Noteholder).

the Class A-I Notes or the Class  A-II  Notes in the  aggregate  are  reduced to
zero,  all principal  payments  will be  distributed  to the remaining  Class or
Classes of Notes until the Note  Balances  thereof have been reduced to zero, in

accordance  with the  amount of any such  Interest  Shortfalls  on such Class of
Notes.

(c) Principal of each Note shall be due and payable in full on the Final Payment
Date as  provided  in the  applicable  form of Note set forth in  Exhibit A. All
principal  payments on the Notes of each Class shall be made in accordance  with

Indenture  Trustee  shall  notify  the  Person  in the  name of  which a Note is

                                        8

registered  at the close of  business  on the Record  Date  preceding  the Final
Payment Date or other final Payment Date,  as  applicable.  Such notice shall be

deposit any amounts that would  otherwise  be paid to the Class SB  Certificates
pursuant  to  Section  3.05(a)(vi),   up  to  the  Excess  Capitalized  Interest
Requirement  for such  Payment  Date,  into the  Capitalized  Interest  Account.
Amounts deposited by the Indenture Trustee into the Capitalized Interest Account
pursuant to this paragraph shall be deposited on the same Payment Date and shall
be deemed to have been distributed to the holder of the Class SB Certificates in
respect  of their  interest  in REMIC  III and  deposited  into the  Capitalized
Interest  Account,  pursuant to their  instruction  to the Indenture  Trustee in
Section 3.10 of the Trust Agreement.

<PAGE>

(a) (i) If the  Servicing  Certificate  specifies  a Policy  Draw Amount for any
Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall make a draw on the Policy in an amount
specified in the Servicing Certificate for such Payment Date or, if no amount is
specified,  the Indenture  Trustee shall make a draw on the Policy in the amount
by which the amount on deposit in the Note Payment Account is less than interest
due on the Notes on such Payment Date.

               (ii) The Indenture Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited
such Policy Draw Amount into the Note  Payment  Account on such  Payment Date to
the extent such amount  relates to clause (a) of the  definition of  "Deficiency
Amount" or clause (b) of the definition of "Insured Amount".

               (iii) To the  extent  such  amount  relates  to clause (b) of the

set forth herein,  but shall not be required to, obtain a surety bond, letter of
credit,  guaranty or reserve  account as a Permitted  Investment  for amounts on
deposit in the Capitalized  Interest Account,  or may arrange for any other form
of additional credit enhancement;  provided, that after prior notice thereto, no
Rating  Agency shall have informed the Issuer that a Rating Event would occur as

that the issuer of any such  instrument or facility and the timing and mechanism
for drawing on such additional  enhancement shall be acceptable to the Indenture
Trustee and the  Enhancer.  It shall be a condition to  procurement  of any such
additional  credit  enhancement that there be delivered to the Indenture Trustee

Trustee and the Enhancer, from counsel to the provider of such additional credit
enhancement with respect to the enforceability thereof and such other matters as
the Indenture  Trustee or the Enhancer may require and (b) an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that the procurement of such additional  enhancement would not (i)
adversely  affect in any  material  respect  the tax  status of the Notes or the
Certificates  or (ii) cause the Issuer to be  taxable  as an  association  (or a
publicly traded partnership) for federal income tax purposes or to be classified

                                   ARTICLE IV

               The Notes; Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture


                                       17
<PAGE>

Section 4.01 The Notes;.  The Notes shall be registered in the name of a nominee
designated  by the  Depository.  Beneficial  Owners will hold  interests  in the
Notes,  through the book-entry  facilities of the Depository in minimum  initial
Note  Balances of $250,000 and integral  multiples of $1,000 in excess  thereof,
and with respect to the Class A-IO Notes, a Notional  Amount equal to $1,000,000
and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

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

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

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

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

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


                                       18
<PAGE>

        Subject to the foregoing, at the option of the Noteholders, Notes may be
exchanged for other Notes of like tenor, in each case in authorized initial Note
Balances evidencing the same aggregate Percentage  Interests,  upon surrender of
the Notes to be exchanged at the Corporate  Trust Office of the Note  Registrar.
Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute and
the Note Registrar shall authenticate and deliver the Notes which the Noteholder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.  Each Note  presented or surrendered
for  registration  of  transfer  or  exchange  shall (if so required by the Note
Registrar) be duly  endorsed by, or be  accompanied  by a written  instrument of
transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Note Registrar duly executed by,
the  Noteholder  thereof or his attorney  duly  authorized  in writing with such
signature  guaranteed by a commercial  bank or trust company located or having a
correspondent  located in The City of New York.  Notes  delivered  upon any such
transfer or exchange will evidence the same obligations, and will be entitled to
the same rights and privileges, as the Notes surrendered.

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

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

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

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

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


                                       19
<PAGE>

replacement Note or payment of a destroyed,  lost or stolen Note pursuant to the
proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in
lieu of which  such  replacement  Note was  issued  presents  for  payment  such
original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover
such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered
or any  Person  taking  such  replacement  Note  from  such  Person to whom such
replacement  Note was  delivered or any  assignee of such Person,  except a bona
fide purchaser,  and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by
the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.

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

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

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

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

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


                                       20

Section 4.06  Book-Entry  Notes.  Each Class of Notes,  upon original  issuance,
shall be issued in the form of  typewritten  Notes  representing  the Book-Entry
Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust Company,  the initial Depository,
by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. Such Notes shall initially be registered on the
Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial  Depository,
and no  Beneficial  Owner shall  receive a  Definitive  Note  representing  such
Beneficial  Owner's  interest in such Note,  except as provided in Section 4.08.
Unless and until  definitive,  fully registered  Notes (the "Definitive  Notes")
have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 4.08:

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

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

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

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

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

Section 4.07 Notices to Depository.  Whenever a notice or other communication to
the Noteholders of the Notes is required under this Indenture,  unless and until
Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section
4.08,  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall give all such  notices and  communications
specified herein to be given to Noteholders of the Notes to the Depository,  and
shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners.

