     (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement
(including, without limitation, the "Transaction Conditions Precedent" specified
in Section 3(b) of this Agreement), an agreement to enter into a Transaction
shall be made in writing at the initiation of Seller as provided below;
provided, however, that (i) the aggregate Repurchase Price (excluding the Price
Differential with respect to the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans as of
the date of determination) for all Transactions shall not exceed the Facility
Amount and (ii) the Buyer shall not have any obligation to enter into
Transactions with the Seller after the Business Day prior to the three year
anniversary date of the date of the Agreement. Seller shall give Buyer written
notice of each proposed Transaction, including (x) designation of any assets
during the CDO Ramp-Up Period as CDO Eligible Assets or Non-CDO Eligible Assets
and (y) with respect to any CDO Eligible Assets during the CDO Ramp-Up Period,
Seller's election of the Original Purchase Percentage as defined for such asset
(i.e., an Original Purchase Percentage equal to 77% or as specified for the
applicable Rating Category or Collateral Type Grouping in Schedule I attached to
this Agreement); provided, that, with respect to any CDO Eligible Asset during
the CDO Ramp-Up Period, if Seller elects an Original Purchase Percentage equal
to 77% instead of the "Original Purchase Percentage" specified for the
applicable Rating Category or Collateral Type Grouping in Schedule I attached to
this Agreement, then Seller shall be obligated to meet the requirements set
forth in Section 12(r) of this Agreement. Any assets designated as CDO Eligible
Assets by Seller shall conform (in approximate terms as acceptable to Buyer) to
the parameters set forth in Schedule II attached to this Agreement. Buyer shall
inform Seller of Buyer's determination with respect to any assets proposed to be
sold to Buyer by Seller solely in accordance with Exhibit VIII attached hereto.
Buyer shall have the right to review all Eligible Loans and Eligible Securities
proposed to be sold to Buyer in any Transaction and to conduct its own due
diligence investigation of such Eligible Loans and Eligible Securities as Buyer
reasonably determines. Buyer shall be entitled to make a determination, in the
exercise of its good faith business judgment, that it shall or shall not
purchase any or all of the assets proposed to be sold to Buyer by Seller. On the
Purchase Date for the Transaction which shall be not less than three (3)
Business Days following the approval of an Eligible Loan or an Eligible Security
by the Buyer in accordance with Exhibit VIII hereto, the Purchased Securities
shall be transferred to Buyer or its agent against the transfer of the Purchase
Price to an account of Seller.

     (b) Upon Buyer agreeing to enter into a Transaction hereunder, provided
each of the Transaction Conditions Precedent (as hereinafter defined) shall have
been satisfied (or waived by Buyer), Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller a
written confirmation in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto of each
Transaction (a "Confirmation"). Such Confirmation shall describe the Purchased
Securities (including CUSIP number, if any) and/or Purchased Loans, shall
identify Buyer and Seller, and shall set forth:

          (i)    the Purchase Date,

          (ii)   the Purchase Price for such Purchased Securities and/or
                 Purchased Loans,

          (iv)  the Pricing Rate (including the Applicable Spread) applicable
                to the Transaction (with respect to CDO Eligible Assets, during
                and after the CDO Ramp-Up Period, as applicable),

          (v)   the Buyer's Margin Percentage (with respect to any CDO Eligible
                Asset during the CDO Ramp-Up Period, both the Buyer's Margin
                Percentage during the CDO Ramp-Up Period and after the CDO
                Ramp-Up Period),

          (vi)  solely with respect to CDO Eligible Assets for which a 77%
                Original Purchase Percentage is elected, the amount (which may
                be set forth in an attachment to such Confirmation) required to
                be deposited into the Securities Account or provided as a
                Letter of Credit, and

          (vii) any additional terms or conditions not inconsistent with this
                Agreement. With respect to any Transaction, the Pricing Rate
                shall be determined initially on the Pricing Rate Determination
                Date applicable to the first Pricing Rate Period for such
                Transaction, and shall be reset on each Reset Date for the next
                succeeding Pricing Rate Period for such Transaction. Buyer or
                its agent shall determine in accordance with the terms of this
                Agreement the Pricing Rate on each Pricing Rate Determination
                Date for the related Pricing Rate Period and notify Seller of
                such rate for such period on the Reset Date. For purposes of
                this Section 3(b), the "Transaction Conditions Precedent" shall
                be deemed to have been satisfied with respect to any proposed
                Transaction if:

               (A) no Default or Event of Default under this Agreement shall
          have occurred and be continuing as of the Purchase Date for such
          proposed Transaction;

               (B) Seller shall have certified to Buyer in writing the
          acquisition cost of such Assets (including therein reasonable
          supporting documentation required by the Buyer, if any);

               (C) the representations and warranties made by Seller in any of
          the Transaction Documents shall be true and correct in all material
          respects as of the Purchase Date for such Transaction (except to the
          extent such representations and warranties are made as of a particular
          date);

               (D) Buyer shall have (A) determined, in accordance with the
          applicable provisions of Section 3(a) of this Agreement, that the
          Assets proposed to be sold to Buyer by Seller in such Transaction are
          Eligible Securities and/or Eligible Loans and (B) obtained internal
          credit approval for the inclusion of such Eligible Securities and/or
          Eligible Loans as Purchased Securities and/or Purchased Loans in a
          Transaction and that following the consummation of the proposed
          Transaction, the Concentration Limit shall be satisfied;


                                       23


               (E) Seller shall have paid to Buyer the Usage Fee due and payable
          (which amount, upon the agreement of Buyer and Seller, may be held
          back from funds remitted to Seller by Buyer); and

               (F) with respect to any proposed Transaction for Securities in
          the event the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller owns the Related
          Securities, the Seller shall have caused ownership of the Related
          Securities to be transferred to the Seller simultaneous with or prior
          to the purchase of the Purchased Securities by Buyer and delivered to
          the Buyer a power of attorney, bond powers and any other documentation
          reasonably required by the Buyer sufficient to permit the Buyer upon
          the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to
          register the transfer of the Related Securities from Seller to Buyer
          or its designee.

     (c) Each Confirmation, together with this Agreement, shall be conclusive
evidence of the terms of the Transaction(s) covered thereby unless specific
objection is made no less than three (3) Business Days after the date thereof.
In the event of any conflict between the terms of such Confirmation and the
terms of this Agreement, the Confirmation shall prevail. An objection with
respect to any Confirmation must state specifically that the writing is an
objection, must specify the provision(s) of such Confirmation being objected to
by Seller, must set forth such provision(s) in the manner that the Seller
believes such provisions should be stated, and must be received by Buyer no more
than three (3) Business Days after such Confirmation is received by Seller.

     (d) No Transaction shall be terminable on demand by Buyer (other than upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default by Seller).
Seller shall be entitled to terminate a Transaction in whole or in part on
demand and repurchase all or a portion of the Purchased Securities and/or
Purchased Loans subject to a Transaction on any Business Day prior to the
Repurchase Date (an "Early Repurchase Date"); provided, however, that:

          (i)    Seller repurchases on such Early Repurchase Date, all or the
                 applicable portion of the Purchased Securities and/or Purchased
                 Loans subject to such Transaction which Seller has elected to
                 repurchase,

          (ii)   Seller notifies Buyer in writing of its intent to terminate
                 such Transaction and repurchase such Purchased Securities
                 and/or Purchased Loans no later than five (5) Business Days
                 prior to such Early Repurchase Date,

          (iii)  on such Early Repurchase Date Seller pays to Buyer an amount
                 equal to the sum of the Repurchase Price for such Transaction
                 (or, in the case of a termination of a Transaction in part an
                 amount acceptable to the Buyer in the exercise of its good
                 faith business judgment but not more than such Repurchase
                 Price), the Exit Fee, if any, and any other amounts payable
                 under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section
                 3(i) of this Agreement) with respect to such Transaction
                 against transfer to the Seller or its agent of such Purchased
                 Securities and/or Purchased Loans, and

                                       24



          (iv)   on such Early Repurchase Date, in addition to the amounts set
                 forth in subclause (iii) above, Seller pays to Buyer, on
                 account of each Purchased Security or Purchased Loan not
                 subject to termination, an amount sufficient to reduce the
                 Repurchase Price for each Purchased Security and each Purchased
                 Loan to the Target Price for each such Purchased Security and
                 Purchased Loan.

Such notice shall set forth the Early Repurchase Date and shall identify with
particularity the Purchased Securities and/or Purchased Loans to be repurchased
on such Early Repurchase Date.

     (e) On the Repurchase Date, termination of the Transactions will be
effected by transfer to Seller or its agent of the Purchased Securities and
Purchased Loans and any Income in respect thereof received by Buyer (and not
previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations of, Seller
pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement) against the simultaneous transfer of
the Repurchase Price to an account of Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
provided all of the Extension Conditions (as hereinafter defined) shall have
been satisfied, the Repurchase Date shall be extended with respect to all of the
Transactions until the first (1st) anniversary of the originally scheduled
Repurchase Date (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding
Business Day) (all of the other terms and conditions of such Transactions
remaining the same). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "Extension
Conditions" shall be deemed to have been satisfied if:

          (i)    Seller shall have given Buyer written notice, not less than
                 thirty (30) days prior to the originally scheduled Repurchase
                 Date, of Seller's desire to extend the Repurchase Date;
                 provided; that if Seller fails to give such notice, the Seller
                 shall be deemed to have notified Buyer of its desire to extend
                 the originally scheduled Repurchase Date,

          (ii)   no Default or Event of Default under this Agreement shall have
                 occurred and be continuing as of the originally scheduled
                 Repurchase Date,

          (iii)  Seller shall have paid Buyer an extension fee in an amount
                 equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the aggregate
                 outstanding Repurchase Price of all Transactions as of the
                 Business Day prior to the originally scheduled Repurchase Date,
                 and

          (iv)   on the originally scheduled Repurchase Date, in addition to the
                 amounts set forth in subclause (iii) above, Seller pays to
                 Buyer, on account of each Purchased Security or Purchased Loan,
                 an amount sufficient to reduce the Repurchase Price for each
                 Purchased Security and each Purchased Loan to the Target Price
                 for each such Purchased Security and Purchased Loan.

In the event the Repurchase Date is extended pursuant to this Section 3(e) of
this Agreement, then Seller shall be required to terminate all Transactions in
part (without the payment of any Exit Fee if the termination payment is not made
in connection with an Early Repurchase Date) by paying 25%, 50% and 75% of the
aggregate outstanding Repurchase Price, determined as of the Business Day prior
to the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement, by not later than

                                       25


the later of the Remittance Dates occurring in March, June and September 2008,
respectively (including, without limitation, by terminating Transactions on
demand on Early Repurchase Dates pursuant to Section 3(d))and by paying any
unpaid portion of the Repurchase Price of all Transactions on the Repurchase
Date.

     (f)

          (i)  On the last day of the CDO Ramp-Up Period, Seller shall pay Buyer
               a usage fee (a "Usage Fee") in an amount equal to 0.60% of the
               Purchase Price specified in the related Confirmation with respect
               to each Transaction consummated during the CDO Ramp-Up Period
               where the related Purchased Loan or Purchased Security was not
               included in a DBSI CDO. After the CDO Ramp-Up Period, on each
               Purchase Date, Seller shall pay Buyer a Usage Fee in an amount
               equal to 0.60% of the Purchase Price specified in the related
               Confirmation with respect to such Transaction. If a DBSI CDO is
               consummated during the CDO Ramp-Up Period and Sponsor or its
               Affiliate is obligated to pay to Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc.
               any structuring and placement fees in connection therewith,
               Sponsor or its Affiliate, as applicable, shall be entitled to
               credit any Usage Fees (as defined in the Original Repurchase
               Agreement) paid under the Original Repurchase Agreement during
               the period from December 21, 2004 through the date of this
               Agreement against such structuring and placement fees.

          (ii) Seller shall pay Buyer the Exit Fee with respect to any
               Transaction which is terminated for any reason (other than an
               Event of Default on the part of the Buyer) prior to the
               Repurchase Date; provided, that the Exit Fee shall be waived by
               the Buyer if the reason for the termination is (1) principal
               payments (including prepayments and repayments) received on the
               related Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans (whether at
               maturity or otherwise), (2) the related Purchased Securities or
               Purchased Loans are simultaneously included in a DBSI CDO, (3)
               the Market Value determined by the Buyer for such Purchased
               Securities or Purchased Loans has decreased by more than 25% from
               such Market Value as of the related Purchase Date or (4) if the
               DBSI CDO is not consummated during the CDO Ramp-Up Period and
               Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc. has terminated its engagement to
               underwrite a DBSI CDO on or before the end of the CDO Ramp-Up
               Period.

     (g) If prior to the first day of any Pricing Rate Period with respect to
any Transaction, (i) Buyer shall have determined in the exercise of its
reasonable business judgment (which determination shall be conclusive and
binding upon Seller) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant
market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO
Rate for such Pricing Rate Period, or (ii) the LIBO Rate determined or to be
determined for such Pricing Rate Period will not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to Buyer (as determined and certified by Buyer) of making or
maintaining Transactions during such Pricing Rate Period, Buyer shall give
telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Seller as soon as


                                       26


practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, the Pricing Rate with respect
to such Transaction for such Pricing Rate Period, and for any subsequent Pricing
Rate Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be a per annum
rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus the Applicable Spread (the
"Alternative Rate").

     (h) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any
change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof
shall make it unlawful for Buyer to effect Transactions as contemplated by the
Transaction Documents, (a) the commitment of Buyer hereunder to enter into new
Transactions and to continue Transactions as such shall forthwith be canceled,
and (b) the Transactions then outstanding shall be converted automatically to
Alternative Rate Transactions on the last day of the then current Pricing Rate
Period or within such earlier period as may be required by law. If any such
conversion of a Transaction occurs on a day which is not the last day of the
then current Pricing Rate Period with respect to such Transaction, Seller shall
pay to Buyer such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3(i)
of this Agreement.

