<PAGE>

     THIS MORTGAGE LOAN PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of December 1, 2005 (the
"Agreement"), is made and entered into between Fremont Investment & Loan (the
"Originator" or "Fremont") and Fremont Mortgage Securities Corporation (the
"Purchaser").

                                   WITNESSETH

     WHEREAS, the Originator is the owner of the notes or other evidence of
indebtedness (collectively, the "Mortgage Notes") so indicated on Schedule A
attached hereto and the other documents or instruments constituting the Mortgage
File (collectively, the "Mortgage Loans"); and

     WHEREAS, the Originator, as of the date hereof, owns the mortgages
(collectively, the "Mortgages") on the properties (collectively, the "Mortgaged
Properties") securing the Mortgage Loans, including rights to (a) any property
acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise and (b) the
proceeds of any insurance policies covering such Mortgage Loans or the related
Mortgaged Properties or the obligors on such Mortgage Loans; and

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire that the Originator sell the Mortgage
Loans to the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of that certain Pooling and Servicing
Agreement dated as of December 1, 2005 (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement")
among the Purchaser, as depositor, Fremont, as originator and servicer, HSBC
Bank USA, National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"), Wells Fargo Bank,
N.A., as master servicer (in such capacity, the "Master Servicer") and as trust
administrator (in such capacity, the "Trust Administrator"), the Purchaser will
convey the Mortgage Loans to Fremont Home Loan Trust 2005-E (the "Trust").

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
the parties hereto agree as follows:

                                    ARTICLE I

                            DEFINITIONS AND SCHEDULES

     Section 1.01. Definitions.

     Any capitalized term used but not defined herein and below shall have the
meaning assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE II

                SALE OF MORTGAGE LOANS; PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE

     Section 2.01. Sale of Mortgage Loans.

     The Originator, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over, and otherwise convey to
the Purchaser, without recourse,

<PAGE>

(i) all of its right, title and interest in and to each of the Mortgage Loans,
including the related principal balance of such Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off
Date (the "Cut-off Date Principal Balance") and interest and principal received
on or with respect thereto after the Cut-off Date, other than such amounts which
were due on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date; (ii) property
which secured such Mortgage Loan and which has been acquired by foreclosure,
deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise; (iii) its interest in any insurance
policies in respect of the Mortgage Loans; and (iv) all proceeds of the
conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of any of the foregoing into cash or other
liquid property.

     Section 2.02. Obligations of the Originator Upon Sale.

     In connection with the transfer pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the
Originator further agrees, at its own expense, on or prior to the Closing Date
or as otherwise indicated in this Section 2.02, (a) to indicate in its books,
records and computer systems that the Mortgage Loans have been sold to the
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, (b) to deliver to the Purchaser and the
Trustee a computer file containing a true and complete list of all such Mortgage
Loans specifying for each Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-off Date, (i) its account
number and (ii) the Cut-off Date Principal Balance and such file, which forms a
part of Schedule I to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall also be marked
as Schedule A to this Agreement and is hereby incorporated into and made a part
of this Agreement and (c) for each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage
Loan, to execute an Assignment of Mortgage in blank for each Mortgage Loan.

     In connection with such conveyance by the Originator, the Originator shall
on behalf of the Purchaser deliver to, and deposit with the Trust Administrator,
as custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as assignee of the Purchaser, the
Mortgage Files relating to the Mortgage Loans on or before the Closing Date in
the manner set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     The Purchaser hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and
interest to the Mortgage Loans and other property, now existing or hereafter
created, conveyed to it pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

     The parties hereto intend that the transaction set forth herein be a
non-recourse sale by the Originator to the Purchaser of all of the Originator's
right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and other property
described above. Nonetheless, in the event the transaction set forth herein is
deemed not to be a sale, the Originator hereby grants to the Purchaser a
security interest in all of the Originator's right, title and interest in, to
and under the Mortgage Loans and other property described above, whether now
existing or hereafter created, to secure all of the Originator's obligations
hereunder, and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law. The Originator and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent
with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if
this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans,
such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of
first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout
the term of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

<PAGE>

     Section 2.03. Payment of Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loans.

     In consideration of the sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Originator to
the Purchaser on the Closing Date, the Purchaser agrees to pay to the Originator
on the Closing Date by transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal
to the net proceeds received from the sale of the Offered Certificates (other
than the Class B2 Certificates) and to transfer to the Originator or its
designee on the Closing Date the Class B2, Class C, Class P, Class R and Class
RX Certificates (collectively, the "Purchase Price"). The Originator shall pay,
and be billed directly for, all reasonable expenses incurred by the Purchaser in
connection with the issuance of the Certificates, including, without limitation,
printing fees incurred in connection with the offering documents relating to the
Certificates, fees and expenses of Purchaser's counsel, fees of the rating
agencies requested to rate the Certificates, accountant's fees and expenses and
the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator and other
out-of-pocket costs, if any.

