                           ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF NOTES

         Section 2.01 FORM. The Notes, together with the Indenture Trustee's
certificate of authentication, shall be in substantially the form set forth in
Exhibit A, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other
variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture and may have such
letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or
endorsements placed thereon as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the
officers executing such Notes, as evidenced by their execution of the Notes. Any
portion of the text of any Note may be set forth on the reverse thereof, with an
appropriate reference thereto on the face of the Note.

         The Notes shall be typewritten, printed, lithographed or engraved or
produced by any combination of these methods (with or without steel engraved
borders), all as determined by the Authorized Officers executing such Notes, as
evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

         The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibits A-1, A-2 and A-3 are part
of the terms of this Indenture.

         Section 2.02 EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION AND DELIVERY. The Notes shall be
executed on behalf of the Issuing Entity by any of its Authorized Officers. The
signature of any such Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or
facsimile.

         Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were
at any time Authorized Officers of the Issuing Entity shall bind the Issuing
Entity, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold
such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Notes.

         The Indenture Trustee shall upon Issuing Entity Request authenticate
and deliver Notes for original issue in an aggregate initial principal amount of
$_________.

         Each Class of Notes shall be dated the date of its authentication. The

valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein
executed by the Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of one of its
authorized signatories, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and
delivered hereunder.



                                  ARTICLE III

                                    COVENANTS

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

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

         Section 3.03 MONEY FOR PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST; PAYING AGENT. (a)
As provided in Section 3.01, all payments of amounts due and payable with
respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment
Account pursuant to Section 3.01 shall be made on behalf of the Issuing Entity
by the Indenture Trustee or by the Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn
from the Payment Account for payments of Notes shall be paid over to the Issuing
Entity except as provided in this Section 3.03.

         The Issuing Entity will cause each Paying Agent other than the
Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument
in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the
Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent it hereby so agrees), subject to the
provisions of this Section 3.03, that such Paying Agent will:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

delivered to it, on the Business Day following the related Determination Date

         Section 3.26 ALLOCATION OF REALIZED LOSSES. On any Payment Date in
which the Overcollateralized Amount has been reduced to zero, and an Applied
Loss Amount exists, such Applied Loss Amount shall be allocated in the following
priority:

         (a) first, the Class Principal Balance of the Class B-2 Notes shall be
reduced, until the Class Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

         (b) second, the Class Principal Balance of the Class B-1 Notes shall be
reduced, until the Class Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

         (c) third, the Class Principal Balance of the Class M-2 Notes shall be
reduced, until the Class Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and

         (d) fourth, the Class Principal Balance of the Class M-1 Notes shall be
reduced, until the Class Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.

The Class Principal Balance of the Class A Notes will not be so reduced and will
continue to receive Current Interest thereon in accordance with Section 3.05(b).

         Section 3.27 DETERMINATION OF THE LIBOR RATE. On each LIBOR Rate
Adjustment Date, LIBOR shall be established by the Indenture Trustee and as to
any Accrual Period, LIBOR will equal the rate for United States dollar deposits
for one month which appears on the Dow Jones Telerate Screen Page 3750 as of
11:00 A M , London time, on that LIBOR rate adjustment date. Dow Jones Telerate
Screen Page 3750 means the display designated as page 3750 on the Telerate
Service or any other page as may replace page 3750 on that service for the
purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks. If the rate
does not appear on that page or any other page as may replace that page on that
service, or if the service is no longer offered, any other service for
displaying LIBOR or comparable rates as may be selected by the Indenture Trustee
after consultation with the Servicer, the rate will be the reference bank rate.

         The Reference Bank Rate will be determined on the basis of the rates at
which deposits in the U. S. Dollars are offered by the reference banks, which
shall be three major banks that are engaged in transactions in the London
interbank market, selected by the Indenture Trustee after consultation with the
Servicer. The Reference Bank Rate will be determined as of 11:00 A M , London
time, on the LIBOR rate adjustment date to prime banks in the London interbank
market for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the Class
Principal Balance of the Class A Notes. The Indenture Trustee will request the
principal London office of each of the reference banks to provide a quotation of
its rate. If at least two quotations are provided, the rate will be the
arithmetic mean of the quotations. If on that date fewer than two quotations are
provided as requested, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted
by one or more major banks in New York City, selected by the Indenture Trustee
after consultation with the Servicer, as of 11:00 A M , New York City time, on
that date for loans in U S Dollars to leading European banks for a period of one
month in amounts approximately equal to the note balance of the Class A Notes.
If no quotations can be obtained, the rate will be LIBOR for the prior Payment
Date; provided however, if, under the priorities listed previously in this
paragraph, LIBOR for a Payment Date would be based on LIBOR for the previous
Payment Date for the third consecutive Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee after
consultation with the Servicer shall select an alternative comparable index over
which the Indenture Trustee has no control, used for determining one-month
Eurodollar lending rates that is calculated and published or otherwise made
available by an independent party. LIBOR business day means any day other than
(a) a Saturday or a Sunday or (b) a day on which banking institutions in the
city of London, England or New York, New York are required or authorized by law
to be closed.

         The establishment of LIBOR by the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture
Trustee's subsequent calculation of the Note Interest Rate applicable to the
Class A, Class M-2 and Class B-1 Notes for the relevant Accrual Period, in the
absence of manifest error, will be final and binding.