Section 4.08 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Indenture Trustee  determines that the
Depository   is  no  longer   willing  or  able  to   properly   discharge   its
responsibilities  with respect to the Notes and, if  requested by the  Servicer,
the  Indenture  Trustee  is  unable to locate a  qualified  successor,  (ii) the
Indenture  Trustee  elects  to  terminate  the  book-entry  system  through  the
Depository,  or (iii) after the  occurrence  of an Event of Default,  Beneficial
Owners  of  Notes  representing  beneficial  interests  aggregating  at  least a
majority of the  aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes advise the  Depository  in
writing that the  continuation of a book-entry  system through the Depository is


                                       21
<PAGE>

no longer in the best  interests of the Beneficial  Owners,  then the Depository
shall notify all Beneficial  Owners and the Indenture  Trustee of the occurrence
of any such event and of the  availability  of  Definitive  Notes to  Beneficial
Owners  requesting  the same.  Upon  surrender to the  Indenture  Trustee of the
typewritten  Notes  representing  the  Book-Entry  Notes by the  Depository  (or
Percentage Interest of the Book-Entry Notes being transferred pursuant to clause
(iii) above), accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall execute
and the Indenture Trustee shall  authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance
with the instructions of the Depository.  None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar
or the  Indenture  Trustee  shall be liable  for any delay in  delivery  of such
instructions,  and each may  conclusively  rely on,  and shall be  protected  in
relying on,  such  instructions.  Upon the  issuance of  Definitive  Notes,  the
Indenture  Trustee shall  recognize the  Noteholders of the Definitive  Notes as
Noteholders.

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

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

                      (A)    either

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


                                       22
<PAGE>

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

          a)   have become due and payable,

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

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

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

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

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

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

Section 4.12   Subrogation and Cooperation.

(a) The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee  acknowledge that (i) to the extent the
Enhancer  makes payments under the Policy on account of principal of or interest
on the Home  Loans,  the  Enhancer  will be fully  subrogated  to the rights the
Noteholders  to receive such  principal  of and interest on the Home Loans,  and

<PAGE>

(ii) the  Enhancer  shall be paid  such  principal  and  interest  only from the
sources and in the manner provided herein and in the Insurance Agreement for the
payment of such principal and interest.

        The  Indenture   Trustee  shall  cooperate  in  all  respects  with  any
reasonable  request by the  Enhancer  for  action to  preserve  or  enforce  the
Enhancer's  rights or interest under this Indenture or the Insurance  Agreement,
consistent  with  this  Indenture  and  without   limiting  the  rights  of  the
Noteholders  as  otherwise  set  forth  in the  Indenture,  including  upon  the
occurrence and continuance of a default under the Insurance Agreement, a request
(which  request  shall be in writing)  to take any one or more of the  following
actions:

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

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

        other appropriate  action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies
        of the Enhancer hereunder.

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

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

Section 4.14 Temporary Notes.  Pending the preparation of any Definitive  Notes,
the Issuer may execute and upon its written direction, the Indenture Trustee may
authenticate and make available for delivery,  temporary Notes that are printed,
lithographed,   typewritten,   photocopied   or  otherwise   produced,   in  any
denomination,  substantially  of the  tenor of the  Definitive  Notes in lieu of



                                       24
<PAGE>

which  they  are  issued  and  with  such  appropriate  insertions,   omissions,
substitutions  and other  variations  as the officers  executing  such Notes may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

        If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes to
be prepared without  unreasonable delay. After the preparation of the Definitive
Notes,  the temporary  Notes shall be  exchangeable  for  Definitive  Notes upon
surrender  of the  temporary  Notes at the  office or  agency  of the  Indenture
Trustee,  without charge to the Noteholder.  Upon surrender for  cancellation of
any one or more  temporary  Notes,  the Issuer shall  execute and the  Indenture
Trustee  shall  authenticate  and  make  available  for  delivery,  in  exchange
therefor,  Definitive  Notes of authorized  denominations  and of like tenor and
aggregate  principal amount.  Until so exchanged,  such temporary Notes shall in
all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive
Notes.

                              Default And Remedies

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

Section 5.02 Acceleration of Maturity;  Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of
Default shall occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture
Trustee,  acting at the direction of the Noteholders of Notes  representing  not
less than a majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights of the  Notes,  with the
written consent of the Enhancer, may declare the Notes to be immediately due and
payable by a notice in writing to the Issuer  (and to the  Indenture  Trustee if
given by  Noteholders);  and upon any such  declaration,  the  unpaid  principal
amount of the Notes,  together with accrued and unpaid interest  thereon through
the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

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

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


                                       25
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


                                       26

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

(i)  to file and prove a claim or claims for the entire  amount of principal and
     interest  owing and  unpaid in  respect of the Notes and to file such other
     papers or  documents  as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
     claims  of the  Indenture  Trustee  (including  any  claim  for  reasonable
     compensation  to the  Indenture  Trustee  and  each  predecessor  Indenture
     Trustee,  and their  respective  agents,  attorneys  and  counsel,  and for
     reimbursement  of all expenses and liabilities  incurred,  and all advances
     made,  by the Indenture  Trustee and each  predecessor  Indenture  Trustee,
     except as a result of negligence,  willful  misconduct or bad faith) and of
     the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

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

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

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

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


                                       27

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

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

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

Section 5.04   Remedies; Priorities.

(a) If an Event of  Default  shall have  occurred  and be  continuing,  then the
Indenture Trustee,  subject to the provisions of Section 10.17 hereof,  with the
written  consent  of the  Enhancer  may,  or, at the  written  direction  of the
Enhancer,  shall,  do one or more of the  following,  in each  case  subject  to
Section 5.05:

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

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

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

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


                                       28
<PAGE>

provided,  however,  that  the  Indenture  Trustee  may not  sell  or  otherwise
liquidate  the  Trust  Estate  following  an Event of  Default,  unless  (A) the
Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Enhancer, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld, and the Noteholders of 100% of the aggregate Note Balance
of the Notes,  (B) the  proceeds of such sale or  liquidation  distributable  to
Noteholders  are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid
upon the Notes for  principal and interest and to reimburse the Enhancer for any
amounts drawn under the Policy and any other amounts due the Enhancer  under the
Insurance  Agreement or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Home Loans
will not  continue to provide  sufficient  funds for the payment of principal of
and  interest  on the Notes as they would  have  become due if the Notes had not
been declared due and payable,  and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of
the  Enhancer,  which  consent  will  not  be  unreasonably  withheld,  and  the
Noteholders  of 66  2/3%  of  the  aggregate  Voting  Rights  of the  Notes.  In
determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clause (B) and (C)
above,  the Indenture  Trustee may, but need not,  obtain and rely, and shall be
protected in relying in good faith, upon an opinion of an Independent investment
banking or accounting firm of national  reputation as to the feasibility of such
proposed  action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,  provided that a Servicing Default shall not have
occurred, any Sale (as defined in Section 5.15 hereof) of the Trust Estate shall
be made subject to the continued  servicing of the Home Loans by the Servicer as
provided in the Servicing Agreement.  Notwithstanding any sale of the Home Loans
pursuant to this Section  5.04(a),  the Indenture  Trustee shall, for so long as
any principal or accrued  interest on the Notes remains unpaid,  continue to act
as Indenture  Trustee  hereunder and to draw amounts payable under the Policy in
accordance with the terms of the Policy.