                                   ARTICLE III

               REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REMEDIES FOR BREACH

     Section 3.01. Originator's Representations and Warranties Relating to the
Mortgage Loans.

     The Originator represents and warrants to the Purchaser the representations
and warranties set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto with respect to each
Mortgage Loan as of the Closing Date (or as of such date specifically provided
therein).

     Section 3.02. Additional Originator's Representations and Warranties.

     The Originator represents, warrants and covenants to the Purchaser as of
the Closing Date (or as of such other date specifically provided herein) that:

     (a) The Originator is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation
and has all licenses necessary to carry on its business as now being conducted
and is licensed, qualified and in good standing in each state wherein it owns or
leases any material properties or where a Mortgaged Property is located, if the
laws of such state require licensing or qualification in order to conduct
business of the type conducted by the Originator, and in any event the
Originator is in compliance with the laws of any such state to the extent
necessary to ensure the enforceability of the related Mortgage Loan in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement; the Originator has the full
corporate power, authority and legal right to hold, transfer and convey the
Mortgage Loans and to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its
obligations hereunder; the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
(including all instruments of transfer to be delivered pursuant to this
Agreement) by the Originator and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized; this Agreement and
all agreements contemplated hereby have been duly executed and delivered and
constitute the valid,

<PAGE>

legal, binding and enforceable obligations of the Originator, regardless of
whether such enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law; and all
requisite corporate action has been taken by the Originator to make this
Agreement and all agreements contemplated hereby valid and binding upon the
Originator in accordance with their terms;

     (b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the acquisition
or origination of the Mortgage Loans by the Originator, the sale of the Mortgage
Loans to the Purchaser, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
and by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, nor the fulfillment of or compliance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will conflict with or result in
a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Originator's
charter, by-laws or other organizational documents or any legal restriction or
any agreement or instrument to which the Originator is now a party or by which
it is bound, or constitute a default or result in an acceleration under any of
the foregoing, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment or decree to which the Originator or its property is subject, or result
in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance that would have
material adverse effect upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any
mortgage, contract, deed of trust or other instrument, or impair the ability of
the Purchaser to realize on the Mortgage Loans, impair the value of the Mortgage
Loans, or impair the ability of the Purchaser to realize the full amount of any
insurance benefits accruing pursuant to this Agreement;

     (c) The Originator does not believe, nor does it have any reason or cause
to believe, that it cannot perform each and every covenant contained in this
Agreement. The Originator is solvent and the sale of the Mortgage Loans will not
cause the Originator to become insolvent. The sale of the Mortgage Loans is not
undertaken with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of Originator's
creditors;

     (d) Immediately prior to the delivery of each Mortgage Loan, the Originator
was the owner of the related Mortgage and the indebtedness evidenced by the
related Mortgage Note. In the event that the Originator retains record title, it
shall retain such record title to each Mortgage, each related Mortgage Note and
the related Mortgage Files with respect thereto in trust for the Purchaser or
its assignee as the owner thereof and only for the purpose of servicing and
supervising the servicing of each such Mortgage Loan;

     (e) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to
the best of the Originator's knowledge, threatened against the Originator,
before any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (i) asserting the
invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) which, either in any one
instance or in the aggregate, is likely to result in any material adverse change
in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the
Originator, or in any material impairment of the right or ability of the
Originator to carry on its business substantially as now conducted, or in any
material liability on the part of the Originator, or which would draw into
question the validity of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans or of any action
taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of the Originator
contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability
of the Originator to perform under the terms of this Agreement, (iv) relating to
fraud, or (v) relating to predatory lending, or the Originator's

<PAGE>

origination, servicing or closing practices which is likely to result in any
material adverse change in the business, operations, financial condition,
properties or assets of the Originator.