         Section 3.28 LIQUIDATION ON FINAL MATURITY DATE. On the Final Maturity
Date, if the Securities are not paid in full on or prior to the Final Maturity
Date, the Indenture Trustee shall take full account of the assets and
liabilities of the Owner Trust, shall liquidate the assets, in a commercially
reasonable manner and on commercially reasonable terms, as promptly as is
consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof and in accordance with Section
5.15, and shall apply and distribute the proceeds therefrom in the order of
priority described in Section 3.05(b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g).

         Section 3.29 NO RECOURSE. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
under the Notes, this Indenture or the other Basic Documents, Holders of the
Notes shall have recourse only to the Collateral and all proceeds thereof, as
and to the extent provided herein, and no recourse shall be had by such Holders
against the Issuing Entity or its other assets or properties.



                                   ARTICLE IV

               THE NOTES; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

         Section 4.01 THE NOTES. The Book-Entry Notes shall be registered in the
name of a nominee designated by the Depository. Beneficial Owners will hold
interests in the Book-Entry Notes through the book-entry facilities of the
Depository in minimum initial Note Balances of $25,000 and integral multiples of
$1 in excess thereof. Ownership in any Physical Note will be evidenced by a
physical, fully registered Note transferable through the facilities of the Note
Registrar.

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

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

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

         Section 4.02 REGISTRATION OF AND LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE
OF NOTES; APPOINTMENT OF CERTIFICATE REGISTRAR. The Issuing Entity shall cause
to be kept at the Indenture Trustee's Corporate Trust Office a Note Register in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Note
Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers and
exchanges of Notes as herein provided.

         Each Person who has or who acquires any Note (other than a Class B-2
Note) shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Note to have
represented that the either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with the assets of
a Plan or (2) the acquisition and holding of a Note will not give rise to a
nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code as a result of any of the above-mentioned Persons being a "Party in
Interest" (within the meaning of ERISA) or Disqualified Person (within the
meaning of the Code).

         No Class B-2 Note may be sold or transferred unless: (1) the transferee
is not a Plan or any other person acting on behalf of a Plan, or using the
assets of a Plan to acquire such Notes; or (2) the transferee is a Plan and has
provided the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee that the purchase,
holding and transfer of the Class B-2 Notes or interests therein is permissible
under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited
transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the
Issuing Entity, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee to any obligation in
addition to those undertaken in this Agreement.

         The Class B-2 Notes cannot be sold or transferred to Non-United States
Persons.

         No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Class B-2 Note
shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the
event of any such transfer, the Indenture Trustee prior to such transfer either
(i) shall require the transferee to execute an investment letter in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (or in such form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee) which investment
letters shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the
Servicer or the Depositor and which investment letter states that, among other
things, such transferee (a) is a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined
under Rule 144A, acting for its own account or the accounts of other "qualified
institutional buyers" as defined under Rule 144A, and (b) is aware that the
proposed transferor intends to rely on the exemption from registration
requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Rule 144A
or (ii) (a) may require the delivery of a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable
to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made
pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or the Depositor and (b) shall
require the transferee to execute a representation letter, substantially in the
form of Exhibit D hereto, and the transferor to execute a representation letter,
substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, each acceptable to and in form
and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee certifying the facts
surrounding such transfer, which representation letters shall not be an expense
of the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or the Depositor.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 4.04 PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee
and any agent of the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as
the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and
interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not such Note be overdue, and neither the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee
nor any agent of the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.

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

         Section 4.06 BOOK-ENTRY NOTES. The Notes (other than the Class B-2
Notes), upon original issuance, will be issued in the form of typewritten Notes
representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust
Company, the initial Depository, by, or on behalf of, the Issuing Entity. The
Notes shall initially be registered on the Note Register in the name of Cede &
Co., the nominee of the initial Depository, and no Beneficial Owner will receive
a Definitive Note representing such Beneficial Owner's interest in such Note,
except as provided in Section 4.08. Unless and until definitive, fully
registered Notes (the "Definitive Notes") have been issued to Beneficial Owners
pursuant to Section 4.08:

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 4.08 DEFINITIVE NOTES. If (i) the Indenture Trustee determines
that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities with respect to the Notes and the Indenture Trustee is unable
to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Indenture Trustee elects to terminate
the book-entry system through the Depository or (iii) after the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Owners of the Notes representing beneficial interests
aggregating at least a majority of the Note Balances of the Notes advise the
Depository in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the
Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners, then the
Depository shall notify all Beneficial Owners and the Indenture Trustee of the
occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to
Beneficial Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee
of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Depository,
accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuing Entity shall execute and
the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with
the instructions of the Depository. None of the Issuing Entity, the Note
Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of
such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in
relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the
Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes as
Noteholders.

         Section 4.09 TAX TREATMENT. The Issuing Entity has entered into this
Indenture, and the Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for federal,
state and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, the Notes
will qualify as indebtedness of the Issuing Entity. The Issuing Entity, by
entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance of its Note
(and each Beneficial Owner by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable
Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the Notes for federal, state and local income,
single business and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuing Entity
and agree, so long as the equity of the Issuing Entity is owned by one person
for federal income tax purposes, to disregard the Issuing Entity as an entity
separate from its 100% owner. However, in the event the Issuing Entity is
treated as a partnership, then the Administrator pursuant to the Administration
Agreement shall, for federal income tax information and reporting purposes,
treat the Issuing Entity as a partnership and will file such tax returns
relating to a partnership (including the partnership information return on IRS
Form 1065). All of the parties hereto and each Noteholder agrees to appoint the
Administrator as agent to the "tax matters person" for federal income tax
purposes, if necessary.