     (i) Upon demand by Buyer, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer
harmless from any net actual, out-of-pocket loss or expense (not to include any
lost profit or opportunity) (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements) which Buyer may sustain or incur as a
consequence of (i) default by the Seller in terminating any Transaction after
the Seller has given a notice in accordance with Section 3(d) of a termination
of a Transaction, (ii) any payment of the Repurchase Price on any day other than
a Remittance Date or the Repurchase Date (including, without limitation, any
such reasonable actual, out-of-pocket loss or expense arising from the
reemployment of funds obtained by Buyer to maintain Transactions hereunder or
from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained)
or (iii) a default by Seller in selling Eligible Securities after Seller has
notified Buyer of a proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed to purchase such
Eligible Securities in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. A
certificate as to such costs, losses, damages and expenses, setting forth the
calculations therefor shall be submitted promptly by Buyer to Seller and shall
be prima facie evidence of the information set forth therein.

     (j) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or
compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction over Buyer made subsequent to the date hereof:

          (i)    shall subject Buyer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
                 respect to the Transaction Documents, any Purchased Security or
                 Purchased Loan or any Transaction, or change the basis of
                 taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof (except for
                 income taxes and any changes in the rate of tax on Buyer's
                 overall net income);

          (ii)   shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
                 deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets
                 held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account
                 of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any
                 other acquisition of funds by, any office of


                                       27


                 Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of
                 the LIBO Rate hereunder; or

          (iii)  shall impose on Buyer any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an
amount which Buyer deems, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment,
to be material, of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions or to
reduce any amount receivable under the Transaction Documents in respect thereof;
then, in any such case, Seller shall promptly pay Buyer, upon its demand, any
additional amounts necessary to compensate Buyer for such increased cost or
reduced amount receivable. If Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 3(j), it shall, within ten (10) Business Days
of such event, notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so
entitled. Such notification as to the calculation of any additional amounts
payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller and
shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts. This covenant shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase by Seller of any or
all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans.

     (k) If Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in
any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or
application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer
with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having
the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date
hereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer's
or such corporation's capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a
level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for
such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer's or such
corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by
Buyer, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, to be material, then
from time to time, after submission by Buyer to Seller of a written request
therefor, Seller shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate Buyer for such reduction. Such notification as to the calculation of
any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by
Buyer to Seller and shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts.
This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repurchase
by Seller of any or all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans.

     (a) Seller shall have the right, from time to time and without the payment
of any Exit Fee, to transfer cash to Buyer for the purpose of reducing the
Repurchase Price on, but not terminating, a Transaction for a Purchased Security
or Purchased Loan on a date before the Repurchase Date; provided that, any Exit
Fee required to be paid in connection with a repurchase on an Early Repurchase
Date of a Purchased Security or Purchased Loan previously subject to any
Repurchase Price reduction pursuant to this Section 3(l) shall be calculated by
using the Repurchase Price calculated without regard to any reduction pursuant
to this Section 3(l) of this Agreement.


                                       28


4.   MARGIN MAINTENANCE

     (a) If, at any time (including, with respect to any Purchased Security or
Purchased Loan, by way of failure of any of the representations and warranties
set forth in Section 10(B)(vii), (ix) or (xx) (in the case of clause (xx), with
respect to the affected Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans only)), the
Market Value of any of the Purchased Securities or any of the Purchased Loans
shall be less than the Buyer's Margin Amount for such Purchased Securities or
Purchased Loans, respectively (a "Margin Deficit"), then Buyer may by notice to
Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer (without the payment of any Exit Fee)
(A) cash or (B) additional collateral acceptable to Buyer in its sole and
absolute discretion, so that the sum obtained by adding the Market Value of each
of the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans for which a Margin Deficit exists
plus such cash and additional collateral shall equal or exceed the Deficit Cure
Amount for such Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans, respectively, as of the
same date. Seller's failure to cure any Margin Deficit as required by the
preceding sentence shall constitute an Event of Default under the Transaction
Documents and shall entitle Buyer to exercise its remedies under Section 14 of
this Agreement (including, without limitation, the liquidation remedy provided
for in Section 14(a)(iv) of this Agreement).

     (b) If any time the Market Value of any Purchased Security in any Rating
Category or Purchased Loan in any Collateral Type Grouping multiplied by the
"Original Purchase Percentage" for such Rating Category or such Collateral Type
Grouping (or in the case of a CDO Eligible Asset during the CDO Ramp-Up Period,
the Original Purchase Percentage equal to 77%, if so elected by Seller) as such
Original Purchase Percentage may be adjusted in accordance with this Agreement
shall be greater than the Repurchase Price for the Transaction relating to such
Purchased Security or Purchased Loan, respectively (a "Margin Excess") then
Seller may by notice to Buyer require Buyer to transfer to Seller cash in an
amount (expressed in dollars) up to the Margin Excess; provided, that any such
transfer of cash (1) shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in the
parenthetical in and the proviso to the definition of "Purchase Price", (2)
shall not be in an amount less than $500,000 and (3) shall be evidenced by
amended and restated Confirmations.

     (c) If any notice is given by Buyer under Section 4(a) of this Agreement on
any Business Day, the Seller shall transfer cash or additional collateral as
provided in Section 4(a) by no later than seventy-two (72) hours after the
giving of such notice. Notice required pursuant to Section 4(a) of this
Agreement may be given by any means of telecopier or telegraphic transmission
and shall be delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The
failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights under
Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall not change or alter the terms and
conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer or
Seller to do so at a later date. Buyer and Seller agree that any failure or
delay by Buyer to exercise its rights under Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall
not limit such party's rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law
or in any way create additional rights for such party.

     (d) Any additional collateral transferred to Buyer pursuant to Section 4(a)
of this Agreement with respect to any Purchased Securities or any Purchased
Loans shall be attributed to increasing the aggregate Market Value of such
Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans, respectively, for which there was a
Margin Deficit. Any cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to


                                       29


Section 4(a) of this Agreement with respect to any Purchased Securities or any
Purchased Loans shall be attributed to decreasing the Repurchase Price for such
Purchased Security or Purchased Loan, respectively, for which there was a Margin
Deficit.

5.   INCOME PAYMENTS AND PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS

     (a) The Cash Management Account shall be established at the Depository
concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller and
Buyer. Buyer shall have sole dominion and control over the Cash Management
Account, which shall be an interest-bearing account as to which the Seller has
"view only" rights. All Income in respect of the Portfolio Collateral and any
payments in respect of associated Hedging Transactions, as well as any interest
received from the reinvestment of such Income, shall be deposited directly into
the Cash Management Account and shall be remitted by the Depository in
accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 5(b), 5(c), 5(d), 5(e),
5(f) and 14(a)(i) of this Agreement.

     (b) With respect to Purchased Loans, Seller shall deliver to each
Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower under a Purchased Loan an
irrevocable direction letter in the form attached as Exhibit IX to this
Agreement instructing the Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower to
pay all amounts payable under the related Purchased Loan to the Cash Management
Account and shall provide to Buyer proof of such delivery. If a Mortgagor,
issuer of a participation or borrower forwards any Income with respect to a
Purchased Loan to Seller rather than directly to the Cash Management Account,
Seller shall (i) deliver an additional irrevocable direction letter to the
applicable Mortgagor, issuer of a participation or borrower and make other
commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Mortgagor, issuer of a
participation or borrower to forward such amounts directly to the Cash
Management Account and (ii) immediately deposit in the Cash Management Account
any such amounts.

     (c) So long as no Event of Default or CF Sweep Event shall have occurred
and be continuing, all Income received by the Depository in respect of the
Portfolio Collateral and the associated Hedging Transactions (other than
Principal Payments and net sale proceeds) during each Collection Period shall be
applied by the Depository on the related Remittance Date as follows:

          (i)    first, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price
                 Differential which has accrued and is outstanding as of such
                 Remittance Date;

          (ii)   second, to remit to counterparties of the associated Hedging
                 Transactions an amount equal to the payments required, if any,
                 on such associated Hedging Transactions as of the such
                 Remittance Date; and

          (iii)  third, to remit to Seller the remainder, if any.

     (d) So long as no Event of Default or CF Sweep Event shall have occurred
and be continuing, any Principal Payment and any net sale proceeds in excess of
the related Repurchase Price in respect of any Portfolio Collateral which is a
portion of the Income received by the Depository during each Collection Period
shall be applied by the Depository on the related Remittance Date in the
following order of priority:


                                       30


          (i)    first, to make a payment to Buyer on account of the Repurchase
                 Price of the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans in respect
                 of which such Principal Payment has been received, until the
                 Repurchase Price for such Purchased Securities or Purchased
                 Loans has been reduced to the Target Price for such Purchased
                 Securities or Purchased Loans, respectively as of the date of
                 such payment (as determined by Buyer after giving effect to
                 such Principal Payment);

          (ii)   second, to make a payment on account of the Repurchase Price of
                 any other Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans as to which
                 the Repurchase Price exceeds the Target Price (for this
                 purpose, making such payment in the order of those Purchased
                 Securities or Purchased Loans with the largest to smallest
                 excess of Repurchase Price over Target Price), until the
                 aggregate Repurchase Price for all of such Purchased Securities
                 or Purchased Loans has been reduced to the aggregate Target
                 Price for all of the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans,
                 respectively as of the date of such payment (as determined by
                 Buyer after giving effect to such Principal Payment and
                 application of net sale proceeds); and

          (iii)  third, to remit to Seller the remainder of such Principal
                 Payment or net sale proceeds.

     (e) If a CF Sweep Event shall have occurred and be continuing, all Income
(including Principal Payments and any net sale proceeds in excess of the related
Repurchase Price) received by the Depository in respect of the Portfolio
Collateral and the associated Hedging Transactions during each Collection Period
shall be applied by the Depository on the related Remittance Date in the
following order of priority:

          (i)    first, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price
                 Differential which has accrued and is outstanding in respect of
                 all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans as of such
                 Business Day;

          (ii)   second, to make a payment to Buyer on account of the Repurchase
                 Price of the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans in respect
                 of which such CF Sweep Event occurred, until the Repurchase
                 Price for such Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans has been
                 reduced to the amount (expressed in dollars) obtained by
                 multiplying (i) the Market Value of such Purchased Securities
                 or Purchased Loans as of such date by (ii) the "CF Sweep
                 Purchase Percentage" applicable to such Purchased Securities or
                 Purchased Loans, as set forth in Schedule I attached to this
                 Agreement, respectively as of the date of such payment (as
                 determined by Buyer after giving effect to such Principal
                 Payment and application of net sale proceeds);

          (iii)  third, to make a payment on account of the Repurchase Price of
                 any other Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans as to which a
                 CF Sweep Event shall have occurred (for this purpose, making
                 such payment in the order of


                                       31


                 those Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans whose Repurchase
                 Price exceeds the product of the related Market Value by the
                 related "CF Purchase Sweep Percentage" by the largest to
                 smallest excess), until the aggregate Repurchase Price for all
                 of such Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans has been
                 reduced to the amount (expressed in dollars) obtained by
                 multiplying (i) the Market Value of such Purchased Securities
                 or Purchased Loans as of such date by (ii) the "CF Sweep
                 Purchase Percentage" applicable to such Purchased Securities or
                 Purchased Loans, as set forth in Schedule I attached to this
                 Agreement, respectively as of the date of such payment (as
                 determined by Buyer after giving effect to such Principal
                 Payment and application of net sale proceeds);

          (iv)   fourth, to make a payment to Buyer on account of the Repurchase
                 Price of the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans in respect
                 of which such Principal Payment has been received, until the
                 Repurchase Price for such Purchased Securities or Purchased
                 Loans has been reduced to the Target Price for such Purchased
                 Securities or Purchased Loans, respectively as of the date of
                 such payment (as determined by Buyer after giving effect to
                 such Principal Payment and application of net sale proceeds);

          (v)    fifth, to make a payment on account of the Repurchase Price of
                 any other Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans as to which
                 the Repurchase Price exceeds the Target Price (for this
                 purpose, making such payment in the order of those Purchased
                 Securities or Purchased Loans with the largest to smallest
                 excess of Repurchase Price over Target Price), until the
                 aggregate Repurchase Price for all of such Purchased Securities
                 or Purchased Loans has been reduced to the aggregate Target
                 Price for all of the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans,
                 respectively as of the date of such payment (as determined by
                 Buyer after giving effect to such Principal Payment and
                 application of net sale proceeds);

          (vi)   sixth, to remit to counterparties of the associated Hedging
                 Transactions an amount equal to the payments required, if any,
                 on such associated Hedging Transactions as of such Business
                 Day; and

          (vii)  seventh, to remit to Seller the remainder.

     (f) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all
Income received by the Depository in respect of the Portfolio Collateral and the
associated Hedging Transactions shall be applied by the Depository on the
Business Day next following the Business Day on which such funds are deposited
in the Cash Management Account as follows:

          (i)    first, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price
                 Differential which has accrued and is outstanding in respect of
                 all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans as of such
                 Business Day;


                                       32


          (ii)   second, to make a payment to Buyer on account of the Repurchase
                 Price of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans until the
                 Repurchase Price for all of the Purchased Securities and all of
                 the Purchased Loans has been reduced to zero;

          (iii)  third, to remit to counterparties of the associated Hedging
                 Transactions an amount equal to the payments required, if any,
                 on such associated Hedging Transactions as of such Business
                 Day; and

          (iv)   fourth, to remit to Seller the remainder.

6.   SECURITY INTEREST

     The Buyer and Seller intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales to the
Buyer of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans and not loans from the
Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans.
However, in the event any such Transaction is deemed to be a loan, Seller hereby
pledges all of its right, title, and interest in, to and under and grants a
first priority lien on, and security interest in, all of the following property,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created and
wherever located (collectively, the "Collateral") to the Buyer to secure the
payment and performance of all other amounts or obligations owing to the Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement and the related documents described herein:

     (a) the Purchased Securities and all "securities accounts" (as defined in
Section 8-501(a) of the UCC) to which any or all of the Purchased Securities are
credited;

     (b) the Purchased Loans, Purchased Loan Documents, Servicing Agreements,
Servicing Records, insurance relating to the Purchased Loans, and collection and
escrow accounts relating to the Purchased Loans;

     (c) the Hedging Transactions;

     (d) the Cash Management Account and all monies from time to time on deposit
in the Cash Management Account;

     (e) all "general intangibles", "accounts" and "chattel paper" as defined in
the UCC relating to or constituting any and all of the foregoing; and

     (f) all replacements, substitutions or distributions on or proceeds,
payments, Income and profits of, and records (but excluding any financial models
or other proprietary information) and files relating to any and all of any of
the foregoing.

