                  This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, is dated and effective
as of July 1, 2004, among ACE SECURITIES CORP., as Depositor, HOMEQ SERVICING
CORPORATION, as Servicer, WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., as Master Servicer and
Securities Administrator and HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Trustee.

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

                  The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates to be
issued hereunder in multiple classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the
entire beneficial ownership interest of the Trust Fund created hereunder. The
Trust Fund will consist of a segregated pool of assets comprised of the Mortgage
Loans and certain other related assets subject to this Agreement.

                                     REMIC I
                                     -------

                  As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the
segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other
related assets subject to this Agreement (other than the Reserve Fund) as a
REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will
be designated as "REMIC I". The Class R-I Interest will be the sole class of
"residual interests" in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined
herein). The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the REMIC I
Remittance Rate, the initial Uncertificated Balance and, solely for purposes of
satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the "latest possible
maturity date" for each of the REMIC I Regular Interests (as defined herein).
None of the REMIC I Regular Interests will be certificated.

month U.S. dollar deposits, as such rate appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of
11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Interest Determination Date; provided that if
such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the rate for such date will be
determined on the basis of the offered rates of the Reference Banks for
one-month U.S. dollar deposits, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Interest
Determination Date. In such event, the Securities Administrator will request the
principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of
its rate. If on such Interest Determination Date, two or more Reference Banks
provide such offered quotations, One-Month LIBOR for the related Interest
Accrual Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such offered quotations (rounded
upwards if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 1/16). If on such Interest
Determination Date, fewer than two Reference Banks provide such offered
quotations, One-Month LIBOR for the related Interest Accrual Period shall be the
higher of (i) LIBOR as determined on the previous Interest Determination Date
and (ii) the Reserve Interest Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, under the
priorities described above, LIBOR for an Interest Determination Date would be
based on LIBOR for the previous Interest Determination Date for the third
consecutive Interest Determination Date, the Securities Administrator shall
select an alternative comparable index (over which the Securities Administrator
has no control), used for determining one-month Eurodollar lending rates that is
calculated and published (or otherwise made available) by an independent party.
The establishment of One-Month LIBOR by the Securities Administrator and the
Securities Administrator's subsequent calculation of the One-Month LIBOR
Pass-Through Rates for the relevant Interest Accrual Period, shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be final and binding.

                          CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;
                        ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES

                  Section 2.01. CONVEYANCE OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS.

                  The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery
hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, without recourse, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer, all the right, title and
interest of the Depositor, including any security interest therein for the
benefit of the Depositor, in and to the Mortgage Loans identified on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, the rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement (including, without limitation the right to enforce the
obligations of the other parties thereto thereunder), and all other assets
included or to be included in REMIC I. Such assignment includes all interest and
principal received by the Depositor or the Servicer on or with respect to the
Mortgage Loans (other than payments of principal and interest due on such
Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date). The Depositor herewith delivers
to the Trustee and the Servicer an executed copy of the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement and the PMI Policy.

                  In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor
does hereby deliver to, and deposit with the Custodian pursuant to the Custodial
Agreement the documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan as described under
Section 2 of the Custodial Agreement (the "Mortgage Loan Documents"). In
connection with such delivery and as further described in the Custodial
Agreement, the Custodian will be required to review such Mortgage Loan Documents
and deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Seller
certifications (in the forms attached to the Custodial Agreement) with respect
to such review with exceptions noted thereon. In addition, under the Custodial
Agreement the Depositor will be required to cure certain defects with respect to
the Mortgage Loan Documents for the related Mortgage Loans after the delivery
thereof by the Depositor to the Custodian as more particularly set forth
therein.

                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
parties hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to the
custody, acceptance, inspection and release of the Mortgage Files, including,
but not limited to certain insurance policies and documents contemplated by
Section 4.12, and preparation and delivery of the certifications shall be
performed by the Custodian pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Custodial
Agreement.

                  The Depositor shall deliver or cause the Originator to deliver
to the Servicer copies of all trailing documents required to be included in the
Mortgage File at the same time the originals or certified copies thereof are
delivered to the Trustee or Custodian, such documents including the mortgagee
policy of title insurance and any Mortgage Loan Documents upon return from the
recording office. The Servicer shall not be responsible for any custodian fees
or other costs incurred in obtaining such documents and the Depositor shall
cause the Servicer to be reimbursed for any such costs the Servicer may incur in
connection with performing its obligations under this Agreement.

                  The Mortgage Loans permitted by the terms of this Agreement to
be included in the Trust are limited to (i) Mortgage Loans (which the Depositor
acquired pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, which contains, among
other representations and warranties, a representation and warranty of the
Seller that no Mortgage Loan is a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the New
Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003 or as defined in the New
Mexico Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004) and (ii) Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans (which, by definition as set forth herein and referred
to in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, are required to conform to, among
other representations and warranties, the representation and warranty of the
Seller that no Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is a "High-Cost Home Loan" as
defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003 or as
defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004.
The Depositor and the Trustee on behalf of the Trust understand and agree that
it is not intended that any mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is a
"High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective
November 27, 2003 or as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act
effective January 1, 2004.

                  Section 2.02. ACCEPTANCE OF REMIC I BY TRUSTEE.

                  The Trustee acknowledges receipt, subject to the provisions of
Section 2.01 hereof and Section 2 of the Custodial Agreement, of the Mortgage
Loan Documents and all other assets included in the definition of "REMIC I"
under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (v) (to the extent of amounts deposited into
the Distribution Account) and declares that it holds (or the Custodian on its
behalf holds) and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to
it constituting a Mortgage Loan Document, and that it holds (or the Custodian on
its behalf holds) or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in
the definition of "REMIC I" in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all
present and future Certificateholders.

                  Section 2.03. REPURCHASE OR SUBSTITUTION OF MORTGAGE LOANS.

                  (a)Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially
defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or of
a breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan that materially
and adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of
the Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, the Trustee shall promptly
notify the Seller and the Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach
and request that the Seller deliver such missing document, cure such defect or
breach within 60 days from the date the Seller was notified of such missing
document, defect or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver such missing
document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such
period, the Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC I
at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was
notified of such missing document, defect or breach, if and to the extent that
the Seller is obligated to do so under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The
Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be remitted to the
Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account and the Trustee, upon receipt of
written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release or cause
the Custodian (upon receipt of a request for release in the form attached to the
Custodial



                                       63
<PAGE>

Agreement) to release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee
shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each
case without recourse, representation or warranty, as the Seller shall furnish
to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released
pursuant hereto, and the Trustee shall not have any further responsibility with
regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as
provided above, if so provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the
Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from REMIC I (in which case it
shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 2.03(b). It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the
Seller to cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to
which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists
or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the
sole remedy respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee
and the Certificateholders.

                  In addition, promptly upon the earlier of discovery by the
Servicer or receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of the
representation or covenant of the Seller set forth in Section 5(xiv) of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement which materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Holders of the Class P Certificates in any Prepayment Charge,
the Servicer shall promptly notify the Seller and the Trustee of such breach.
The Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement to remedy such breach to the extent and in the manner set
forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

                  (b)Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for
Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected prior
to the date which is two years after the Startup Day for REMIC I.

                  As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller
substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution
shall be effected by the Seller delivering to the Trustee or the Custodian on
behalf of the Trustee, for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the
Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee, and such other
documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are
required by Section 2 of the Custodial Agreement, as applicable, together with
an Officers' Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Shortfall
Amount (as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution. The
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee shall acknowledge receipt of such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within ten Business Days thereafter,
review such documents and deliver to the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, an
initial certification pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of substitution, the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Trustee
and the Servicer a final certification pursuant to the Custodial Agreement with
respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of REMIC I
and will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions
to Certificateholders will reflect the Monthly Payment due on such Deleted
Mortgage Loan on or before the Due Date in the month of substitution, and the
Seller shall thereafter be entitled to



                                       64
<PAGE>

retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage
Loan. The Depositor shall give or cause to be given written notice to the
Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer that such substitution has taken
place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such
Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of
the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such
amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and the Servicer. Upon such
substitution, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute
part of the Trust Fund and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this
Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including all applicable
representations and warranties thereof included herein or in the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement.

                  For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the
Servicer will determine the amount (the "Substitution Shortfall Amount"), if
any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans
exceeds the aggregate of, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan,
the Scheduled Principal Balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together
with one month's interest on such Scheduled Principal Balance at the applicable
Net Mortgage Rate, plus all outstanding P&I Advances and Servicing Advances
(including Nonrecoverable P&I Advances and Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances)
related thereto. On the date of such substitution, the Seller will deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an
amount equal to the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if any, and the Trustee or
the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, upon receipt of the related Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, upon receipt of a request for release in the
form attached to the Custodial Agreement and certification by the Servicer of
such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and
the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as the
Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted
Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

                  In addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and
deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on any Trust
REMIC, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited
transactions" under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after
the startup date" under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code, or (b) any Trust REMIC
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.

                  (c)Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer
or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such
fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other
parties. In connection therewith, the Seller shall repurchase or substitute one
or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan
within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with
respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Such repurchase or substitution shall be
made by (i) the Seller if the affected Mortgage Loan's status as a non-qualified
mortgage is or results from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant
made by the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or (ii) the
Depositor, if the affected Mortgage Loan's status as a non-qualified mortgage is
a breach of no representation or warranty. Any such repurchase or



                                       65
<PAGE>

substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a).
The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released
pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it
would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.

                  (d)With respect to a breach of the representations made
pursuant to Section 5(xiv) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that
materially and adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest
therein of the Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, the Seller shall
be required to take the actions set forth in this Section 2.03.

                  (e)Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer
or receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of any representation,
warranty or covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05 which materially
and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage
Loan or Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall cure such breach in all material
respects.

                  Section 2.04. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE MASTER
                                SERVICER.

         conduct its business as presently conducted by it and to execute,
         deliver and perform, and to enter into and consummate, all transactions
         contemplated by this Agreement. The Servicer has duly authorized the
         execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, has duly
         executed and delivered this Agreement, and this Agreement, assuming due
         authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto,
         constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer,
         enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as the
         enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'
         rights generally and by general principles of equity;

                           (iii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by
         the Servicer, the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by the Servicer
         hereunder, the consummation by the Servicer of any other of the
         transactions herein contemplated, and the fulfillment of or compliance
         with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business of the
         Servicer and will not (A) result in a breach of any term or provision
         of the charter or by-laws of the Servicer or (B) conflict with, result
         in a breach, violation or acceleration of, or result in a default
         under, the terms of any other material agreement or instrument to which
         the Servicer is a party or by which it may be bound, or any statute,
         order or regulation applicable to the Servicer of any court, regulatory
         body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction
         over the Servicer; and the Servicer is not a party to, bound by, or in
         breach or violation of any indenture or other material agreement or
         instrument, or subject to or in violation of any statute, order or
         regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or
         governmental body having jurisdiction over it, which materially and
         adversely affects or, to the Servicer's knowledge, would in the future
         materially and adversely affect, (x) the ability of the Servicer to
         perform its obligations under this Agreement, (y) the business,
         operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the Servicer
         taken as a whole or (z) the legality, validity or enforceability of
         this Agreement;

                           (iv) The Servicer does not believe, nor does it have
         any reason or cause to believe, that it cannot perform each and every
         covenant made by it and contained in this Agreement;

                           (v) No litigation is pending against the Servicer
         that would materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or
         enforceability of this Agreement or the ability of the Servicer to
         service the Mortgage Loans or to perform any of its other obligations
         hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof;

                           (vi) There are no actions or proceedings against, or
         investigations known to it of, the Servicer before any court,
         administrative or other tribunal (A) that might prohibit its entering
         into this Agreement, (B) seeking to prevent the consummation of the
         transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (C) that might prohibit
         or



                                       68
<PAGE>

         materially and adversely affect the performance by the Servicer of its
         obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this
         Agreement;

                           (vii) No consent, approval, authorization or order of
         any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
         delivery and performance by the Servicer of, or compliance by the
         Servicer with, this Agreement or the consummation by it of the
         transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for such consents,
         approvals, authorizations or orders, if any, that have been obtained
         prior to the Closing Date;

                           (viii) The Servicer has fully furnished and will
         continue to fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting
         Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information
         (e.g., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower credit files to
         Equifax, Experian and Trans Union Credit Information Company or their
         successors on a monthly basis; and

                           (ix) The Servicer will not waive any Prepayment
         Charge other than in accordance with the standard set forth in Section
         3.01.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the
covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05(ix) above is breached, the
Servicer will pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, from its own
funds without any right of reimbursement, for the benefit of the Holders of the
Class P Certificates, by depositing such amount into the Collection Account
within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or receipt of notice
by the Servicer of such breach. Furthermore, notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement, any payments made by the Servicer in respect of
any waived Prepayment Charges pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed to be
paid outside of the Trust Fund.

                  It is understood and agreed that the representations,
warranties and covenants set forth in this Section 2.05 shall survive the
resignation or termination of the parties hereto, the termination of this
Agreement and the delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Custodian and shall
inure to the benefit of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Depositor and the Certificateholders and the Certificate
Insurer. Upon discovery by any such Person or the Servicer of a breach of any of
the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants which materially and
adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan, Prepayment Charge or the
interests therein of the Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, the
party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice (but in no event
later than two Business Days following such discovery) to the Trustee. Subject
to Section 8.01, unless such breach shall not be susceptible of cure within 90
days, the obligation of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.03(e) to cure
breaches shall constitute the sole remedy against the Servicer available to the
Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer respecting a breach of the
representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 2.05.

                                  ARTICLE III

                          ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
                         OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS; ACCOUNTS

                  Section 3.01. THE SERVICER TO ACT AS A SERVICER.

                  The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans
on behalf of the Trust Fund and in the best interests of and for the benefit of
the Certificateholders (as determined by the Servicer in its reasonable
judgment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective
Mortgage Loans and all applicable law and regulations and, to the extent
consistent with such terms, in the same manner in which it services and
administers similar mortgage loans for its own portfolio, giving due
consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage
lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans but without
regard to:

                           (i) any relationship that the Servicer or any
         Affiliate of the Servicer may have with the related Mortgagor;

                           (ii) the ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer
         or any Affiliate of the Servicer;

                           (iii) the Servicer's obligation to make P&I Advances
         or Servicing Advances; or

                           (iv) the Servicer's right to receive compensation for
         its services hereunder.

                  To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer
shall also seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and
interest on the Mortgage Notes related to the Mortgage Loans and shall waive (or
permit a Sub-Servicer to waive) a Prepayment Charge only under the following
circumstances: (i) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar
Mortgage Loans and such waiver is related to a default or reasonably foreseeable
default and would, in the reasonable judgement of the Servicer, maximize
recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment
Charge and the related the Mortgage Loan and, if such waiver is made in
connection with a refinancing of the related the Mortgage Loan, such refinancing
is related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default, (ii) such
Prepayment Charge is unenforceable in accordance with applicable law or the
collection of such related Prepayment Charge would otherwise violate applicable
law or (iii) the collection of such Prepayment Charge would be considered
"predatory" pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable
federal, state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and
having jurisdiction over such matters. Notwithstanding any provision in this
Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Prepayment Charge payable under the
terms of the Mortgage Note related to a Mortgage Loan is less than the amount of
the Prepayment Charge set forth in the Prepayment Charge Schedule or other
information provided to the Servicer, the Servicer shall not have any liability
or obligation with respect to such difference, and in addition shall not have
any liability or obligation to pay the amount of any uncollected Prepayment




                                       72
<PAGE>

Charge if the failure to collect such amount is the direct result of inaccurate
or incomplete information on the Prepayment Charge Schedule.

                  Subject only to the above-described servicing standards (the
"Accepted Servicing Practices") and the terms of this Agreement and of the
respective the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have full power and authority,
to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing
and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable with the goal of
maximizing proceeds of the Mortgage Loan. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Servicer in its own name is hereby authorized and empowered by
the Trustee when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment, to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trust Fund, the Certificateholders and the
Trustee or any of them, and upon written notice to the Trustee, any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or
discharge or subordination, and all other comparable instruments, with respect
to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure
proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the
ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such
properties, on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trust Fund and the
Certificateholders. The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans
in accordance with applicable state and federal law and shall provide to the
Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them thereby. The Servicer
shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules
and requirements of each insurer under any standard hazard insurance policy.
Subject to Section 3.14, the Trustee shall execute, at the written request of
the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer any special or limited powers of
attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to
carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder and furnished to the
Trustee by the Servicer, and the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of
the Servicer under such powers of attorney and shall be indemnified by the
Servicer for any cost, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee in
connection with the Servicer's use or misuse of any such power of attorney.

                  In accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer
shall make or cause to be made Servicing Advances as necessary for the purpose
of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties,
which Servicing Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from
related collections from the related Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.07, and
further as provided in Section 3.09; provided, however, the Servicer shall only
make such Servicing Advance if the related Mortgagor has not made such payment
and if the failure to make such Servicing Advance would result in the loss of
the related Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or foreclosure as result of a
tax lien. Any cost incurred by the Servicer in effecting the payment of taxes
and assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall not, for the purpose of
calculating the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or distributions
to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such the Mortgage Loan so
permit.

                  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan
and the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any related
Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Rate, reduce or increase the
principal balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of
principal) or change the final maturity date on such related Mortgage Loan
(unless, as provided in Section 3.06, the related Mortgagor is in default with
respect to the related Mortgage Loan or



                                       73
<PAGE>

such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would
both (A) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section
1001 of the Code (or final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations
promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause any Trust REMIC created hereunder to fail
to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on "prohibited
transactions" or "contributions after the startup date" under the REMIC
Provisions.

                  In the event that the Mortgage Loan Documents relating to any
Mortgage Loan contain provisions requiring the related Mortgagor to arbitrate
disputes (at the option of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust), the Trustee
hereby authorizes the Servicer to waive the Trustee's right or option to
arbitrate disputes and to send written notice of such waiver to the Mortgagor,
although the Mortgagor may still require arbitration at its option.

                  Section 3.02. SUB-SERVICING AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE SERVICER
AND SUB-SERVICERS.

                  The Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any Mortgage
Loan by a Sub- Servicer pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement; provided that
such sub-servicing arrangement and the terms of the related Sub-Servicing
Agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in a manner
consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder. Each
Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states
where the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to
the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to perform its
obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and (ii) a Freddie
Mac or Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer. Notwithstanding the provisions of
any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to
agreements or arrangements between the Servicer or a Sub-Servicer or reference
to actions taken through the Servicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain
obligated and liable to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders
for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or
liability by virtue of such Sub-Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by
virtue of indemnification from the Sub-Servicer and to the same extent and under
the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and
administering the Mortgage Loans. Every Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by
the Servicer shall contain a provision giving the successor Servicer the option
to terminate such agreement in the event a successor Servicer is appointed. All
actions of each Sub-Servicer performed pursuant to the related Sub-Servicing
Agreement shall be performed as an agent of the Servicer with the same force and
effect as if performed directly by the Servicer.

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

                  Section 3.03. SUCCESSOR SUB-SERVICERS.

                  Any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Servicer
shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement and to either itself
directly service the related Mortgage



                                       74
<PAGE>

Loans or enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor Sub-Servicer
which qualifies under Section 3.02. Any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall include
the provision that such agreement may be immediately terminated by any successor
to the Servicer (which may be the Trustee or the Master Servicer) without fee,
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer
(or any successor to the Servicer) shall, for any reason, no longer be the
Servicer of the Mortgage Loans (including termination due to a Servicer Event of
Default).

                  Section 3.04. NO CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
SUB-SERVICER, TRUSTEE OR THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.

                  Any Sub-Servicing Agreement and any other transactions or
services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer shall be deemed
to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone and the Master Servicer,
the Trustee and the Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and
shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to
any Sub-Servicer except as set forth in Section 3.05.

                  Section 3.05. ASSUMPTION OR TERMINATION OF SUB-SERVICING
AGREEMENT BY SUCCESSOR SERVICER.

                  In connection with the assumption of the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities and of the authority, power and rights of the Servicer
hereunder by a successor Servicer (which may be the Trustee or the Master
Servicer) pursuant to Section 8.02, it is understood and agreed that the
Servicer's rights and obligations under any Sub-Servicing Agreement then in
force between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer shall be assumed simultaneously by
such successor Servicer without act or deed on the part of such successor
Servicer; provided, however, that any successor Servicer may terminate the
Sub-Servicer.

                  The Servicer shall, upon the reasonable request of the Master
Servicer, but at its own expense, deliver to the assuming party documents and
records relating to each Sub-Servicing Agreement and an accounting of amounts
collected and held by it and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the
orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreements to the assuming
party.

                  The Servicing Fee payable to any such successor Servicer shall
be payable from payments received on the Mortgage Loans in the amount and in the
manner set forth in this Agreement.

                  Section 3.06. COLLECTION OF CERTAIN MORTGAGE LOAN PAYMENTS.

                  The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all
payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and
shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and
Accepted Servicing Practices, follow such collection procedures as it would
follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held
for its own account. Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its
discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, penalty interest
or (ii) extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for
a period of not greater than 180 days; provided that any extension pursuant to
this clause shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for
purposes of any computation hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing,



                                       75
<PAGE>

in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the
Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Servicer, consistent with
Accepted Servicing Practices may waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage
Loan (including modifications that change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment
of principal or interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage
Loan), accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the
Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan, or consent
to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant
indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Servicer's determination such waiver,
modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the
interests of the Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer (taking into
account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action).

                  Section 3.07. COLLECTION OF TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND SIMILAR
ITEMS; SERVICING ACCOUNTS.

                  To the extent the terms of a Mortgage provide for Escrow
Payments, the Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the
"Servicing Accounts"), into which all collections from the related Mortgagors
(or related advances from Sub-Servicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments,
fire, flood, and hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items for the account
of the Mortgagors ("Escrow Payments") shall be deposited and retained. Servicing
Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Servicer shall deposit in the Servicing
Accounts on a daily basis and in no event later than the second Business Day
after receipt, and retain therein, all Escrow Payments collected on account of
the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of any such
items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from
a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect timely payment of taxes,
assessments, fire, flood, and hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items;
(ii) reimburse itself out of related collections for any Servicing Advances made
pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section
3.11 (with respect to fire, flood and hazard insurance); (iii) refund to
Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if
required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing
Account; or (v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of
the Servicer's obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans
under this Agreement in accordance with Article X. As part of its servicing
duties, the Servicer shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing
Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned
on funds in the Servicing Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from
its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer shall not be obligated to collect Escrow Payments if the
related Mortgage Loan does not require such payments but the Servicer shall
nevertheless be obligated to make Servicing Advances as provided in Section 3.01
and Section 3.11. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Servicing
Accounts any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time
withdraw such amount from the Servicing Accounts, any provision to the contrary
notwithstanding.

