and among CWABS, INC., a Delaware corporation, as depositor (the "Depositor"),
COUNTRYWIDE HOME LOANS, INC., a New York corporation, as seller ("CHL" or a

          The Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed

the REMIC Provisions. The Class A-R Certificate represents ownership of the
sole class of residual interest in the Swap-IO REMIC, the Strip REMIC and the
Master REMIC. The Master REMIC will hold as assets the several classes of
uncertificated Strip REMIC Interests (other than the STR-A-R Interest). Each
Strip REMIC Interest (other than the STR-A-R Interest) is hereby designated as
a regular interest in the Strip REMIC. The Strip REMIC will hold as assets the
several classes of uncertificated Swap-IO REMIC Interests (other than the
SWR-A-R Interest). Each Swap-IO REMIC Interest (other than the SWR-A-R
Interest) is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Swap-IO REMIC. The
Swap-IO REMIC will hold as assets all property of the Trust Fund (excluding
the Credit Comeback Excess Account, the Carryover Reserve Fund and the assets
held in the Pre-Funding Account). The latest possible maturity date of all
REMIC regular interests created in this Agreement shall be the Latest Possible
Maturity Date.

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

</TABLE>

---------------------------

(1)  Scheduled principal, prepayments and Realized Losses will be allocated
     first, to the SWR-Support Interest and second, to the numbered classes
     sequentially (from lowest to highest). Amounts so allocated to a numbered
     class shall be further allocated among the "A" and "B" components of such
     numbered class pro-rata until the entire class is reduced to zero.

(2)  Prior to the 71st Distribution Date, a rate equal to twice the Pool Tax
     Cap less 10.20% per annum. On and after the 71st Distribution Date a rate
     equal to the Pool Tax Cap. The "Pool Tax Cap" means the weighted average
     of the Adjusted Net Mortgage Rates of all the Mortgage Loans. For this
     purpose, beginning on the Distribution Date in December 2016 and ending
     on the Last Scheduled Distribution Date, the Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate
     shall be determined by first reducing the interest payable on each
     40-Year Mortgage Loan by the 40-Year Reserve Rate.

(3)  Prior to the 71st Distribution Date, a rate equal to the lesser of (i)
     10.20% per annum and (ii) twice the Pool Tax Cap. On and after the 71st
     Distribution Date, a rate equal to the Pool Tax Cap.

(4)  On the Closing Date and on each Distribution Date, following the
     allocation of Principal Amounts and Realized Losses, the principal
     balance in respect of the SWR-Support Interest will equal the excess of
     (a) the sum of (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loans (as of the
     end of the related Due Period, reduced by principal prepayments received
     after such Due Period that are to be distributed on such Distribution
     Date) and (ii) the amount, if any, on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account
     in respect of the Mortgage Loans over (b) the principal balance in
     respect of the remaining Swap-IO REMIC Interests other than the SWR-P and
     the SWR-A-R Interests.

(5)  A rate equal to the Pool Tax Cap.

(6)  On each Distribution Date the SWR-P Interest is entitled to all
     Prepayment Charges collected with respect to the Mortgage Loans. It pays
     no interest.

(7)  Beginning on the Distribution Date in December 2016 and ending on the
     Distribution in November 2036 (the "Last Scheduled Distribution Date"),
     the SW-40 Year Reserve Interest shall be entitled to a specific portion
     of the interest payable on each 40-Year Mortgage Loan. Specifically, the
     SW-40 Year Reserve Interest shall be entitled to a specific portion of
     the interest payable on the Stated Principal Balance of each 40-Year
     Mortgage Loan as of the Due Date in the month preceding the month of that
     Distribution Date (after giving effect to principal prepayments in the
     Prepayment Period related to that prior Due Date) at a per annum rate
     equal to 0.80% (the "40-Year Reserve Rate").

(8)  The SW-A-R Interest is the sole class of residual interest in the Swap-IO
     REMIC. It has no principal and pays no principal or interest.

     On each Distribution Date, the Interest Funds and the Principal
Distribution Amount payable with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be
payable with respect to the Swap-IO REMIC Interests in the following manner:


                                      5
<PAGE>


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

     (2) Principal. Principal Distribution Amounts shall be allocated among
the Swap-IO REMIC Interests as described above.

     (3) Prepayment Penalties. All Prepayment Charges are allocated to the
SWR-P Interest.

     STRIP REMIC:

(1) This Strip REMIC Interest has a principal balance that is initially equal
to 100% of its Corresponding Certificate Class issued by the Master REMIC.
Principal payments, both scheduled and prepaid, Realized Losses and Subsequent
Recoveries attributable to the Swap-IO REMIC Interests held by the Strip REMIC
will be allocated to this class to maintain its size relative to its
Corresponding Certificate Class.

(2) On each Distribution Date, the pass-through rate for this Strip REMIC
Interest will be the "Strip REMIC Cap," which will equal the weighted average
of the pass-through rates of the Swap-IO REMIC Interests (other than the
SWR-P, SWR-40 Year Reserve and SWR-A-R Interests) treating each "B" Interest
the cardinal number of which (for example, SW-1B, SW-2B,


                                      6
<PAGE>


SW-3B, etc.) is not less than the ordinal number of the Distribution Date
(first Distribution Date, second Distribution Date, third Distribution Date,
etc.) as capped at a rate equal to the product of (i) 2 and (ii) LIBOR.

(3) This Strip REMIC Interest pays no interest.

(4) This Strip REMIC Interest has a principal balance that is initially equal
to 100% of the Overcollateralized Amount. Principal payments, both scheduled
and prepaid, Realized Losses and Subsequent Recoveries attributable to the
Swap-IO REMIC Interests held by the Strip REMIC will be allocated to this
class to maintain its size relative to the Overcollateralized Amount.

(5) For each Distribution Date, the STR-C-Swap-IO Interest is entitled to
receive from each Swap REMIC "B" Interest the cardinal number of which (for
example, SW-1B, SW-2B, SW-3B, etc.) is not less than the ordinal number of the
Distribution Date (first Distribution Date, second Distribution Date, third
Distribution Date, etc. ) the interest accruing on such interest in excess of
a per annum rate equal to the product of (i) 2 and (ii) LIBOR.

(6) The STR-C-40 Year IO is entitled to all amounts payable with respect to
the SWR-40 Year Reserve Interest.

(7) The STR-P Interest is entitled to all amounts payable with respect to the
SWR-P Interest. It pays no interest.

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

     On each Distribution Date, the Interest Funds and the Principal
Distribution Amount payable with respect to the Swap-IO Interests shall be
payable with respect to the Strip REMIC Interests in the following manner:

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

     (2) Principal. Principal Distribution Amounts shall be allocated among
the Strip REMIC Interests as described above.

     (3) Prepayment Penalties. All Prepayment Charges are allocated to the
STR-P Interest.

(1)  The Certificates will accrue interest at the related Pass-Through Rates
     identified in this Agreement. For federal income tax purposes, including
     the computation of the Class C Distributable Amount and entitlement to
     Net Rate Carryover the pass-through rate in respect of each Class 1-A
     Certificate, Class 2-A Certificate, Class M Certificate and Class B
     Certificate will be subject to a cap equal to the Strip REMIC Cap rather
     than its applicable Net Rate Cap.
(2)  For federal income tax purposes, the Class C Certificates will be treated
     as having a Certificate Principal Balance equal to the Overcollateralized
     Amount.
(3)  For each Interest Accrual Period the Class C Certificates are entitled to
     an amount (the "Class C Distributable Amount") equal to the sum of (a)
     the interest payable on the STR-C-Swap-IO Interest, (b) the interest
     payable on the STR-C-OC Interest (c) the interest payable on the STR-C-40
     Year IO and (d) a specified portion of the interest payable on the Strip
     REMIC Regular Interests (other than the STR-$100, STR-C-OC,
     STR-C-Swap-IO, STR-C-40 Year IO and STR-P Interests) equal to the excess
     of the Strip REMIC Cap over the weighted average interest rate of the
     Strip REMIC Regular Interests (other than the STR-$100, STR-C-OC,
     STR-C-Swap-IO, STR-C-40 Year IO and STR-P Interests) with each such Class
     subject to a cap equal to the Pass-Through Rate of the Corresponding
     Master REMIC Class. The Pass-Through Rate of the Class C Certificates
     shall be a rate sufficient to entitle it to an amount equal to all
     interest accrued on the Mortgage Loans less the interest accrued on the
     other interests issued by the Master REMIC. The Class C Distributable
     Amount for any Distribution Date is payable from


                                      8
<PAGE>


     current interest on the Mortgage Loans and any related
     Overcollateralization Reduction Amount for that Distribution Date.
(4)  For each Distribution Date the Class P Certificates are entitled to all
     Prepayment Charges distributed with respect to the STR-P Interest.
(5)  The Class A-R Certificates represent the sole class of residual interest
     in each REMIC created hereunder. The Class A-R Certificates are not
     entitled to distributions of interest.

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

     2.01(f);

               (2) the execution and delivery of such Subsequent Transfer

     Loan set forth in this clause (4), the obligation under Section 2.03(e)
     of this Agreement of the applicable Seller, to cure, repurchase or

     Transfer Date was 30 or more days delinquent as of the related Cut-off

     on such Subsequent Transfer Date, the characteristics of each Loan Group

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

          Within thirty days after each Subsequent Transfer Date, the
Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee a letter of a nationally recognized
firm of independent public accountants stating whether or not the Subsequent
Mortgage Loans conveyed on such Subsequent Transfer Date conform to the
characteristics described in Section 2.01(e)(6) and (7).

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

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

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

               (iii) in the case of each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS
          Mortgage Loan, a duly executed assignment of the Mortgage to
          "Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-23, CWABS, Inc., by The Bank
          of New York, a New York banking corporation, as trustee under the
          Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of November 1, 2006,
          without recourse" or a copy of such assignment, with recording
          information, (each such assignment, when duly and validly completed,
          to be in recordable form and sufficient to effect the assignment of
          and transfer to the assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to which
          such assignment relates);


                                      59
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

          In the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan that is not a
MERS Mortgage Loan a Seller cannot deliver the original recorded Mortgage or
all interim recorded assignments of the Mortgage satisfying the requirements
of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) concurrently with the execution and delivery
hereof, such Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Co-Trustee a
true copy of such Mortgage and of each such undelivered interim assignment of
the Mortgage each certified by such Seller, the applicable title company,
escrow agent or attorney, or the originator of such Mortgage, as the case may
be, to be a true and complete copy of the original Mortgage or assignment of
Mortgage submitted for recording. For any such Mortgage Loan that is not a
MERS Mortgage Loan each Seller shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Co-Trustee such original Mortgage and such assignment or assignments
with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon receipt thereof from the
public recording official, or a copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by
the relevant recording office, but in no event shall any such delivery be made
later than 270 days following the Closing Date; provided that in the event
that by such date such Seller is unable to deliver or cause to be delivered
each such Mortgage and each interim assignment by reason of the fact that any
such documents have not been returned by the appropriate recording office, or,
in the case of each interim assignment, because the related Mortgage has not
been returned by the appropriate recording office, such


                                      60
<PAGE>


Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered such documents to the Co-Trustee
as promptly as possible upon receipt thereof. If the public recording office
in which a Mortgage or interim assignment thereof is recorded retains the
original of such Mortgage or assignment, a copy of the original Mortgage or
assignment so retained, with evidence of recording thereon, certified to be
true and complete by such recording office, shall satisfy a Seller's
obligations in Section 2.01. If any document submitted for recording pursuant
to this Agreement is (x) lost prior to recording or rejected by the applicable
recording office, the applicable Seller shall immediately prepare or cause to
be prepared a substitute and submit it for recording, and shall deliver copies
and originals thereof in accordance with the foregoing or (y) lost after
recording, the applicable Seller shall deliver to the Co-Trustee a copy of
such document certified by the applicable public recording office to be a true
and complete copy of the original recorded document. Each Seller shall
promptly forward or cause to be forwarded to the Co-Trustee (x) from time to
time additional original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of
a Mortgage Loan and (y) any other documents required to be delivered by the
Depositor or the Master Servicer to the Co-Trustee within the time periods
specified in this Section 2.01.

          With respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a MERS Mortgage Loan
as to which the related Mortgaged Property and Mortgage File are located in
any jurisdiction under the laws of which the recordation of the assignment
specified in clause (iii) above is not necessary to protect the Trustee's and
the Certificateholders' interest in the related Mortgage Loan, as evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel delivered by CHL to the Trustee within 90 days of the
Closing Date (which opinion may be in the form of a "survey" opinion and is
not required to be delivered by counsel admitted to practice law in the
jurisdiction as to which such opinion applies), in lieu of recording the
assignment specified in clause (iii) above, the applicable Seller may deliver
an unrecorded assignment in blank, in form otherwise suitable for recording to
the Co-Trustee; provided that if the related Mortgage has not been returned
from the applicable public recording office, such assignment, or any copy
thereof, of the Mortgage may exclude the information to be provided by the
recording office. As to any Mortgage Loan other than a MERS Mortgage Loan, the
procedures of the preceding sentence shall be applicable only so long as the
related Mortgage File is maintained in the possession of the Co-Trustee in the
State or jurisdiction described in such sentence. In the event that with
respect to Mortgage Loans other than MERS Mortgage Loans (I) any Seller, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer or the NIM Insurer gives written notice to the
Trustee that recording is required to protect the right, title and interest of
the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders in and to any Mortgage Loan,
(II) a court recharacterizes any sale of the Mortgage Loans as a financing, or
(III) as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws of the State or
jurisdiction described in the first sentence of this paragraph or any
applicable political subdivision thereof, or any change in official position
regarding application or interpretation of such laws, including a holding by a
court of competent jurisdiction, such recording is so required, the Co-Trustee
shall complete the assignment in the manner specified in clause (iii) above
and CHL shall submit or cause to be submitted for recording as specified above
or, should CHL fail to perform such obligations, the Trustee shall cause the
Master Servicer, at the Master Servicer's expense, to cause each such
previously unrecorded assignment to be submitted for recording as specified
above. In the event a Mortgage File is released to the Master Servicer as a
result of the Master Servicer's having completed a Request for Document
Release, the Trustee shall complete the assignment of the related Mortgage in
the manner specified in clause (iii) above.


                                      61
<PAGE>


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

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

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

          Each Seller has entered into this Agreement in consideration for the
purchase of the Mortgage Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor and has
agreed to take the actions specified herein. The Depositor, concurrently with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby sells, transfers, assigns
and otherwise conveys to the Trustee for the use and benefit of the
Certificateholders, without recourse, all right, title and interest in the
portion of the Trust Fund not otherwise conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to
Sections 2.01(a) or (b).

          Section 2.02 Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.

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

          The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) an Initial
Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-1 to the
effect that, as to each Initial Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule (other than any Initial Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Initial
Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such certification as not covered by
such certification), the documents described in Section 2.01(g)(i) and, in the
case of each Initial Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the
documents described in Section 2.01(g)(iii) with respect to such Initial
Mortgage Loans as are in the Co-Trustee's possession and based on its review
and examination and only as to the foregoing documents, such documents appear
regular on their face and relate to such Initial Mortgage Loan. The Trustee
agrees to execute and deliver within 30 days after the Closing Date to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) an Interim
Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-2 to the
effect that, as to each Initial Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule (other than any Initial Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Initial
Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such certification as not covered by
such certification) all documents required to be delivered to the Co-Trustee
pursuant to the Agreement with respect to such Initial Mortgage Loans are in
its possession (except those documents described in Section 2.01(g)(vi)) and
based on its review and examination and only as to the foregoing documents,
(i) such documents appear regular on their face and relate to such Initial
Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the information set forth in items (i), (iv), (v),
(vi), (viii), (ix) and (xv) of the definition of the "Mortgage Loan Schedule"
accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. On or before
the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date (or if such thirtieth day is
not a Business Day, the succeeding Business Day), the Trustee shall deliver to
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) a Delay
Delivery Certification with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans
substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-3, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon. The Trustee or the Co-Trustee, as applicable, shall
be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine such documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are
genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other
than what they purport to be on their face.