     The Buyer's security interest in the Collateral shall terminate only upon
termination of the Seller's obligations under this Agreement and the documents
delivered in connection herewith and therewith. Upon such termination, Buyer
shall deliver to Seller such UCC termination statements and other release
documents as may be commercially reasonable and to return the Portfolio
Collateral to Seller. For purposes of the grant of the security interest
pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed to
constitute a security


                                       33


agreement under the New York Uniform Commercial Code (the "UCC"). Buyer shall
have all of the rights and may exercise all of the remedies of a secured
creditor under the UCC and the other laws of the State of New York. In
furtherance of the foregoing, (a) Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall
cause to be filed in such locations as may be necessary to perfect and maintain
perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby, UCC financing
statements and continuation statements (collectively, the "Filings"), and shall
forward copies of such Filings to Buyer upon completion thereof, and (b) Seller
shall from time to time take such further actions as may be reasonably requested
by Buyer to maintain and continue the perfection and priority of the security
interest granted hereby (including marking its records and files to evidence the
interests granted to Buyer hereunder).

7.   PAYMENT, TRANSFER AND CUSTODY

     (a) On the Purchase Date for each Transaction, ownership of the Portfolio
Securities and/or Purchased Loans shall be transferred to Buyer or its designee
(including the Custodian) against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase
Price to an account of Seller specified in the Confirmation relating to such
Transaction.

     (b) On or prior to the applicable Purchase Date, the Seller shall deliver
the related Portfolio Securities re-registered in the name of the Buyer or other
designee of the Buyer in accordance with the Custodial Agreement and the Buyer
or its other designee shall have all rights of conversions, exchange,
subscription and any other rights, privileges and options pertaining to such
Portfolio Securities as the owner thereof, and in connection therewith, the
right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Portfolio Securities with any
committee, depositary transfer, agent, register or other designated agency upon
such terms and conditions as the Buyer may determine. The Portfolio Securities
shall be held by the Buyer or its designee, as exclusive bailee and agent for
the Buyer, either directly or through the facilities of a Relevant System, as
"securities intermediary" (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the UCC and 31
C.F.R. Section 357.2) and credited to the "securities account" (as defined in
Section 8-501(a) of the UCC) of the Buyer. The Buyer, as "entitlement holder"
(as defined in Section 8-102(a)(7) of the UCC) with respect to the Portfolio
Securities, shall be entitled to receive all cash dividends and distributions
paid in respect thereof. Any such dividends or distributions with respect to the
Portfolio Securities received by the Seller shall be promptly remitted to the
Cash Management Account.

     (c) With respect to Portfolio Securities that shall be delivered or held in
uncertificated form and the ownership of which is registered on books maintained
by the issuer thereof or its transfer agent, the Seller shall cause the
registration of such security or other item of investment property in the name
of Buyer or its designee and at the request of the Buyer, shall take such other
and further steps, and shall execute and deliver such documents or instruments
necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Buyer, to effect a legally valid
transfer to Buyer hereunder. With respect to Portfolio Securities that shall be
delivered or held in definitive, certificated form, the Seller shall deliver to
the Buyer or its designee (which shall be the Custodian initially) the original
of the relevant certificate registered in the name of the Buyer or its designee.
Unless otherwise instructed by Buyer, any delivery of a security or other item
of investment property in definitive, certificated form shall be made to the
Custodian. With respect to Portfolio Securities that shall be delivered through
a Relevant System in book entry form and credited to or otherwise held in a
securities account, the Seller shall take such actions necessary to provide

instruction to the relevant financial institution or other entity, which
instruction shall be sufficient if complied with to register the transfer of
Portfolio Securities from Seller to Buyer or its designee. In connection with
any account to which the Portfolio Securities are credited or otherwise held,

the name, or possession, of Seller or any of its agents or in any securities
account in the name of Seller or any of its agents.

     (d) Except to the extent waived by Buyer in its sole discretion, as a

                 in favor of Buyer a valid perfected first priority security
                 interest in such Purchased Securities.

agreed in writing, in the form of an annex hereto or otherwise, in advance of
any Transaction by the other party hereto, as agent for a disclosed principal),
(iii) the person signing this Agreement on its behalf is duly authorized to do
so on its behalf (or on behalf of any such disclosed principal), (iv) it has
obtained all authorizations of any governmental body required in connection with
this Agreement and the Transactions hereunder and such authorizations are in
full force and effect and (v) the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the Transactions hereunder will not violate any law, ordinance or
rule applicable to it or its organizational documents or any agreement by which
it is bound or by which any of its assets are affected. On the Purchase Date for
any Transaction Buyer and Seller shall each be deemed to repeat all the
foregoing representations made by it.

     (b) In addition to the representations and warranties in subsection (a)
above, Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that as of the Purchase Date for
the purchase of any Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans by Buyer from Seller
and any Transaction thereunder and as of the date of this Agreement and at all
times while this Agreement and any Transaction thereunder is in full force and
effect:

          (i)    Organization. Seller is duly incorporated, validly existing and
                 in good standing under the laws and regulations of the state of
                 Seller's incorporation and is duly licensed, qualified, and in
                 good standing in every state where such licensing or
                 qualification is necessary for the transaction of Seller's
                 business. Seller has the power to own and hold the assets it
                 purports to own and hold, and to carry on its business as now
                 being conducted and proposed to be conducted, and has the power
                 to execute, deliver, and perform its obligations under this
                 Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

          (ii)   Due Execution; Enforceability. The Transaction Documents have
                 been or will be duly executed and delivered by Seller, for good
                 and valuable


                                       42


                 consideration. The Transaction Documents constitute the legal,
                 valid and binding obligations of Seller, enforceable against
                 Seller in accordance with their respective terms subject to
                 bankruptcy, insolvency, and other limitations on creditors'
                 rights generally and to equitable principles.

          (iii)  Non-Contravention. Neither the execution and delivery of the
                 Transaction Documents, nor consummation by Seller of the
                 transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (or any
                 of them), nor compliance by Seller with the terms, conditions
                 and provisions of the Transaction Documents (or any of them)
                 will conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms,
                 conditions or provisions of (i) the Memorandum and Articles of
                 Association or similar organizational documents of Seller, (ii)
                 any contractual obligation to which Seller is now a party or
                 the rights under which have been assigned to Seller or the
                 obligations under which have been assumed by Seller or to which
                 the assets of Seller are subject or constitute a default
                 thereunder, or result thereunder in the creation or imposition
                 of any lien upon any of the assets of Seller, other than
                 pursuant to the Transaction Documents, (iii) any judgment or
                 order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any court
                 applicable to Seller, or (iv) any applicable Requirement of
                 Law, in the case of clauses (ii)-(iv) above, to the extent that
                 such conflict or breach would have a material adverse effect
                 upon Seller's ability to perform its obligations hereunder.
                 Seller has all necessary licenses, permits and other consents
                 from Governmental Authorities necessary to acquire, own and
                 sell the Portfolio Collateral and for the performance of its
                 obligations under the Transaction Documents.

          (iv)   Litigation; Requirements of Law. There is no action, suit,
                 proceeding, investigation, or arbitration pending or, to the
                 best knowledge of Seller, threatened against Seller, the
                 Sponsor or any of their respective assets, nor is there any
                 action, suit, proceeding, investigation, or arbitration pending
                 or threatened against the Sponsor which may result in any
                 material adverse change in the business, operations, financial
                 condition, properties, or assets of Seller or the Sponsor, or
                 which may have an adverse effect on the validity of the
                 Transaction Documents or the Purchased Securities or any action
                 taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of
                 Seller under any of the Transaction Documents. Seller is in
                 compliance in all material respects with all Requirements of
                 Law. Neither Seller nor the Sponsor is in default in any
                 material respect with respect to any judgment, order, writ,
                 injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any arbitrator or
                 Governmental Authority.

          (v)    No Broker. Seller has not dealt with any broker, investment
                 banker, agent, or other Person (other than Buyer or an
                 Affiliate of Buyer) who may be entitled to any commission or
                 compensation in connection with the sale of Purchased
                 Securities pursuant to any of the Transaction Documents.


                                       43


          (vi)   Good Title to Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans.
                 Immediately prior to the purchase of any Purchased Securities
                 or Purchased Loans by Buyer from Seller, such Purchased
                 Securities and Purchased Loans are free and clear of any lien,
                 encumbrance or impediment to transfer (including any "adverse
                 claim" as defined in Section 8-102(a)(1) of the UCC), and
                 Seller is the record and beneficial owner of and has good and
                 marketable title to and the right to sell and transfer such
                 Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans to Buyer and, upon
                 transfer of such Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans to
                 Buyer, Buyer shall be the owner of such Purchased Securities
                 and Purchased Loans free of any adverse claim, subject to the
                 rights of Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In
                 the event the related Transaction is recharacterized as a
                 secured financing of the Purchased Securities or Purchased
                 Loans, the provisions of this Agreement are effective to create
                 in favor of the Buyer a valid security interest in all rights,
                 title and interest of the Seller in, to and under the
                 Collateral and the Buyer shall have a valid, perfected first
                 priority security interest in the Purchased Securities or
                 Purchased Loans (and without limitation on the foregoing, the
                 Buyer, as entitlement holder, shall have a "security
                 entitlement" to the Purchased Securities).

          (vii)  No Default. No Default or Event of Default exists under or with
                 respect to the Transaction Documents.

          (viii) Representations in Securitization Documents. All of the
                 Purchased Securities have been validly issued and are fully
                 paid and non-assessable and not subject to preemptive rights
                 and have been offered, issued and sold in compliance with all
                 Requirements of Law. To the extent that an Affiliate of the
                 Seller is a party thereto, the Securitization Documents are
                 genuine, in full force and effect and the legal, valid and
                 binding obligation of such Affiliate enforceable in accordance
                 with their terms. The Securitization Documents have not been
                 altered or modified in any material respect, except as
                 disclosed to the Buyer in writing. The Seller has not waived
                 the performance of any action or any default, breach or
                 violation resulting from action or inaction under a
                 Securitization Document and has not been made aware of any such
                 waiver. Except as disclosed to the Buyer in writing, there is
                 no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing
                 under a Securitization Document and no event has occurred
                 which, with the passage of time or giving of notice or both and
                 the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a
                 default, breach, violation or event of acceleration thereunder.
                 Each Purchased Security is freely assignable and the related
                 Securitization Document permits the Seller to sell, assign or
                 pledge such Purchased Security.

          (ix)   Representations and Warranties Regarding Purchased Loans;
                 Delivery of Purchased Loan File. Seller represents and warrants
                 to the Buyer that each Purchased Loan sold hereunder and each
                 pool of Purchased Loans


                                       44


                 sold in a Transaction hereunder, as of each Purchase Date for a
                 Transaction conform to the applicable representations and
                 warranties set forth in Exhibit VI attached hereto, except as
                 disclosed to the Buyer in writing. It is understood and agreed
                 that the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit VI
                 hereto, if any, shall survive delivery of the respective
                 Purchased Loan File to Buyer or its designee (including the
                 Custodian) to the extent permitted by applicable law. With
                 respect to each Purchased Loan, the Mortgage Note or Mezzanine
                 Note, the Mortgage (if any), the Assignment of Mortgage (if
                 any) and any other documents required to be delivered under
                 this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement for such Purchased
                 Loan have been delivered to the Buyer or the Custodian on its
                 behalf. Seller or its designee is in possession of a complete,
                 true and accurate Purchased Loan File with respect to each
                 Purchased Loan, except for such documents the originals of
                 which have been delivered to the Custodian.

          (x)    Adequate Capitalization; No Fraudulent Transfer. Seller has, as
                 of such Purchase Date, adequate capital for the normal
                 obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size
                 and character and in light of its contemplated business
                 operations. Seller is generally able to pay, and as of the date
                 hereof is paying, its debts as they come due. Seller has not
                 become, or is presently, financially insolvent nor will Seller
                 be made insolvent by virtue of Seller's execution of or
                 performance under any of the Transaction Documents within the
                 meaning of the bankruptcy laws or the insolvency laws of any
                 jurisdiction. Seller has not entered into any Transaction
                 Document or any Transaction pursuant thereto in contemplation
                 of insolvency or with intent to hinder, delay or defraud any
                 creditor.

          (xi)   Consents. No consent, approval or other action of, or filing by
                 Seller with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is
                 required to authorize, or is otherwise required in connection
                 with, the execution, delivery and performance of any of the
                 Transaction Documents (other than consents, approvals and
                 filings that have been obtained or made, as applicable).

          (xii)  Ownership. All of the membership interests in Seller are owned
                 directly by the Sponsor.

          (xiii) Organizational Documents. Seller has delivered to Buyer
                 certified copies of its organizational documents, together with
                 all amendments thereto, if any.

          (xiv)  No Encumbrances. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, there
                 are (i) no outstanding rights, options, warrants or agreements
                 on the part of Seller for a purchase, sale or issuance, in
                 connection with the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans,
                 (ii) no agreements on the part of the Seller to issue, sell or
                 distribute the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans,


                                       45


                 and (iii) no obligations on the part of the Seller (contingent
                 or otherwise) to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any
                 securities or any interest therein or to pay any dividend or
                 make any distribution in respect of the Purchased Securities.