         Section 4.10 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE. This Indenture
shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Notes except as to (i)
rights of registration of transfer and exchange, (ii) substitution of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, (iii) rights of Noteholders to receive payments
of principal thereof and interest thereon, (iv) Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.06, 3.09,
3.13, 3.15, 3.16 and the last paragraph of Section 4.02, (v) the rights,
obligations and immunities of the Indenture Trustee hereunder (including the
rights of the Indenture Trustee under Section 6.07 and the obligations of the
Indenture Trustee under Section 4.11) and (vi) the rights of Noteholders as
beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited with the
Indenture Trustee payable to all or any of them, and the Indenture Trustee, on
demand of and at the expense of the Issuing Entity, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with
respect to the Notes, when

                  (A) either

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

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

                                    a.       have become due and payable,

                                    b.       will become due and payable within
                                             one year, or

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 4.12 [RESERVED].

         Section 4.13 REPAYMENT OF MONIES HELD BY PAYING AGENT. In connection
with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes,
all monies then held by any Person other than the Indenture Trustee under the
provisions of this Indenture with respect to such Notes shall, upon demand of
the Issuing Entity, be paid to the Indenture Trustee to be held and applied
according to Section 3.05 and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from
all further liability with respect to such monies.

         Section 4.14 TEMPORARY NOTES. Pending the preparation of any Definitive
Notes, the Issuing Entity may execute and upon its written direction, the
Indenture Trustee may authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary
Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise
produced, in any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive
Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions,
omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such
Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

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



                                   ARTICLE V

                              DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

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

         Section 5.02 ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT. If an
Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the
Indenture Trustee may, and upon the request of the Holders of Notes representing
not less than a majority of the Note Balances of all Notes, the Indenture
Trustee shall, declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice
in writing to the Issuing Entity (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by
Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of each
class of Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the
date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         (a) Subject to Section 3.27, the Issuing Entity covenants that if a
default occurs in the payment of (i) any interest on any Note when the same
becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of five days,
or (ii) the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when
the same becomes due and payable, the Issuing Entity shall, upon demand of the
Indenture Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of Notes, the whole
amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, with
interest upon the overdue principal, and in addition thereto such further amount
as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including
the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of the Indenture Trustee
and its agents and counsel.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 5.04 REMEDIES; PRIORITIES. (a) If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee subject to the provisions
of Section 10.17 hereof may do one or more of the following (subject to Section
5.05):

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

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

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

                  (iv) [Reserved]

                  (v) refrain from selling the Trust Estate (unless otherwise
         directed by a majority of noteholders) and continue to apply all
         amounts received thereon to payments on the Notes in accordance with
         Section 3.05; and

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

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee must sell or otherwise liquidate
the Trust Estate following an Event of Default, if (i) the Holders of the Notes
representing not less than a majority of the Note Balance of all of the Notes
direct the Indenture Trustee to sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate or
(ii) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Loans will not continue to
provide sufficient funds for (A) the payment of expenses under this Indenture
and (B) the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have
become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable. In determining
such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clause (A) and (B), the
Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an
Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to
the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust
Estate for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as a Servicing
Default has not occurred, any Sale of the Trust Estate shall be made subject to
the continued servicing of the Loans by the Servicer as provided in the
Servicing Agreement.

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

                  FIRST: to the Indenture Trustee for amounts due and unpaid
                  under Section 6.07 and to the Owner Trustee for amounts due
                  and unpaid under Article VII of the Amended and Restated Trust
                  Agreement;

                  SECOND: to the Class A Noteholders, the amount of any Current
                  Interest and any Carryforward Interest, any applicable Basis
                  Risk Shortfall, and further as principal until the Class
                  Principal Balance of such Class has been reduced to zero;

                  THIRD: to the Class M-1 Noteholders, the amount of any Current
                  Interest and any Carryforward Interest, any applicable
                  Deferred Amounts, and further as principal until the Class
                  Principal Balance of such Class has been reduced to zero;

                  FOURTH: to the Class M-2 Noteholders, the amount of any
                  Current Interest and any Carryforward Interest, any applicable
                  Deferred Amounts, any applicable Basis Risk Shortfall, and
                  further as principal until the Class Principal Balance of such
                  Class has been reduced to zero;

                  FIFTH: to the Class B-1 Noteholders, the amount of any Current
                  Interest and any Carryforward Interest, any applicable
                  Deferred Amounts, any applicable Basis Risk Shortfall, and
                  further as principal until the Class Principal Balance of such
                  Class has been reduced to zero;

                  SIXTH: to the Class B-2 Noteholders, the amount of any Current
                  Interest and any Carryforward Interest, any applicable
                  Deferred Amounts, any applicable Available Funds Shortfall,
                  and further as principal until the Class Principal Balance of
                  such Class has been reduced to zero; and

                  SEVENTH: to the payment of the remainder, if any to the
                  Certificate Paying Agent on behalf of the Issuing Entity or to
                  any other person legally entitled thereto.