                  To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow
Payments, the Servicer (i) shall determine whether any such payments are made by
the Mortgagor in a manner and at a time that is necessary to avoid the loss of
the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax
lien and (ii) shall ensure that all insurance required to be maintained on the
Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Agreement is maintained. If any such



                                       76
<PAGE>

payment has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with
respect to the Mortgage Loan being imposed, the Servicer shall, promptly and to
the extent required to avoid loss of the Mortgaged Property, advance or cause to
be advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property
unless the Servicer determines the advance to be nonrecoverable. The Servicer
assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall effect
payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor's faithful performance
in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make

                  The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection
Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment
charges, assumption fees or other similar fees need not be deposited by the
Servicer in the Collection Account and may be retained by the Servicer as
additional compensation. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the
Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at
any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding.

                  (b)On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Securities Administrator
shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the
"Distribution Account"), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee, the Trust
Fund and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall
deliver to the Securities Administrator in immediately available funds for
deposit in the Distribution Account on or before [1:00 pm] New York time on the
Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Distribution Amount
(calculated without regard to the references in clause (2) of the definition
thereof to amounts that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account) for the
related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account and the
amount of all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer in connection with
the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans then on deposit in the
Collection Account and the amount of any funds reimbursable to an Advance
Financing Person pursuant to Section 3.25 of this Agreement. If the balance on
deposit in a Collection Account exceeds $100,000 as of the commencement of
business on any Business Day and the Collection Account constitute an Eligible
Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of "Eligible Account,"
the Servicer shall, on or before 5:00 p.m. New York time on such Business Day,
withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable
to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator or the Seller pursuant to Section 3.09(a) and shall pay such
amounts to the Persons entitled thereto.

                  With respect to any remittance received by the Securities
Administrator on or after the first Business Day following the Business Day on
which such payment was due, the Securities Administrator shall send written
notice thereof to the Servicer. The Servicer shall pay to the Securities
Administrator interest on any such late payment by the Servicer at an annual
rate equal to Prime Rate (as defined in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL) plus one
percentage point, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by
applicable law. Such interest shall be paid by the Servicer to the Securities
Administrator on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period
commencing with the day following such first Business Day and ending with the
Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. The payment by the
Servicer of any such interest, or the failure of the Securities Administrator to
notify the Servicer of such interest, shall not be deemed an extension of time
for payment or a waiver of any Event of Default by the Servicer.

                  (c)Funds in the Collection Account and funds in the
Distribution Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with
the provisions set forth in Section 3.10. The Servicer shall give notice to the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer of the location of
the Collection Account when established and prior to any change thereof. The
Securities Administrator shall give notice to the Servicer and the



                                       78
<PAGE>

Depositor of the location of the Distribution Account when established and prior
to any change thereof.

                  (d)Funds held in the Collection Account at any time may be
delivered by the Servicer in immediately available funds to the Securities
Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account. In the event the Servicer
shall deliver to the Securities Administrator for deposit in the Distribution
Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time
request that the Securities Administrator withdraw such amount from the
Distribution Account and remit to it any such amount, any provision herein to
the contrary notwithstanding. In no event shall the Securities Administrator
incur liability as a result of withdrawals from the Distribution Account at the
direction of the Servicer in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
In addition, the Servicer shall deliver to the Securities Administrator no later
than the Servicer Remittance Date the amounts set forth in clauses (i) through
(iv) below:

                           (i) any P&I Advances, as required pursuant to Section
         5.03;

                           (ii) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to
         Section 3.21(d) or 3.21(f) in connection with any REO Property;

                           (iii) any amounts to be paid in connection with a
         purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section
         10.01; and

                           (iv) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to
         Section 3.22 in connection with any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.

         Mortgage Loans with respect to which such P&I Advances were made in

<PAGE>

                           (iv) to pay to itself as servicing compensation (in
         addition to the Servicing Fee) on the Servicer Remittance Date any
         interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the
         Collection Account;

                           (v) to pay itself or the Seller, as the case may be,

         purchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 3.13(c) all
         amounts received thereon not included in the Purchase Price or the
         Substitution Shortfall Amount;

                           (vi) to reimburse itself (including any successor
         Servicer) for any P&I Advance or Servicing Advance previously made by
         it which it has determined to be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or a
         Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance in accordance with the provisions of
         Section 5.03;

                           (vii) to reimburse itself or the Depositor for
         expenses incurred by or reimbursable to it or the Depositor, as the
         case may be, pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 7.03;

                           (viii) to reimburse itself or the Trustee, as the
         case may be, for expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach
         or defect giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 of
         this Agreement that were included in the Purchase Price of the related
         Mortgage Loan, including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of
         the purchase obligation;

                           (ix) to pay, or to reimburse itself for advances in
         respect of, expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan

                           (x) to pay to itself any Prepayment Interest Excess
         on the Mortgage Loans to the extent not retained pursuant to Section

withdrawal from the Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of
it, pursuant to subclauses (ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix) and (x)
above.

                  (b) The Securities Administrator shall, from time to time,
make withdrawals from the Distribution Account, for any of the following

                           (ii) to pay to itself, the Custodian, the Master

         Section 9.05 or any other provision of this Agreement and any
         Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses;

                           (iii) to reimburse itself or the Master Servicer

                  Section 3.10. INVESTMENT OF FUNDS IN THE INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS.

                  (a)The Servicer may direct, by means of written directions
(which may be standing directions), any depository institution maintaining the
Collection Account to invest the funds in such Collection Account (for purposes
of this Section 3.10, an "Investment Account") in one or more Permitted
Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable
on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on
which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this
Agreement, if a Person other than the Securities Administrator is the obligor
thereon, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are required to be
withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Securities
Administrator is the obligor on such Permitted Investment. Amounts in the
Distribution Account may be invested in Permitted Investments as directed in
writing by the Master Servicer and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no
later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds
are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a
Person other than the Securities Administrator is the obligor thereon, and (ii)
no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from
such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Securities Administrator is the
obligor thereon. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity,
unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds shall be made in the name of
the Trustee (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the
Trustee. The Securities Administrator shall be entitled to sole possession over
each such investment in the Distribution Account and, subject to subsection (b)
below, the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing
any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Securities Administrator
or its agent, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title
to such investment to the Trustee or its nominee. In the event amounts on
deposit in the Collection Account are at any time invested in a Permitted
Investment payable on demand, the party with investment discretion over such
Investment Account shall:



                                       81
<PAGE>

                           (x) consistent with any notice required to be given
                  thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last
                  day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder
                  in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then
                  payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn
                  on such date; and

                           (y) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder
                  promptly upon receipt by such party of written notice from the
                  Servicer that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a
                  Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit
                  in the Investment Account.

                  (b)All income and gain realized from the investment of funds
deposited in the Collection Account, shall be for the benefit of the Servicer
and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.09. The
Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account the amount of any loss incurred
in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such account
immediately upon realization of such loss. All earnings and gain realized from
the investment of funds deposited in the Distribution Account shall be for the
benefit of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall remit from its own
funds for deposit into the Distribution Account the amount of any loss incurred
on Permitted Investments in the Distribution Account.

                  (c)Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted
Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any
Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 9.01 and Section
9.02(a)(v), shall, at the written direction of the Servicer, take such action as
may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the
institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

                  (d)The Trustee, the Master Servicer or their respective
Affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed
to be in the Trustee's or the Master Servicer's economic self-interest for (i)
serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder servicing agent,
custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments,
(ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments
and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Permitted Investments. Such
compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable
to the Trustee or the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.09 or 3.10 or
otherwise payable in respect of Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses. Such
additional compensation shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund.

                  Section 3.11. MAINTENANCE OF HAZARD INSURANCE, ERRORS AND
OMISSIONS AND FIDELITY COVERAGE AND PRIMARY MORTGAGE INSURANCE.

                  (a)The terms of each Mortgage Note require the related
Mortgagor to maintain fire, flood and hazard insurance policies. To the extent
such policies are not maintained, the Servicer shall cause to be maintained for
each Mortgaged Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is
customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which
is at least equal to the lesser of the current principal



                                       82
<PAGE>

balance of such Mortgage Loan and the amount necessary to compensate fully for
any damage or loss to the improvements which are a part of such property on a
replacement cost basis, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as
is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in the
related hazard insurance policy. The Servicer shall also cause to be maintained
fire and hazard insurance on each REO Property with extended coverage as is
customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which
is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the
improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding
principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO
Property. The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all
reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard
policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies
(other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property
subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, subject to the terms and
conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the
Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.09, if received
in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal
pursuant to Section 3.21, if received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost
incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the
purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the
unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the
terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no
earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor
other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time
be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged
Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal
Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood
hazards, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in
respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser
of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the
maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property
under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such
Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).

                  In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a
blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of A:X or better
in Best's Key Rating Guide or otherwise acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac
insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall
conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations to cause fire and
hazard insurance to be maintained on the Mortgaged Properties, it being
understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which
case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained
on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the
first two sentences of this Section 3.11, and there shall have been one or more
losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Collection
Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket
policy because of such deductible clause. In connection with its activities as
administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare
and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, the Trust Fund and the
Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer, claims under any such blanket
policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.



                                       83
<PAGE>

                  (b)The Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this
Agreement a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions for
failure in the performance of its respective obligations under this Agreement,
which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the
requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac if it were the purchaser of the
Mortgage Loans, unless the Servicer, has obtained a waiver of such requirements
from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. The Servicer shall also maintain a fidelity bond
in the form and amount that would meet the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie
Mac, unless the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Fannie
Mae or Freddie Mac. The Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this
provision if an Affiliate of the Servicer, has such errors and omissions and
fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or fidelity
bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer. Any such errors
and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by its terms not be cancelable
without thirty days' prior written notice to the Trustee.

                  (c)The Servicer shall not take any action that would result in
noncoverage under any applicable primary mortgage insurance policy of any loss
which, but for the actions of the Servicer would have been covered thereunder.
The Servicer shall use its best efforts to keep in force and effect any
applicable primary mortgage insurance policy and, to the extent that the related
Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance, any other
primary mortgage insurance applicable to any Mortgage Loan. Except as required
by applicable law or the related Mortgage Loan Documents, the Servicer shall not
cancel or refuse to renew any such primary mortgage insurance policy that is in
effect at the date of the initial issuance of the related Mortgage Note and is
required to be kept in force hereunder.

                  The Servicer agrees to present on behalf of the Trustee and
the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer claims to the applicable
insurer under any other primary mortgage insurance policies and, in this regard,
to take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under
any primary mortgage insurance policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans.
Pursuant to Section 3.08, any amounts collected by the Servicer under any
primary mortgage insurance policies shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.09.

                  Section 3.12. ENFORCEMENT OF DUE-ON-SALE CLAUSES; ASSUMPTION
AGREEMENTS.

                  The Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of any
conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any related Mortgagor (whether by
absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor
remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage),
exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the
"due-on-sale" clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the
Servicer shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so.
If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce
such "due-on-sale" clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the
proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Servicer shall enter into an
assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such
property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such
person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by
applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is also
authorized to enter into a substitution of liability



                                       84
<PAGE>

agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released
from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes
liable under the Mortgage Note, provided that no such substitution shall be
effective unless such person satisfies the then current underwriting criteria of
the Servicer for mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans. In connection
with any assumption or substitution, the Servicer shall apply such underwriting
standards and follow such practices and procedures in accordance with customary
and prudent mortgage underwriting practices. The Servicer shall not take or
enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the
extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in
writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance
policy. Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption or
substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the Servicer as
additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such assumption, no
material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related
Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified,
except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof. The Servicer shall
notify the Trustee (or the Custodian) that any such substitution or assumption
agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the executed original
of such substitution or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to
the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of
such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments
constituting a part thereof.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision
of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or
any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of
a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any
assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any
reason whatever. For purposes of this Section 3.12, the term "assumption" is
deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the
Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability
agreement.

                  Section 3.13. REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED MORTGAGE LOANS.

                  (a)The Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with
Accepted Servicing Practices, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert
the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and
continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for
collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.06. The Servicer shall
be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such
proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable
as Servicing Advances by the Servicer as contemplated in Sections 3.09 and 3.21.
The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged
Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Servicer shall
not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property
unless it shall determine in its discretion that such restoration will increase
the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to
itself for such expenses. In addition, the Servicer may charge off any second
lien Mortgage Loan which is greater than 180 days delinquent and for which the
related first lien is not a Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement if it has
made a Final Recovery Determination with respect to such second lien Mortgage
Loan. Any such charged-off second lien Mortgage Loan shall be treated as a
liquidated Mortgage Loan, giving rise to a Realized Loss. The Servicer shall
have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances or P&I



                                       85
<PAGE>

Advances with respect to any charged-off Mortgage Loan and shall not be entitled
to the Servicing Fee with respect to such charged-off Mortgage Loan for the
period following the date on which such second lien Mortgage Loan was charged
off. Any Subsequent Recoveries received with respect to any such charged-off
Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section
3.08.

                  (b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure,
in the event the Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge
of the presence of, hazardous or toxic substances or wastes on the related
Mortgaged Property, or if the Trustee otherwise requests, the Servicer shall
cause an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be
conducted by a qualified inspector. Upon completion of the inspection, the
Servicer shall promptly provide the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the
Depositor with a written report of the environmental inspection.

                  After reviewing the environmental inspection report, the
Master Servicer shall determine how the Servicer shall proceed with respect to
the Mortgaged Property. In the event (a) the environmental inspection report
indicates that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic
substances or wastes and (b) the Master Servicer directs the Servicer to proceed
with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer
shall be reimbursed for all reasonable costs associated with such foreclosure or
acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and any related environmental
clean-up costs, as applicable, from the related Liquidation Proceeds, or if the
Liquidation Proceeds are insufficient to fully reimburse the Servicer, the
Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from amounts in the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.09. In the event the Master Servicer directs the
Servicer not to proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure, the Servicer shall be reimbursed from general collections for all
Servicing Advances made with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.09.

                  (c)The Servicer shall have the right to purchase from REMIC I
any defaulted Mortgage Loan that is 90 days or more delinquent, which the
Servicer determines in good faith will otherwise become subject to foreclosure
proceedings (evidence of such determination to be delivered in writing to the
Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Servicer and the Trustee,
prior to purchase), at a price equal to the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price
for any Mortgage Loan purchased hereunder shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the
Servicer of such deposit, shall release or cause to be released to the Servicer
the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse,
representation or warranty, as the Servicer shall furnish and as shall be
necessary to vest in the Servicer title to any Mortgage Loan released pursuant
hereto.

                  (d)Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery
Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of
Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan,
will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the
Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and P&I Advances,
pursuant to Section 3.09(a)(ii) or (a)(iii); second, to



                                       86
<PAGE>

accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final
Recovery Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on
which such amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final
Recovery Determination; and third, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage
Loan. If the amount of the recovery so allocated to interest is less than the
full amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on such Mortgage Loan, the amount
of such recovery will be allocated by the Servicer as follows: first, to unpaid
Servicing Fees; and second, to the balance of the interest then due and owing.
The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be
reimbursed to the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.09(a)(iii). The portion of the
recovery allocated to interest (net of unpaid Servicing Fees) and the portion of
the recovery allocated to principal of the Mortgage Loan shall be applied as
follows: first, to reimburse the Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing
Advance or P&I Advances in accordance with Section 3.09(a)(ii) and any other
amounts reimbursable to the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.09, and second, as
part of the amounts to be transferred to the Distribution Account in accordance
with Section 3.08(b).

                  Section 3.14. TRUSTEE TO COOPERATE; RELEASE OF MORTGAGE FILES.

                  (a)Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage
Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full has
been escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes for payment to
Certificateholders on the next Distribution Date, the Servicer will promptly
furnish to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, two copies of a request for
release substantially in the form attached to the Custodial Agreement signed by
a Servicing Officer or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will, in
lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer (which
certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received
in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the
Collection Account have been or will be so deposited) and shall request that the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, deliver to the Servicer the related
Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Custodian, on
behalf of the Trustee, shall within five (5) Business Days release the related
Mortgage File to the Servicer and the Trustee and Custodian shall have no
further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such payment
in full, the Servicer is authorized, to give, as agent for the Trustee, as the
mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured the Mortgage Loan, an instrument of
satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without recourse) regarding the
Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or
assignment, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons
entitled thereto against receipt therefor of such payment, it being understood
and agreed that no expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of
satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the
Collection Account.

                  (b)From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall execute such documents as
shall be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by the Servicer (in form
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are necessary to the prosecution of
any such proceedings. The Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, upon the
request of the Servicer, and delivery to the Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee, of two copies of a request for release signed by a Servicing Officer
substantially in the form attached to the Custodial Agreement (or in a mutually
agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face,
originate from a Servicing Officer), release within five (5) Business Days the
related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the



                                       87
<PAGE>

Servicer. Such trust receipt shall obligate the Servicer to return the Mortgage
File to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, when the need therefor by the
Servicer no longer exists unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which
case, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to that
hereinabove specified, the Mortgage File shall be released by the Custodian, on
behalf of the Trustee, to the Servicer.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with a Principal
Prepayment in full of any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer may request release
of the related Mortgage File from the Custodian, in accordance with the
provisions of the Custodial Agreement, in the event the Servicer fails to do so.

                  Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee
shall execute and deliver to the Servicer, any court pleadings, requests for
trustee's sale or other documents prepared and delivered to the Trustee and
reasonably acceptable to it and necessary to the foreclosure or trustee's sale
in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain
judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a
deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each such
certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be
executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or
pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the
Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except
for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or
trustee's sale. So long as no Servicer Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, the Servicer shall have the right to execute any and all such
court pleadings, requests and other documents as attorney-in-fact for, and on
behalf of the Trustee.

                  Section 3.15. SERVICING COMPENSATION.

                  As compensation for the activities of the Servicer, hereunder,
the Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each
Mortgage Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such
Mortgage Loan, subject to Section 3.22. In addition, the Servicer shall be
entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of Insurance Proceeds or
Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.09(a)(iii) and out of
amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent
permitted by Section 3.21. The right to the Servicing Fee may not be transferred
in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the
Servicer's responsibilities under this Agreement to the extent permitted herein.

                  Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption
fees, late payment charges and other miscellaneous fees (other than Prepayment
Charges) shall be retained by the Servicer only to the extent such fees or
charges are received by the Servicer. The Servicer shall also be entitled
pursuant to Section 3.09(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account and
pursuant to Section 3.21(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional
servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein,
subject to Section 3.10. In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to retain
or withdraw from the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.09(a)(x), any
Prepayment Interest Excess as additional servicing compensation. The Servicer
shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection



                                       88
<PAGE>

with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided herein.

                  Section 3.16. COLLECTION ACCOUNT STATEMENTS.

                  Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the
Servicer shall forward to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the
Trustee and the Depositor a statement prepared by the institution at which the
Collection Account is maintained setting forth the status of the Collection
Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date and showing, for
the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and
withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in
Section 3.08(a) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.09.
Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Securities Administrator to
any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Securities
Administrator as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the
expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the
Servicer to the Securities Administrator.

                  Section 3.17. STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE.

                  Not later than March 15th of each calendar year commencing in
2005, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the
Depositor an Officers' Certificate in a form acceptable for filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to Form 8-K or other required
form (upon which the Master Servicer can conclusively rely in connection with
its obligations under Section 5.06) stating, as to each signatory thereof, that
(i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding year and of
performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers' supervision
and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the
Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout
such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such
obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature
and status thereof. Copies of any such statement shall be provided by the
Trustee to the Certificate Insurer and any Certificateholder, upon request at
the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the
Servicer to the Trustee.

                  Section 3.18. INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS' SERVICING
REPORT.

                  Not later than March 15th of each calendar year commencing in
2005, the Servicer, at its expense, shall cause a nationally recognized firm of
independent certified public accountants to furnish to the Servicer a report in
a form acceptable for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an
exhibit to Form 8-K or other required form stating that (i) it has obtained a
letter of representation regarding certain matters from the management of the
Servicer which includes an assertion that the Servicer has complied with certain
minimum residential mortgage loan servicing standards, identified in the Uniform
Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers established by the Mortgage
Bankers Association of America, with respect to the servicing of residential
mortgage loans during the most recently completed fiscal year and (ii) on the
basis of an examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, such
representation is fairly stated and such firm has determined that the Servicer
has complied in all material respects, subject to such



                                       89
<PAGE>


exceptions and other qualifications that may be appropriate. Immediately upon
receipt of such report, the Servicer shall furnish a copy of such report to the
Master Servicer, the Trustee and each Rating Agency. Copies of such statement
shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and the Certificate
Insurer upon request at the Servicer's expense, provided that such statement is
delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.

                  Section 3.19. ANNUAL CERTIFICATION.

                  (a)The Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer, on or
before March 15th of each calendar year beginning in 2005 (or, if any such day
is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) or such
alternative date reasonably specified by the Master Servicer which shall occur
not later than 15 days prior to the date any Form 10-K is required to be filed
with the Commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Such
certification shall be signed by the senior officer in charge of servicing of
the Servicer. In addition, the Servicer shall provide such other information
with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the servicing and administration thereof
within the control of the Servicer which shall be required to enable the Master
Servicer to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Section 5.06 hereof.

                  (b)The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor and their
respective officers, directors, agents and affiliates from and against any
losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and
related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based
upon a breach by the Servicer or any of its officers, directors, agents or
affiliates of its obligations under this Section 3.19 or the Servicer's
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith. Such
indemnity shall survive the termination or resignation of the parties hereto or
the termination of this Agreement. If the indemnification provided for herein is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee and the Depositor, then the Servicer agrees that it
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Master Servicer, the
Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Depositor as a result of the
losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee and the Depositor in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee and the Depositor on the one hand and the Servicer on
the other in connection with a breach of the Servicer's obligations under this
Section 3.19.

                  Section 3.20. ACCESS TO CERTAIN DOCUMENTATION.

