         recording office, has been lost or is not otherwise available, a copy
         of such Mortgage or power of attorney, as the case may be, certified to

         substance acceptable for recording. The Mortgage shall be assigned
         either (A) in blank or (B) to "U.S. Bank National Association, as
         Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, dated as of December 14, 2001
         between Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust 2001-CB4 and U.S. Bank National

                  (viii) for each VA Loan, the original Loan Guaranty
         Certificate.

         The Indenture Trustee agrees to execute and deliver (or cause the
Custodian to execute and deliver) to the Depositor on or prior to the Closing
Date an acknowledgment of receipt of the original Mortgage Notes (with any
exceptions noted), substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B-3 hereto.

         The Issuer shall cause the Seller or Servicer to, within 90 days
following the Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that is subject

Equity Protection Act of 1994, place a legend on the original Mortgage Note
indicating the satisfaction of the provisions of such Act and the regulations
issued thereunder, to the effect that the Mortgage Loan is subject to special
truth in lending rules.

         The Issuer, at the expense of the Seller, shall promptly (and in no
event later than thirty days following the Closing Date) submit or cause to be
submitted for recording, at the Seller's expense and at no expense to the Trust
Estate or the Indenture Trustee, in the appropriate public office for real
property records, each Assignment referred to in this Section 2.03(iii) and (iv)
above. The Issuer shall furnish the Trustee, or its designated agent, with a
copy of each assignment of Mortgage submitted for recording. In the event that
any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein,
the Issuer shall cause Seller to promptly have a substitute Assignment prepared
or have such defect cured, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such
Assignment to be duly recorded. In the event that any Mortgage Note is endorsed
in blank as of the Closing Date, promptly following the Closing Date the Issuer
shall cause to be completed such endorsements "Pay to the order of U.S. Bank
National Association, as Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, dated as of
December 14, 2001 between Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust 2001-CB4 and U.S. Bank
National Association, C-BASS Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Notes, without
recourse."

         If any of the documents referred to in Section 2.03(ii), (iii) or (iv)
above has as of the Closing Date been submitted for recording but either (x) has
not been returned from the applicable public recording office or (y) has been
lost or such public recording office has retained the original of such document,
the obligations of the Issuer to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be
satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian no later
than the Closing Date, of a copy of each such document certified by the Seller
in the case of (x) above or the applicable public recording office in the case
of (y) above to be a true and complete copy of the original that was submitted
for recording and (2) if such copy is certified by the Seller, delivery to the
Indenture Trustee or the Custodian, promptly upon receipt thereof of either the
original or a copy of such document certified by the applicable public recording
office to be a true and complete copy of the original. The Issuer shall deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian promptly upon
receipt thereof any other documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File
received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any
original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage
Loan.

         Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective
document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File, the Issuer
shall cause the Seller to cure such defect within 120 days or 150 days following
the Closing Date, in the case of missing Mortgages or Assignments or deliver
such missing document to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian. If the Seller
does not cure such defect or deliver such missing document within such time
period, the Issuer shall cause the Seller to either repurchase or substitute for
such Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement.

         Section 2.04      ACCEPTANCE BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         The Indenture Trustee acknowledges the receipt of, subject to the
provisions of Section 2.03 and subject to the review described below and any
exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below,
the documents referred to in Section 2.03 above and all other

<PAGE>



assets included in the definition of "Trust Estate" as set forth in the Granting
Clause of this Indenture (to the extent of amounts deposited into the Payment
Account) and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other
documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that it holds or
will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of
"Trust Estate" in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and
future Noteholders.

         The Indenture Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Noteholders, to
review (or cause the Custodian to review) each Mortgage File within 60 days
after the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage,
within 60 days after the assignment thereof) and to certify in substantially the
form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any
Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as
not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents required to be
delivered to it pursuant Section 2.03 of this Agreement are in its possession,
(ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated,
damaged or torn and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its
examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (1), (2), (3), (5), (13) and
(26) (in the case of (26), only as to whether there is a prepayment penalty) of
the Mortgage Loan Schedule accurately reflects information set forth in the
Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the
Indenture Trustee (or the Custodian, as applicable) is under no duty or
obligation to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or
appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded
or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.

         Prior to the first anniversary date of this Indenture the Indenture
Trustee shall deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the Depositor and
the Servicer a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-2
evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon.

         If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or
preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the
Indenture Trustee (or the Custodian, as applicable) finds any document or
documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in
any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Indenture Trustee
shall so notify the Seller, the Depositor and the Servicer. In addition, upon
the discovery by the Seller, Depositor or the Servicer (or upon receipt by the
Indenture Trustee of written notification of such breach) of a breach of any of
the representations and warranties made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely
affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Noteholders in such
Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties.

         The Indenture Trustee acknowledges the issuance of the uncertificated
REMIC 1 Regular Interests and declares that it holds such regular interests as
assets of REMIC 2. The Indenture Trustee acknowledges the issuance of the
uncertificated REMIC 2 Regular Interests and declares that it holds such regular
interests as assets of REMIC 3. The Indenture Trustee acknowledges the issuance
of the uncertificated Class IT3-X/N Interest, and declares that it holds the
same as an asset


                                        8

of REMIC 4 on behalf of the Holders of the Class IX/N Interest, initially the

         Section 3.01 COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE MORTGAGE LOANS.
The Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain with itself an account (the
"Payment Account") in which the Indenture Trustee shall, subject to the terms of
this paragraph, deposit, on the same day as it is received from the Servicer,
each remittance received by the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Mortgage
Loans. The Indenture Trustee shall make all payments of principal of and
interest on the Notes, subject to Section 3.03, as provided in Section 3.05
herein from monies on deposit in the Payment Account.

         Section 3.02 MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY. The Issuer will maintain
in the City of St. Paul, an office or agency where, subject to satisfaction of
conditions set forth herein, Notes may be surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in
respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer hereby
initially appoints the Indenture Trustee to serve as its agent for the foregoing
purposes. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such office or
agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with the address thereof,
such surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate
Trust Office, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent
to receive all such surrenders, notices and demands.

         Section 3.03 MONEY FOR PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST; PAYING AGENT. (a)
As provided in Section 3.01, all payments of amounts due and payable with
respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment
Account pursuant to Section 3.01 shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the
Indenture Trustee or by the Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the
Payment Account for payments of Notes shall be paid over to the Issuer except as
provided in this Section 3.03. The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other
than the Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee
(and if the Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent it hereby so agrees), subject
to the provisions of this Section 3.03, that such Paying Agent will:

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

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

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



                                       10

<PAGE>



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

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

                  (vi)     not commence a bankruptcy.

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

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

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

         (a) On the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee shall establish and
maintain in its name, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Class IA-1
Notes and the Group I Mezzanine Notes, the Excess Reserve Fund Account. The
Excess Reserve Fund Account shall be an Eligible Account, and funds on deposit
therein shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled with,
any other moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys of the Indenture
Trustee held pursuant to this Indenture.

         (b) On the Closing Date, $5,000 will be deposited by the Indenture
Trustee into the Excess Reserve Fund Account. Thereafter, on any Payment Date if
the Group I Pool Cap does not exceed the Note Rate applicable to the Class IA-1
Notes or the Group I Mezzanine Notes by at least 0.25%, the amount to be held in
the Excess Reserve Fund Account on any Payment Date thereafter will equal the
greater of (i) 0.50% of the outstanding Note Balance of the Class IA-1 Notes and
the Group I Mezzanine Notes as of such Payment Date and (ii) $5,000 and will be
funded from amounts paid pursuant to Section 3.06. Thereafter, if the Group I
Pool Cap for any Payment Date exceeds the Note Rate applicable to the Class IA-1
Notes and the Group I Mezzanine Notes on such Payment Date by 0.25% or more, the
Required Excess Reserve Fund Balance for such Payment Date will be at least
$5,000. The amount required to be on deposit in the Excess Reserve Fund Account
at any time is referred to herein as the "Required Excess Reserve Fund Balance."
In addition to the Required Excess Reserve Fund Balance, the amount on deposit
in the Excess Reserve Fund Account will be increased by any payments received by
the Indenture Trustee under the Cap Contract or the Cap Contract Pledge
Agreement and deposited into the Excess Reserve Fund Account.

         (c) On each Payment Date on which there exists a related LIBOR
Carryover Amount on the Class IA-1 Notes or the Group I Mezzanine Notes, the
Indenture Trustee shall withdraw from the Excess Reserve Fund Account amounts
necessary to pay the related LIBOR Carryover Amount incurred by such Note, until
such amount is reduced to zero.