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

         Section 5.05 OPTIONAL PRESERVATION OF THE TRUST ESTATE. If the Notes
have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.02 following an Event
of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled, the Indenture Trustee shall, unless otherwise directed to by a
majority of noteholders, elect to take and maintain possession of the Trust
Estate. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be
at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on
the Notes and other obligations of the Issuing Entity.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 5.07 UNCONDITIONAL RIGHTS OF NOTEHOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL
AND INTEREST. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, but
subject to Section 3.27, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is
absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, and
interest, on such Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in
such Note or in this Indenture and to institute suit for the enforcement of any
such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Holder.

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

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

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

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

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

                  (ii) subject to the express terms of Section 5.04, any
         direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust
         Estate shall be by Holders of Notes representing not less than a
         majority of the Note Balances of Notes;

                  (iii) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 have been
         satisfied and the Indenture Trustee is directed to retain the Trust
         Estate pursuant to such Section, then any direction to the Indenture
         Trustee by Holders of Notes representing less than a majority of the
         Note Balances of Notes to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be
         of no force and effect; and

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

                  (1)      the Holders of all Notes consent to or direct the
                           Indenture Trustee to make, such Sale, or

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

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

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

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

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

                  (2)      the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the
                           property offered for Sale in connection with any Sale
                           thereof, and, subject to any requirements of, and to
                           the extent permitted by, applicable law in connection
                           therewith, may purchase all or any portion of the
                           Trust Estate in a private sale, and, in lieu of
                           paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the
                           purchase price by crediting the gross Sale price
                           against the sum of (A) the amount which would be
                           distributable to the Holders of the Notes and Holders
                           of Certificates as a result of such Sale in
                           accordance with Section 5.04(b) on the Payment Date
                           next succeeding the date of such Sale and (B) the
                           expenses of the Sale and of any Proceedings in
                           connection therewith which are reimbursable to it,
                           without being required to produce the Notes in order
                           to complete any such Sale or in order for the net
                           Sale price to be credited against such Notes, and any
                           property so acquired by the Indenture Trustee shall
                           be held and dealt with by it in accordance with the
                           provisions of this Indenture;

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

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

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

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



                                   ARTICLE VI

                              THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 6.02 RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) The Indenture Trustee may
rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper person. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate any
fact or matter stated in the document.

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 6.05 NOTICE OF EVENT OF DEFAULT. The Indenture Trustee shall
mail to each Noteholder notice of the Event of Default within 90 days after it
occurs. Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment of principal of or
interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so
long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that
withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

         Section 6.06 REPORTS BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS. The Indenture
Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder such information as may be required to
enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns including
without limitation Form 1099, to the extent such form is required by law. In
addition, upon the Issuing Entity's written request, the Indenture Trustee shall
promptly furnish information reasonably requested by the Issuing Entity that is
reasonably available to the Indenture Trustee to enable the Issuing Entity to
perform its federal and state income tax reporting obligations.

         Section 6.07 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY. The Issuing Entity shall pay
to the Indenture Trustee on each Payment Date reasonable compensation for its
services. The Indenture Trustee shall be compensated and indemnified by the
Sponsor in accordance with Section 4(b) of the Administration Agreement, and all
amounts owing to the Indenture Trustee hereunder in excess of such amount shall
be paid solely as provided in Section 3.05 hereof (subject to the priorities set
forth therein). The Indenture Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any
law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuing Entity shall
reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all Trustee Additional Expenses, in addition
to the compensation for its services. The Issuing Entity shall indemnify the
Indenture Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including
attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this
trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall
notify the Issuing Entity promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity.
Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuing Entity shall not
relieve the Issuing Entity of its obligations hereunder. The Issuing Entity
shall defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel
and the Issuing Entity shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such
counsel. The Issuing Entity is not obligated to reimburse any expense or
indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture
Trustee through the Indenture Trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or
bad faith.

         The Issuing Entity's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee
pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture.
When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of
Default with respect to the Issuing Entity, the expenses are intended to
constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code
or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

         Section 6.08 REPLACEMENT OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. No resignation or
removal of the Indenture Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture
Trustee shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the
successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08. No termination of the
Indenture Trustee without cause will be effective unless the costs and expenses
of such Indenture Trustee have been reimbursed in connection with such removal.
The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuing Entity.
The Holders of a majority of Note Balances of the Notes may remove the Indenture
Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and may appoint a successor
Indenture Trustee. The Issuing Entity shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 6.10 APPOINTMENT OF CO-INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE INDENTURE
TRUSTEE. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture
Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to
appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate
trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust, and to vest
in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the
Noteholders, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject
to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations,
rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable.
No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms
of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to
Noteholders of the appointment of any cotrustee or separate trustee shall be
required under Section 6.08 hereof.

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 6.11 ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION. The Indenture Trustee shall
at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA ss. 310(a). The Indenture Trustee
shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth
in its most recent published annual report of condition and it or its parent
shall have a long-term debt rating of A2 or better by Moody's. The Indenture
Trustee shall comply with TIA ss. 310(b), including the optional provision
permitted by the second sentence of TIA ss. 310(b)(9); provided, however, that
there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA ss. 310(b)(1) any indenture or
indentures under which other securities of the Issuing Entity are outstanding if
the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA ss. 310(b)(1) are met.