     (f) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or
filing with, or notice to any court or governmental agency is required for the
execution, delivery and performance by the Originator of or compliance by the
Originator with this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans, the delivery of a portion
of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee or the sale of the Mortgage Loans or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or if required,
such approval has been obtained prior to the Closing Date;

     (g) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are
in the ordinary course of business of the Originator, and the transfer,
assignment and conveyance of the Mortgage Notes and the Mortgages by the
Originator pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to the bulk transfer or
any similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction;

     (h) Neither this Agreement nor any information, statement, tape, diskette,
report, form, or other document furnished or to be furnished by the Originator
pursuant to this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement or in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby contains or will contain any material
untrue statement of fact;

     (i) The Originator, as Servicer, has the facilities, procedures, and
experienced personnel necessary for the sound servicing of mortgage loans of the
same type as the Mortgage Loans. The Originator is duly qualified, licensed,
registered and otherwise authorized under all applicable federal, state and
local laws, and regulations, and is in good standing to enforce, originate, sell
mortgage loans, and service mortgage loans in each jurisdiction wherein the
Mortgaged Properties are located;

     (j) The Originator is a member of MERS in good standing, and will comply in
all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with
the servicing of the MERS Mortgage Loans for as long as such Mortgage Loans are
registered with MERS.

     (k) The Mortgage Loans were not intentionally selected from among the
outstanding one- to four-family mortgage loans in the Originator's portfolio at
the Closing Date as to which the representations and warranties set forth in
Exhibit A could not be made;

     (l) The Originator has delivered to the Purchaser financial statements as
to its last three complete fiscal years and any later quarter ended more than 60
days prior to the execution of this Agreement. All such financial statements
fairly present the pertinent results of operations and changes in financial
position for each of such periods and the financial position at the end of each
such period of the Originator and its subsidiaries and have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
throughout the periods involved, except as set forth in the notes thereto or as
required by the Originator's regulator. There has been no change in the
business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the
Originator since the date of the Originator's financial statements that would
have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations under
this Agreement;

     (m) The Originator has been advised by its independent certified public
accountants that under generally accepted accounting principles the transfer of
the Mortgage Loans may be

<PAGE>

treated as a sale on the books and records of the Originator and the Originator
has determined that the disposition of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this
Agreement will be afforded sale treatment for tax and accounting purposes;

     (n) The consideration received by the Originator upon the sale of the
Mortgage Loans under this Agreement constitutes fair consideration and
reasonably equivalent value for the Mortgage Loans;

     (o) The Originator's decision to purchase or originate any mortgage loan or
to deny any mortgage loan application is an independent decision based upon
Originator's underwriting guidelines, and is in no way made as a result of
Purchaser's decision to purchase, or not to purchase, or the price Purchaser may
offer to pay for, any such mortgage loan, if originated;

     (p) The Originator makes the following additional representations and
warranties:

          (i) This Agreement conforms to all statutory and regulatory
     requirements applicable to the Originator. This Agreement is (a) executed
     contemporaneously with the agreement reached by the Originator and the
     Purchaser, (b) approved by a specific corporate or banking association
     resolution by the board of directors of the Originator, which approval
     shall be reflected in the minutes of said board, and (c) continuously, from
     the time of its execution, an official record of the Originator;

          (ii) This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized by a specific
     corporate or banking association resolution by the board of directors of
     the Originator. A copy of such resolution, certified by the corporate
     secretary of the Originator or attested to by a vice president or higher
     officer of the Originator has been provided to the Purchaser; and

          (iii) The Originator will maintain a copy of this Agreement in its
     official books and records.

     Section 3.03. Remedies for Breach of Representations and Warranties.

     It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 shall survive the sale of the Mortgage Loans to
the Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser and the Trustee,
notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or
Assignment or the examination or lack of examination of any Mortgage File. With
respect to the representations and warranties contained herein that are made to
the knowledge or the best knowledge of the Originator or as to which the
Originator has no knowledge, if it is discovered that the substance of any such
representation and warranty is inaccurate and the inaccuracy materially and
adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or Loans, or the interest
therein of the Purchaser or the Purchaser's assignee, designee or transferee,
then notwithstanding such lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of
such representation and warranty being inaccurate at the time the representation
and warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the
applicable representation and warranty. Upon discovery by the Originator, the
Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Trustee or the
Purchaser of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties
that

<PAGE>

materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interest
of the Purchaser or the Trustee (or which materially and adversely affects the
value of a Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Purchaser or the Trustee in
such Mortgage Loan in the case of a representation and warranty relating to a
particular Mortgage Loan) (it being understood that a breach of the
representations and warranties set forth in clauses I(ss), I(tt), I(uu), I(ww),
I(bbb), I(jjj), I(lll) and II of Exhibit A attached hereto will be deemed to
materially and adversely affect the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interest
of the Purchaser or the Trustee), the party discovering such breach shall give
prompt written notice to the other parties.

     Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the
Originator of any breach of a representation or warranty that materially and
adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Purchaser
or the Trustee in such Mortgage Loan, the Originator shall use its best efforts
promptly to cure such breach in all material respects. If such breach is not so
cured, the Originator shall, (i) if such 60-day period expires prior to the
second anniversary of the Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted
Mortgage Loan") from the Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, in the manner and subject to the conditions
set forth in this Section and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; or (ii)
repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from the Trustee at the
Purchase Price in the manner set forth in this Section and in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that any such substitution pursuant to
(i) above shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee and the
Trust Administrator of an Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.04 of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if any. The Originator shall promptly reimburse
the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator for any actual
out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Trustee, the Master Servicer
and the Trust Administrator in respect of enforcing the remedies for such
breach.

     At the time of substitution or repurchase of any deficient Mortgage Loan,
the Purchaser and Originator shall arrange for the reassignment of the deficient
or repurchased Mortgage Loan to the Originator, including delivery to the
Trustee of a Request for Release substantially relating to the Deleted Mortgage
Loan, and the delivery to the Originator of any documents held by the Trustee
relating to the deficient or repurchased Mortgage Loan. In the event the
Purchase Price is deposited in the Collection Account, the Originator shall,
simultaneously with such deposit, give written notice to the Purchaser that such
deposit has taken place. Upon such repurchase, the Mortgage Loan Schedule shall
be amended to reflect the withdrawal of the repurchased Mortgage Loan from this
Agreement and, if applicable, the substitution of the applicable Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans.

     If pursuant to this Section 3.03 the Originator repurchases or substitutes
a Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Originator shall, at the
Originator's expense, either (i) cause MERS to execute and deliver an Assignment
of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the
Originator and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the
MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and regulations or (ii) cause MERS
to designate on the MERS(R) System the Originator as the beneficial holder of
such Mortgage Loan.

     As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Originator substitutes a
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Originator shall effect such
substitution by delivering to

<PAGE>

the Purchaser or its designee for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans the Mortgage File and such other documents and agreements as are required
by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as
required therein. No substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month
after the Determination Date for such month.

     The amount, if any, by which (x) the aggregate principal balance of all
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less
than (y) the sum of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted
Mortgage Loans (after application of the scheduled principal portion of the
monthly payments due in the month of substitution) (the "Substitution Adjustment
Amount") plus an amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances with
respect to such Deleted Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the Collection
Account by the Originator on or before the Business Day immediately preceding
the Distribution Date in the month succeeding the calendar month during which
the Originator became obligated hereunder to repurchase or replace the related
Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the deposit to the Collection
Account of any required Substitution Adjustment Amount, the Trustee or the
custodian, as applicable, shall release the Mortgage File held for the benefit
of the Certificateholders relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan and shall
execute and deliver at the Originator's direction such instruments of transfer
or assignment prepared by the Originator, in each case without recourse, as
shall be necessary to transfer title to the Originator, or its designee, of the
Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan substituted pursuant to this
Section 3.03. Upon such substitution, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans
shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the
Originator shall be deemed to have made with respect to such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the
covenants, representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 3.01 and 3.02
hereof.

     One or more mortgage loans may be substituted for one or more Deleted
Mortgage Loans, provided, however, that any such substitution shall not be
effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator of an
Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.04 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, if any. The determination of whether a mortgage loan is a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan may be satisfied on an individual basis. Alternatively,
if more than one mortgage loan is to be substituted for one or more Deleted
Mortgage Loans, the characteristics of such mortgage loans and Deleted Mortgage
Loans shall be aggregated or calculated on a weighted average basis, as
applicable, in determining whether such mortgage loans are Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loans.

     In the event that the Originator shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan,
the Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Collection Account on or
before the Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution Date in the month
following the month during which the Originator became obligated hereunder to
repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan and upon such deposit of the Purchase
Price and receipt of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit J to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee or the custodian, as applicable,
shall release the related Mortgage File held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders to the Originator or its designee, and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver at such Person's direction such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by such Person, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to transfer title to the Originator or its designee of the Trustee's
interest in such Mortgage Loan.

<PAGE>

     It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in Section 3.01 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to
the Trustee on behalf of the Purchaser.

     It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Originator set
forth in this Section 3.03 to cure, repurchase or substitute for a defective
Mortgage Loan and to indemnify the Purchaser as provided in Section 5.01
constitute the sole remedies of the Purchaser respecting a missing or defective
document or a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section
3.01.

                             ORIGINATOR'S COVENANTS

     Section 4.01. Covenants of the Originator.