         (d) Funds in the Excess Reserve Fund Account may be invested in
Permitted Investments by the Indenture Trustee at the direction of the Majority
Noteholders of the Class IX Notes. On each

Class IX Notes and any losses shall be chargeable to amounts held in the Excess
Reserve Fund Account. The Majority Noteholders of the Class IX Notes shall
evidence ownership of the Excess Reserve Fund Account for federal income tax
purposes and shall direct the Indenture Trustee, in writing, as to the
investment of amounts on deposit therein. Upon termination of Loan Group I, any
amounts remaining in the Excess Reserve Fund Account shall be paid to the
Holders of the Class IX Notes. The Excess Reserve Fund Account is not an asset
of any of the REMICs, but rather is an "outside reserve fund" within the meaning
of the REMIC Provisions that is beneficially owned by the beneficial owner of
the Class IX Notes.

that:

                  (i) This Indenture creates a valid and continuing security

               THE NOTES; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

         Section 4.01 THE NOTES. The Notes will be substantially in the forms
annexed hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-15. The Notes of each Class will be
issuable in registered form only, in denominations of authorized Percentage
Interests as described in the definition thereof. Each Note will share ratably
in all rights of the related Class.

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

         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 Note Owners with respect to the Notes for the purposes of
exercising the rights of Noteholders hereunder. The rights of Note Owners with
respect to the Notes shall be limited to those established by law and agreements
between such Note Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms
representing such Note Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes
of, the Depository as Holder of the Notes with respect to any particular matter
shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Note
Owners. The Indenture Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in
connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Noteholders and
shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.

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

         Section 4.02 REGISTRATION OF AND LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE
OF NOTES; APPOINTMENT OF NOTE REGISTRAR.

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

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

         Subject to the foregoing, at the option of the Noteholders, Notes may
be exchanged for other Notes of like tenor, in authorized initial Note Balances
or Notional Amounts, as applicable, evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interests upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at


                                       29

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 Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing with such signature
guaranteed by a commercial bank or trust company located or having a
correspondent located in the City of New York or the city in which the Corporate
Trust Office is located. 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.

         Except with respect to the initial transfer of the Private Notes by the
Depositor, no transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Private Note
shall be made unless such disposition is exempt from the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act, and any applicable state securities laws or is
made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such
transfer, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as
evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D) under the 1933 Act, the
Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall require a written Opinion of Counsel
(which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to
the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Indenture
Trustee or the Issuer or (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall require the transferor
to execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached hereto
as Exhibit F) and the transferee to execute an investment letter (in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D) acceptable to and in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
certifying to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts surrounding such
transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Indenture
Trustee or the Issuer. The Holder of a Private Note that is also a Class R or
Class R-4 Note desiring to effect a transfer of a such Class R or Class R-4 Note
shall not make such transfer to a Non-U.S. Person. The Holder of any Private
Note desiring to effect a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify
the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer against any liability that may result if
the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws.

         No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Note shall be made unless the
Indenture Trustee shall have received a representation from the transferee of
such Note, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture
Trustee and the Issuer, (such requirement is satisfied only by the Indenture
Trustee's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee substantially
in the form of Exhibit C hereto, as appropriate), to the effect that such
transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Section 406
of ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code, nor a person acting on
behalf of any such plan or arrangement nor using the assets of any such plan or
arrangement to effect such transfer. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
such representation shall be deemed to have been made to the Indenture Trustee
by the acceptance by a Note Owner of the beneficial interest in any such Class
of ERISA-Restricted Notes, unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received from
the transferee an alternative representation acceptable in form and substance to
the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee. Notwithstanding anything else to the
contrary herein, any


                                       30

<PAGE>



purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Note to or on behalf of an employee
benefit plan subject to ERISA or to the Code shall be void and of no effect.

         By acquiring an Offered Note, each purchaser will be deemed to
represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the Offered Note with the assets
of a benefit plan; or (2) the acquisition and holding of the Offered Note will
not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA
or Section 4975 of the Code as a result of the Issuer, the Depositor, the
Underwriters, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer, any
Administrator, any provider of credit support, including the Cap Contract
counterparty, any owner of the Certificates, or any of their Affiliates being a
party in interest or disqualified person with respect to such purchaser that is
a benefit plan.

         Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R
or Class R-4 Note shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such
Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to
have irrevocably appointed the Issuer or its designee as its attorney-in-fact to
negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below and to execute
all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection
with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Class R or Class R-4 Note are expressly subject to the following
provisions:

                  (i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in
         a Class R or Class R-4 Note shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall
         promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of any change or impending change
         in its status as a Permitted Transferee.

                  (ii) No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a Class
         R or Class R-4 Note unless such Ownership Interest is a pro rata
         undivided interest.

                  (iii) In connection with any proposed transfer of any
         Ownership Interest in a Class R or Class R-4 Note, the Indenture
         Trustee shall as a condition to registration of the transfer, require
         delivery to it, in form and substance satisfactory to it, of each of
         the following:

                           A. an affidavit in the form of Exhibit E hereto from
                  the proposed transferee to the effect that, among other
                  things, such transferee is a Permitted Transferee and that it
                  is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Class R or
                  Class R-4 Note that is the subject of the proposed transfer as
                  a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not a
                  Permitted Transferee; and

                           B. a covenant of the proposed transferee to the
                  effect that the proposed transferee agrees to be bound by and
                  to abide by the transfer restrictions applicable to the Class
                  R or Class R-4 Notes.

                  (iv) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership
         Interest in a Class R or Class R-4 Note in violation of the provisions
         of this Section shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no
         rights in the purported transferee. If any purported transferee shall,
         in violation of the provisions of this Section, become a Holder of a
         Class R or Class R-4 Note, then the prior Holder of such Class R or
         Class R-4 Note that is a Permitted Transferee


                                       31

<PAGE>



         shall, upon discovery that the registration of transfer of such Class R
         or Class R-4 Note was not in fact permitted by this Section, be
         restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of
         registration of transfer of such Class R or Class R-4 Note. The
         Indenture Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
         registration of transfer of a Class R or Class R-4 Note that is in fact
         not permitted by this Section or for making any payments due on such
         Class R or Class R-4 Note to the Holder thereof or taking any other
         action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this
         Indenture so long as the Indenture Trustee received the documents
         specified in clause (iii). The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to
         recover from any Holder of a Class R or Class R-4 Note that was in fact
         not a Permitted Transferee at the time such distributions were made all
         payments made on such Class R or Class R-4 Note. Any such payments so
         recovered by the Indenture Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the
         Indenture Trustee to the prior Holder of such Class R or Class R-4 Note
         that is a Permitted Transferee.

                  (v) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires
         any Ownership Interest in a Class R or Class R-4 Note in violation of
         the restrictions in this Section, then the Indenture Trustee shall have
         the right but not the obligation, without notice to the Holder of such
         Class R or Class R-4 Note or any other Person having an Ownership
         Interest therein, to notify the Issuer to arrange for the sale of such
         Class R or Class R-4 Note. The proceeds of such sale, net of
         commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Issuer or its
         affiliates in connection with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if
         any, will be remitted by the Indenture Trustee to the previous Holder
         of such Class R or Class R-4 Note that is a Permitted Transferee,
         except that in the event that the Indenture Trustee determines that the
         Holder of such Class R or Class R-4 Note may be liable for any amount
         due under this Section or any other provisions of this Indenture, the
         Indenture Trustee may withhold a corresponding amount from such
         remittance as security for such claim. The terms and conditions of any
         sale under this clause (v) shall be determined in the sole discretion
         of the Indenture Trustee and it shall not be liable to any Person
         having an Ownership Interest in a Class R or Class R-4 Note as a result
         of its exercise of such discretion.

                  (vi) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires
         any Ownership Interest in a Class R or Class R-4 Note in violation of
         the restrictions in this Section, then the Indenture Trustee will
         provide to the Internal Revenue Service, and to the persons specified
         in Sections 860E(e)(3) and (6) of the Code, information needed to
         compute the tax imposed under Section 860E(e)(5) of the Code on
         transfers of residual interests to disqualified organizations. The
         Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for
         providing such information from the person to whom it is provided.

         The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to
transfers occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been
delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee, (i) written notification from each Rating Agency that the
removal of the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section will not cause
such Rating Agency to downgrade its rating of the Notes and (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC hereunder to
fail to qualify as a REMIC.



                                       32

<PAGE>



         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.

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

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

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


                                       33

<PAGE>



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.