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

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

               SECOND:to  the  Noteholders  for  amounts  due and  unpaid on the
               related Notes for interest, including accrued and unpaid interest
               on the  Notes  for  any  prior  Payment  Date,  ratably,  without
               preference or priority of any kind,  according to the amounts due
               and payable on such Notes for interest from amounts  available in
               the Trust Estate for such Noteholders, but excluding any Interest
               Shortfalls;

               THIRD:  to the  Noteholders  for  amounts  due and  unpaid on the
               related  Notes for  principal,  ratably,  without  preference  or
               priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on
               such Notes for  principal,  from  amounts  available in the Trust
               Estate for such  Noteholders,  until the respective Note Balances
               of such Notes have been reduced to zero;

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

               FIFTH:  to the  Noteholders  for  amounts  due and  unpaid on the
               related  Notes for Interest  Shortfalls,  if any,  including  any
               unpaid  Interest  Shortfalls  on the Notes for any prior  Payment

               Date,  ratably,  without  preference  or  priority  of any  kind,
               according to such amounts due and payable from amounts  available
               in the Trust Estate for such Noteholders;

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

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

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

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

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

(a) such Noteholder  shall have previously given written notice to the Indenture
Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the  Noteholders of not less than 25% of the aggregate  Voting Rights of the
Notes shall have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such
Proceeding  in respect  of such  Event of  Default in its own name as  Indenture
Trustee hereunder;

(c) such  Noteholder or  Noteholders  shall have offered the  Indenture  Trustee
reasonable indemnity against the costs,  expenses and liabilities to be incurred
by it in complying with such request;


                                       30
<PAGE>

(d) the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,  request
and offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute such Proceedings; and

(e) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to
the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Noteholders of a majority
of the aggregate Voting Rights of the Notes or by the Enhancer.

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

        In  the  event  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall  receive  conflicting  or
inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each
representing  less than a majority of the aggregate  Voting Rights of the Notes,
the Indenture  Trustee  shall act at the  direction of the group of  Noteholders
with the greater  Voting Rights.  In the event that the Indenture  Trustee shall
receive  conflicting  or  inconsistent  requests and indemnity  from two or more
groups of Noteholders  representing  the same Voting Rights,  then the Indenture
Trustee in its sole  discretion  may  determine  what action,  if any,  shall be
taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

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

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

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


                                       31

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

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

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

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

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

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

Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section,  subject to
Section 6.01, the Indenture  Trustee need not take any action that it determines
(in its sole  discretion)  might  involve it in  liability  or might  materially
adversely  affect the rights of any  Noteholders  not consenting to such action,
unless the Trustee has received  satisfactory  indemnity  from the Enhancer or a
Noteholder.

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


                                       32
<PAGE>

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

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

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

Section 5.15   Sale of Trust Estate.

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

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

(i)  the Noteholders of all Notes and the Enhancer direct the Indenture  Trustee
     to make, such Sale,


                                       33
<PAGE>

(ii) the  proceeds  of such Sale would be not less than the entire  amount  that
     would be payable to the Noteholders under the Notes, the Certificateholders
     under the  Certificates  and the Enhancer in respect of amounts drawn under
     the Policy  and any other  amounts  due the  Enhancer  under the  Insurance
     Agreement,  in full payment thereof in accordance with Section 5.02, on the
     Payment Date next succeeding the date of such Sale, or

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

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

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

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

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

     (ii) the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the property offered for
          Sale  in  connection  with  any  Sale  thereof  and,  subject  to  any
          requirements  of, and to the extent  permitted by,  applicable  law in
          connection  therewith,  may  purchase  all or any portion of the Trust
          Estate  in a  private  sale.  In lieu of  paying  cash  therefor,  the
          Indenture  Trustee  may  make  settlement  for the  purchase  price by
          crediting  the gross Sale price against the sum of (A) the amount that
          would be distributable  to the Noteholders and the  Certificateholders


                                       34
<PAGE>

          and  amounts  owing  to the  Enhancer  as a  result  of  such  Sale in
          accordance  with Section  5.04(b) on the Payment Date next  succeeding
          the  date of such  Sale  and (B) the  expenses  of the Sale and of any
          Proceedings  in  connection  therewith  that are  reimbursable  to it,
          without  being  required to produce the Notes in order to complete any
          such Sale or in order for the net Sale  price to be  credited  against
          such Notes,  and any  property so  acquired by the  Indenture  Trustee
          shall be held and dealt with by it in accordance  with the  provisions
          of this Indenture;

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

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

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

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

Section 5.17   Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.

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


                                       35
<PAGE>

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

Section 6.01   Duties of Indenture Trustee.

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,  the Indenture
Trustee shall  exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and
use the same  degree of care and  skill in their  exercise  as a prudent  Person
would  exercise or use under the  circumstances  in the conduct of such Person's
own affairs.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

or the Trust Agreement.



                                       37
<PAGE>

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

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

(h) With respect to each Payment Date, on the Business Day following the related
Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall forward or cause to be forwarded
by mail, or other mutually agreed-upon method, to the Enhancer and the Servicer,
a statement  setting forth,  to the extent  applicable,  during the  Pre-Funding
Period, the Pre-Funded Amount as of such Payment Date and any transfers of funds
in connection therewith.

(i) The Indenture Trustee hereby accepts appointment as Certificate Paying Agent
under the Trust  Agreement and agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Trust
Agreement relating to the Certificate Paying Agent. The Indenture Trustee hereby
agrees to be bound by the provisions of Article IX of the Trust Agreement.