                  The Servicer shall provide to the Office of Thrift
Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance
regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificate Owner,
access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable
laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only
upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the
Servicer designated by it. Nothing in this Section 3.20 shall limit the
obligation of the Servicer to comply with any applicable law prohibiting
disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of the
Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such
obligation shall not



                                       90
<PAGE>

constitute a breach of this Section. Nothing in this Section 3.20 shall require
the Servicer to collect, create, collate or otherwise generate any information
that it does not generate in its usual course of business. The Servicer shall
not be required to make copies of or ship documents to any Person unless
provisions have been made for the reimbursement of the costs thereof.

                  Section 3.21. TITLE, MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSITION OF REO
PROPERTY.

                  (a) The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall
be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, on behalf of the Trust Fund
and for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Servicer, on behalf of REMIC
I, shall either sell any REO Property by the close of the third calendar year
following the calendar year in which REMIC I acquires ownership of such REO
Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or request from the
Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the day on which the
three-year grace period would otherwise expire an extension of the three-year
grace period, unless the Servicer had delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the effect that the
holding by REMIC I of such REO Property subsequent to three years after its
acquisition will not result in the imposition on any Trust REMIC created
hereunder of taxes on "prohibited transactions" thereof, as defined in Section
860F of the Code, or cause any Trust REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC under Federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. The
Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the
Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in
a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or
result in the receipt by any Trust REMIC created hereunder of any "income from
non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code,
or any "net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under
the REMIC Provisions.

                  (b) The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected
and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property separate and
apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain
with respect to REO Properties an account held in trust for the Trustee, on
behalf of the Trust Fund and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (the "REO
Account"), which shall be an Eligible Account. The Servicer shall be permitted
to allow the Collection Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to the
maintenance of separate ledgers for each REO Property. The Servicer shall be
entitled to retain or withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited in
the REO Account.

                  (c) The Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject
only to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any
and all things in connection with any REO Property as are consistent with the
manner in which the Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by it
or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period as the Servicer
deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders. In connection
therewith, the Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, on a daily
basis in the REO Account all revenues received by it with respect to an REO
Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation,
management and maintenance of such REO Property including, without limitation:



                                       91
<PAGE>

                           (i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect
         of such REO Property;

                           (ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect
         of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien
         thereon; and

                           (iii) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain
         such REO Property.

                  To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with
respect to an REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in
clauses (i) through (iii) above with respect to such REO Property, the Servicer
shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes
if, but only if, the Servicer would make such advances if the Servicer owned the
REO Property and if in the Servicer's judgment, the payment of such amounts will
be recoverable from the rental or sale of the REO Property.

                  Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer,
on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall not:

                           (i) enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with
         respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give
         rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

                           (ii) permit any amount to be received or accrued
         under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from
         Real Property;

                           (iii) authorize or permit any construction on any REO
         Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement
         thereon, and then only if more than ten percent of the construction of
         such building or other improvement was completed before default on the
         related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of
         Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

                           (iv) allow any Person to Directly Operate any REO
         Property on any date more than 90 days after its date of acquisition by
         the Trust Fund;

unless, in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel,
provided to the Servicer and the Trustee, to the effect that such action will
not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within
the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held by
REMIC I, in which case the Servicer may take such actions as are specified in
such Opinion of Counsel.

                  The Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for
the operation and management of any REO Property, provided that:

                           (i) the terms and conditions of any such contract
         shall not be inconsistent herewith;

                           (ii) any such contract shall require, or shall be
         administered to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs
         and expenses incurred in connection with



                                       92
<PAGE>

         the operation and management of such REO Property, including those
         listed above and remit all related revenues (net of such costs and
         expenses) to the Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event later
         than thirty days following the receipt thereof by such Independent
         Contractor;

                           (iii) none of the provisions of this Section 3.21(c)
         relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such
         Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Servicer of any
         of its duties and obligations to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust
         Fund and for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to the
         operation and management of any such REO Property; and

                           (iv) The Servicer shall be obligated with respect
         thereto to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties
         and obligations in connection with the operation and management of such
         REO Property.

                  The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement
with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties
and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Servicer by such
Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit
or modify such indemnification. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees
owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the
Servicer's compensation pursuant to Section 3.15 is sufficient to pay such fees.
Any such agreement shall include a provision that such agreement may be
immediately terminated by the Trustee (as successor Servicer) or any other
successor Servicer (including the Master Servicer) without fee, in the event the
Servicer shall for any reason, no longer be the Servicer of the Mortgage Loans
(including termination due to a Servicer Event of Default).

                  (d)In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section
3.21(c), the Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the REO
Account for any REO Property: (i) to pay itself unpaid Servicing Fees in respect
of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub-Servicer
for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances made in respect of such REO
Property or the related Mortgage Loan. On the Servicer Remittance Date, the
Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by it and deposit into
the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.08(d)(ii), for
distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 5.01,
the income from the related REO Property received during the prior calendar
month, net of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.21(c) or this Section
3.21(d).

                  (e)Subject to the time constraints set forth in Section
3.21(a), each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price
and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer shall deem necessary or
advisable, as shall be normal and usual in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices.

                  (f)The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any amount
required by law to be remitted to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan
and net of any payment or reimbursement to the Servicer as provided above, shall
be deposited in the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.08(d)(ii)
on the Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the receipt thereof for
distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance



                                       93
<PAGE>

with Section 5.01. Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in
the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other
consideration).

                  (g)The Servicer shall file information returns (and shall
provide a certification of a Servicing Officer to the Master Servicer that such
filings have been made) with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest
received in a trade or business, reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any
Mortgaged Property and cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any
Mortgaged Property as required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code,
respectively. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the
reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the
Code.

                  Section 3.22. OBLIGATIONS OF THE SERVICER IN RESPECT OF
PREPAYMENT INTEREST SHORTFALLS; RELIEF ACT INTEREST SHORTFALLS.

                  The Servicer shall deliver to the Securities Administrator for
deposit into the Distribution Account on or before 1:00 pm New York time on the
Servicer Remittance Date from its own funds an amount equal to the lesser of (i)
the aggregate amount of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls attributable to
Principal Prepayments in full on the Mortgage Loans for the related Distribution
Date resulting solely from voluntary Principal Prepayments received by the
Servicer during the related Prepayment Period and (ii) the aggregate amount of
the related Servicing Fees payable to the Servicer on such Distribution Date
with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall not have the right to
reimbursement for any amounts remitted to the Securities Administrator in
respect of this Section 3.22. The Servicer shall not be obligated to pay the
amounts set forth in this Section 3.22 with respect to shortfalls resulting from
the application of the Relief Act.

                  Section 3.23. OBLIGATIONS OF THE SERVICER IN RESPECT OF
MORTGAGE RATES AND MONTHLY PAYMENTS.

                  In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or
liability with respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to
adjustments to Mortgage Rates, Monthly Payments or Stated Principal Balances
that were made by the Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the
related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or
receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Securities
Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account from its own funds the
amount of any such shortfall and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust
Fund, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer, the
Depositor and any successor Servicer in respect of any such liability. Such
indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.23 shall not limit the ability of
the Servicer to seek recovery of any such amounts from the related Mortgagor
under the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, to the extent
permitted by applicable law.

                  Section 3.24. RESERVE FUND.

                  (a)No later than the Closing Date, the Securities
Administrator shall establish and maintain a separate, segregated trust account
entitled, "Reserve Fund, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., in trust for the registered
holders of ACE Securities Corp. Home Equity Loan Trust, Series 2004-RM1, Asset
Backed Pass-Through Certificates." On the Closing



                                       94
<PAGE>

Date, the Depositor will deposit, or cause to be deposited, into the Reserve
Fund $1,000. In addition, the amount deposited in the Reserve Fund shall be
increased by any payments received by the Securities Administrator under the Cap
Contract relating to the Group I Mortgage Loans and deposited into Reserve Fund
for the benefit of the Class A-1 Certificates, Mezzanine Certificates and the
Class B Certificates and under the Cap Contract relating to the Group II
Mortgage Loans and deposited in the Reserve Fund for the benefit of the Class
A-2 Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates.

                  (b)On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator
shall deposit into the Reserve Fund the amounts described in Section
5.01(a)(7)(ix), rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE
Certificateholders, and Section 5.01(a)(7)(x). On each such Distribution Date,
the Securities Administrator shall hold all such amounts for the benefit of the
Holders of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B
Certificates and will distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Class A
Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates, in the
amounts and priorities set forth in Section 5.01(a). If no Net WAC Rate
Carryover Amounts are payable on a Distribution Date, the Securities
Administrator shall deposit, into the Reserve Fund on behalf of the Class CE
Certificateholders, from amounts otherwise distributable to the Class CE
Certificateholders, an amount such that when added to other amounts already on
deposit in the Reserve Fund, the aggregate amount on deposit therein is equal to
$1,000.

                  (c)For federal and state income tax purposes, the Class CE
Certificateholders will be deemed to be the owners of the Reserve Fund and all
amounts deposited into the Reserve Fund (other than the initial deposit therein
of $1,000) shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC II to the Holders of
the Class CE Certificates. Upon the termination of the Trust Fund, or the
payment in full of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the
Class B Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Reserve Fund will
be released by the Trust Fund and distributed to the Class CE Certificateholders
or their designees. The Reserve Fund will be part of the Trust Fund but not part
of any REMIC and any payments to the Holders of the Class A Certificates, the
Mezzanine Certificates or the Class B Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover
Amounts will not be payments with respect to a "regular interest" in a REMIC
within the meaning of Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).

                  (d)By accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE
Certificateholder hereby agrees that the Securities Administrator will deposit
into the Reserve Fund the amounts described above on each Distribution Date
rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE Certificateholders. By
accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE Certificateholder further agrees
that its agreement to such action by the Securities Administrator is given for
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is
acknowledged by such acceptance.

                  (e)At the direction of the Holders of a majority in Percentage
Interest in the Class CE Certificates, the Securities Administrator shall direct
any depository institution maintaining the Reserve Fund to invest the funds in
such account in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a
discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business
Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds are



                                       95
<PAGE>

required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a
Person other than the Securities Administrator or an Affiliate manages or
advises such investment, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are
required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the
Securities Administrator or an Affiliate manages or advises such investment. All
income and gain earned upon such investment shall be deposited into the Reserve
Fund. In no event shall the Securities Administrator be liable for any
investments made pursuant to this clause (e). If the Holders of a majority in
Percentage Interest in the Class CE Certificates fail to provide investment
instructions, funds on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall be held uninvested by
the Securities Administrator without liability for interest or compensation.

                  (f)For federal tax return and information reporting, the right
of the Class A Certificateholders, the Mezzanine Certificateholders and Class B
Certificateholders to receive payments from the Reserve Fund in respect of any
Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount shall be assigned a value of $255,000.00 with
respect to Certificates covered by the Group I Cap Contract and $60,000.00 with
respect to Certificates covered by the Group II Cap Contract.

                  Section 3.25. ADVANCE FACILITY.

                  (a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
(i) the Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into an advance facility
("Advance Facility") but no more than two Advance Facilities without the prior
written consent of the Trustee, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, under which (A) the Servicer sells, assigns or pledges to an advancing
person (an "Advance Financing Person") the Servicer's rights under this
Agreement to be reimbursed for any P&I Advances or Servicing Advances and/or (B)
an Advance Financing Person agrees to finance some or all P&I Advances or
Servicing Advances required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to this
Agreement and (ii) the Servicer is hereby authorized to assign its rights to the
Servicing Fee (which rights shall terminate upon the resignation, termination or
removal of the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement); it being
understood that neither the Trust Fund nor any party hereto shall have a right
or claim (including without limitation any right of offset) to any amounts for
reimbursement of P&I Advances or Servicing Advances so assigned or to the
portion of the Servicing Fee so assigned. Subject to the provisions of the first
sentence of this Section 3.25(a), no consent of the Depositor, Trustee,
Certificateholders or any other party is required before the Servicer may enter
into an Advance Facility, but the Servicer shall provide notice to the
Depositor, Master Servicer and the Trustee of the existence of any such Advance
Facility promptly upon the consummation thereof stating (a) the identity of the
Advance Financing Person and (b) the identity of any Person ("Servicer's
Assignee") who has the right to receive amounts in reimbursement of previously
unreimbursed P&I Advances or Servicing Advances. Notwithstanding the existence
of any Advance Facility under which an advancing person agrees to finance P&I
Advances and/or Servicing Advances on the Servicer's behalf, the Servicer shall
remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make P&I Advances and Servicing
Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement, and shall not be
relieved of such obligations by virtue of such Advance Facility.

                  (b)Reimbursement amounts shall consist solely of amounts in
respect of P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances made with respect to the
Mortgage Loans for which



                                       96
<PAGE>

the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in accordance with this
Agreement, assuming the Servicer had made the related P&I Advance(s) and/or
Servicing Advance(s).

                  (c)The Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor
Servicer (with, upon request, a copy to the Trustee) a detailed accounting on a
loan-by-loan basis as to amounts advanced by, pledged or assigned to, and
reimbursed to any advancing person. The successor Servicer shall be entitled to
rely on any such information provided by the predecessor Servicer, and the
successor Servicer shall not be liable for any errors in such information.

                  (d)Reimbursement amounts distributed with respect to each
Mortgage Loan shall be allocated to outstanding unreimbursed P&I Advances or
Servicing Advances (as the case may be) made with respect to that Mortgage Loan
on a "first-in, first out" (FIFO) basis. The documentation establishing any
Advance Facility shall require the Servicer to provide to the related advancing
person or its designee loan-by-loan information with respect to each such
reimbursement amount distributed to such advancing person or Advance Facility
trustee on each Distribution Date, to enable the advancing person or Advance
Facility trustee to make the FIFO allocation of each such reimbursement amount
with respect to each Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall remain entitled to be
reimbursed by the advancing person or Advance Facility trustee for all P&I
Advances and Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent the related
rights to be reimbursed therefor have not been sold, assigned or pledged to an
advancing person.

                  (e)Any amendment to this Section 3.25 or to any other
provision of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the
terms of an Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 3.25,
including amendments to add provisions relating to a successor Servicer, may be
entered into by the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Servicer
without the consent of any Certificateholder, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, provided, that the Trustee has been provided an
Opinion of Counsel that such amendment is authorized hereunder and has no
material adverse effect on the Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer,
which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting such opinion but in
any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund; provided,
further, that the amendment shall not be deemed to adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the Certificateholders if the Person
requesting the amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency (instead of
obtaining an Opinion of Counsel to such effect) stating that the amendment would
not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of the respective ratings then
assigned to the Certificates; it being understood and agreed that any such
rating letter in and of itself will not represent a determination as to the
materiality of any such amendment and will represent a determination only as to
the credit issues affecting any such rating. Prior to entering into an Advance
Facility, the Servicer shall notify the lender under such facility in writing
that: (a) the P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances financed by and/or pledged
to the lender are obligations owed to the Servicer on a non-recourse basis
payable only from the cash flows and proceeds received under this Agreement for
reimbursement of P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances only to the extent
provided herein, and neither the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator,
the Trustee nor the Trust are otherwise obligated or liable to repay any P&I
Advances and/or Servicing Advances financed by the lender; (b) the Servicer will
be responsible for remitting to the lender the



                                       97
<PAGE>

applicable amounts collected by it as Servicing Fees and as reimbursement for
P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the lender, as applicable,
subject to the restrictions and priorities created in this Agreement; and (c)
none of the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee shall
have any responsibility to calculate any amount payable under an Advance
Facility or to track or monitor the administration of the financing arrangement
between the Servicer and the lender or the payment of any amount under an
Advance Facility.

                  (f)The Servicer shall indemnify the Master Servicer, the
Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Trust Fund for any cost, liability
or expense relating to the Advance Facility including, without limitation, a
claim, pending or threatened, by an Advance Financing Person.

                  Section 3.26. THE SERVICER INDEMNIFICATION.

                  The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Certificate Insurer,
Trustee, Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator, from, and hold the
Trustee, Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator harmless against, any
loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses)
incurred by any such Person by reason of the Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties under this Agreement
or by reason of the Servicer's reckless disregard of its obligations and duties
under this Agreement. Such indemnity shall survive the termination or discharge
of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Certificate Insurer,
Servicer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator. Any
payment hereunder made by the Servicer to any such Person shall be from the
Servicer's own funds, without reimbursement from REMIC I therefor.

                  Section 3.27. CERTIFICATE INSURER ACCESS

                  Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, the Servicer shall
afford the Certificate Insurer access to its books and records concerning the
servicing of the Mortgage Loans, and shall make servicing officers available to
the Certificate Insurer to discuss the servicing of the Mortgage Loans, upon
reasonable prior notice to the Servicer, and during the Servicer's normal
business hours.

                  Section 3.28. PMI POLICY; CLAIMS UNDER THE PMI POLICY.

                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this
Article III, the Servicer shall not agree to any modification or assumption of a
PMI Mortgage Loan or take any other action with respect to a PMI Mortgage Loan
that could result in denial of coverage under the PMI Policy. The Servicer shall
notify the PMI Insurer that the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders, is
the Insured, as that term is defined in the PMI Policy, of each PMI Mortgage
Loan. The Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, prepare and file on a timely
basis with the PMI Insurer, with a copy to the Trustee, all claims which may be
made under the PMI Policy with respect to the PMI Mortgage Loans. Consistent
with all rights and obligations hereunder, the Servicer shall take all actions
required under the PMI Policy as a condition to the payment of any such claim.
Any amount received from the PMI Insurer with respect to any such PMI Mortgage
Loan shall be deposited by the Servicer into the Collection Account in
accordance with Section 3.08(a). The Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection
Account on



                                       98
<PAGE>

each Servicer Remittance Date and pay to the PMI Insurer the PMI Insurer Fee in
accordance with the terms of the PMI Policy.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                       ADMINISTRATION AND MASTER SERVICING
                  OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS BY THE MASTER SERVICER

                  Section 4.01. MASTER SERVICER.

                  The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the
obligation of the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall have full power and
authority to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in
connection with such master servicing and administration. In performing its
obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with
Accepted Master Servicing Practices. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall
oversee and consult with the Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry
out the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder, shall receive, review and
evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer
by the Servicer and shall cause the Servicer to perform and observe the
covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by the
Servicer under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall independently and
separately monitor the Servicer's servicing activities with respect to each
related Mortgage Loan, reconcile the results of such monitoring with such
information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate
corrective adjustments to the Servicer's and Master Servicer's records, and
based on such reconciled and corrected information, prepare the statements
specified in Section 5.03 and any other information and statements required to
be provided by the Master Servicer hereunder. The Master Servicer shall
reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual
remittances of the Servicer to the Distribution Account pursuant to the terms
hereof based on information provided to the Master Servicer by the Servicer.

                  The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer and the Master Servicer
with any limited powers of attorney and other documents in form as provided to
it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer and the Master Servicer to
service and administer the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property. The Trustee
shall have no responsibility for any action of the Master Servicer or the
Servicer pursuant to any such limited power of attorney and shall be indemnified
by the Master Servicer or the Servicer, as applicable, for any cost, liability
or expense incurred by the Trustee in connection with such Person's misuse of
any such power of attorney.

                  The Trustee, the Custodian and the Securities Administrator
shall provide access to the records and documentation in possession of the
Trustee, the Custodian or the Securities Administrator regarding the related
Mortgage Loans and REO Property and the servicing thereof to the
Certificateholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the
FDIC, such access being afforded only upon reasonable prior written request and
during normal business hours at the office of the Trustee, the Custodian or the
Securities Administrator; provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by
law, none of the Trustee, the Custodian or the Securities Administrator shall be
required to provide access to such records and documentation if the provision
thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor. The Trustee,
the Custodian and the Securities Administrator shall allow representatives of
the above entities to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall
provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers the Trustee's, the
Custodian's or the Securities Administrator's actual costs.



                                      100
<PAGE>

                  The Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer or the
Master Servicer upon request any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or
other documents necessary or desirable to (i) the foreclosure or trustee's sale
with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain
judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or any other Mortgage Loan
Document; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor; or (iv)
enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or any other
Mortgage Loan Document or otherwise available at law or equity.

                  Section 4.02. REMIC-RELATED COVENANTS.

                  For as long as each REMIC shall exist, the Trustee and the
Securities Administrator shall act in accordance herewith to treat such REMIC as
a REMIC, and the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall comply with any
directions of the Seller, the Servicer or the Master Servicer to assure such
continuing treatment. In particular, the Trustee shall not (a) sell or permit
the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans or of any investment of
deposits in an Account unless such sale is as a result of a repurchase of the
Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement or the Trustee has received a REMIC
Opinion prepared at the expense of the Trust Fund; and (b) other than with
respect to a substitution pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements or
Section 2.03 of this Agreement, as applicable, accept any contribution to any
REMIC after the Startup Day without receipt of a Opinion of Counsel stating that
such contribution will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event as defined in
Section 11.01(f).

                  Section 4.03. MONITORING OF SERVICER.

                  (a)The Master Servicer shall be responsible for monitoring the
compliance by the Servicer with its duties under this Agreement. In the review
of the Servicer's activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer's
certificate of the Servicer with regard to the Servicer's compliance with the
terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment,
determines that the Servicer should be terminated in accordance with the terms
hereof or that a notice should be sent pursuant to the terms hereof with respect
to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute a Servicer
Event of Default by the Servicer, the Master Servicer shall notify the Servicer,
the Seller and the Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such
notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.

                  (b)The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of the Servicer under this
Agreement and shall, in the event that the Servicer fails to perform its
obligations in accordance with this Agreement, subject to this Section and
Article VIII, cause the Trustee to terminate the rights and obligations of the
Servicer hereunder in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims and
the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out
to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith
business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage
Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own
expense, provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to prosecute or
defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer shall have
received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such
action.

<PAGE>

                  (c)The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by
the Servicer (or from amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account if the
Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all reasonable
out-of-pocket or third party costs associated with the transfer of servicing
from the predecessor Servicer (or if the predecessor Servicer is the Master
Servicer, from the Servicer immediately preceding the Master Servicer),
including without limitation, any reasonable out-of-pocket or third party costs
or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the
completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required
by the Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing
data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans
properly and effectively, upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such
costs and expenses.

                  (d)The Master Servicer shall require the Servicer to comply
with the remittance requirements and other obligations set forth in this
Agreement.

                  (e)If the Master Servicer acts as successor to the Servicer,
it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of the
terminated Servicer.

                  Section 4.04. FIDELITY BOND.

                  The Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect
a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording
coverage with respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons
acting on such Master Servicer's behalf, and covering errors and omissions in
the performance of the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder. The errors and
omissions insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and
amount generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicers or
trustees.

                  Section 4.05. POWER TO ACT; PROCEDURES.