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


                                      63
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

          If, in the course of such review, the Co-Trustee finds any document
or documents constituting a part of such Mortgage File that do not meet the
requirements of clauses (i)-(iv) and (vi) above, the Trustee shall include
such exceptions in such Final Certification (and the Trustee shall state in
such Final Certification whether any Mortgage File does not then include the
original or duplicate original lender's title policy or a printout of the
electronic equivalent and all


                                      64
<PAGE>


riders thereto). If the public recording office in which a Mortgage or
assignment thereof is recorded retains the original of such Mortgage or
assignment, a copy of the original Mortgage or assignment so retained, with
evidence of recording thereon, certified to be true and complete by such
recording office, shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of clause (ii),
(iii) or (iv) above, as applicable. CHL shall promptly correct or cure such
defect referred to above within 90 days from the date it was so notified of
such defect and, if CHL does not correct or cure such defect within such
period, CHL shall either (A) if the time to cure such defect expires prior to
the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date, substitute for the
related Initial Mortgage Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan, which substitution
shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 2.03, or (B) purchase such Initial Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund
within 90 days from the date CHL was notified of such defect in writing at the
Purchase Price of such Initial Mortgage Loan; provided that any such
substitution pursuant to (A) above or repurchase pursuant to (B) above shall
not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel
required by Section 2.05 hereof and any substitution pursuant to (A) above
shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery to the Co-Trustee of a
Request for File Release. No substitution will be made in any calendar month
after the Determination Date for such month. The Purchase Price for any such
Initial Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by CHL in the Certificate Account
and, upon receipt of such deposit and Request for File Release with respect
thereto, the Co-Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to CHL and
shall execute and deliver at CHL's request such instruments of transfer or
assignment as CHL has prepared, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to vest in CHL, or a designee, the Trustee's interest in any Initial
Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. If pursuant to the foregoing
provisions CHL repurchases an Initial Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an
assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from
MERS to CHL and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on
the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and regulations.

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

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

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

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

          The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver within 30 days after the
Subsequent Transfer Date to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and CHL (on
behalf of each Seller) an Interim Certification substantially in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit G-2 to the effect that, as to each Subsequent
Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Subsequent
Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Subsequent Mortgage Loan specifically
identified in such certification as not covered by such certification), all
documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement with
respect to such Subsequent Mortgage Loan are in its possession (except those
described in Section 2.01(g)(vi)) and based on its review and examination and
only as to the foregoing documents, (i) such documents appear regular on their
face and relate to such Subsequent Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the information set
forth in items (i), (iv), (v), (vi), (viii), (ix) and (xv) of the definition
of the "Mortgage Loan Schedule" accurately reflects information set forth in
the Mortgage File. On or before the thirtieth (30th) day after the Subsequent
Transfer Date (or if such thirtieth day is not a Business Day, the succeeding
Business Day), the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and CHL (on behalf of each Seller) a Delay Delivery Certification with respect
to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans substantially in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit G-3, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon, together with a
Subsequent Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
G-4. The Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or
examine such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine
that the same are genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented
purpose or that they have actually been recorded in the real estate records or
that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.

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

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

               (i) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or facsimile
          signature in blank in the following form: "Pay to the order of
          ________________ without recourse", with all intervening
          endorsements that show a complete chain


                                      66
<PAGE>


          of endorsement from the originator to the Person endorsing the
          Mortgage Note (each such endorsement being sufficient to transfer

     Schedule of the Initial Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2
     are secured by PUDs.

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

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

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

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

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


                                      75
<PAGE>


     Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance, including flood
     insurance, at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and upon the Mortgagor's
     failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and
     maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek
     reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor.

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

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

               (40) There is no material monetary default existing under any
     Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and, to the best of CHL's
     knowledge, there is no material event that, with the passage of time or
     with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would
     constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under
     the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note; and no Seller has waived any
     default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.

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

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

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

               (44) All taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums,
     water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents
     that previously became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow of
     funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such
     item that remains unpaid and that has been assessed, but is not yet due
     and payable. Except for (A) payments in the nature of escrow payments,
     and (B) interest accruing from the date of the Mortgage Note or date of
     disbursement of the Mortgage proceeds, whichever is later, to the day
     that precedes by one month the Due


                                      76
<PAGE>


     Date of the first installment of principal and interest, including
     without limitation, taxes and insurance payments, the Master Servicer has
     not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any
     advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or
     indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by the Mortgage.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


                                      77
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

               (57) To the extent required under applicable law, each
     originator and subsequent mortgagee or servicer of the Mortgage Loan
     complied with all licensing requirements and was authorized to transact
     and do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged
     Property is located at all times when it held or serviced the Mortgage
     Loan. Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local laws or
     regulations, including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real
     estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, anti-predatory
     lending, fair credit reporting, unfair collection practice, equal credit
     opportunity, fair housing and disclosure laws and regulations, applicable
     to the solicitation, origination, collection and servicing of such
     Mortgage Loan have been complied with in all material respects; and any
     obligations of the holder of the Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other loan
     documents have been complied with in all material respects; servicing of
     each Mortgage Loan has been in accordance with prudent mortgage servicing
     standards, any applicable laws, rules and regulations and in accordance
     with the terms of the Mortgage Notes, Mortgage and other loan documents,
     whether such origination and servicing was done by the applicable Seller,
     its affiliates, or any third party which originated the Mortgage Loan on
     behalf of, or sold the Mortgage Loan to, any of them, or any servicing
     agent of any of the foregoing.

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

               (59) No borrower was required to purchase any credit life,
     disability, accident or health insurance product as a condition of
     obtaining the extension of credit.


                                      78
<PAGE>


     No borrower obtained a prepaid single-premium credit life, disability,
     accident or health insurance policy in connection with the origination of
     the Mortgage Loan.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

               (67) Each Mortgage Loan was (A) originated no earlier than six
     months prior to the time the applicable Seller purchased such Mortgage
     Loan pursuant to a mortgage loan purchase agreement or other similar
     agreement and (B) underwritten or reunderwritten by the applicable Seller
     in accordance with the applicable Seller's underwriting guidelines in
     effect at the time the loan was underwritten or reunderwritten, as
     applicable.


                                      79
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

               (72) There is no Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund that was
     originated on or after March 7, 2003, which is a "high cost home loan" as
     defined under the Georgia Fair Lending Act.

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

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

               (75) No Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund is a "high cost home,"
     "covered" (excluding home loans defined as "covered home loans" in the
     New Jersey Home Ownership Security Act of 2002 that were originated
     between November 26, 2003 and July 7, 2004), "high risk home" or
     "predatory" loan under any applicable state, federal or local law (or a
     similarly classified loan using different terminology under a law
     imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or additional legal liability for
     residential mortgage loans having high interest rates, points and/or
     fees).

               (76) There is no Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund that was
     originated on or after October 1, 2002 and before March 7, 2003, which is
     secured by property located in the State of Georgia.

     Loans in Loan Group 1:

<PAGE>


               (xiii) No Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 is a balloon mortgage
          loan that has an original stated maturity of less than seven (7)
          years;

               (xiv) No borrower related to a Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1
          was encouraged or required to select a Mortgage Loan product offered
          by the Mortgage Loan's originator which is a higher cost product
          designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless at the time of such
          Mortgage Loan's origination, such borrower did not qualify taking
          into account credit history and debt-to-income ratios for a
          lower-cost credit product then offered by such Mortgage Loan's
          originator or any affiliate of the Mortgage Loan's originator. If,
          at the time of loan application, the borrower may have qualified for
          a lower-cost credit product then offered by any mortgage lending
          affiliate of the Mortgage Loan's originator, the Mortgage Loan's
          originator referred the borrower's application to such affiliate for
          underwriting consideration;

               (xv) The methodology used in underwriting the extension of
          credit for each Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 employs objective
          mathematical principles which relate the borrower's income, assets
          and liabilities to the proposed payment and such underwriting
          methodology does not rely on the extent of the borrower's equity in
          the collateral as the principal determining factor in approving such
          credit extension. Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at
          the time of origination (application/approval) the borrower had a
          reasonable ability to make timely payments on such Mortgage Loan;

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

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


                                      82
<PAGE>


          insurance policies as part of the origination of, or as a condition
          to closing, such Mortgage Loan;

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

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

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

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

     Subsequent Transfer Agreement by Park Monaco, the sale of the Park Monaco
     Mortgage Loans by Park Monaco under this Agreement and each Subsequent
     Transfer Agreement, the consummation of any other of the transactions
     contemplated by this Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer Agreement,
     and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof are in the

     or (C) constitute a material violation of any statute, order or
     regulation applicable to Park Monaco of any court, regulatory body,

     Monaco; and Park Monaco is not in breach or violation of any material
     indenture or other material agreement or instrument, or in violation of
     any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body,
     administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it
     which breach or violation may materially impair Park Monaco's ability to
     perform or meet any of its obligations under this Agreement.

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

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

     the same.

               (6) Park Monaco will treat the transfer of the Park Monaco

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

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

               (1) Park Sienna is duly organized as a Delaware limited
     liability company and is validly existing and in good standing under the
     laws of the State of Delaware and is duly authorized and qualified to
     transact any and all business contemplated by this Agreement and each
     Subsequent Transfer Agreement to be conducted by Park Sienna in any state
     in which a Mortgaged Property securing a Park Sienna Mortgage Loan is

     qualification and, in any event, is in compliance with the doing business
     laws of any such state, to the extent necessary to ensure its ability to
     enforce each Park Sienna Mortgage Loan, to sell the Park Sienna Mortgage
     Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each Subsequent
     Transfer Agreement and to perform any of its other obligations under this
     Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof.

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

               (3) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each
     Subsequent Transfer Agreement by Park Sienna, the sale of the Park Sienna
     Mortgage Loans by Park Sienna under this Agreement and each Subsequent
     Transfer Agreement, the consummation of any other of the transactions
     contemplated by this Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer Agreement and
     the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof are in the
     ordinary course of business of Park Sienna and will not (A) result in a
     material breach of any term or provision of the certificate of formation
     or limited liability company agreement of Park Sienna or (B) materially
     conflict with, result in a material breach, violation or acceleration of,
     or result in a material default under, the terms of any other material
     agreement or instrument to which Park Sienna is a party or by which it


                                      85
<PAGE>


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

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

               (5) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court
     or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery
     and performance by Park Sienna of, or compliance by Park Sienna with,

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

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

          (e) Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
representation or warranty set forth in Section 2.03(a) through (d) that
materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in
any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt notice
thereof to the other parties, the NIM Insurer and the Swap Counterparty. Each
of the Master Servicer and the Sellers (each, a "Representing Party") hereby
covenants with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in
Sections 2.03(a) through (d) that within 90 days of the earlier of the
discovery by such Representing Party or receipt of written notice by such
Representing Party from any party of a breach of any representation or
warranty set forth herein made that materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such
breach in all material respects and, if such breach is not so cured, shall,
(i) if such 90-day period expires prior to the second anniversary of the
Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan") from the
Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Replacement Mortgage Loan, in the
manner and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section; or (ii)
repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from


                                      86
<PAGE>


the Trustee at the Purchase Price in the manner set forth below; provided that
(a) any such substitution pursuant to (i) above or repurchase pursuant to (ii)
above shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the
Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05 hereof, (b) any such substitution
pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery
to the Trustee of a Request for File Release and (c) any such substitution
pursuant to (i) above shall include a payment by the applicable Representing
Party of any amount as calculated under item (iii) of the definition of
"Purchase Price". Any Representing Party liable for a breach under this
Section 2.03 shall promptly reimburse the Master Servicer or the Trustee for
any expenses reasonably incurred by the Master Servicer or the Trustee in
respect of enforcing the remedies for such breach. To enable the Master
Servicer to amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule, any Representing Party liable
for a breach under this Section 2.03 shall, unless it cures such breach in a
timely fashion pursuant to this Section 2.03, promptly notify the Master
Servicer whether such Representing Party intends either to repurchase, or to
substitute for, the Mortgage Loan affected by such breach. With respect to the
representations and warranties described in this Section that are made to the
best of the Representing Party's knowledge, if it is discovered by any of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Sellers or the Trustee that the substance
of such representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan,
notwithstanding the Representing Party's lack of knowledge with respect to the
substance of such representation or warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed
a breach of the applicable representation or warranty. Any breach of a
representation set forth in Section 2.03(a)(8), (b)(72), (b)(75), (b)(76) or
(b)(77) shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the
Certificateholders.

          With respect to any Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans, the
applicable Seller delivering such Replacement Mortgage Loan shall deliver to
the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders the related Mortgage
Note, Mortgage and assignment of the Mortgage, and such other documents and
agreements as are required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed
and the Mortgage assigned as required by Section 2.01. No substitution will be
made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month.
Scheduled Payments due with respect to Replacement Mortgage Loans in the Due
Period related to the Distribution Date on which such proceeds are to be
distributed shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the
applicable Seller delivering such Replacement Mortgage Loan on such
Distribution Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to
Certificateholders will include the Scheduled Payment due on any Deleted
Mortgage Loan for the related Due Period and thereafter the applicable Seller
shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for
the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans
and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to
the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans
shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the
applicable Seller delivering such Replacement Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to
have made with respect to such Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the
date of substitution, the representations and warranties set forth in Section
2.03(b), (c) or (d) with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such
substitution and the deposit to the Certificate Account of the amount required
to be deposited therein in connection with such substitution as described in
the following paragraph, the Co-Trustee shall release to the Representing
Party the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan and held for
the benefit of the Certificateholders and


                                      87
<PAGE>


shall execute and deliver at the Master Servicer's direction such instruments
of transfer or assignment as have been prepared by the Master Servicer, in
each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the applicable
Seller, or its respective designee, title to the Trustee's interest in any
Deleted Mortgage Loan substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.03.

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

          In the event that a Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan,
the Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Certificate Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 on the Determination Date for the Distribution Date
in the month following the month during which such Seller became obligated to
repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan and upon such deposit of the Purchase
Price, the delivery of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05, if
any, and the receipt of a Request for File Release, the Co-Trustee shall
release the related Mortgage File held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders to such Seller, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver
at such Person's direction the related instruments of transfer or assignment
prepared by such Seller, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary
to transfer title from the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders
and transfer the Trustee's interest to such Seller to any Mortgage Loan
purchased pursuant to this Section 2.03. It is understood and agreed that the
obligation under this Agreement of the Sellers to cure, repurchase or replace
any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and is continuing shall
constitute the sole remedy against the Sellers respecting such breach
available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee.

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

          Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.