     The Originator hereby covenants that except for the transfer hereunder, it
will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create,
incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on any Mortgage Loan, or any interest
therein; it will notify the Trustee, as assignee of the Purchaser, of the
existence of any Lien on any Mortgage Loan immediately upon discovery thereof;
and it will defend the right, title and interest of the Trustee, as assignee of
the Purchaser, in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, against all claims of third
parties claiming through or under the Originator; provided, however, that
nothing in this Section 4.01 shall prevent or be deemed to prohibit the
Originator from suffering to exist upon any of the Mortgage Loans any Liens for
municipal or other local taxes and other governmental charges if such taxes or
governmental charges shall not at the time be due and payable or if the
Originator shall currently be contesting the validity thereof in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves
with respect thereto.

all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs,
judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Purchaser or any such
person or entity and any Certificateholder may sustain in any way (i) related to
the failure of the Originator to perform its duties in compliance with the terms
of this Agreement, (ii) arising from a breach by the Originator of its
representations and warranties in Section 3.01 or (iii) related to the
origination or prior servicing of the Mortgage Loans by reason of any acts,
omissions, or alleged acts or omissions of the Originator or any servicer. The
Originator shall promptly notify the Purchaser and the Trustee if a claim is
made by a third party with respect to this Agreement. The Originator shall
assume the defense of any such claim and

<PAGE>

pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and
promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered
against the Purchaser or any such person or entity and/or the Trustee or any
Certificateholder in respect of such claim.

     The parties hereto each agree to execute and deliver to the other such
additional documents, instruments or agreements as may be necessary or
reasonable and appropriate to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement or in
connection with the issuance of any Series of Certificates representing
interests in the Mortgage Loans.

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as a further inducement
for the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans from the Originator, the
Originator will cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with the sale of any
of the securities representing interests in the Mortgage Loans. In that
connection, the Originator will provide to the Purchaser any and all information
and appropriate verification of information, whether through letters of its
auditors

<PAGE>

and counsel or otherwise, as the Purchaser shall reasonably request and will
provide to the Purchaser such additional representations and warranties,
covenants, opinions of counsel, letters from auditors, and certificates of
public officials or officers of the Originator as are reasonably required in
connection with such transactions and the offering of investment grade
securities rated by the Rating Agencies.

     Without limiting the foregoing, the Originator agrees to deliver to the
Purchaser the following documents and opinions in connection with the issuance
of the Fremont Home Loan Trust 2005-E, Mortgage-Backed Certificates, Series
2005-E (the "Certificates") on or before the Closing Date:

          1. one or more opinions of counsel addressed to the Purchaser, and to
     any Person designated by the Purchaser, in a form reasonably acceptable to
     the Purchaser, from counsel to the Originator as to due incorporation and
     good standing, due authorization, execution and delivery by Fremont of
     related agreements for which Fremont is a signatory; the enforceability of
     such documents by Fremont; and other corporate matters;

          2. an opinion of counsel to the Originator, addressed to the
     Purchaser, and to any Person designated by the Purchaser, in a form
     acceptable to the Purchaser, addressing the characterization of the
     transfer of the Mortgage Loans from the Originator to the Purchaser;

          3. an indemnification agreement executed by and among Fremont, Credit
     Suisse First Boston LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities,
     Inc., Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., and UBS Securities LLC
     (collectively, the "Underwriters") for losses as a result of material
     misstatements and omissions in the information provided by or on behalf of
     the parties thereto and their affiliates for inclusion in the prospectus
     supplement or any other offering document relating to the Certificates; and

          4. a statement rendered by counsel for Fremont to the Purchaser and
     the Underwriters as to the lack of material misstatements and omissions in
     the information provided by Fremont for inclusion in the prospectus
     supplement or any other offering document relating to the Certificates.

     In addition, the Originator shall sign the certification for the benefit of
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., relating to the Form 10-K relating to the Trust to be
filed on or before March 31, 2006. The Originator shall execute the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement in its capacity as originator and servicer and will make the
representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 herein to the
Trustee in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     Section 7.07. Intention of the Parties.

     It is the intention of the parties that the Purchaser is purchasing, and
the Originator is selling, the Mortgage Loans rather than pledging such Mortgage
Loans to secure a loan by the Purchaser to the Originator. Accordingly, the
parties hereto each intend to treat the transaction

<PAGE>

as a sale by the Originator, and a purchase by the Purchaser, of the Mortgage
Loans. The Purchaser will have the right to review the Mortgage Loans and the
related Mortgage Files to determine the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans
which will affect the federal income tax consequences of owning the Mortgage
Loans and the Originator will cooperate with all reasonable requests made by the
Purchaser in the course of such review.