          (xv)   Federal Regulations. Seller is not (A) required to register as
                 an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of
                 1940, as amended, or (B) a "holding company," or a "subsidiary
                 company of a holding company," or an "affiliate" of either a
                 "holding company" or a "subsidiary company of a holding
                 company," as such terms are defined in the Public Utility
                 Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

          (xvi)  Taxes. Seller has filed or caused to be filed all tax returns
                 which to the knowledge of Seller would be delinquent if they
                 had not been filed on or before the date hereof and has paid
                 all taxes shown to be due and payable on or before the date
                 hereof on such returns or on any assessments made against it or
                 any of its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges
                 imposed on it and any of its assets by any Governmental
                 Authority except for any such taxes as are being appropriately
                 contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently
                 conducted and with respect to which adequate reserves have been
                 provided in accordance with GAAP; no tax liens have been filed
                 against any of Seller's assets and, to Seller's knowledge, no
                 claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes, fees
                 or other charges.

          (xvii) ERISA. Seller does not have any Plans or any ERISA Affiliates
                 and makes no contributions to any Plans or any Multiemployer
                 Plans.

          (xviii) Judgments/Bankruptcy. Except as disclosed in writing to Buyer,
                 there are no judgments against Seller or the Sponsor
                 unsatisfied of record or docketed in any court located in the
                 United States of America and no Act of Insolvency has ever
                 occurred with respect to Seller or the Sponsor.

          (xix)  Full and Accurate Disclosure. No information contained in the
                 Transaction Documents, or any written statement furnished by
                 Seller pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents,
                 contains any untrue statement of a material fact or, to
                 Seller's knowledge, omits to state a material fact necessary to
                 make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading
                 in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

          (xx)   Financial Information. All financial data concerning Seller
                 and, to Seller's knowledge, the Purchased Securities and
                 Purchased Loans that has been delivered by or on behalf of
                 Seller to Buyer is true, complete and correct in all material
                 respects and has been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Since
                 the delivery of such data, except as otherwise disclosed in
                 writing to Buyer, there has been no change in the financial
                 position of Seller or the Purchased Securities and Purchased
                 Loans, or in the results of operations


                                       46


                 of Seller, which change is reasonably likely to have in a
                 material adverse effect on Seller.

          (xxi)  Notice Address; Jurisdiction of Organization. On the date of
                 this Agreement, the Seller's address for notices is located at
                 c/o NRFC Sub-REIT Corp., 527 Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y.
                 10022. Seller's jurisdiction of incorporation is Delaware. The
                 location where the Seller keeps its books and records,
                 including all computer tapes and records relating to the
                 Collateral, is its notice address.

have made all of the representations set forth in Section 10(b) of this
Agreement as of such Purchase Date.

lower than "above average" by Standard & Poor's Ratings Group to the extent
Seller controls or is entitled to control the selection of the special servicer.
In the event the special servicer rating with respect to any Person acting as
special servicer for any mortgage loans underlying Portfolio Securities shall be
below "above average" by Standard & Poor's Rating Group, or if an Act of
Insolvency occurs with respect to Seller or Sponsor, Buyer shall be entitled to
transfer special servicing with respect


                                       48


to all Portfolio Securities to an entity satisfactory to Buyer, to the extent
Seller controls or is entitled to control the selection of the special servicer.

     (f) With respect to each Purchased Security and Purchased Loan, Seller
shall maintain a hedging strategy (including swaps and other derivatives)
approved by Buyer in Buyer's good faith business judgment, enter into Hedging
Transactions acceptable to Buyer and, upon request of Buyer, provide evidence of
such strategy. Such Hedging Transaction shall be pledged to the Buyer as
collateral for the Transactions and may be marked to market from time to time by
Buyer.

     (g) Seller shall promptly (and in any event not later than two (2) Business
Days following receipt) deliver to Buyer (i) any notice of the occurrence of an
event of default under or report received by Seller pursuant to the
Securitization Documents; (ii) any notice of transfer of servicing under the
Securitization Documents and (iii) any other information with respect to the
Portfolio Collateral as may be reasonably requested by Buyer from time to time.

     (h) Seller will permit Buyer or its designated representative to inspect
Seller's records with respect to the Collateral and the conduct and operation of
its business related thereto upon reasonable prior written notice from Buyer or
its designated representative, at such reasonable times and with reasonable
frequency, and to make copies of extracts of any and all thereof, subject to the
terms of any confidentiality agreement between the Buyer and the Seller. Buyer
shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in requesting and conducting any
inspection relating to the conduct and operation of Seller's business.

     (i) If the Seller shall at any time become entitled to receive or shall
receive any rights, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion
of, or in exchange for the Portfolio Securities, or otherwise in respect
thereof, the Seller shall accept the same as the Buyer's agent, hold the same in
trust for the Buyer and deliver the same forthwith to the Buyer in the exact
form received, duly endorsed by the Seller to the Buyer, if required, together
with an undated bond power covering such certificate duly executed in blank to
be held by the Buyer hereunder as additional collateral security for the
Transactions. If any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect
of the Portfolio Securities shall be received by the Seller, the Seller shall,
until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Buyer, hold such money
or property in trust for the Buyer, segregated from other funds of the Seller,
as additional collateral security for the Transactions.

     (j) At any time from time to time upon the reasonable request of Buyer, at
the sole expense of Seller, Seller will promptly and duly execute and deliver
such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as Buyer
may reasonably request for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the full
benefits of this Agreement including the first priority security interest
granted hereunder and of the rights and powers herein granted (including, among
other things, filing such UCC financing statements as Buyer may reasonably
request). If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the
Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note, other instrument
or chattel paper, such note, instrument or chattel paper shall be immediately
delivered to the Buyer, duly endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the
Buyer, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, and the documents
delivered in connection herewith.


                                       49

                 certificate;

          (ii)   Within 90 days after the last day of its fiscal year, Sponsor's

                 with GAAP, and accompanied, in all cases, by an unqualified
                 report of a nationally recognized independent certified public

                 to Ernst & Young or any other national accounting firm selected
                 by NRFC GP);

          (iii)  Within 45 days after the last day of each calendar quarter in

                 addressed to Buyer certifying that, as of such calendar
                 quarter, (x) Seller is in compliance with all of the terms,
                 conditions and requirements of this Agreement, and (y) no Event

     (l) Seller shall at all times comply in all material respects with all
laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of any federal, state, municipal or
other public authority having jurisdiction over Seller or any of its assets and
Seller shall do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary to preserve

material to its business.

     (m) Seller shall at all times keep proper books of records and accounts in
which full, true and correct entries shall be made of its transactions in
accordance with GAAP and set aside on its books from its earnings for each
fiscal year all such proper reserves in accordance with GAAP.

     (n) Seller shall observe, perform and satisfy all the terms, provisions,
covenants and conditions required to be observed, performed or satisfied by it,
and shall pay when due all costs, fees and expenses required to be paid by it,
under the Transaction Documents. Seller shall pay and discharge all taxes,
levies, liens and other charges on its assets and on the Collateral that, in
each case, in any manner would create any lien or charge upon the Collateral,
except for any


                                       50


such taxes as are being appropriately contested in good faith by appropriate

     (o) Seller shall advise Buyer in writing of the opening of any new chief
executive office or the closing of any such office and of any change in Seller's
name or the places where the books and records pertaining to the Purchased
Securities are held not less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to taking any
such action.

     (p) Seller will maintain records with respect to the Collateral and the
conduct and operation of its business with no less a degree of prudence than if
the Collateral were held by Seller for its own account and will furnish Buyer,
upon reasonable request by Buyer or its designated representative, with
reasonable information reasonably obtainable by Seller with respect to the
Collateral and the conduct and operation of its business.

     (q) Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable access to operating

Loan or Purchased Security has the right to request under the related Purchased
Loan Documents or the Securitization Documents.

Purchase Price of all CDO Eligible Assets subject to an outstanding Transaction
and the Purchase Price of all such CDO Eligible Assets assuming that the
Original Purchase Percentage applied for the related Transaction were equal to
the respective Original Purchase Percentage in Schedule I of the Agreement.
Seller or Sponsor shall be able to withdraw or exchange amounts in such
Securities Account so long as at all times during the CDO Ramp-Up Period the
aggregate liquidation value of such Securities Account and Letters of Credit
equals the difference between the Purchase Price of all CDO Eligible Assets
subject to an outstanding Transaction and the Purchase Price of all such CDO
Eligible Assets assuming that the Original Purchase Percentage applied for the

Letters of Credit with respect to any Transaction for a CDO Eligible Asset shall
expire after the earlier of (i) the shift in the Original Purchase Percentage of
such Purchased Loan or Purchased Security to the related Original Purchase
Percentage set forth in Schedule I of the Agreement and the related complete
payment of any additional cash or collateral due to Buyer as a result of such
shift of the Original Purchase Percentage and (ii) the inclusion of such
Purchased Loan or Purchased Asset in a DBSI CDO. To the extent the Seller is
unable to voluntarily meet the requirements of this clause (r), Buyer may
require that the Seller commence marketing for sale or liquidation of any
outstanding Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans and apply the net sale or
liquidation proceeds to meet the requirements of this clause (r).


                                       51

14.  EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES

     After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Seller hereby appoints Buyer as attorney-in-fact of Seller for the purpose of
carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and
executing or endorsing any instruments that Buyer may deem necessary or
advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as
attorney-


                                       53


in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. An "Event of Default" under
this Agreement shall be deemed to have occurred and be continuing in the event
that:

          (i)    Seller fails to repurchase or Buyer fails to transfer Purchased
                 Securities or Purchased Loans upon the applicable Repurchase
                 Date;

          (ii)   Seller or Buyer fails to comply with Section 4 hereof;

          (vi)   either (A) the Transaction Documents shall for any reason not
                 cause, or shall cease to cause, Buyer to be the owner free of
                 any adverse claim of any of the Purchased Securities or
                 Purchased Loans, or (B) if a Transaction is recharacterized as
                 a secured financing, the Transaction Documents with respect to
                 any Transaction shall for any reason cease to create a valid
                 first priority security interest in favor of Buyer in any of
                 the Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans;

          (vii)  in the event that the Buyer or any of its Affiliates is a party
                 to an ISDA Master Agreement with Seller and an event occurs
                 which would constitute an Event of Default, a Termination Event
                 or an Additional Termination Event under any Transaction
                 between Seller and the Buyer or any of its Affiliates,
                 regardless of whether such Transaction is in effect on the date
                 of such occurrence (capitalized terms used in this paragraph
                 (vii) shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in
                 the ISDA Master Agreement (including respective Schedules and
                 Confirmations) between Seller and the Buyer and/or any of its
                 Affiliates);

          (viii) failure of the Buyer to receive on any Remittance Date the
                 accreted value of the Price Differential (less any amount of
                 such Price Differential previously paid by Seller to Buyer)
                 (including, without limitation, in the event the Income paid or
                 distributed on or in respect of the Purchased Securities and
                 Purchased Loans is insufficient to make such payment and the
                 Seller does not make such payment or cause such payment to be
                 made) (except that such failure shall not be an Event of
                 Default by Seller if sufficient Income, other than Principal
                 Payments, is on deposit in the Cash Management Account and the
                 Depository fails to remit such funds to Buyer);

          (ix)   failure of the Seller to make any other payment owing to the
                 Buyer which has become due, whether by acceleration or
                 otherwise under the terms of this Agreement which failure is
                 not remedied within the applicable period


                                       54


                 (in the case of a failure pursuant to Section 4) or five
                 Business Days (in the case of any other such failure);

          (x)    any governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority
                 shall have taken any action to remove, limit, restrict, suspend
                 or terminate the rights, privileges, or operations of Seller,
                 which suspension has a material adverse effect on the financial
                 condition or business operations of Seller;

          (xi)   Buyer shall have determined, in the exercise of its good faith
                 business judgment, (A) that there has been a material adverse
                 change in the financial condition or creditworthiness of Seller
                 or the Sponsor; (B) that Seller or the Sponsor has breached
                 beyond applicable notice and cure periods any of its
                 obligations under any Transaction pursuant to any of the
                 Transaction Documents;

          (xii)  a Change of Control or an Act of Insolvency shall have occurred
                 with respect to the Sponsor;

          (xiii) any representation made by Seller or Buyer shall have been
                 incorrect or untrue in any material respect when made or
                 repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated (other than
                 the representations and warranties set forth in Section
                 10(b)(viii) or (ix) or (xx) (in the case of (xx), with respect
                 to the affected Purchased Securities or Purchased Loans only)
                 made by the Seller, which shall not be considered an Event of
                 Default if incorrect or untrue in any material respect, unless
                 the Seller shall have made any such representation with actual
                 knowledge that it was materially incorrect or untrue at the
                 time made);

          (xiv)  the Sponsor shall fail to observe any of the financial
                 covenants set forth in Section 5 of the Guaranty or shall have
                 defaulted or failed to perform under the Guaranty;

          (xv)   a final non-appealable judgment by any competent court in the
                 United States of America for the payment of money in an amount
                 greater than $250,000 (in the case of the Seller) or $1 million
                 (in the case of the Sponsor) shall have been rendered against
                 Seller or the Sponsor, and remained undischarged or unpaid for
                 a period of sixty (60) days, during which period execution of
                 such judgment is not effectively stayed by bonding over or
                 other means acceptable to Buyer;

          (xvi)  Sponsor shall have defaulted or failed to perform under any
                 note, indenture, loan agreement, guaranty, swap agreement or
                 any other contract, agreement or transaction to which it is a
                 party, which default (A) involves the failure to pay a monetary
                 obligation in excess of $1 million, or (B) permits the
                 acceleration of the maturity of obligations in excess of $1
                 million by any other party to or beneficiary of such note,
                 indenture, loan agreement, guaranty, swap agreement or other
                 contract agreement or



                                       55


                 transaction; provided, however, that any such default, failure
                 to perform or breach shall not constitute an Event of Default
                 if Sponsor cures such default, failure to perform or breach, as
                 the case may be, within the grace period, if any, provided
                 under the applicable agreement; or

          (xvii) Seller or Buyer shall breach or fail to perform any of the
                 terms, covenants, obligations or conditions of this Agreement,
                 other than as specifically otherwise referred to in this
                 definition of "Event of Default", and such breach or failure to
                 perform is not remedied within twenty (20) Business Days after
                 notice thereof to Seller or Buyer from the applicable party or
                 its successors or assigns.