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

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


                                      88
<PAGE>


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

               (3) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each
     Subsequent Transfer Agreement by the Depositor, the consummation of the
     transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the fulfillment of or
     compliance with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business
     of the Depositor and will not (A) result in a material breach of any term
     or provision of the charter or by-laws of the Depositor or (B) materially
     conflict with, result in a material breach, violation or acceleration of,
     or result in a material default under, the terms of any other material
     agreement or instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it
     may be bound or (C) constitute a material violation of any statute, order
     or regulation applicable to the Depositor of any court, regulatory body,
     administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the
     Depositor; and the Depositor is not in breach or violation of any
     material indenture or other material agreement or instrument, or in
     violation of any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory
     body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over
     it which breach or violation may materially impair the Depositor's
     ability to perform or meet any of its obligations under this Agreement.

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

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

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


                                      89
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

          Section 2.06 Authentication and Delivery of Certificates.

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

          Section 2.07 Covenants of the Master Servicer.

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

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

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

                                 ARTICLE III.
                ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

          Section 3.01 Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.

          For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer
shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with customary
and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage loan lenders in the
respective states in which the Mortgaged Properties are located, including
taking all required and appropriate actions under each Required Insurance
Policy and taking all required and appropriate actions under each Mortgage
Insurance Policy on behalf of the Co-Trustee, other than the payment of each
Mortgage Insurance Premium and obtaining the approval of each Mortgage Insurer
with respect to the appointment of a successor servicer. In connection with
such servicing and administration, the Master Servicer shall have full power
and authority, acting alone and/or through subservicers as provided in Section
3.02 hereof, subject to the terms hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf
of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and
other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged
Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only
in the manner provided in this Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance
Proceeds, other Liquidation Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries, and (iv)
subject to Section 3.12(b), to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of
the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan; provided
that the Master Servicer shall take no action that is inconsistent with or
prejudices the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders in any
Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the Depositor and the Trustee
under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall represent and protect the
interest of the Trustee in the same manner as


                                      91
<PAGE>


it currently protects its own interest in mortgage loans in its own portfolio
in any claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not
make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any
Mortgage Loan which would (i) cause any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to
qualify as a REMIC, (ii) result in the imposition of any tax under section
860(a) or 860(d) of the Code or (iii) cause any Covered Mortgage Loan to not
be covered by the applicable Mortgage Insurance Policy, but in any case the
Master Servicer shall not act in any manner that is a lesser standard than
that provided in the first sentence of this Section 3.01. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer, in its own name or in the
name of the Depositor and the Trustee, is hereby authorized and empowered by
the Depositor and the Trustee, when the Master Servicer believes it
appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or
discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage
Loans, and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of
the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the
Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery
by any or all of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Master
Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans. Upon receipt of such
documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee shall execute such documents and
deliver them to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer further is authorized
and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the
Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the Subservicer, when the Master
Servicer or the Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in
its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, or
cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R)
System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of assignment and
other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording
of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its
successors and assigns.

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

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

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


                                      92
<PAGE>


respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer under any primary insurance policies shall be deposited in the
Certificate Account.

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

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

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

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


                                      93
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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


                                      94
<PAGE>


the Master Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to,
perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the
Master Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement; provided by virtue of such performance by the
Depositor of its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or
liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and is not
obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement or otherwise.

          Section 3.04 Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.

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

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

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

          (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance
with customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage lenders in
the respective states in which the Mortgaged Properties are located to collect
all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans
to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the
terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy. Consistent with
the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late
payment charge or, subject to Section 3.20, any Prepayment Charge or penalty
interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend
the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage


                                      95
<PAGE>


Note for a period not greater than 270 days. In the event of any such
arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make Advances on the related Mortgage
Loan during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule
of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such
arrangements. In addition, the NIM Insurer's prior written consent shall be
required for any waiver of Prepayment Charges or for the extension of the due
dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note, if the aggregate number of
outstanding Mortgage Loans that have been granted such waivers or extensions
exceeds 5% of the aggregate number of Initial Mortgage Loans and Subsequent
Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall not be required to institute or join
in litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a
Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental
authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes
that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to
which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law.

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

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

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

               (3) all Insurance Proceeds;

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

               (5) all Compensating Interest;

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

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

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

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


                                      96
<PAGE>


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

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

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

          No later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Master Servicer Advance
Date in each of December 2006, January 2007 and February 2007, CHL shall remit
to the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall deposit in the
Certificate Account, the Seller Shortfall Interest Requirement (if any) for
such Master Servicer Advance Date.

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

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

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

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

          (d) If the Pre-Funded Amount is greater than zero, the Trustee shall
establish and maintain, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Pre-Funding
Account, and on the Closing


                                      97
<PAGE>


Date, CHL shall remit the Pre-Funded Amount to the Trustee for deposit in the
Pre-Funding Account.

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

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

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

          (g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any
default occurs under any Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to
Sections 8.01 and


                                      98
<PAGE>


8.02(a)(4), at the request of the Holders of Certificates representing more
than 50% of the Voting Rights or the NIM Insurer, shall take any action
appropriate to enforce payment or performance, including the institution and
prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

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

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

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

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

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

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

                       Distribution Account, Carryover Reserve Fund and
                       the Principal Reserve Fund.

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

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

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

               (iii) [Reserved];

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

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

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

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

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


                                     100
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

          (b) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Distribution Account
for distribution to the Certificateholders and remittance to the Final
Maturity Reserve Fund and the Swap Account in the manner specified in this
Agreement (and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of any
taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant to the third paragraph


                                     101
<PAGE>


of Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time to time make
withdrawals from the Distribution Account for the following purposes:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


                                     102
<PAGE>


               (1) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Carryover Reserve
     Fund and not required to be deposited therein; and

               (2) to clear and terminate the Carryover Reserve Fund upon
     termination of the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.

          Section 3.09 [Reserved].

          Section 3.10 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

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

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

          (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.11(a), when any
property subject to a Mortgage has been or is about to be conveyed by the
Mortgagor, the Master Servicer


                                     103
<PAGE>


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

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


                                     104
<PAGE>


original of such substitution or assumption agreement, which in the case of
the original shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all
purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all
other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. Any fee collected
by the Master Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of
liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer as additional
servicing compensation.

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

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


                                     105
<PAGE>


than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Master Servicer Advance Date immediately
succeeding the date of such modification) for distribution in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement.

          (b) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose
upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such
of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.
In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Master Servicer
shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or
advisable and as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities and the requirements of the insurer under any Required Insurance
Policy; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to expend its
own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration of any
property unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration and/or
foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan
after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that such expenses
will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds (respecting which it
shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Certificate Account
pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof). The Master Servicer shall be responsible for
all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided
that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the proceeds of
liquidation of the related Mortgaged Property and any related Subsequent
Recoveries, as contemplated in Section 3.08 hereof. If the Master Servicer has
knowledge that a Mortgaged Property that the Master Servicer is contemplating
acquiring in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is located within a
one-mile radius of any site with environmental or hazardous waste risks known
to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer will, prior to acquiring the
Mortgaged Property, consider such risks and only take action in accordance
with its established environmental review procedures.

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


                                     106
<PAGE>


          In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property as
soon as practicable in a manner that maximizes the Liquidation Proceeds, but
in no event later than three years after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or,
at the expense of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall request, more than
60 days prior to the day on which such three-year period would otherwise
expire, an extension of the three-year grace period. In the event the Trustee
shall have been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel (such opinion not to be an
expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of
such Mortgaged Property subsequent to such three-year period will not result
in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust Fund as
defined in section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC formed hereunder to
fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding,
and the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to
any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) after the expiration of
such three-year period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed
to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the production of income by or
on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that
would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure
property" within the meaning of section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject
the Trust Fund to the imposition of any federal, state or local income taxes
on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property under section 860G(c) of the
Code or otherwise, unless the Master Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold
harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

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

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

          The proceeds of any Liquidated Mortgage Loan, as well as any
recovery resulting from a partial collection of Liquidation Proceeds or any
income from an REO Property, will be


                                     107
<PAGE>


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

          (c) [Reserved].

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

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

          Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will promptly notify
the Co-Trustee by delivering a Request for File Release. Upon receipt of such
request, the Co-Trustee shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to
the Master Servicer, and the Co-Trustee shall at the Master Servicer's
direction execute and deliver to the Master Servicer the request for
reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or
such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by
the Master Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of
cancellation thereon. The Master Servicer is authorized to cause the removal
from the registration on the MERS(R) System of such Mortgage and to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders or any of
them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or
full release. No expenses incurred in connection with any


                                     108
<PAGE>


instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the
Certificate Account, the Distribution Account, the Carryover Reserve Fund or
the related subservicing account. From time to time and as shall be
appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including
for such purpose, collection under any policy of flood insurance any fidelity
bond or errors or omissions policy, or for the purposes of effecting a partial
release of any Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage or the making
of any corrections to the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or any of the other
documents included in the Mortgage File, the Co-Trustee shall, upon delivery
to the Co-Trustee of a Request for Document Release or a Request for File
Release, as applicable, release the documents specified in such request or the
Mortgage File, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer. Subject to the
further limitations set forth below, the Master Servicer shall cause the
Mortgage File or documents so released to be returned to the Co-Trustee when
the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage
Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in the Certificate
Account, in which case the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Co-Trustee a
Request for File Release for any remaining documents in the Mortgage File not
in the possession of the Master Servicer.

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

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

          Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer shall transmit to the Co-Trustee as required by this Agreement all
documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the
possession of the Master Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to
the Trustee for any funds received by the Master Servicer or that otherwise
are collected by the Master Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries in respect of any Mortgage Loan. All
Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the
Master Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection
of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation


                                     109
<PAGE>


Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries including but not limited to, any funds on
deposit in the Certificate Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer for
and on behalf of the Trust Fund and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive
property of the Trust Fund, subject to the applicable provisions of this
Agreement. The Master Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or
subject any Mortgage File or any funds that are deposited in the Certificate
Account, the Distribution Account, the Carryover Reserve Fund or in any Escrow
Account (as defined in Section 3.06), or any funds that otherwise are or may
become due or payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy,
writ of attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by legal action or
otherwise any claim or right of set off against any Mortgage File or any funds
collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except, however, that
the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any
such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master
Servicer under this Agreement.

          Section 3.15 Servicing Compensation.

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

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

          Section 3.16 Access to Certain Documentation.

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

          Section 3.17 Annual Statement as to Compliance.

          (a) The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the
Trustee on or before March 15 of each year, commencing with its 2007 fiscal
year, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to the signer thereof, that (i) a
review of the activities of the Master Servicer during the preceding calendar
year (or applicable portion thereof) and of the performance of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement, has been made under such officer's supervision
and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the
Master Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement, in all
material respects throughout such year (or applicable portion thereof), or, if
there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material
respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and
status thereof and (iii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, each
Subservicer has fulfilled all its obligations under its Subservicing Agreement
in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a failure
to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect specifying each such
failure known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

          (b) The Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer to deliver to
the Depositor and the Trustee on or before March 15 of each year, commencing
with its 2007 fiscal year, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to the signer
thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of such Subservicer during the
preceding calendar year (or applicable portion thereof) and of the performance
of the Subservicer under the applicable Subservicing Agreement or primary
servicing agreement, has been made under such officer's supervision and (ii)
to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, such
Subservicer has fulfilled all its obligations under the applicable

specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof.

          (c) The Trustee shall forward a copy of each such statement to each
Rating Agency. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to
any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner upon request at the Master
Servicer's expense, provided such statement is delivered by the Master
Servicer to the Trustee.

          Section 3.18 [Reserved].

          Section 3.19 [Reserved].

          Section 3.20 Prepayment Charges.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in
the event of a Principal Prepayment in full or in part of a Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer may not waive any Prepayment Charge or portion thereof
required by the terms of the related Mortgage Note unless (i) such Mortgage
Loan is in default or the Master Servicer believes that such a default is
imminent, and the Master Servicer determines that such waiver would maximize
recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Mortgage Loan, taking into account
the value of such Prepayment Charge, or (ii) (A) the enforceability thereof is
limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or other
similar law relating to creditors' rights generally


                                     111
<PAGE>


or (2) due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other
involuntary payment, or (B) the enforceability is otherwise limited or
prohibited by applicable law. In the event of a Principal Prepayment in full
or in part with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall
deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit T no later than the third Business Day following the immediately
succeeding Determination Date with a copy to the Class P Certificateholders.
If the Master Servicer has waived or does not collect all or a portion of a
Prepayment Charge relating to a Principal Prepayment in full or in part due to
any action or omission of the Master Servicer, other than as provided above,
the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, together with the Principal
Prepayment in full or in part, the amount of such Prepayment Charge (or such
portion thereof as had been waived) for deposit into the Certificate Account
(not later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific time on the immediately succeeding Master
Servicer Advance Date, in the case of such Prepayment Charge) for distribution
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

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

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

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

          Section 3.21 Swap Contract.

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


                                     112
<PAGE>


respect to the Swap Contract into the Swap Account. The Master Servicer shall
deposit any amounts received on behalf of the Swap Trustee from time to time
with respect to the Swap Contract into the Swap Account.

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

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

          Upon the Swap Contract Administrator obtaining actual knowledge of a
Moody's First Level Downgrade or a S&P First Level Downgrade with respect to
the Swap Counterparty (each as defined in the Swap Contract) or upon the Swap
Contract Administrator obtaining actual knowledge of a Moody's Second Level
Downgrade or a S&P Second Level Downgrade with respect to the Swap
Counterparty (each as defined in the Swap Contract), the Swap Trustee shall
direct the Swap Contract Administrator to (i) demand payment of the Delivery
Amount (as defined in the Swap Contract) from the Swap Counterparty on each
Valuation Date (as defined in the Swap Contract) and to perform its other
obligations in accordance with the Swap Contract and (ii) take such other
action required under the Swap Contract. If a Delivery Amount is demanded, the
Swap Contract Administrator, in accordance with the Swap Contract
Administration Agreement, shall establish an account to hold cash and other
eligible investments pledged under the Swap Contract. Any cash or other
Eligible Collateral pledged under the Swap Contract shall not be part of the
Distribution Account or the Swap Account unless remitted to such accounts by
the Swap Contract Administrator in accordance with the Swap Contract
Administration Agreement. If Eligible Collateral with a value equal to the
Delivery Amount is not delivered to the Swap Contract Administrator by the
Swap Counterparty, the Swap Trustee shall direct the Swap Contract
Administrator to notify the Swap Counterparty of such failure.

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

          Any Swap Termination Payment received from the Swap Counterparty
shall be used to pay any upfront amount required under any replacement swap
contract and any excess


                                     113
<PAGE>


shall be distributed to CHL and will not be available to make distributions in
respect of any Class of Certificates. In the event that a replacement swap
contract cannot be procured, any Swap Termination Payment received from the
Swap Counterparty in respect of the termination of the original Swap Contract
shall, in accordance with the Swap Contract Administration Agreement, be
retained by the Swap Contract Administrator and remitted to the Swap Trustee
on subsequent Distribution Dates up to and including the Swap Contract
Termination Date to pay any amounts distributable to the Interest-Bearing
Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04(d)(3) through (8) that will remain
unpaid following all distributions to be made on such Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 4.04(a) through (c). Any portion of such upfront amount
remaining after the Swap Contract Termination Date shall be distributed to CHL
and will not be available to make distributions in respect of any Class of
Certificates.