         Section 6.12 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST ISSUING ENTITY.
The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA ss. 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA ss. 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to TIA ss. 311(a) to the extent indicated.

         Section 6.13 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Indenture Trustee
hereby represents that:

                  (iii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by
         this Indenture and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict
         with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or
         constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under,
         the articles of organization or bylaws of the Indenture Trustee or any
         agreement or other instrument to which the Indenture Trustee is a party
         or by which it is bound which conflict or breach would have a
         materially adverse impact on the ability of the Indenture Trustee to
         perform its obligations under the Basic Documents to which it is a
         party.

                  (iv) To the Indenture Trustee's best knowledge, there are no
         proceedings or investigations pending or threatened before any court,

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

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

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

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

prescribed by Exhibit A in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

         (c) to take all other actions as shall be required to be taken by the
terms of this Indenture.

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

         Section 6.16 COMPLIANCE WITH WITHHOLDING REQUIREMENTS. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall comply with
all federal withholding requirements respecting payments to Noteholders of
interest that the Indenture Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the
Code. The consent of Noteholders shall not be required for such withholding.

         subservicer or originator at any time, for purposes of disclosure as

The Depositor hereby grants to the Servicer a limited power of attorney to sign
each Form 10-D, Form 8-K and Form 10-K on behalf of the Depositor. Such power of
attorney shall continue until either the earlier of (x) receipt by the Servicer
from the Depositor of written termination of such power of attorney and (y) the
termination of the Trust Fund. The Depositor agrees to promptly furnish to the
Indenture Trustee, from time to time upon request, such further information,
reports and financial statements within its control related to this Agreement,
the Mortgage Loans as the Indenture Trustee reasonably deems appropriate to
prepare and file all necessary reports with the Commission. The Indenture
Trustee shall have no responsibility to file any items other than those
specified in this Section 7.05; provided, however, the Indenture Trustee will
cooperate with the Depositor in connection with any additional filings with
respect to the Trust Fund as the Depositor deems necessary under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Copies of all reports
filed by the Indenture Trustee under the Exchange Act shall be sent to: the
Depositor c/o _____________, Attn: _____________, _____________, _____________,
_____________. Fees and expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection
with this Section 7.05 shall not be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.

Trustee shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit [__])
for the Depositor regarding certain aspects of the Form 10-K certification
signed by the Depositor, provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not
be required to undertake an analysis of any accountant's report attached as an
exhibit to the Form 10-K.

         (c) In connection with the filing of any 10-K hereunder, the Servicer
shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit [__]) for the
benefit of the Depositor regarding certain aspects of the Form 10-K
certification signed by the Depositor, provided, however, that the Servicer
shall not be required to undertake an analysis of any accountant's report
attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K.

         (d) The Indenture Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Depositor and its officers, directors and affiliates from and against any
losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal
fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or
based upon a breach of the Indenture Trustee's obligations under this Section
7.05 or the Indenture Trustee's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection therewith.

         The Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee
and its officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a
breach of the obligations of the Depositor under this Section 7.05 or the
Depositor's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

         The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee
and the Depositor and their respective officers, directors and affiliates from
and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and
necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses
arising out of or based upon a breach of the obligations of the Servicer under
this Section 7.05 or the Servicer's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
in connection therewith.

         If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee, as
applicable, then the defaulting party, in connection with a breach of its
respective obligations under this Section 7.05 or its respective negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith, agrees that it shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by the other parties as a result of the
losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the other party in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault and the relative benefit of the
Depositor on the one hand and the Indenture Trustee on the other.

         (e) Nothing shall be construed from the foregoing subsections (a), (b)
and (c) to require the Indenture Trustee or any officer, director or Affiliate
thereof to sign any Form 10-K or any certification contained therein.
Furthermore, the inability of the Indenture Trustee to file a Form 10-K as a
result of the lack of required information as set forth in Section 7.05(a) or
required signatures on such Form 10-K or any certification contained therein
shall not be regarded as a breach by the Indenture Trustee of any obligation
under this Agreement.

         This Section 7.05 may be amended without the consent of the
Noteholders.

provisions of this Indenture shall, execute instruments to release property from
the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Indenture Trustee's interest in the
same, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by
the Indenture Trustee as provided in Article VIII hereunder shall be bound to
ascertain the Indenture Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of
any conditions precedent, or see to the application of any monies.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee shall, at such time as (i) there are no Notes

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

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

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

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

                  (viii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this
         Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the
         qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar
         federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such
         other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA;

provided, however, that no such indenture supplements shall be entered into
unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an opinion of counsel of the
Issuing Entity that entering into such indenture supplement will not (A) have
any material adverse tax consequences to the Noteholders and (B) adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholder.

         The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of
any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements
and stipulations that may be therein contained.

         (b) The Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an
Issuing Entity Request, may, also without the consent of any of the Holders of
the Notes but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies, enter into an indenture
or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to,
or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this
Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes
under this Indenture.

