         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual

transfer, to Transferor all of NationsBanc Mortgage's right, title and interest
in and to the Participation Mortgage Loans.

                 2. Assignment of Mortgage Loans. For and in consideration of
the Consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged

otherwise convey to the Trust, its successors and assigns, all of its right,

any related files to the Trust or to any other person upon the instruction of

                  Transferor also hereby agrees to endorse or cause to be
endorsed in blank each Mortgage Note as to which Transferor is the named holder

                  At the Trust's request, NationsBanc Mortgage and Transferor

the irrevocable transfer of all legal and equitable ownership interest in the
Mortgage Loans to the Trust and its successors and assigns forever as of the

is insufficient under any applicable law or otherwise to constitute a transfer,
however, each party hereby expressly declares that it is their intention that
Transferor irrevocably grant to the Trust a 100% undivided participation
interest in Transferor's interest in the Mortgage Loans and Transferor does
hereby irrevocably grant to the Trust a 100% undivided participation interest in
the Transferor's interest in the Mortgage Loans to the Trust and its successors
and assigns forever.

                  All transfers, assignments, grants and conveyances set forth

represents and warrants to the Trust as of the date of this Agreement that the
representations and warranties made by the Transferor to the Trust in that

                  4. Custody of Loan Documents. It is agreed that NationsBanc
Mortgage shall retain physical possession of the Mortgage Loan Documents and
shall hold the Mortgage Loan Documents in trust for the benefit of the Trust and
its successors and assigns in accordance with the terms of that certain
Servicing Agreement dated as of November 1, 1996 between NationsBanc Mortgage
and the Trust.

                  5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to principles of conflicts of law.

                  6. Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in a number
of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original for all purposes and
all of which constitute, collectively, one Agreement.