          In the event that the swap counterparty in respect of a replacement
swap contract pays any upfront amount to the Swap Contract Administrator in
connection with entering into the replacement swap contract and such upfront
amount is received by the Swap Contract Administrator prior to the
Distribution Date on which any Swap Termination Payment will be payable to the
Swap Counterparty in respect of the original Swap Contract, a portion of that
upfront amount equal to the lesser of (x) that upfront amount and (y) the
amount of the Swap Termination Payment due to the Swap Counterparty in respect
of the original Swap Contract (the "Adjusted Replacement Upfront Amount")
shall be included in Interest Funds for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 for that
Distribution Date, pro rata, based upon their respective Interest Funds for
that Distribution Date, and any upfront amount in excess of the Adjusted
Replacement Upfront Amount shall be distributed to CHL and will not be
available to make distributions in respect of any Class of Certificates. Any
upfront amount paid to the Swap Contract Administrator by the swap
counterparty in respect of a replacement swap contract after the Distribution
Date on which any Swap Termination Payment will be payable to the Swap
Counterparty in respect of the original Swap Contract, such upfront amount
shall, in accordance with the Swap Contract Administration Agreement, be
retained by the Swap Contract Administrator and remitted to the Swap Trustee
on subsequent Distribution Dates up to and including the Swap Contract
Termination Date to pay any amounts distributable to the Interest-Bearing
Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04(d)(3) through (8) that will remain
unpaid following all distributions to be made on such Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 4.04(a) through (c).

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

                                 ARTICLE IV.
               DISTRIBUTIONS AND ADVANCES BY THE MASTER SERVICER

          Section 4.01 Advances; Remittance Reports.

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


                                     114
<PAGE>


responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided to it
by the Master Servicer.

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

          (c) In lieu of making all or a portion of such Advance from its own
funds, the Master Servicer may (i) cause to be made an appropriate entry in
its records relating to the Certificate Account that any Amount Held for
Future Distributions has been used by the Master Servicer in discharge of its
obligation to make any such Advance and (ii) transfer such funds from the
Certificate Account to the Distribution Account. Any funds so applied and
transferred shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the
Certificate Account no later than the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which such funds are required
to be distributed pursuant to this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall be
entitled to be reimbursed from the Certificate Account for all Advances of its
own funds made pursuant to this Section as provided in Section 3.08. The
obligation to make Advances with respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue
until such Mortgage Loan is paid in full or becomes a Liquidated Mortgage Loan
or until the purchase or repurchase thereof (or substitution therefor) from
the Trustee pursuant to any applicable provision of this Agreement, except as
otherwise provided in this Section 4.01.

          (d) If the Master Servicer determines that it will be unable to
comply with its obligation to make the Advances as and when described in
paragraphs (b) and (c) immediately above, it shall use its best efforts to
give written notice thereof to the Trustee (each such notice a "Trustee
Advance Notice"; and such notice may be given by facsimile), not later than
3:00 p.m., New York time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the
related Master Servicer Advance Date, specifying the amount that it will be
unable to deposit (each such amount an "Advance Deficiency") and certifying
that such Advance Deficiency constitutes an Advance hereunder and is not a
Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Trustee receives a Trustee Advance Notice on or
before 3:30 p.m., (New York time) on a Master Servicer Advance Date, the
Trustee shall, not later than 3:00 p.m., (New York time), on the related
Distribution Date, deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the
Advance Deficiency identified in such Trustee Advance Notice unless it is
prohibited from so doing by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Trustee shall not be required to make such deposit if the Trustee shall have


                                     115
<PAGE>


received written notification from the Master Servicer that the Master
Servicer has deposited or caused to be deposited in the Certificate Account an
amount equal to such Advance Deficiency. All Advances made by the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 4.01(d) shall accrue interest on behalf of the
Trustee at the Trustee Advance Rate from and including the date such Advances
are made to but excluding the date of repayment, with such interest being an
obligation of the Master Servicer and not the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer
shall reimburse the Trustee for the amount of any Advance made by the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 4.01(d) together with accrued interest, not later
than 6:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day following the related
Distribution Date. In the event that the Master Servicer does not reimburse
the Trustee in accordance with the requirements of the preceding sentence, the
Trustee shall immediately (i) terminate all of the rights and obligations of
the Master Servicer under this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01 and
(ii) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.04, assume all of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.

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

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

          In the event that any Mortgage Loan is the subject of a Prepayment
Interest Shortfall, the Master Servicer shall remit any related Compensating
Interest as part of the related Interest Remittance Amount as provided in this
Agreement. The Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any recovery or
reimbursement for Compensating Interest from the Depositor, the Trustee, any
Seller, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders.

          Section 4.03 [Reserved].

          Section 4.04 Distributions.

          (a) On each Distribution Date, the Interest Funds for such
Distribution Date shall be distributed by the Trustee from the Distribution
Account in the following order of priority:

               (i) from the Interest Funds for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2,
          pro rata based on the Interest Funds for each such Loan Group, to

          Termination Payment (other


                                     116
<PAGE>


          than a Swap Termination Payment due to a Swap Counterparty Trigger
          Event) payable to the Swap Counterparty with respect to such
          Distribution Date;

               (iii) concurrently:

to the Carryover Reserve Fund and then paid by the Carryover Reserve Fund to
those Certificateholders, and if such interest is paid pursuant to Section
4.04(d), then such interest shall be deemed to have been paid to the Swap
Account and then paid by the Swap Account to those Certificateholders. For
purposes of the Code, amounts deemed deposited in the Carryover Reserve Fund
shall be deemed to have first been distributed to the Class C Certificates.

          (f) On each Distribution Date, all Prepayment Charges and Master

Certificate Principal Balances of each Class of Class 2-A Certificates, on a
pro rata basis according to their respective Certificate Principal Balances,
until the Certificate Principal Balances of such Classes have been reduced to
zero.

          (h) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall allocate the amount
of the Subsequent Recoveries with respect to either Loan Group, if any, first

(in the case of any Subsequent Recoveries with respect to Loan Group 1) or the
Certificate Principal Balances of the Classes of Class 2-A Certificates (in
the case of any Subsequent Recoveries with respect to Loan Group 2) to which
Applied Realized Loss Amounts have been previously allocated (such increases,
in the case of Subsequent Recoveries with respect to Loan Group 2, to be made
among the Classes of Class 2-A Certificates on a pro rata basis according to
their respective Certificate Principal Balances), in each case by not more
than the amount of the Unpaid Realized Loss Amount of such Class, and then to
increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Subordinate Certificates to
which Applied Realized Loss Amounts have been previously allocated,
sequentially, to the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5,
Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8, Class M-9 and Class B Certificates, in that
order, in each case by not more than the amount of the Unpaid Realized Loss

          Holders of Certificates to which any Subsequent Recoveries have been
allocated shall not be entitled to any payment in respect of Current Interest
on the amount of such increases for any Accrual Period preceding the
Distribution Date on which such increase occurs.

          Subject to Section 9.02 hereof respecting the final distribution, on
each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions to each
Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a
bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if (i) such
Holder has so notified the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the
related Record Date and (ii) such Holder shall hold Regular Certificates with
an aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of not less than $1,000,000
or evidencing a Percentage Interest aggregating 10% or more with respect to
such Class or, if not, by check mailed by first class mail to such
Certificateholder at the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate

respecting the final distribution, distributions with respect to Certificates
registered in the name of a Depository shall be made to such Depository in
immediately available funds.

following each Determination Date (but in no event later than 5:00 p.m.
Pacific time on the third Business Day before the related Distribution Date),
the Master Servicer shall deliver a report to the Trustee (in the form of a
computer readable magnetic tape or by such other means as the Master Servicer
and the Trustee may agree from time to time) containing such data and
information as agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Trustee (including,
without limitation, the actual mortgage rate for each Credit Comeback Loan)
such as to permit the Trustee to prepare the Monthly Statement and make the
required distributions for the related Distribution Date (the "Remittance
Report"). The Trustee shall not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or
verify information provided to it by the Master Servicer and shall be
permitted to conclusively rely on any information provided to it by the Master
Servicer.

(ii) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01, after giving
effect to the distribution of all available funds, all amounts on deposit in
the Final Maturity Reserve Fund will be distributed in the following order of
priority:

               (1) to the Classes of Class A Certificates, pro rata, based on

     sequentially, to the Class 2-A-1, Class 2-A-2, Class 2-A-3 and Class
     2-A-4 Certificates, in that order, in each case, until the Certificate

     amounts remaining after such allocation based on the Class 1-A Principal
     Distribution Amount and the Class 2-A Principal Distribution Amount will
     be distributed to the outstanding Class 1-A Certificates or the
     outstanding Classes of Class 2-A Certificates, as the case may be,
     pursuant to clause (x) or clause (y), as the case may be; and

amount of distributions to that Certificateholder allocable to interest and
(iii) the related amount of the Servicing Fees paid to or retained by the

obligation of the Trustee shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent

moneys held by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The Final Maturity
Reserve Fund shall not constitute an asset of the Trust Fund or any REMIC
created hereunder.

          The Final Maturity Reserve Trustee shall make deposits to and
withdrawals from the Final Maturity Reserve Fund as specified in Section 4.04.

          Funds in the Final Maturity Reserve Fund may be invested in
Permitted Investments at the direction of the Holders of the Class C
Certificates, which Permitted Investments shall mature not later than the
Business Day immediately preceding the first Distribution Date that follows
the date of such investment (except that if such Permitted Investment is an
obligation of the institution that maintains the Final Maturity Reserve Fund,
then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution
Date) and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All such
Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Final Maturity Reserve
Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Certificates. In the absence of
such written direction, all funds in the Final Maturity Reserve Fund shall be
invested by the Final Maturity Reserve Trustee in The Bank of New York cash
reserves. Any net investment earnings on such amounts shall be retained
therein until withdrawn as provided in Section 3.08. Any losses incurred in
the Final Maturity Reserve Fund in respect of any such investments shall be

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


                                     131
<PAGE>


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

          No beneficial interest in any Class B Certificate that is a
Book-Entry Certificate may be held by any Person that is not a Qualified
Institutional Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a beneficial interest in a
Class B Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate may be transferred by any
Certificate Owner holding such interest to any Institutional Accredited
Investor (other than a Qualified Institutional Buyer) that takes delivery in
the form of a Definitive Certificate upon delivery to the Trustee of (i) such
certifications and/or opinions as are contemplated by the first paragraph of
this Section 5.02(b) and (ii) such written orders and instructions as are
required under the applicable procedures of the Depository to direct the
Trustee to debit the account of a Depository Participant by the denomination
of the transferred interests in such Book-Entry Certificate. Upon delivery to
the Trustee of the certifications and/or opinions contemplated by the first
paragraph of this Section 5.02(b), the Trustee, subject to and in accordance
with the applicable procedures of the Depository, shall reduce the
denomination of the subject Book-Entry Certificate by the denomination of the
transferred interests in such Book-Entry Certificate, and shall cause a
Definitive Certificate of the same Class as such Book-Entry Certificate, and
in a denomination equal to the reduction in the denomination of such
Book-Entry Certificate, to be executed, authenticated and delivered in
accordance with this Agreement to the applicable transferee. Also
notwithstanding the foregoing, any Class B Certificate that is a Definitive
Certificate may be transferred by any Certificateholder holding such
Certificate to any Qualified Institutional Buyer that takes delivery in the
form of a beneficial interest in a Book-Entry Certificate upon delivery to the
Trustee of (i) such certifications and/or opinions as are contemplated by the
first paragraph of this Section 5.02(b) and (ii) such written orders and
instructions as are required under the applicable procedures of the Depository
to direct the Trustee to credit the account of a Depository Participant by the
denomination of the transferred interests in such Class B Certificate. Upon
delivery to the Trustee of the Definitive Certificate to be transferred and
the certifications and/or opinions contemplated by the first paragraph of this
Section 5.02(b), the Trustee, subject to and in accordance with the applicable
procedures of the Depository, shall increase the denomination of the existing
Book-Entry Certificate for the Class


                                     132
<PAGE>


B Certificates by the denomination of the transferred interests in such
Definitive Certificate, shall instruct the Depository to credit the account of
the applicable Depository Participant, and shall cause the subject Definitive
Certificate to be cancelled.

          No Transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate (other than a
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to an affiliate of the Depositor
(either directly or through a nominee) in connection with the initial issuance
of the Certificates) shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received
either (i) a written representation from the transferee of such Certificate
acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee (in the
event such Certificate is a Private Certificate, such requirement is satisfied
only by the Trustee's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee
substantially in the form of Exhibit K or Exhibit L, or in the event such
Certificate is a Residual Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by
the Trustee's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee
substantially in the form of Exhibit I), to the effect that (x) such
transferee is not a Plan, or (y) in the case of an ERISA-Restricted
Certificate that has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a
representation that the transferee is an insurance company which is purchasing
such Certificate with funds contained in an "insurance company general
account" (as such term is defined in section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction
Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTCE 95-60")) and that the purchase and holding of
such Certificate satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under Sections
I and III of PTCE 95-60 or (ii) in the case of any ERISA-Restricted
Certificate presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan
or arrangement subject to ERISA, or a plan or arrangement subject to Section
4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a
trustee of any such plan or arrangement or any other person acting on behalf
of any such plan or arrangement, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Trustee, addressed to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, to the effect that
the purchase or holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate will not result
in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code and will not
subject the Trustee or the Master Servicer to any obligation in addition to
those expressly undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall
not be an expense of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, or the Trust Fund. For
purposes of the preceding sentence, one of such representations, as
appropriate, shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee by the
transferee's acceptance of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate (or the acceptance
by a Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest in any such Class of
ERISA-Restricted Certificates) unless the Trustee shall have received from the
transferee an Opinion of Counsel as described in clause (ii) or a written
representation acceptable in form and substance to the Trustee.
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported transfer
of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of an employee benefit plan
subject to Section 406 of ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code
without the delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to
the Trustee meeting the requirements of clause (i) of the first sentence of
this paragraph as described above shall be void and of no effect. The Trustee
shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of
any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section
5.02(b) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder
thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the
provisions of this Agreement so long as the Trustee, with respect to the
transfer of such Classes of Certificates, required delivery of such
certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by
the terms of this Agreement and examined such certificates and other
documentation or evidence to determine compliance as to form with the express
requirements hereof. The Trustee shall be entitled, but not obligated, to
recover from any Holder of any


                                     133
<PAGE>


ERISA-Restricted Certificate that was in fact an employee benefit plan or
arrangement subject to Section 406 of ERISA or a plan or arrangement subject
to Section 4975 of the Code or a Person acting on behalf of any such plan or
arrangement at the time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it
became such a plan or arrangement or Person acting on behalf of such a plan or
arrangement, all payments made on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and
after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be
paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding Holder of such
Certificate that is not such a plan or arrangement or Person acting on behalf
of a plan or arrangement.

          Until the Swap Trust and the Final Maturity Reserve Fund terminate,
no transfer of an Interest-Bearing Certificate (other than a transfer of an
Interest-Bearing Certificate to an affiliate of the Depositor (either directly
or through a nominee) in connection with the initial issuance of the
Certificates) shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received either (i)
a written representation from the transferee of such Interest-Bearing
Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee to the effect that such transferee is not a Plan, or (ii) a written
representation that the purchase and holding of the Interest-Bearing
Certificate satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under PTCE 84-14,
PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38, PTCE 95-60, PTCE 96-23, the service provider exemption
provided under Section 408 (b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975 (d)(20) of the
Code or a similar exemption. In the event that such representation is not
delivered, one of the foregoing representations, as appropriate, shall be
deemed to have been made by the transferee's (including an initial acquiror's)
acceptance of the Interest-Bearing Certificate. In the event that such
representation is violated, such transfer or acquisition shall be void and of
no effect.