     Section 7.08. Successors and Assigns: Assignment of Purchase Agreement.

     This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
the Originator, the Purchaser and the Trustee. The obligations of the Originator
under this Agreement cannot be assigned or delegated to a third party without
the consent of the Purchaser which consent shall be at the Purchaser's sole
discretion, except that the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the
Originator may assign its obligations hereunder to any Person into which the
Originator is merged or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Originator is a party or any Person succeeding to the
business of the Originator. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Purchaser is
acquiring the Mortgage Loans for the purpose of contributing them to a trust
that will issue a Series of Certificates representing undivided interests in
such Mortgage Loans. As an inducement to the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage
Loans, the Originator acknowledges and consents to the assignment by the
Purchaser directly or indirectly through an affiliate to the Trustee of all of
the Purchaser's rights against the Originator pursuant to this Agreement insofar
as such rights relate to Mortgage Loans transferred to the Trustee and to the
enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy against the Originator pursuant
to this Agreement by the Trustee. Such enforcement of a right or remedy by the
Trustee shall have the same force and effect as if the right or remedy had been
enforced or exercised by the Purchaser directly.

     Section 7.09. Survival.

     The representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and
the provisions of Article V hereof shall survive the purchase of the Mortgage
Loans hereunder.

     Section 7.10. Third Party Beneficiaries.

     The Trustee and the Trust Administrator are the intended third-party
beneficiaries of this Agreement.

     Section 7.11. Confidentiality.

     The parties hereto understand and agree that personal information relating
to the borrowers under the Mortgage Loans subject of this Agreement, including,
names, addresses, social security numbers and/or other identifying information
(collectively, the "Borrower Information") is confidential, and the Purchaser,
and each person that acquires an interest in the Mortgage Loans through the
Purchaser, agrees to hold such Borrower Information confidential and not to
divulge such information to anyone except (a) to the extent required by law or
judicial order or to enforce its rights or remedies under any agreements
executed in connection with the sale contemplated hereunder or any agreements
executed in connection with the securitization of

<PAGE>

the Mortgage Loans, (b) to the extent such information enters into the public
domain other than through the wrongful act of the Purchaser or any person that
acquires an interest in the Mortgage Loans through the Purchaser or (c) as is
necessary in working with legal counsel, auditors, agents, rating agencies,
taxing authorities or other governmental agencies.

<PAGE>

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Originator and the Purchaser have caused their
names to be signed to this Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement by their respective
officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first above written.

                                    EXHIBIT A

          Representations and Warranties Relating to the Mortgage Loans

     I. The Originator hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser, with
respect to each Mortgage Loan that is a Mortgage Loan as of the Closing Date (or
in the case of certain specified representations and warranties, as of the
Cut-off Date) or as of such other date specifically provided herein (except that
with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan such representations and
warranties shall be as of the date of substitution and made by the Originator),
that:

     (a) Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the Mortgage
Loan Schedule is complete, true and correct in all material respects as of the
Cut-off Date;

     (b) Payments Current. As of the Closing Date, other than with respect to
not more than 0.55% of the Mortgage Loans by outstanding principal balance, all
payments required to be made up to the Closing Date for the Mortgage Loan under
the terms of the Mortgage Note, other than payments not yet one month
delinquent, have been made and credited. No payment required under the Mortgage
Loan is one month or more delinquent nor has any payment under the Mortgage Loan
been delinquent for more than one month at any time since the origination of the
Mortgage Loan;

     (c) No Outstanding Charges. As of the Closing Date, other than payments due
but not yet one month or more delinquent, there are no defaults in complying
with the terms of the Mortgage, and all taxes, governmental assessments,
insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or
ground rents which previously became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow
of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item
which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable.
The Originator has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly
received any advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or
indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under the Mortgage Loan,
except for interest accruing from the date of the Mortgage Note or date of
disbursement of the Mortgage Loan proceeds, whichever is earlier, to the date
which precedes by one month the Due Date of the first installment of principal
and interest;

     (d) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage
have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the
date of origination except by a written instrument which has been recorded, if
necessary to protect the interests of the Purchaser, and which has been
delivered to the Custodian or to such other Person as the Purchaser shall
designate in writing, and the terms of which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule. No Mortgage Loan has been modified so as to restructure the payment
obligations or re-age the Mortgage Loan. The substance of any such waiver,
alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, if any, to
the extent required by the policy, and its terms are reflected on the Mortgage
Loan Schedule, if applicable. No Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in
part, except in connection with an assumption agreement, approved by the title
insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption agreement is
part of the