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

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

                  (i) change the date of payment of any installment of principal
         of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof or
         the interest rate thereon, change the provisions of this Indenture
         relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the
         sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the
         Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in
         which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right
         to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this
         Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as
         provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the
         Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof;

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

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

                  (iv) reduce the percentage of the Note Balances of the Notes
         required to direct the Indenture Trustee to direct the Issuing Entity
         to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04;

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

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

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

and provided, further, that no such indenture supplements shall be entered into
unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel that
entering into such indenture supplement will not adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the Certificateholder.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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



                                   ARTICLE X

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 10.01 COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES AND OPINIONS, ETC. (a) Upon any
application or request by the Issuing Entity to the Indenture Trustee to take
any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Issuing Entity shall
furnish to the Indenture Trustee (i) an Officer's Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the
proposed action have been complied with and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating
that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have
been complied with, except that, in the case of any such application or request
as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any
provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be
furnished.

         Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a
condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

                  (1)      a statement that each signatory of such certificate
                           or opinion has read or has caused to be read such
                           covenant or condition and the definitions herein
                           relating thereto;

                  (2)      a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
                           examination or investigation upon which the
                           statements or opinions contained in such certificate
                           or opinion are based;

                  (3)      a statement that, in the opinion of each such
                           signatory, such signatory has made such examination
                           or investigation as is necessary to enable such
                           signatory to express an informed opinion as to
                           whether or not such covenant or condition has been
                           complied with;

                  (4)      a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each
                           such signatory, such condition or covenant has been
                           complied with; and

                  (5)      if the Signer of such Certificate or Opinion is
                           required to be Independent, the Statement required by
                           the definition of the term "Independent".

         (b) (i) Prior to the deposit of any Collateral or other property or
securities with the Indenture Trustee that is to be made the basis for the
release of any property or securities subject to the lien of this Indenture, the
Issuing Entity shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in Section 10.01(a)
or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's
Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such
certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such deposit) to the Issuing
Entity of the Collateral or other property or securities to be so deposited.

                  (ii) Whenever the Issuing Entity is required to furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (i)
         above, the Issuing Entity shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee
         an Independent Certificate as to the same matters, if the fair value to
         the Issuing Entity of the securities to be so deposited and of all
         other such securities made the basis of any such withdrawal or release
         since the commencement of the then-current fiscal year of the Issuing
         Entity, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause
         (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Note Balances of
         the Notes, but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to
         any securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Issuing
         Entity as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less than
         $25,000 or less than one percent of the Note Balances of the Notes.

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

                  (iv) Whenever the Issuing Entity is required to furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause
         (iii) above, the Issuing Entity shall also furnish to the Indenture
         Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the same matters if the fair
         value of the property or securities and of all other property, other
         than property as contemplated by clause (v) below or securities
         released from the lien of this Indenture since the commencement of the
         then-current calendar year, as set forth in the certificates required
         by clause (iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or more of the
         Note Balances of the Notes, but such certificate need not be furnished
         in the case of any release of property or securities if the fair value
         thereof as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less than
         $25,000 or less than one percent of the then Note Balances of the
         Notes.

                  (v) Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture, the
         Issuing Entity may, without compliance with the requirements of the
         other provisions of this Section 10.01, (A) collect, sell or otherwise
         dispose of the Loans as and to the extent permitted or required by the
         Basic Documents or (B) make cash payments out of the Payment Account as
         and to the extent permitted or required by the Basic Documents, so long
         as the Issuing Entity shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee every six
         months, commencing June 30, ____, an Officer's Certificate of the
         Issuing Entity stating that all the dispositions of Collateral
         described in clauses (A) or (B) above that occurred during the
         preceding six calendar months were in the ordinary course of the
         Issuing Entity's business and that the proceeds thereof were applied in
         accordance with the Basic Documents.

         Section 10.02 FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE. In any
case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an
opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be
certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they
be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify
or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such
Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion
as to such matters in one or several documents.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 10.04 NOTICES, ETC., TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE, ISSUING ENTITY AND
RATING AGENCIES. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this
Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders is to be made upon,
given or furnished to or filed with:

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

                  (ii) the Issuing Entity by the Indenture Trustee or by any
         Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in
         writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuing Entity
         addressed to: Nomura Home Equity Loan, Inc. Trust Series ____-__, in
         care of [Name of Owner Trustee], or at any other address previously
         furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuing Entity.
         The Issuing Entity shall promptly transmit any notice received by it
         from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

         Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuing
Entity, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing,
personally delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to
(i) in the case of S&P, at the following address: 55 Water Street New York, NY
10041 Attention Mortgage Surveillance Monitoring and (ii) in the case of
Moody's, at the following address: Moody's Investors Service, Inc., ABS
Monitoring Department, 99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007, Attention:
Residential Mortgage Surveillance Group; or as to each of the foregoing, at such
other address as shall be designated by written notice to the other parties.

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

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

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

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

         Section 10.06 ALTERNATE PAYMENT AND NOTICE PROVISIONS. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuing
Entity may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note providing for a
method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee to such Holder, that is
different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or
notices. The Issuing Entity shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of
each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made
and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements.

