                                  Organization

Section  2.01.  Name.  The trust  created  hereby  shall be known as "GMACM Home

Section 2.04.  Appointment of Owner Trustee.  The Depositor  hereby appoints the
Owner Trustee as trustee of the Trust  effective as of the date hereof,  to have
all the rights, powers and duties set forth herein.

Section 2.05. Initial Capital  Contribution of Trust Estate. In consideration of
the delivery by the Owner Trustee,  on behalf of the Trust, of the Securities to
the Depositor or its designee,  upon the order of the Depositor,  the Depositor,
as of the Closing Date and concurrently  with the execution and delivery hereof,
does  hereby  transfer,  assign,  set over and  otherwise  convey to the  Trust,
without  recourse,  but subject to the other terms and  provisions of this Trust
Agreement,  all of the right,  title and interest of the Depositor in and to the
Trust Estate. The foregoing transfer,  assignment,  set over and conveyance does
not, and is not intended to,  result in a creation or an assumption by the Trust
of any  obligation of the  Depositor or any other Person in connection  with the
Trust Estate or under any agreement or instrument  relating  thereto,  except as
specifically set forth herein.

        The Owner Trustee,  on behalf of the Trust,  acknowledges the conveyance
to the Trust by the  Depositor,  as of the Closing  Date,  of the Trust  Estate,
including  all right,  title and  interest of the  Depositor in and to the Trust
Estate.  Concurrently with such conveyance and in exchange  therefor,  the Trust
has pledged the Trust  Estate to the  Indenture  Trustee  and has  executed  the
Certificates  and  the  Notes  and  caused  them to be  duly  authenticated  and
delivered.

Section 2.06.  Declaration of Trust.  The Owner Trustee hereby  declares that it
shall hold the Trust  Estate in trust upon and  subject  to the  conditions  set
forth herein for the use and benefit of the  Certificateholders,  subject to the
obligations of the Trust under the Basic  Documents.  It is the intention of the
parties  hereto that the Trust  constitute  a business  trust under the Business
Trust Statute and that this Trust Agreement  constitute the governing instrument
of such business trust. Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall
have all rights,  powers and duties set forth herein and in the  Business  Trust
Statute  with  respect to  accomplishing  the  purposes of the Trust.  It is the
intention of the parties hereto that, solely for federal, state and local income
and franchise tax purposes, the Trust shall be treated as an entity wholly owned
by the  Depositor or an affiliate  thereof,  with the assets of the entity being
the Trust Estate,  and the Notes being debt of the entity and the  provisions of
this Trust  Agreement  shall be interpreted to further this  intention.  If more
than one person owns the  Certificates,  then it is the intention of the parties
hereto,  that  solely for  federal,  state and local  income and  franchise  tax
purposes  the Trust  shall be treated as a  partnership,  with the assets of the
partnership  being the Trust Estate,  the partners of the partnership  being the
Certificateholders  and  the  Notes  being  debt  of  the  partnership  and  the
provisions  of this  Trust  Agreement  shall  be  interpreted  to  further  this
intention.  Neither  the  Depositor  nor any  Certificateholder  shall  have any
personal  liability for any liability or obligation of the Trust, other than the
indemnification obligations as provided in Section 7.2 herein.

Section 2.07. Title to Trust Property.  Legal title to the Trust Estate shall be
vested  at all  times in the  Trust as a  separate  legal  entity  except  where
applicable  law in any  jurisdiction  requires  title to any  part of the  Trust
Estate to be vested in a trustee  or  trustees,  in which  case  title  shall be
deemed to be  vested  in the  Owner  Trustee,  a  co-trustee  and/or a  separate
trustee, as the case may be.

                                        4

Section 2.08.  Situs of Trust. The Trust will be located and administered in the
State of Delaware.  All bank accounts  maintained by the Owner Trustee on behalf
of the Trust shall be located in the State of Delaware or the State of New York.
The  Trust  shall  not have any  employees  in any state  other  than  Delaware;
provided,  however,  that nothing  herein  shall  restrict or prohibit the Owner
Trustee from having  employees within or without the State of Delaware or taking
actions  outside the State of Delaware  in order to comply  with  Section  2.03.
Payments  will be  received  by the Trust only in  Delaware  or  Minnesota,  and
payments  will be made by the Trust only from  Delaware or  Minnesota.  The only
office of the Trust will be at the  Corporate  Trust Office of the Owner Trustee
in Delaware.

Section 2.09.  Representations  and Warranties of the  Depositor.  The Depositor
hereby represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee and the Enhancer that:

(a) The  Depositor is duly  organized and validly  existing as a corporation  in
good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware,  with power and authority
to own its  properties  and to  conduct  its  business  as such  properties  are
currently owned and such business is at present conducted.

(b) The Depositor is duly  qualified to do business as a foreign  corporation in
good  standing  and has  obtained all  necessary  licenses and  approvals in all
jurisdictions  in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of
its business  shall require such  qualifications  and in which the failure to so
qualify would have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets
or condition  (financial  or  otherwise) of the Depositor and the ability of the
Depositor to perform under this Trust Agreement.

(c) The  Depositor has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Trust
Agreement and to carry out its terms; the Depositor has full power and authority
to sell and assign the  property to be sold and assigned to and  deposited  with
the Trust as part of the Trust and the Depositor has duly  authorized  such sale
and assignment and deposit to the Trust by all necessary  corporate action;  and
the execution,  delivery and  performance of this Trust Agreement have been duly
authorized by the Depositor by all necessary corporate action.

(d) The  consummation of the  transactions  contemplated by this Trust Agreement
and the  fulfillment  of the terms  hereof do not conflict  with,  result in any
material  breach of any of the terms and provisions  of, or constitute  (with or
without  notice or lapse of time) a material  default  under,  the  articles  of
incorporation or bylaws of the Depositor,  or any material indenture,  agreement
or other  instrument  to which the Depositor is a party or by which it is bound;
nor result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its  properties
pursuant  to the  terms of any such  indenture,  agreement  or other  instrument
(other  than  pursuant to the Basic  Documents);  nor violate any law or, to the
best of the Depositor's  knowledge,  any order, rule or regulation applicable to
the  Depositor  of any  court  or of  any  federal  or  state  regulatory  body,
administrative agency or other governmental  instrumentality having jurisdiction
over the Depositor or its properties.

Section  2.10.  Payment of Trust Fees.  The Owner  Trustee shall pay the Trust's
fees and expenses incurred with respect to the performance of the Trust's duties
under the Indenture.

                                  ARTICLE III


                 Conveyance of the Mortgage Loans; Certificates

Section 3.01. Conveyance of the Mortgage Loans. The Depositor, concurrently with
the execution and delivery hereof,  does hereby  transfer,  convey and assign to
the Trust, on behalf of the Securityholders and the Enhancer,  without recourse,
all  its  right,  title  and  interest  in and to the  Initial  Mortgage  Loans,
including  but not  limited to any rights of the  Depositor  under the  Purchase
Agreement.  The  Depositor  shall also  provide the  Indenture  Trustee with the
Policy.

        The parties hereto intend that, for non-tax  purposes,  the  transaction
set forth  herein be a sale by the  Depositor  to the Trust of all of its right,
title and interest in and to the Initial  Mortgage Loans. In the event that, for
non-tax  purposes,  the transaction set forth herein is not deemed to be a sale,
the  Depositor  hereby  grants to the Trust a  security  interest  in all of its
right,  title and  interest  in, to and under the Initial  Mortgage  Loans,  all
distributions  thereon and all proceeds thereof;  and this Trust Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

Section  3.02.  Initial  Ownership.  Upon  the  formation  of the  Trust  by the
contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.05 and the conveyance of the
Initial  Mortgage  Loans  pursuant  to  Section  3.01  and the  issuance  of the
Certificates, the Seller shall be the sole Certificateholder.

Section 3.03.  Issuance of  Certificates.  The  Certificates  shall be issued in
minimum  denominations  of  a  Percentage  Interest  of  10.0000%  and  integral
multiples of 0.0001% in excess thereof; provided, however, that Certificates may
be issued in minimum  denominations of less than 10.0000% in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.12.

        The  Certificates  shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or
facsimile   signature  of  an  authorized  officer  of  the  Owner  Trustee  and
authenticated in the manner provided in Section 3.04.  Certificates  bearing the
manual or facsimile  signatures of  individuals  who were, at the time when such
signatures  shall have been affixed,  authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust,
shall be validly  issued and  entitled to the  benefit of this Trust  Agreement,
notwithstanding  that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the  authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did
not  hold  such  offices  at the date of  authentication  and  delivery  of such
Certificates. A Person shall become a Certificateholder and shall be entitled to
the rights and subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder  hereunder upon
such Person's acceptance of a Certificate duly registered in such Person's name,
pursuant to Section 3.05.

        A transferee of a Certificate shall become a Certificateholder and shall
be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a  Certificateholder
hereunder upon such transferee's  acceptance of a Certificate duly registered in
such  transferee's  name pursuant to and upon satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 3.05.