Fremont 2005-E
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement


A-1

<PAGE>

Mortgage Loan File delivered to the Custodian or to such other Person as the
Purchaser shall designate in writing and the terms of which are reflected in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule;

     (e) No Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation the
defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage
Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the
Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to
any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without
limitation the defense of usury, and no such right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto, and no Mortgagor
was a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at, or
subsequent to, the time the Mortgage Loan was originated;

     (f) Hazard Insurance. Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, all buildings
or other improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally
acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such
other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is
located. If required by the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
each Mortgage Loan is covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the
requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration
as in effect. All individual insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee
clause naming the Originator and its successors and assigns as mortgagee, and
all premiums thereon have been paid and such policies may not be reduced,
terminated or cancelled without 30 days' prior written notice to the mortgagee.
The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the hazard insurance
policy at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do
so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance
at such Mortgagor's cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement therefor from
the Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been
given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance,
provided the policy is not a "master" or "blanket" hazard insurance policy
covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the common
facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is the
valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and
will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of the Purchaser upon
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The
Originator has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor's or any
servicer's having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the
coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for
herein, or the validity and binding effect of such policy, including, without
limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation
or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any
attorney, firm or other person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been
received, retained or realized by the Originator;

     (g) Compliance with Applicable Laws. Any and all requirements of any
federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury,
truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection,
equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws, all predatory and abusive lending
laws or unfair and deceptive practices laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan,
including, without limitation, any provisions relating to Prepayment Penalties,
have been complied with; the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws or regulations.
Originator shall maintain in its possession,


A-2

<PAGE>

available for the Purchaser's inspection, and shall deliver to the Purchaser
upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such requirements;

     (h) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The Mortgage has not been satisfied,
canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged
Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in
part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such release,
cancellation, subordination or rescission. The Originator has not waived the
performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor's failure to
perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, nor has the
Originator waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the
Mortgagor;

     (i) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is a
fee simple property located in the state identified in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule except that with respect to real property located in jurisdictions in
which the use of leasehold estates for residential properties is a
widely-accepted practice, the Mortgaged Property may be a leasehold estate and
consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single family
residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual
residential condominium unit in a low-rise condominium project, or an individual
unit in a planned unit development and that no residence or dwelling is (i) a
mobile home or (ii) a manufactured home. As of the date of origination, no
portion of the Mortgaged Property was used for commercial purposes, and since
the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property has been used for
commercial purposes; provided, that Mortgaged Properties which contain a home
office shall not be considered as being used for commercial purposes as long as
the Mortgaged Property has not been altered for commercial purposes and is not
storing any chemicals or raw materials other than those commonly used for
homeowner repair, maintenance and/or household purposes;

     (j) Valid First or Second Lien. Each Mortgage is a valid and subsisting
first or second lien of record on a single parcel of real estate constituting
the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings and improvements on the
Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing,
heating and air conditioning systems located in or annexed to such buildings,
and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time, with respect
to the related Mortgage Loan, which exceptions are generally acceptable to
prudent mortgage lending companies, and such other exceptions to which similar
properties are commonly subject and which do not individually, or in the
aggregate, materially and adversely affect the benefits of the security intended
to be provided by such Mortgage. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

          (i) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet
     due and payable;

          (ii) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements
     and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording
     acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and
     specifically referred to in the lender's title insurance policy delivered
     to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (A) specifically referred to or
     otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the
     Mortgage Loan or (B) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of
     the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal;


A-3

<PAGE>

          (iii) with respect to each second lien Mortgage, the first or senior
     lien on the related Mortgaged Property; and

          (iv) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which
     do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to
     be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability
     of the related Mortgaged Property.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and
delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid,
subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien and first priority security
interest on the property described therein and the Originator has full right to
sell and assign the same to Purchaser;

     (k) Validity of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and
any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor in connection with a
Mortgage Loan are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation
of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms (including,
without limitation, any provisions therein relating to Prepayment Penalties),
except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, receivership, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or
affecting the rights of creditors generally, and by general equity principles
(regardless of whether such enforcement is considered a proceeding in equity or
a law). All parties to the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such
related agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to
execute and deliver the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any such agreement, and
the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related agreement have been
duly and properly executed by other such related parties. The documents,
instruments and agreements submitted for loan underwriting were not falsified
and contain no untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the information and
statements therein not misleading. No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation,
gross negligence or similar occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken
place on the part of any Person, including without limitation, the Mortgagor,
any appraiser, any builder or developer, or any other party involved in the
origination or servicing of the Mortgage Loan. The Originator has reviewed all
of the documents constituting the Servicing File;