                  The Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans
and shall have full power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the
provisions of Article XI, to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or
desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the
Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee,
customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to
consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage
Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and
Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of
the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each
case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however,
that the Master Servicer shall not (and, consistent with its responsibilities
under Section 4.03, shall not permit the Servicer to) knowingly or intentionally
take any action, or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action
reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set
forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the
case may be, would cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC or
result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited
to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the
Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the
Code) unless the Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel (but not at
the expense



                                      102

of the Master Servicer) to the effect that the contemplated action will not
would cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the
imposition of a tax upon REMIC I or REMIC II, as the case may be. The Trustee
shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon written request from a Servicing
Officer, with any powers of attorney prepared and delivered to it and reasonably
acceptable to it by empowering the Master Servicer or the Servicer to execute
and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full
release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged
Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the
Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with this Agreement, and
the Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents prepared and
delivered to it and reasonably acceptable to it, as the Master Servicer or the
Servicer may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and
administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case
in accordance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall
have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master
Servicer or the Servicer and shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer or the
Servicer, as applicable, for any cost, liability or expense incurred by the
Trustee in connection with such Person's use or misuse of any such power of
attorney). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee has been advised that it is
likely that the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such
action if taken in the name of the Trustee or that the Trustee would be
adversely affected under the "doing business" or tax laws of such state if such
action is taken in its name, the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee in
the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 9.10. In the performance of
its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent contractor and
shall not, except in those instances where it is taking action in the name of
the Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee.

                  To the extent Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale
clauses, the Master Servicer shall cause the Servicer to enforce such clauses in
accordance with this Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a
due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with
this Agreement and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is assumed, the original
Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance with this Agreement.

                  Section 4.08. DOCUMENTS, RECORDS AND FUNDS IN POSSESSION OF

delivered to the Trustee or Custodian. Any funds received by the Master Servicer
in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected by the Master
Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any
Mortgage Loan shall be remitted to the Securities Administrator for deposit in
the Distribution Account. The Master Servicer shall, and, subject to Section
3.20, shall cause the Servicer to, provide access to information and
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, its agents and
accountants at any time upon reasonable request and during



                                      103

associations, banks or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision,
the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such Office and Corporation
or examiners of any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory
authority if so required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift
Supervision or other regulatory authority, such access to be afforded without
charge but only upon reasonable request in writing and during normal business
hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such
a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the
sufficiency of such information.

                  (b)All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under
the control of, the Master Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether
from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation
Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be remitted to the Trustee for deposit in
the Distribution Account.

                  Section 4.09. STANDARD HAZARD INSURANCE AND FLOOD INSURANCE
POLICIES.

obligation of the Servicer under this Agreement to maintain or cause to be

eligibility requirements set forth in Section 3.11 and that no earthquake or
other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or to be
maintained on property acquired in respect of a defaulted loan, other than
pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in
force and as shall require such additional insurance.

PROCEEDS.

under this Agreement to, prepare and present on behalf of the Trustee and the

(including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or enforcement of the
insured's claim) as shall be necessary to realize recovery under such policies.
Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer in respect of such policies, bonds
or contracts shall be promptly remitted to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to
be applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as a
condition precedent to the presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan
to the insurer under any applicable insurance policy need not be so or remitted.

                  Section 4.11. MAINTENANCE OF PRIMARY MORTGAGE INSURANCE
POLICIES.

                  (a)The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit the Servicer
to take (to the extent such action is prohibited by this Agreement), any action
that would result in noncoverage under any primary mortgage insurance policy of
any loss which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer or the Servicer,
would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use its best
reasonable efforts to cause the Servicer to keep in force and effect (to the
extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such
insurance), primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall not,
and shall not permit the Servicer to, cancel or refuse to renew any primary
mortgage insurance policy that is in effect



                                      104

kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement.

                  (b)The Master Servicer agrees to cause the Servicer to
present, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the
insurer under any primary mortgage insurance policies and, in this regard, to
take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any
primary mortgage insurance policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans.

possession and custody of the originals (to the extent available) of any primary
mortgage insurance policies, or certificate of insurance if applicable, and any
certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as may be issued from time to time
as contemplated by this Agreement. Until all amounts distributable in respect of
the Certificates have been distributed in full and the Master Servicer and the
Servicer have otherwise fulfilled their respective obligations under this
Agreement, the Trustee or the Custodian shall also retain possession and custody
of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement. The Master Servicer shall
promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian, upon
the execution or receipt thereof the originals of any primary mortgage insurance
policies, any certificates of renewal, and such other documents or instruments
that constitute Mortgage Loan Documents that come into the possession of the
Master Servicer from time to time.

                  Section 4.13. REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED MORTGAGE LOANS.

                  The Master Servicer shall cause the Servicer to foreclose

of delinquent payments, all in accordance with this Agreement.

                  (a)In the event the Trust Fund acquires ownership of any REO

Certificateholders. The Master Servicer



                                      105
<PAGE>

shall cause the Servicer to sell, any REO Property as expeditiously as possible
and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Further, the Master
Servicer shall cause the Servicer to sell any REO Property prior to three years
after the end of the calendar year of its acquisition by REMIC I unless (i) the
Trustee shall have been supplied by the Servicer with an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to
such three-year period will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited
transactions" of any REMIC hereunder as defined in section 860F of the Code or
cause any REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust Fund may continue to hold
such Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of
Counsel) or (ii) the Servicer shall have applied for, prior to the expiration of
such three-year period, an extension of such three-year period in the manner
contemplated by Section 856(e)(3) of the Code, in which case the three-year
period shall be extended by the applicable extension period. The Master Servicer
shall cause the Servicer to protect and conserve, such REO Property in the
manner and to the extent required by this Agreement in accordance with the REMIC
Provisions and in a manner that does not result in a tax on "net income from
foreclosure property" or cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code.

                  (b)The Master Servicer shall cause the Servicer to deposit all
funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO
Property in the REO Account.

                  Section 4.16. ANNUAL OFFICER'S CERTIFICATE AS TO COMPLIANCE.

                  (a)The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the

ending December 31 of the prior year: (i) such Servicing Officer has reviewed

such Servicing Officer's knowledge, based on such review, such Master Servicer
has performed and fulfilled its duties, responsibilities and obligations under
this Agreement in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has
been a default in the fulfillment of any such duties, responsibilities or
obligations, specifying each such default known to such Servicing Officer and

Servicing Officer to lead such Servicing Officer to believe that the Master
Servicer has failed to perform any of its duties, responsibilities and
obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such year,
or, if there has been a material default in the performance or fulfillment of
any such duties, responsibilities or obligations, specifying each such default
known to such Servicing Officer and the nature and status thereof.

                  (b)Copies of such statements shall be provided to any
Certificateholder upon request, by the Master Servicer or by the Trustee at the
Master Servicer's expense if the Master Servicer failed to provide such copies

such statement or (ii) the Trustee shall be unaware of the Master Servicer's
failure to provide such statement).

REPORT.

                  If the Master Servicer has, during the course of any calendar

pooling and servicing and trust agreements in material respects similar to this
Agreement and to each other and that, on the basis of such examination conducted
substantially in compliance with the audit program for mortgages serviced for
Freddie Mac or the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, such

believes to be immaterial, (ii) such other exceptions as are set forth in such
statement and (iii) such exceptions that the Uniform Single Attestation Program

with such statement or (ii) the Trustee shall be unaware of the Master
Servicer's failure to provide such statement). If such report discloses
exceptions that are material, the Master Servicer shall advise the Trustee
whether such exceptions have been or are susceptible of cure, and will take
prompt action to do so.

                  Section 4.21. PREPAYMENT PENALTY VERIFICATION.

                  On or prior to each Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer
shall provide in an electronic format acceptable to the Master Servicer and it
the data necessary for the Master Servicer to perform its verification duties
set forth in this Section 4.21. The Master Servicer or a third party reasonably
acceptable to the Master Servicer and the Depositor (the "Verification Agent")
will perform such verification duties and will use its best efforts to issue its
findings in a report (the "Verification Report") delivered to the Master
Servicer and the Depositor within ten (10) Business Days following the related
Distribution Date; provided, however, that if the Verification Agent is unable
to issue the Verification Report within ten (10) Business Days following the
Distribution Date, the Verification Agent may issue and deliver to the Master
Servicer and the Depositor the Verification Report upon the completion of its
verification duties. The Master Servicer shall forward the Verification Report
to the Servicer and shall notify the Servicer if the Master Servicer has
determined that the Servicer did not deliver the appropriate Prepayment Charge
to the Securities Administrator in accordance with this Agreement. Such written
notification from the Master Servicer shall include the loan number, prepayment
penalty code and prepayment penalty amount as calculated by the Master Servicer
or the Verification Agent, as applicable, of each Mortgage Loan for which there
is a discrepancy. If the Servicer agrees with the verified amounts, the Servicer
shall adjust the immediately succeeding Servicer Report and the amount remitted
to the Trustee with respect to prepayments accordingly. If the Servicer
disagrees with the determination of the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall,
within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the Verification Report, notify
the Master Servicer of such disagreement and provide the Master Servicer with
detailed information to support its position. The Servicer and the Master
Servicer shall cooperate to resolve any discrepancy on or prior to the
immediately succeeding Servicer Remittance Date, and the Servicer will indicate
the effect of such resolution on the related Servicer Report and shall adjust
the amount remitted with respect to prepayments on such Servicer Remittance Date
accordingly.

                  During such time as the Servicer and the Master Servicer are
resolving discrepancies with respect to the Prepayment Charges, no payments in
respect of any disputed Prepayment Charges will be remitted to the Securities
Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account and the Master Servicer
shall not be obligated to deposit such payments, unless otherwise required
pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof. In connection with such duties, the Master
Servicer shall be able to rely solely on the information provided to it by the
Servicer in accordance with this Section. The Master Servicer shall not be
responsible for verifying the accuracy of any of the information provided to it
by the Servicer.

                  Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate
shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be
responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its
Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to
the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating
brokerage firm (a "brokerage firm" or "indirect participating firm") for which
it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds
to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Master Servicer
shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this
Agreement or applicable law.

                  (e) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive
distributions in respect of the Certificates, and all interests of the
Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set forth in this
Agreement. None of the Holders of any Class of Certificates, the Trustee, the
Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Master Servicer shall in any way
be responsible or liable to the Holders of any other Class of Certificates in
respect of amounts properly previously distributed on the Certificates.

                  (f) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.01, whenever
the Securities Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to
any Class of Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date, the
Securities Administrator shall, no later than three (3) days before the related
Distribution Date, mail to each Holder on such date of such Class of
Certificates a notice to the effect that:

                           (i) the Securities Administrator expects that the
         final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be
         made on such Distribution Date but only upon presentation and surrender
         of such Certificates at the office of the Securities Administrator
         therein specified, and

                           (ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates
         from and after the end of the related Interest Accrual Period.

                  Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of
Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of
such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held in trust by the Securities Administrator and credited to the
account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates
as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 5.01(f) shall not
have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time
specified in such notice, the Securities Administrator shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their
Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities
Administrator shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final notice to the
remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their
Certificates but shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the benefit of
non-tendering Certificateholders. If within one year after the final notice any
such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, any amounts
which were paid by the Certificate Insurer under the Certificate Insurance
Policy and are being held for non-tendering Certificateholders shall be




                                      122
<PAGE>

reimbursed to the Certificate Insurer. The costs and expenses of maintaining the
funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of
the assets remaining in such trust fund. If within one year after the final
notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Securities Administrator shall pay to the Depositor all such amounts, and
all rights of non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall
thereupon cease. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder
on any amount held in trust by the Securities Administrator as a result of such
Certificateholder's failure to surrender its Certificate(s) on the final
Distribution Date for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section
5.01(f). Any such amounts held in trust by the Securities Administrator shall be
held uninvested in an Eligible Account.

                  (g)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in no
event shall the Certificate Principal Balance of a Class A Certificate, a
Mezzanine Certificate or a Class B Certificate be reduced more than once in
respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to such Certificate in
respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 5.04 and (b) distributed to the
Holder of such Certificate in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance
thereof pursuant to this Section 5.01 from Net Monthly Excess Cashflow and (ii)
in no event shall the Uncertificated Balance of a REMIC Regular Interest be
reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to
such REMIC Regular Interest in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section
5.04 and (b) distributed on such REMIC Regular Interest in reduction of the
Uncertificated Balance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.01.

                  In the case of information furnished pursuant to subclauses

special, or other reports or information, whether or not provided for herein, as
shall be reasonable with respect to the Certificateholder, as applicable, or

                  Section 5.03. SERVICER REPORTS; P&I ADVANCES.

                  (a)On or before 1:00 pm New York time on the 18th calendar day
of each month, and if the 18th calendar day is not a Business Day, the
immediately following Business Day, the Servicer shall deliver to the Master
Servicer and the Securities Administrator by telecopy or electronic mail (or by
such other means as the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Securities
Administrator may agree from time to time) a remittance report containing such
information with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the related Distribution Date
as is reasonably available to the Servicer as the Master Servicer or the
Securities Administrator may reasonably require so as to enable the Master
Servicer to master service the Mortgage Loans and oversee the servicing by the
Servicer and the Securities Administrator to fulfill its obligations hereunder
with respect to securities and tax reporting. On the second Business Day
following each Determination Date, but in no event later than the 18th calendar
day of each month (or, if the 18th day is not a Business Day, the succeeding
Business Day), the Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer by electronic
mail (or by such other means as the Servicer and the Master Servicer may agree
from time to time) a prepayment report with respect to the related Remittance
Date. Such prepayment report shall include such information with respect to
Principal Prepayments in full as the Master Servicer may reasonably require.

                  (b)The amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Servicer on
any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 5.03(d), (i) the aggregate
amount of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fees), due during the
related Due Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly Payments were
delinquent as of the close of business on the related Determination Date and
(ii) with respect to each REO Property, which was acquired during or prior to
the related Prepayment Period and as to which an REO Disposition did not occur
during the related Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of
the REO Imputed Interest on such REO Property for the most recently ended
calendar month, over the net income from such REO Property deposited in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.21 for distribution on such
Distribution Date; provided, however, the Servicer shall not be required to make
P&I Advances with respect to Relief Act Interest Shortfalls, or with respect to
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls in excess of its obligations under Section 3.22.
For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Monthly Payment on each Balloon
Mortgage Loan with a delinquent Balloon Payment is equal to the assumed monthly
payment that would have been due on the related Due Date based on the original
principal amortization schedule for such Balloon Mortgage Loan.

                  By 1:00 pm New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, the
Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Securities
Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the
aggregate amount of P&I Advances, if any, to be



                                      127
<PAGE>

made in respect of the Mortgage Loans for the related Distribution Date either
(i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of any
Amounts Held For Future Distribution on deposit therein (in which case it will
cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the Collection Account
that Amounts Held For Future Distribution have been, as permitted by this
Section 5.03, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such P&I Advance) or
(iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total
amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage
Loans. In addition, the Servicer shall have the right to reimburse itself for
any outstanding P&I Advance made from its own funds from Amounts Held for Future
Distribution. Any Amounts Held For Future Distribution used by the Servicer to
make P&I Advances or to reimburse itself for outstanding P&I Advances shall be
appropriately reflected in the Servicer's records and replaced by the Servicer
by deposit in the Collection Account no later than the close of business on the
Servicer Remittance Date immediately following the Due Period or Prepayment
Period for which such amounts relate. The Securities Administrator will notify
the Servicer and the Master Servicer by the close of business on the Business
Day prior to the Distribution Date in the event that the amount remitted by the
Servicer to the Securities Administrator on such date is less than the P&I
Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related Distribution Date.

                  (c)The obligation of the Servicer to make such P&I Advances is
mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to
(d) below, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, shall
continue until a Final Recovery Determination in connection therewith or the
removal thereof from the Trust Fund pursuant to any applicable provision of this
Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Section.

                  (d)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I
Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the
Servicer if such P&I Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a
Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively.
The determination by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance
or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance or
Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, shall be evidenced by a
certification of a Servicing Officer delivered to the Master Servicer.

                  (e)Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Article
VIII, in the event the Servicer fails to make any required P&I Advance, then the
Master Servicer (in its capacity as successor servicer) or any other successor
Servicer shall be required to make such P&I Advance on the Distribution Date on
which the Servicer was required to make such Advance, subject to its
determination of recoverability.

                  Section 5.04. ALLOCATION OF REALIZED LOSSES.

                  (a)Prior to the Determination Date, the Servicer shall
determine as to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property and include in the monthly
remittance report provided to the Master Servicer and the Securities
Administrator (substantially in the form of Schedule 4 hereto) such information
as is reasonably available to the Servicer as the Master Servicer or the
Securities Administrator may reasonably require so as to enable the Master
Servicer to



                                      128
<PAGE>

master service the Mortgage Loans and oversee the servicing by the Servicer and
the Securities Administrator to fulfill its obligations hereunder with respect
to securities and tax reporting, which shall include, but not be limited to: (i)
the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any
Final Recovery Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period; and
(ii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and
allocable to principal. Prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
also determine as to each Mortgage Loan: (i) the total amount of Realized
Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Deficient Valuations made during
the related Prepayment Period; and (ii) the total amount of Realized Losses, if
any, incurred in connection with Debt Service Reductions in respect of Monthly
Payments due during the related Due Period.

                  (b)All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any
REMIC I Regular Interest pursuant to Section 5.04(c) on the Mortgage Loans shall
be allocated by the Securities Administrator on each Distribution Date as
follows: first, to Net Monthly Excess Cashflow; second, to the Class CE
Certificates; third, to the Class B-3 Certificates until the Certificate
Principal Balance has been reduced to zero, fourth to the Class B-2 Certificates
until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, fifth
to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
has been reduced to zero, sixth, to the Class M-6 Certificates, until the
Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the
Class M-5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been
reduced to zero; eighth, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; ninth, to the Class M-3
Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced
to zero; tenth, to the Class M-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal
Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and eleventh, to the Class M-1
Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced
to zero. All Realized Losses to be allocated to the Certificate Principal
Balances of all Classes on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the
actual distributions to be made on such date as provided above. All references
above to the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates shall be
to the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class immediately prior to the
relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses, in
each case to be allocated to such Class of Certificates, on such Distribution
Date.

                  Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Mezzanine Certificate
or Class B Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be made by reducing the
Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated; any allocation
of Realized Losses to a Class CE Certificates shall be made by reducing the
amount otherwise payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section
5.01(a)(7)(xxvi). No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the
Certificate Principal Balances of the Class A Certificates or Class P
Certificates.

                  As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss on a "pro
rata basis" among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an
allocation on a pro rata basis, among the various Classes so specified, to each
such Class of Certificates on the basis of their then outstanding Certificate
Principal Balances prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on such
Distribution Date. All Realized Losses and all other losses allocated to a Class
of Certificates hereunder will be allocated among the, Certificates of such
Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby.



                                      129
<PAGE>

                  In addition, in the event that the Servicer receives any
Subsequent Recoveries, the Servicer shall deposit such funds into the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.08. If, after taking into account such Subsequent
Recoveries, the amount of a Realized Loss is reduced, the amount of such
Subsequent Recoveries will be applied to increase the Certificate Principal
Balance of the Class of Subordinate Certificates with the highest payment
priority to which Realized Losses have been allocated, but not by more than the
amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Subordinate
Certificates pursuant to this Section 5.04 and not previously reimbursed to such
Class of Subordinate Certificates with Net Monthly Excess Cashflow pursuant to
Section 5.01(a)(7). The amount of any remaining Subsequent Recoveries will be
applied to sequentially increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the
Subordinate Certificates, beginning with the Class of Subordinate Certificates
with the next highest payment priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses
previously allocated to such Class of Subordinate Certificates pursuant to this
Section 5.04 and not previously reimbursed to such Class of Subordinate
Certificates with Net Monthly Excess Cashflow pursuant to clause THIRD of
Section 5.01(a)(7). Holders of such Certificates will not be entitled to any
payment in respect of current interest on the amount of such increases for any
Interest Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date on which such increase
occurs. Any such increases shall be applied to the Certificate Principal Balance
of each Subordinate Certificate of such Class in accordance with its respective
Percentage Interest.

                  (c) (i) The REMIC I Marker Percentage of all Realized Losses
on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee, based solely on the
instructions of the Securities Administrator, on each Distribution Date to the
following REMIC I Regular Interests in the specified percentages, as follows:
first, to Uncertificated Interest payable to the REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA
and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC

the Uncertificated Balances of the REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA and REMIC I
Regular Interest I-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC I Principal
Loss Allocation Amount, 98.00% and 2.00%, respectively; third, to the
Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular
Interest I-LTB3 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98.00%, 1.00% and 1.00%,

                                      130
<PAGE>

REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTB3 has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the
Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular
Interest I-LTB2 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98.00%, 1.00%, and 1.00%,
respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest
I-LTB2 has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC
I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTB1 and REMIC I Regular
Interest I-LTZZ, 98.00%, 1.00% and 1.00%, respectively, until the Uncertificated
Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTB1 has been reduced to zero; sixth, to
the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular
Interest I-LTM6 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98.00%, 1.00% and 1.00%,
respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest
I-LTM6 has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of
REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM5 and REMIC I
Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98.00%, 1.00% and 1.00%, respectively, until the
Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM5 has been reduced to
zero; eighth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA,
REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM4 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98.00%,
1.00% and 1.00%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I
Regular Interest I-LTM4 has been reduced to zero; ninth, to the Uncertificated
Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM3 and
REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98.00%, 1.00% and 1.00%, respectively, until
the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM3 has been reduced
to zero; tenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest
I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM2 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ,
98.00%, 1.00% and 1.00%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC

respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest
I-LTM1 has been reduced to zero.

                           (ii) The REMIC I Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of all
         Realized Losses shall be applied after all distributions have been made
         on each Distribution Date first, so as to keep the Uncertificated
         Balance of each REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the designation
         "B" equal to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
         Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group; second, to each REMIC I
         Regular Interest ending with the designation "A," so that the
         Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is equal
         to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of
         the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group over (y) the current
         Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificate in the related
         Loan Group (except that if any such excess is a larger number than in
         the preceding distribution period, the least amount of Realized Losses
         shall be applied to such REMIC I Regular Interests such that the REMIC
         I Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained); and third, any remaining
         Realized Losses shall be allocated to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTXX.

                  Section 5.05. COMPLIANCE WITH WITHHOLDING REQUIREMENTS.

                  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall comply with all federal
withholding requirements respecting payments to Certificateholders of interest
or original issue discount that the Trustee reasonably believes are applicable
under the Code. The consent of Certificateholders shall not be required for such
withholding. In the event the Securities Administrator does withhold any amount
from interest or original issue discount payments or advances thereof to any
Certificateholder pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Securities
Administrator shall indicate the amount withheld to such Certificateholders.