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

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

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

         Section 4.06 BOOK-ENTRY NOTES. Each Class of Notes (other than the
Class IX, Class IN, Class R, Class R-4, Class IIX and Class IIN) shall initially
be issued as one or more Notes held by the Book-Entry Custodian or, if appointed
to hold such Notes as provided below, the Depository Trust Company, the initial
Depository, and registered in the name of its nominee Cede & Co. Except as
provided below, registration of such Notes may not be transferred by the
Indenture Trustee except to another Depository that agrees to hold such Notes
for the respective Beneficial Owners. The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially
appointed as the Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in
accordance herewith and in accordance with the agreement that it has with the
Depository authorizing it to act as such. The Book-Entry Custodian may, and, if
it is no longer qualified to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall,
appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Depositor, the Servicer and,
if the Indenture Trustee is not the Book-Entry Custodian, the Indenture Trustee,
any other transfer agent (including the Depository or any successor Depository)
to act as Book-Entry Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor
Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or any successor Depository may
prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian shall not be
relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by reason of any new
appointment, except if the Depository is the successor to the Book-Entry
Custodian. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the
terms hereof, the successor trustee or, if it so elects, the Depository shall
immediately succeed to its predecessor's duties as Book-Entry Custodian. The
Depositor shall


                                       34

<PAGE>



have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies of, any Notes held as Book-Entry
Notes by the Book- Entry Custodian. No Beneficial Owner will receive a
Definitive Note representing such Beneficial Owner's interest in such Note,
except as provided in Section 4.08. Unless and until definitive, fully
registered Notes (the "Definitive Notes") have been issued to Beneficial Owners
pursuant to Section 4.08:

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

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

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

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

                  (v) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be
         taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes
         evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate Note Balance or
         Notional Amount, as applicable, 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 is required under this Indenture, unless and
until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section
4.08, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and communications
specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes to the Depository, and
shall have no obligation to the Note Owners.

         Section 4.08 DEFINITIVE NOTES. If (i) the Indenture Trustee determines
that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities with respect to the Notes and the Indenture Trustee is unable
to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Indenture Trustee elects to terminate
the book-entry system through the Depository or (iii) after the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Note Owners of Notes representing beneficial interests
aggregating at least a majority of the aggregate Note Balance or Notional
Amount, as applicable, of the Notes advise the Depository in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the
best interests of the Note Owners, then the Indenture Trustee shall notify all
Note Owners through the Depository of the occurrence of any such event and of
the availability of Definitive Notes to Note


                                       35

<PAGE>



Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the
typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Book-Entry Custodian
or the Depository, as applicable, accompanied by registration instructions, the
Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive
Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Depository. None of the Issuer,
the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in
delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes
as Noteholders.

         Section 4.09 TAX TREATMENT. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture,
and the Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and
local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will qualify
as indebtedness. For federal income tax purposes, the Group I Notes and the
Class IX/N Interest will be treated as regular interests in a REMIC. The
Indenture Trustee shall make or cause to be made REMIC elections for each of
REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC 3 and REMIC 4 as set forth in Article X on Forms 1066 or
other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year ending
on the last day of the calendar year in which the Notes are issued. 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 (other than the Class IX
Notes and the Class IIX Notes when held separately from the Class IN Notes and
the Class IIN Notes, respectively) for federal, state and local income, single
business and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the related REMIC, in the
case of the Group I Mortgage Loans (except that the Class IN Notes shall be
treated as indebtedness of the Holders of the Class IX Notes when held
separately from the Class IN Notes) and the Issuer in the case of the Group II
Mortgage Loans.

         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 and shall release and deliver the Collateral to or
upon the order of the Issuer, when

                  (A) either

                  (1) the Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other
         than (i) Notes that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and that have
         been replaced or paid as provided in Section 4.03 hereof 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



                                       36

<PAGE>



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

                           a. have become due and payable,

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

                           c. have been declared immediately due and payable
                  pursuant to Section 8.07.

and the Issuer, in the case of a. or b. above, has irrevocably deposited or
caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Indenture Trustee cash or direct
obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United States of America (which
will mature prior to the date such amounts are payable), in trust for such
purpose, in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on
such Notes then outstanding not theretofore delivered to the Indenture Trustee
for cancellation when due on the Final Maturity Date or other final Payment Date
and has delivered to the Indenture Trustee a verification report from a
nationally recognized accounting firm certifying that the amounts deposited with
the Indenture Trustee are sufficient to pay and discharge the entire
indebtedness of such Notes, or, in the case of c. above, the Issuer shall have
complied with all requirements of Section 8.07 hereof;

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

                  (C) the Issuer has delivered to the Indenture Trustee 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

         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

Issuer or Certificate Paying Agent, as designee of the Issuer, as applicable, as
the Indenture Trustee may determine, to the Holders of Notes, of all sums due

herein or required by law.

         Section 4.13 TEMPORARY NOTES. Pending the preparation of any Definitive
Notes, the Issuer may execute and upon its written direction, the Indenture
Trustee may authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary Notes that
are printed, lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced, in
any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of
which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Notes may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

         If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes
to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of the
Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes
upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Indenture
Trustee, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any
one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee
shall authenticate and make 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 within five days after learning of the occurrence any event
which with the giving of notice and the lapse of time would become an Event of
Default under clause (iii) of the definition of "Event of Default" written
notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of its status and what action the
Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

         Section 5.02 ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT. If an
Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the
Indenture Trustee may, and, at the written direction of the Holders of Notes
with a majority of the Voting Rights, shall, 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 (a) 100% of the
aggregate Note Balance then outstanding, (b) the aggregate of any Allocated
Realized Loss Amount (plus accrued interest through the date of acceleration) on
the Notes remaining unpaid immediately prior to such date of acceleration, (c)
accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration and (d) the
aggregate of any Interest Carry Forward Amounts (plus accrued interest through
the date of acceleration) remaining unpaid immediately prior to such date of
acceleration.

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 5.03 COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY
INDENTURE TRUSTEE.


                                       39

<PAGE>




         (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the payment of
any interest (including the Accrued Note Interest) on any Note when the same
becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of five days,
or (ii) default is made in the payment of the principal (including the Group I
Principal Payment Amount or Group II Principal Payment Amount, as applicable,
and the Group I Overcollateralization Increase Amount or the Group II
Overcollateralization Increase Amount, as applicable) 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 the Indenture Trustee, for
the benefit of the Holders of Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on
the Notes for principal and interest, with interest at the Note Accrual Rate
upon the overdue principal, and in addition thereto such further amount as shall
be sufficient to cover the reasonable 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 11.17 hereof may institute a
Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute
such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against
the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes and collect in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, wherever
situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

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

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

                  (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount
         of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and
         to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
         in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any
         claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each


                                       40

<PAGE>



         predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys
         and counsel, and for reimbursement of all reasonable expenses and
         liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee
         and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of
         negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) and of the Noteholders
         allowed in such Proceedings;

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 5.04 REMEDIES; PRIORITIES. (a) If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing and if an acceleration has been declared and not
rescinded pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, the Indenture Trustee may do one or
more of the following (subject to Section 5.05 hereof):

                  (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


                                       41

<PAGE>



         Agreement, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer
         and any other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

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

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

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

provided, however, the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the
Trust Estate following an Event of Default, unless (1) the Holders of 100% of
the then aggregate outstanding Voting Rights consent to such sale, (2) the
proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Holders of the Notes
are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon the
Notes for principal and interest or (3) the Indenture Trustee determines that
the Mortgage 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 Holders of 66 2/3% of the then aggregate outstanding Voting
Rights. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clause
(B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an
opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national
reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the
sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

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

                                       45

<PAGE>



there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes and other obligations of the Issuer, and the Indenture
Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to
take and maintain possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to take
and maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need
not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or
accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed
action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

         Section 5.06 LIMITATION OF SUITS. No Holder of any Note shall have any
right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this
Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless and subject to the provisions of Section 11.17 hereof:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 5.07 UNCONDITIONAL RIGHTS OF NOTEHOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL
AND INTEREST. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder
of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on or
after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this
Indenture and


                                       46

<PAGE>



to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall
not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

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

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

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

         Section 5.11 CONTROL BY NOTEHOLDERS. The Holders of Notes with a
majority of the Voting Rights shall have the right (subject to the provisions of
Section 5.06) to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding
for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that:

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

                  (ii) any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or
         liquidate the Trust Estate shall be at the written direction of the
         Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights as provided in
         Section 5.15;

                  (iii) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 hereof 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 the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to
         sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be of no force and effect.

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

         Section 5.12 WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. Prior to the declaration of the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02 hereof,
the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights may waive any past
Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default (i) with
respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (ii) in
respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended
without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected. In the case of any such
waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no
such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereto.