Section 3.04. Authentication of Certificates.  Concurrently with the acquisition
of the Initial Mortgage Loans by the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate
Paying Agent shall cause the Certificates in an initial  Percentage  Interest of
100.00% to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or

                                        6

upon the written order of the Seller,  signed by its chairman of the board,  its
president or any vice president, without further corporate action by the Seller,
in authorized denominations.  No Certificate shall entitle the Certificateholder
thereof to any benefit  under this Trust  Agreement  or be valid for any purpose
unless there shall appear on such  Certificate a certificate  of  authentication
substantially  in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto,  executed by the Owner
Trustee  or  the  Certificate  Paying  Agent,  by  manual  signature,  and  such
authentication  shall constitute  conclusive  evidence that such Certificate has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated
the date of their authentication.

Section  3.05.  Registration  of and  Limitations  on Transfer  and  Exchange of
Certificates.  The Certificate  Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09, a Certificate  Register 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 of  Certificates  as herein  provided.  The  Indenture
Trustee shall be the initial Certificate Registrar. If the Certificate Registrar
resigns or is removed,  the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor  Certificate
Registrar.

        Subject  to  satisfaction  of  the  conditions  set  forth  below,  upon
surrender  for  registration  of  transfer of any  Certificate  at the office or
agency  maintained  pursuant to Section 3.09,  the Owner Trustee shall  execute,
authenticate  and  deliver  (or shall  cause the  Certificate  Registrar  as its
authenticating agent to authenticate and deliver), in the name of the designated
transferee  or  transferees,   one  or  more  new   Certificates  in  authorized
denominations of a like aggregate amount dated the date of authentication by the
Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent. At the option of a Certificateholder,
Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations
of a like aggregate amount upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at
the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09.

        Every Certificate  presented or surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange  shall be  accompanied  by a written  instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder
or  such   Certificateholder's   attorney  duly  authorized  in  writing.   Each
Certificate  surrendered  for  registration  of transfer  or  exchange  shall be
cancelled  and  subsequently   disposed  of  by  the  Certificate  Registrar  in
accordance with its customary practice.

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

        Except as described below,  each  Certificateholder  shall establish its
non-foreign status by submitting to the Certificate Paying Agent an IRS Form W-9
and the Certificate of Non-Foreign  Status (in  substantially  the form attached
hereto as Exhibit F).

        A  Certificate  may be  transferred  to a  Certificateholder  unable  to
establish its non-foreign status as described in the preceding paragraph only if
such  Certificateholder  provides  an Opinion of Counsel to the  Depositor,  the
Certificate Registrar and the Enhancer, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an
expense  of the Trust,  the Owner  Trustee,  the  Certificate  Registrar  or the

                                        7

<PAGE>


Depositor,  satisfactory  to the Depositor and the Enhancer,  that such transfer
(1) will not affect the tax status of the Owner Trust and (2) will not adversely
affect the interests of any Securityholder or the Enhancer,  including,  without
limitation,  as a  result  of  the  imposition  of  any  United  States  federal
withholding taxes on the Trust (except to the extent that such withholding taxes
would be payable solely from amounts otherwise  distributable to the Certificate
of the  prospective  transferee).  If such  transfer  occurs  and  such  foreign
Certificateholder  becomes  subject to such United  States  federal  withholding
taxes, any such taxes will be withheld by the Indenture Trustee at the direction
of the Tax Matters  Partner.  Each  Certificateholder  unable to  establish  its
non-foreign  status shall submit to the  Certificate  Paying Agent a copy of its
Form W-8 and shall resubmit such Form W-8 every three years.

        No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Certificate shall be
made unless such transfer,  sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the
registration  requirements  of the  Securities  Act  and  any  applicable  state
securities  laws or is made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state
laws.  In the  event of any such  transfer,  the  Certificate  Registrar  or the
Depositor  shall prior to such  transfer  require the  transferee to execute (A)
either (i) (a) an investment letter in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit  C (or  in  such  form  and  substance  reasonably  satisfactory  to the
Certificate  Registrar and the Depositor) which investment  letters shall not be
an expense of the Trust,  the Owner  Trustee,  the  Certificate  Registrar,  the
Servicer or the Depositor and which  investment  letter states that, among other
things,  such  transferee  (a) is a "qualified  institutional  buyer" as defined
under Rule 144A,  acting for its own account or the accounts of other "qualified
institutional  buyers"  as defined  under  Rule 144A,  and (b) is aware that the
proposed   transferor  intends  to  rely  on  the  exemption  from  registration
requirements  under  the  Securities  Act,  provided  by Rule 144A or (ii) (a) a
written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance  satisfactory
to the  Certificate  Registrar and the Depositor  that such transfer may be made
pursuant to an  exemption,  describing  the  applicable  exemption and the basis
therefor,  from the Securities Act and such state laws or is being made pursuant
to the Securities Act and such state laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be
an expense of the Trust,  the Owner  Trustee,  the  Certificate  Registrar,  the
Servicer  or the  Depositor  and (b) the  transferee  executes a  representation
letter,  substantially  in the form of  Exhibit  D  hereto,  and the  transferor
executes a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto,
each  acceptable to and in form and substance  satisfactory  to the  Certificate
Registrar and the Depositor  certifying  the facts  surrounding  such  transfer,
which  representation  letters  shall not be an expense of the Trust,  the Owner
Trustee,  the Certificate  Registrar,  the Servicer or the Depositor and (B) the
Certificate of Non-Foreign  Status (in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit F) acceptable to and in form and substance  reasonably  satisfactory  to
the Certificate  Registrar and the Depositor,  which certificate shall not be an
expense  of the Trust,  the Owner  Trustee,  the  Certificate  Registrar  or the
Depositor.  If such  Certificateholder  is unable to  provide a  Certificate  of
Non-Foreign Status, such Certificateholder must provide an Opinion of Counsel as
described in the preceding paragraph.  The Certificateholder  desiring to effect
such transfer shall,  and does hereby agree to,  indemnify the Trust,  the Owner
Trustee,  the  Certificate  Registrar,  the  Servicer  , the  Enhancer  and  the
Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt
or is not made in  accordance  with such federal and state  laws.No  transfer of
Certificates or any interest  therein shall be made to any employee benefit plan
or  certain  other  retirement  plans  and  arrangements,  including  individual
retirement  accounts and annuities,  Keogh plans and bank collective  investment
funds and insurance  company  general or separate  accounts in which such plans,
accounts or arrangements are invested, that are subject to ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code (collectively, a "Plan"), any Person acting, directly or indirectly,
on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such  Certificates with "plan
assets" of a Plan  within the  meaning of the  Department  of Labor  Regulations
Section 2510.3-101 ("Plan Assets") unless the Depositor,  the Owner Trustee, the
Certificate  Registrar  and the Servicer are provided with an Opinion of Counsel
that  establishes to the satisfaction of the Depositor,  the Owner Trustee,  the
Certificate  Registrar  and the Servicer  that the purchase of  Certificates  is

                                        8

<PAGE>

permissible  under  applicable  law,  will  not  constitute  or  result  in  any
prohibited  transaction  under  ERISA or  Section  4975 of the Code and will not
subject the  Depositor,  the Owner  Trustee,  the  Certificate  Registrar or the
Servicer to any  obligation or liability  (including  obligations or liabilities
under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this
Trust  Agreement,  which  Opinion  of  Counsel  shall not be an  expense  of the
Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Servicer. In lieu
of such Opinion of Counsel,  a Plan, any Person acting,  directly or indirectly,
on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such  Certificates  with Plan
Assets of a Plan may  provide a  certification  in the form of Exhibit G to this
Trust  Agreement,  which the  Depositor,  the  Owner  Trustee,  the  Certificate
Registrar   and  the  Servicer  may  rely  upon  without   further   inquiry  or
investigation.  Neither  an  Opinion  of  Counsel  nor a  certification  will be
required in connection with the initial  transfer of any such Certificate by the
Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case,  the Depositor or any
such Affiliate shall be deemed to have  represented that such Affiliate is not a
Plan or a Person  investing Plan Assets of any Plan) and the Owner Trustee shall
be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation  (which, upon the request
of the Owner Trustee,  shall be a written  representation) from the Depositor of
the status of such transferee as an Affiliate of the Depositor.

        In addition,  no transfer of a Certificate  shall be  permitted,  and no
such transfer shall be registered by the  Certificate  Registrar or be effective
hereunder,   unless  evidenced  by  an  Opinion  of  Counsel  addressed  to  the
Certificate  Registrar and the Enhancer that  establishes  that such transfer or
the  registration of such transfer would not cause the Trust to be classified as
a publicly traded partnership, by having more than 100 Certificateholders at any
time  during  the  taxable  year  of the  Trust,  an  association  taxable  as a
corporation,  a corporation or a taxable  mortgage pool for federal and relevant
state income tax purposes.

        In addition, no transfer, sale, assignment,  pledge or other disposition
of a  Certificate  shall be made  unless  the  proposed  transferee  executes  a
representation  letter  substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto,  that (1)
the  transferee  is  acquiring  such  Certificate  for its own behalf and is not
acting as agent or custodian for any other Person or entity in  connection  with
such acquisition and (2) if the transferee is a partnership,  grantor trust or S
corporation for federal income tax purposes,  the Certificates  acquired are not
more than 50% of the assets of the partnership, grantor trust or S corporation.