                  Section 5.06. REPORTS FILED WITH SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE

with the Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System
("EDGAR"), a Form 8-K with a copy of the statement to be furnished to the
Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Prior to
January 30, 2005, the Securities Administrator shall, in accordance with
industry standards, file a Form 15 Suspension Notice with respect to the Trust
Fund, if applicable. Prior to (i) March 20, 2005 and (ii) unless and until a
Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been filed, prior to March 20th of



                                      131

each year thereafter, the Master Servicer shall provide the Securities
Administrator with a Master Servicer Certification, together with a copy of the
annual independent accountant's servicing report and annual statement of
compliance of the Servicer to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, and, if
applicable, the annual independent accountant's servicing report and annual
statement of compliance to be delivered by the Master Servicer pursuant to
Sections 4.16 and 4.17. Prior to (i) March 31, 2005 and (ii) unless and until a
Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been filed, March 31 of each year
thereafter, the Securities Administrator shall file a Form 10-K, in substance
conforming to industry standards, with respect to the Trust. Such Form 10-K
shall include the Master Servicer Certification and other documentation provided
by the Master Servicer pursuant to the second preceding sentence. The Depositor
hereby grants to the Securities Administrator a limited power of attorney to
execute and file each such document on behalf of the Depositor. Such power of
attorney shall continue until either the earlier of (i) receipt by the
Securities Administrator from the Depositor of written termination of such power
of attorney and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund. The Depositor agrees to
promptly furnish to the Securities Administrator, 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 Securities
Administrator reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary
reports with the Commission. The Securities Administrator shall have no
responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section
5.06; provided, however, the Securities Administrator 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"). Fees and expenses incurred by the Securities
Administrator in connection with this Section 5.06 shall not be reimbursable
from the Trust Fund.

                  Section 5.07. THE CERTIFICATE INSURANCE POLICY.

                  (a)The Trustee hereby appoints the Securities Administrator as
its agent in connection with the receipt and distribution of all amounts
required to be paid by the Certificate Insurer under the Certificate Insurance
Policy and the providing of any notices required to be provided thereunder. The
Securities Administrator shall establish a separate non-interest bearing trust
account which shall be an Eligible Account for the benefit of Holders of the
Class A-1B Certificates and the Certificate Insurer referred to herein as the
"Policy Payment Account" over which the Securities Administrator shall have
exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The Securities Administrator
shall deposit upon receipt any amount paid under the Certificate Insurance
Policy in the Policy Payment Account and distribute such amount only for
purposes of payment to the Class A-1B Certificates of the Policy Payment for
which a claim was made and such amount may not be applied to satisfy any costs,
expenses or liabilities of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund or
to pay any other Class of Certificates. Amounts paid under the Certificate
Insurance Policy, to the extent needed to pay any Class A-1B Certificate
Deficiency Amount, shall be transferred to the Distribution Account on the
related Distribution Date, and the portion thereof representing the Class A-1B
Certificate Deficiency Amount shall be disbursed by the Securities Administrator
to the Class A-1B Certificateholders, in each case as if it were a distribution
to the Holders of such Certificates pursuant to Section 5.01. It shall not be
necessary for such payments to be made by checks or wire transfers separate from
the checks or wire transfers used to pay other distributions to the Class A-1B
Certificateholders, as applicable, with other funds available to make such
payment. However, the amount of any



                                      132
<PAGE>

payment of principal or of interest on the Class A-1B Certificates to be paid
from funds transferred from the Policy Payment Account shall be noted as
provided in paragraph (d) below and in the statement to be furnished to Holders
of such Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 5.02. Funds held in the Policy
Payment Account shall not be invested. Any funds remaining in the Policy Payment
Account on the first Business Day following a Distribution Date shall be
returned to the Certificate Insurer pursuant to the written instructions of the
Certificate Insurer by the end of such Business Day.

                  (b)If the Securities Administrator has determined that a Class
A-1B Certificate Deficiency Amount is required to be paid under the Certificate
Insurance Policy with respect to such Distribution Date, it shall deliver a
Notice of Claim (in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Certificate Insurance
Policy) to the Certificate Insurer no later than noon, New York, New York time
on the second Business Day preceding such Distribution Date and shall provide a
copy thereof to the Master Servicer at or prior to the time such Notice of Claim
is received by the Certificate Insurer. The Notice of Claim shall constitute a
claim therefor pursuant to the Certificate Insurance Policy.

                  (c)If the Securities Administrator receives a certified copy
of a final order of the appropriate court exercising jurisdiction in an
Insolvency Proceeding with respect to which the appeal period as expired without
an appeal having been filed (an "Order") that any prior distribution made on the
Insured Certificates constitutes an Avoided Payment and must be returned by the
Certificate Owner, the Securities Administrator shall so notify the Certificate
Insurer, shall comply with the provisions of the Certificate Insurance Policy to
obtain payment by the Certificate Insurer of such Avoided Payment and shall, at
the time it provides notice to the Certificate Insurer, notify each holder of
the affected Insured Certificates by mail that (i) subject to the terms of the
Certificate Insurance Policy, the Certificate Insurer will disburse the Avoided
Payment directly to the receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee
in bankruptcy named in the Order on the Business Day following such
Certificateholder's making timely delivery to the Securities Administrator of
(a) a certified copy of the Order of such Certificateholder that such Order has
been entered and is not subject to any stay, (b) an assignment duly executed and
delivered by such Certificate Owner, in such form as is reasonably required by
the Certificate Insurer and provided to such Certificateholder by the
Certificate Insurer, irrevocably assigning to the Certificate Insurer all rights
and claims of such Certificate Owner relating to or arising under the affected
Insured Certificates against the debtor that made a payment of such Avoided
Payment, or otherwise with respect to such payment and (c) a payment notice in
the form required by the Certificate Insurance Policy, appropriately completed
and executed by the Securities Administrator, provided that if such documents
are received after 10:00 a.m., New York time, on such Business Day, they will be
deemed to be received on the following Business Day. A copy of the Certificate
Insurance Policy shall be made available to each affected Certificateholder
through the Trustee, and the Securities Administrator shall furnish to the
Certificate Insurer or its fiscal agent, if any, a copy of its records
evidencing the payments that have been made by the Securities Administrator and
subsequently recovered from Certificateholders and the dates on which such
payments were made.

                  (d)The Securities Administrator shall keep a complete and
accurate record of the amount of interest and principal paid in respect of any
Class A-1B Certificates from



                                      133
<PAGE>

moneys received under the Certificate Insurance Policy. The Certificate Insurer
shall have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times during normal
business hours upon two Business Day's prior notice to the Securities
Administrator.

                  (e)The Holders of the Insured Certificates are not entitled to
institute proceedings directly against the Certificate Insurer. Each Holder of
the Insured Certificates, by its purchase of Insured Certificates hereby agrees
that the Certificate Insurer may at any time during the continuation of any
proceeding relating to an Avoided Payment, direct all matters relating to such
Avoided Payment on their behalf, including, without limitation, the direction of
any appeal of any order relating to such preference claim and the posting of any
surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal.

                  (f)Any payments to the Certificate Insurer shall be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to the following Federal Reserve
Account (unless and until the Certificate Insurer notifies the Securities
Administrator of a change in such account information in writing):

                           Fleet Bank, N.A.

                           Reference: Policy Number CA01082A

                  (g)The Securities Administrator shall, upon retirement of the
Class A-1B Certificates, furnish to the Certificate Insurer a notice of such
retirement, and, after retirement of the Class A-1B Certificates and the
expiration of the term of the Certificate Insurance Policy, surrender the
Certificate Insurance Policy to the Certificate Insurer for cancellation.

                  (h)The Trustee shall hold the Certificate Insurance Policy in
trust as agent for the Holders of the Class A-1B Certificates for the purpose of
making claims thereon and distributing the proceeds thereof. Neither the
Certificate Insurance Policy nor the amounts paid on the Certificate Insurance
Policy shall constitute part of the Trust Fund created by this Agreement. Each
Holder of Class A-1B Certificates, by accepting its Class A-1B Certificates,
appoints the Securities Administrator as attorney-in-fact for the purpose of
making claims on the Certificate Insurance Policy.

                  Section 5.08. EFFECT OF PAYMENTS BY THE CERTIFICATE INSURER;
SUBROGATION.

                  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment
with respect to principal of or interest on the Class A-1B Certificates which is
made with moneys received pursuant to the terms of the Certificate Insurance
Policy shall not be considered payment of the Class A-1B Certificates from the
Trust Fund. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee acknowledge, and
each Holder by its acceptance of a Class A-1B Certificate agrees, that without
the need for any further action on the part of the Certificate Insurer, the
Depositor, the Master




                                      134
<PAGE>

Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar (a) to the extent the
Certificate Insurer makes payments, directly or indirectly, on account of
principal of or interest on the Class A-1B Certificates to the Holders of such
Class of Certificates, the Certificate Insurer shall be fully subrogated to, and
each such Certificateholder, the Master Servicer and the Trustee hereby delegate
and assign to the Certificate Insurer, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
the rights of such Holders to receive such principal and interest (in the manner
and order of priority in relation to other Classes of Certificates as is set
forth in this Agreement) from the Trust Fund, and (b) the Certificate Insurer
shall be paid such amounts from the sources and in the manner provided herein
for the payment of such amounts and as provided in this Agreement until full
reimbursement of all Insured Payments (together with interest thereon at the
Pass-Through Rate from the date paid by the Certificate Insurer until the date
of reimbursement thereof). The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall cooperate
in all respects with any reasonable request by the Certificate Insurer for
action to preserve or enforce the Certificate Insurer's rights or interests
under this Agreement without limiting the rights or affecting the interests of
the Holders of the Insured Certificates as otherwise set forth herein.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                THE CERTIFICATES

                  Section 6.01. THE CERTIFICATES.

                  (a)The Certificates in the aggregate will represent the entire
beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other assets
included in REMIC I.

                  The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed
hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-6. The Certificates of each Class will be
issuable in registered form only, in denominations of authorized Percentage
Interests as described in the definition thereof. Each Certificate will share
ratably in all rights of the related Class.

                  Upon original issue, the Certificates shall be executed and
authenticated by the Securities Administrator and delivered by the Trustee to
and upon the written order of the Depositor. The Certificates shall be executed
by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trust by the Securities
Administrator by an authorized signatory. Certificates bearing the manual or
facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of
the Securities Administrator shall bind the Trust, notwithstanding that such
individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at
the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided
herein executed by the Securities Administrator by manual signature, and such
certificate of authentication shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

                  (b)The Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates
shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates held by the Book-Entry
Custodian or, if appointed to hold such Certificates as provided below, the
Depository and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and,
except as provided below, registration of such Certificates may not be
transferred by the Securities Administrator except to another Depository that
agrees to hold such Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with
Ownership Interests therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective
Ownership Interests in and to such Certificates through the book-entry
facilities of the Depository and, except as provided below, shall not be
entitled to definitive, fully registered Certificates ("Definitive
Certificates") in respect of such Ownership Interests. All transfers by
Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry
Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the
Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner.
Each Depository Participant shall only transfer the Ownership Interests in the
Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage
firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository's normal
procedures. The Securities Administrator is hereby initially appointed as the
Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and
in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository authorizing it
to act as such. The Book-Entry Custodian may, and, if it is no longer qualified
to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument




                                      136
<PAGE>

delivered to the Depositor, the Servicer and, if the Trustee is not the
Book-Entry Custodian, the Trustee, any other transfer agent (including the
Depository or any successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry Custodian under
such conditions as the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or
any successor Depository may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry
Custodian shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by
reason of any such appointment of other than the Depository. If the Securities
Administrator resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the
successor Securities Administrator or, if it so elects, the Depository shall
immediately succeed to its predecessor's duties as Book-Entry Custodian. The
Depositor shall have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies of, any
Certificates held as Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian.

                  (c)The Class B Certificates initially offered and sold in
offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued in the form of
a temporary global certificate in definitive, fully registered form (each, a
"Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate"), which shall be deposited with the
Securities Administrator or an agent of the Securities Administrator as
custodian for the Depository and registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee
of the Depository for the account of designated agents holding on behalf of
Euroclear or Clearstream. Beneficial interests in each Regulation S Temporary
Global Certificate may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream; provided,
however, that such interests may be exchanged for interests in a Definitive
Certificate in accordance with the requirements described in Section 6.02. After
the expiration of the Release Date, a beneficial interest in a Regulation S
Temporary Global Certificate may be exchanged for a beneficial interest in the
related permanent global certificate of the same Class (each, a "Regulation S
Permanent Global Certificate"), in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 6.02. Each Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate shall be deposited
with the Securities Administrator or an agent of the Securities Administrator as
custodian for the Depository and registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee
of the Depository.

                  The Class B Certificates offered and sold to Qualified
Institutional Buyers ("QIBs") in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act
("Rule 144A") or institutional investors that are accredited investors within
the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the
Securities Act ("Institutional Accredited Investors") will be issued in the form
of Definitive Certificates.

                  (d)The Trustee, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator,
the Master Servicer and the Depositor may for all purposes (including the making
of payments due on the Book-Entry Certificates and Global Certificates) deal
with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners
with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates and Global Certificates for the
purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of
Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates and Global
Certificates shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between
such Certificate Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms
representing such Certificate Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and
votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates and Global
Certificates with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners. The
Securities Administrator may establish a reasonable record date in connection




                                      137
<PAGE>

with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders and shall
give notice to the Depository of such record date.

                  If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Securities Administrator
in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly
discharge its responsibilities as Depository, and (B) the Depositor is unable to
locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Depositor at its option advises the
Securities Administrator in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Depository or (iii) after the occurrence of a Servicer Event
of Default, Certificate Owners representing in the aggregate not less than 51%
of the Ownership Interests of the Book-Entry Certificates advise the Securities
Administrator through the Depository, in writing, that the continuation of a
book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of
the Certificate Owners, the Securities Administrator shall notify all
Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event
and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners
requesting the same. With respect to a Global Certificate, the related
Certificate Owner (other than a Holder of a Regulation S Temporary Global
Certificate) may request that its interest in a Global Certificate be exchanged
for a Definitive Certificate. Upon surrender to the Securities Administrator of
the Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian or the Depository, as
applicable, or the Global Certificates by the Depository accompanied by
registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the
Securities Administrator shall cause the Definitive Certificates to be issued.
Such Definitive Certificates will be issued in minimum denominations of $10,000
except that any beneficial ownership that was represented by a Book-Entry
Certificate, or a Global Certificate, as applicable in an amount less than
$10,000 immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive Certificate shall be
issued in a minimum denomination equal to the amount represented by such
Book-Entry Certificate or a Global Certificate, as applicable. None of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or
the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of such instructions
and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such
instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all references herein
to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed
to be imposed upon and performed by the Securities Administrator, to the extent
applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates, and the Securities
Administrator shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as
Certificateholders hereunder.

                  Section 6.02. REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF
CERTIFICATES.

                  (a)The Securities Administrator shall cause to be kept at one
of the offices or agencies to be appointed by the Securities Administrator in
accordance with the provisions of Section 9.11, a Certificate Register for the
Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, the Securities Administrator shall provide for the registration of
Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.

                  (b)No transfer of any Class B Certificate, Class CE
Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate shall be made unless
that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and effective registration
or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a
transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the
event that such a transfer of a Class B Certificate, Class CE Certificate, Class
P Certificate or Residual



                                      138
<PAGE>

Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification (other than in
connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor),
the Securities Administrator shall require receipt of: (i) if such transfer is
purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written
certifications from the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and
from such Certificateholder's prospective transferee, substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B-1; (ii) if such transfer is purportedly being made
in reliance upon Rule 501(a) under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the
Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and from such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee, substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B-2; (iii) if such transfer is purportedly being made in
reliance on Regulation S, a written certification from the prospective
transferee, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 and (iv) in
all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Securities
Administrator that such transfer may be made without such registration or
qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust
Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator or the Servicer), together with copies of the written
certification(s) of the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and/or
such Certificateholder's prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of
Counsel is based, if any. Neither of the Depositor nor the Securities
Administrator is obligated to register or qualify any such Certificates under
the 1933 Act or any other securities laws or to take any action not otherwise
required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates
without registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder desiring to effect
the transfer of any such Certificate shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify
the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator
and the Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  A holder of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Temporary
Global Certificate must provide Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be,
with a certificate in the form of Annex A to Exhibit B-1 hereto certifying that
the beneficial owner of the interest in such Global Certificate is not a U.S.
Person (as defined in Regulation S), and Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case
may be, must provide to the Trustee and Securities Administrator a certificate
in the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto prior to (i) the payment of interest or
principal with respect to such holder's beneficial interest in the Regulation S
Temporary Global Certificate and (ii) any exchange of such beneficial interest
for a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate.

                  (c)No transfer of a Class B Certificate, Class CE Certificate,
Class P Certificate or a Residual Certificate or any interest therein shall be
made to any Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person
acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person
acquiring such Certificates with "Plan Assets" of a Plan within the meaning of
the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C.F.R. ss. 2510.3-101
("Plan Assets") unless (i) in the case of the Class CE, Class P or Residual
Certificates, the Securities Administrator is provided with an Opinion of
Counsel on which the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee and the Servicer may rely, which establishes to the
satisfaction of the Securities Administrator that the purchase of such
Certificates is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result
in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will
not subject the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the
Securities Administrator or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability
(including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of


                                      139
<PAGE>

the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of
Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the
Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trust Fund or (ii) in the
case of the Class B Certificates, the Transferee represents and warrants, or is
deemed to represent and warrant, that (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the
source of funds used to acquire or hold the certificate or interest therein is
an "insurance company general account," as such term is defined in Prohibited
Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60, and (3) the conditions in Sections I
and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied. An Opinion of Counsel will not be
required in connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the
Depositor to an affiliate of the Depositor (in which case, the Depositor or any
affiliate thereof shall have deemed to have represented that such affiliate is
not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the Securities Administrator
shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the
request of the Securities Administrator, shall be a written representation) from
the Depositor of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.

                  Each Transferee of a Mezzanine Certificate will be deemed to
have represented by virtue of its purchase or holding of such Certificate (or
interest therein) that either (a) such Transferee is not a Plan or purchasing
such Certificate with Plan Assets, (b) it has acquired and is holding such
Certificate in reliance on Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 94-84 or FAN
97-03E, as amended by PTE 97-34, 62 Fed. Reg. 39021 (July 21, 1997), PTE
2000-58, 65 Fed. Reg. 67765 (November 13, 2000) and PTE 2002-41, 67 Fed. Reg.
54487 (August 22, 2002) (the "Exemption"), and that it understands that there
are certain conditions to the availability of the Exemption including that such
Certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than "BBB-" (or
its equivalent) by a Rating Agency or (c) the following conditions are
satisfied: (i) such Transferee is an insurance company, (ii) the source of funds
used to purchase or hold such Certificate (or interest therein) is an "insurance
company general account" (as defined in PTCE 95-60, and (iii) the conditions set
forth in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.

                  If any Certificate or any interest therein is acquired or held
in violation of the conditions described in this Section 6.02(c), the next
preceding permitted beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of
that Certificate, retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported
beneficial owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of
any certificate or interest therein was effected in violation of the conditions
described in this Section 6.02(c) shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator and the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities,
claims, costs or expenses incurred by those parties as a result of that
acquisition or holding.

                  (d)(i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or
acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the
following provisions and to have irrevocably authorized the Securities
Administrator or its designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver payments to
a Person other than such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale
under clause (iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of Transfer and to do
all other things necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each
Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly
subject to the following provisions:



                                      140

                                    (A)Each Person holding or acquiring any
                  Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a
                  Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Securities
                  Administrator of any change or impending change in its status
                  as a Permitted Transferee.

                                    (B) In connection with any proposed Transfer
                  of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the
                  Trustee shall require delivery to it, and shall not register
                  the Transfer of any Residual Certificate until its receipt of,
                  an affidavit and agreement (a "Transfer Affidavit and
                  Agreement," in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-3) from
                  the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to
                  the Securities Administrator, representing and warranting,
                  among other things, that such Transferee is a Permitted
                  Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in
                  the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed
                  Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is
                  not a Permitted Transferee, that for so long as it retains its
                  Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, it will endeavor
                  to remain a Permitted Transferee, and that it has reviewed the
                  provisions of this Section 6.02(d) and agrees to be bound by
                  them.

                                    (C)Notwithstanding the delivery of a
                  Transfer Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed Transferee
                  under clause (B) above, if an authorized officer of the
                  Securities Administrator who is assigned to this transaction
                  has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a
                  Permitted Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in
                  a Residual Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be
                  effected.

                                    (D)Each Person holding or acquiring any
                  Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (x)
                  to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any other
                  Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership
                  Interest in a Residual Certificate and (Y) not to transfer its
                  Ownership Interest unless it provides a Transferor Affidavit
                  (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-2) to the Securities
                  Administrator stating that, among other things, it has no
                  actual knowledge that such other Person is not a Permitted
                  Transferee.

                                    (E)Each Person holding or acquiring an
                  Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an
                  Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the
                  Securities Administrator written notice that it is a
                  "pass-through interest holder" within the meaning of temporary
                  Treasury regulation Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately
                  upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual
                  Certificate, if it is, or is holding an Ownership Interest in
                  a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a "pass-through interest
                  holder."

                           (ii) The Securities Administrator will register the
         Transfer of any Residual Certificate only if it shall have received the
         Transfer Affidavit and Agreement and all of such other documents as
         shall have been reasonably required by the Securities Administrator as
         a condition to such registration. In addition, no Transfer of a
         Residual Certificate shall be made unless the Securities Administrator
         shall have received a



                                      141
<PAGE>

         representation letter from the Transferee of such Certificate to the
         effect that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee.

                           (iii) (A) If any purported Transferee shall become a
         Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this
         Section 6.02(d), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be
         restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as holder
         thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of
         such Residual Certificate. The Securities Administrator shall be under
         no liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a
         Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section
         6.02(d) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the
         holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such
         holder under the provisions of this Agreement.