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

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

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

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


                                                        48

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

                  (a) the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights
consent to or direct the Indenture Trustee to make, such Sale, or

                  (b) the proceeds of such Sale would be not less than the
entire amount which would be payable to the Noteholders under the Notes, in full
payment thereof in accordance with Section 5.02 hereof, on the Payment Date next
succeeding the date of such Sale, or

                  (c) The Indenture Trustee determines that the conditions for
retention of the Trust Estate set forth in Section 5.05 hereof cannot be
satisfied (in making any such determination, the Indenture Trustee may rely upon
an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm obtained and delivered as
provided in Section 5.05 hereof), and the Holders of Notes with a majority of
the Voting Rights consent to such Sale.

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

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

         (iv) In connection with a Sale of all or any portion of the Trust
Estate,

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

                  (b) the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the property
offered for Sale in connection with any Sale thereof, and, subject to any
requirements of, and to the extent permitted by, applicable law in connection
therewith, may purchase all or any portion of the Trust Estate in a private
sale, and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase
price by crediting the gross Sale price against the sum of (A) the amount which
would be payable to the Holders of the Notes and Holders of the Certificates and
(B) the reasonable expenses of the Sale and of any Proceedings in connection
therewith which are reimbursable to it, without being required to produce the
Notes in order to complete any such Sale or in order for the net Sale price to
be credited


                                       49

<PAGE>



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;

                  (c) 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;

                  (d) 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

                  (e) 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 Indenture Trustee to do so, the
Issuer, in its capacity as holder of the Mortgage Loans, shall take all such
lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to cause the Issuer to compel
or secure the performance and observance by the Seller and the Servicer, as
applicable, of each of their obligations to the Issuer under or in connection
with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, and to
exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available
to the Issuer under or in connection with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
and the Servicing Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the
Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Loans, including the transmission
of notices of default on the part of the Seller or the Servicer thereunder and
the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or
secure performance by the Seller or the Servicer of each of their obligations
under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement.

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


                                       50

<PAGE>



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

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

         Section 6.01 DUTIES OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) If an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and
skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

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

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

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

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

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

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

                  (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect
         to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance
         with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 5.11.

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

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

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



                                       52

<PAGE>



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

         (h) The Indenture Trustee shall act in accordance with Sections 6.03
and 6.04 of the Servicing Agreements and shall act as successor to any of the
Servicer in accordance with Section 6.02 of the related Servicing Agreement.

         (i) For all purposes under this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall
not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default
unless a Responsible Officer assigned to and working in the Indenture Trustee's
corporate trust department has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice
of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default or Default is received by
the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references
the Notes generally, the Issuer, the Trust Estate or this Indenture.

         The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to execute and shall execute
the Servicing Agreement and shall perform its duties and satisfy its obligations
thereunder. Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee
shall apply to the Indenture Trustee's execution of the Servicing Agreements and
the performance of its duties and satisfaction of its obligations thereunder.

         The Issuer hereby instructs the Indenture Trustee to enter into the Cap
Contract and the Cap Contract Pledge Agreement and shall perform its duties and
satisfy its obligations thereunder. Every provision of this Indenture relating
to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the
Indenture Trustee shall apply to the Indenture Trustee's execution of the Cap
Contract and the Cap Contract Pledge Agreement, and the performance of its
duties and satisfaction of its obligations thereunder.

         Section 6.02      RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

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

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

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



                                       53

<PAGE>



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

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

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

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

         Section 6.05 NOTICE OF EVENT OF DEFAULT. If an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Noteholders. The
Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of the Event of Default
within 10 days after a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual
knowledge thereof unless such Event of Default shall have been waived or cured.
Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest
on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a
committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding
the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

         Section 6.06 RESERVED.

         Section 6.07 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY. The Indenture Trustee shall
withdraw from the Payment Account and pay the following amounts without
priority: (i) on each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee Fee to itself, (ii) on
each Payment Date, the fee payable to the PMI Insurer and (iii) on each Payment
Date in November, the fee payable to the Owner Trustee. The Indenture Trustee's
compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an
express trust. In addition, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw from the
Payment Account to reimburse the Owner Trustee for all reasonable out-of pocket
expenses incurred or made by it for all services rendered by it in its execution
of the trust created under the Trust Agreement and in the exercise and
performance of any of its powers and duties under the Trust Agreement (including
rights to indemnification) and shall reimburse itself for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection.
Such expenses shall include reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and
experts. The Issuer shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee against any and all
loss, liability or expense


                                       54

<PAGE>



(including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the
administration of this Trust Estate and the performance of its duties hereunder.
The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it
may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer
shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall
defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and
the Issuer shall pay the reasonable 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. It is understood by
the parties hereto that a "claim" as used in this paragraph includes any claim
for indemnification made by the Custodian under the Custodial Agreement.

         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
with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

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

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

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

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

                  (iv) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of
         acting.

         If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists
in the office of the Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in
such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the
Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. In addition, the
Indenture Trustee will resign to avoid being directly or indirectly controlled
by the Issuer.

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


                                       55

<PAGE>



(other than any Mortgage Files at the time held by the Custodian, which shall
become the agent of any successor indenture trustee hereunder).

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 6.10 APPOINTMENT OF CO-INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE INDENTURE
TRUSTEE. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture
Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to
appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate
trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, 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 hereof, and, subject to
the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights

         (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 Indenture 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
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. If at
any time the Indenture


                                       57

<PAGE>



Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified
in Section 6.08 hereof.

         Section 6.12 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST ISSUER. The
Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA ss. 311(a), excluding any creditor

been removed shall be subject to TIA ss. 311(a) to the extent indicated.

hereby represents that:

         with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or
         constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under,
         the articles of organization or bylaws of the Indenture Trustee or any
         agreement or other instrument to which the Indenture Trustee is a party
         or by which it is bound.

                  (iv) To the Indenture Trustee's best knowledge, there are no
         proceedings or investigations pending or threatened before any court,
         regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental
         instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Indenture Trustee or its
         properties: (A) asserting the invalidity of this Indenture (B) seeking
         to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by

         Trustee of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of,
         this Indenture.

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

         Section 6.14 DIRECTIONS TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE. The Indenture Trustee is
hereby directed:

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

         (b) to authenticate and deliver the Notes substantially in the form
prescribed by Exhibits A-1 through A-15 in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture;

Agreement.

         Section 6.15 INDENTURE TRUSTEE MAY OWN NOTES. The Indenture Trustee, in
its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes
with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee.

         Section 6.16 THE AGENTS. The provisions of this Indenture relating to
the limitations of the Indenture Trustee's liability and to its indemnity shall
inure also to the Paying Agent, the Note Registrar, the Certificate Paying Agent
and the Certificate Registrar.

the consent of the Issuer, appoint the Custodian to hold all or a portion of the
Mortgage Files as agent for the Indenture Trustee, by entering into the
Custodial Agreement. The appointment of the Custodian may at any time be
terminated and a substitute Custodian appointed therefor upon the reasonable
request of the Servicer to the Indenture Trustee, the consent to which shall not
be unreasonably withheld. The Indenture Trustee initially appoints The Bank of
New York as Custodian, and the Issuer consents to such appointment. Subject to
Article VI hereof, the Indenture Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of the
Custodial Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the
Custodian for the benefit of the Noteholders having an interest in any Mortgage
File held by the Custodian. The Custodian shall be a depository institution or
trust company subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have
combined capital and surplus of at least $10,000,000 and shall be qualified to
do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. The
Custodial Agreement may be amended only as provided in the Custodial Agreement.
In no event shall the appointment of the Custodian pursuant to the Custodial
Agreement diminish the obligations of the Indenture Trustee hereunder.

or receivable by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture. The Indenture
Trustee shall apply all such money received by it as provided in this Indenture.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, if any default occurs
in the making of any payment or performance under any agreement or instrument
that is part of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may take such action as
may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the
institution and prosecution of appropriate Proceedings. Any such action shall be
without prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this
Indenture and any right to proceed thereafter as provided in Article V.

         Section 8.02 TRUST ACCOUNTS. (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the
Issuer shall cause the Indenture Trustee to establish and maintain, in the name
of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Certificate
Paying Agent, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Payment Account as
provided in Section 3.01 of this Indenture.

         (b) All monies deposited from time to time in the Payment Account
pursuant to the Servicing Agreement and all deposits therein pursuant to this
Indenture are for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Certificate Paying
Agent, on behalf 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 Indenture Trustee.

         On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay all amounts on
deposit in the Payment Account to Noteholders in respect of the Notes and in its
capacity as Certificate Paying Agent to Certificateholders in the order of
priority set forth in Section 3.05 (except as otherwise provided in Section
5.04(b)).