(j) The  Indenture  Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to
have notice or knowledge of any Event of Default (except for an Event of Default
specified in clause (a) of the definition  thereof) unless a Responsible Officer
of the  Indenture  Trustee  shall have  received  written  notice or have actual
knowledge  thereof.  In the absence of receipt of such notice or such knowledge,
the Indenture Trustee may conclusively  assume that there is no default or Event
of Default.

(k) The  Indenture  Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording or filing
of any  financing  statement  or  continuation  statement  evidencing a security
interest or to see to the  maintenance of any such recording or filing or to any
rerecording or refiling of any thereof.

Section 6.02   Rights of Indenture Trustee.

(a) The  Indenture  Trustee  may  rely and  shall  be  protected  in  acting  or
refraining from acting in good faith upon any resolution, Officer's Certificate,
opinion  of  counsel,   certificate  of  auditors,  or  any  other  certificate,
statement,  instrument, report, notice, consent or other document believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed or  presented  by the proper  person.  The
Indenture  Trustee need not  investigate  any fact or matter  stated in any such
document.

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

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

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

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

               The  Indenture  Trustee  shall not be  personally  liable for any
action  taken,  suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be
authorized  or within the  discretion or rights or powers  conferred  upon it by
this  Agreement,  unless  it shall be  proved  that the  Indenture  Trustee  was
negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

(e) Prior to the  occurrence  of an Event of  Default  hereunder,  and after the
curing or waiver of all Events of Default that may have occurred,  the Indenture
Trustee shall not be bound to make any  investigation  into the facts or matters
stated in any resolution,  certificate,  statement, instrument, opinion, report,
notice,  request,  consent,  order,  approval,  bond or other paper or document,
unless requested in writing to do so by the Enhancer or Noteholders representing
a majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights;  provided,  however,  that if the
payment within a reasonable time to the Indenture Trustee of the costs, expenses
or liabilities  likely to be incurred by it in the making of such  investigation
is, in the  opinion of the  Indenture  Trustee,  not  assured  to the  Indenture
Trustee  by the  security  afforded  to it by the terms of this  Indenture,  the
Indenture  Trustee may require  indemnity  satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee
against  such  cost,  expense or  liability  as a  condition  to taking any such
action.

(f) The  Indenture  Trustee  shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts or powers  vested in it by this  Agreement  or to  institute,  conduct or
defend any litigation  hereunder or in relation hereto at the request,  order or
direction of any of the Noteholders or the Enhancer,  pursuant to the provisions
of this Agreement,  unless the Noteholders or the Enhancer shall have offered to
the  Indenture  Trustee  reasonable  security  or  indemnity  against the costs,
expenses  and  liabilities  which may be incurred  therein or  thereby;  nothing
contained  herein  shall,   however,   relieve  the  Indenture  Trustee  of  the
obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (which has not been cured
or  waived),  to  exercise  such of the rights  and powers  vested in it by this
Agreement,  and to use the same degree of care and skill in their  exercise as a
prudent investor would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such investor's own affairs.

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

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

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

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

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


                                       40
<PAGE>

the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer
shall defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel
and the Issuer  shall pay the fees and expenses of such  counsel.  The Issuer is
not obligated to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss,  liability
or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee's own
willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

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

Section 6.08 Replacement of Indenture Trustee.  No resignation or removal of the
Indenture  Trustee and no  appointment  of a successor  Indenture  Trustee shall
become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor  Indenture
Trustee  pursuant to this Section 6.08. The Indenture  Trustee may resign at any
time  by so  notifying  the  Issuer  and  the  Enhancer.  The  Enhancer  or  the
Noteholders  of a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes may remove
the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and the Enhancer (if
given by such Noteholders) and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. Unless
a Servicer  Default has  occurred  and is  continuing,  the  appointment  of any
successor  Indenture  Trustee shall be subject to the prior written  approval of
the Servicer. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

(a)     the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

(b)     the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

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

(d) the Indenture  Trustee  otherwise becomes incapable of fulfilling its duties
under the Basic Documents.

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

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


                                       41
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

        If at  the  time  of  any  such  succession  by  merger,  conversion  or
consolidation, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered,
then any such  successor to the Indenture  Trustee may adopt the  certificate of
authentication   of  any  predecessor   trustee,   and  deliver  such  Notes  so
authenticated.   If  at  such  time  any  of  the  Notes  shall  not  have  been
authenticated,  any successor to the  Indenture  Trustee may  authenticate  such
Notes  either  in the name of any  predecessor  hereunder  or in the name of the
successor to the Indenture  Trustee;  and in all such cases,  such  certificates
shall have the full force that it is anywhere in the Notes or in this  Indenture
provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

Section 6.10  Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee.

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


                                       42
<PAGE>

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

(i)  all rights,  powers,  duties and obligations  conferred or imposed upon the
     Indenture  Trustee  shall be  conferred  or imposed  upon and  exercised or
     performed by the Indenture  Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
     jointly (it being  understood  that such separate  trustee or co-trustee is
     not authorized to act separately  without the Indenture  Trustee joining in
     such act),  except to the extent that under any law of any  jurisdiction in
     which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture  Trustee
     shall be  incompetent  or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which
     event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of
     title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such  jurisdiction)
     shall be  exercised  and  performed  singly  by such  separate  trustee  or
     co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee;

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

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

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

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

     Section 6.11 Eligibility;  Disqualification. The Indenture Trustee shall at
all times satisfy the  requirements  of TIA ss.  310(a).  The Indenture  Trustee
shall have a combined  capital and surplus of at least  $50,000,000 as set forth


                                       43
<PAGE>

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

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

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

(a) The  Indenture  Trustee  is duly  organized,  validly  existing  and in good
standing as a national  banking  association with power and authority to own its

by all necessary corporate action.

(c) The consummation of the transactions  contemplated by this Indenture and the
fulfillment  of the terms hereof do not conflict  with,  result in any breach of

Indenture  Trustee or any  agreement or other  instrument to which the Indenture
Trustee is a party or by which it is bound.

(d) To the Indenture  Trustee's  best  knowledge,  there are no  Proceedings  or
investigations  pending  or  threatened  before  any  court,   regulatory  body,

this  Indenture,  (B)  seeking  to  prevent  the  consummation  of  any  of  the
transactions  contemplated by this Indenture or (C) seeking any determination or
ruling  that  might  materially  and  adversely  affect the  performance  by the
Indenture  Trustee of its obligations  under, or the validity or  enforceability
of, this Indenture.