     (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing with respect to
Seller, the following rights and remedies shall be available to Buyer:

          (i)    At the option of Buyer, exercised by written notice to Seller
                 (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised, even if
                 no notice is given, immediately upon the occurrence of an Act
                 of Insolvency), the Repurchase Date for each Transaction
                 hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed
                 immediately to occur (the date on which such option is
                 exercised or deemed to have been exercised being referred to
                 hereinafter as the "Accelerated Repurchase Date").

          (ii)   If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option
                 referred to in Section 14(a)(i) of this Agreement:

                 (A)  Seller's obligations hereunder to repurchase all Purchased
                      Securities and Purchased Loans shall become immediately
                      due and payable on and as of the Accelerated Repurchase
                      Date; and

                 (B)  to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Repurchase
                      Price with respect to each Transaction (determined as of
                      the Accelerated Repurchase Date) shall be increased by the
                      aggregate amount obtained by daily application of, on a
                      360 day per year basis for the actual number of days
                      during the period from and including the Accelerated
                      Repurchase Date to but excluding the date of payment of
                      the Repurchase Price (as so increased), (x) the Pricing
                      Rate for such Transaction multiplied by (y) the Repurchase
                      Price for such Transaction (decreased by (I) any amounts
                      actually remitted to Buyer by the Depository or Seller
                      from time to time pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 of this
                      Agreement and applied to such Repurchase Price, and (II)
                      any amounts applied to the Repurchase Price pursuant to
                      Section 14(a)(iii) of this Agreement); and (C) the
                      Custodian shall, upon the request of Buyer, deliver to
                      Buyer all instruments, certificates and other documents
                      then held by the Custodian relating to the Purchased
                      Securities and Purchased Loans.


                                       56


          (iii)  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to
                 Seller, Buyer may (A) immediately sell, at a public or private
                 sale in a commercially reasonable manner and at such price or
                 prices as Buyer may reasonably deem satisfactory any or all of
                 the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans or (B) in its sole
                 discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such
                 Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans, to give Seller credit
                 for such Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans in an amount
                 equal to the Market Value of such Purchased Securities and
                 Purchased Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price
                 for such Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans and any other
                 amounts owing by Seller under the Transaction Documents. The
                 proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Securities effected
                 pursuant to this Section 14(a)(iii) shall be applied, (v)
                 first, to the actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred
                 by Buyer in connection with Seller's default; (w) second, to
                 actual damages, including, but not limited to, costs of cover
                 and/or Hedging Transactions, if any; (x) third, to the
                 Repurchase Price; (y) fourth, to the Exit Fee and any other
                 outstanding obligation of Seller to Buyer or its Affiliates;
                 and (z) fifth, to return any excess to Seller.

          (iv)   The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase
                 or sell all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans on
                 a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same
                 purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such
                 Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans may not be liquid. In
                 view of the nature of the Purchased Securities and Purchased
                 Loans, the parties agree that liquidation of a Transaction or
                 the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans does not require a
                 public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase
                 or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially
                 reasonable manner. Accordingly, Buyer may elect, in its sole
                 discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased
                 Securities and Purchased Loans, and nothing contained herein
                 shall (A) obligate Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Securities
                 and Purchased Loans on the occurrence and during the
                 continuance of an Event of Default or to liquidate all of the
                 Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans in the same manner or
                 on the same Business Day or (B) constitute a waiver of any
                 right or remedy of Buyer.

          (v)    Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (A) the amount of all
                 expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses,
                 actually incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a
                 consequence of an Event of Default with respect to Seller, (B)
                 actual damages, including, without limitation, all costs
                 incurred in connection with covering transactions or Hedging
                 Transactions, and (C) any other actual, out-of-pocket loss,
                 damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the
                 occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to Seller.

          (vi)   Buyer shall have, in addition to its rights and remedies under
                 the Transaction Documents, all of the rights and remedies
                 provided by


                                       57


                 applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including,
                 without limitation, if the Transactions are recharacterized as
                 secured financings, the rights and remedies of a secured party
                 under the UCC of the State of New York, to the extent that the
                 UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and
                 claim), in equity, and under any other agreement between Buyer
                 and Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
                 Buyer shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the
                 liquidation of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans
                 against all of Seller's obligations to Buyer under this
                 Agreement, whether or not such obligations are then due,
                 without prejudice to Buyer's right to recover any deficiency.

          (vii)  Subject to the notice and grace periods set forth herein, Buyer
                 may exercise any or all of the remedies available to Buyer
                 immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at
                 any time during the continuance thereof. All rights and
                 remedies arising under the Transaction Documents, as amended
                 from time to time, are cumulative and not exclusive of any
                 other rights or remedies which Buyer may have.

          (viii) Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without
                 prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly
                 waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require
                 Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also
                 waives any defense Seller might otherwise have arising from the
                 use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the
                 Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans, or from any other
                 election of remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial
                 remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are
                 responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a
                 bargain at arm's length.

     (b) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to Buyer,
the following rights and remedies shall be available to Seller:

          (i)    Upon tender by Seller of payment of the aggregate Repurchase
                 Price for all Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans, Buyer's
                 right, title and interest in such Purchased Securities and
                 Purchased Loans shall be deemed transferred to Seller, and
                 Buyer shall deliver such Purchased Securities and Purchased
                 Loans to Seller at Buyer's expense.

          (ii)   If Seller exercises the option referred to in Section 14(b)(i)
                 hereof and Buyer fails to deliver any Purchased Securities or
                 Purchased Loans to Seller, after three (3) Business Days'
                 notice to Buyer, Seller may (A) purchase securities or loans,
                 as applicable ("Replacement Collateral"), that are in as
                 similar an amount and interest rate as is reasonably
                 practicable and in the same Rating Category as such Purchased
                 Securities or the same Collateral Type Grouping as such
                 Purchased Loans or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of
                 purchasing Replacement Collateral, to be deemed to have
                 purchased Replacement Collateral at a price therefor equal


                                       58


                 to the Market Value of such Purchased Securities or Purchased
                 Loans as of such date.

          (iii)  Buyer shall be liable to Seller for any excess of the price
                 paid (or deemed paid) by Seller for Replacement Collateral
                 therefor over the Repurchase Price for the Purchased Securities
                 and Purchased Loans replaced thereby, together with Seller's
                 reasonable costs and expenses.

15.  SINGLE AGREEMENT

     Buyer and Seller acknowledge that, and have entered hereunto and will enter
into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in reliance upon the
fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and
contractual relationship and have been made in consideration of each other.
Accordingly, each of Buyer and Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its
obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the
performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect
of all Transactions hereunder, (ii) that each of them shall be entitled to set
off claims and apply property held by them in respect of any Transaction against
obligations owing to them in respect of any other Transactions hereunder and
(iii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by either of them in
respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of
payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions
hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other
transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

16.  RECORDING OF COMMUNICATIONS

     EACH OF BUYER AND SELLER SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT (BUT NOT THE OBLIGATION) FROM
TIME TO TIME TO MAKE OR CAUSE TO BE MADE TAPE RECORDINGS OF COMMUNICATIONS
BETWEEN ITS EMPLOYEES, IF ANY, AND THOSE OF THE OTHER PARTY WITH RESPECT TO
TRANSACTIONS; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH RIGHT TO RECORD COMMUNICATIONS SHALL
BE LIMITED TO COMMUNICATIONS OF EMPLOYEES TAKING PLACE ON THE TRADING FLOOR OF
THE APPLICABLE PARTY. EACH OF BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE
ADMISSIBILITY OF SUCH TAPE RECORDINGS IN ANY COURT, ARBITRATION, OR OTHER
PROCEEDINGS, AND AGREES THAT A DULY AUTHENTICATED TRANSCRIPT OF SUCH A TAPE
RECORDING SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A WRITING CONCLUSIVELY EVIDENCING THE PARTIES'
AGREEMENT.

17.  NOTICES AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS

     Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices, consents,
approvals and requests required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing
and shall be effective for all purposes if sent by (a) hand delivery, with proof
of delivery, (b) certified or registered United States mail, postage prepaid,
(c) expedited prepaid delivery service, either commercial or United States
Postal Service, with proof of delivery, or (d) by telecopier (with answerback
acknowledged) provided that such telecopied notice must also be delivered by one
of the means set forth in (a), (b) or (c) above, to the address specified in
Annex I hereto or at such other


                                       59


address and person as shall be designated from time to time by any party hereto,
as the case may be, in a written notice to the other parties hereto in the
manner provided for in this Section. A copy of all notices, consents, approvals
and requests directed to Seller (other than Confirmations) shall be delivered
concurrently to the following: Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP, 75 East
55th Street, New York, New York 10022, Attention: Robert J. Grados, Esq. A
notice shall be deemed to have been given: (a) in the case of hand delivery, at
the time of delivery, (b) in the case of registered or certified mail, when
delivered or the first attempted delivery on a Business Day, (c) in the case of
expedited prepaid delivery upon the first attempted delivery on a Business Day,
or (d) in the case of telecopier, upon receipt of answerback confirmation,
provided that such telecopied notice was also delivered as required in this
Section. A party receiving a notice which does not comply with the technical
requirements for notice under this Section may elect to waive any deficiencies
and treat the notice as having been properly given.

18.  ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY

     This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties
containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions. Each
provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from
any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding
the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

19.  NON-ASSIGNABILITY

     (a) The rights and obligations of the Seller under the Transaction
Documents and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by the Seller without
the prior written consent of the Buyer.

     (b) The Buyer may assign its rights and obligations under the Transaction
Documents and/or under any Transaction or may issue one or more participation
interests with respect to any or all of the Transactions, without the consent
of, but after prior notice to, the Seller, to any other Person and, in
connection therewith, may bifurcate or allocate (i.e. senior/ subordinate)
amounts owed to Buyer; provided, however, that with respect to any such
participation or assignment, (i) Buyer shall act as exclusive agent for all
participants or assignees in any dealings with Seller in connection with such
Transactions and (ii) Seller shall not be obligated to deal directly with any
party other than Buyer in connection with such Transactions, or to pay or
reimburse Buyer for any costs that would not have been incurred by Buyer had no
participation interests in such Transactions been issued. The Seller shall
reasonably cooperate at Buyer's sole cost and expense with the Buyer in
connection with any assignment or participation, provided the Seller's
obligations under the Transactions are not increased and its rights under the
Transactions are not impaired.

     (c) Subject to the foregoing, the Transaction Documents and any
Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties
and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in the Transaction
Documents, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
to the Transaction Documents and their respective successors, any benefit or any
legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under the Transaction
Documents.


                                       60


20.  GOVERNING LAW

     This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York
without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

21.  NO WAIVERS, ETC.

     No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall
constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy
hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any
other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective
unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the
parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give
a notice pursuant to Section 4(a) or 4(b) hereof will not constitute a waiver of
any right to do so at a later date.

22.  USE OF EMPLOYEE PLAN ASSETS

     (a) If assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") are intended to be
used by either party hereto (the "Plan Party") in a Transaction, the Plan Party
shall so notify the other party prior to the Transaction. The Plan Party shall
represent in writing to the other party that the Transaction does not constitute
a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and the
other party may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to
proceed.

     (b) Subject to the last sentence of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, any
such Transaction shall proceed only if Seller furnishes or has furnished to
Buyer its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and
its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition.

     (c) By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Paragraph, Seller shall
be deemed (i) to represent to Buyer that since the date of Seller's latest such
financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in Seller's
financial condition which Seller has not disclosed to Buyer, and (ii) to agree
to provide Buyer with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial
condition as they are issued, so long as it is a Seller in any outstanding
Transaction involving a Plan Party.

23.  INTENT

     (a) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a "repurchase agreement"
as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as
amended (except insofar as the type of Assets subject to such Transaction or the
term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a
"securities contract" as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the
United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of assets subject to
such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

     (b) It is understood that either party's right to liquidate Assets
delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any
other remedies pursuant to Section 14


                                       61


hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in
Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

     (c) The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an "insured
depository institution," as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, as amended ("FDIA"), then each Transaction hereunder is a
"qualified financial contract," as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules,
orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets
subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

     (d) It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a "netting contract"
as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") and each payment entitlement and
payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a "covered
contractual payment entitlement" or "covered contractual payment obligation",
respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both
of the parties is not a "financial institution" as that term is defined in
FDICIA).

24.  DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS

     The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

     (a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or
dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under
Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("1934 Act"), the Securities
Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of
the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 ("SIPA") do not protect the other
party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

     (b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government
securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC
under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other
party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

     (c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial
institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction
hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as
applicable.

25.  CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

     (a) Each party irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States Federal or New York State court
sitting in Manhattan, and any appellate court from any such court, solely for
the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding brought to enforce its obligations
under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction
under this Agreement and (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively
do so, any defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding in any such court and any right of jurisdiction on account of its
place of residence or domicile.

     (b) To the extent that either party has or hereafter may acquire any
immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding,
from jurisdiction of any court


                                       62


or from set off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment
prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of
judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, such party
hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in
respect of any action brought to enforce its obligations under this Agreement or
relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction under this Agreement.

     (c) The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent it may
effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
such action or proceeding and irrevocably consent to the service of any summons
and complaint and any other process by the mailing of copies of such process to
them at their respective address specified herein. The parties hereby agree that
a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law. Nothing in this Section 25 shall affect the right of the Buyer
to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right
of the Buyer to bring any action or proceeding against the Seller or its
property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

     (d) EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT
DELIVERED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

26.  NO RELIANCE

     Each of Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to
the other that, in connection with the negotiation of, the entering into, and
the performance under, the Transaction Documents and each Transaction
thereunder:

     (a) It is not relying (for purposes of making any investment decision or
otherwise) upon any advice, counsel or representations (whether written or oral)
of the other party to the Transaction Documents, other than the representations
expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents;

     (b) It has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business,
investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent that it has deemed
necessary, and it has made its own investment, hedging and trading decisions
(including decisions regarding the suitability of any Transaction) based upon
its own judgment and upon any advice from such advisors as it has deemed
necessary and not upon any view expressed by the other party;

     (c) It is a sophisticated and informed Person that has a full understanding
of all the terms, conditions and risks (economic and otherwise) of the
Transaction Documents and each Transaction thereunder and is capable of assuming
and willing to assume (financially and otherwise) those risks;

     (d) It is entering into the Transaction Documents and each Transaction
thereunder for the purposes of managing its borrowings or investments or hedging
its underlying assets or liabilities and not for purposes of speculation; and


                                       63


     (e) It is not acting as a fiduciary or financial, investment or commodity
trading advisor for the other party and has not given the other party (directly
or indirectly through any other Person) any assurance, guaranty or
representation whatsoever as to the merits (either legal, regulatory, tax,
business, investment, financial accounting or otherwise) of the Transaction
Documents or any Transaction thereunder.