         The Indenture Trustee may invest any funds in the Payment Account in
Permitted Investments, in its discretion, maturing no later than the Business
Day preceding each Payment Date (provided, however, that with respect to
Permitted Investments that consist of obligations of the Indenture Trustee or
its Affiliates, such Permitted Investments may mature on the related Payment
Date) and such Permitted Investments shall not be sold or disposed of prior to
their maturity. All income or other gain from such investments may be released
from the Payment Account and paid to the Indenture Trustee from time to time as
part of its compensation for acting as Indenture Trustee.

         Section 8.03 OFFICER'S CERTIFICATE. The Indenture Trustee shall receive
at least seven days notice when requested by the Issuer to take any action
pursuant to Section 8.05(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments to be
executed, and the Indenture Trustee shall also require, as a condition to such
action, an Officer's Certificate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Indenture Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining
the steps required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions
precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with.

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

                  (viii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this
         Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the
         qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar
         federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such
         other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA; PROVIDED,
         HOWEVER, that no such indenture supplements shall be entered into
         unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel
         that entering into such indenture supplement will not have any material
         adverse tax consequences to the Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee is
         hereby authorized to


                                       68

<PAGE>



         join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make
         any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein
         contained.

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

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

         Section 9.02 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITH CONSENT OF NOTEHOLDERS. The
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Request, also
may, with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and with the prior consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes
affected thereby by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for
the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the
Holder of each Note affected thereby:

                  (i) change the date of payment of any installment of principal
         of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof or
         the interest rate thereon, change the provisions of this Indenture
         relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the
         Sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the
         Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in
         which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right
         to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this


                                       69

<PAGE>



         Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as
         provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the
         Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee
shall mail to the Holders of the Notes and the Custodian to which such amendment
or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting forth


                                       70

<PAGE>



in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of
the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not,
however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental
indenture.

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

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

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

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

                              REMIC ADMINISTRATION

         Section 10.01 INDENTURE TRUSTEE TO ADMINISTER REMICs.

         (a) The Indenture Trustee shall make or cause to be made REMIC
elections for each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC 3 and REMIC 4 as set forth in this
Indenture and the Appendix on Forms 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or
information return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar
year in which the Group I Notes are issued. The regular interests and residual
interest in each REMIC shall be as designated in Section 10.04.

         (b) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "Startup Day" of each
REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

         (c) The Servicer shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not
including taxes) of each REMIC, including, but not limited to, any professional
fees or expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings
with respect to such REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state
tax authorities, but only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or
routine expenses, including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of
litigation (except as described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities
(including taxes and penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful
misconduct of the Servicer in fulfilling its duties hereunder. The Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses to the extent provided in clause
(i) above from the Collection Account.

         (d) The Indenture Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared, sign
and file or cause to be filed, each REMIC's federal and state tax and
information returns as such REMIC's direct representative. The expenses of
preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Indenture Trustee.

         (e) The Holder of the Class R Notes holding the largest Percentage
Interest shall be the "tax matters person" as defined in the REMIC Provisions
(the "Tax Matters Person") with respect to each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2 and REMIC 3.
The Holder of the Class R-4 Notes holding the largest Percentage Interest shall
be the Tax Matters Person with respect to REMIC 4. The Indenture Trustee is

Matters Person, shall perform, on behalf of each REMIC, all reporting and other
tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of such REMIC under the Code,
the REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal
Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority. Among its other duties,
if required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other such guidance, the
Indenture Trustee, as agent for the Tax Matters Person, shall provide (i) to the
Treasury or other governmental authority such information as is necessary for
the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Residual Note to any
disqualified person or organization and (ii) to the Noteholders such information
or reports as are required by the Code or REMIC Provisions.

         (f) The Indenture Trustee, the Servicer, and the Holders of Notes shall
take any action or cause any REMIC to take any action necessary to create or
maintain the status of such REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and
shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain such status. Neither
the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer, nor the Holder of any Residual Note shall
take any action or cause any REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail
to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or
not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of such REMIC as a
REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon such REMIC (including, but
not limited to, the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section
860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions set forth on Section 860G(d)
of the Code) (either such event, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless the Indenture
Trustee and the Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of
the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated
action will not endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax.
In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any REMIC or the assets
therein, or causing such REMIC to take any action, which is not expressly
permitted under the terms of this Agreement, any Holder of a Residual Note will
consult with the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer, or their respective
designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to such REMIC, and no such Person
shall take any such action or cause such REMIC to take any such action as to
which the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer has advised it in writing that an
Adverse REMIC Event could occur.

         (g) Each Holder of a Residual Note shall pay when due its PRO RATA
share of any and all taxes imposed on any REMIC by federal or state governmental
authorities. To the extent that such REMIC taxes are not paid by Residual
Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of
current or future amounts otherwise payable to the Holder of the Residual Note
in each REMIC or, if no such amounts are available, out of other amounts held in
the Collection Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise payable to Holders of
the REMIC Regular Interests or the Notes, as the case may be.

         (h) The Indenture Trustee, shall, for federal income tax purposes,
maintain or cause to be maintained books and records with respect to each REMIC
on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.

         (i) No additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC,
except as expressly provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with
respect to Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans.

         (j) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Servicer shall enter into any
arrangement by which any REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for
services.

         (k) On or before April 15th of each calendar year beginning in 2002,
the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency an
Officer's Certificate stating the Servicer's compliance with the provisions of
this Section 10.01.

         (l) The Indenture Trustee shall treat the Excess Reserve Fund Account
as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.860G-2(h) that is owned by the Class IX Noteteholders and that is not an asset
of any REMIC. The Indenture Trustee shall treat the


                                       73

<PAGE>



rights of the Offered Notes to receive payments from the Excess Reserve Fund
Account in respect of LIBOR Carryover Amounts as a right in interest rate cap
contracts written by the Class IX and Class IN Noteholders, as beneficial equity
owners of the Class IX/N Interest, in favor of the Offered Noteholders, and the
Indenture Trustee shall account for such as property held separate and apart
from the regular interests it holds in the REMICs created hereunder. This
provision is intended to satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section
1.860G-2(i) for the treatment of property rights coupled with regular interests
to be separately respected and shall be interpreted consistent with such
regulation. On each Payment Date, to the extent the Class IA-1 Notes or Group I
Mezzanine Notes receive interest in excess of the Group I Pool Cap, such
interest will be treated as distributed to the Class IX/N Interest, pro rata,
and then paid to the Excess Reserve Fund Account and then paid to the Offered
Notes, respectively, pursuant to the related interest rate cap agreement.

         Section 10.02 PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS AND ACTIVITIES.

         Neither the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer nor the Indenture
Trustee shall sell, dispose of, or substitute for any of the Group I Mortgage
Loans, except in a disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure of a Group I
Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Estate, (iii) the termination of
any REMIC pursuant to Article X of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant
to the Servicing Agreement or (v) a repurchase of Group I Mortgage Loans
pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, nor acquire any assets for any REMIC, nor
sell or dispose of any investments in the Payment Account for gain, nor accept
any contributions to any REMIC after the Closing Date, unless it has received an
Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party causing such sale, disposition,
or substitution) that such disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance
will not (a) affect adversely the status of such REMIC as a REMIC or of the
interests therein other than the Residual Notes as the regular interests
therein, (b) affect the payment of interest or principal on the Notes, (c)
result in the encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust
Estate (except pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause such
REMIC to be subject to a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited
contributions pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

         Section 10.03 INDEMNIFICATION WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN TAXES AND LOSS OF
REMIC STATUS.

         In the event that any REMIC formed hereunder fails to qualify as a
REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a
result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC
Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and
obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Holder of the
related Residual Note against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses ("Losses") resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that
the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action
or inaction of the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor or the Holder of such
Residual Note, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from
misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Note on which the
Servicer has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the
rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Note now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no
event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that
is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or
which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses
other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties
and


                                       74

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 or stating the opinion of each person signing such
certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such deposit) to the Issuer
of the Collateral or other property or securities to be so deposited.

                  (ii) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the
Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of
any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (i) above, the Issuer
shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the
same matters, if the fair value to the Issuer of the securities to be so
deposited and of all other such securities made the basis of any such withdrawal
or release since the commencement of the then-current fiscal year of the Issuer,
as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and this
clause (ii), is 10% or more of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, but such
a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any securities so deposited,

                                       79

<PAGE>



to the Issuer as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less than
$25,000 or less than one percent of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes.

                  (iii) Whenever any property or securities are to be released
from the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each
person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such
release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating that
in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the security
under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.

                  (iv) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the
Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of
any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (iii) above, the Issuer
shall 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 required by clause
(iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or more of the aggregate Note
Balance of the Notes, but such certificate need not be furnished in the case of
any release of property or securities if the fair value thereof as set forth in
the related Officer's Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent
of the then aggregate Note Balance of the Notes.