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

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

               (2) Except in connection with (i) the registration of the Tax
     Matters Person Certificate in the name of the Trustee or (ii) any
     registration in the name of, or transfer of a Class A-R Certificate to,
     an affiliate of the Depositor (either directly or through a nominee) in
     connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates, no Ownership
     Interest in a Class A-R Certificate may be registered or transferred, and
     the Trustee shall not register the Transfer of any Class A-R Certificate,
     unless the Trustee shall have been furnished with a certificate (a
     "Transferor Certificate") of the transferor in the form attached hereto
     as Exhibit J-1 and an affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial
     owner or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
     I.

               (3) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in
     a Class A-R Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit
     from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its
     Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer
     Affidavit from any Person for whom such Person is


                                     134
<PAGE>


     acting as nominee, trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer of a
     Class A-R Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a
     Class A-R Certificate, or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest
     in a Class A-R Certificate to any other Person, if it has actual
     knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or that such
     Transfer Affidavit is false.

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

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

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


                                     135

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

          Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

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

          Section 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners.

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

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

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

          Section 5.06 Book-Entry Certificates.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

          Section 5.07 Notices to Depository.

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

          Section 5.08 Definitive Certificates.

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

          Section 5.09 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

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

              THE DEPOSITOR, THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE SELLERS

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

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

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

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

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

          As a condition to the effectiveness of any merger or consolidation,
at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of any merger or
consolidation of the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall provide (x)
written notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this Section and
(y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect
to a replacement Master Servicer.

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

          None of the Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer or the Master
Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the
Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer or the Master Servicer shall be under
any liability to the Trustee (except as provided in Section


                                     139
<PAGE>


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

          Section 6.04 Limitation on Resignation of Master Servicer.

          The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it except (i) upon determination that its duties hereunder
are no longer permissible under applicable law or (ii) upon appointment of a
successor servicer that is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and the NIM
Insurer and the written confirmation from each Rating Agency (which
confirmation shall be furnished to the Depositor, the Trustee and the NIM
Insurer) that such resignation will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce the
then-current rating of the Certificates. Any such determination pursuant to
clause (i) of the preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Master
Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered
to the Trustee. No resignation of the Master Servicer shall become effective
until the Trustee shall have assumed the Master Servicer's responsibilities,
duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the
appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement and the
Depositor shall have received the information described in the following
sentence. As a condition to the effectiveness of any such resignation, at
least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of such resignation, the
Master Servicer shall


                                     140
<PAGE>


provide (x) written notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this
Section and (y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in
order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with
respect to the resignation of the Master Servicer.

          Section 6.05 Errors and Omissions Insurance; Fidelity Bonds.

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

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

                                 ARTICLE VII.
                    DEFAULT; TERMINATION OF MASTER SERVICER

          Section 7.01 Events of Default.

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

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

               (2) any failure by the Master Servicer to observe or perform in
     any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part
     of the Master Servicer contained in this Agreement (except with respect
     to a failure related to a Limited Exchange Act Reporting Obligation) or
     any representation or warranty shall prove to be untrue, which failure or
     breach shall continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date
     on which written notice of such failure shall have been given to the
     Master Servicer by the Trustee, the NIM Insurer or the Depositor, or to
     the Trustee by the


                                     141
<PAGE>


     Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting
     Rights; provided, that the sixty-day cure period shall not apply to the
     initial delivery of the Mortgage File for Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans
     or the failure to repurchase or substitute in lieu thereof; or

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

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

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

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

          If an Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every such
case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the
Trustee shall, but only at the direction of either the NIM Insurer or the
Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights, by
notice in writing to the Master Servicer (with a copy to each Rating Agency
and the Depositor), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder. In
addition, if during the period that the Depositor is required to file Exchange
Act Reports with respect to the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall fail to
observe or perform any of the obligations that constitute a Limited Exchange
Act Reporting Obligation or the obligations set forth in Section 3.17(a) or
Section 11.07(a)(1) and (2), and such failure continues for the lesser of 10
calendar days or such period in which the applicable Exchange Act Report can
be filed timely (without taking into account any extensions), so long as such
failure shall not have been remedied, the Trustee shall, but only at the
direction of the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the
Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder. The
Depositor shall not be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of the
Master Servicer if a failure of the Master Servicer to identify a
Subcontractor "participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of
Item 1122 of Regulation AB was attributable


                                     142
<PAGE>


solely to the role or functions of such Subcontractor with respect to mortgage
loans other than the Mortgage Loans.

          On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written
notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer hereunder, whether with
respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the
Trustee. The Trustee shall thereupon make any Advance described in Section
4.01 hereof subject to Section 3.04 hereof. The Trustee is hereby authorized
and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as
attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments,
and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to
effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the
transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related
documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly provided in such written notice, no
such termination shall affect any obligation of the Master Servicer to pay
amounts owed pursuant to Article VIII. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate
with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer's
responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the
transfer to the Trustee of all cash amounts which shall at the time be
credited to the Certificate Account, or thereafter be received with respect to
the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies and
the Depositor of the occurrence of an Event of Default.

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

          If the Master Servicer is terminated, the Trustee shall provide the
Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect
to a successor master servicer in the event the Trustee should succeed to the
duties of the Master Servicer as set forth herein.

          Section 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

          On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof, the Trustee shall, to the extent
provided in Section 3.04, be the successor to the Master Servicer in its
capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or
provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties
and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms
and provisions hereof and applicable law including the obligation to make
advances pursuant to Section 4.01. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall
be entitled to all fees, costs and expenses relating to the Mortgage Loans
that the Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer
had continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee
has become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section
7.01 hereof, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if
it is prohibited by applicable law from making Advances


                                     143
<PAGE>


pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof or if it is otherwise unable to so act, (i)
appoint any established mortgage loan servicing institution reasonably
acceptable to the NIM Insurer (as evidenced by the prior written consent of
the NIM Insurer), or (ii) if it is unable for 60 days to appoint a successor
servicer reasonably acceptable to the NIM Insurer, petition a court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint any established mortgage loan servicing
institution, the appointment of which does not adversely affect the
then-current rating of the Certificates and the NIM Insurer guaranteed notes
(without giving any effect to any policy or guaranty provided by the NIM
Insurer) by each Rating Agency as the successor to the Master Servicer
hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties
or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder. Any successor Master Servicer
shall be an institution that is a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac approved
seller/servicer in good standing, that has been approved by each Mortgage
Insurer if required, that has a net worth of at least $15,000,000 and that is
willing to service the Mortgage Loans and executes and delivers to the
Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting such delegation and
assignment, that contains an assumption by such Person of the rights, powers,
duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Master Servicer
(other than liabilities and indemnities of the Master Servicer under Section
6.03 hereof incurred prior to termination of the Master Servicer under Section
7.01), with like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement;
and provided further that each Rating Agency acknowledges that its rating of
the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment and delegation
will not be qualified or reduced as a result of such assignment and
delegation. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder
shall be effective until (i) the Trustee shall have consented thereto, (ii)
written notice of such proposed appointment shall have been provided by the
Trustee to each Certificateholder and (iii) at least 15 calendar days prior to
the effective date of such appointment, (x) the Trustee shall provide written
notice to the Depositor of such successor pursuant to this Section 7.02 and
(y) such successor Master Servicer shall provide to the Depositor in writing
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all
information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its
reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a replacement
master servicer. The Trustee shall not resign as servicer until a successor
servicer has been appointed and has accepted such appointment. Pending
appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee,
unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, shall, subject to
Section 3.04 hereof, act in such capacity as herein above provided. In
connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on
Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided that no such
compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Master Servicer
hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent
with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
Neither the Trustee nor any other successor servicer shall be deemed to be in
default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making,
any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any failure to perform,
or any delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities hereunder, in
either case caused by the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver or
provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any cash, information,
documents or records to it.

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

<PAGE>


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

          Section 7.03 Notification to Certificateholders.

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

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

                                ARTICLE VIII.
                   CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE AND THE CO-TRUSTEE

          Section 8.01 Duties of Trustee.

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

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


                                     145

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

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

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

               (3) the Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as
     Trustee, with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be
     taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders
     of each Class of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting
     Rights of such Class relating to the time, method and place of conducting
     any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any
     trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Agreement; and

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

          The Trustee hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that,
except as permitted by Article IX hereof, it shall not cause the Trust Fund to
consolidate or amalgamate with, or merge with or into, or transfer all or
substantially all of the Trust Fund to, another Person.

          Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.

          (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


                                     147
<PAGE>


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

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

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

          Section 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Mortgage Loans.

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

          Section 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates.

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

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

          The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the
Trustee, upon its request, for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement


                                     148
<PAGE>


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

          Section 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.

          The Trustee hereunder shall, at all times, be a corporation or
association organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the
United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000,
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and with a
credit rating that would not cause any of the Rating Agencies to reduce their
respective ratings of any Class of Certificates below the ratings issued on
the Closing Date (or having provided such security from time to time as is
sufficient to avoid such reduction). If such corporation or association
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section 8.06 the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In
case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 8.06, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07 hereof. The corporation
or national banking association serving as Trustee may have normal banking and
trust relationships with the Depositor, the Sellers and the Master Servicer
and their respective affiliates; provided that such corporation cannot be an
affiliate of the Master Servicer other than the Trustee in its role as
successor to the Master Servicer.

          Section 8.07 Resignation and Removal of Trustee.

          The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts
hereby created by (1) giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor
and the Master Servicer and by mailing notice of resignation by first class
mail, postage prepaid, to the Certificateholders at their addresses appearing
on the Certificate Register and each Rating Agency, not less than 60 days
before the date specified in such notice when, subject to Section 8.08, such
resignation is to take effect, and (2) acceptance of appointment by a
successor trustee in accordance with Section


                                     149
<PAGE>


8.08 and meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 8.06. If no successor
trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30
days after the giving of such notice or resignation, the resigning Trustee may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor trustee.

          As a condition to the effectiveness of any such resignation, at
least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of such resignation, the
Trustee shall provide (x) written notice to the Depositor of any successor
pursuant to this Section and (y) in writing and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested
by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item
6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to the resignation of the Trustee.

          If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof and shall fail to resign
after written request thereto by the NIM Insurer or the Depositor, (ii) the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or
insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed,
or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, (iii)(A) a tax is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by any
state in which the Trustee or the Trust Fund is located, (B) the imposition of
such tax would be avoided by the appointment of a different trustee and (C)
the Trustee fails to indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax, or (iv) during
the period which the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports with
respect to the Trust Fund, the Trustee fails to comply with its obligations
under the last sentence of Section 7.01, the preceding paragraph, Section 8.09
or Article XI and such failure is not remedied within the lesser of 10
calendar days or such period in which the applicable Exchange Act Report can
be filed timely (without taking into account any extensions), then, in the
case of clauses (i) through (iii), the Depositor, the NIM Insurer or the
Master Servicer, or in the case of clause (iv), the Depositor, may remove the
Trustee and appoint a successor trustee, reasonably acceptable to the NIM
Insurer, by written instrument, in triplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the Trustee, one copy of which shall be delivered to the
Master Servicer and one copy of which shall be delivered to the successor
trustee.

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

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

          Section 8.08 Successor Trustee.

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

          No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, is reasonably
acceptable to the NIM Insurer, its appointment shall not adversely affect the
then-current ratings of the Certificates and has provided to the Depositor in
writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor,
all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with
its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a
replacement Trustee. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as
provided in this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the
succession of such trustee hereunder to the NIM Insurer and all Holders of
Certificates. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within ten days after
acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee
shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.

          Section 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.

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

          As a condition to the effectiveness of any merger or consolidation,
at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of any merger or
consolidation of the Trustee, the Trustee shall provide (x) written notice to
the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this Section and (y) in writing and
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all
information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its
reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a replacement
Trustee.

          Section 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

          Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time,
for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which
any part of the Trust


                                     151
<PAGE>


Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note may at the time be located, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall
execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by
the Trustee and reasonably acceptable to the NIM Insurer to act as co-trustee
or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate
trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or
Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, such
title to the Trust Fund or any part thereof, whichever is applicable, and,
subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the Trustee may
consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer shall not have joined
in such appointment, or the NIM Insurer shall not have approved such
appointment, within 15 days after receipt by it of a request to do so, or in
the case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or
separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility
as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 and no notice to Certificateholders
of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required
under Section 8.08.

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

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

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

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

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


                                     152
<PAGE>


Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy
thereof given to the Master Servicer and the Depositor.

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

          Section 8.11 Tax Matters.

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


                                     153
<PAGE>


this Section 8.11, the amount of any federal, state and local taxes, including
prohibited transaction taxes as described below, imposed on any REMIC created
hereunder prior to the termination of the Trust Fund when and as the same
shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Trustee or
any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax in appropriate
proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from withholding payment of such
tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings); (i) sign
or cause to be signed federal, state or local income tax or information
returns; (j) maintain records relating to each REMIC created hereunder,
including but not limited to the income, expenses, assets and liabilities of
each such REMIC, and the fair market value and adjusted basis of the Trust
Fund property determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code, as
may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or
information; and (k) as and when necessary and appropriate, represent the
Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to an
examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority, request an
administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any REMIC created
hereunder, enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing
agency, extend any statute of limitations relating to any tax item of the
Trust Fund, and otherwise act on behalf of any REMIC created hereunder in
relation to any tax matter involving any such REMIC.

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

          In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of
the Trust Fund as defined in section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net
income from foreclosure property" of the Trust Fund as defined in section
860G(c) of the Code, on any contribution to the Trust Fund after the startup
day pursuant to section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed,
including, without limitation, any federal, state or local tax or minimum tax
imposed upon the Trust Fund pursuant to sections 23153 and 24872 of the
California Revenue and Taxation Code if not paid as otherwise provided for
herein, such tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee, if any such other tax
arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its
obligations under this Agreement, (ii) (x) the Master Servicer, in the case of
any such minimum tax, and (y) any party hereto (other than the Trustee) to the
extent any such other tax arises out of or results from a breach by such other
party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or (iii) in all other
cases, or in the event that any liable party here fails to honor its
obligations under the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), any such tax will be paid
first with amounts otherwise to be distributed to the Class A-R
Certificateholders, and second with amounts otherwise to be distributed to all
other Certificateholders in the same manner as if such tax were a Realized
Loss that occurred ratably


                                     154
<PAGE>


within each Loan Group. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, to the extent that such tax is payable by the Class A-R Certificates,
the Trustee is hereby authorized to retain on any Distribution Date, from the
Holders of the Class A-R Certificates (and, if necessary, second, from the
Holders of all other Certificates in the priority specified in the preceding
sentence), funds otherwise distributable to such Holders in an amount
sufficient to pay such tax. The Trustee agrees to promptly notify in writing
the party liable for any such tax of the amount thereof and the due date for
the payment thereof.