         Section 10.07 CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. If any provision
hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is
required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

CUSIP NO. ___________

         Nomura Home Equity Loan, Inc. Trust Series ____-__, a business trust
duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein
referred to as the "Issuing Entity"), for value received, hereby promises to pay
to Cede & Co. or registered assigns, the principal sum of $ ____________,
payable on each Payment Date in an amount equal to the Percentage Interest
specified above of the aggregate amount, if any, payable from the Payment
Account in respect of principal and interest on the Class A Notes pursuant to
Section 3.05 of the Indenture dated as of ______________ (the "Indenture")
between the Issuing Entity, as Issuing Entity, and [Name of Indenture Trustee],
as Indenture Trustee (the "Indenture Trustee"); provided, however, that the
entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the
Payment Date in _____________, to the extent not previously paid on a prior
Payment Date. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are defined in
Appendix A of the Indenture.

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

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

         Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on
the reverse hereof, which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.

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

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuing
Entity, designated as its Asset- Backed Notes (herein called the "Notes"), all
issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights and
obligations thereunder of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the
holders of the Notes. The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

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

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

         The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and
payable in full on the Payment Date in ___________ pursuant to the Indenture, to
the extent not previously paid on a prior Payment Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then
the Indenture Trustee or the holders of Notes representing not less than a
majority of the Note Balances of all Notes may declare the Notes to be
immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the
Indenture.

         Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each Payment Date,
together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full
payment of this Note, shall be made by check mailed to the Person whose name
appears as the Registered Holder of this Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes)
on the Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date, except
that with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the
nominee of the Depository Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.),
payments will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the
account designated by such nominee. Such checks shall be mailed to the Person
entitled thereto at the address of such Person as it appears on the Note
Register as of the applicable Record Date without requiring that this Note be
submitted for notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this
Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any
Payment Date shall be binding upon all future holders of this Note and of any
Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in
lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available,
as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid
principal amount of this Note on a Payment Date, then the Indenture Trustee, in
the name of and on behalf of the Issuing Entity, will notify the Person who was
the Registered Holder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such Payment Date
by notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such Payment Date, and the
amount then due and payable shall be payable only upon presentation and
surrender of this Note at the address specified in such notice of final payment.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set
forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the holder hereof
or such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature
guaranteed by an "eligible guarantor institution" meeting the requirements of
the Note Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in
the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion Program ("STAMP") or such other
"signature guarantee program" as may be determined by the Note Registrar in
addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and thereupon one or more new Notes
in authorized denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be
charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.

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

         Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a Note or,
in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a Note,
covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such holder
or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not prior to the day that is one year and one
day after the date this Indenture terminates, institute against the Issuing
Entity or the Depositor, or join in any institution against the Issuing Entity
or the Depositor of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or
similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the
Indenture or the Basic Documents.

         Each Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a Note or,
in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a Note,
represents that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with the assets of a
Plan or (2) the acquisition and holding of a Note will not give rise to a
nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code as a result of any of the above-mentioned Persons being a "Party in
Interest" (within the meaning of ERISA) or Disqualified Person (within the
meaning of the Code).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly
provided in the Basic Documents, none of [Name of Owner Trustee], in its
individual capacity, [Name of Indenture Trustee], in its individual capacity,
any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, or any of their
respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or
performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder of this Note by its
acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing
Entity for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

payments will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the
account designated by such nominee. Such checks shall be mailed to the Person
entitled thereto at the address of such Person as it appears on the Note
Register as of the applicable Record Date without requiring that this Note be
submitted for notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this
Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any
Payment Date shall be binding upon all future holders of this Note and of any

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

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

         Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a Note or,
in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a Note,
covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such holder
or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not prior to the day that is one year and one
day after the date this Indenture terminates, institute against the Issuing
Entity or the Depositor, or join in any institution against the Issuing Entity
or the Depositor of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or
similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the
Indenture or the Basic Documents.

         Each Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a Note or,
in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a Note,
represents that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with the assets of a
Plan or (2) the acquisition and holding of a Note will not give rise to a
nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code as a result of any of the above-mentioned Persons being a "Party in
Interest" (within the meaning of ERISA) or Disqualified Person (within the
meaning of the Code).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly
provided in the Basic Documents, none of [Name of Owner Trustee], in its
individual capacity, [Name of Indenture Trustee], in its individual capacity,
any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, or any of their
respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or
performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder of this Note by its
acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing
Entity for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

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

         Each holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of a Note or,
in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a Note,
covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such holder
or Beneficial Owner of a Note will not prior to the day that is one year and one
day after the day this Indenture terminates, institute against the Issuing
Entity or the Depositor, or join in any institution against the Issuing Entity
or the Depositor of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or
similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the
Indenture or the Basic Documents.

         [Class B-1] Each Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of
a Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in
a Note, represents that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with the assets
of a Plan or (2) the acquisition and holding of a Note will not give rise to a
nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code as a result of any of the above-mentioned Persons being a "Party in
Interest" (within the meaning of ERISA) or Disqualified Person (within the
meaning of the Code).

         [Class B-2] Each Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Note, by acceptance of
a Note it represents that it is not a "Non-US Person".

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly
provided in the Basic Documents, none of [Name of Owner Trustee], in its
individual capacity, [Name of Indenture Trustee], in its individual capacity,
any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, or any of their
respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or
performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder of this Note by its
acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing
Entity for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

intends to transfer the Rule 144A Securities described above to the undersigned
buyer (the "Buyer").