27.  INDEMNITY

     The Seller hereby agrees to indemnify the Buyer, the Buyer's designee and
each of its officers, directors, employees and agents ("Indemnified Parties")
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, actual out-of-pocket
losses, actual out-of-pocket damages, actual out-of-pocket penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, actual out-of-pocket taxes (including stamp, excise, sales or
other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any
of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the documents delivered in connection herewith, other than
income or similar taxes of the Buyer), actual out-of-pocket fees, actual
out-of-pocket costs, actual out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
attorneys fees and disbursements) or disbursements (all of the foregoing,
collectively "Indemnified Amounts") which may at any time (including, without
limitation, such time as this Agreement shall no longer be in effect and the
Transactions shall have been repaid in full) be imposed on or asserted against
any Indemnified Party in any way whatsoever arising out of or in connection
with, or relating to, this Agreement or any Transactions thereunder or any
action taken or omitted to be taken by any Indemnified Party under or in
connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that Seller shall not be liable
for Indemnified Amounts resulting from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of any Indemnified Party. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Seller agrees to hold Buyer harmless from and indemnify Buyer against
all Indemnified Amounts with respect to all Purchased Loans relating to or
arising out of any violation or alleged violation of any environmental law, rule
or regulation or any consumer credit laws, including without limitation ERISA,
the Truth in Lending Act and/or the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, that,
in each case, results from anything other than Buyer's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Buyer in
connection with any Purchased Loan for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce
any provisions of any Purchased Loan, Seller will save, indemnify and hold Buyer
harmless from and against all expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees),
loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment or reduction or liability whatsoever of the account debtor or obligor
thereunder, arising out of a breach by Seller of any obligation thereunder or
arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing
to or in favor of such account debtor or obligor or its successors from Seller.
Seller also agrees to reimburse Buyer as and when billed by Buyer for all
Buyer's reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
Buyer's due diligence reviews with respect to the Purchased Loans and Purchased
Securities (including, without limitation, those incurred pursuant to Section
28) and the enforcement or the preservation of Buyer's rights under this
Agreement or any Transaction contemplated hereby, including without limitation
the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel. Seller hereby acknowledges
that, the obligation of Seller hereunder is a recourse obligation of Seller.


                                       64


28.  DUE DILIGENCE

     Seller acknowledges that, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice,
Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to
the Purchased Securities and the Purchased Loans, for purposes of verifying
compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made
hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable prior notice to
Seller, Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal
business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the
Purchased Loan Files, Servicing Records and any and all documents, records,
agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Securities and
Purchased Loans in the possession or under the control of Seller, any other
servicer or subservicer and/or the Custodian. Seller also shall make available
to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of
answering questions respecting the Purchased Loan Files and the Purchased
Securities and Purchased Loans. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may enter into Transactions with the
Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer and the
representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at
its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due
diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans.
Buyer may underwrite such Purchased Loans itself or engage a third party
underwriter to perform such underwriting. Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate
with Buyer and any third party underwriter reasonably acceptable to Seller in
connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing
Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents,
records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased
Securities and Purchased Loans in the possession, or under the control, of
Seller. Seller further agrees that Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any and all
out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Buyer in connection with
Buyer's activities pursuant to this Section 28.

29.  SERVICING

     (a) Notwithstanding the purchase and sale of the Purchased Loans hereby,
Seller or Sponsor or any other third party servicer approved by Buyer shall
continue to service the Purchased Loans for the benefit of Buyer and, if Buyer
shall exercise its rights to pledge or hypothecate the Purchased Loans prior to
the Repurchase Date pursuant to Section 8, Buyer's assigns; provided, however,
that the obligations of Seller or Sponsor to service any of the Purchased Loans
shall cease, at Seller's option, upon the payment by Seller to Buyer of the
Repurchase Price therefor. In connection therewith, Seller shall be entitled to
exercise all discretion with respect to the servicing of the Purchased Loans;
provided that Seller shall not effect a Significant Purchased Loan Modification
without the consent of Buyer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. Seller shall service or cause the servicer to service
the Purchased Loans in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices approved by
Buyer in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment and maintained by
other prudent mortgage lenders with respect to mortgage loans similar to the
Purchased Loans.

     (b) Seller agrees that Buyer is the owner of all servicing records,
including but not limited to any and all servicing agreements (the "Servicing
Agreements"), files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of
computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals,
other closing documentation, payment history records, and any


                                       65


other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of Purchased Loans (the
"Servicing Records") so long as the Purchased Loans are subject to this
Agreement. Seller grants Buyer a security interest in all servicing fees and
rights relating to the Purchased Loans and all Servicing Records to secure the
obligation of the Seller or its designee to service in conformity with this
Section and any other obligation of Seller to Buyer. Seller covenants to
safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to Buyer or its
designee (including the Custodian) at Buyer's request.

     (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Buyer may, in its sole discretion, (i) sell its right to the Purchased Loans on
a servicing released basis or (ii) terminate the Seller or any sub-servicer of
the Purchased Loans with or without cause, in each case without payment of any
termination fee.

     (d) Seller shall not employ sub-servicers (other than the Sponsor) to
service the Purchased Loans without the prior written approval of Buyer. If the
Purchased Loans are serviced by a sub-servicer, Seller shall irrevocably assign
all rights, title and interest in the Servicing Agreements in the Purchased
Loans to Buyer.

     (e) Seller shall cause any sub-servicers engaged by Seller to execute a
letter agreement with Buyer acknowledging Buyer's security interest and agreeing
that it shall deposit all Income with respect to the Purchased Loans in the Cash
Management Account.

     (f) The payment of servicing fees shall be subordinate to payment of
amounts outstanding under any Transaction and this Agreement.

30.  MISCELLANEOUS

     (a) All rights, remedies and powers of Buyer hereunder and in connection
herewith are irrevocable and cumulative, and not alternative or exclusive, and
shall be in addition to all other rights, remedies and powers of Buyer whether
under law, equity or agreement. In addition to the rights and remedies granted
to it in this Agreement, to the extent this Agreement is determined to create a
security interest, Buyer shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party
under the UCC.

     (b) The Transaction Documents may be executed in counterparts, each of
which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

     (c) The headings in the Transaction Documents are for convenience of
reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of the
Transaction Documents.

     (d) Without limiting the rights and remedies of Buyer under the Transaction
Documents, Seller shall pay Buyer's reasonable actual out-of-pocket costs and
expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of accountants, attorneys and
advisors, incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution
and consummation of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, the
Transaction Documents and the Transactions thereunder. Seller agrees to pay
Buyer on demand all costs and expenses (including reasonable expenses for legal
services of every kind) of any subsequent enforcement of any of the


                                       66


provisions hereof, or of the performance by Buyer of any obligations of Seller
in respect of the Purchased Securities, or any actual or attempted sale, or any
exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of
the Collateral and for the custody, care or preservation of the Collateral
(including insurance costs) and defending or asserting rights and claims of
Buyer in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise. In addition, Seller agrees
to pay Buyer on demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable
expenses for legal services) incurred in connection with the maintenance of the
Cash Management Account and registering the Collateral in the name of Buyer or
its nominee. All such expenses shall be recourse obligations of Seller to Buyer
under this Agreement.

     (e) Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as
to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Agreement shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision
shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

     (f) The parties acknowledge and agree that although they intend to treat
each Transaction as a sale of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans, in
the event that such sale shall be recharacterized as a secured financing, this
Agreement shall also serve as a security agreement with respect to Buyer's
rights in the Collateral. In order to secure and to provide for the prompt and
unconditional repayment of the Repurchase Price and the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement, Seller hereby pledges to Buyer and hereby
grants to Buyer a first priority security interest in all of its rights in the
Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans. Seller hereby covenants to duly
execute any Form UCC financing statements as reasonably required by Buyer in
order to perfect its security interest created hereby in such rights and
obligations granted above, it being agreed that Seller shall pay any and all
fees required to file such financing statements.

     (g) This Agreement contains a final and complete integration of all prior
expressions by the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof
and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to such
subject matter, superseding all prior oral or written understandings.

     (h) The parties understand that this Agreement is a legally binding
agreement that may affect such party's rights. Each party represents to the
other that it has received legal advice from counsel of its choice regarding the
meaning and legal significance of this Agreement and that it is satisfied with
its legal counsel and the advice received from it.

     (i) Should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation,
it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a
presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed against any
Person by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed
more strictly against the Person who itself or through its agent prepared the
same, it being agreed that all parties have participated in the preparation of
this Agreement.

     (j) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a "securities contract"
as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as
amended.


                                       67


     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as a deed as
of the day first written above.

                                       NRFC DB HOLDINGS, LLC,
                                       a Delaware limited liability company

                                       By:
                                           -------------------------------------
                                       Name:

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



                                                                      EXHIBIT VI

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
                    REGARDING EACH INDIVIDUAL PURCHASED LOAN
                              SECURED BY A MORTGAGE
                              ---------------------

     1. Purchased Loan Schedule and Collateral Information. As of the Purchase
Date, the information set forth in the Purchased Loan Schedule and the
Collateral Information is complete, true and correct in all material respects.

     2. Whole Loan; Ownership of Purchased Loans. Each Purchased Loan is a whole
loan and not a participation interest in a whole loan. Immediately prior to the
transfer to the Buyer of the Purchased Loans, the Seller had good title to, and
was the sole owner of, each Purchased Loan. The Seller has full right, power and
authority to transfer and assign each of the Purchased Loans to or at the
direction of the Buyer and has validly and effectively conveyed (or caused to be
conveyed) to the Buyer or its designee all of the Seller's legal and beneficial
interest in and to the Purchased Loans free and clear of any and all pledges,
liens, charges, security interests and/or other encumbrances. The sale of the
Purchased Loans to the Buyer or its designee does not require the Seller to
obtain any governmental or regulatory approval or consent that has not been
obtained.

     3. Payment Record. No scheduled payment of principal and interest under any
Purchased Loan was 30 days or more past due as of the Purchase Date without
giving effect to any applicable grace period, and no Purchased Loan was 30 days
or more delinquent in the twelve-month period immediately preceding the Purchase
Date.

     4. Lien; Valid Assignment. The Mortgage related to and delivered in
connection with each Purchased Loan constitutes a valid and, subject to the
exceptions set forth in paragraph 13 below, enforceable first priority lien upon
the related Mortgaged Property, prior to all other liens and encumbrances,
except for:

          (a) the lien for current real estate taxes and assessments not yet due
     and payable,

          (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements
     and other matters that are of public record and/or are referred to in the
     related lender's title insurance policy,

          (c) exceptions and exclusions specifically referred to in such
     lender's title insurance policy, and

          (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject,

none of which matters referred to in clauses (b), (c) or (d) materially
interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the
marketability or current use of the Mortgaged Property or the current ability of
the Mortgaged Property to generate operating income sufficient to service the
Purchased Loan debt (the foregoing items (a) through (d) being herein referred
to as the "Permitted Encumbrances").



The related assignment of such Mortgage executed and delivered in favor of the
Buyer is in recordable form and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
assignment, sufficient to convey to the assignee named therein all of the
assignor's right, title and interest in, to and under such Mortgage. Such
Mortgage, together with any separate security agreements, chattel mortgages or
equivalent instruments, establishes and creates a valid and, subject to the
exceptions set forth in paragraph 13 below, enforceable security interest in
favor of the holder thereof in all of the related Mortgagor's personal property
used in, and reasonably necessary to operate the related Mortgaged Property. A
Uniform Commercial Code financing statement has been filed and/or recorded in
all places necessary to perfect a valid security interest in such personal
property, and such security interest is a first or second priority security
interest, subject to any prior purchase money security interest in such personal
property and any personal property leases applicable to such personal property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no representation is made as to the perfection of
any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that
possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform
Commercial Code financing statements are required in order to effect such
perfection.

     5. Assignment of Leases and Rents. The assignment of leases and rents
("Assignment of Leases") set forth in the Mortgage (or in a separate instrument)
and related to and delivered in connection with each Purchased Loan establishes
and creates a valid, subsisting and, subject to the exceptions set forth in
paragraph 13 below, enforceable first or second priority perfected lien and
first or second priority perfected security interest in the related Mortgagor's
interest in all leases, sub-leases, licenses or other agreements pursuant to
which any person is entitled to occupy, use or possess all or any portion of the
real property subject to the related Mortgage, and each assignor thereunder has
the full right to assign the same. The related assignment of any Assignment of
Leases, not included in a Mortgage, executed and delivered in favor of the Buyer
is in recordable form and constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment,
sufficient to convey to the assignee named therein all of the assignor's right,
title and interest in, to and under such Assignment of Leases.

     6. Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. No Mortgage has been
satisfied, canceled, rescinded or subordinated in whole or in material part, and
the related Mortgaged Property has not been released by Seller from the lien of
such Mortgage, in whole or in material part, nor has any instrument been
executed by Seller that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation,
subordination, rescission or release except for any partial reconveyances of
portions of the real property that do not materially adversely affect the value
of the property. None of the terms of any Mortgage Note, Mortgage or Assignment
of Leases have been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except
by written instruments, all of which are included in the related Mortgage File.