          The Trustee shall treat the Carryover Reserve Fund and the Swap
Trust, including the Swap Account, as outside reserve funds within the meaning
of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h), neither of which is an asset of any REMIC
created hereunder. The Carryover Reserve Fund shall be treated as owned by the
Class C Certificateholders and the Swap Trust, including the Swap Account,
shall be treated as owned by the Class C Certificateholders. The rights of the
Holders of each Class of Certificates (other than the Class P and Class A-R
Certificates) to receive payments from, and the deemed obligations of such
Holders to make payments to, the Carryover Reserve Fund or the Swap Trust,
including the Swap Account, shall be treated as rights and obligations with
respect to notional principal contracts written by the Holders of the Class C
Certificates in respect of any Net Rate Carryover distributed pursuant to
Sections 4.04(c)(4), and (ii) the Swap Counterparty in respect of any Net Rate
Carryover funded by the Swap Contract and in respect of any residual payments
from such Swap Contract received by the Class C Certificates. Thus, the
Certificates (other than the Class P and Class A-R Certificates), shall be
treated as representing ownership of Master REMIC regular interests coupled
with contractual rights and obligations within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation 1.860G-2(i). For purposes of determining the issue price of the
various Master REMIC regular interests, the Trustee shall treat the $520,000
upfront amount received by CHL from the Swap Counterparty in connection with
the execution of the Confirmation as an additional amount paid by the
Certificateholders for the Master REMIC regular interests. Any differences in
the distributions to a Certificateholder (positive or negative) that would
result from the application of the Strip REMIC Cap rather than the applicable
Net Rate Cap shall be treated by the Trustee as reconciled among the
Certificates by swap payments made pursuant to notional principal contracts
entered into among the Certificateholders.

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


                                     155
<PAGE>


          The Trustee shall treat the Final Maturity Reserve Fund as an
outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h)
that is owned by the Holders of the Class C Certificates, and that is not an
asset of any REMIC created hereunder. Beginning on the Distribution Date in
December 2016, the Trustee shall treat any monies payable to the Class C
Certificateholders with respect to their interest in the STR-C-40 Year IO, as
first paid to the Class C Certificates and then deposited in the Final
Maturity Reserve Fund. Any monies payable on the STR-C-40 Year IO in excess of
the Final Maturity Required Deposit shall be the "Excess Deposit." For income
tax purposes, to the extent the amount of any Excess Deposit is payable to
Holders of Certificates other than the Class C Certificates, such amount shall
be treated as payable to such Holders as Net Rate Carryover and any remaining
amount of Excess Deposit shall be treated as payable to the Holders of the
Class C Certificates. Any other monies received by the Holders of the
Interest-Bearing Certificates from the Final Maturity Reserve Fund will be
treated as monies paid by the Holders of the Class C Certificates to acquire
the Interest-Bearing Certificates receiving such monies. Thus, with respect to
such other monies, the Interest-Bearing Certificates and the Class C
Certificates shall be treated as representing ownership of not only a Master
REMIC regular interest, but also ownership of an interest in a forward
purchase contract and the Trustee shall treat the rights of the holders of the
Interest-Bearing Certificates to receive such other monies from the Final
Maturity Reserve Fund as rights in forward purchase contracts entered into
with the Holders of the Class C Certificates.

          Section 8.12 Co-Trustee.

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

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

               (1) the duties and obligations of the Co-Trustee shall be
     determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement with the
     exception of Section 8.10, the Co-Trustee shall not be liable,
     individually or as Co-Trustee, except for the performance of such duties
     and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no
     implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement
     against the Co-Trustee and the Co-Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
     the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
     therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Co-


                                     156
<PAGE>


     Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement that it
     reasonably believed in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly
     executed by the proper authorities respecting any matters arising
     hereunder; and

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


                                     157
<PAGE>


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

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

          (g) The Co-Trustee hereunder shall, at all times, be a corporation
or association organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the
United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000,
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and with a
credit rating that would not cause any of the Rating Agencies to reduce their
respective ratings of any Class of Certificates below the ratings issued on
the Closing Date (or having provided such security from time to time as is
sufficient to avoid such reduction). If such corporation or association
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section 8.12 the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In
case at any time the Co-Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 8.12, the Co-Trustee shall resign immediately
in the manner and with the effect specified in paragraph (h) below. The
corporation or national banking association serving as Co-Trustee may have

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

          Section 8.13 Access to Records of the Trustee.

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

          Section 8.14 Suits for Enforcement.

          If an Event of Default or other material default by the Master
Servicer or the Depositor under this Agreement occurs and is continuing, at
the direction of the Certificateholders holding not less than 51% of the
Voting Rights or the NIM Insurer, the Trustee shall proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders or the NIM Insurer
under this Agreement by a suit, action, or proceeding in equity or at law or
otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement
contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution of any power granted in
this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal, equitable, or other
remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, and subject to the
foregoing, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights

                                  TERMINATION

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

          Subject to Section 9.03 and Section 9.04, the Trust Fund shall
terminate and the obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Sellers, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee created hereby
with respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earliest of (a) the
purchase by the Master Servicer or NIM Insurer (the party exercising such
purchase option, the "Terminator") of all of the Mortgage Loans (and REO
Properties) at a price (the "Termination Price") equal to the sum of (i) 100%
of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than in respect
of an REO Property), (ii) accrued interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage
Rate (or, if such repurchase is effected by the Master Servicer, at the
applicable Net Mortgage Rate), (iii) the appraised value of any REO Property
(up to the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan), such
appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the

portion of any unreimbursed Advances, made on the Mortgage Loans prior to the
exercise of such repurchase, (b) the purchase by the Winning Bidder of all of
the Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) after a Successful Auction is
conducted pursuant to Section 9.04 and the related auction proceeds are
distributed pursuant to Section 9.02(c) and (c) the later of (i) the maturity
or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last
Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO
Property and (ii) the distribution to the Certificateholders of all amounts
required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement, as applicable.
In no event shall the trusts created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (i)
the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the
descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to

pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of the immediately preceding paragraph,
as the case may be, shall be conditioned upon (1) the Stated Principal Balance
of the Mortgage Loans, at the time of any such repurchase, aggregating ten
percent (10%) or less of the sum of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal
Balance of the Initial Mortgage Loans and the Pre-Funded Amount, (2) unless
the NIM Insurer otherwise consents, the purchase price for such Mortgage Loans

absence of a request for an auction, or the absence of a Successful Auction,
of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.04.

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

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

          Section 9.02 Final Distribution on the Certificates.

          (a) Timing of Notice of Final Distribution, Auction or Optional
Termination.

               (1) If on any Determination Date, the Master Servicer
     determines that there are no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other
     funds or assets in the Trust Fund other than the funds in the Certificate
     Account, then the Master Servicer shall direct the Trustee promptly to
     send a final distribution notice to each Certificateholder in accordance
     with Section 9.02(b). In the event such notice is given, the Master
     Servicer shall cause all funds in the Certificate Account to be remitted
     to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account on or before the
     Business Day prior to the applicable Distribution Date, net of any
     amounts permitted to be withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.08(a). Upon such
     final deposit with respect to the Trust Fund and the receipt by the
     Trustee of a Request for File Release therefor, the Co-Trustee shall
     promptly release to the Master Servicer the Mortgage Files for the
     Mortgage Loans.

               (2) If the Directing Certificateholder chooses to exercise its
     right to cause an auction pursuant to Section 9.04, then the Directing
     Certificateholder shall provide written notice to the Master Servicer no
     later than the first day of the calendar month in which such auction is
     to be conducted. If a Successful Auction is held pursuant to the
     requirements of Section 9.04, then the Trustee shall distribute the
     proceeds of the Successful Auction that have been remitted to the
     Distribution Account to the Certificateholders pursuant to Sections 4.04
     and 9.04 hereof on the Distribution Date in the calendar month
     immediately following the calendar month in which the Successful Auction
     occurs.

               (3) If the Directing Certificateholder does not exercise its
     right to cause an auction pursuant to Section 9.04 and the Terminator
     (after prior written notice to the Master Servicer if the Terminator is
     the NIM Insurer) elects to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to Section
     9.01, then at least 20 days prior to the date notice is to be mailed to
     Certificateholders in accordance with Section 9.02(b), the Terminator
     shall notify the Depositor and the Trustee of (a) its election to
     terminate the Trust Fund, (b) the Distribution Date on which it intends
     to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01 and (c) the
     applicable purchase price of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. In
     the event such notice is given, the Terminator shall remit to the Master
     Servicer, on or before the Business Day prior to the final Distribution
     Date, for deposit into the Certificate Account, the Termination Price.
     The Master Servicer shall cause all funds in the Certificate Account,
     including the Termination Price, net of any amounts permitted to be
     withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.08(a), to be remitted to the Trustee for
     deposit in the Distribution Account on or before the Business Day prior
     to the applicable Distribution Date. Upon such final deposit with respect
     to the Trust Fund and the receipt by the Trustee of a Request for File
     Release therefor, the Co-Trustee shall promptly release to the Master
     Servicer the Mortgage Files for the Mortgage Loans.


                                     161
<PAGE>


          (b) Timing of Notice to Certificateholders of Termination. Notice of
any termination of the Trust Fund (whether because of a Successful Auction,
Optional Termination or otherwise), specifying the Distribution Date on which
Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment of the final
distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Trustee by
letter to Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 10th day and no later
than the 15th day of the month immediately preceding the month of such final
distribution. Any such notice shall specify (i) the Distribution Date upon
which final distribution on the Certificates will be made upon presentation
and surrender of such Certificates at the office therein designated, (ii) the
amount of such final distribution, (iii) the location of the office or agency
at which such presentation and surrender must be made, and (iv) that the
Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable,
distributions being made only upon presentation and surrender of such
Certificates at the office therein specified. The Master Servicer will give
such notice to each Rating Agency and the Swap Counterparty at the time such
notice is given to Certificateholders.

          (c) Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee
shall cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders of each Class, in each
case on the final Distribution Date and in the order and priority set forth in
Section 4.04 (and with respect to the Class C Certificates after a Successful
Auction, Sections 9.04(g) and (k)) hereof and in proportion to their
respective Percentage Interests from the Distribution Account (and, if
applicable, the Carryover Reserve Fund) an amount equal to (i) as to each
Class of Regular Certificates, the Certificate Principal Balance thereof plus
accrued interest thereon (or on its Notional Amount, if applicable) in the
case of an interest-bearing Certificate and (ii) as to the Class A-R
Certificates, the amount, if any, which remains on deposit in the Distribution
Account (other than the amounts retained to meet claims) after application
pursuant to clause (i) above. Notwithstanding the reduction of the Certificate
Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates to zero, such Class will be
outstanding hereunder (solely for the purpose of receiving distributions (if
any) to which it may be entitled pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and
not for any other purpose) until the termination of the respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Depositor, each Seller, the Master Servicer and
the Trustee hereunder in accordance with Article IX.

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

          Section 9.03 Additional Termination Requirements.

          (a) In the event the Terminator exercises its purchase option as
provided in Section 9.01 or there is a Successful Auction pursuant to Section
9.04, the Trust Fund shall be


                                     162
<PAGE>


terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, unless
the Trustee has been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of
the Terminator (or the Directing Certificateholder, in the case of a
Successful Auction), to the effect that the failure of the Trust Fund to
comply with the requirements of this Section 9.03 will not (i) result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" on any REMIC as defined in
Section 860F of the Code, or (ii) cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding:

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

               (2) Within 90 days after the time of adoption of such a plan of
     complete liquidation, the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the
     Trust Fund to the Terminator (or the Winning Bidder in the case of a
     Successful Auction) for cash in accordance with Section 9.01 and, if
     applicable, Section 9.04.

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

          (c) The Trustee, as agent for any REMIC created hereunder, hereby
agrees to adopt and sign such a plan of complete liquidation upon the written
request of the Master Servicer, and the receipt of the Opinion of Counsel
referred to in Section 9.03(a)(1) and to take such other action in connection
therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Terminator or the Directing
Certificateholder, as applicable.

          Section 9.04 Auction of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

          (a) On or after the Optional Termination Date, the Holder of the
largest Percentage Interest of the Class C Certificates (the "Directing
Certificateholder"), at its option, may by written instruction direct the
Master Servicer to direct the Trustee to solicit bids in a commercially
reasonable manner from Qualified Bidders for the purchase of the Mortgage
Loans and any REO Properties owned by the Trust Fund. The Directing
Certificateholder shall provide written notice to the Master Servicer as
provided in Section 9.02(a)(2). Any such direction by the Directing
Certificateholder shall (i) be made in writing and (ii) include contact
information for the Directing Certificateholder. Upon receipt of any direction
from the Directing Certificateholder meeting the requirements of the
immediately preceding sentence, the Trustee


                                     163
<PAGE>


shall commence the auction process described in this Section 9.04. The Trustee
may engage a financial advisor, which financial advisor may be CHL or one of
its affiliates, in order to perform any of the duties of the Trustee specified
in Section 9.04. To effectuate such sale, the Trustee (or such financial
advisor) shall follow the procedures specified in Section 9.04(b) below. The
Trustee shall facilitate the sale of the assets in the Trust Fund to the
Winning Bidder so long as the Trustee (or any financial advisor on its behalf)
has received at least three bids from Qualified Bidders and at least one such
bid is at least equal to the Acceptable Bid Amount. In the event the auction
is not a Successful Auction, the Trustee may repeat this process periodically
thereafter as directed by the Directing Certificateholder until a Successful
Auction is conducted or the Terminator purchases all of the Mortgage Loans and
REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01. The Trustee shall be reimbursed for
its reasonable costs, including expenses associated with engaging any
financial advisor, from the Directing Certificateholder if the auction is not
a Successful Auction, and, if the auction is a Successful Auction, from the
proceeds of the auction before the proceeds are distributed to
Certificateholders.

          The Trustee, upon inquiry from the Master Servicer, agrees to
provide the Master Servicer with the Percentage Interest of Class C
Certificates held by the Directing Certificateholder.

          If CHL or any of its affiliates is the Directing Certificateholder,
such Directing Certificateholder shall not have the right to direct the
Trustee to solicit bids for the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and any REO
Properties owned by the Trust Fund.

          (b) The Trustee (or any financial advisor on its behalf) shall
solicit bids for the purchase of assets owned by the Trust Fund as provided in
Section 9.04(a) not later than two Business Days following receipt of the
Directing Certificateholder's written instruction by contacting by telephone
or in writing at least three Qualified Bidders and requesting that each
Qualified Bidder bid on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties owned by the
Trust Fund (on a non-recourse basis with no representations or warranties of
any nature whatsoever made by the Trustee (or such financial advisor)) and
providing to the Qualified Bidder any information relating to the Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties owned by the Trust Fund reasonably requested by such
Qualified Bidder, subject to the Qualified Bidder's written agreement not to
use such information in the purchase or sale of Certificates (it being
understood no Qualified Bidder shall be obligated to submit a bid or take any
other action in connection with any auction). The Master Servicer shall
cooperate with the Trustee (and any financial advisor on its behalf) during
the auction process. At 1:00 p.m. New York time on the second Business Day
after the date on which bids are last solicited (such second day, the "Bid
Determination Date"), the Trustee (or any financial advisor on its behalf)
shall determine the highest bid based on the bids received by the Trustee (or
any financial advisor on its behalf) on or before such time.