Section 3.06.  Mutilated,  Destroyed,  Lost or Stolen  Certificates.  If (a) any
mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate  Registrar,  or if
the  Certificate  Registrar  shall receive  evidence to its  satisfaction of the
destruction,  loss or theft of any  Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered
to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as
may be required  by them to save each of them and the Issuer from harm,  then in

                                        9

<PAGE>


the absence of notice to the  Certificate  Registrar  or the Owner  Trustee that
such  Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,  the Owner Trustee
on behalf of the Trust shall  execute and the Owner  Trustee or the  Certificate
Paying  Agent,  as the Trust's  authenticating  agent,  shall  authenticate  and
deliver,  in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,  destroyed,  lost or
stolen  Certificate,  a new  Certificate  of like  tenor  and  denomination.  In
connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 3.06, the
Owner  Trustee or the  Certificate  Registrar  may  require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental  charge that may be imposed in
connection therewith.  Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section
3.06 shall  constitute  conclusive  evidence of  ownership  in the Trust,  as if
originally  issued,  whether or not the lost,  stolen or  destroyed  Certificate
shall be found at any time.

Section 3.07. Persons Deemed Certificateholders.  Prior to due presentation of a
Certificate  for  registration of transfer,  the Owner Trustee,  the Certificate
Registrar or any Certificate Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name any
Certificate  is  registered  in the  Certificate  Register  as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving  distributions pursuant to Section 5.02
and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trust, the Owner Trustee,
the  Certificate  Registrar  or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to
the contrary.

Section 3.08.  Access to List of  Certificateholders'  Names and Addresses.  The
Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Depositor or
the Owner Trustee,  within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of
a written request  therefor from the Depositor or the Owner Trustee,  a list, in
such  form as the  Depositor  or the  Owner  Trustee,  as the case  may be,  may
reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the  Certificateholders  as of
the most recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders, or one or more
Certificateholders  evidencing not less than 25% of the  Certificate  Percentage
Interest,  apply in writing to the Owner Trustee or the  Certificate  Registrar,
and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders,  with respect to their rights under this  Agreement or under
the  Certificates  and  such  application  is  accompanied  by  a  copy  of  the
communication that such applicants  propose to transmit,  then the Owner Trustee
shall,  within five (5)  Business  Days after the  receipt of such  application,
afford such  applicants  access during normal business hours to the current list
of  Certificateholders.  Each  Certificateholder,  by  receiving  and  holding a
Certificate,  shall be deemed to have  agreed not to hold any of the Trust,  the
Depositor,  the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason
of the  disclosure of its name and address,  regardless of the source from which
such information was derived.

Section 3.09.  Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Owner Trustee,  on behalf of
the Trust, shall maintain in The City of New York an office or offices or agency
or agencies where  Certificates  may be surrendered for registration of transfer
or  exchange  and where  notices  and  demands  to or upon the Owner  Trustee in
respect of the  Certificates  and the Basic  Documents may be served.  The Owner
Trustee initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee
(or such other office as the Indenture Trustee may specify to the Owner Trustee)
as its office for such  purposes.  The Owner Trustee  shall give prompt  written
notice to the Depositor,  the  Certificateholders and the Enhancer of any change
in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

Section 3.10.  Certificate Paying Agent.

(a) The Certificate Paying Agent shall make distributions to  Certificateholders
from the  Distribution  Account  on behalf of the Trust in  accordance  with the
provisions of the Certificates and Section 5.01 hereof from payments remitted to
the Certificate  Paying Agent by the Indenture  Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05
of the Indenture. The Trust hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as Certificate
Paying Agent. The Certificate Paying Agent shall:

(i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with  respect to the
Certificates in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such
sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(ii) give the Owner  Trustee  notice of any default by the Trust of which it has
actual  knowledge in the making of any payment  required to be made with respect
to the Certificates;

(iii) at any time during the  continuance of any such default,  upon the written
request of the Owner  Trustee,  forthwith  pay to the Owner Trustee on behalf of
the Trust all sums so held in Trust by such Certificate Paying Agent;

(iv)  immediately  resign as  Certificate  Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the
Owner  Trustee  on  behalf  of the  Trust  all sums  held by it in trust for the
payment of Certificates if at any time it ceases to meet the standards  required
to be met by the Certificate 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  Certificates of any applicable  withholding
taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting  requirements
in connection therewith; and

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

(b) The Trust may revoke such power and remove the  Certificate  Paying Agent if
the Owner Trustee  determines in its sole discretion that the Certificate Paying
Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Trust Agreement in
any material  respect.  The  Indenture  Trustee  shall be permitted to resign as
Certificate  Paying Agent upon 30 days' written  notice to the Owner Trustee and
the Enhancer;  provided the Indenture  Trustee is also resigning as Paying Agent
under the Indenture at such time. In the event that the Indenture  Trustee shall
no longer be the Certificate  Paying Agent under this Trust Agreement and Paying
Agent under the Indenture, the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor to act as
Certificate  Paying  Agent  (which  shall be a bank or trust  company) and which
shall also be the successor Paying Agent under the Indenture.  The Owner Trustee
shall  cause  such  successor   Certificate   Paying  Agent  or  any  additional
Certificate  Paying Agent  appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver
to the Owner  Trustee an instrument to the effect set forth in this Section 3.10
as it relates to the  Certificate  Paying Agent.  The  Certificate  Paying Agent
shall return all unclaimed  funds to the Trust and upon removal of a Certificate
Paying  Agent such  Certificate  Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its
possession to the Trust.  The provisions of Sections 6.01,  6.03,  6.04 and 7.01
shall  apply to the  Certificate  Paying  Agent to the  extent  applicable.  Any
reference in this Trust Agreement to the Certificate  Paying Agent shall include
any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.


                                        11

(c) The  Certificate  Paying Agent shall  establish and maintain with itself the
Distribution Account in which the Certificate Paying Agent shall deposit, on the
same day as it is received from the Indenture Trustee,  each remittance received
by the  Certificate  Paying Agent with respect to payments  made pursuant to the
Indenture.  Pending any such  distribution,  funds deposited in the Distribution
Account on a Payment Date and not distributed to the  Certificateholders on such
Payment  Date shall be invested by the  Certificate  Paying  Agent in  Permitted
Investments selected by the Servicer (or if no selection is made by the Servicer
in  Permitted  Investments  described in clause (v) of the  definition  thereof)
maturing no later than the Business Day  preceding the next  succeeding  Payment
Date (except that any investment in the institution  with which the Distribution
Account is  maintained  may mature on such Payment Date and shall not be sold or
disposed of prior to the maturity).  All investment  income earned in respect of
funds  on  deposit  in  the  Distribution  Account  shall  be  credited  to  the
Distribution  Account. The Certificate Paying Agent shall make all distributions
on the  Certificates  as provided in Section 3.05 of the  Indenture  and Section
5.01(a)  of this Trust  Agreement  from  moneys on  deposit in the  Distribution
Account.

Section 3.11.  Cooperation.  The Owner  Trustee shall  cooperate in all respects
with any  reasonable  request by the  Enhancer for action to preserve or enforce
the Enhancer's  rights or interest  under this Trust  Agreement or the Insurance
Agreement,  consistent with this Trust Agreement and without limiting the rights
of the  Certificateholders  as  otherwise  expressly  set  forth  in this  Trust
Agreement.

     Section  3.12.  Additional  Certificate  Balances  Upon  Issuance  of Cappe
Funding Notes.

(a) On any date on which Variable Funding Notes are exchanged for Capped Funding
Notes pursuant to Section 4.01(d) of the Indenture,  the Certificate  Balance of
one or more  Certificates  may be increased in an amount equal to the Additional
Certificate  Balance if required  pursuant to the Opinion of Counsel required to
be delivered pursuant to Section 4.01(d) of the Indenture in connection with the
issuance of the Capped Funding Notes.

(b) 100.00% of the value of the Additional Certificate Balance shall be added to
any Certificate  held by the Seller or an Affiliate  thereof without the consent
of  the  other  Certificateholders;  or if no  such  Certificate  exists,  a new
Certificate or Certificates shall be issued at the direction of the Seller or an
Affiliate  thereof  having in the aggregate a Certificate  Balance equal to such
100.00% of such value. Alternatively,  the Depositor may allocate any portion of
such value to a  Certificateholder  other  than the  Depositor  or an  Affiliate
thereof,  provided that such  Certificateholder  provides its written consent to
the Depositor and the Owner Trustee.

(c) Following such increase,  the Percentage  Interest of each Certificate shall
be recalculated, the numerator of which shall be the value thereof including the
respective  value of the portion of the  Additional  Certificate  Balance  added
thereto pursuant to this Section 3.12, and the denominator of which shall be the
value of all the Certificates  following such increase.  The Owner Trustee shall

                                        12

<PAGE>


issue new Certificates with new Percentage  Interests to each  Certificateholder
of the Certificates,  with such Percentage  Interests calculated to four decimal
places. In addition, the new Certificates may be issued in minimum denominations
of 0.0001% and integral multiples of 0.0001% in excess thereof.