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

         2. The Buyer warrants and represents to, and covenants with, the
Transferor and the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Indenture
as follows:

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

                  b. The Buyer considers itself a substantial, sophisticated

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

                  d. Neither the Buyer nor anyone acting on its behalf has
         offered, transferred, pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of the Rule
         144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other
         similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a
         transfer, pledge or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities, any
         interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security
         from, or otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Rule
         144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other
         similar security with, any person in any manner, or made any general
         solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or
         taken any other action, that would constitute a distribution of the
         Rule 144A Securities under the 1933 Act or that would render the
         disposition of the Rule 144A Securities a violation of Section 5 of the
         1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto, nor will it act, nor
         has it authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in such
         manner with respect to the Rule 144A Securities.

                  e. The Buyer is a "qualified institutional buyer" as that term
         is defined in Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and has completed either of
         the forms of certification to that effect attached hereto as Annex 1 or
         Annex 2. The Buyer is aware that the sale to it is being made in

         qualified institutional buyer that purchases for its own account or for
         the account of a qualified institutional buyer to whom notice is given
         that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule
         144A, or (ii) pursuant to another exemption from registration under the
         1933 Act.

         3. The Buyer warrants and represents to, and covenants with, the
Transferor and the Indenture Trustee that either (1) the Buyer is not an
employee benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") ("Plan"), or a plan

(the "Code") (also a "Plan"), and the Buyer is not directly or indirectly

named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with assets of a Plan, or (2) has provided
the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing Entity and the Servicer with an opinion of
counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture
Trustee, the Issuing Entity and the Servicer to the effect that the purchase of

constitute or result in any nonexempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing
Entity or the Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or
liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those

                              ANNEX 1 TO EXHIBIT C

            QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER STATUS UNDER SEC RULE 144A

             [FOR BUYERS OTHER THAN REGISTERED INVESTMENT COMPANIES]

         The undersigned hereby certifies as follows in connection with the Rule
144A Investment Representation to which this Certification is attached:

         1. As indicated below, the undersigned is the President, Chief

discretionary basis $______________________** in securities (except for the
excluded securities referred to below) as of the end of the Buyer's most recent

___      INSURANCE COMPANY. The Buyer is an insurance company whose primary and
         predominant business activity is the writing of insurance or the
         reinsuring of risks underwritten by insurance companies and which is
         subject to supervision by the insurance commissioner or a similar
         official or agency of a State, territory or the District of Columbia.

___      STATE OR LOCAL PLAN. The Buyer is a plan established and maintained by

         3. The term "securities" as used herein does not include (i) securities

not itself a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

are relying and will continue to rely on the statements made herein because one
or more sales to the Buyer may be in reliance on Rule 144A.

___      ___               Will the Buyer be purchasing the Rule 144A
Yes      No                Securities only for the Buyer's own account?

         6. If the answer to the foregoing question is "no", the Buyer agrees
that, in connection with any purchase of securities sold to the Buyer for the
account of a third party (including any separate account) in reliance on Rule
144A, the Buyer will only purchase for the account of a third party that at the
time is a "qualified institutional buyer" within the meaning of Rule 144A. In
addition, the Buyer agrees that the Buyer will not purchase securities for a
third party unless the Buyer has obtained a current representation letter from
such third party or taken other appropriate steps contemplated by Rule 144A to
conclude that such third party independently meets the definition of "qualified
institutional buyer" set forth in Rule 144A.

         7. The Buyer will notify each of the parties to which this
certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein.
Until such notice is given, the Buyer's purchase of Rule 144A Securities will
constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of such
purchase.

Adjustment Date. Dow Jones Telerate Screen Page 3750 means the display
designated as page 3750 on the Telerate Service or any other page as may replace
page 3750 on that service for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered
rates of major banks. If the rate does not appear on that page or any other page
as may replace that page on that service, or if the service is no longer
offered, any other service for displaying LIBOR or comparable rates as may be
selected by the Indenture Trustee after consultation with the Servicer, the rate

which deposits in the U. S. Dollars are offered by the reference banks, which

interbank market, selected by the Indenture Trustee after consultation with the

market for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the Class
Principal Balance of the Class A Notes. The Indenture Trustee will request the
principal London office of each of the reference banks to provide a quotation of
its rate. If at least two quotations are provided, the rate will be the
arithmetic mean of the quotations. If on that date fewer than two quotations are
provided as requested, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted
by one or more major banks in New York City, selected by the Indenture Trustee
after consultation with the Servicer, as of 11:00 A M , New York City time, on
that date for loans in U S Dollars to leading European banks for a period of one
month in amounts approximately equal to the Class Principal Balance of the Class
A Notes. If no quotations can be obtained, the rate will be LIBOR for the prior
Payment Date; provided however, if, under the priorities listed previously in
this paragraph, LIBOR for a Payment Date would be based on LIBOR for the
previous Payment Date for the third consecutive Payment Date, the Indenture
Trustee after consultation with the Servicer, shall select an alternative
comparable index over which the Indenture Trustee has no control, used for
determining one-month Eurodollar lending rates that is calculated and published
or otherwise made available by an independent party. LIBOR business day means
any day other than (a) a Saturday or a Sunday or (b) a day on which banking
institutions in the city of London, England or New York, New York are required
or authorized by law to be closed.

Trustee's subsequent calculation of the Note Interest Rate applicable to the
Class A, Class M-2 and Class B-1 Notes for the relevant Accrual Period, in the
absence of manifest error, will be final and binding.