          (c) If the highest of the bids that are submitted by Qualified
Bidders are less than the Minimum Auction Amount, then the Trustee shall
promptly inform the Directing Certificateholder of the amount of the shortfall
and indicate that the Directing Certificateholder must notify the Trustee
within 24 hours whether it will contribute the amount of such difference (such
difference being the "Auction Supplement Amount") so that the auction will be
a Successful Auction. If the highest of the bids that are submitted by
Qualified Bidders is equal to or greater than the Minimum Auction Amount, or
if the Directing Certificateholder notifies the


                                     164
<PAGE>


Trustee within 24 hours of its receipt of notice as described in the previous
sentence that it will contribute the Auction Supplement Amount, then the
Trustee (or any financial advisor on its behalf) shall notify promptly (but in
any event no later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following
the Bid Determination Date) the Winning Bidder that its bid was the highest
bid and shall provide wiring instructions for payment of the bid amount into
the Certificate Account by 12:00 p.m. New York time on the second Business Day
following the Bid Determination Date and, if applicable, provide the Directing
Certificateholder with wiring instructions for payment of the Auction
Supplement Amount into the Certificate Account by such time.

          (d) If such Winning Bidder does not wire the bid amount so that it
is received in the Certificate Account in immediately available funds by 12:00
p.m. New York time on the second Business Day following the Bid Determination
Date, the Trustee shall repeat the process specified in the preceding
paragraph with respect to the second highest bid, but only if such bid is at
least the Minimum Auction Amount or the Directing Certificateholder agrees to
pay the new Auction Supplement Amount. If no other bids are available to be
accepted pursuant to the preceding sentence, or if the amount remitted by the
Winning Bidder plus any Auction Supplement Amount remitted by the Directing
Certificateholder is less than the Minimum Auction Amount, then the auction
shall be considered to have failed for all purposes.

          (e) The Trustee shall not be liable with regard to the selection or
engagement of, or for any act or omission of, a financial advisor pursuant to
this Section 9.04 if the Trustee engages CHL to be such financial advisor.

          (f) In the event of a Successful Auction and so long as the Winning
Bidder has wired its bid amount (and the Directing Certificateholder has wired
any Auction Supplement Amount, if applicable) to the Certificate Account as
provided above, then the Trustee shall promptly convey to the Winning Bidder
the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties owned by the Trust Fund. The Master
Servicer shall take all reasonable actions requested by the Trustee to effect
such conveyance, including remitting to the Distribution Account from the
Certificate Account, on the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date on
which final distribution on the Certificates is required to be paid under this
Agreement, all amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account, net of any
amounts permitted to be withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.08(a) and amounts
owing to the Trustee in reimbursement of its reasonable costs, including
expenses associated with engaging any financial advisor, incurred in
connection with the auction process. Such amounts owed to the Trustee shall be
withdrawn from the Certificate Account by the Master Servicer and paid to the
Trustee.

          (g) Any amount paid by the Winning Bidder in excess of the Minimum
Auction Amount shall be distributed by the Trustee pro rata to the Class C
Certificates on the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the
Certificates is made.

          (h) In the event of a Successful Auction and to the extent the Swap
Contract is still outstanding, the Directing Certificateholder shall either:


                                     165
<PAGE>


          (1) if any Swap Termination Payment would be payable by the Swap
     Contract Administrator to the Swap Counterparty were the Swap Contract to
     be terminated following final distribution on the Certificates, either:

          (A) pay to the Swap Contract Administrator any such Swap Termination
     Payment; or

               (B) accept assignment of the Swap Contract to the extent that
          the Directing Certificateholder is an acceptable counterparty for
          the Swap Counterparty;

          (2) if any Swap Termination Payment would be payable by the Swap
     Counterparty to the Swap Contract Administrator were the Swap Contract to
     be terminated following final distribution on the Certificates, either

               (A) (i) if the Directing Certificateholder does not own 100% of
          the Class C Certificates, accept assignment of the Swap Contract to
          the extent that the Directing Certificateholder is an acceptable
          counterparty for the Swap Counterparty and pay to the Swap Contract
          Administrator the Swap Termination Payment that would be owed to the
          Swap Contact Administrator by the Swap Counterparty if the Swap
          Contract were terminated by the Swap Contract Administrator
          following distribution on the Certificates or (ii) if the Directing
          Certificateholder owns 100% of the Class C Certificates, accept
          assignment of the Swap Contract to the extent that the Directing
          Certificateholder is an acceptable counterparty for the Swap
          Counterparty; or

               (B) instruct the Swap Contract Administrator to accept from the
          Swap Counterparty any Swap Termination Payment that would be owed to
          the Swap Contract Administrator.

          (i) Any amounts paid to the Swap Contract Administrator pursuant to
subsection (h)(2) above shall be distributed to the Class C Certificates, pro
rata, based on entitlement, by the Swap Contract Administrator.

          (j) The Master Servicer may purchase the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties owned by the Trust Fund for its own account pursuant to Section
9.01 or consent to the NIM Insurer's purchase of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties owned by the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01 only if (1) the
Directing Certificateholder chooses not to request an auction as described
above or if the immediately preceding auction is unsuccessful or (2) the
Master Servicer notifies the Directing Certificateholder no later than 30 days
prior to the date on which the Master Servicer or the NIM Insurer, as
applicable, intends to effect the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties owned by the Trust Fund and the Directing Certificateholder does
not direct the Trustee to conduct an auction prior to the end of that 30-day
period.

          (k) If the Directing Certificateholder pays any Auction Supplement
Amount pursuant to Section 9.04(c) or any Swap Termination Payment pursuant to
Section 9.04(h)(1)(A), on the final Distribution Date any amounts to be
distributed to the Class C Certificates pursuant


                                     166
<PAGE>


to Section 4.02 will be distributed as follows, first to the Directing
Certificateholder, in an amount up to the sum of such Auction Supplement
Amount and such Swap Termination Payment and second to the Class C
Certificates, pro rata. For federal income tax purposes, such Auction
Supplement Amount and such Swap Termination Payment so distributed shall be
deemed paid pro rata to the Class C Certificates, and the portion of such
amounts deemed distributed to holders of the Class C Certificates other than
the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed paid from such other holders
to the Directing Certificateholder.

                                  ARTICLE X.

                           MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

matters or questions arising under this Agreement, as shall not be
inconsistent with any other provisions herein if such action shall not, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect
the interests of any Certificateholder; provided that any such amendment shall
be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Certificateholders and no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required if the
Person requesting such amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency
stating that such amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal
of the respective ratings then assigned to the Certificates, it being
understood and agreed that any such letter in and of itself will not represent
a determination as to the materiality of any such amendment and will represent
a determination only as to the credit issues affecting any such rating. Any
amendment described above made solely to conform this Agreement to the
Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement shall be deemed not to adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment that significantly changes the
permitted activities of the trust created by this Agreement may be made
without the consent of Certificateholders representing not less than 51% of
the Voting Rights of each Class of Certificates affected by such amendment.
Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees that it will cooperate with each
other party in amending this Agreement pursuant to clause (iv) above.

          The Trustee, the Co-Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and
the Sellers with the consent of the NIM Insurer may also at any time and from
time to time amend this Agreement, without the consent of the
Certificateholders, to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to
such extent as shall be necessary or appropriate to maintain the qualification
of the Trust Fund as a REMIC under the Code or to avoid or minimize the risk
of the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund pursuant to the Code that would
be a claim against the Trust Fund at any time prior to the final redemption of
the Certificates, provided that the Trustee has been provided an Opinion of
Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting such


                                     167
<PAGE>


opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee, to the effect
that such action is necessary or appropriate to maintain such qualification or
to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax.

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

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

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

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

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

          Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into an
amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel, reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee and the NIM Insurer that (i) such amendment is permitted and is
not prohibited by this Agreement and that all requirements for amending this
Agreement have been complied with; and (ii) either (A) the


                                     168
<PAGE>


amendment does not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth in the immediately
preceding clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant to this Section
10.01.

          Section 10.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

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

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

          Section 10.03 Governing Law.

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

          Section 10.04 Intention of Parties.

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

          The Depositor for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the NIM
Insurer and the Swap Counterparty shall, to the extent consistent with this
Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this
Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the assets of the Trust
Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security
interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such
throughout the term


                                     169
<PAGE>


of the Agreement. The Depositor shall arrange for filing any Uniform
Commercial Code continuation statements in connection with any security
interest granted or assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders and the Swap Counterparty.

          (b) The Depositor hereby represents that:

               (i) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security
          interest (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in
          the State of New York (the "NY UCC")) in the Mortgage Notes in favor
          of the Trustee, which security interest is prior to all other liens,
          and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers
          from the Depositor.

               (ii) The Mortgage Notes constitute "instruments" within the
          meaning of the NY UCC.

               (iii) Immediately prior to the assignment of each Mortgage Loan
          to the Trustee, the Depositor owns and has good and marketable title
          to such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any lien, claim or
          encumbrance of any Person.

               (iv) The Depositor has received all consents and approvals
          required by the terms of the Mortgage Loans to the sale of the
          Mortgage Loans hereunder to the Trustee.

               (v) All original executed copies of each Mortgage Note that are
          required to be delivered to the Co-Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01
          have been delivered to the Co-Trustee.

               (vi) Other than the security interest granted to the Trustee
          pursuant to this Agreement, the Depositor has not pledged, assigned,
          sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of
          the Mortgage Loans. The Depositor has not authorized the filing of
          and is not aware of any financing statements against the Depositor
          that include a description of collateral covering the Mortgage Loans
          other than any financing statement relating to the security interest
          granted to the Trustee hereunder or that has been terminated. The
          Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against
          the Depositor.

          (c) The Master Servicer shall take such action as is reasonably
necessary to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of
the Trustee in the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that the obligation to
deliver the Mortgage File to the Co-Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 shall be
solely the Depositor's obligation and the Master Servicer shall not be
responsible for the safekeeping of the Mortgage Files by the Co-Trustee.

          (d) It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in subsection (b) above shall survive delivery of the
Mortgage Files to the Co-Trustee. Upon discovery by the Depositor or the
Trustee of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties set
forth in subsection (b) above, which breach materially and adversely affects
the interest of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach
shall give prompt written notice to the others and to each Rating Agency.

          If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms
of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the

shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions
of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the Holders thereof.

          Section 10.07 Assignment.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except as
provided pursuant to Section 6.02, this Agreement may not be assigned by the
Master Servicer without the prior written consent of the Trustee and the
Depositor.

          Section 10.08 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

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

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

          No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue or by availing
itself of any provisions of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or
proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this
Agreement, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a
written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as
hereinbefore


                                     172
<PAGE>


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

          Section 10.09 Inspection and Audit Rights.

          The Master Servicer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will
permit any representative of the Depositor, any Seller, the NIM Insurer or the
Trustee during the Master Servicer's normal business hours, to examine all the
books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Master Servicer
relating to the Mortgage Loans, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to
cause such books to be audited by independent certified public accountants
selected by the Depositor, a Seller, the NIM Insurer or the Trustee and to
discuss its affairs, finances and accounts relating to the Mortgage Loans with
its officers, employees and independent public accountants (and by this
provision the Master Servicer hereby authorizes such accountants to discuss
with such representative such affairs, finances and accounts), all at such
reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested. Any
out-of-pocket expense incident to the exercise by the Depositor, any Seller,
the NIM Insurer or the Trustee of any right under this Section 10.09 shall be
borne by the party requesting such inspection; all other such expenses shall
be borne by the Master Servicer.

          Section 10.10 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.

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

          Section 10.11 Rights of NIM Insurer.

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

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


                                     173
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

                            EXCHANGE ACT REPORTING

          Section 11.01 Filing Obligations.

          The Master Servicer, the Trustee and each Seller shall reasonably
cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of the
Depositor's reporting requirements under the Exchange Act with respect to the
Trust Fund. In addition to the information specified below, if so requested by
the Depositor for the purpose of satisfying its reporting obligation under the
Exchange Act, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and each Seller shall (and the
Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer to) provide the Depositor with
(a) such information which is available to such Person without unreasonable
effort or expense and within such timeframe as may be reasonably requested by
the Depositor to comply with the Depositor's reporting obligations under the
Exchange Act and (b) to the extent such Person is a party (and the Depositor
is not a party) to any agreement or amendment required to be filed, copies of
such agreement or amendment in EDGAR-compatible form.

          Section 11.02 Form 10-D Filings.

          (a) In accordance with the Exchange Act, the Trustee shall prepare
for filing and file within 15 days after each Distribution Date (subject to
permitted extensions under the Exchange Act) with the Commission with respect
to the Trust Fund, a Form 10-D with copies of the Monthly Statement and, to
the extent delivered to the Trustee, no later than 10 days following the
Distribution Date, such other information identified by the Depositor or the
Master Servicer, in writing, to be filed with the Commission (such other
information, the "Additional Designated Information"). If the Depositor or
Master Servicer directs that any Additional Designated Information is to be
filed with any Form 10-D, the Depositor or Master Servicer, as the case may
be, shall specify the Item on Form 10-D to which such information is
responsive and, with respect to any Exhibit to be filed on Form 10-D, the
Exhibit number. Any information to be filed on Form 10-D shall be delivered to
the Trustee in EDGAR-compatible form or as otherwise agreed upon by the
Trustee and the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, at the
Depositor's expense, and any necessary conversion to EDGAR-compatible format
will be at the Depositor's expense. At the reasonable request of, and in
accordance with the reasonable directions of, the Depositor or the Master
Servicer, subject to the two preceding sentences, the Trustee shall prepare
for filing and file an amendment to any Form 10-D previously filed with the
Commission with respect to the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer shall sign the
Form 10-D filed on behalf of the Trust Fund.

          (b) No later than each Distribution Date, each of the Master
Servicer and the Trustee shall notify (and the Master Servicer shall cause any
Subservicer to notify) the Depositor and the Master Servicer of any Form 10-D
Disclosure Item, together with a description of any such Form 10-D Disclosure
Item in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Depositor. In addition
to such information as the Master Servicer and the Trustee are obligated to
provide pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement, if so requested by the
Depositor, each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall provide such
information which is available to the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as
applicable, without unreasonable effort or expense regarding the performance
or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (in the case of the Trustee, based on the


                                     175
<PAGE>


information provided by the Master Servicer) as is reasonably required to
facilitate preparation of distribution reports in accordance with Item 1121 of
Regulation AB. Such information shall be provided concurrently with the
Remittance Reports in the case of the Master Servicer and the Monthly
Statement in the case of the Trustee, commencing with the first such report
due not less than five Business Days following such request.

          (c) The Trustee shall not have any responsibility to file any items
(other than those generated by it) that have not been received in a format
suitable (or readily convertible into a format suitable) for electronic filing
via the EDGAR system and shall not have any responsibility to convert any such
items to such format (other than those items generated by it or that are
readily convertible to such format). The Trustee shall have no liability to
the Certificateholders, the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer, the Depositor or
the NIM Insurer with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file any of
Form 10-D to the extent that such failure is not the result of any negligence,
bad faith or willful misconduct on its part.

          Section 11.03 Form 8-K Filings.

          The Master Servicer shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust
Fund any Form 8-K required by the Exchange Act. Each Form 8-K must be signed
by the Master Servicer. Each of the Master Servicer (and the Master Servicer
shall cause any Subservicer to promptly notify) and the Trustee shall promptly
notify the Depositor and the Master Servicer (if the notifying party is not
the Master Servicer), but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after
its occurrence, of any Reportable Event of which it has actual knowledge. Each
Person shall be deemed to have actual knowledge of any such event to the
extent that it relates to such Person or any action or failure to act by such
Person. Concurrently with any Subsequent Transfer, CHL shall notify the
Depositor and the Master Servicer, if any material pool characteristic of the
actual asset pool at the time of issuance of the Certificates differs by 5% or
more (other than as a result of the pool assets converting into cash in
accordance with their terms) from the description of the asset pool in the
Prospectus Supplement.