                                    (B) If any purported Transferee shall become
                  a holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the
                  restrictions in this Section 6.02(d) and to the extent that
                  the retroactive restoration of the rights of the holder of
                  such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A)
                  above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the
                  Securities Administrator shall have the right, without notice
                  to the holder or any prior holder of such Residual
                  Certificate, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser
                  selected by the Securities Administrator on such terms as the
                  Securities Administrator may choose. Such purported Transferee
                  shall promptly endorse and deliver each Residual Certificate
                  in accordance with the instructions of the Securities
                  Administrator. Such purchaser may be the Securities
                  Administrator itself or any Affiliate of the Securities
                  Administrator. The proceeds of such sale, net of the
                  commissions (which may include commissions payable to the
                  Securities Administrator or its Affiliates), expenses and
                  taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Securities
                  Administrator to such purported Transferee. The terms and
                  conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be
                  determined in the sole discretion of the Securities
                  Administrator, and the Securities Administrator shall not be
                  liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a
                  Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such
                  discretion.

                           (iv) The Securities Administrator shall make
         available to the Internal Revenue Service and those Persons specified
         by the REMIC Provisions all information necessary to compute any tax
         imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
         Residual Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization,
         including the information described in Treasury regulations sections
         1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the "excess
         inclusions" of such Residual Certificate and (B) as a result of any
         regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common
         trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in
         Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Residual
         Certificate having as among its record holders at any time any Person
         which is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for
         providing such information may be charged or collected by the
         Securities Administrator.

                           (v)The provisions of this Section 6.02(d) set forth
         prior to this subsection (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated,
         provided that there shall have been delivered to the Securities
         Administrator at the expense of the party seeking to modify, add to or
         eliminate any such provision the following:

                                    (A)written notification from each Rating
                  Agency to the effect that the modification, addition to or
                  elimination of such provisions will not cause such Rating
                  Agency to downgrade its then-current ratings of any Class of
                  Certificates (and with respect to the Insured Certificates,
                  without regard to the Certificate Insurance Policy); and

                                    (B)an Opinion of Counsel, in form and
                  substance satisfactory to the Securities Administrator, to the
                  effect that such modification of, addition to or elimination
                  of such provisions will not cause any Trust REMIC to cease to
                  qualify as a REMIC and will not cause any Trust REMIC, as the
                  case may be, to be subject to an entity-level tax caused by
                  the Transfer of any Residual Certificate to a Person that is
                  not a Permitted Transferee or a Person other than the
                  prospective transferee to be subject to a REMIC-tax caused by
                  the Transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person that is not
                  a Permitted Transferee.

                  (e)Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the
Securities Administrator maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 9.11,
the Securities Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the
name of the designated Transferee or Transferees, one or more new Certificates
of the same Class of a like aggregate Percentage Interest.

                  (f)At the option of the Holder thereof, any Certificate may be
exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class with authorized denominations
and a like aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of such Certificate to
be exchanged at any office or agency of the Securities Administrator maintained
for such purpose pursuant to Section 9.11. Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Securities Administrator shall execute,
authenticate and deliver, the Certificates which the Certificateholder making
the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered
for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Securities Administrator)
be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
the form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the
Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

                  (g)No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made
for any transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge
that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

                  (h)All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange
shall be canceled and destroyed by the Securities Administrator in accordance
with its customary procedures.

                  Section 6.03. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN
CERTIFICATES.

                  If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the
Securities Administrator, or the Securities Administrator receives evidence to
its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and of the
ownership thereof, and (ii) there is delivered to Securities Administrator such
security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the
absence of actual knowledge by the Securities Administrator that such
Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Securities
Administrator, shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in
lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new
Certificate of the same Class and of like denomination and Percentage Interest.
Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Securities
Administrator may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Securities Administrator)
connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section
shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the
applicable REMIC created hereunder, as if originally issued, whether or not the
lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

                  Section 6.04. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

                  The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer,
the Securities Administrator and any agent of any of them may treat the Person
in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for
the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all
other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee,
the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or any agent of any of them
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                  Section 6.05. CERTAIN AVAILABLE INFORMATION.

                  On or prior to the date of the first sale of any Class CE
Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate to an Independent third
party, the Depositor shall provide to the Securities Administrator ten copies of
any private placement memorandum or other disclosure document used by the
Depositor in connection with the offer and sale of such Certificate. In
addition, if any such private placement memorandum or disclosure document is
revised, amended or supplemented at any time following the delivery thereof to
the Securities Administrator, the Depositor promptly shall inform the Securities
Administrator of such event and shall deliver to the Securities Administrator
ten copies of the private placement memorandum or disclosure document, as
revised, amended or supplemented. The Securities Administrator shall maintain at
its office as set forth in Section 12.05 hereof and shall make available free of
charge during normal business hours for review by any Holder of a Certificate or
any Person identified to the Securities Administrator as a prospective
transferee of a Certificate, originals or copies of the following items: (i) in
the case of a Holder or prospective transferee of a Class CE Certificate, Class
P Certificate or Residual Certificate, the related private placement memorandum
or other disclosure document relating to such Class of Certificates, in the form
most recently provided to the Securities Administrator; and (ii) in all cases,

statements and written communications delivered to the Certificateholders of the
relevant Class pursuant to this Agreement since the Closing Date and (C) any
copies of all Officers' Certificates of the Servicer since the Closing Date

P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Copies and mailing of any and
all of the foregoing items will be available from the Securities Administrator

                  Section 6.06. RIGHTS OF THE CERTIFICATE INSURER TO EXERCISE
RIGHTS OF CLASS A-1B CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.

                  (a)By accepting its Certificate, each Class A-1B
Certificateholder agrees that, unless a Certificate Insurer Default exists, the
Certificate Insurer shall be deemed to be the Class A-1B Certificateholders for
all purposes (other than with respect to the receipt of payment on such Classes
of Certificates except payments with respect to which the Certificate Insurer
has subrogation rights as set forth herein) and shall have the right to exercise
all rights of such Certificateholders under this Agreement and under the Class
A-1B Certificates without any further consent of such Certificateholders.

                  (b)All notices, statement reports, certificates or opinions
required by this Agreement to be sent to any Class A-1B Certificateholder shall
also be sent to the Certificate Insurer.

                  (c)(x) On the Distribution Date immediately after the
expiration of the Term of the Certificate Insurance Policy (as such term is
defined in the Certificate Insurance Policy) or (y) during the occurrence of a
Certificate Insurer Default (until such time as it has been cured), the rights,
consents and notifications granted to the Certificate Insurer in this Agreement
shall be extinguished.

                  Section 6.07. CERTIFICATE INSURER DEFAULT.

                  Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Agreement or in the
Certificates to the contrary, if (i) a Certificate Insurer Default exists and is
continuing or (ii) if and to the extent the Certificate Insurer has delivered
its written renunciation of all of its rights under this Agreement, all
provisions of this Agreement which (a) permit the Certificate Insurer to
exercise rights of the Class A-1B Certificateholders, (b) restrict the ability
of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Trustee to act without the
consent or approval of the Certificate Insurer, (c) provide that a particular
act or thing must be acceptable to the Certificate Insurer, (d) permit the
Certificate Insurer to direct (or otherwise to require) the actions of the
Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Certificateholders, (e) provide that any
action or omission taken with the consent, approval or authorization of the
Certificate Insurer shall be authorized hereunder or shall not subject the party
taking or omitting to take such action to any liability hereunder or (f) have a
similar effect, shall be of no further force and effect and the Trustee shall
administer the Trust Fund and perform its obligations hereunder solely for the
benefit of the Holders of the Certificates. Nothing in the foregoing sentence,
nor any action taken pursuant thereto or in compliance therewith, shall be
deemed (x) to have released the Certificate Insurer from any



                                      145
<PAGE>

obligation or liability it may have to any party or to the Class A-1B
Certificateholders hereunder, under any other agreement, instrument or document
(including, without limitation, the Certificate Insurance Policy) or under
applicable law or (y) to have terminated (1) the Certificate Insurer's right to
receive Reimbursement Amounts under this Agreement or its subrogation to the
rights of the Holders of the Class A-1B Certificates under this Agreement or the
Certificate Insurance Policy, (2) the Certificate Insurer's right to receive
reports and distributions as described in this Agreement or (3) the requirement
that the Certificate Insurer approve any amendments to this Agreement that would
adversely affect the aforementioned rights. At such time as the Class A-1B
Certificates are no longer outstanding hereunder, and no amounts owed to the
Certificate Insurer hereunder with respect to the Class A-1B remain unpaid, the
Certificate Insurer's rights hereunder shall terminate.

               THE DEPOSITOR, THE SERVICER AND THE MASTER SERVICER

                  Section 7.01. LIABILITY OF THE DEPOSITOR, THE SERVICER AND THE
MASTER SERVICER.

                  The Depositor, the Servicer and the Master Servicer each shall
be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations
specifically imposed by this Agreement upon them in their respective capacities
as Depositor, Servicer and Master Servicer and undertaken hereunder by the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Master Servicer herein.

                  Section 7.02. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF THE DEPOSITOR, THE
SERVICER OR THE MASTER SERVICER.

                  Subject to the following paragraph, the Depositor will keep in
full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. Subject to the following paragraph,
the Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a
corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. Subject to
the following paragraph, the Master Servicer will keep in full effect its

jurisdiction of its formation. The Depositor, the Servicer and the Master
Servicer each will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a
foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall
be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the
Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its respective duties
under this Agreement.

                  The Depositor, the Servicer or the Master Servicer may be
merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially
all of its assets to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any
merger or consolidation to which the Depositor, the Servicer or the Master
Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the
Depositor, the Servicer or the Master Servicer, shall be the successor of the

provided, however, that any successor of the Servicer or the Master Servicer
shall meet the eligibility requirements set forth in clauses (i) and (iii) of
the last paragraph of Section 8.02(a) or Section 7.06, as applicable.

                  Section 7.03. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY OF THE DEPOSITOR, THE
SERVICER, THE MASTER SERVICER AND OTHERS.

                  None of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Master Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees
or agents of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Master Servicer shall be under
any liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken
or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision
shall not protect the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the
Master Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties,
representations or covenants made herein or against any


                                      147

specific liability imposed on any such Person pursuant hereto or against any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Servicer, the
Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator
and the Master Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind
which, PRIMA FACIE, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting
any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent
of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Master
Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund against any
loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating
to this Agreement, the Certificates or any Credit Risk Management Agreement or
any loss, liability or expense incurred other than by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties
hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
hereunder. None of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator or
the Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or
defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties
under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or
liability; provided, however, that each of the Depositor, the Servicer, the
Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake
any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this
Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of
the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except any loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of
the Trust Fund, and the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator
and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the
Collection Account or the Distribution Account as and to the extent provided in
Article III and Article IV, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the
rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account
and the Distribution Account.

                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Servicer shall not be liable for any actions or inactions prior to the Cut-off
Date of any prior servicer of the Mortgage Loans and the Master Servicer shall
not be liable for any action or inaction of the Servicer, except to the extent
expressly provided herein, or the Credit Risk Manager.

                  Section 7.04. LIMITATION ON RESIGNATION OF THE SERVICER.

                  (a) The Servicer shall neither assign all or substantially all
of its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate all
or substantially all of its duties hereunder nor sell or otherwise dispose of
all or substantially all of its property or assets (other than as provided in
Section 7.02) without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Master
Servicer and the Certificate Insurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Trustee
and the Master Servicer a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such
transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of all or substantially all of
servicer's property or assets (other than as provided in Section 7.02) will not
result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current



                                      148
<PAGE>

rating of any of the Certificates (and with respect to the Insured Certificates,
without regard to the Certificate Insurance Policy). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer, without the consent of the Trustee or the Master
Servicer, may retain third-party contractors to perform certain servicing and
loan administration functions, including without limitation hazard insurance
administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and
administration, collection services and similar functions, PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the retention of such contractors by the Servicer shall not limit the
obligation of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer shall not resign from the
obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by consent of the Master
Servicer or upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer
permissible under applicable law or as provided in Section 7.04(c). Any such
determination pursuant to the preceding sentence permitting the resignation
(other than pursuant to Section 7.04(c)) of the Servicer shall be evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Servicer and
delivered to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies. No resignation of the Servicer
shall become effective until the Master Servicer or a successor Servicer shall
have assumed the Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than
those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and
obligations under this Agreement.

                  (b) Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall
not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to
any other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint
any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be
performed by the Servicer hereunder. The foregoing prohibition on assignment
shall not prohibit the Servicer from designating a Sub-Servicer as payee of any
indemnification amount payable to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however,
that as provided in Section 3.02, no Sub-Servicer shall be a third-party
beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto shall not be required to recognize
any Sub-Servicer as an indemnitee under this Agreement.

                  (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
Servicer may pledge or assign as collateral all its rights, title and interest
under this Agreement to a lender (the "Lender"), provided, that:

                                    (1) upon an Event of Default and receipt of
                  a notice of termination by the Servicer, the Lender may direct
                  the Servicer or its designee to appoint a successor Servicer
                  pursuant to the provisions, and subject to the conditions, set
                  forth in Section 8.02 regarding the Servicer's appointment of
                  a successor Servicer;

                                    (2) the Lender's rights are subject to this
                  Agreement; and

                                    (3) the Servicer shall remain subject to
                  termination as servicer under this Agreement pursuant to the
                  terms hereof.

                  Section 7.05. LIMITATION ON RESIGNATION OF THE MASTER
SERVICER.

                  The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and
duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder
are no longer permissible



                                      149
<PAGE>

under applicable law. Any such determination pursuant to the preceding sentence
permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Master Servicer
and delivered to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies. No resignation of the
Master Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor Master
Servicer meeting the criteria specified in Section 7.06 shall have assumed the
Master Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those
liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations
under this Agreement.

                  Section 7.06. ASSIGNMENT OF MASTER SERVICING.

                  The Master Servicer may sell and assign its rights and
delegate its duties and obligations in its entirety as Master Servicer under
this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accept
in writing such assignment and delegation and assume the obligations of the
Master Servicer hereunder (a) shall have a net worth of not less than
$15,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause
(ii) below); (b) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (as evidenced
in a writing signed by the Trustee) and the Certificate Insurer; and (c) shall
execute and deliver to the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such
Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and
condition to be performed or observed by it as master servicer under this
Agreement, any custodial agreement from and after the effective date of such
agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior written notice of the
identity of the proposed successor to the Master Servicer and each Rating
Agency's rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such
assignment, sale and delegation will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn
as a result of such assignment, sale and delegation, as evidenced by a letter to
such effect delivered to the Master Servicer and the Trustee; and (iii) the
Master Servicer assigning and selling the master servicing shall deliver to the
Trustee an officer's certificate and an Opinion of Independent counsel, each
stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement have
been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of
this Agreement. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any liability of
the Master Servicer arising out of acts or omissions prior to the effective date
thereof.

                  Section 7.07. RIGHTS OF THE DEPOSITOR IN RESPECT OF THE
SERVICER AND THE MASTER SERVICER.

                  Each of the Master Servicer and the Servicer shall afford (and
any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that each Sub-Servicer shall afford)
the Depositor and the Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during normal business
hours, access to all records maintained by the Master Servicer or the Servicer
(and any such Sub-Servicer) in respect of the Servicer's rights and obligations
hereunder and access to officers of the Master Servicer or the Servicer (and
those of any such Sub-Servicer) responsible for such obligations, and the Master
Servicer shall have access to all such records maintained by the Servicer and
any Sub-Servicers. Upon request, each of the Master Servicer and the Servicer
shall furnish to the Depositor and the Trustee its (and any such Sub-Servicer's)
most recent financial statements (or, in the case of the Servicer, the most
recent financial statements of the consolidated group that includes the
Servicer) and such other information relating to the Master Servicer's or the
Servicer's capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement as it
possesses (and that any such Sub-Servicer possesses). To the extent



                                      150
<PAGE>

such information is not otherwise available to the public, the Depositor and the
Trustee shall not disseminate any information obtained pursuant to the preceding
two sentences without the Master Servicer's or the Servicer's written consent,
except as required pursuant to this Agreement or to the extent that it is
appropriate to do so (i) to its legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or
other governmental agencies and the Certificateholders, (ii) pursuant to any
law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court
or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor and the Trustee
or the Trust Fund, and in any case, the Depositor or the Trustee, (iii)
disclosure of any and all information that is or becomes publicly known, or
information obtained by the Trustee from sources other than the Depositor, the
Servicer or the Master Servicer, (iv) disclosure as required pursuant to this
Agreement or (v) disclosure of any and all information (A) in any preliminary or
final offering circular, registration statement or contract or other document
pertaining to the transactions contemplated by the Agreement approved in advance
by the Depositor, the Servicer or the Master Servicer or (B) to any affiliate,
independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Trustee
having a need to know the same, provided that the Trustee advises such recipient
of the confidential nature of the information being disclosed, shall use its
best efforts to assure the confidentiality of any such disseminated non-public
information. Nothing in this Section 7.07 shall limit the obligation of the
Servicer to comply with any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information
regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of the Servicer to provide access as
provided in this Section 7.07 as a result of such obligation shall not
constitute a breach of this Section. Nothing in this Section 7.07 shall require
the Servicer to collect, create, collate or otherwise generate any information
that it does not generate in its usual course of business. The Servicer shall
not be required to make copies of or ship documents to any party unless
provisions have been made for the reimbursement of the costs thereof. The
Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master
Servicer and the Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to,
perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master
Servicer or the Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of the
Master Servicer or the Servicer under this Agreement; provided that neither the
Master Servicer nor the Servicer shall be relieved of any of its obligations
under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its
designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any
action or failure to act by the Master Servicer or the Servicer and is not
obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer or the Servicer
under this Agreement or otherwise.

                  Section 7.08. DUTIES OF THE CREDIT RISK MANAGER.

                  For and on behalf of the Depositor, the Credit Risk Manager
will provide reports and recommendations concerning certain delinquent and
defaulted Mortgage Loans, and as to the collection of any Prepayment Charges
with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Such reports and recommendations will be
based upon information provided to the Credit Risk Manager pursuant to the
Credit Risk Management Agreements, and the Credit Risk Manager shall look solely
to the Servicer and/or Master Servicer for all information and data (including
loss and delinquency information and data) relating to the servicing of the
related Mortgage Loans. Upon any termination of the Credit Risk Manager or the
appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager, the Depositor shall give written
notice thereof to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and each
Rating Agency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination of the Credit Risk




                                      151
<PAGE>

Manager pursuant to this Section shall not become effective until the
appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager.

                  Section 7.09. LIMITATION UPON LIABILITY OF THE CREDIT RISK
MANAGER.

                  Neither the Credit Risk Manager, nor any of its directors,
officers, employees, or agents shall be under any liability to the Trustee, the
Certificateholders, or the Depositor for any action taken or for refraining from
the taking of any action made in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, in
reliance upon information provided by the Servicer under the related Credit Risk
Management Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this
provision shall not protect the Credit Risk Manager or any such person against
liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance or
bad faith in its performance of its duties. The Credit Risk Manager and any
director, officer, employee, or agent of the Credit Risk Manager may rely in
good faith on any document of any kind PRIMA FACIE properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder, and may rely
in good faith upon the accuracy of information furnished by the Servicer
pursuant to the related Credit Risk Management Agreement in the performance of
its duties thereunder and hereunder.

                  Section 7.10. REMOVAL OF THE CREDIT RISK MANAGER.

                  The Credit Risk Manager may be removed as Credit Risk Manager
by Certificateholders holding not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting Rights in the
Trust Fund, in the exercise of its or their sole discretion. The
Certificateholders shall provide written notice of the Credit Risk Manager's
removal to the Trustee. Upon receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall provide
written notice to the Credit Risk Manager of its removal, which shall be
effective upon receipt of such notice by the Credit Risk Manager.

                                     DEFAULT

                  Section 8.01. SERVICER EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

                  (a) "Servicer Event of Default," wherever used herein, means
any one of the following events:

                           (i) any failure by the Servicer to remit to the
         Securities Administrator for distribution to the Certificateholders any
         payment (other than a P&I Advance required to be made from its own
         funds on any Servicer Remittance Date pursuant to Section 5.03)
         required to be made under the terms of the Certificates and this
         Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day
         after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the
         same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the
         Depositor or the Trustee (in which case notice shall be provided by
         telecopy), or to the Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee and by the
         Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights;
         or

                           (ii) any failure on the part of the Servicer duly to
         observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants
         or agreements on the part of the Servicer contained in this Agreement,
         or the material breach by the Servicer of any representation and
         warranty contained in Section 2.05, which continues unremedied for a
         period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such
         failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to
         the Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee or to the Servicer, the
         Depositor and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates entitled to at
         least 25% of the Voting Rights; provided, however, that in the case of
         a failure that cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, the cure period
         may be extended for an additional thirty (30) days if the Servicer can
         demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee that the
         Servicer is diligently pursuing remedial action; or

                           (iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or
         supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an
         involuntary case under any present or future federal or state
         bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a
         conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment
         of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding,
         or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been
         entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have
         remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 90 days; or

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

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



                                      153
<PAGE>

                           (vi) failure by the Servicer to duly perform, within
         the required time period, its obligations under Section 3.17, 3.18 or
         3.19 which failure continues unremedied for a period of ten (10) days
         after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the
         same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by any party
         to this Agreement; or

                           (vii) any failure of the Servicer to make any P&I
         Advance on any Servicer Remittance Date required to be made from its
         own funds pursuant to Section 5.03 which continues unremedied until
         3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day immediately following the
         Servicer Remittance Date.

If a Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (vi) of this
Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such
Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor or the
Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, by notice in
writing to the Servicer (and to the Depositor if given by the Trustee or to the
Trustee if given by the Depositor) with a copy to the Master Servicer and each
Rating Agency, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer in
its capacity as the Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by
law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. If a Servicer
Event of Default described in clause (vii) hereof shall occur, the Trustee
shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer, the Depositor and the Master
Servicer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer in its
capacity as the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans
and the proceeds thereof. Subject to Section 8.02, on or after the receipt by
the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer
under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a
Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and
be vested in the Master Servicer pursuant to and under this Section, and,
without limitation, the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered, as
attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the
expense of the Servicer, any and all documents and other instruments and to do
or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and
endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or
otherwise. The Servicer agrees promptly (and in any event no later than ten
Business Days subsequent to such notice) to provide the Master Servicer with all
documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Servicer's
functions under this Agreement, and to cooperate with the Master Servicer in
effecting the termination of the Servicer's responsibilities and rights under
this Agreement, including, without limitation, the transfer within one Business
Day to the Master Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts which at
the time shall be or should have been credited by the Servicer to the Collection
Account held by or on behalf of the Servicer or thereafter be received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property (provided, however, that the
Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing
to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether
in respect of P&I Advances, Servicing Advances, accrued and unpaid Servicing
Fees or otherwise, and shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section
7.03, notwithstanding any such termination, with respect to events occurring
prior to such termination). For purposes of this Section 8.01(a), the Trustee
shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Servicer Event of Default unless a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Trustee's
Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of
any event which is in fact such a



                                      154
<PAGE>

Servicer Event of Default is received by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office and such notice references the Certificates, the Trust or this Agreement.
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Master Servicer and the Rating Agencies of
the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default of which it has knowledge as
provided above.

