuer's normal  business  hours, to examine all the books of account,  records,
reports and other papers of the Issuer,  to make copies and extracts  therefrom,
to cause such books to be audited by Independent  certified public  accountants,
and to discuss the Issuer's  affairs,  finances  and accounts  with the Issuer's
officers,  employees, and Independent certified public accountants,  all at such
reasonable  times and as often as may be  reasonably  requested.  The  Indenture
Trustee shall and shall cause its representatives to hold in confidence all such
information  except to the extent  disclosure  may be  required  by law (and all
reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to
the  extent  that the  Indenture  Trustee  may  reasonably  determine  that such
disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder.

accepting  this  Class  A-I-1  Note,  agrees to be bound by such  determination.
Interest  on this Class A-I-1 Note will  accrue for each  Payment  Date from the

forth on the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though  fully
set forth on the face of this Note.

the name of and on behalf of the  Issuer,  will  notify  the  Person who was the
Registered  Holder hereof as of the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by

instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly

one or more new  Notes in  authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate
principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.  No
service charge will be charged for any  registration  of transfer or exchange of
this Note, but the Note Registrar  shall require  payment of a sum sufficient to

registration of transfer or exchange of this Note.

               Each holder or  Beneficial  Owner of a Note,  by  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Seller,  the Master Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the
Notes or under the Indenture or any  certificate  or other writing  delivered in
connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee

expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.

               Each holder or  Beneficial  Owner of a Note,  by  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not at any time institute  against the
Depositor,  the Seller,  the Master Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group,  Inc. or the
Issuer, or join in any institution against the Depositor, the Seller, the Master
Servicer,   GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc.  or  the  Issuer  of,  any  bankruptcy,
reorganization,  arrangement,  insolvency or liquidation  proceedings  under any
United States federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any
obligations relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

               The Issuer has entered into the Indenture and this Note is issued
with the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single business
and  franchise  tax  purposes,  the Notes will  qualify as  indebtedness  of the
Issuer.  Each holder of a Note,  by  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by  acceptance  of a beneficial  interest in a Note),  agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

               Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this
Note,  the  Issuer,  the  Indenture  Trustee  and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as

provided,  the  amendment  thereof  and  the  modification  of  the  rights  and

holders  of the Notes  under the  Indenture  at any time by the  Issuer  and the
Indenture  Trustee  with the  consent  of the  holders of Notes  representing  a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time  Outstanding and
the Credit Enhancer and with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture

of all the Notes, to waive  compliance by the Issuer with certain  provisions of
the  Indenture  and  certain  past  defaults   under  the  Indenture  and  their
consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one
of more Predecessor  Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and
upon  all  future  holders  of  this  Note  and  of any  Note  issued  upon  the
registration  of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The Indenture
also  permits  the Issuer and the  Indenture  Trustee to amend or waive  certain

of the Notes issued  thereunder but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and
the Credit Enhancer.

circumstances,  to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture
Trustee and the holders of Notes under the Indenture.

               The Notes are issuable only in registered  form in  denominations
as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

               This Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York,  without  reference  to its  conflict  of law
provisions and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder and
thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

               No  reference  herein to the  Indenture  and no provision of this
Note or of the Indenture  shall alter or impair,  the  obligation of the Issuer,
which is absolute  and  unconditional,  to pay the  principal of and interest on
this  Note at the  times,  place and rate,  and in the coin or  currency  herein
prescribed.

               Anything  herein  to  the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except  as
expressly  provided in the Basic Documents,  none of Wilmington Trust Company in
its individual  capacity,  The Chase Manhattan Bank, in its individual capacity,
any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the Issuer,  or any of their  respective
partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or successors or
assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them
for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or performance  of, or
omission to perform, any of the covenants,

Note by its acceptance hereof agrees that,  except as expressly  provided in the
Basic  Documents,  in the case of an Event of Default under the  Indenture,  the
holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss
or claim therefrom;  provided,  however,  that nothing contained herein shall be
taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement  against, the assets of the Issuer
for any and all  liabilities,  obligations  and  undertakings  contained  in the
Indenture or in this Note.