          Section 11.04 Form 10-K Filings.

          Prior to March 30th of each year, commencing in 2007 (or such

substance as required by the Exchange Act. A senior officer in charge of the
servicing function of the Master Servicer shall sign each Form 10-K filed on
behalf of the Trust Fund. Such Form 10-K shall include as exhibits each (i)
annual compliance statement described under Section 3.17, (ii) annual report
on assessments of compliance with servicing criteria described under Section
11.07 and (iii) accountant's report described under Section 11.07. Each Form
10-K shall also include any Sarbanes-Oxley Certification required to be
included therewith, as described in Section 11.05.

          If the Item 1119 Parties listed on Exhibit Z have changed since the
Closing Date, no later than March 1 of each year, the Master Servicer shall

Subservicer to notify) the Depositor and the Master Servicer of any Form 10-K
Disclosure Item, together with a description of any such Form 10-K Disclosure
Item in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Depositor.
Additionally, each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall provide, and
shall cause each Reporting Subcontractor retained by the Master Servicer or
the Trustee, as applicable, and in the case of the Master Servicer shall cause
each Subservicer, to provide, the following information no later than March 15
of each year in which a Form 10-K is required to be filed on behalf of the
Trust Fund: (i) if such Person's report on assessment of compliance with
servicing criteria described under Section 11.07 or related registered public
accounting firm attestation report described under Section 11.07 identifies
any material instance of noncompliance, notification of such instance of
noncompliance and (ii) if any such Person's report on assessment of compliance
with servicing criteria or related registered public accounting firm
attestation report is not provided to be filed as an exhibit to such Form
10-K, information detailing the explanation why such report is not included.

          Section 11.05 Sarbanes-Oxley Certification.

          Each Form 10-K shall include a certification (the "Sarbanes-Oxley
Certification") required by Rules 13a-14(d) and 15d-14(d) under the Exchange
Act (pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules
and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (including any
interpretations thereof by the Commission's staff)). No later than March 15 of
each year, beginning in 2007, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall
(unless such person is the Certifying Person), and the Master Servicer shall
cause each Subservicer and each Reporting Subcontractor and the Trustee shall
cause each Reporting Subcontractor to, provide to the Person who signs the
Sarbanes-Oxley Certification (the "Certifying Person") a certification (each,
a "Performance Certification"), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit X-1 (in
the case of a Subservicer or any Reporting Subcontractor of the Master
Servicer or a Subservicer) and Exhibit X-2 (in the case of the Trustee or any
Reporting Subcontractor of the Trustee), on which the Certifying Person, the
entity for which the Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity's
officers, directors and Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Person,
"Certification Parties") can reasonably rely. The senior officer in charge of
the servicing function of the Master Servicer shall serve as the Certifying
Person on behalf of the Trust Fund. Neither the Master Servicer nor the
Depositor will request delivery of a certification under this clause unless
the Depositor is required under the Exchange Act to file an annual report on
Form 10-K with respect to the Trust Fund. In the event that prior to the
filing date of the Form 10-K in March of each year, the Trustee or the
Depositor has actual knowledge of information material to the Sarbanes-Oxley
Certification, the Trustee or the Depositor, as the case may be, shall
promptly notify the Master Servicer and the Depositor. The respective parties
hereto agree to cooperate with all reasonable requests made by any Certifying
Person or Certification Party in connection with such Person's attempt to
conduct any due diligence that such Person reasonably believes to be
appropriate in order to allow it to deliver any Sarbanes-Oxley Certification
or portion thereof with respect to the Trust Fund.

          Section 11.06 Form 15 Filing.

          Prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Depositor is able
to do so under applicable law, the Depositor shall file a Form 15 relating to
the automatic suspension of reporting in respect of the Trust Fund under the
Exchange Act.

          Section 11.07 Report on Assessment of Compliance and Attestation.

          (a) On or before March 15 of each calendar year, commencing in 2007:

               (1) Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall deliver
     to the Depositor and the Master Servicer a report (in form and substance
     reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor) regarding the Master Servicer's
     or the Trustee's, as applicable, assessment of compliance with the
     Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year, as
     required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122
     of Regulation AB. Such report shall be signed by an authorized officer of
     such Person and shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on
     a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit Y hereto delivered
     to the Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement. To
     the extent any of the Servicing Criteria are not applicable to such
     Person, with respect to asset-backed securities transactions taken as a
     whole involving such Person and that are backed by the same asset type
     backing the Certificates, such report shall include such a statement to
     that effect. The Depositor and the Master Servicer, and each of their
     respective officers and directors shall be entitled to rely on upon each
     such servicing criteria assessment.

               (2) Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall deliver
     to the Depositor and the Master Servicer a report of a registered public
     accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Depositor that attests to,
     and reports on, the assessment of compliance made by Master Servicer or
     the Trustee, as applicable, and delivered pursuant to the preceding
     paragraphs. Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules
     1-02(a)(3)and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the
     Exchange Act, including, without limitation that in the event that an
     overall opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting
     firm shall state in such report why it was unable to express such an
     opinion. Such report must be available for general use and not contain
     restricted use language. To the extent any of the Servicing Criteria are
     not applicable to such Person, with respect to asset-backed securities
     transactions taken as a whole involving such Person and that are backed
     by the same asset type backing the Certificates, such report shall
     include such a statement that that effect.

               (3) The Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer and each
     Reporting Subcontractor to deliver to the Depositor an assessment of
     compliance and accountant's attestation as and when provided in
     paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 11.07.

               (4) The Trustee shall cause each Reporting Subcontractor to
     deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer an assessment of
     compliance and accountant's attestation as and when provided in
     paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section.

               (5) The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall execute (and the
     Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer to execute, and the Master
     Servicer and the Trustee shall cause each Reporting Subcontractor to
     execute) a reliance certificate to enable the Certification Parties to
     rely upon each (i) annual compliance statement provided pursuant to
     Section 3.17, (ii) annual report on assessments of compliance with
     servicing criteria


                                     178
<PAGE>


     provided pursuant to this Section 11.07 and (iii) accountant's report
     provided pursuant to this Section 11.07 and shall include a certification
     that each such annual compliance statement or report discloses any
     deficiencies or defaults described to the registered public accountants
     of such Person to enable such accountants to render the certificates
     provided for in this Section 11.07.

          (b) In the event the Master Servicer, any Subservicer, the Trustee
or Reporting Subcontractor is terminated or resigns during the term of this
Agreement, such Person shall provide documents and information required by
this Section 11.07 with respect to the period of time it was subject to this
Agreement or provided services with respect to the Trust Fund, the
Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

          (c) Each assessment of compliance provided by a Subservicer pursuant
to Section 11.07(a)(3)shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified
on a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit Y hereto delivered to
the Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement or, in the
case of a Subservicer subsequently appointed as such, on or prior to the date
of such appointment. An assessment of compliance provided by a Subcontractor
pursuant to Section 11.07(a)(3)or (4) need not address any elements of the
Servicing Criteria other than those specified by the Master Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to Section 11.07(a)(1).

          Section 11.08 Use of Subservicers and Subcontractors.

          (a) The Master Servicer shall cause any Subservicer used by the
Master Servicer (or by any Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor to
comply with the provisions of Section 3.17 and this Article XI to the same
extent as if such Subservicer were the Master Servicer (except with respect to
the Master Servicer's duties with respect to preparing and filing any Exchange
Act Reports or as the Certifying Person). The Master Servicer shall be
responsible for obtaining from each Subservicer and delivering to the
Depositor any servicer compliance statement required to be delivered by such
Subservicer under Section 3.17, any assessment of compliance and attestation
required to be delivered by such Subservicer under Section 11.07 and any
certification required to be delivered to the Certifying Person under Section
11.05 as and when required to be delivered. As a condition to the succession
to any Subservicer as subservicer under this Agreement by any Person (i) into
which such Subservicer may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be
appointed as a successor to any Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall provide
to the Depositor, at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of
such succession or appointment, (x) written notice to the Depositor of such
succession or appointment and (y) in writing and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested
by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item
6.02 of Form 8-K.

          (b) It shall not be necessary for the Master Servicer, any
Subservicer or the Trustee to seek the consent of the Depositor or any other
party hereto prior to the utilization of any Subcontractor. The Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall promptly upon request provide to
the Depositor (or any designee of the Depositor, such as the Master Servicer
or administrator) a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to
the Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by such
Person (or in the case of the Master


                                     179
<PAGE>


Servicer, any Subservicer), specifying (i) the identity of each such
Subcontractor, (ii) which (if any) of such Subcontractors are "participating
in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB,
and (iii) which elements of the Servicing Criteria will be addressed in
assessments of compliance provided by each Subcontractor identified pursuant
to clause (ii) of this paragraph.

          As a condition to the utilization of any Subcontractor determined to
be a Reporting Subcontractor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as
applicable, shall cause any such Subcontractor used by such Person (or in the
case of the Master Servicer, any Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor
to comply with the provisions of Sections 11.07 and 11.09 of this Agreement to
the same extent as if such Subcontractor were the Master Servicer (except with
respect to the Master Servicer's duties with respect to preparing and filing
any Exchange Act Reports or as the Certifying Person) or the Trustee, as
applicable. The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be
responsible for obtaining from each Subcontractor and delivering to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer, any assessment of compliance and
attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 11.05
and Section 11.07, in each case as and when required to be delivered.

          Section 11.09 Amendments.

          In the event the parties to this Agreement desire to further clarify
or amend any provision of this Article XI, this Agreement shall be amended to
reflect the new agreement between the parties covering matters in this Article
XI pursuant to Section 10.01, which amendment shall not require any Opinion of
Counsel or Rating Agency confirmations or the consent of any Certificateholder
or the NIM Insurer.

          If, during the period that the Depositor is required to file
Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer is no
longer an Affiliate of the Depositor, the Depositor shall assume the
obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer in this Article XI
with respect to the preparation and filing of the Exchange Act Reports and/or
acting as the Certifying Person, if the Depositor has received indemnity from
such successor Master Servicer satisfactory to the Depositor, and such Master
Servicer has agreed to provide a Sarbanes-Oxley Certification to the Depositor
substantially in the form of Exhibit AA and the certifications referred to in
Section 11.07.

          Section 11.10 Reconciliation of Accounts.

          Any reconciliation of Accounts performed by any party hereto, or any
Subservicer or Subcontractor shall be prepared no later than 45 calendar days
after the bank statement cut-off date.

STATE OF                     )
                             )       ss.:
COUNTY OF                    )


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

          1. The undersigned is an officer of _______________, the proposed
Transferee of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate (the
"Certificate") issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated
as of November 1, 2006 (the "Agreement"), by and among CWABS, Inc., as
depositor (the "Depositor"), Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., as a Seller, Park
Monaco Inc., as a Seller, Park Sienna LLC, as a Seller, Countrywide Home Loans
Servicing LP, as Master Servicer, The Bank of New York, as Trustee, and The
Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Co-Trustee. Capitalized terms used,
but not defined herein or in Exhibit 1 hereto, shall have the meanings
ascribed to such terms in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the
undersigned to make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.

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

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

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


                                     I-1
<PAGE>


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

or any agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing, (iii) an
organization (except certain farmers' cooperatives described in section 521 of
the Code) that is exempt from tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including
the tax imposed by section 511 of the Code on unrelated business taxable
income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in section 860E(c)(1) of the
Code) with respect to any Class A-R Certificate, (iv) rural electric and
telephone cooperatives described in section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code, (v) an

                       Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement

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

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

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

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

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

<PAGE>


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

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

       The term "securities" as used herein does not include (i) securities
          of issuers that are affiliated with the Buyer, (ii) securities that
          are part of an unsold allotment to or subscription by the Buyer, if
          the Buyer is a dealer, (iii) securities issued or guaranteed by the

       For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned

          any of the securities referred to in the preceding paragraph, except
          (i) where the Buyer reports its securities holdings in its financial
          statements on the basis of their market value, and (ii) no current
          information with respect to the cost of those securities has been

          securities may be valued at market. Further, in determining such
          aggregate amount, the Buyer may have included securities owned by
          subsidiaries of the Buyer, but only if such subsidiaries are
          consolidated with the Buyer in its financial statements prepared in
          accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and if the
          investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the Buyer's
          direction. However, such securities were not included if the Buyer
          is a majority-owned, consolidated subsidiary of another enterprise
          and the Buyer is not itself a reporting company under the Securities
          Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

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


                                     L-4

       Until the date of purchase of the Rule 144A Securities, the Buyer
          will notify each of the parties to which this certification is made
          of any changes in the information and conclusions herein. Until such
          notice is given, the Buyer's purchase of the Certificates will
          constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of
          such purchase. In addition, if the Buyer is a bank or savings and
          loan is provided above, the Buyer agrees that it will furnish to
          such parties updated annual financial statements promptly after they
          become available.

Depositor, Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., as a Seller, Park Monaco Inc., as a

Master Servicer, The Bank of New York, as Trustee, and The Bank of New York

meanings ascribed to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

          __________________ hereby certifies that he/she is a Servicing
Officer, holding the office set forth beneath his/her name and hereby further
certifies as follows:

          With respect to the Distribution Date in _________ 20[ ] and each
Mortgage Loan set forth in the attached schedule:

          1. A Principal Prepayment in full or in part was received during the
related Prepayment Period;

          2. Any Prepayment Charge due under the terms of the Mortgage Note with
respect to such Principal Prepayment was or was not, as indicated on the
attached schedule using "Yes" or "No", received from the Mortgagor and deposited
in the Certificate Account;

          3. As to each Mortgage Loan set forth on the attached schedule for
which all or part of the Prepayment Charge required in connection with the
Principal Prepayment was waived by the Master Servicer, such waiver was, as
indicated on the attached schedule, based upon:

                    (i) the Master Servicer's determination that such waiver
          would maximize recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Mortgage
          Loan, taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge, or


                                      T-1
<PAGE>

                    (ii)(A) the enforceability thereof is limited (1) by
          bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or other similar law
          relating to creditors' rights generally or (2) due to acceleration in
          connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (B) the
          enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law;
          and

          4. We certify that all amounts due in connection with the waiver of a
Prepayment Charge inconsistent with clause 3 above which are required to be
deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.20 of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, have been or will be so deposited.

1122(d)(1)(ii)       such servicing activities.
--------------------                                                                       ----------------------

                     A fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy is in
                     effect on the party participating in the servicing
                     function throughout the reporting period in the amount of
                     coverage required by and otherwise in accordance with the

                     Payments on mortgage loans are deposited into the
                     appropriate custodial bank accounts and related bank
                     clearing accounts no more than two business days
                     following receipt, or such other number of days specified

                     cash flows or distributions, and any interest or other
                     fees charged for such advances, are made, reviewed and

                     reserve accounts or accounts established as a form of
                     overcollateralization, are separately maintained (e.g.,
                     with respect to commingling of cash) as set forth in the
1122(d)(2)(iv)       transaction agreements.

                     insured depository institution as set forth in the
                     transaction agreements. For purposes of this criterion,
                     "federally insured depository institution" with respect
                     to a foreign financial institution means a foreign
                     financial institution that meets the requirements of Rule
1122(d)(2)(v)        13k-1(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act.

                     Unissued checks are safeguarded so as to prevent