                  (v) Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture, the
Issuer may, without compliance with the requirements of the other provisions of
this Section 10.01, (A) collect, sell or otherwise dispose of the Mortgage Loans
as and to the extent permitted or required by the Basic Documents or (B) make
cash payments out of the Payment Account as and to the extent permitted or
required by the Basic Documents, so long as the Issuer shall deliver to the
Indenture Trustee every six months, commencing January 31, 2002, an Officer's
Certificate of the Issuer stating that all the dispositions of Collateral
described in clauses (A) or (B) above that occurred during the preceding six
calendar months were in the ordinary course of the Issuer's business and that
the proceeds thereof were applied in accordance with the Basic Documents.

         Section 11.02 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
the Seller or the Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such
factual matters is in the possession of the Seller or the Issuer, unless, in the
case of an Opinion of Counsel,


                                       80

<PAGE>



such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous.

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

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

         Section 11.03 ACTS OF NOTEHOLDERS. (a) Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by
this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and
evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by
such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as
herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such
instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it
is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred
to as the "Act" of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof
of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent
shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section
6.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in
the manner provided in this Section 10.03.

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

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

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

         Section 11.04 NOTICES, ETC., TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE, ISSUER AND RATING
AGENCIES. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture
shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or
furnished to or filed with:



                                       81

<PAGE>



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

                  (ii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder
         shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and
         mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: Salomon
         Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, in care of Wilmington Trust
         Company at the Corporate Trust Office for the Owner Trustee, or at any
         other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee
         by the Issuer. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received
         by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

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

         Section 11.05 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.



                                       82

<PAGE>



         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 11.06 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 Holder of a Note providing for a method of
payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee to such Holder, that is different
from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices.
The Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement
and the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made and notices to be
given in accordance with such agreements.

         Section 11.07 CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. If any provision
hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is
required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act, such required provision shall control. The provisions of TIA
ss.ss. 310 through 317 that impose duties on any Person (including the
provisions automatically deemed included herein unless expressly excluded by
this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture, whether or not
physically contained herein.

         Section 11.08 EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Article and Section headings
herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

         Section 11.09 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and agreements in
this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and
assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

         Section 11.10 SEPARABILITY. In case any provision in this Indenture or
in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality,
and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.

         Section 11.11 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, 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.

         Section 11.12 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.

         Section 11.13 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS
CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS,


                                       83

<PAGE>



RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH SUCH LAWS.

         Section 11.14 COUNTERPARTS. This Indenture may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.

         Section 11.15 RECORDING OF INDENTURE. If this Indenture is subject to
recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be
effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel
(which may be counsel to the Indenture Trustee or any other counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that such recording is
necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person
secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the
Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

         Section 11.16 ISSUER OBLIGATION. No recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or
the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or
other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (i) the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, (ii) any
owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner,
beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of the Indenture
Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any holder of a
beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or
of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it
being understood that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such
obligations in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner,
owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable
law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or
failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of
this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer
hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits
of, the terms and provisions of Article VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement.

         Section 11.17 NO PETITION. The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this
Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenant and agree
that they will not at any time institute against the Depositor or the Issuer, or
join in any institution against the Depositor or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other
proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law
in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any
of the Basic Documents.

         Section 11.18 INSPECTION. The Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior
notice, it shall permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee, during the
Issuer's normal business hours, to examine all the books of account, records,
reports and other papers of the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom,
to cause such books to be audited by Independent certified public accountants,
and to discuss the Issuer's affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuer's
officers, employees, and Independent certified public accountants, all at such
reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested. The Indenture
Trustee shall and shall cause its representatives to hold in confidence all such
information except to the extent disclosure may be required by law (and all
reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to
the extent that the


                                       84

<PAGE>



Indenture Trustee may reasonably determine that such disclosure is consistent
with its obligations hereunder.



                                       85

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee have caused

representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes
may declare the Note Balance of all the notes to be due and payable immediately.

                  Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Payment Date, to the extent not in full payment of this Note, shall be made, if
such Holder holds Notes of an aggregate initial Notional Amount, of at least
$1,000,000, by wire transfer to an account specified in writing by such Holder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or in all other cases or if no such instructions have been delivered to the
Indenture Trustee, by check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such
Holder's address as it appears in the Note Register.

                  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.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Seller, the 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

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

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not at any time institute against the
Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer, or join in any institution
against the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer of, any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings

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

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

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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of holders of the Notes issued thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

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

Note or of the Indenture

shall alter or impair, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay the interest on this Note at the times, place and rate,
and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

expressly provided in the Basic Documents, none of Wilmington Trust Company in
its individual capacity, U.S. Bank National Association, 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 interest on this Note or performance of, or
omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications
contained in the Indenture. The holder 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, the holder shall have no claim against
any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; PROVIDED,

and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities,
obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

CUSIP No.12489 WD Y7                         Note Rate: Variable

                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, 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 registered assigns, the principal sum of $228,959,000.00, payable on
each Payment Date in an amount equal to the Percentage Interest specified above
of the aggregate amount, if any, payable from the Payment Account in respect of
principal on the Class IA-1 Notes pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture
dated as of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer, as Issuer,
and U.S. Bank National Association, 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 November 2033, to the
extent not previously paid on a prior Payment Date. Capitalized terms used but
not defined herein are defined in Appendix A of the Indenture.

                  Interest on the Class IA-1 Notes will be paid monthly on each

IA-1 Notes (i) on or prior to the Optional Redemption Date for the Group I
Mortgage Loans is 0.450% per annum and (ii) following the Optional Redemption
Date for the Group I Mortgage Loans is 0.900% per annum. Interest on this Class
IA-1 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 Accrual Period and a
year assumed to consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Class
IA-1 Note shall be paid in the manner specified in the Indenture.

                  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

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

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

than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes may declare the Note
Balance of all the notes to be due and payable immediately. All principal
payments on the Notes shall be made PRO RATA to the holders of Notes entitled
thereto.

                  Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Payment Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent
not in full payment of this Note, shall be made, if such Holder holds Notes of
an aggregate initial Note Balance, of at least $1,000,000, by wire transfer to
an account specified in writing by such Holder reasonably satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date or in all other cases or if no
such instructions have been delivered to the Indenture Trustee, by check or
money order to such Noteholder mailed to such Holder's address as it appears in
the Note Register. 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 holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not 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 Holder 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

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.

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

overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.

CUSIP No.12489 WD Z4                         Note Rate: Variable

                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, a business trust

referred to as the "Issuer"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede
& Co. or registered assigns, the principal sum of $10,176,000.00, payable on
each Payment Date in an amount equal to the Percentage Interest specified above
of the aggregate amount, if any, payable from the Payment Account in respect of
principal on the IM-1 Notes pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture dated as
of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer, as Issuer, and U.S.
Bank National Association, 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 November 2033, to the extent not

Note.

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

Issuer, designated as its



<PAGE>



C-Bass Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Notes (herein called the "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 holders of
the Notes. The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

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

                  Principal of and interest on this Note will be payable on each
Payment Date, commencing on December 26, 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 Business Day.

                  The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due
and payable in full on the Payment Date in November 2033 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, the Indenture Trustee or the holders of Notes representing not less
than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes may declare the Note
Balance of all the notes to be due and payable immediately. All principal
payments on the Notes shall be made PRO RATA to the holders of Notes entitled
thereto.

                  Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Payment Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent
not in full payment of this Note, shall be made, if such Holder holds Notes of
an aggregate initial Note Balance, of at least $1,000,000, by wire transfer to
an account specified in writing by such Holder reasonably satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date or in all other cases or if no
such instructions have been delivered to the Indenture Trustee, by check or
money order to such Noteholder mailed to such Holder's address as it appears in
the Note Register. 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 holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not 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 Holder 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.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no



<PAGE>



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

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer



<PAGE>



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 holders of the Notes issued
thereunder but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

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

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

                  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as
expressly provided in the Basic Documents, none of Wilmington Trust Company in
its individual capacity, U.S. Bank National Association, in its individual
capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their
respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or
performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder 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, the holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing contained herein shall be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for
any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture
or in this Note.

Trustee, the Seller, 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 holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not at any time institute against the
Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer, or join in any institution

bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings
under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection
with any obligations relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the Basic
Documents.