(d) For  purposes  of the  foregoing,  the  "value"  of any  Certificate  or any
Additional  Certificate  Balance added thereto shall be determined by the Seller
in its sole discretion  based on reasonable cash flow  assumptions and valuation
methods, and any such determination shall be binding on the  Certificateholders.
If the  Seller is unable to  determine  the  "value,"  the Owner  Trustee  shall
determine the "value" using the same assumptions and methods.

(e) The Owner Trustee,  the Indenture  Trustee and the Issuer agree to cooperate
with  each  other  and  with  the  Depositor  and the  Seller  and to  cause  no
unreasonable  delay in adjusting the  Percentage  Interests of the  Certificates
pursuant  to this  Section  3.12 and the  issuing  of  Capped  Funding  Notes in
connection with Section 4.01(d) of the Indenture.

Section  3.13.  Subordination.   Except  as  otherwise  provided  in  the  Basic
Documents,   for  so  long  as  any  Notes  are   outstanding  or  unpaid,   the
Certificateholders will generally be subordinated in right of payment, under the
Certificates or otherwise,  to payments to the  Noteholders  under, or otherwise
related to, the Indenture. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
under the Indenture,  the Certificates will be fully subordinated to obligations
owing by the Trust to the  Noteholders  under,  or  otherwise  related  to,  the
Indenture,  and no  distributions  will be made on the  Certificates  until  the
Noteholders and the Indenture Trustee have been irrevocably paid in full.

Section 3.14. No Priority Among Certificates.  All Certificateholders shall rank
equally as to amounts distributable upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of  the  Trust,  with  no  preference  or  priority  being  afforded  to  any
Certificateholders over any other Certificateholders.

                                   ARTICLE IV



                      Authority and Duties of Owner Trustee

Section 4.01. General Authority. The Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to
execute and deliver the Basic  Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and
each certificate or other document  attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by
the  Basic  Documents  to  which  the  Trust  is to be a  party,  as well as any
certificate that supports the factual assumptions made in any Opinion of Counsel
delivered  on the  Closing  Date,  and  any  amendment  or  other  agreement  or
instrument  described  herein,  in each case,  in such form as the Owner Trustee
shall  approve,  as  evidenced  conclusively  by the Owner  Trustee's  execution
thereof.  In addition to the  foregoing,  the Owner Trustee is obligated to take
all actions required of the Trust pursuant to the Basic Documents.

Section  4.02.  General  Duties.  The  Owner  Trustee  shall be  responsible  to
administer the Trust pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement and the other
Basic  Documents  to which  the  Trust  is a party  and in the  interest  of the
Certificateholders,  subject to the Basic  Documents and in accordance  with the
provisions of this Trust Agreement.

Section 4.03.  Action upon Instruction.

(a) Subject to this Article IV and Section 10.13 of this Trust  Agreement and in
accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents,  the Certificateholders may by
written  instruction  direct the Owner  Trustee in the  management of the Trust.
Such  direction  may be  exercised  at any time by  written  instruction  of the
Certificateholders pursuant to this Article IV.

(b)  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the Owner Trustee shall not be required to
take any action hereunder or under any Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall
have  reasonably  determined,  or shall have been advised by counsel,  that such
action is likely to result in liability  on the part of the Owner  Trustee or is
contrary  to the terms  hereof or of any other Basic  Document  or is  otherwise
contrary to law.

(c) Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between  alternative  courses
of action  permitted  or required by the terms of this Trust  Agreement or under
any other Basic Document, or in the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to
the  application  of any  provision  of this Trust  Agreement or any other Basic
Document or any such  provision is ambiguous  as to its  application,  or is, or
appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision,  or in the event
that this Trust Agreement  permits any  determination by the Owner Trustee or is
silent or is  incomplete  as to the course of action  that the Owner  Trustee is
required to take with respect to a particular  set of facts,  the Owner  Trustee
shall  promptly  give  notice  (in such form as shall be  appropriate  under the
circumstances)  to  the  Certificateholders   (with  a  copy  to  the  Enhancer)
requesting  instruction  as to the  course of action to be  adopted,  and to the
extent the Owner  Trustee  acts in good  faith in  accordance  with any  written
instructions  received from  Certificateholders  of Certificates  representing a
majority of the aggregate  Certificate  Percentage  Interest,  the Owner Trustee
shall not be liable  on  account  of such  action  to any  Person.  If the Owner
Trustee shall not have received  appropriate  instruction within 10 days of such
notice (or within such shorter  period of time as reasonably may be specified in

                                        14

<PAGE>

such notice or may be necessary  under the  circumstances)  it may, but shall be
under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent  with
this Trust Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the
best  interests of the  Certificateholders,  and the Owner Trustee shall have no
liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

Section  4.04.  No Duties Except as Specified  under  Specified  Documents or in
Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage,
make any  payment  with  respect  to,  register,  record,  sell,  dispose of, or
otherwise  deal with the Trust  Estate,  or to  otherwise  take or refrain  from
taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby
to which the Owner  Trustee  is a party,  except as  expressly  provided  (i) in
accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner
Trustee  pursuant to this Trust  Agreement,  (ii) in  accordance  with the Basic
Documents and (iii) in accordance with any document or instruction  delivered to
the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 4.03; and no implied duties or obligations
shall be read into this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document  against the
Owner  Trustee.  The Owner Trustee shall have no  responsibility  for filing any
financing  or  continuation  statement  in any  public  office at any time or to
otherwise  perfect or maintain the  perfection of any security  interest or lien
granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any filing with the Commission for
the Trust or to record this Trust  Agreement  or any other Basic  Document.  The
Owner  Trustee  nevertheless  agrees that it will,  at its own cost and expense,
promptly  take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part
of the Trust  Estate that result from actions by, or claims  against,  the Owner
Trustee that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Trust
Estate.

any Certificateholder and (ii) such conveyance or transfer shall not violate the
provisions of Section 3.16(b) of the Indenture.

Certificates  representing  a majority of the aggregate  Certificate  Percentage
Interest  shall not have notified the Owner Trustee in writing prior to the 30th
day after  such  notice  is given  that such  Certificateholders  have  withheld
consent or provided alternative direction:

                                        15

Indenture or this Trust Agreement, as applicable.

Section 4.07. Action by Certificateholders  with Respect to Certain Matters. The
Owner  Trustee  shall not have the power,  except upon the written  direction of
Certificateholders  of  Certificates  evidencing not less than a majority of the
aggregate  Certificate  Balance,  and with the consent of the  Enhancer,  to (a)
remove the  Servicer  under the  Servicing  Agreement  pursuant to Section  7.01

the Owner Trustee by each such  Certificateholder  of a  certificate  certifying
that such Certificateholder reasonably believes that the Trust is insolvent.

Section 4.09. Restrictions on Certificateholders'  Power. The Certificateholders
shall not direct the Owner  Trustee to take or to refrain from taking any action

or would be contrary to Section  2.03,  nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated
to follow any such direction, if given.

Section 4.11. Doing Business in Other  Jurisdictions.  Notwithstanding  anything
contained herein to the contrary, neither Wilmington Trust Company nor the Owner
Trustee shall be required to take any action in any  jurisdiction  other than in
the  State of  Delaware  if the  taking  of such  action  will,  even  after the
appointment of a co-trustee or separate  trustee in accordance with Section 9.05
hereof,  (i) require the consent or approval or authorization or order of or the
giving of notice to, or the registration  with or the taking of any other action
in  respect  of,  any  state or other  governmental  authority  or agency of any
jurisdiction  other than the State of  Delaware;  (ii) result in any fee, tax or
other  governmental  charge  under  the laws of the State of  Delaware  becoming
payable by Wilmington Trust Company,  or (iii) subject  Wilmington Trust Company
to personal  jurisdiction in any  jurisdiction  other than the State of Delaware
for causes of action  arising  from acts  unrelated to the  consummation  of the
transactions by Wilmington  Trust Company or the Owner Trustee,  as the case may
be, contemplated hereby.

Section  4.12.  Removal of Home Loans.  Certificateholders  holding  100% of the
Certificate  Percentage  Interests  of the  Certificates  may, by  delivering  a
written  request  to the Owner  Trustee  to such  effect,  cause the  removal of
Mortgage  Loans  from the Trust  Estate in  accordance  with the  provisions  of

such request, the Owner Trustee shall deliver to the Servicer the written notice
and request required to be delivered to the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.15(c)
of the  Servicing  Agreement.  Any Mortgage  Loans removed from the Trust Estate
pursuant to Section 3.15(c) of the Servicing  Agreement shall be property of the
Issuer and, upon the written request of the  Certificateholders  holding 100% of
the Certificate  Percentage  Interests of the  Certificates,  be released to the
Certificateholders as a dividend and in accordance with the written instructions
of such Certificateholders.

                           Application of Trust Funds

Section 5.01.  Distributions.