     7. Condition of Property; Condemnation. Except as set forth in an
engineering report prepared in connection with the origination of the related
Purchased Loan, each Mortgaged Property is, to the Seller's knowledge, free and
clear of any damage that would materially and adversely affect its value as
security for the related Purchased Loan (normal wear and tear excepted). The
Seller has received no notice of any pending or threatened proceeding for the
condemnation of all or any material portion of any Mortgaged Property. To the
Seller's knowledge (based on surveys and/or title insurance obtained in
connection with the origination of the Purchased Loans to the extent received)
as of the date of the origination of each Purchased


                                        2


Loan, all of the material improvements on the related Mortgaged Property which
were considered in determining the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property lay
wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of such property,
except for encroachments that are insured against by the lender's title
insurance policy referred to herein or that do not materially and adversely
affect the value or marketability of such Mortgaged Property, and no
improvements on adjoining properties materially encroached upon such Mortgaged
Property so as to materially and adversely affect the value or marketability of
such Mortgaged Property, except those encroachments that are insured against by
the Title Policy referred to herein.

     8. Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property is covered by an American Land
Title Association (or an equivalent form thereof as adopted in the applicable
jurisdiction) lender's or owner's title insurance policy (the "Title Policy"),
as the case may be, in the original principal amount of the related Purchased
Loan after all advances of principal. Each Title Policy insures that the related
Mortgage is a valid first priority lien on such Mortgaged Property, subject only
to the exceptions stated therein (or an escrow letter or a marked up title
insurance commitment on which the required premium has been paid exists which
evidences that such Title Policy will be issued). Each Title Policy (or, if it
has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and
effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and, to the Seller's knowledge, no
material claims have been made thereunder and no claims have been paid
thereunder. No holder of the related Mortgage has done, by act or omission,
anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy.
Immediately following the transfer and assignment of the related Purchased Loan
to the Buyer, such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to
be provided thereby) will inure to the benefit of the Buyer without the consent
of or notice to the insurer.

     9. No Holdbacks. The proceeds of each Purchased Loan have been fully
disbursed and there is no obligation for future advances with respect thereto.
Except as disclosed in any Purchased Loan Documents, with respect to each
Purchased Loan, any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or
off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any funds escrowed for such
purpose that were to have been complied with on or before the Purchase Date have
been complied with, or any such funds so escrowed have not been released.

     10. Mortgage Provisions. To the extent applicable, the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage for each Purchased Loan, together with applicable state law, contains
customary and enforceable provisions for comparable mortgaged properties
similarly situated (subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph 13) such as
would be expected to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof
adequate for the practical realization against the related Mortgaged Property of
the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby.

     11. Lender under Deed of Trust. To the extent applicable, if any Mortgage
is a deed of trust, (1) a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve
as such, is properly designated and serving under such Mortgage, and (2) no fees
or expenses are payable to such trustee by the Seller, the Buyer or any
transferee thereof except in connection with a trustee's sale after default by
the related Mortgagor or in connection with any full or partial release of the
related Mortgaged Property or related security for the related Purchased Loan.


                                       3


     12. Environmental Conditions. An environmental site assessment (or an
update of a previous assessment) was performed with respect to each Mortgaged
Property in connection with the origination of the related Purchased Loan, a
report of each such assessment (an "Environmental Report") has been delivered to
the Buyer, and to Seller's knowledge there is no material and adverse
environmental condition or circumstance affecting any Mortgaged Property that
was not disclosed in such report. Each Mortgage contains customary terms
requiring the related Mortgagor to comply with all applicable federal, state and
local environmental laws and regulations. Where such assessment disclosed the
existence of a material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance
affecting any Mortgaged Property, (i) a party not related to the Mortgagor was
identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance, (ii) the
related Mortgagor was required either to provide additional security and/or to
obtain an operations and maintenance plan or (iii) the related Mortgagor
provided evidence that applicable federal, state or local governmental
authorities would not take any action, or require the taking of any action, in
respect of such condition or circumstance. The related Purchased Loan Documents
contain provisions pursuant to which the related borrower or a principal of such
borrower has agreed to indemnify the mortgagee for damages resulting from
violations of any applicable Environmental Laws.

     13. Loan Document Status. Each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other agreement
that evidences or secures a Purchased Loan and that was executed by or on behalf
of the related Mortgagor is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker
thereof (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the
foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value
limit deficiency legislation), enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and
by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and there is no valid defense,
counterclaim or right of offset or rescission available to the related Mortgagor
with respect to such Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other agreements.

     14. Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the
related Mortgage to be, insured by (a) a customary fire and extended perils
insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of such Purchased
Loan providing coverage against loss or damage sustained by reason of fire,
lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a strike, civil
commotion, aircraft, vehicles and smoke, and, to the extent required as of the
date of origination by the originator of such Purchased Loan consistent with its
normal commercial mortgage lending practices, against other risks insured
against by persons operating like properties in the locality of the Mortgaged
Property in an amount not less than the lesser of the principal balance of the
related Purchased Loan and the replacement cost (not allowing for depreciation)
of the Mortgaged Property, and not less than the amount necessary to avoid the
operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property;
(b) a customary business interruption or rental loss insurance policy, in an
amount at least equal to six months of operations of the Mortgaged Property
(other than manufactured housing communities); (c) a customary flood insurance
policy (if any portion of the Mortgaged Property is located in an area
identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood
hazards) and (d) a customary comprehensive general liability insurance policy in
amounts as are generally required by commercial mortgage lenders, and in any
event not less than $1 million per occurrence. Such insurance policy contains a
standard mortgagee clause that names


                                       4


the Mortgagee as an additional insured and that requires at least thirty days'
(in the case of termination or cancellation other than for nonpayment of
premiums) and at least ten days' (in the case of termination or cancellation for
nonpayment of premiums) prior notice to the holder of the Mortgage, and no such
notice has been received, including any notice of nonpayment of premiums, that
has not been cured. Each Mortgage obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain
all such insurance and, upon such Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the
holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and
expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor. Other than as
set forth in paragraph 17(h) hereof, each Mortgage provides that casualty
insurance proceeds will be applied either to the restoration or repair of the
related Mortgaged Property or to the reduction or defeasance of the principal
amount of the Purchased Loan.

     15. Taxes and Assessments. To Seller's actual knowledge, there are no
delinquent or unpaid taxes or assessments (including assessments payable in
future installments), or other outstanding charges affecting any Mortgaged
Property which are or may become a lien of priority equal to or higher than the
lien of the related Mortgage except for any such taxes as are being
appropriately contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently
conducted and with respect to which adequate reserves have been provided in
accordance with GAAP. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real
property taxes and assessments shall not be considered unpaid until the date on
which interest and/or penalties would be first payable thereon.

     16. Mortgagor Bankruptcy. To the knowledge of the Seller, no Mortgagor is a
debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

     17. Leasehold Estate. Each Mortgaged Property consists of the related
Mortgagor's fee simple estate in real estate or, if the related Purchased Loan
is secured in whole or in part by the interest of a Mortgagor as a lessee under
a ground lease of a Mortgaged Property (a "Ground Lease"), by the related
Mortgagor's interest in the Ground Lease but not by the related fee interest in
such Mortgaged Property (the "Fee Interest"). With respect to any Purchased Loan
secured by a Ground Lease but not by the related Fee Interest:

     a.   Such Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been duly recorded; such
          Ground Lease (or the related estoppel letter or lender protection
          agreement between the Seller and related lessor) permits the current
          use of the Mortgaged Property and permits the interest of the lessee
          thereunder to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and does not
          restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its
          successors or assigns in a manner that would adversely effect the
          security provided by the related Mortgage by limiting in any way its
          current use; and there has been no material change in the payment
          terms of such Ground Lease since the origination of the related
          Purchased Loan, with the exception of material changes reflected in
          written instruments that are a part of the related Mortgage File;

     b.   The lessee's interest in such Ground Lease is not subject to any liens
          or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the related
          Mortgage, other than Permitted Encumbrances;


                                       5


     c.   The Mortgagor's interest in such Ground Lease is assignable to the
          Buyer and its successors and assigns upon notice to, but without the
          consent of, the lessor thereunder (or, if such consent is required, it
          has been obtained prior to the Purchase Date) and, in the event that
          it is so assigned, is further assignable by the Buyer and its
          successors and assigns upon notice to, but without the need to obtain
          the consent of, such lessor;

     d.   Such Ground Lease is in full force and effect, and the Seller has
          received no notice that an event of default has occurred thereunder,
          and, to the Seller's knowledge, there exists no condition that, but
          for the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would result
          in an event of default under the terms of such Ground Lease;

     e.   Such Ground Lease, or an estoppel letter or other agreement, (A)
          requires the lessor under such Ground Lease to give notice of any
          default by the lessee to the mortgagee, provided that the mortgagee
          has provided the lessor with notice of its lien in accordance with the
          provisions of such Ground Lease to the extent such Ground Lease
          requires such notice, further (B) provides that no notice of
          termination given under such Ground Lease (including rejection of such
          Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding) is effective against the
          holder of the Mortgage unless a copy of such notice has been delivered
          to such holder and the lessor has offered to enter into a new lease
          with such holder on terms that do not materially vary from the
          economic terms of the Ground Lease;

     f.   A mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where
          necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the
          lessee under such Ground Lease) to cure any default under such Ground
          Lease, which is curable after the receipt of notice of any such
          default, before the lessor thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease;

     g.   Such Ground Lease has an original term (including any extension
          options set forth therein) which extends not less than twenty years
          beyond the stated maturity date of the related Purchased Loan;

     h.   Under the terms of such Ground Lease and the related Mortgage, taken
          together, any related insurance proceeds or condemnation award other
          than in respect of a total loss will be applied either to the repair
          or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with
          the mortgagee or a Buyer appointed by it having the right to hold and
          disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses (except
          in such cases where a provision entitling another party to hold and
          disburse such proceeds would not be viewed as commercially
          unreasonable by a prudent commercial mortgage lender for conduit
          programs), or to the payment or defeasance of the outstanding
          principal balance of the Purchased Loan together with any accrued
          interest thereon;


                                       6


     i.   Such Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting which
          would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by prudent commercial
          mortgage lenders in the lending area where the Mortgaged Property is
          located; and

     j.   Such Ground Lease provides, or the lessor has otherwise agreed, that
          such Ground Lease may not be amended or modified in any fashion
          materially adverse to the interest of the mortgagee without the prior
          written consent of the mortgagee under such Purchased Loan.

     18. Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments relating to each
Purchased Loan that are, as of the Purchase Date required to be deposited or
paid have been so deposited or paid.

     19. Purchased Loan Modifications. Any Purchased Loan that was
"significantly modified" prior to the Purchase Date so as to result in a taxable
exchange under Section 1001 of the Code either (a) was modified as a result of
the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Purchased Loan or (b)
satisfies the provisions of either clause (a)(i) of paragraph 19 (substituting
the date of the last such modification for the date the Purchased Loan was
originated) or clause (a)(ii) of paragraph 19, including the proviso thereto.

     20. Advancement of Funds by the Seller. No holder of a Purchased Loan has
advanced funds or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds
from a party other than the owner of the related Mortgaged Property, directly or
indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by such Purchased Loan.

     21. No Mechanics' Liens. As of the date of the Mortgage, and to the actual
knowledge of the Seller as of the Purchase Date, each Mortgaged Property is free
and clear of any and all mechanics' and materialmen's liens that are prior or
equal to the lien of the related Mortgage, and no rights are outstanding that
under law could give rise to any such lien that would be prior or equal to the
lien of the related Mortgage except, in each case, for liens insured against by
the Title Policy referred to herein or otherwise bonded.

     22. Compliance with Usury Laws. Each Purchased Loan complied with, or is
exempt from, all applicable usury laws in effect at its date of origination.

     23. Cross-collateralization; Cross-default. No Purchased Loan is
cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any loan other than one or more
other Purchased Loans.

     24. Releases of Mortgaged Property. Except as described in the next
sentence, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage requires the mortgagee to release all or
any material portion of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the
related Mortgage except upon payment in full or defeasance of all amounts due
under the related Purchased Loan. The Mortgages relating to those Purchased
Loans identified on the Purchased Loan Schedule require the mortgagee to grant
releases of portions of the related Mortgaged Properties upon (a) the
satisfaction of certain legal and underwriting requirements and (b) except where
the portion of the Mortgaged Property permitted to be released was not
considered by the Seller to be material in the underwriting of the Purchased
Loan, either (1) the payment of a release price set forth therein and prepayment
consideration in connection therewith or (2) the partial defeasance of such
Purchased Loan.


                                       7


     No Purchased Loan permits the release or substitution of collateral if such
release or substitution (a) would create a "significant modification" of such
Purchased Loan within the meaning of Treas. Reg. ss.1.1001 3 or (b) would cause
such Purchased Loan not to be a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (without regard to clauses (A)(i) or (A)(ii)
thereof).

     25. No Equity Participation or Contingent Interest. Except as disclosed to
Buyer, no Purchased Loan contains any equity participation by the lender or
provides for negative amortization or for any contingent or additional interest
in the form of participation in the cash flow of the related Mortgaged Property.

     26. No Material Default. To the Seller's knowledge, there exists no
material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration (and no event
which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would
constitute any of the foregoing) under the documents evidencing or securing the
Purchased Loan, in any such case to the extent the same materially and adversely
affects the value of the Purchased Loan and the related Mortgaged Property;
provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not address or
otherwise cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that
specifically pertains to any matter otherwise covered by any other
representation and warranty made by the Seller in any of paragraphs 3, 7, 12,
14, 15 and 17 of this Exhibit VI.

     27. Inspections. The Seller (or if the Seller is not the originator, the
originator of the Purchased Loan) has inspected or caused to be inspected each
Mortgaged Property in connection with the origination of the related Purchased
Loan.

     28. Local Law Compliance. Based on due diligence considered reasonable by
prudent commercial mortgage lenders in the lending area where each Mortgaged
Property is located, the improvements located on or forming part of each
Mortgaged Property complies with applicable zoning laws and ordinances, or
constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure or, if any such improvement
does not so comply, such non-compliance does not materially and adversely affect
the value of the related Mortgaged Property as determined by the appraisal
performed at origination.