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the

Indenture) 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 as therein

obligations of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is

made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the
Indenture without the consent of holders of the Notes issued thereunder but with
prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

provisions and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder and
thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

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, U.S. Bank National Association, in its individual
capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their
respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or
performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder 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, the holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or

                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, 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 registered assigns, the principal sum of $5,088,000.00, payable on each
Payment Date in an amount equal to the Percentage Interest specified above of
the aggregate amount, if any, payable from the Payment Account in respect of
principal on the IB-1 Notes pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture dated as
of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer, as Issuer, and U.S.
Bank National Association, 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 November 2033, to the extent not

Date for the Group I Mortgage Loans is 3.375% per annum. Interest on this IB-1
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 Accrual Period and a
year assumed to consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this IB-1 Note

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.

Issuer, designated as its C-Bass Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Notes (herein called
the "Notes"), all issued under 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

than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes may declare the Note
Balance of all the notes to be due and payable immediately. All principal
payments on the Notes shall be made PRO RATA to the holders of Notes entitled
thereto.

                  Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Payment Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent
not in full payment of this Note, shall be made, if such Holder holds Notes of
an aggregate initial Note Balance, of at least $1,000,000, by wire transfer to
an account specified in writing by such Holder reasonably satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date or in all other cases or if no
such instructions have been delivered to the Indenture Trustee, by check or
money order to such Noteholder mailed to such Holder's address as it appears in
the Note Register. 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 holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as

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

No. 1

                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, 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
Credit-Based Asset Servicing and Securitization LLC or registered assigns, on
each Payment Date all amount owed this Class IX Note pursuant to Section 3.05 of
the Indenture dated as of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the

the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts.

                  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

made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such
transfer, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as
evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in
substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) under the 1933
Act, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall require a written Opinion of
Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to
the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Indenture
Trustee or the Issuer or (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall require the transferor
to execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached as
Exhibit F to the Indenture) and the transferee to execute an investment letter
(in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) acceptable to
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee certifying to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts
surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of
the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer. The Holder of this Note desiring to effect
a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Note or any interest herein to a Plan
subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting directly or
indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using Plan Assets to
acquire this Note shall be made except in accordance with Section 4.02 of the
Indenture.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Seller, the 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 holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not at any time institute against the
Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer, or join in any institution
against the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer of, any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,



<PAGE>



insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or state
bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the
Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of holders of the Notes issued thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

                  This Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law
provisions and the obligations, rights and



<PAGE>



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 make payments 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, U.S. Bank National Association, 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 payments on this Note or performance of, or omission to
perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the
Indenture. The holder 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, the holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing
for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

the benefits of the Indenture that such holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note
will not at any time institute against the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer,
or the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Depositor, the Seller, the
Servicer, or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or state
bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the
Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

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

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

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 as therein

obligations of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of holders of the Notes issued thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, 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 CMI
Investors 2, L.P. or registered assigns, on each Payment Date all amount owed
this Class R Note pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture dated as of December

Association, as Indenture Trustee (the "Indenture Trustee"). Capitalized terms
used but not defined herein are defined in Appendix A of the Indenture.

                  Payments 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.

                  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 C-Bass Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Notes (herein called
the "Notes"), all issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and all

respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee and the holders of the Notes. The Notes are subject to all terms of the

collateral pledged as security therefor as provided 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 Business Day.

requirements of the 1933 Act, and any applicable state securities laws or is
made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such
transfer, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as
evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in
substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) under the 1933
Act, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall require a written Opinion of
Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to
the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Indenture
Trustee or the Issuer or (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall require the transferor
to execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached as
Exhibit F to the Indenture) and the transferee to execute an investment letter
(in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) acceptable to
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee certifying to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts
surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of
the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer. The Holder of this Note desiring to effect
a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Note or any interest herein to a Plan
subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting directly or
indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using Plan Assets to
acquire this Note shall be made except in accordance with Section 4.02 of the
Indenture.

                   Each Holder of this Note will be deemed to have agreed to be
bound by the restrictions of the Indenture, including but not limited to the
restrictions that (i) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in
this Note must be a Permitted Transferee, (ii) no Ownership Interest in this
Note may be transferred without delivery to the Indenture Trustee of (a) a

the transferor, each of such documents to be in the form described in the
Indenture, (iii) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this
Note must agree to require a transfer affidavit and to deliver a transfer
certificate to the Indenture Trustee as required pursuant to the Indenture, (iv)

not to transfer an Ownership Interest in this Note if it has actual knowledge
that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and (v) any attempted
or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Note in violation of
such restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in
the purported transferee. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee will
provide the Internal Revenue Service and any pertinent persons with the
information needed to compute the tax imposed under the applicable tax laws on
transfers of residual interests to disqualified organizations, if any person
other than a Permitted Transferee acquires an Ownership Interest on a Class R
Note in violation of the restrictions mentioned above.

No. 2                                                Note Rate: Variable


                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, 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
Residual Interest Investments, LP or registered assigns, on each Payment Date
all amount owed this Class R Note pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture
dated as of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer, as Issuer,
and U.S. Bank National Association, as Indenture Trustee (the "Indenture
Trustee"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are defined in Appendix
A of the Indenture.

                  Payments 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.

                  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 C-Bass Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Notes (herein called
the "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 holders of the Notes. The Notes are subject to all terms of the
Indenture.

                  The Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by the
collateral pledged as security therefor as provided 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 Business Day.

                  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Indenture Trustee or the holders of Notes representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes may declare the Note Balance
of all the notes to be due and payable immediately.

                  Payments on this Note due and payable on each Payment Date, to
the extent not in full payment of this Note, shall be made, if such Holder holds
Notes of an aggregate initial Note Balance, of at least $1,000,000, by wire
transfer to an account specified in writing by such Holder reasonably
satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date or in all
other cases or if no such instructions have been delivered to the Indenture
Trustee, by check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such Holder's
address as it appears in the Note Register.



<PAGE>



                  No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of this Note
shall be made unless such disposition is exempt from the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act, and any applicable state securities laws or is
made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such
transfer, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as
evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in
substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) under the 1933
Act, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall require a written Opinion of
Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to
the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Indenture
Trustee or the Issuer or (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall require the transferor
to execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached as
Exhibit F to the Indenture) and the transferee to execute an investment letter
(in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) acceptable to
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee certifying to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts
surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of
the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer. The Holder of this Note desiring to effect
a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Note or any interest herein to a Plan
subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting directly or
indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using Plan Assets to
acquire this Note shall be made except in accordance with Section 4.02 of the
Indenture.

                   Each Holder of this Note will be deemed to have agreed to be
bound by the restrictions of the Indenture, including but not limited to the
restrictions that (i) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in
this Note must be a Permitted Transferee, (ii) no Ownership Interest in this
Note may be transferred without delivery to the Indenture Trustee of (a) a
transfer affidavit of the proposed transferee and (b) a transfer certificate of
the transferor, each of such documents to be in the form described in the
Indenture, (iii) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this
Note must agree to require a transfer affidavit and to deliver a transfer
certificate to the Indenture Trustee as required pursuant to the Indenture, (iv)
each person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in this Note must agree
not to transfer an Ownership Interest in this Note if it has actual knowledge
that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and (v) any attempted
or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Note in violation of
such restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in
the purported transferee. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee will
provide the Internal Revenue Service and any pertinent persons with the
information needed to compute the tax imposed under the applicable tax laws on
transfers of residual interests to disqualified organizations, if any person
other than a Permitted Transferee acquires an Ownership Interest on a Class R
Note in violation of the restrictions mentioned above.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no



<PAGE>



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

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is



<PAGE>



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 holders of the Notes issued thereunder but with
prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

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

                  No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair, the obligation of the Issuer,
which is absolute and unconditional, to make payments 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, U.S. Bank National Association, 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 payments on this Note or performance of, or omission to
perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the
Indenture. The holder 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, the holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing
for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

requirements of the 1933 Act, and any applicable state securities laws or is

the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer. The Holder of this Note desiring to effect
a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Note or any interest herein to a Plan
subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting directly or
indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using Plan Assets to
acquire this Note shall be made except in accordance with Section 4.02 of the

                   Each Holder of this Note will be deemed to have agreed to be
bound by the restrictions of the Indenture, including but not limited to the
restrictions that (i) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in
this Note must be a Permitted Transferee, (ii) no Ownership Interest in this
Note may be transferred without delivery to the Indenture Trustee of (a) a

Note must agree to require a transfer affidavit and to deliver a transfer
certificate to the Indenture Trustee as required pursuant to the Indenture, (iv)

that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and (v) any attempted
or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Note in violation of
such restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in
the purported transferee. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee will
provide the Internal Revenue Service and any pertinent persons with the
information needed to compute the tax imposed under the applicable tax laws on
transfers of residual interests to disqualified organizations, if any person
other than a Permitted Transferee acquires an Ownership Interest on a Class R-4
Note in violation of the restrictions mentioned above.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no



<PAGE>



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

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is



<PAGE>



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 holders of the Notes issued thereunder but with
prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

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

                  No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair, the obligation of the Issuer,
which is absolute and unconditional, to make payments 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, U.S. Bank National Association, 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 payments on this Note or performance of, or omission to
perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the
Indenture. The holder 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, the holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing
for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Payment Date
shall be binding upon all future holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu

indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Seller, 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,

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

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

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not at any time institute against the

Class IIM-1                                  Principal Amount: $1,882,000.00

No. 1                                        Percentage Interest: 100.00%

CUSIP No.12489 WE D2                         Note Rate: Variable

                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, 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 registered assigns, the principal sum of $1,882,000.00, payable on each
Payment Date in an amount equal to the Percentage Interest specified above of
the aggregate amount, if any, payable from the Payment Account in respect of
principal on the IIM-1 Notes pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture dated as
of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer, as Issuer, and U.S.
Bank National Association, 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 November 2033, to the extent not
previously paid on a prior Payment Date. Capitalized terms used but not defined
herein are defined in Appendix A of the Indenture.