(a) On each Payment Date occurring in the months of March,  June,  September and
December, on any date on which the Trust is terminated pursuant to Section 8.01,
and on each  other  Payment  Date for which  the  Certificate  Paying  Agent has
received written notice from the  Certificateholders  by the Determination  Date
relating to such Payment Date  requesting  funds on deposit in the  Distribution
Account to be distributed,  the Certificate Paying Agent shall distribute to the
Certificateholders  all  funds  on  deposit  in  the  Distribution  Account  and
available   therefor  as  provided  in  Section  3.05  of  the  Indenture.   All
distributions  made  pursuant  to  this  Section  shall  be  distributed  to the
Certificateholders pro rata based on the Percentage Interests thereof.

(b) In the event that any  withholding tax is imposed on the  distributions  (or
allocations of income) to a Certificateholder,  such tax shall reduce the amount
otherwise  distributable  to such  Certificateholder  in  accordance  with  this
Section 5.01. The Certificate  Paying Agent is hereby authorized and directed to
retain or cause to be  retained  from  amounts  otherwise  distributable  to the
Certificateholders  sufficient  funds for the payment of any tax that is legally
owed by the Trust (but such  authorization  shall not prevent the Owner  Trustee
from contesting any such tax in appropriate Proceedings, and withholding payment
of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such Proceedings).  The
amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Certificateholder  shall
be  treated  as cash  distributed  to such  Certificateholder  at the time it is
withheld by the Certificate  Paying Agent and remitted to the appropriate taxing
authority.  If there is a  possibility  that  withholding  tax is  payable  with
respect   to  a   distribution   (such   as  a   distribution   to  a   non-U.S.
Certificateholder),  the  Certificate  Paying  Agent may in its sole  discretion
withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (b).

(c) Distributions to  Certificateholders  shall be subordinated to the creditors
of the Trust, including the Noteholders.

(d)  Allocations  of profits and losses,  as determined  for federal  income tax
purposes,  shall be made to the  Certificateholders on a pro rata basis based on
the Certificate Percentage Interests thereof.

Section  5.02.  Method of  Payment.  Subject to Section  8.01(c),  distributions
required to be made to  Certificateholders  on any  Payment  Date as provided in
Section 5.01 shall be made to each  Certificateholder of record on the preceding
Record Date by wire transfer,  in immediately available funds, to the account of
each  Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate  facilities
therefor,  if such  Certificateholder  shall have  provided  to the  Certificate
Registrar  appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior to
such  Payment  Date  or,  if  not,  by  check  or  money  order  mailed  to such
Certificateholder  at the  address of such  Certificateholder  appearing  in the
Certificate Register.

Section 5.03.  Signature on Returns.  The Servicer,  as the Tax Matters Partner,
shall sign on behalf of the Trust the tax returns of the Trust.

Section  5.04.  Statements  to  Certificateholders.  On each Payment  Date,  the
Certificate  Paying  Agent shall make  available to each  Certificateholder  the
statement or statements provided to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying
Agent by the Servicer  pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Servicing  Agreement with
respect to such Payment Date.

Section 5.05.  Tax  Reporting.  So long as the Depositor or any Affiliate of the
Depositor  owns 100% of the  Certificates,  then no  separate  federal and state
income tax  returns and  information  returns or  statements  will be filed with
respect  to the  Trust.  If the  Tax  Matters  Partner  is no  longer  the  sole
Certificateholder,   the  subsequent   holders  of  the  Certificates  by  their
acceptance of a Certificate,  agree to appoint the Tax Matters  Partner as their
agent and the Tax Matters Partner, as agent for such holders,  agrees to perform
all duties necessary to comply with federal and state income tax laws.

        The   Certificateholders   agree  by  their  purchase  of  100%  of  the
Certificates  to treat the Trust as an entity  wholly owned by the  Depositor or
any  Affiliate  of the  Depositor  for purposes of federal and state income tax,
franchise tax and any other tax measured in whole or in part by income, with the
assets of the entity  being the assets  held by the Trust,  and the Notes  being
debt of the Trust.

evidenced  by or  arising  under  any  of the  Basic  Documents,  including  the

otherwise or in relation to this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document, at

Certificateholders  have  offered to the Owner  Trustee  security  or  indemnity
satisfactory  to it against  the costs,  expenses  and  liabilities  that may be
incurred by the Owner Trustee therein or thereby. The right of the Owner Trustee
to perform any  discretionary  act enumerated in this Trust  Agreement or in any
other Basic  Document  shall not be construed as a duty,  and the Owner  Trustee
shall not be  answerable  for other  than its  negligence,  bad faith or willful
misconduct in the performance of any such act.

Section 6.02.  Furnishing  of Documents.  The Owner Trustee shall furnish to the
Securityholders  promptly upon receipt of a written reasonable request therefor,
duplicates or copies of all reports, notices, requests,  demands,  certificates,

represents   and   warrants   to  the   Depositor,   for  the   benefit  of  the
Certificateholders, that:

(a) It is a banking  corporation  duly  organized  and validly  existing in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. It has all requisite corporate

any of its properties may be bound;

(d) This Trust Agreement, assuming due authorization,  execution and delivery by
the Owner  Trustee and the  Depositor,  constitutes  a valid,  legal and binding
obligation of the Owner Trustee,  enforceable  against it in accordance with the
terms  hereof  subject to  applicable  bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization,
moratorium  and other  laws  affecting  the  enforcement  of  creditors'  rights
generally  and to general  principles  of  equity,  regardless  of whether  such
enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;

(e) The Owner  Trustee is not in default  with respect to any order or decree of
any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or
governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially

Owner Trustee or its properties or might have consequences that would materially
adversely affect its performance hereunder; and

                                        21

(f) No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Owner  Trustee's  knowledge,
threatened against the Owner Trustee which would prohibit its entering into this
Trust Agreement or performing its obligations under this Trust Agreement.

Section 6.04.  Reliance; Advice of Counsel.

(a) The Owner  Trustee  shall  incur no  liability  to anyone in acting upon any
signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate,
report,  opinion,  bond, or other document or paper believed by it to be genuine
and  believed  by it to be  signed by the  proper  party or  parties.  The Owner
Trustee may accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of directors or
other  governing  body of any corporate  party as conclusive  evidence that such
resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full force
and effect. As to any fact or matter the method of determination of which is not
specifically  prescribed  herein,  the Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof
rely on a  certificate,  signed by the president or any vice president or by the
treasurer or other authorized officers of the relevant party, as to such fact or
matter  and such  certificate  shall  constitute  full  protection  to the Owner
Trustee  for any  action  taken or  omitted  to be taken by it in good  faith in
reliance thereon.

(b)  In  the  exercise  or  administration  of the  Trust  hereunder  and in the
performance  of its duties and  obligations  under this Trust  Agreement  or the
other Basic  Documents,  the Owner  Trustee (i) may act  directly or through its
agents,  attorneys,  custodians or nominees  (including  persons  acting under a
power of attorney) pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and the
Owner  Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents,
attorneys,  custodians or nominees  (including  persons  acting under a power of
attorney)  if  such  persons  have  been  selected  by the  Owner  Trustee  with
reasonable  care,  and (ii) may  consult  with  counsel,  accountants  and other
skilled  persons to be selected with  reasonable  care and employed by it at the
expense of the Trust.  The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for anything  done,
suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the opinion or advice
of any such counsel,  accountants or other such Persons and not contrary to this
Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document.

Section  6.05.  Not Acting in  Individual  Capacity.  Except as provided in this
Article VI, in accepting the trusts hereby created Wilmington Trust Company acts
solely as Owner Trustee  hereunder and not in its individual  capacity,  and all
Persons having any claim against the Owner Trustee by reason of the transactions
contemplated by this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document shall look only
to the Trust Estate for payment or satisfaction thereof.

Section 6.06.  Owner Trustee Not Liable for  Certificates or Related  Documents.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signatures
of the Owner Trustee on the  Certificates)  shall be taken as the  statements of
the  Depositor,  and  the  Owner  Trustee  assumes  no  responsibility  for  the
correctness  thereof.  The  Owner  Trustee  makes no  representations  as to the
validity or sufficiency of this Trust Agreement,  of any other Basic Document or
of the  Certificates  (other  than the  signatures  of the Owner  Trustee on the
Certificates) or the Notes, or of any Related Documents. The Owner Trustee shall
at no time have any  responsibility or liability with respect to the sufficiency
of the Trust Estate or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to
Certificateholders  under  this Trust  Agreement  or the  Noteholders  under the
Indenture,  including,  the  compliance  by the Depositor or the Seller with any
warranty  or  representation  made under any Basic  Document  or in any  related
document or the accuracy of any such warranty or  representation,  or any action
of the  Certificate  Paying Agent,  the  Certificate  Registrar or the Indenture
Trustee taken in the name of the Owner Trustee.

Section 6.07. Owner Trustee May Own Certificates and Notes. The Owner Trustee in
its  individual  or any  other  capacity  may  become  the owner or  pledgee  of
Certificates  or  Notes  and may  deal  with  the  Depositor,  the  Seller,  the
Certificate Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Indenture Trustee in
transactions with the same rights as it would have if it were not Owner Trustee.