(a) On or prior to the  Closing  Date,  the  Issuer  shall  cause the  Indenture

benefit of the Noteholders  and the  Certificate  Paying Agent, on behalf of the
Certificateholders,  and the Enhancer,  the Note Payment  Account as provided in
Section 3.01 of this Indenture.

(b) All monies  deposited from time to time in the Note Payment Account pursuant
to the Servicing  Agreement and all deposits  therein pursuant to this Indenture

of the Certificateholders,  and all investments made with such monies, including
all  income or other  gain from such  investments,  are for the  benefit  of the
Servicer as provided in Section 5.01 of the Servicing Agreement.

        On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall distribute all amounts
on deposit in the Note  Payment  Account  to the  Noteholders  in respect of the

        enacted and to add to this  Indenture  such other  provisions  as may be
        expressly required by TIA;

provided,  however,  that no such  supplemental  indenture shall be entered into
unless the Indenture  Trustee and the Enhancer shall have received an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that the execution of such supplemental indenture will not
give rise to any Adverse REMIC Event.

        The Indenture  Trustee is hereby  authorized to join in the execution of

        The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any
Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination
shall be conclusive  upon the Noteholders of all Notes,  whether  theretofore or
thereafter  authenticated and delivered  hereunder.  The Indenture Trustee shall
not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

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

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

Section 9.03 Execution of Supplemental  Indentures.  In executing, or permitting
the additional trusts created by, any supplemental  indenture  permitted by this
Article IX or the modification  thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture,

stating that the  execution of such  supplemental  indenture  is  authorized  or
permitted  by this  Indenture.  The  Indenture  Trustee  may,  but  shall not be
obligated  to,  enter into any such  supplemental  indenture  that  affects  the

Indenture or otherwise.

Section  9.04  Effect  of  Supplemental  Indenture.  Upon the  execution  of any

respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of
rights, obligations,  duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of
the  Indenture  Trustee,  the Issuer and the  Noteholders  shall  thereafter  be
determined,  exercised  and enforced  hereunder  subject in all respects to such
modifications  and  amendments,  and all the  terms and  conditions  of any such

(b) (i) Prior to the deposit of any  Collateral or other  property or securities
with the  Indenture  Trustee that is to be made the basis for the release of any
property or securities subject to the lien of this Indenture,  the Issuer shall,
in addition to any obligation  imposed in Section  10.01(a) or elsewhere in this
Indenture,  furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying

     also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Independent  Certificate as to the
     same  matters if the fair value of the  property or  securities  and of all
     other property,  other than property as contemplated by clause (v) below or
     securities  released from the lien of this Indenture since the commencement
     of the  then-current  calendar  year,  as  set  forth  in the  certificates

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

Section 10.02  Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee.

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

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

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

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

transmit any notice received by it from the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the
Noteholders to the Issuer or Indenture Trustee, as the case may be.

        Notices  required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer,  the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered
or mailed by certified  mail,  return receipt  requested,  to (i) in the case of
Moody's,  at  the  following  address:  Moody's  Investors  Service,  Inc.,  ABS
Monitoring  Department,  99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007, (ii) in the

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

        Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner,  such notice may
be waived in writing by any Person  entitled  to  receive  such  notice,  either
before or after the  event,  and such  waiver  shall be the  equivalent  of such
notice.  Waivers  of notice by  Noteholders  shall be filed  with the  Indenture
Trustee,  but such filing shall not be a condition  precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

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

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

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

Section 10.07 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits,
qualifies or  conflicts  with  another  provision  hereof that is required to be

provision shall control.

        The  provisions of TIA ss.ss.  310 through 317 that impose duties on any
Person  (including the provisions  automatically  deemed  included herein unless
expressly  excluded by this  Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,

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

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

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

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

partner,  owner or beneficiary  shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by
applicable  law,  for  any  unpaid   consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                REMIC Provisions

Section 11.01 REMIC Administration.

(a) The REMIC  Administrator shall make an election to treat the Trust Estate as
three REMICs under the Code and, if necessary,  under  applicable  state law, in
accordance with Section 2.06 of the Trust Agreement . Such election will be made
on Form 1066 or other appropriate  federal tax or information  return (including
Form 8811) or any  appropriate  state  return for the taxable year ending on the
last day of the  calendar  year in which  the  Securities  are  issued.  For the
purposes of the REMIC  elections in respect of the Trust Estate,  Securities and
interests  to be  designated  as the "regular  interests"  and the sole class of
"residual interests" in each REMIC will be set forth in Section 11.03. The REMIC
Administrator  and the Trustee shall not permit the creation of any  "interests"
(within  the  meaning  of  Section  860G of the Code) in each  REMIC  elected in
respect  of the Trust  Fund other than the  "regular  interests"  and  "residual
interests" so designated.

(b) The Closing Date is hereby  designated as the "startup day" of each of REMIC
I, REMIC II and REMIC III as designated in Section 11.03 below, the Trust Estate
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

(c) GMAC Mortgage  Corporation shall hold a Class R Certificate  representing at
least a 0.01% Percentage  Interest in each Class of the Class R Certificates and
shall be  designated  as "the tax matters  person" with respect to each REMIC in
the manner provided under Treasury  regulations section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury
regulations section 301.6231(a)(7)-1.  The REMIC Administrator, on behalf of the
Tax  Matters  Partner,  shall (i) act on behalf of each REMIC in relation to any
tax matter or  controversy  involving  the Trust Estate and (ii)  represent  the
Trust  Estate  in any  administrative  or  judicial  proceeding  relating  to an
examination or audit by any governmental  taxing authority with respect thereto.
The legal  expenses,  including  without  limitation  attorneys' or accountants'
fees,  and costs of any such  proceeding and any liability  resulting  therefrom
shall be  expenses  of the Trust  Estate  and the REMIC  Administrator  shall be
entitled to reimbursement  therefor out of amounts  attributable to the Mortgage
Loans on deposit in the Custodial  Account  unless such legal expenses and costs
are incurred by reason of the REMIC  Administrator's  willful  misfeasance,  bad
faith or gross negligence.