                  Interest on the IIM-1 Notes will be paid monthly on each
Payment Date at the Note Rate for the related Interest Accrual Period. For each
Payment Date, the Note Rate for the Class IIM-1 Notes is the least of (i) LIBOR
as of the related LIBOR Determination Date, plus the Class IIM-1 Note Margin,
(ii) the Group II Pool Cap or (iii) the Maximum Note Rate. For each Payment
Date, the Note Margin for the Class IIM-1 Notes (i) on or prior to the Optional
Redemption Date for the Group II Mortgage Loans is 1.250% per annum and (ii)
following the Optional Redemption Date for the Group II Mortgage Loans is 1.875%
per annum. Interest on this IIM-1 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 Accrual Period and a year assumed to consist of 360 days. Principal of
and interest on this IIM-1 Note shall be paid in the manner specified in the
Indenture.

                  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 C-Bass Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Notes (herein called
the "Notes"), all issued under the



<PAGE>



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 holders of the Notes.
The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

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

                  Principal of and interest on this Note will be payable on each
Payment Date, commencing on December 26, 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 Business Day.

                  The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due
and payable in full on the Payment Date in November 2033 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, the Indenture Trustee or the holders of Notes representing not less
than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes may declare the Note
Balance of all the notes to be due and payable immediately. All principal
payments on the Notes shall be made PRO RATA to the holders of Notes entitled
thereto.

                  Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Payment Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent
not in full payment of this Note, shall be made, if such Holder holds Notes of
an aggregate initial Note Balance, of at least $1,000,000, by wire transfer to
an account specified in writing by such Holder reasonably satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date or in all other cases or if no
such instructions have been delivered to the Indenture Trustee, by check or
money order to such Noteholder mailed to such Holder's address as it appears in
the Note Register. 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 holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not 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 Holder 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.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or
under the



<PAGE>



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

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of holders of the



<PAGE>



Notes issued thereunder but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

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

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

                  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as
expressly provided in the Basic Documents, none of Wilmington Trust Company in
its individual capacity, U.S. Bank National Association, in its individual
capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their
respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or
performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder 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, the holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing contained herein shall be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for

of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer, as Issuer, and U.S.
Bank National Association, 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 November 2033, to the extent not
previously paid on a prior Payment Date. Capitalized terms used but not defined
herein are defined in Appendix A of the Indenture.

                  Interest on the IIM-2 Notes will be paid monthly on each

Redemption Date for the Group II Mortgage Loans is 1.650% per annum and (ii)

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 Accrual Period and a year assumed to consist of 360 days. Principal of
and interest on this IIM-2 Note shall be paid in the manner specified in the
Indenture.

                  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 C-Bass Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Notes (herein called
the "Notes"), all issued under the

The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

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

                  Principal of and interest on this Note will be payable on each
Payment Date, commencing on December 26, 2001, as described in the Indenture.
"Payment Date" means the twenty-fifth day of each month, or, if any such date is

                  The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due
and payable in full on the Payment Date in November 2033 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

than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes may declare the Note
Balance of all the notes to be due and payable immediately. All principal
payments on the Notes shall be made PRO RATA to the holders of Notes entitled
thereto.

                  Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Payment Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent
not in full payment of this Note, shall be made, if such Holder holds Notes of
an aggregate initial Note Balance, of at least $1,000,000, by wire transfer to
an account specified in writing by such Holder reasonably satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date or in all other cases or if no
such instructions have been delivered to the Indenture Trustee, by check or
money order to such Noteholder mailed to such Holder's address as it appears in
the Note Register. 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 holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not 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 Holder 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.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or
under the



<PAGE>



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

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of holders of the



<PAGE>



Notes issued thereunder but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  The term "Issuer" as used in this Note includes any successor

Trustee and the holders of Notes under the Indenture.

                  The Notes are issuable only in registered form in

provisions and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder and
thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

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, U.S. Bank National Association, in its individual
capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their
respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or
performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder 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, the holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing contained herein shall be taken

No. 1

                  Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4, 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
Credit-Based Asset Servicing and Securitization LLC or registered assigns, on
each Payment Date all amount owed this Class IIX Note pursuant to Section 3.05
of the Indenture dated as of December 14, 2001 (the "Indenture") between the
Issuer, as Issuer, and U.S. Bank National Association, as Indenture Trustee (the
"Indenture Trustee"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are defined
in Appendix A of the Indenture.

                  Payments 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.

                  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

made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such
transfer, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as
evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in
substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) under the 1933
Act, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall require a written Opinion of
Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to
the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Indenture
Trustee or the Issuer or (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall require the transferor
to execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached as
Exhibit F to the Indenture) and the transferee to execute an investment letter
(in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) acceptable to
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee certifying to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts
surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of
the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer. The Holder of this Note desiring to effect
a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Note or any interest herein to a Plan
subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting directly or
indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using Plan Assets to
acquire this Note shall be made except in accordance with Section 4.02 of the
Indenture.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Seller, the 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 holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not at any time institute against the
Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer, or join in any institution
against the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer of, any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings
under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar

law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the Indenture or
the Basic Documents.

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of holders of the Notes issued thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

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

Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair, the obligation of the Issuer,
which is absolute and unconditional, to make payments 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, U.S. Bank National Association, 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 payments on this Note or performance of, or omission to
perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the
Indenture. The holder 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, the holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing
for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in
substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) under the 1933
Act, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall require a written Opinion of
Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to
the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Indenture
Trustee or the Issuer or (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall require the transferor

Exhibit F to the Indenture) and the transferee to execute an investment letter
(in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture) acceptable to
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee certifying to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts
surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of
the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer. The Holder of this Note desiring to effect
a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Note or any interest herein to a Plan
subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting directly or
indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using Plan Assets to
acquire this Note shall be made except in accordance with Section 4.02 of the
Indenture.

                  Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Seller, the 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 holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not at any time institute against the
Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer, or join in any institution
against



<PAGE>



the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any
United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any
obligations relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

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

                  Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered (as
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 as 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
holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee with the consent of the holders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of all Notes at the time Outstanding and
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of Notes with a majority of the Voting Rights to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the holder of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of holders of the Notes issued thereunder but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies.

                  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 holders of Notes under the Indenture.

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

                  This Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law
provisions and the obligations, rights and



<PAGE>



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 make payments 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, U.S. Bank National Association, 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 payments on this Note or performance of, or omission to
perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the
Indenture. The holder 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, the holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing
for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

COUNTY OF       )

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

         1. The undersigned is an officer of ____________, the proposed
Transferee of an Ownership Interest in a Class [R][R-4] Note (the "Note") issued
pursuant to the Indenture, (the "Agreement"), relating to the above-referenced
Notes, between Salomon Mortgage Loan Trust, Series 2001-CB4 as issuer and U.S.

Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed
to such terms in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to
make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.

         2. The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the
date of the Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring its
Ownership Interest in the Note either (i) for its own account or (ii) as
nominee, trustee or agent for another Person and has attached hereto an
affidavit from such Person in substantially the same form as this affidavit. The
Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.

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

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

         5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 4.02 of the
Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an
Ownership Interest in the Note including, without limitation, the restrictions
on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the Transfer and
mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by
the provisions of Section 4.02 of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on
the face of the Note. The Transferee understands and agrees that any breach of
any of the representations included herein shall render the Transfer to the
Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.

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

         7. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment
or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the Note.

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

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

         10. The Transferee is aware that the Note may be a "noneconomic
residual interest" within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations
promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic
residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the
income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer
was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

         11. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject to
ERISA or a plan that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, nor are we acting
on behalf of such a plan.