Percentage Interest of the Certificates, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

or termination of the Owner Trustee or the termination of this Trust  Agreement.
In the event of any  Proceeding  for which  indemnity may be sought  pursuant to

payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Payment Date
is not applicable,  payments being made only upon  presentation and surrender of
the  Certificates  at  the  office  of  the  Certificate  Paying  Agent  therein
specified.  The  Certificate  Paying  Agent  shall give such notice to the Owner
Trustee  and the  Certificate  Registrar  at the time  such  notice  is given to
Certificateholders.  Upon  presentation and surrender of the  Certificates,  the
Certificate  Paying Agent shall cause to be  distributed  to  Certificateholders
amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.01.

        In  the  event  that  all  of  the  Certificateholders  shall  not  have
surrendered their Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date
specified in the above mentioned  written notice,  the Certificate  Paying Agent
shall  give a second  written  notice  to the  remaining  Certificateholders  to
surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution
with  respect  thereto.  Subject to  applicable  laws with respect to escheat of
funds,  if within one year  following the Payment Date on which final payment of
the  Certificates  was to have been  made  pursuant  to  Section  3.10,  all the
Certificates  shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,  the Certificate
Paying  Agent  may  take  appropriate  steps,  or may  appoint  an agent to take
appropriate  steps,  to  contact  the  remaining  Certificateholders  concerning
surrender of their  Certificates,  and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the
funds and other assets that shall remain  subject to this Trust  Agreement.  Any
funds remaining in the  Distribution  Account after  exhaustion of such remedies
shall be distributed by the Certificate Paying Agent to the Certificateholder of
the majority of the Percentage Interest of the Certificates.

                    Successor Owner Trustees and Additional Owner Trustees

Section 9.01.  Eligibility  Requirements  for Owner  Trustee.  The Owner Trustee
shall at all times be a corporation satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a)
of the Business Trust Statute;  authorized to exercise  corporate  trust powers;
having a combined  capital  and surplus of at least  $50,000,000  and subject to
supervision  or  examination  by  federal or state  authorities;  and having (or
having a parent that has) long-term debt obligations with a rating of at least A
by Moody's,  Standard & Poor's or Fitch, if rated by Fitch. If such  corporation
shall publish  reports of condition at least annually  pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid  supervising or examining authority,  then for the
purpose of this Section,  the combined  capital and surplus of such  corporation
shall be deemed to be its combined  capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so  published.  In case at any time the Owner Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in  accordance  with the  provisions  of this Section
9.01,  the Owner  Trustee  shall resign  immediately  in the manner and with the
effect specified in Section 9.02.

Section 9.02.  Replacement of Owner  Trustee.  The Owner Trustee may at any time
resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving 30 days' prior
written notice  thereof to the Enhancer and the  Depositor.  Upon receiving such
notice of resignation,  the Indenture Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor
Owner  Trustee  with the consent of the  Enhancer,  which  consent  shall not be
unreasonably  withheld, by written instrument,  in duplicate,  one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the
successor  Owner  Trustee.  If no  successor  Owner  Trustee  shall have been so
appointed and have accepted  appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of  resignation,  the  resigning  Owner Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

        If at  any  time  the  Owner  Trustee  shall  cease  to be  eligible  in
accordance  with the  provisions  of Section 9.01 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Indenture  Trustee,  or if at any time the Owner
Trustee  shall be  legally  unable  to act,  or shall be  adjudged  bankrupt  or
insolvent,  or a  receiver  of the Owner  Trustee  or of its  property  shall be
appointed,  or any  public  officer  shall  take  charge or control of the Owner
Trustee  or of its  property  or  affairs  for the  purpose  of  rehabilitation,
conservation  or  liquidation,  then the  Indenture  Trustee  may,  and,  at the
direction of the Enhancer,  shall,  remove the Owner  Trustee.  If the Indenture
Trustee shall remove the Owner  Trustee  under the authority of the  immediately
preceding  sentence,  the Indenture  Trustee shall promptly  appoint a successor
Owner Trustee  acceptable to the Enhancer by written  instrument,  in duplicate,
one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so
removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee, and shall pay all fees owed
to the outgoing Owner Trustee.

        Any  resignation  or removal of the Owner Trustee and  appointment  of a
successor Owner Trustee  pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall
not become  effective  until  acceptance of appointment  by the successor  Owner
Trustee  pursuant to Section 9.03 and payment of all fees and  expenses  owed to
the outgoing Owner Trustee.

                                        28

<PAGE>


Section 9.03.  Successor Owner Trustee.  Any successor  Owner Trustee  appointed
pursuant to Section 9.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Indenture
Trustee  and to its  predecessor  Owner  Trustee an  instrument  accepting  such
appointment under this Trust Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal
of the  predecessor  Owner Trustee shall become  effective,  and such  successor
Owner Trustee,  without any further act, deed or conveyance,  shall become fully
vested with all the rights,  powers,  duties and  obligations of its predecessor
under this Trust  Agreement,  with like effect as if  originally  named as Owner
Trustee.  The  predecessor  Owner  Trustee  shall  upon  payment of its fees and
expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements and
monies held by it under this Trust Agreement;  and the predecessor Owner Trustee
shall  execute  and deliver  such  instruments  and do such other  things as may
reasonably  be required for fully and  certainly  vesting and  confirming in the
successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

        No successor Owner Trustee shall accept  appointment as provided in this
Section 9.03 unless at the time of such  acceptance such successor Owner Trustee
shall be eligible pursuant to Section 9.01.

        Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee  pursuant to
this  Section  9.03,  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall mail notice  thereof to all
Certificateholders,  the  Indenture  Trustee,  the  Noteholders  and the  Rating
Agencies. If the Indenture Trustee shall fail to mail such notice within 10 days
after  acceptance  of such  appointment  by the  successor  Owner  Trustee,  the
successor  Owner  Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of
the Indenture Trustee.

Section 9.04.  Merger or Consolidation  of Owner Trustee.  Any Person into which
the  Owner  Trustee  may  be  merged  or  converted  or  with  which  it  may be
consolidated,   or  any  Person   resulting  from  any  merger,   conversion  or
consolidation  to which  the  Owner  Trustee  shall be a  party,  or any  Person
succeeding to all or  substantially  all of the corporate  trust business of the
Owner Trustee,  shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee  hereunder,  without
the execution or filing of any  instrument or any further act on the part of any
of  the  parties  hereto,  anything  herein  to  the  contrary  notwithstanding;
provided,  that such  Person  shall be eligible  pursuant  to Section  9.01 and,
provided,  further,  that the Owner  Trustee shall mail notice of such merger or
consolidation to the Rating Agencies.

Section 9.05. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any
other  provisions  of this  Trust  Agreement,  at any time,  for the  purpose of
meeting  any legal  requirements  of any  jurisdiction  in which any part of the
Trust Estate may at the time be located,  the Owner Trustee shall have the power
and shall execute and deliver all  instruments to appoint one or more Persons to
act as  co-trustee,  jointly with the Owner Trustee,  or as separate  trustee or
trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in
such capacity,  such title to the Trust or any part thereof and,  subject to the
other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties,  obligations,  rights and
trusts as the Owner Trustee may consider  necessary or desirable.  No co-trustee
or separate  trustee  under this Trust  Agreement  shall be required to meet the
terms of eligibility as a successor  Owner Trustee  pursuant to Section 9.01 and
no notice of the  appointment  of any  co-trustee  or separate  trustee shall be
required pursuant to Section 9.03.

                                        29

<PAGE>

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

(a) All rights,  powers,  duties and  obligations  conferred or imposed upon the
Owner  Trustee  shall be conferred  upon and exercised or performed by the Owner
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 Owner 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 Owner 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 Owner Trustee;

     (b) No trustee under this Trust  Agreement  shall be  personally  liable by
reason of any act or omission of any other trustee  under this Trust  Agreement;
and

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

        Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner 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 Trust  Agreement  and the
conditions of this Article IX. 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 Owner
Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions
of this Trust  Agreement,  specifically  including every provision of this Trust
Agreement  relating to the conduct of,  affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Owner Trustee.  Each such instrument  shall be filed with the
Owner Trustee.

        Any  separate  trustee or  co-trustee  may at any time appoint the Owner
Trustee as 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
Trust  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 Owner  Trustee,  to the extent  permitted  by law,  without the
appointment of a new or successor co-trustee or separate trustee.

                                  Miscellaneous

Section 10.01. Amendments.

(a) This Trust  Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties hereto
as specified in this Section 10.01, provided that any such amendment,  except as
provided in paragraph (e) below,  shall be  accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel
addressed  to the  Owner  Trustee  and the  Enhancer  to the  effect  that  such
amendment  (i) complies  with the  provisions  of this Section and (ii) will not
cause the Trust to be subject to an entity level tax.

(b) If the purpose of any such amendment (as detailed therein) is to correct any
mistake, eliminate any inconsistency, cure any ambiguity or deal with any matter
not covered in this Trust  Agreement  (i.e., to give effect to the intent of the
parties),   it  shall  not  be   necessary   to  obtain   the   consent  of  any
Certificateholders,  but the Owner Trustee shall be furnished  with (i) a letter
from each Rating  Agency that the  amendment  will not result in a Rating Event,
determined  without  regard to the  Policy and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that such action will not  adversely  affect in any material  respect the
interests of any  Certificateholder,  and the consent of the  Enhancer  shall be
obtained.