                                       59
<PAGE>


(d) The REMIC Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared all of the Tax
Returns  that it  determines  are required  with  respect to each REMIC  created
hereunder and, if approval  therefore is received from the  applicable  District
Director of the Internal Revenue Service,  shall sign and file such returns in a
timely manner and, otherwise,  shall, shall deliver such Tax Returns in a timely
manner to the Owner  Trustee,  if the Owner  Trustee  is  required  to sign such
returns in accordance with Section 5.03 of the Trust  Agreement,  and shall sign
(if the Owner  Trustee is not so required) and file such Tax Returns in a timely
manner.  The  expenses of  preparing  such  returns  shall be borne by the REMIC
Administrator   without  any  right  of   reimbursement   therefor.   The  REMIC
Administrator  agrees to  indemnify  and hold  harmless  the Owner  Trustee with
respect to any tax or liability  arising from the Owner Trustee's signing of Tax
Returns that contain  errors or omissions.  The  Indenture  Trustee and Servicer
shall  promptly  provide the REMIC  Administrator  with such  information as the
REMIC  Administrator  may from time to time  request for the purpose of enabling
the REMIC Administrator to prepare Tax Returns.

(e) The REMIC  Administrator  shall  provide (i) to any  Transferor of a Class R
Certificate  such  information  as is necessary for the  application  of any tax
relating  to the  transfer of a Class R  Certificate  to any Person who is not a
Permitted  Transferee,  (ii) to the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee
shall forward to the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, such information or
reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC  Provisions  including  reports
relating to interest,  original  issue  discount and market  discount or premium
(using the Prepayment  Assumption) and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the
name,  title,  address and telephone  number of the person who will serve as the
representative of each REMIC.

(f) The Servicer and the REMIC  Administrator  shall take such actions and shall
cause each REMIC created hereunder to take such actions as are reasonably within
the Servicer's or the REMIC Administrator's  control and the scope of its duties
more  specifically  set  forth  herein as shall be  necessary  or  desirable  to
maintain the status of each REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions (and the
Indenture Trustee shall assist the Servicer and the REMIC Administrator,  to the
extent  reasonably  requested by the Servicer and the REMIC  Administrator to do
so).  The  Servicer  and  the  REMIC   Administrator   shall  not  knowingly  or
intentionally take any action, cause the Trust Estate to take any action or fail
to take (or fail to  cause to be  taken)  any  action  reasonably  within  their
respective  control that, under the REMIC Provisions,  if taken or not taken, as
the case may be,  could (i)  endanger  the  status of any  portion of any of the
REMICs  as a REMIC or (ii)  result  in the  imposition  of a tax upon any of the
REMICs  (including  but not  limited to the tax on  prohibited  transactions  as
defined  in Section  860F(a)(2)  of the Code and the tax on  contributions  to a
REMIC set forth in  Section  860G(d) of the Code)  (either  such  event,  in the
absence of an Opinion of  Counsel  or the  indemnification  referred  to in this
sentence,   an  "Adverse   REMIC  Event")  unless  the  Servicer  or  the  REMIC
Administrator, as applicable, has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense
of the party  seeking to take such  action  or, if such party  fails to pay such
expense, and the Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable,  determines
that  taking such  action is in the best  interest  of the Trust  Estate and the
Noteholders and the Certificateholders,  at the expense of the Trust Estate, but
in no event at the expense of the Servicer,  the REMIC Administrator,  the Owner
Trustee or the  Indenture  Trustee) to the effect that the  contemplated  action
will not, with respect to each REMIC created hereunder, endanger such status or,
unless the Servicer,  the REMIC Administrator or both, as applicable,  determine
in its or their sole  discretion  to  indemnify  the Trust  Estate  against  the
imposition of such a tax,  result in the  imposition of such a tax.  Wherever in
this Agreement a contemplated action may not be taken because the timing of such
action might result in the imposition of a tax on the Trust Estate,  or may only


                                       60
<PAGE>

be taken  pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel  that such action would not impose a
tax on the Trust Estate,  such action may nonetheless be taken provided that the
indemnity  given in the preceding  sentence with respect to any taxes that might
be imposed on the Trust  Estate has been given and that all other  preconditions
to the taking of such action have been  satisfied.  The Indenture  Trustee shall
not take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized  hereunder) as to
which the Servicer or the REMIC Administrator,  as applicable, has advised it in
writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse
REMIC Event could  occur with  respect to such  action.  In  addition,  prior to
taking any action with  respect to any of the REMICs  created  hereunder  or any
related assets thereof,  or causing any of the REMICs to take any action,  which
is not  expressly  permitted  under the terms of this  Agreement,  the Indenture
Trustee  will  consult  with  the  Servicer  or  the  REMIC  Administrator,   as
applicable,  or its  designee,  in writing,  with respect to whether such action
could cause an Adverse  REMIC Event to occur with  respect to any of the REMICs,
and the  Indenture  Trustee shall not take any such action or cause either REMIC
to take any such action as to which the Servicer or the REMIC Administrator,  as
applicable,  has advised it in writing that an Adverse  REMIC Event could occur.
The Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, may consult with counsel
to make such  written  advice,  and the cost of same shall be borne by the party
seeking to take the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement,  but in no
event at the expense of the Servicer or the REMIC Administrator. At all times as
may be required by the Code,  the Servicer will to the extent within its control
and the  scope of its  duties  more  specifically  set  forth  herein,  maintain
substantially  all of the assets of each REMIC  created  hereunder as "qualified
mortgages"  as  defined  in  Section  860G(a)(3)  of  the  Code  and  "permitted
investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(g) In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited  transactions" of any of
the REMICs  created  hereunder as defined in Section  860F(a)(2) of the Code, on
"net  income  from  foreclosure  property"  of any of the  REMICs as  defined in
Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to any of the REMICs after the
Startup Day therefor  pursuant to Section  860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax
is imposed by the Code or any applicable  provisions of state or local tax laws,
such tax shall be  charged  (i) to the  Servicer,  if such tax  arises out of or
results  from a breach by the  Servicer  of any of its  obligations  under  this
Agreement or the Servicer has in its sole discretion determined to indemnify the
Trust Estate against such tax, (ii) to the Indenture Trustee, if such tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its  obligations  under
this Article XI, or (iii) otherwise  against amounts on deposit in the Custodial
Account and on the Payment Date(s) following such reimbursement the aggregate of
such taxes shall be allocated  in reduction of the accrued  interest due on each
Class entitled thereto on a pro rata basis.


                                       61
<PAGE>

(h) The  Indenture  Trustee  and the  Servicer  shall,  for  federal  income tax
purposes,  maintain  books  and  records  with  respect  to each  REMIC  created
hereunder  on a calendar  year and on an accrual  basis or as  otherwise  may be
required by the REMIC Provisions.