                  The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the
Servicer (or from amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account if the Servicer
is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all reasonable out-of-pocket
or third party costs associated with the transfer of servicing from the
predecessor Servicer (or if the predecessor Servicer is the Master Servicer,
from the Trust), including without limitation, any reasonable out-of-pocket or
third party costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all
servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing
data as may be required by the Master Servicer to correct any errors or
insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer
to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively, upon presentation of
reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. The Servicer shall be
responsible for the costs set forth in this paragraph with respect to one
servicing transfer.

                  (b) "Master Servicer Event of Default," wherever used herein,
means any one of the following events:

                           (i) any failure on the part of the Master Servicer
         duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the
         covenants or agreements on the part of the Master Servicer contained in
         this Agreement, or the breach by the Master Servicer of any
         representation and warranty contained in Section 2.04, which continues
         unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written
         notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
         been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee or to
         the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by the Holders of
         Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or

                           (ii) a decree or order of a court or agency or
         supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an
         involuntary case under any present or future federal or state
         bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a
         conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment
         of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding,
         or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been
         entered against the Master Servicer and such decree or order shall have
         remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 90 days; or

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

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

If a Master Servicer Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every
such case, so long as such Master Servicer Event of Default shall not have been
remedied, the Depositor or the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, the Trustee
shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Depositor if
given by the Trustee or to the Trustee if given by the Depositor) with a copy to
each Rating Agency, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master
Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent
permitted by law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On
or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all
authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with
respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the
Mortgage Loans or otherwise including, without limitation, the compensation
payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement, shall pass to and be vested
in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section, and, without limitation, the
Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to
execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Master Servicer, any
and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts
or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of
the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer
agrees promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to
such notice) to provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by
it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer's functions under this Agreement,
and to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master
Servicer's responsibilities and rights under this Agreement (provided, however,
that the Master Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts
accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such
termination and shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.03,
notwithstanding any such termination, with respect to events occurring prior to
such termination). For purposes of this Section 8.01(b), the Trustee shall not
be deemed to have knowledge of a Master Servicer Event of Default unless a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Trustee's
Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of
any event which is in fact such a Master Servicer Event of Default is received
by the Trustee and such notice references the Certificates, the Trust or this
Agreement. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of the
occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default of which it has knowledge as
provided above.

                  To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Trustee
related to the termination of the Master Servicer, appointment of a successor
Master Servicer or the transfer and assumption of the master servicing by the
Trustee (including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and all
due diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the potential
termination of the Master Servicer as a result of a Master Servicer Event of
Default and (ii) all costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer of
the master servicing, including all servicing files and all servicing data and
the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be
required by the successor Master Servicer to correct any errors or
insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the successor
Master Servicer to master service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this
Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the terminated Master
Servicer, the Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and
expenses from the Distribution Account.

                  Section 8.02. MASTER SERVICER TO ACT; APPOINTMENT OF t
SUCCESSOR.

                  (a)On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of
termination, the Master Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the
Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions
set forth or provided for herein, and all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter shall be assumed by the
Master Servicer (except for any representations or warranties of the Servicer
under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in
Section 2.03 and the obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant
to Section 3.10(b)) by the terms and provisions hereof including, without
limitation, the Servicer's obligations to make P&I Advances pursuant to Section
5.03; provided, however, that if the Master Servicer is prohibited by law or
regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent mortgage
loans, then the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to make P&I Advances
pursuant to Section 5.03; and provided further, that any failure to perform such
duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer's failure to provide
information required by Section 8.01 shall not be considered a default by the
Master Servicer as successor to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that
(1) it is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a
period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the actual servicing
functions can be fully transferred to the Master Servicer or any successor
Servicer appointed in accordance with the following provisions and (2) any
failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer's
failure to provide information required by Section 8.01 shall not be considered
a default by the Master Servicer as successor to the Servicer hereunder. As
compensation therefor, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing
Fee and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Servicer would
have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the
above and subject to the immediately following paragraph, the Master Servicer
may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act
promptly appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a
Person that satisfies the eligibility criteria set forth below as the successor
to the Servicer under this Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the
responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement.

                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event
shall the Trustee or the Master Servicer be liable for any Servicing Fee or for
any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder and the
amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as successor Servicer
under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.

                  Any successor Servicer appointed under this Agreement must (i)
be an established mortgage loan servicing institution that is a Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac approved seller/servicer, (ii) be approved by each Rating Agency by
a written confirmation from each Rating Agency that the appointment of such
successor Servicer would not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the then
current ratings of any outstanding Class of Certificates (without regard to the
Certificate Insurance Policy), (iii) have a net worth of not less than
$15,000,000, (iv) be reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and (v)
assume all the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer (other
than liabilities of the Servicer hereunder incurred prior to termination of the
Servicer under Section 8.01 herein) under this Agreement as if originally named
as a party to this Agreement.

                  (b)(1) All servicing transfer costs (including, without
limitation, servicing transfer costs of the type described in Section 8.02(a)
and incurred by the Trustee, the Master Servicer and any successor Servicer
under paragraph (b)(2) below) shall be paid by the terminated Servicer upon
presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor
or initial Servicer, as applicable, defaults in its obligation to pay such
costs, the successor Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be
entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the Trust Fund.

                  (2) No appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this
Agreement shall be effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the
Servicer's responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder. In connection
with such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage
Loans as it and such successor shall agree; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such
compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer as such
hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action,
consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall act in such capacity as hereinabove
provided.

                  Section 8.03. NOTIFICATION TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.

                  (a)Upon any termination of the Servicer or the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.01(a) or (b) or any appointment of a successor to the
Servicer or the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 8.02, the Trustee shall give
prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

                  (b)Not later than the later of 60 days after the occurrence of
any event, which constitutes or which, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would constitute a Servicer Event of Default or a Master Servicer Event of
Default or five days after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of
the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all
Holders of Certificates notice of each such occurrence, unless such default or
Servicer Event of Default or Master Servicer Event of Default shall have been
cured or waived.

                  Section 8.04. WAIVER OF SERVICER EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

                  The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights
evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default, Servicer Event
of Default or Master Servicer Event of Default hereunder may waive such default,
Servicer Event of Default or Master Servicer Event of Default; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that a Servicer Event of Default under clause (i) or (vii) of Section
8.01(a) may be waived only by all of the Holders of the Regular Certificates.
Upon any such waiver of a default, Servicer Event of Default or Master Servicer
Event of Default, such default, Servicer Event of Default or Master Servicer
Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied
for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default, Servicer Event of Default or Master Servicer Event of Default or
impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

                                   ARTICLE IX

             CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE AND THE SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR

                  Section 9.01. DUTIES OF TRUSTEE AND SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR.

                  The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer
Event of Default and after the curing or waiver of all Master Servicer Events of
Default which may have occurred, and the Securities Administrator each undertake
to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in
this Agreement as duties of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator,
respectively. During the continuance of a Master Servicer Event of Default, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trustee enumerated in
this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.

                  Each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, upon
receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports,
documents, orders or other instruments furnished to it, which are specifically
required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall
examine them to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this
Agreement. If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of
this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator, as the case may be, shall take such action as it deems
appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not
corrected to its satisfaction, the Securities Administrator will provide notice
to the Trustee thereof and the Trustee will provide notice to the
Certificateholders.

                  The Trustee shall promptly remit to the Servicer any
complaint, claim, demand, notice or other document (collectively, the "Notices")
delivered to the Trustee as a consequence of the assignment of any Mortgage Loan
hereunder and relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans; provided than any
such notice (i) is delivered to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, (ii)
contains information sufficient to permit the Trustee to make a determination
that the real property to which such document relates is a Mortgaged Property.
The Trustee shall have no duty hereunder with respect to any Notice it may
receive or which may be alleged to have been delivered to or served upon it
unless such Notice is delivered to it or served upon it at its Corporate Trust
Office and such Notice contains the information required pursuant to clause (ii)
of the preceding sentence.

                  No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve
the Trustee or the Securities Administrator from liability for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act or its own misconduct; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that:

                           (i) Prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer
         Event of Default, and after the curing or waiver of all such Master
         Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred with respect to the
         Trustee and at all times with respect to the Securities Administrator,
         the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by
         the express provisions of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the
         Securities Administrator shall be liable except for the performance of
         such duties and obligations as are



                                      159
<PAGE>

         specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or
         obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee or
         the Securities Administrator and, in the absence of bad faith on the
         part of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, the
         Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, may conclusively
         rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
         opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished
         to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, that
         conform to the requirements of this Agreement;

                           (ii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities
         Administrator shall be liable for an error of judgment made in good
         faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee
         or an officer or officers of the Securities Administrator,
         respectively, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee or the
         Securities Administrator, respectively, was negligent in ascertaining
         the pertinent facts; and

                           (iii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities
         Administrator shall be liable with respect to any action taken,
         suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with
         the direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25%
         of the Voting Rights relating to the time, method and place of
         conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or
         the Securities Administrator or exercising any trust or power conferred
         upon the Trustee or the Securities Administrator under this Agreement.

         auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion,
         report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper
         or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been
         signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

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

                           (iii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities
         Administrator shall be under any obligation to exercise any of the
         trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute,
         conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the
         request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant
         to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders
         shall have offered to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as
         the case may be, reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it
         against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred
         therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve
         the Trustee of the obligation,



                                      160
<PAGE>

         upon the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default (which has
         not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers
         vested in it by this Agreement, and to 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;

                           (iv) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities
         Administrator shall be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted
         by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
         discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

                           (v) Prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer
         Event of Default hereunder and after the curing or waiver of all Master
         Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred with respect to the
         Trustee and at all times with respect to the Securities Administrator,
         neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be bound to
         make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
         resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report,
         notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or
         document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of
         Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; PROVIDED,
         HOWEVER, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee or
         the Securities Administrator of the costs, expenses or liabilities
         likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in
         the opinion of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as
         applicable, not reasonably assured to the Trustee or the Securities
         Administrator by such Certificateholders, the Trustee or the Securities
         Administrator, as applicable, may require reasonable indemnity
         satisfactory to it against such expense, or liability from such
         Certificateholders as a condition to taking any such action;

                           (vi) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or
         powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by
         or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible

         resulting from the investment of funds held in the Collection Account,
         for any loss resulting from the investment of funds held in the Reserve
         Fund or for any loss resulting from the redemption or sale of any such
         investment as therein authorized;

                           (viii) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice
         of any default, Master Servicer Event of Default or Servicer Event of
         Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
         knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in
         fact such a default is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
         at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice
         references the Certificates and this Agreement; and

                           (ix) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities
         and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its
         right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by,

the Certificates, enforceable by the Trustee, may be enforced by it without the

shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor, or if at
any time the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall become incapable of
acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee
or the Securities Administrator or of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator, as applicable and appoint a successor trustee or
successor securities administrator, as applicable, by written instrument, in

the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee or predecessor securities
administrator shall become effective and such successor trustee or successor
securities administrator without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as trustee or
securities administrator herein. The predecessor trustee or predecessor
securities administrator shall deliver to the successor trustee or successor
securities administrator all Mortgage Loan Documents and related documents and
statements to the extent held by it hereunder, as well as all moneys, held by it
hereunder, and the Depositor and the predecessor trustee or predecessor

other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting
and confirming in the successor trustee or successor securities administrator

eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and the appointment of such
successor trustee or successor securities administrator shall not result in a
downgrading of any Class of Certificates by any Rating Agency, as evidenced by a

                  Section 9.10. APPOINTMENT OF CO-TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE TRUSTEE.

                  Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the REMIC I or property securing the same may at the time be located,
the Trustee shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments
to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or
co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees,
of all or any part of REMIC I, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such

Section 9.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the
appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under

                  In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate
trustee pursuant to this Section 9.10 all rights, powers, duties and obligations
conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
any particular act or acts are to be performed by the Trustee (whether as
Trustee hereunder or as successor to a defaulting Master Servicer hereunder),
the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in
which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding
of title to REMIC I or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be
exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction
of the Trustee.

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

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

distribution at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator where
notices and demands to or upon the Securities Administrator in respect of the
Certificates and this Agreement may be served.

                  Section 9.12. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

                  The Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer and the Depositor as
applicable, as of the Closing Date, that:

                           (i) It is a banking corporation duly organized,
         validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
         New York.

                           (ii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by
         it, and the performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement
         by it, will not violate its articles of association or bylaws or
         constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time,
         or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of,
         any material agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or
         which is applicable to it or any of its assets.

                           (iii) It has the full power and authority to enter
         into and consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
         has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this
         Agreement, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.

                           (iv) This Agreement, assuming due authorization,
         execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes a
         valid, legal and binding obligation of it, enforceable against it in
         accordance with the terms hereof, subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy,
         insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium and other laws



                                      167
<PAGE>

         affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (B)
         general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is
         considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

                           (v) It is not in violation of, and its execution and
         delivery of this Agreement and its performance and compliance with the
         terms of this Agreement will not constitute a violation of, any law,
         any order or decree of any court or arbiter, or any order, regulation
         or demand of any federal, state or local governmental or regulatory
         authority, which violation, in its good faith and reasonable judgment,
         is likely to affect materially and adversely either the ability of it
         to perform its obligations under this Agreement or its financial
         condition.

                           (vi) No litigation is pending or, to the best of its
         knowledge, threatened against it, which would prohibit it from entering
         into this Agreement or, in its good faith reasonable judgment, is
         likely to materially and adversely affect either the ability of it to
         perform its obligations under this Agreement or its financial
         condition.

                                   TERMINATION

                  Section 10.01. TERMINATION UPON REPURCHASE OR LIQUIDATION OF
ALL MORTGAGE LOANS.

                  (a)Subject to Section 10.02, the respective obligations and
responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Securities Administrator, the Servicer and the Trustee (other than the
obligations of the Master Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.05 and
of the Servicer to make remittances to the Securities Administrator and the

Interests, REMIC I Regular Interests or the Classes of Certificates as
hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders
and the deposit of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required
hereunder to be so paid or deposited on the Distribution Date coinciding with or
following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase by the Holder of the Class CE
Certificates of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I
and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect

the Class CE Certificates of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining
in REMIC I shall be at a price (the "Termination Price") equal to the sum of (i)
the greater of (A) the aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans
included in REMIC I, plus the appraised value of each REO Property, if any,
included in REMIC I, such appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser mutually
agreed upon by the Holder of the Class CE Certificates and the Trustee in their
reasonable discretion and (B) the aggregate fair market value of all of the
assets of REMIC I (as determined by the Holder of the Class CE Certificates and
the Trustee, as of the close of business on the third Business Day next
preceding the date upon which notice of any such termination is furnished to
Certificateholders pursuant to the third paragraph of this Section 10.01) plus
(ii) any amounts due the Servicer and the Master Servicer in respect of unpaid
Servicing Fees, Master Servicing Fees and outstanding P&I Advances and Servicing
Advances plus (iii) any Premium Amounts and Reimbursement Amounts owed to the
Certificate Insurer under this Agreement. If a termination pursuant to this
Section 10.01(a) or Section 10.01(b) will result in a claim under the
Certificate Insurance Policy or if any amount owed to the Certificate Insurer
will not be fully reimbursed after such termination, the consent of the
Certificate Insurer shall be required prior to the Holder of the Class CE
Certificates exercising such option.

                  (b)The Holder of the Class CE Certificates shall have the
right to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in
REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph no later than the
Determination Date in the month immediately preceding the Distribution Date on

in the Trust Fund at the time of such election is reduced to less than 10% of
the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off
Date. By acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the Holder of the Residual
Certificates agrees, in connection with any termination hereunder, to assign and
transfer any portion of the Termination Price in excess of par, and to the
extent received in respect of such termination, to pay any such amounts to the
Holders of the Class CE Certificates.

                  (c)Notice of the liquidation of the Certificates shall be
given promptly by the Securities Administrator by letter to the
Certificateholders mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection
with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property by the Holder of
the Class CE Certificates, not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the
25th day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the
Certificates or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or

in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests, REMIC I Regular Interests or the
Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of the related
Certificates at the office of the Securities Administrator therein designated,
(ii) the amount of any such final payment, (iii) that no interest shall accrue
in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests, REMIC I Regular Interests or
Certificates from and after the Interest Accrual Period relating to the final
Distribution Date therefor and (iv) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to
such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Securities
Administrator. In the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase
of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I by the
Holder of the Class CE Certificates, the Holder of the Class CE Certificates
shall deliver to the Securities Administrator for deposit in the Distribution
Account not later than the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date on which

funds equal to the above-described Termination Price. The Securities
Administrator shall remit to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and
the Custodian from such funds deposited in the Distribution Account (i) any
amounts which the Servicer would be permitted to withdraw and retain from the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.09 as if such funds had been deposited
therein (including all unpaid Servicing Fees and all outstanding P&I Advances
and Servicing Advances) and (ii) any other amounts otherwise payable by the
Securities Administrator to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Custodian and
the Servicer from amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement prior to making any final distributions pursuant to
Section 10.01(d) below. Upon certification to the Trustee by the Securities
Administrator of the making of such final deposit, the Trustee shall promptly
release or cause to be released to the Holder of the Class CE Certificates the
Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and Trustee shall execute all
assignments, endorsements and other instruments delivered to it and necessary to
effectuate such transfer.

                  (d)Upon presentation of the Certificates by the
Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator
shall distribute to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its
Certificates the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date in
accordance with Section 5.01 in respect of the Certificates so presented and
surrendered. Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates
being



                                      170
<PAGE>

retired on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or
Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held
in trust and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or
Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this
Section 10.01 shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months
after the time specified in such notice, the Securities Administrator shall mail
a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender
their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution
with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities
Administrator shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final notice to the
remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their
Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of
contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in
the trust funds. If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities Administrator
shall pay to the Depositor all such amounts, and all rights of non-tendering
Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease. No interest
shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust
by the Securities Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder's failure
to surrender its Certificate(s) on the final Distribution Date for final payment
thereof in accordance with this Section 10.01. Any such amounts held in trust by
the Securities Administrator shall be held uninvested in an Eligible Account.

                  Section 10.02. ADDITIONAL TERMINATION REQUIREMENTS.

                  (a)In the event that the Holder of the Class CE Certificates

         Opinion of Counsel obtained by and at the expense of the Holder of the
         Class CE Certificates;

         the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of REMIC I to the Holder of
         the Class CE Certificates for cash; and

                           (iii) At the time of the making of the final payment

         cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust Fund shall terminate at
         that time.

                  (b)At the expense of the requesting Holder of the Class CE

Securities Administrator, each such Person (i) shall take such action and shall
cause each REMIC created hereunder to take such action as shall be necessary to
create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions,
(ii) shall not take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail
to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC

status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax
upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited
transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on
contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such
event, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless such action or inaction is permitted
under this Agreement or the Trustee and the Securities Administrator have
received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the them (at the expense of the
party seeking to take such action but in no event at the expense of the Trustee
or the Securities Administrator) to the effect that the contemplated action will
not, with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such status or result in the
imposition of such a tax, nor (iii) shall the Securities Administrator take or
fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the
Trustee has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action;
provided that the Securities Administrator may conclusively rely on such Opinion
of Counsel and shall incur no liability for its action or failure to act in
accordance with such Opinion of Counsel. In addition, prior to taking any action
with respect to any Trust REMIC or the respective assets of each, or causing any
Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not contemplated under the terms of
this Agreement, the Securities Administrator will consult with the Trustee or
its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any Trust REMIC, and the Securities
Administrator shall not take any such action or cause any Trust REMIC to take
any such action as to which the Trustee has advised it in writing that an
Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Trustee may consult with counsel to make
such written advice, and the cost of same shall be home by the party seeking to
take the action not permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost
be an expense of the Trustee.

Trust REMIC other than in connection with any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan
delivered in accordance with Section 2.03 unless it shall have received an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in the Trust
Fund will not cause the related REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding or subject such REMIC to any tax under the
REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law
or ordinances.

                  (j)Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall
knowingly enter into any arrangement by which any Trust REMIC will receive a fee

the Trustee, but without the consent of any of the Certificateholders, (i) to
cure any ambiguity or defect, (ii) to correct, modify or supplement any
provisions herein (including to give effect to the expectations of
Certificateholders), or (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to
matters or questions arising under this Agreement or the Certificate Insurance
Policy which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement,
provided that the prior consent of the Certificate Insurer shall be required for
any amendment that affects its rights, duties or obligations and that such
action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the
Trustee, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder or the Certificate Insurer; provided that any such amendment
shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
the Certificateholders and no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required if the
Person requesting such amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency
stating that such amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of
the respective ratings then assigned to the Certificates (without regard to the
Certificate Insurance Policy). No amendment shall be deemed to adversely affect
in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder who shall have
consented thereto, and no Opinion of Counsel shall be required to address the
effect of any such amendment on any such consenting Certificateholder.

the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least
66% of the Voting Rights for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing
in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; PROVIDED,

delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to
be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such
Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Holders of any Class of Certificates or the Certificate Insurer in a manner,
other than as described in (i), without the consent of the Holders of
Certificates of such Class evidencing at least 66% of the Voting Rights
allocated to such Class, or (iii) modify the consents required by the
immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) without the consent of the Holders of
all Certificates then outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to
this Section 12.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or a
Servicer or any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to Voting Rights with
respect to matters affecting such Certificates. Without limiting the generality

Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall

permitted hereunder and will not result in the imposition of any tax on any
Trust REMIC pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding and that
such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement.

                  Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee
shall furnish a copy of such amendment to each Certificateholder.

                  It shall not be necessary for the consent of
Certificateholders under this Section 12.01 to approve the particular form of
any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve
the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing
the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

                  The cost of any Opinion of Counsel to be delivered pursuant to
this Section 12.01 shall be borne by the Person seeking the related amendment,
but in no event shall such Opinion of Counsel be an expense of the Trustee .

                  The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to enter into any
amendment pursuant to this Section that affects its rights, duties and
immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be
executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which

under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal,

                  Section 12.09. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST.