     29. Junior Liens. None of the Purchased Loans permits the related Mortgaged
Property to be encumbered by any lien junior to or of equal priority with the
lien of the related Mortgage without the prior written consent of the holder
thereof or the satisfaction of debt service coverage or similar criteria
specified therein. To Seller's knowledge, none of the Mortgaged Properties is
encumbered by any lien junior to the lien of the related Mortgage except as
otherwise set forth in the Purchased Loan Documents. Each Purchased Loan
contains a "due on sale" clause that provides for the acceleration of the
payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Purchased Loan if, without the
prior written consent of the holder of the Purchased Loan except as otherwise
set forth in the Purchased Loan Documents, the related Mortgaged Property is
transferred or sold.

     30. Actions Concerning Purchased Loans. To the knowledge of the Seller,
there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or threatened before any
court, administrative agency or arbitrator concerning any Purchased Loan or
related Mortgagor or Mortgaged Property that


                                        8


might adversely affect title to the Purchased Loan or the validity or
enforceability of the related Mortgage or that might materially and adversely
affect the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Purchased Loan or
the use for which the premises were intended.

     31. Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller
have been in all material respects legal, proper and prudent and have met
customary industry standards for servicing of commercial Purchased Loans for
conduit programs.

     32. Licenses and Permits. To the Seller's knowledge, as of the date of
origination of each Purchased Loan, the related Mortgagor was in possession of
all material licenses, permits and franchises required by applicable law for the
ownership and operation of the related Mortgaged Property as it was then
operated.

     33. Non-Recourse Exceptions. The Purchased Loan Documents for each
Purchased Loan provide that such Purchased Loan constitutes the non-recourse
obligations of the related obligor thereon except that either (i) such provision
does not apply in the case of fraud by the Mortgagor or (ii) such documents
provide that the Mortgagor shall be liable to the holder of the Purchased Loan
for losses incurred as a result of fraud by the Mortgagor.

     34. Single Purpose Entity. The Mortgagor on each Purchased Loan with an
outstanding principal balance in excess of $10 million, was, as of the
origination of the Purchased Loan, a Single Purpose Entity. For this purpose, a
"Single Purpose Entity" shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose
organizational documents provide substantially to the effect that it was formed
or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more
Mortgaged Properties securing the Purchased Loans and prohibit it from engaging
in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose
organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the
related Purchased Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not
have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of
such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as
permitted by the related Mortgage or the other related Purchased Loan documents,
that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from any
other person, and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart
from any other person.

     Each borrower of a Purchased Loan in excess of $10,000,000 is an entity
which has represented in connection with the origination of the Purchased Loan,
or whose organizational documents as of the date of origination of the Purchased
Loan provide that so long as the Purchased Loan is outstanding it will have at
least one independent director.

     35. Separate Tax Parcels. Each Mortgaged Property constitutes one or more
complete separate tax lots or is subject to an endorsement under the related
title insurance policy.

     36. Operating or Financial Statement. The related Purchased Loan Documents
require the related borrower to furnish to the mortgagee at least annually an
operating statement with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

     37. CTL Loans. With respect to each Purchased Loan which is an Eligible
Loan of the type described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof only:


                                        9


     (a) The related Mortgaged Property is subject to a Credit Lease, and such
Credit Lease is in full force and effect, and is a legal, valid, binding and
enforceable agreement of the related tenant, except as such enforcement may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws affecting the rights of
creditors generally, and general principles of equity, and no default by the
Mortgagor or the tenant has occurred under such Credit Lease and, to Seller's
actual knowledge, there is no existing condition which, but for the passage of
time or the giving of notice, or both, would result in a default under the terms
of such Credit Lease.

     (b) The related Credit Lease is subordinate to the related Mortgage subject
to the terms and conditions of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment
agreement between the lender and the applicable tenant; any subleases entered
into by such tenant will be subject and subordinate to the Credit Lease and will
not relieve the tenant of its obligations under the Credit Lease; in the event
that the lender acquires title to such Mortgaged Property by foreclosure or
otherwise, the lessor's interest under the related Credit Lease is freely
assignable by the lender and its successors and assigns to any person without
the consent of the tenant, and, in the event the lessor's interest is so
assigned, the tenant will be obligated to recognize the assignee as lessor under
such Credit Lease.

     (c) The related Credit Lease has an original term ending on or after the
date the Mortgagor is required to deposit its final payment on the related
Purchased Loan with the lender unless covered by extended amortization or
residual value insurance.

     (d) The monthly payment for such Purchased Loan is less than or equal to
the basic rent due under the related Credit Lease (unless such Purchased Loan
has the benefit of an extended amortization policy or a residual value insurance
policy or cash reserves or other form of credit enhancement which has been in
each case disclosed to Buyer).

     (e) No sale of the Mortgaged Property is pending by the related Mortgagor,

time and opportunity to cure or the related Purchased Loan Documents require the
tenant to cure any default under the related Credit Lease within one-half of the
time period required under the related Credit Lease, except as otherwise
disclosed to Buyer.

     (g) Except as otherwise disclosed to Buyer with respect to Credit Tenants
which are master lessor to subtenants, the related Mortgaged Property is not

possessory interest in, or right to occupy, the related Mortgaged Property
except under and pursuant to such Credit Lease and the tenant under the related
Credit Lease is in occupancy of the Mortgaged Property.

applicable) has been released, in whole or in part, from its obligations under
the Credit Lease (or guaranty, as applicable).

assign or sublet its interest or obligations under the Credit Lease unless such
tenant remains fully liable thereunder.

lease, such Credit Lease is a bondable lease with no termination or rent
abatement rights by the tenant, except in connection with the exercise of a
purchase option; and the obligations of any tenant under such lease (including,
but not limited to, the obligation of the tenant to pay fixed and additional
rent), are not affected by reason of any damage to or destruction of any portion
of the Mortgaged Property, any taking of the Mortgaged Property or any part
thereof by condemnation or otherwise, or any prohibition, limitation,
interruption, restriction, or interference of the tenant's use, occupancy or
enjoyment of the Mortgaged Property.

     (m) Such Credit Lease contains no monetary obligations or obligations
associated with managing, owning, developing and operating the Mortgaged
Property (including, but not limited to, the costs associated with utilities,
taxes, insurance, capital and structural improvements and maintenance and
repairs), on the part of the Mortgagor unless such obligations are fully
reimbursable or paid by the tenant or reserved for under the Mortgage Loan
documents.

     (n) Such Credit Lease contains customary and enforceable provisions which
render the rights and remedies of the lessor thereunder adequate for the
enforcement and satisfaction of the lessor's rights thereunder.

leased property or any taking of the leased property, or any part thereof by
condemnation or otherwise, except for Mortgage Loans subject to casualty and
condemnation lease enhancement policies or Mortgage Loans which permit
termination of rent only pursuant to exercise of a funding option sufficient to
pay the Mortgage Loan in full.

     (p) Any anticipated maintenance, repair, or replacement obligations imposed
by any easement or reciprocal easement agreement either is a direct obligation
of the tenant or an adjacent property owner or is an obligation or liability of
the Mortgagor,

reimbursable by the tenant, or has been reserved for under the Purchased Loan
documents.

     (q) Such Purchased Loan provides that the related Credit Lease cannot be
modified without the consent of the mortgagee thereunder, and the tenants have
agreed that no amendment, modification, termination or surrender of the Credit
Lease (except as expressly permitted by the Credit Lease) will be effective
without the prior written consent of the mortgagee or its successors and assigns
(except for those Credit Leases for which the related Purchased Loans include
personal recourse guarantees to principals of the mortgagor if the Credit Lease
is modified without the mortgagee's consent).

     (r) No tenant can terminate a Credit Lease for any reason, prior to the
payment in full of or the payment of funds sufficient to pay in full (1) the

Loan, as of the termination date (except for a termination due to a default by
the related borrower under the Credit Lease, or a termination due to casualty or
condemnation).

     (s) Such Credit Lease is in full force and effect and no right or claim of
rescission, offset, abatement, diminution, defense or counterclaim to such
Credit Lease has been asserted with respect thereto, nor, to Seller's actual
knowledge, is there any existing condition which, but for the passage of time or
giving of notice, would result in a right or claim of rescission, offset,
abatement, diminution, defense or counterclaim under the terms of any Credit
Lease (other than for nonmaterial punch list items).

     (t) In the case of a Purchased Loan with a "lease enhancement policy"
and/or "extended amortization policy" and/or residual value insurance policy,
the entire premium has been paid in full for each such policy (or is required to
be paid within thirty days after the related closing date), such policies are
each in full force and effect, and the legal, valid and binding obligation of
the insurer thereunder, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms,

                               ADVANCE PROCEDURE

     Final Approval of New Collateral Which is an Eligible Security/Preliminary
Approval of New Collateral Which is an Eligible Loan.

          (a) Seller may, from time to time, submit to Buyer a Preliminary Due
     Diligence Package for Buyer's review and approval in order to enter into a
     Transaction with respect to any New Collateral that Seller proposes to be
     included as Collateral under the Agreement.

          (b) Upon Buyer's receipt of a complete Preliminary Due Diligence
     Package, Buyer, within five (5) Business Days, shall have the right to
     request, in Buyer's good faith business judgment, additional diligence
     materials and deliveries that Buyer shall specify on a Supplemental Due
     Diligence List. Upon Buyer's receipt of all of the Diligence Materials or
     Buyer's waiver thereof, Buyer within ten (10) Business Days and following
     receipt of internal credit approval, shall either (i) notify Seller of the
     Purchase Price and the Market Value for the New Collateral or (ii) deny, in
     Buyer's sole and absolute discretion, Seller's request for a Transaction.
     Buyer's failure to respond to Seller within ten (10) Business Days, as
     applicable, shall be deemed to be a denial of Seller's request for an
     Advance, unless Buyer and Seller have agreed otherwise in writing.

     Final Approval of New Collateral which is an Eligible Loan. Upon Buyer's
notification to Seller of the Purchase Price and the Market Value for any New
Collateral which is an Eligible Loan, Seller shall, if Seller desires to enter
into a Transaction with respect to such New Collateral, satisfy the conditions
set forth below (in addition to satisfying the conditions precedent to obtaining
each advance, as set forth in Section 3(b) of this Agreement) as a condition
precedent to Buyer's approval of such New Collateral as Collateral, all in a
manner reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and pursuant to documentation reasonably
satisfactory to Buyer:

          (a) Delivery of Purchased Loan Documents. Seller shall deliver to
     Buyer: (i) with respect to New Collateral that is Pre-Existing Collateral,
     each of the Purchased Loan Documents, except Purchased Loan Documents that
     Seller expressly and specifically disclosed in Seller's Preliminary Due
     Diligence Package were not in Seller's possession; and (ii) with respect to
     New Collateral that is Originated Collateral, each of the Purchased Loan
     Documents.

          (b) Environmental and Engineering. Buyer shall have received a "Phase
     1" (and, if necessary, "Phase 2") environmental report, an asbestos survey,
     if applicable, and an engineering report, each in form reasonably
     satisfactory to Buyer, by an engineer or environmental consultant
     reasonably approved by Buyer.

          (c) Appraisal. Buyer shall have received either an appraisal approved
     by Buyer (or a Draft Appraisal), each by an MAI appraiser. If Buyer
     receives only a Draft Appraisal prior to entering into a Transaction,
     Seller shall deliver an appraisal approved by Buyer by an MAI appraiser on
     or before thirty (30) days after the Purchase Date.



          (d) Insurance. Buyer shall have received certificates or other
     evidence of insurance demonstrating insurance coverage in respect of the
     Mortgaged Property of types, in amounts, with insurers and otherwise in
     compliance with the terms, provisions and conditions set forth in the
     Purchased Loan Documents. Such certificates or other evidence shall
     indicate that Seller will be named as an additional insured as its interest
     may appear and shall contain a loss payee endorsement in favor of such
     additional insured with respect to the policies required to be maintained
     under the Purchased Loan Documents.

          (e) Survey. Buyer shall have received all surveys of the Mortgaged
     Property that are in Seller's possession.

          (f) Lien Search Reports. Buyer or Buyer's counsel shall have received,
     as reasonably requested by Buyer, satisfactory reports of UCC, tax lien,
     judgment and litigation searches and title updates conducted by search
     firms and/or title companies acceptable to Buyer with respect to the
     Eligible Loan, Mortgaged Property, Seller and Mortgagor, such searches to
     be conducted in each location Buyer shall reasonably designate.

          (g) Opinions of Counsel. Buyer shall have received copies of all legal
     opinions in the Seller's possession with respect to the Eligible Loan which
     shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer.

          (h) Additional Real Estate Matters. Seller shall have delivered to
     Buyer to the extent in Seller's possession such other real estate related
     certificates and documentation as may have been requested by Buyer, such
     as: (i) certificates of occupancy issued by the appropriate Governmental
     Authority and either letters certifying that the Mortgaged Property is in
     compliance with all applicable zoning laws issued by the appropriate
     Governmental Authority or evidence that the related Title Policy includes a
     zoning endorsement and (ii) abstracts of all leases in effect at the
     Mortgaged Property and estoppel certificates, in form and substance
     acceptable to Buyer, from any ground lessor and from any tenant that
     occupies 7.5% or more of the rentable space at the Mortgaged Property, and
     in any event from tenants whose occupancies aggregate not less than 70% of
     the occupied rentable square footage at the Mortgaged Property.

          (i) Other Documents. Buyer shall have received such other documents as
     Buyer or its counsel shall reasonably deem necessary.

Within five (5) Business Days of Seller's satisfaction of all of the conditions
enumerated in clauses (a) through (i) above, Buyer shall either (i) if the
Purchased Loan Documents with respect to the New Collateral are not reasonably
satisfactory in form and substance to Buyer, notify Seller that Buyer has not
approved the New Collateral as Collateral or (ii) notify Seller that Buyer has
approved the New Collateral as Collateral. Buyer's failure to respond to Seller
within two (2) Business Days shall be deemed to be a denial of Seller's request
that Buyer approve the New Collateral, unless Buyer and Seller have agreed
otherwise in writing.



                                                                      EXHIBIT IX