(i)  Following the Startup Day,  neither the Servicer nor the Indenture  Trustee
shall accept any  contributions of assets to any of the REMICs created hereunder
unless  (subject to Section  11.01(f))  the Servicer and the  Indenture  Trustee
shall have  received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party  seeking
to make such  contribution)  to the effect that the  inclusion of such assets in
such REMIC will not cause any of the REMICs to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
time that any Notes or Certificates are outstanding or subject any of the REMICs
to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal,
state and local law or ordinances.

(j) Neither the Servicer  nor the Trustee  shall  (subject to Section  11.01(f))
enter into any  arrangement  by which any of the REMICs  created  hereunder will
receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit any of the REMICs to
receive any income from assets other than  "qualified  mortgages"  as defined in
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or "permitted  investments" as defined in Section
860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(k)  Solely for the  purposes  of Section  1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii)  of the  Treasury
Regulations,  the  "latest  possible  maturity  date" by which  the  Certificate
Principal Balance of each Class of Notes and Certificates representing a regular
interest in the applicable REMIC is the Final Payment Date.

(l) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the REMIC Administrator shall prepare
and file with the Internal  Revenue Service Form 8811,  "Information  Return for
Real Estate Mortgage  Investment  Conduits (REMIC) and Issuers of Collateralized
Debt Obligations" for each REMIC created hereunder.

(m) Neither the  Indenture  Trustee nor the Servicer  shall sell,  dispose of or
substitute  for any of the Mortgage  Loans  (except in  connection  with (i) the
default,  imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan,  including but not
limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged  Property acquired by deed in
lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of any of the REMICs created hereunder,
(iii) the  termination of the  applicable  REMIC pursuant to Section 3.05 of the
Trust  Agreement or (iv) a purchase of Mortgage  Loans  pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement) nor acquire any assets for any of the REMICs,  nor sell or dispose of
any  investments  in the Custodial  Account or the Payment  Account for gain nor
accept any  contributions  to any of the REMICs after the Closing Date unless it
has received an Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition,  substitution or
acquisition  will not (a) affect  adversely the status of any of the REMICs as a
REMIC or (b)  unless the  Servicer  has  determined  in its sole  discretion  to
indemnify the Trust Estate against such tax, cause either REMIC to be subject to
a tax on  "prohibited  transactions"  or  "contributions"  pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions.

(n) The  Trustee  will  apply for an  employer  identification  number  from the
Internal Revenue Service on a Form SS-4 or any other  acceptable  method for all
tax entities.

and costs  (including,  without  limitation,  any  reasonable  attorneys'  fees)

Trustee  or the  Indenture  Trustee,  as a  result  of a  breach  of  the  REMIC
Administrator's  covenants  set  forth  in  this  Article  XI  with  respect  to
compliance  with  the  REMIC  Provisions,   including  without  limitation,  any
penalties arising from the [Owner]  Trustee's  execution of Tax Returns prepared
by the REMIC Administrator that contain errors or omissions;  provided, however,
that such liability will not be imposed to the extent such breach is a result of
an error or omission in information  provided to the REMIC  Administrator by the
Servicer in which case Section 11.02(c) will apply.

and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware  (herein referred to as the
"Issuer"),  for  value  received,  hereby  promises  to pay to Cede & Co. or its
registered   assigns,   the  principal  sum  of  five  hundred  million  dollars
($500,000,000),  payable on each Payment Date in an amount equal to the pro rata

the Initial Note  Balance of all Class A-I Notes) of the  aggregate  amount,  if
any,  payable from the Note Payment Account in respect of principal of the Class
A-I Notes (the "Notes")  pursuant to Section 3.05 of the  indenture  dated as of

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest Period subject to limitations that may result
in Interest  Shortfalls (as further  described in the Indenture).  The Note Rate
for this Note will be a fixed  rate  equal to the  lesser of (i) 6.17% per annum
(or, for the Interest Period beginning after the first Payment Date on which the
aggregate  Pool Balance is less than 10% of the initial Pool Balance,  6.67% per
annum) and (ii) the related Net WAC Rate.  Interest on this Note will accrue for
each Payment Date during the calendar  month  preceding  the month in which such
Payment  Date occurs.  Interest  will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30 day months. Principal of and interest on this Note shall
be paid in the manner specified herein.

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Home Equity Loan-Backed Term Notes, Series 2001-HE1 (the
"Series 2001-HE1 Notes"), all issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and
all indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the respective  rights and obligations  thereunder of the Issuer,  the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2001-HE1  Notes.  The Series 2001-HE1
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

        The Series  2001-HE1 Notes  (collectively,  the "Notes") are and will be
equally and ratably  secured by the collateral  pledged as security  therefor as
provided in the Indenture.

        This  Note  is  entitled  to  the   benefits  of  an   irrevocable   and
unconditional  financial  guaranty  insurance  policy  issued by MBIA  Insurance
Corporation.

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing  on April 25, 2001,  as described in the  Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture Trustee, the Enhancer or the Noteholders of Notes representing not
less than a majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights of the  Notes,  with the
consent of the Enhancer, may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable
in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the Indenture.  All principal payments
on the  Notes  shall  be made  pro rata to the  Noteholders  of  Notes  entitled
thereto.

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.

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

<PAGE>

Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.

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

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2001-HE1  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee  with  the  consent  of  the  Enhancer  and  the  Noteholders  of  Notes
representing  a  majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights of the  Notes  then
Outstanding  and with prior notice to the Rating  Agencies.  The Indenture  also
contains provisions  permitting the Noteholders of Notes representing  specified
percentages of the Voting Rights of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes, on behalf of the
Noteholders of all Series 2001-HE1 Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with
certain  provisions  of the  Indenture  and  certain  past  defaults  under  the
Indenture and their  consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder
of this Note (or any one of more  predecessor  Notes)  shall be  conclusive  and
binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of
any Note issued upon the  registration  of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof
or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
this Note.  The Indenture  also permits the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee to
amend or waive certain terms and conditions  set forth in the Indenture  without
the consent of  Noteholders of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes issued  thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and the Enhancer.