(c) If the purpose of the amendment is to prevent the  imposition of any federal
or state taxes at any time that any Security is outstanding (i.e.,  technical in
nature),   it  shall  not  be   necessary   to  obtain   the   consent   of  any
Certificateholder,  but the Owner Trustee shall be furnished  with an Opinion of
Counsel that such amendment is necessary or helpful to prevent the imposition of
such  taxes  and is not  materially  adverse  to any  Certificateholder  and the
consent of the Enhancer shall be obtained.

(d) If the  purpose  of the  amendment  is to add or  eliminate  or  change  any
provision  of the Trust  Agreement  other  than as  contemplated  in (b) and (c)
above,  the  amendment  shall  require  (i) the consent of the  Enhancer  and an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such action will not  adversely  affect in
any material respect the interests of any  Certificateholder and (ii) either (A)
a letter from each Rating  Agency  that such  amendment  will not cause a Rating
Event,  if  determined  without  regard  to the  Policy  or (B) the  consent  of
Certificateholders  of  Certificates  evidencing  a  majority  of the  aggregate
Certificate  Percentage Interest and the Indenture Trustee;  provided,  however,
that no such  amendment  shall  reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the
timing  of,  payments  received  that  are  required  to be  distributed  on any
Certificate without the consent of each  Certificateholder  affected thereby and
the  Enhancer,   or  reduce  the  aforesaid   percentage  of  Certificates   the
Certificateholders  of which are  required  to  consent  to any such  amendment,
without  the consent of the  Certificateholders  of all such  Certificates  then
outstanding.

(e) No amendment of this Trust  Agreement  may provide for the holding of any of
the Certificates in book-entry form.

(f) If the  purpose of any such  amendment  is to provide  for the  issuance  of
additional  Certificates  representing an interest in the Trust, it shall not be
necessary to obtain the consent of any Certificateholder,  but the Owner Trustee

                                        31

<PAGE>


shall be furnished with (i) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such action
will  not  adversely  affect  in  any  material  respect  the  interests  of any
Certificateholders  and (B) a letter from each Rating  Agency to the effect that
such  amendment will not cause a Rating Event,  if determined  without regard to
the Policy, and the consent of the Enhancer shall be obtained.

(g) Promptly  after the  execution of any such  amendment or consent,  the Owner
Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or
consent to each Certificateholder,  the Indenture Trustee, the Enhancer and each
of  the  Rating  Agencies.  It  shall  not  be  necessary  for  the  consent  of
Certificateholders  or the Indenture  Trustee  pursuant to this Section 10.01 to
approve the particular form of any proposed  amendment or consent,  but it shall
be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of
obtaining such consents (and any other consents of  Certificateholders  provided
for in this Trust  Agreement or in any other Basic  Document)  and of evidencing
the  authorization  of the  execution  thereof  by  Certificateholders  shall be
subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

(h) In connection  with the execution of any amendment to any agreement to which
the Trust is a party,  other than this Trust Agreement,  the Owner Trustee shall
be entitled to receive and  conclusively  rely upon an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that such  amendment is authorized or permitted by the documents  subject
to such amendment and that all conditions  precedent in the Basic  Documents for
the execution  and delivery  thereof by the Trust or the Owner  Trustee,  as the
case may be, have been satisfied.

        Promptly  after the  execution of any  amendment to the  Certificate  of
Trust,  the Owner  Trustee  shall  cause the filing of such  amendment  with the
Secretary of State.

Section 10.02. No Legal Title to Trust Estate. The Certificateholders  shall not
have legal title to any part of the Trust Estate. The  Certificateholders  shall
be entitled to receive  distributions with respect to their undivided beneficial
interest  therein only in accordance  with Articles V and VIII. No transfer,  by
operation  of  law  or  otherwise,  of  any  right,  title  or  interest  of the
Certificateholders  to and in their ownership interest in the Trust Estate shall
operate to terminate this Trust Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any
transferee  to an accounting or to the transfer to it of legal title to any part
of the Trust Estate.

Section  10.03.  Limitations  on Rights of Others.  Except for Section 2.07, the
provisions  of this Trust  Agreement  are  solely  for the  benefit of the Owner
Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders,  the Enhancer and, to the extent
expressly  provided  herein,  the  Indenture  Trustee and the  Noteholders,  and
nothing in this Trust  Agreement  (other than Section 2.07),  whether express or
implied,  shall be  construed to give to any other Person any legal or equitable
right,  remedy or claim in the Trust Estate or under or in respect of this Trust
Agreement or any covenants, conditions or provisions contained herein.

(a) Unless otherwise  expressly  specified or permitted by the terms hereof, all
notices  shall be in writing and shall be deemed given upon  receipt:  if to the
Owner Trustee,  addressed to its Corporate  Trust Office;  if to the Certificate

        evidencing  a  fractional  undivided  interest in GMACM Home Equity Loan
Trust 2000-HE2 (the "Issuer"),  the property of which consists  primarily of the
Mortgage Loans.

        This  Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Estate,
and does not  represent  an  obligation  of or  interest in the  Depositor,  the
Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee or any of their
Affiliates.  This  Certificate is not guaranteed or insured by any  governmental
agency or  instrumentality or by the Depositor,  the Seller,  the Servicer,  the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee or any of their  affiliates.  None of the
Depositor,  the Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee
or any of  their  Affiliates  will  have  any  obligation  with  respect  to any
certificate  or other  obligation  secured by or payable  from  payments  on the
Certificates.

        This certifies that GMAC Mortgage Corporation is the registered owner of
the Certificate  Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate (as set forth
on the face hereof) in certain  distributions  with respect to the Trust Estate,
consisting  primarily  of the  Mortgage  Loans,  created  by  Residential  Asset
Mortgage  Products,  Inc. (the  "Depositor").  The Trust (as defined herein) was
created  pursuant to a trust agreement dated as of June 29, 2000 (as amended and
supplemented  from time to time,  the  "Agreement"),  between the  Depositor and
Wilmington  Trust  Company,  as owner trustee (the "Owner  Trustee,"  which term
includes any successor entity under the Agreement),  a summary of certain of the
pertinent  provisions of which is set forth  hereafter.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the indenture dated as of June 29, 2000,  between the Trust and
the Indenture  Trustee.  This  Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms,  provisions  and  conditions  of the  Agreement,  to which  Agreement the
Certificateholder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents
and by which such Certificateholder is bound.

        Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement,  a distribution  will be made on
the 25th day of each  month  or,  if such 25th day is not a  Business  Day,  the
Business Day immediately following (the "Payment Date"), commencing on the first
Payment Date specified  above,  to the Person in whose name this  Certificate is
registered  at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business  Day, the Business Day  immediately  preceding  such last day) of the
month immediately  preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
in an amount equal to the pro rata portion evidenced by this Certificate  (based

<PAGE>


on the  Percentage  Interest  stated on the face hereon) of the amount,  if any,
required to be distributed to Certificateholders of Certificates on such Payment
Date.  Distributions  on  this  Certificate  will be  made  as  provided  in the
Agreement by the  Certificate  Paying Agent by wire  transfer or check mailed to
the  Certificateholder  of  record  in  the  Certificate  Register  without  the
presentation  or  surrender  of this  Certificate  or the making of any notation
hereon.

        Except as otherwise  provided in the Agreement and  notwithstanding  the
above, the final  distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice
by the Certificate  Paying Agent of the pendency of such  distribution  and only
upon  presentation  and  surrender of this  Certificate  at the office or agency
designated by the  Certificate  Registrar for that purpose in the City and State
of New York. The initial  Certificate  Balance of this  Certificate is set forth
above.  The  Certificate  Balance  hereof  will be  reduced to the extent of the
distributions allocable to principal.

        No transfer  of this  Certificate  will be made unless such  transfer is
exempt from the  registration  requirements  of the  Securities  Act of 1933, as
amended (the  "Securities  Act"), and any applicable state securities laws or is
made in  accordance  the  Securities  Act and such state laws. In the event that
such a transfer is to be made,  (i) the  Certificate  Registrar or the Depositor
may  require  an  opinion of  counsel  acceptable  to and in form and  substance
satisfactory to the  Certificate  Registrar and the Depositor that such transfer
is exempt  (describing the applicable  exemption and the basis therefor) from or
is being made pursuant to the  registration  requirements of the Securities Act,
and of any applicable statute of any state and (ii) the transferee shall execute
an  investment  letter  in the form  described  in the  Agreement  and (iii) the
Certificate  Registrar  shall  require the  transferee  to execute an investment
letter and a  Certificate  of  Non-Foreign  Status in the form  described by the
Agreement (or if a Certificate of Non-Foreign Status is not provided, an Opinion
of  Counsel  as  described  in  the  Agreement),  which  investment  letter  and
certificate or Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of the Trust,  the
Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor. The Certificateholder
hereof  desiring  to effect  such  transfer  shall,  and does  hereby  agree to,
indemnify the Trust,  the Owner  Trustee,  the  Depositor,  the Servicer and the
Certificate  Registrar  against any liability that may result if the transfer is
not so exempt or is not made in accordance  with such federal and state laws. In
connection with any such transfer,  the Certificate  Registrar (unless otherwise
directed by the Depositor) will also require either (i) a representation letter,
in the form as described by the Agreement, stating that the transferee is not an
employee   benefit  or  other  plan  subject  to  the   prohibited   transaction
restrictions  or the fiduciary  responsibility  requirements of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code (a  "Plan"),  any person  acting,  directly or  indirectly,  on
behalf  of any such Plan or any  Person  using the  "plan  assets,"  within  the
meaning of the Department of Labor  Regulations  Section  2510.3-101,  to effect
such acquisition (collectively, a "Plan Investor") or (ii) if such transferee is
a Plan Investor,  an opinion of counsel  acceptable to and in form and substance
satisfactory  to  the  Depositor,  the  Owner  Trustee,  the  Servicer  and  the
Certificate  Registrar,  or a  certification  in the  form of  Exhibit  G to the
Agreement,  to the effect that the  purchase or holding of such  Certificate  is
permissible  under applicable law, will not constitute or result in a prohibited
transaction  under  Section  406 of  ERISA  or  Section  4975  of the  Code  (or
comparable  provisions of any  subsequent  enactments)  and will not subject the
Depositor,  the Owner Trustee, the Servicer or the Certificate  Registrar to any
obligation or liability (including  obligations or liabilities under Section 406
of ERISA or Section  4975 of the Code) in  addition to those  undertaken  in the
Agreement.