                  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the
conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee, on behalf of
the Trust and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, be, and be construed
as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor and not a pledge of the
Mortgage Loans to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However,
in the event that, notwithstanding the aforementioned intent of the parties, the
Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Depositor, then, (a) it is the
express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the
Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust and for
the benefit of the Certificateholders, to secure a debt or other obligation of
the Depositor and (b)(1) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security
agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code
as in effect from time to time in the State of New York; (2) the conveyance
provided for in Section 2.01 shall be deemed to be a grant by the Depositor to
the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of the Depositor's right,
title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and all amounts payable to the
holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and all
proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into
cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation
all amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested
in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account, whether in the form of
cash, instruments, securities or other property; (3) the obligations secured by
such security agreement shall be deemed to be all of the Depositor's obligations
under this Agreement, including the obligation to provide to the
Certificateholders the benefits of this Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loans
and the Trust Fund; and (4) notifications to persons holding such property, and
acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property,
shall be



                                      181
<PAGE>

deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from,
financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for
the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.
Accordingly, the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust
and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, a security interest in the
Mortgage Loans and all other property described in clause (2) of the preceding
sentence, for the purpose of securing to the Trustee the performance by the
Depositor of the obligations described in clause (3) of the preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto intend the conveyance pursuant
to Section 2.01 to be a true, absolute and unconditional sale of the Mortgage
Loans and assets constituting the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee, on
behalf of the Trust and for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

                  Section 12.10. SURVIVAL OF INDEMNIFICATION.

                  Any and all indemnities to be provided by any party to this
Agreement shall survive the termination and resignation of any party hereto and
the termination of this Agreement.

                  The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain
collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans and payments received
pursuant to the Cap Contracts, all as more specifically set forth herein and in
the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection
Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes
other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including
reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to
the Mortgage Loans. [The Class A-1B Certificates will have the benefit of a
financial guaranty policy issued by XL Capital Assurance Inc.]

                  The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Servicer and the rights of the Certificateholders under the
Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator and the Servicer with the consent of the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by
the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder
and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued
upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not
notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also
permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

                  As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable
in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration
of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities

                                      A-1-5

Administrator as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by
an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof
or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more
new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the
same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee
or transferees.

                  The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only
without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests
specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

                  No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of
Certificates.

                  The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Servicer and any agent of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Servicer may
treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

                  The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund
created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all
amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them
pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or
other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage
Loan remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off
Date.

                  The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of
the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assumes
any responsibility for their correctness.

                  Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate
shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any
purpose.

                  As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable
in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration
of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator
as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment
in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such
Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

                  The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only
without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests
specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

                  Any transferee of this Certificate shall be deemed to make the
representations set forth in Section 6.02(c) of the Agreement.

                  No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of
Certificates.

                  The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Servicer and any agent of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Servicer may
treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

                  The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund
created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all
amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them
pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or
other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage
Loan remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off
Date.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the
Servicer and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator and the Servicer with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the
Holders of any of the Certificates.

         As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the
offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator as provided in the
Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below
or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities
Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same
Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without
coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified
in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

         No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and an effective registration or
qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a
transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the
event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without
registration or qualification, the Securities Administrator shall require
receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule
144A or Regulation S under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder
of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder's
prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as
Exhibit B-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to
it that such transfer may be made without such registration or qualification
(which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator in
their respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written
certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the
transfer and/or such Holder's prospective transferee upon which


                                      A-3-5
<PAGE>

such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the Depositor, the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator is obligated to register or qualify the Class of
Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other
securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement
to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or
qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate
shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and the Securities Administrator against any liability that may result if the
transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws.

         No transfer of this Class B-[1][2][3][4][5] Certificate will be made
unless the Depositor, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator have received
a representation letter, in the form as described by the Agreement, stating that
either (i) the transferee is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to
the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a
"Plan"), or any other person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary
or a trustee of any Plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of or
purchasing any Certificate with "plan assets" of any Plan or (ii) (A) it is an
insurance company, (B) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the
certificate or interest therein is an "insurance company general account," as
such term is defined in Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60,
and (C) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.

         The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Servicer and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Servicer may treat the Person
in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Servicer nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

         The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts
held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them pursuant to
the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other
liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off
Date.

         The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the
Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assume any
responsibility for their correctness.

                  Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be
made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day,
the Business Day immediately following such 25th day (a "Distribution Date"),
commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in
whose name this Certificate is registered on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the month in which the related Distribution
Date occurs (the "Record Date"), in an amount equal to the product of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be
distributed to the Holders of Class CE Certificates on such Distribution Date
pursuant to the Agreement.

                  All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the
Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Securities Administrator by
wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person
entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities

Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be
made after due notice by the Securities Administrator of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the
office or agency appointed by the Securities Administrator for that purpose as
provided in the Agreement.

                  This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of
Certificates designated as Asset Backed Pass-Through Certificate of the Series
specified on the face hereof (herein called the "Certificates") and representing
a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof
equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face
hereof.

                  The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain
collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the
Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account
may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

                  The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Servicer and the rights of the Certificateholders under the
Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator and the Servicer with the consent of the Holders of

to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by
the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder
and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued
upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not
notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also
permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

                  As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable
in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration
of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator
as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment
in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such
Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

                  No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the
transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and an effective
registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made
in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In
the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without
registration or qualification, the Securities Administrator shall require
receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule
144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the
Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder's prospective
transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit B-1,
and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such
transfer may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion
of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator in their respective
capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's
prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the
Depositor, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator is obligated to register
or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933
Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required
under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without
registration or qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this
Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator against any liability that may
result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such
federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf
of any such Plan or any Person using "Plan Assets" to acquire this Certificate
shall be made except in accordance with Section 6.02(c) of the Agreement.

                  The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only
without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests
specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange
of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

                  The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Servicer and any agent of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Servicer may
treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

                  The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund
created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all
amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them
pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or
other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage
Loan remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off
Date.

                  The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of
the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assume
any responsibility for their correctness.

                  Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate
shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any
purpose.

                  The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only
without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests
specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange
of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

                  The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Servicer and any agent of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Servicer may
treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

                  The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund
created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all
amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them
pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of

                                      A-5-5

(i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto)
of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the
party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the
Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in
respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage
Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price
determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect
early retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject
to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of
purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage
Loans as of the Cut-off Date.

                  The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of
the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assume
any responsibility for their correctness.

                  Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate
shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any
purpose.

which such Holder is bound.

                  Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be

Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

                  The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Servicer and the rights of the Certificateholders under the
Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator and the Servicer with the consent of the Holders of

the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder
and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued
upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not
notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also
permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

                  As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable
in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration
of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator
as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment
in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such
Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

                  The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only
without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests
specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

                  No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the
transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and an effective
registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made
in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In
the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without
registration or qualification, the Securities Administrator shall require
receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule
144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the
Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder's prospective
transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit B-1,
and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such
transfer may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion
of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator in their respective
capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's
prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the
Depositor, the Trustee or the Securities


                                      A-6-5
<PAGE>

Administrator is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates
specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or
to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the
transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Holder
desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify
the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator
against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not
made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

                  No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf
of any such Plan or any Person using "Plan Assets" to acquire this Certificate
shall be made except in accordance with Section 6.02 of the Agreement.

                  Prior to registration of any transfer, sale or other
disposition of this Certificate, the proposed transferee shall provide to the
Securities Administrator (i) an affidavit to the effect that such transferee is
any Person other than a Disqualified Organization or the agent (including a
broker, nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, and (ii) a
certificate that acknowledges that (A) the Class R Certificates have been
designated as representing the beneficial ownership of the residual interests in
each of REMIC I and REMIC II, (B) it will include in its income a PRO RATA share
of the net income of the Trust Fund and that such income may be an "excess
inclusion," as defined in the Code, that, with certain exceptions, cannot be
offset by other losses or benefits from any tax exemption, and (C) it expects to
have the financial means to satisfy all of its tax obligations including those
relating to holding the Class R Certificates. Notwithstanding the registration
in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or an agent (including a broker,
nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, such registration shall be
deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Person shall not be
deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose, including, but not limited to,
the receipt of distributions in respect of this Certificate.

                  The Holder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof,
shall be deemed to have consented to the provisions of Section 6.02 of the
Agreement and to any amendment of the Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of
the Depositor to ensure that the transfer of this Certificate to any Person
other than a Permitted Transferee or any other Person will not cause any portion
of the Trust Fund to cease to qualify as a REMIC or cause the imposition of a
tax upon any REMIC.

                  No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of
Certificates.

                  The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Servicer and any agent of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Servicer may
treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee,


                                      A-6-6
<PAGE>

the Securities Administrator, the Servicer nor any such agent shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.

                  The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund
created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all
amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them
pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or
other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage
Loan remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off
Date.

                  The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of
the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assume
any responsibility for their correctness.

                  Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate
shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any
purpose.

                  In connection with the transfer by ______________________ (the
"Transferor") to ___________________ (the "Transferee") of the captioned
mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Certificates"), the Transferor hereby

                  Neither the Transferor nor anyone acting on its behalf has (a)
offered, pledged, sold, disposed of or otherwise transferred any Certificate,
any interest in any Certificate or any other similar security to any person in
any manner, (b) has solicited any offer to buy or to accept a pledge,
disposition or other transfer of any Certificate, any interest in any
Certificate or any other similar security from any person in any manner, (c) has
otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to any Certificate, any interest
in any Certificate or any other similar security with any person in any manner,
(d) has made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any
other manner, (e) has taken any other action, that (in the case of each of
subclauses (a) through (e) above) would constitute a distribution of the

would render the disposition of any Certificate a violation of Section 5 of the
1933 Act or any state securities law or would require registration or
qualification pursuant thereto. The Transferor will not act, nor has it
authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in any manner set forth in
the foregoing sentence with respect to any Certificate. The Transferor will not
sell or otherwise transfer any of the Certificates, except in compliance with

                  and understands that such Certificate may be resold, pledged
                  or transferred only (i) to a person reasonably believed to be
                  a 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

                  another exemption from registration under the 1933 Act.

                           2. The Transferee has been furnished with all
                  information regarding (a) the Certificates and distributions

                  of 1986, as amended ("Plan"), or any other person (including
                  an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any
                  Plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of or
                  purchasing any Certificate with "plan assets" of any Plan

                  the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
                  Securities Administrator and the Servicer may rely, acceptable
                  to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee to
                  the effect that the purchase of Certificates is permissible
                  under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any

            QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER STATUS UNDER SEC RULE 144A
            --------------------------------------------------------

          [For Transferees Other Than Registered Investment Companies]

                  The undersigned hereby certifies as follows to [name of
Transferor] (the "Transferor") and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Securities
Administrator, with respect to the asset backed pass-through certificates (the
"Certificates") described in the Transferee Certificate to which this
certification relates and to which this certification is an Annex:

                  1. As indicated below, the undersigned is the President, Chief
Financial Officer, Senior Vice President or other executive officer of the
entity purchasing the Certificates (the "Transferee").

                  2. In connection with purchases by the Transferee, the
Transferee is a "qualified institutional buyer" as that term is defined in Rule
144A under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Rule 144A") because (i) the Transferee
owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis $________________1 in securities
(except for the excluded securities referred to below) as of the end of the

with Rule 144A) and (ii) the Transferee satisfies the criteria in the category

         ___      CORPORATION, ETC. The Transferee is a corporation (other than
                  a bank, savings and loan association or similar institution),
                  Massachusetts or similar business trust, partnership, or any
                  organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal

                  institution organized under the laws of any State, territory
                  or the District of Columbia, the business of which is
                  substantially confined to banking and is supervised by the

                  supervision over any such institutions or is a foreign savings
                  and loan association or equivalent institution and (b) has an
                  audited net worth of at least $25,000,000 as demonstrated in
                  its latest annual financial statements, A COPY OF WHICH IS
                  ATTACHED HERETO.

-----------------------------------
1     Transferee must own and/or invest on a discretionary basis at least
      $100,000,000 in securities unless Transferee is a dealer, and, in that
      case, Transferee must own and/or invest on a discretionary basis at least
      $10,000,000 in securities.

                                     B-1-5
<PAGE>

          ___  BROKER-DEALER. The Transferee is a dealer registered pursuant to
               Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

          ___  INSURANCE COMPANY. The Transferee 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 Transferee is a plan established and
               maintained by a State, its political subdivisions, or any agency
               or instrumentality of the State or its political subdivisions,
               for the benefit of its employees.

          ___  ERISA PLAN. The Transferee is an employee benefit plan within the
               meaning of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
               of 1974.

          ___  INVESTMENT ADVISOR The Transferee is an investment advisor
               registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.

                  3. The term "SECURITIES" as used herein DOES NOT INCLUDE (i)
securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee, (ii) securities
that are part of an unsold allotment to or subscription by the Transferee, if
the Transferee is a dealer, (iii) securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. or
any instrumentality thereof, (iv) bank deposit notes and certificates of
deposit, (v) loan participations, (vi) repurchase agreements, (vii) securities
owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (viii) currency, interest rate
and commodity swaps.

                  4. For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of
securities owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee, the
Transferee used the cost of such securities to the Transferee and did not
include any of the securities referred to in the preceding paragraph. Further,
in determining such aggregate amount, the Transferee may have included
securities owned by subsidiaries of the Transferee, but only if such
subsidiaries are consolidated with the Transferee in its financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and if the
investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the Transferee's direction.
However, such securities were not included if the Transferee is a
majority-owned, consolidated subsidiary of another enterprise and the Transferee
is not itself a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

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

         ___      ___    Will the Transferee be purchasing the Certificates
         Yes      No     only for the Transferee's own account?

                  6. If the answer to the foregoing question is "no", the
Transferee agrees that, in connection with any purchase of securities sold to
the Transferee for the account of a third

                                     B-1-6
<PAGE>

party (including any separate account) in reliance on Rule 144A, the Transferee
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 Transferee agrees that the Transferee will not purchase securities for a
third party unless the Transferee has obtained a current representation letter
from such third party or taken other appropriate steps contemplated by Rule 144A

Company Act of 1940, and (ii) as marked below, the Transferee alone, or the
Transferee's Family of Investment Companies, owned at least $100,000,000 in

of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year. For purposes of determining the

                  3. The term "FAMILY OF INVESTMENT COMPANIES" as used herein
means two or more registered investment companies (or series thereof) that have
the same investment adviser or investment advisers that are affiliated (by
virtue of being majority owned subsidiaries of the same parent or because one
investment adviser is a majority owned subsidiary of the other).

                  4. The term "SECURITIES" as used herein does not include (i)

         manner, (d) make any general solicitation by means of general
         advertising or in any other manner or (e) take any other action, that
         (as to any of (a) through (e) above) would constitute a distribution of
         any Certificate under the Act, that would render the disposition of any
         Certificate a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act or any state
         securities law, or that would require registration or qualification
         pursuant thereto. The Transferee will not sell or otherwise transfer
         any of the Certificates, except in compliance with the provisions of
         the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         plan subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of the Employee
         Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or

         the purchase of Certificates 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 Trust Fund,
         the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the
         Depositor or the Servicer to any obligation or liability (including
         obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in
         addition to those undertaken in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Servicer that the Transferee will not

                  ____________________. ____ and (ii) is acquiring the Class R
                  Certificates for its own account or for the account of
                  another Owner from which it has received an affidavit in
                  substantially the same form as this affidavit. A "Permitted
                  Transferee" is any person other than a "disqualified
                  organization" or a possession of the United States. For this
                  purpose, a "disqualified organization" means the United
                  States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any
                  agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other
                  than an instrumentality all of the activities of which are
                  subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan
                  Mortgage Corporation, a majority of whose board of directors
                  is not selected by any such governmental entity) or any
                  foreign government, international organization or any agency
                  or instrumentality of such foreign government or
                  organization, any real electric or telephone cooperative, or
                  any organization (other than certain farmers' cooperatives)
                  that is generally exempt from federal income tax unless such
                  organization is subject to the tax on unrelated business
                  taxable income.

         3.       The  Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on
                  transfers of the Class R Certificates to disqualified
                  organizations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that
                  applies to all transfers of the Class R Certificates after
                  April 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the
                  transferor or, if such transfer is through an agent (which
                  person includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a
                  non-Permitted Transferee, on the agent; (iii) that the
                  person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of
                  liability for the tax if the transferee furnishes to such
                  person an affidavit that the transferee is a Permitted
                  Transferee and, at the time of transfer, such person does
                  not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and
                  (iv) that each of the Class R Certificates may be a
                  "noneconomic residual interest" within the meaning of
                  proposed Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code and
                  that the transferor of a "noneconomic residual interest"
                  will remain liable for

                                      B-3-2
<PAGE>

                  any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual
                  interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer is
                  to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

         4.       The Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a "pass-through
                  entity" holding the Class R Certificates if, at any time
                  during the taxable year of the pass-through entity, a
                  non-Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest
                  in such entity. (For this purpose, a "pass-through entity"
                  includes a regulated investment company, a real estate
                  investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or
                  estate, and certain cooperatives.)

         5.       The Owner is aware that the Securities Administrator will not
                  register the transfer of any Class R Certificate unless the
                  transferee, or the transferee's agent, delivers to the
                  Securities Administrator, among other things, an affidavit in
                  substantially the same form as this affidavit. The Owner
                  expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer
                  if it knows or believes that any of the representations
                  contained in such affidavit and agreement are false.

         6.       The Owner consents to any additional restrictions or
                  arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of
                  counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that
                  the Class R Certificates will only be owned, directly or
                  indirectly, by an Owner that is a Permitted Transferee.

         7.       The Owner's taxpayer identification number is
                  ________________.

         8.       The Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face
                  of the Class R Certificates and the provisions of Section
                  6.02(d) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the
                  Class R Certificates were issued (in particular, clauses
                  (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 6.02(d) which authorize the
                  Securities Administrator to deliver payments to a person other
                  than the Owner and negotiate a mandatory sale by the
                  Securities Administrator in the event that the Owner holds
                  such Certificate in violation of Section 6.02(d)); and that
                  the Owner expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with
                  such restrictions and provisions.

         9.       The Owner is not acquiring and will not transfer the Class R
                  Certificates in order to impede the assessment or collection
                  of any tax.

         10.      The Owner anticipates that it will, so long as it holds the
                  Class R Certificates, have sufficient assets to pay any taxes
                  owed by the holder of such Class R Certificates, and hereby
                  represents to and for the benefit of the person from whom it
                  acquired the Class R Certificates that the Owner intends to
                  pay taxes associated with holding such Class R Certificates as
                  they become due, fully understanding that it may incur tax
                  liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Class
                  R Certificates.

         11.      The Owner has no present knowledge that it may become
                  insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as
                  it holds the Class R Certificates.

                                      B-3-3
<PAGE>

         12.      The Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will
                  be unable to pay any United States taxes owed by it so long as
                  any of the Certificates remain outstanding.

         13.      The Owner is not acquiring the Class R Certificates with the
                  intent to transfer the Class R Certificates to any person or
                  entity that will not have sufficient assets to pay any taxes
                  owed by the holder of such Class R Certificates, or that may
                  become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, for so
                  long as the Class R Certificates remain outstanding.

         14.      The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes
                  of the Class R Certificates, obtain from its transferee the
                  representations required by Section 6.02(d) of the Pooling and
                  Servicing Agreement under which the Class R Certificate were
                  issued and will not consummate any such transfer if it knows,
                  or knows facts that should lead it to believe, that any such
                  representations are false.

         15.      The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes
                  of the Class R Certificates, deliver to the Securities
                  Administrator an affidavit, which represents and warrants that
                  it is not transferring the Class R Certificates to impede the
                  assessment or collection of any tax and that it has no actual
                  knowledge that the proposed transferee: (i) has insufficient
                  assets to pay any taxes owed by such transferee as holder of
                  the Class R Certificates; (ii) may become insolvent or subject
                  to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as the Class R
                  Certificates remains outstanding; and (iii) is not a
                  "Permitted Transferee".

         16.      The Owner is a citizen or resident of the United States, a
                  corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized
                  in, or under the laws of, the United States or any political
                  subdivision thereof, or an estate or trust whose income from
                  sources without the United States may be included in gross
                  income for United States federal income tax purposes
                  regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade or
                  business within the United States.

         17.      The Owner of the Class R Certificate, hereby agrees that in
                  the event that the Trust Fund created by the Pooling and
                  Servicing Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.01
                  thereof, the undersigned shall assign and transfer to the
                  Holders of the Class CE and the Class P Certificates any
                  amounts in excess of par received in connection with such
                  termination. Accordingly, in the event of such termination,
                  the Securities Administrator is hereby authorized to
                  withhold any such amounts in excess of par and to pay such
                  amounts directly to the Holders of the Class CE and the
                  Class P Certificates. This agreement shall bind and be
                  enforceable against any successor, transferee or assigned of
                  the undersigned in the Class R Certificate. In connection
                  with any transfer of the Class R Certificate, the Owner
                  shall obtain an agreement substantially similar to this
                  clause from any subsequent owner.

COUNTY OF NEW YORK         )

                  _________________________, being duly sworn, deposes,
represents and warrants as follows:

                  1. I am a ____________________ of _________________________
(the "Owner"), a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of
_____________, on behalf of whom I make this affidavit.

                  2. The Owner is not transferring the Class R Certificates (the
"Residual Certificates") to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

                  3. The Owner has no actual knowledge that the Person that is
the proposed transferee (the "Purchaser") of the Residual Certificates: (i) has
insufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by such proposed transferee as holder
of the Residual Certificates; (ii) may become insolvent or subject to a
bankruptcy proceeding for so long as the Residual Certificates remain
outstanding and (iii) is not a Permitted Transferee.

                  4. The Owner understands that the Purchaser has delivered to
the Trustee or a transfer affidavit and agreement in the form attached to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit B-2. The Owner does not know or
believe that any representation contained therein is false.

                  5. At the time of transfer, the Owner has conducted a
reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Purchaser as
contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result
of that investigation, the Owner has determined that the Purchaser has
historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant
evidence to indicate that the Purchaser will not continue to pay its debts as
they become due in the future. The Owner understands that the transfer of a
Residual Certificate may not be respected for United States income tax purposes
(and the Owner may continue to be liable for United States income taxes
associated therewith) unless the Owner has conducted such an investigation.

                  6. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