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders under the Indenture.

provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

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

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

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.  in  its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

        GMACM Home Equity Loan Trust  2001-HE1,  a business trust duly organized
and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware  (herein referred to as the
"Issuer"),  for  value  received,  hereby  promises  to pay to Cede & Co. or its
registered  assigns,  the principal sum of forty-nine million four hundred eight
thousand dollars ($49,408,000),  payable on each Payment Date in an amount equal
to the pro rata  portion  allocable  hereto  (based on the Initial  Note Balance
specified  above and the Initial Note Balance of all Class A-II-1  Notes) of the
aggregate  amount,  if any,  payable from the Note Payment Account in respect of
principal of the Class A-II-1  Notes (the  "Notes")  pursuant to Section 3.05 of
the indenture dated as of March 29, 2001 (the  "Indenture"),  between the Issuer
and Wells Fargo Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  as indenture  trustee  (the  "Indenture
Trustee");  provided,  however,  that the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest Period subject to limitations that may result
in Interest  Shortfalls (as further  described in the Indenture).  The Note Rate
for each Interest Period will be a floating rate equal to the least of (i) LIBOR
plus 0.12% per annum,  (ii) 10.00% per annum and (iii) the related Net WAC Rate.
LIBOR for each  applicable  Interest  Period will be determined as of the second
LIBOR Business Day immediately preceding (i) the Closing Date in the case of the
first Interest Period and (ii) the first day of each succeeding  Interest Period
by the Indenture  Trustee as set forth in the Indenture.  All  determinations of
LIBOR by the  Indenture  Trustee  shall,  in the absence of manifest  error,  be
conclusive  for all purposes,  and each holder of this Note,  by accepting  this
Note,  agrees  to be bound by such  determination.  Interest  on this  Note will
accrue for each Payment Date from the most recent Payment Date on which interest
has been paid (in the case of the first Payment Date,  from the Closing Date) to
but excluding  such Payment Date.  Interest will be computed on the basis of the
actual number of days in each  Interest  Period and a year assumed to consist of
360 days.  Principal  of and  interest  on this Note shall be paid in the manner
specified herein.

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated  as its GMACM Home Equity  Loan-Backed  Notes,  Series  2001-HE1 (the

all indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the respective  rights and obligations  thereunder of the Issuer,  the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2001-HE1  Notes.  The Series 2001-HE1

in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the

Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by

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

Trustee  with  the  consent  of  the  Enhancer  and  the  Noteholders  of  Notes
representing  a  majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights of the  Notes  then
Outstanding  and with prior notice to the Rating  Agencies.  The Indenture  also
contains provisions  permitting the Noteholders of Notes representing  specified
percentages of the Voting Rights of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes, on behalf of the
Noteholders of all Series 2001-HE1 Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with
certain  provisions  of the  Indenture  and  certain  past  defaults  under  the
Indenture and their  consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder
of this Note (or any one of more  predecessor  Notes)  shall be  conclusive  and
binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of
any Note issued upon the  registration  of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof
or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
this Note.  The Indenture  also permits the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee to
amend or waive certain terms and conditions  set forth in the Indenture  without
the consent of  Noteholders of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes issued  thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and the Enhancer.

of the  aggregate  amount,  if any,  payable  from the Note  Payment  Account in
respect of principal of the Class A-II-4 Notes (the "Notes") pursuant to Section

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest Period. The Note Rate for this Note will be a
fixed rate equal to 6.20% per annum.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  the Note
Rate on this Note will increase by 0.50% to 6.70% per annum  beginning  with the

Payment Date on which the aggregate  Pool Balance of the Home Loans is less than
10% of the  initial  Pool  Balance.  Interest  on this Note will accrue for each
Payment Date during the calendar month preceding the month in which such Payment
Date occurs. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30 day months. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in
the manner specified herein.

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated  as its GMACM Home Equity  Loan-Backed  Notes,  Series  2001-HE1 (the
"Series 2001-HE1 Notes"), all issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and
all indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the respective  rights and obligations  thereunder of the Issuer,  the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2001-HE1  Notes.  The Series 2001-HE1
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

        The Series 2001-HE1 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.

        This  Note  is  entitled  to  the   benefits  of  an   irrevocable   and
unconditional  financial  guaranty  insurance  policy  issued by MBIA  Insurance
Corporation.

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing  on April 25, 2001,  as described in the  Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture Trustee, the Enhancer or the Noteholders of Notes representing not
less than a majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights of the  Notes,  with the
consent of the Enhancer, may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable
in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the Indenture.  All principal payments
on the  Notes  shall  be made  pro rata to the  Noteholders  of  Notes  entitled
thereto.

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date


                                       2

or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in
connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.

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

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2001-HE1  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee  with  the  consent  of  the  Enhancer  and  the  Noteholders  of  Notes
representing  a  majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights of the  Notes  then
Outstanding  and with prior notice to the Rating  Agencies.  The Indenture  also
contains provisions  permitting the Noteholders of Notes representing  specified
percentages of the Voting Rights of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes, on behalf of the
Noteholders of all Series 2001-HE1 Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with
certain  provisions  of the  Indenture  and  certain  past  defaults  under  the
Indenture and their  consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder
of this Note (or any one of more  predecessor  Notes)  shall be  conclusive  and
binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of
any Note issued upon the  registration  of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof
or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
this Note.  The Indenture  also permits the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee to
amend or waive certain terms and conditions  set forth in the Indenture  without
the consent of  Noteholders of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes issued  thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and the Enhancer.

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.


                                       4

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

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.
        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.  in  its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

Trustee  with  the  consent  of  the  Enhancer  and  the  Noteholders  of  Notes
representing  a  majority  of the  aggregate  Voting  Rights of the  Notes  then
Outstanding  and with prior notice to the Rating  Agencies.  The Indenture  also
contains provisions  permitting the Noteholders of Notes representing  specified
percentages of the Voting Rights of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes, on behalf of the
Noteholders of all Series 2001-HE1 Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with
certain  provisions  of the  Indenture  and  certain  past  defaults  under  the
Indenture and their  consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder
of this Note (or any one of more  predecessor  Notes)  shall be  conclusive  and
binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of
any Note issued upon the  registration  of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof
or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
this Note.  The Indenture  also permits the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee to
amend or waive certain terms and conditions  set forth in the Indenture  without
the consent of  Noteholders of the Series  2001-HE1 Notes issued  thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and the Enhancer.

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.

loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