<PAGE>


        This  Certificate  is one of a duly  authorized  issue  of  Certificates
designated as GMACM Home Equity Loan-Backed Certificates of the Series specified
hereon (the "Certificates").

        The  Certificateholder  of this Certificate,  by its acceptance  hereof,
agrees  that it will look  solely to the funds on  deposit  in the  Distribution
Account  that have been  released  from the Lien of the  Indenture  for  payment
hereunder and that neither the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity nor the
Depositor is personally liable to the  Certificateholders for any amount payable
under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly  provided in the
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

        The  Certificateholder of this Certificate  acknowledges and agrees that
its  rights  to  receive  distributions  in  respect  of  this  Certificate  are
subordinated to the rights of the Noteholders as described in the Indenture.

        Each  Certificateholder,  by its acceptance of a Certificate,  covenants
and agrees that such  Certificateholder  will not at any time institute  against
the Depositor, or join in any institution against the Depositor or the Trust 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
Certificates, the Notes, the Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents.

        The Agreement permits the amendment thereof as specified below, provided
that any amendment be  accompanied by the consent of the Enhancer and an Opinion
of Counsel to the Owner Trustee to the effect that such amendment  complies with
the provisions of the Agreement and will not cause the Trust to be subject to an
entity  level tax.  If the  purpose  of any such  amendment  is to  correct  any
mistake, eliminate any inconsistency, cure any ambiguity or deal with any matter
not  covered,   it  shall  not  be  necessary  to  obtain  the  consent  of  any
Certificateholder,  but the Owner Trustee shall be furnished  with a letter from
each  Rating  Agency to the effect that such  amendment  will not cause a Rating
Event,  determined without regard to the Policy, and the counsel of the Enhancer
shall be  obtained.  If the  purpose of any such  amendment  is to  prevent  the
imposition  of any  federal  or state  taxes at any time  that any  Security  is
Outstanding,  it  shall  not be  necessary  to  obtain  the  consent  of the any
Certificateholder,  but the Owner Trustee shall be furnished  with an Opinion of
Counsel that such amendment is necessary or helpful to prevent the imposition of
such  taxes  and is not  materially  adverse  to any  Certificateholder  and the
consent of the Enhancer shall be obtained. If the purpose of the amendment is to
add or  eliminate  or change  any  provision  of the  Agreement,  other  than as
specified in the preceding two sentences, the amendment shall require either (a)
a letter from each  Rating  Agency to the effect  that such  amendment  will not
cause a Rating Event, determined without regard to the Policy or (b) the consent
of  Certificateholders  of  a  majority  of  the  Percentage  Interests  of  the
Certificates  and  the  Indenture  Trustee;  provided,  however,  that  no  such
amendment  shall (i)  reduce in any  manner the amount of, or delay the time of,
payments received that are required to be distributed on any Certificate without
the consent of all Certificateholders affected thereby and the Enhancer, or (ii)
reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates the  Certificateholders of which
are  required  to  consent  to any such  amendment  without  the  consent of the
Certificateholders of all such Certificates then outstanding.


<PAGE>


        As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain  limitations therein
set forth,  the transfer of this  Certificate is registerable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this  Certificate for registration of transfer at the
offices or  agencies of the  Certificate  Registrar  maintained  in the City and
State of New York,  accompanied  by a written  instrument  of  transfer  in form
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder
hereof or such  Certificateholder's  attorney duly  authorized  in writing,  and
thereupon one or more new  Certificates of authorized  denominations  evidencing
the  same  Class  and  aggregate  Percentage  Interest  will  be  issued  to the
designated  transferee.  The initial  Certificate  Registrar appointed under the
Agreement is the Owner Trustee.

        Except as provided in the Agreement,  the Certificates are issuable only
in minimum  denominations  of a 10.0000%  Percentage  Interest  and in  integral
multiples of a 0.0001% Percentage Interest in excess thereof. As provided in the
Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates
are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations,  as requested
by the  Certificateholder  surrendering  the same. This Certificate is issued in
the  Percentage  Interest  above;  however,  the  Percentage  Interest  of  this
Certificate  may change in accordance  with Section 3.12 of the  Agreement.  The
Certificateholder  of this  Certificate  hereby  consents  to any  change in its
Percentage Interest in accordance with such Section.

        No service charge will be made for any such  registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment
of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax  or  governmental  charge  payable  in
connection therewith.

        The  Owner  Trustee,  the  Certificate  Paying  Agent,  the  Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Owner Trustee,  the Certificate  Paying Agent, or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,  and none of the Owner Trustee,
the Certificate Paying Agent, the Certificate  Registrar or any such agent shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary.

        This  Certificate  shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware.

        The obligations  created by the Agreement in respect of this Certificate
and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the final distribution of all
moneys or other property or proceeds of the Trust Estate in accordance  with the
terms of the Indenture and the Agreement.

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed
by an authorized  officer of the Owner Trustee,  or an  authenticating  agent by
manual  signature,  this Certificate  shall not be entitled to any benefit under
the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

                        [FORM OF RULE 144A INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION]

                   Description of Rule 144A Securities, including numbers:


        The undersigned seller, as registered holder (the "Seller"),  intends to
transfer the Rule 144A Securities  described above to the undersigned buyer (the
"Buyer").

        1.  In  connection  with  such  transfer  and  in  accordance  with  the
agreements  pursuant to which the Rule 144A Securities  were issued,  the Seller
hereby  certifies the following  facts:  Neither the Seller nor anyone acting on
its behalf has offered, transferred,  pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of the
Rule 144A  Securities,  any  interest in the Rule 144A  Securities  or any other
similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer,  pledge
or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities,  any interest in the Rule 144A
Securities  or any other  similar  security  from,  or otherwise  approached  or
negotiated  with respect to the Rule 144A  Securities,  any interest in the Rule
144A Securities or any other similar security with, any person in any manner, or
made any general  solicitation  by means of general  advertising or in any other
manner,  or taken any other action,  that would constitute a distribution of the
Rule 144A  Securities  under the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"),  or that  would  render the  disposition  of the Rule 144A  Securities  a
violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto,
and that the Seller has not offered the Rule 144A Securities to any person other
than the Buyer or  another  "qualified  institutional  buyer" as defined in Rule
144A under the 1933 Act.

        2. The Buyer warrants and  represents to, and covenants  with, the Owner
Trustee and the Depositor, pursuant to Section 3.05 of the trust agreement dated
as of June 29,  2000  (the  "Agreement"),  between  Residential  Asset  Mortgage
Products,  Inc., as depositor  (the  "Depositor"),  and Norwest Bank  Minnesota,
National  Association,  as  indenture  trustee  (the  "Indenture  Trustee"),  as
follows:

               a. The Buyer  understands  that the Rule 144A Securities have not
        been registered under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of any state.

               b.  The  Buyer  considers  itself  a  substantial,  sophisticated
        institutional investor having such knowledge and experience in financial
        and  business  matters that it is capable of  evaluating  the merits and
        risks of investment in the Rule 144A Securities.

               c. The Buyer has been  furnished with all  information  regarding
        the Rule 144A  Securities  that it has  requested  from the Seller,  the
        Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Servicer.

               d. Neither the Buyer nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered,
        transferred,  pledged,  sold or  otherwise  disposed  of the  Rule  144A
        Securities,  any  interest  in the Rule  144A  Securities  or any  other
        similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer,

<PAGE>


        pledge or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in
        the  Rule  144A  Securities  or any  other  similar  security  from,  or
        otherwise  approached  or  negotiated  with  respect  to the  Rule  144A
        Securities,  any  interest  in the Rule  144A  Securities  or any  other
        similar  security  with,  any person in any manner,  or made any general
        solicitation by means of general  advertising or in any other manner, or
        taken any other action, that would constitute a distribution of the Rule