     (l) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan has been closed and
the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no
requirement for future advances thereunder, and any and all requirements as to
completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any
escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees and expenses
incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the
Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any
amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage;

     (m) Ownership. Immediately prior to the sale of the Mortgage Loan hereunder
on the Closing Date, the Originator is the sole owner of record and holder of
the Mortgage Loan and the indebtedness evidenced by each Mortgage Note and upon
the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, the Originator will retain the
Mortgage Files or any part thereof not delivered to the Custodian, the Purchaser
or the Purchaser's designee, in trust only for the purpose of servicing and
supervising the servicing of each Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan is not
assigned or


A-4

<PAGE>

pledged, and the Originator has good, indefeasible and marketable title thereto,
and has full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser free
and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge,
charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to
no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell and
assign each Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement and following the sale of
each Mortgage Loan, the Purchaser will own such Mortgage Loan free and clear of
any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or
security interest. The Originator intends to relinquish all rights to possess,
control and monitor the Mortgage Loan. After the Closing Date, the Originator
will have no right to modify or alter the terms of the sale of the Mortgage Loan
and the Originator will have no obligation or right to repurchase the Mortgage
Loan or substitute another Mortgage Loan, except as provided in this Agreement;

     (n) Doing Business. All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage
Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the
period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) (i) in compliance
with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state
wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, and (ii) either (A) organized under
the laws of such state, or (B) qualified to do business in such state, or (C) a
federal savings and loan association, a savings bank or a national bank having a
principal office in such state, or (iii) not doing business in such state;

     (o) LTV. No Mortgage Loan was originated with an LTV greater than 100%;

     (p) Title Insurance. The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title
insurance policy, or with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which the related
Mortgaged Property is located in California a CLTA lender's title insurance
policy, and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer and
qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is
located, insuring the Originator, its successors and assigns, as to the first or
second priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the
Mortgage Loan, subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (i), (ii) and
(iv) of paragraph (j) above and in the case of second liens, the exception
contained in clause (iii) of paragraph (j) above, and in the case of Adjustable
Rate Mortgage Loans, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or
unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage
providing for adjustment to the Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment.
Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the
opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance.
Additionally, such lender's title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress
and egress, and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any
interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special exceptions
(other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been marked to
delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey exception
with a specific survey reading. The Originator, its successor and assigns, are
the sole insureds of such lender's title insurance policy, and such lender's
title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be
in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. No claims are pending under such lender's title insurance
policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including the Originator,
has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such
lender's title insurance policy, including without limitation, no unlawful fee,
commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has
been or will

be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other person or
entity, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by
the Originator;

     (q) No Defaults. As of the Closing Date, other than with respect to not
more than 0.55% of the Mortgage Loans by outstanding principal balance and other
than payment delinquencies of less than one month, there is no default, breach,
violation or event which would permit acceleration existing under the Mortgage
or the Mortgage Note and no event which, with the passage of time or with notice
and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default,
breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration, and as of the
Closing Date neither the Originator nor any of its affiliates nor any of their
respective predecessors, have waived any default, breach, violation or event
which would permit acceleration; in addition, as of the Closing Date, no
Mortgage Loan was in foreclosure, nor are foreclosure proceedings imminent with
respect to any Mortgage Loan;

     (r) No Mechanics' Liens. As of the Closing Date, there are no mechanics' or
similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and
no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to such liens)
affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or
equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage;

     (s) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements which were
considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lay
wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged
Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the
Mortgaged Property. No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged
Property is in violation of any applicable zoning law or regulation;

     (t) Origination; Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loan was originated by a
mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to
Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, savings and loan association,
a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or other
similar institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state
authority. The documents, instruments and agreements submitted for loan
underwriting were not falsified and contain no untrue statement of material fact
or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the information and statements therein not misleading. No Mortgage Loan
contains terms or provisions which would result in negative amortization.
Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan (other than a Mortgage Loan that does
not provide for payment of principal for a period of twenty-four to thirty-six
months after the date of origination (such Mortgage Loan, an "Interest Only
Mortgage Loan")) commenced no more than sixty days after funds were disbursed in
connection with the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Interest Rate as well as the
Lifetime Rate Cap and the Periodic Mortgage Interest Rate Cap are as set forth
on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an
Interest Only Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Note is payable in equal monthly
installments of principal and interest, which installments of interest, with
respect to Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans, are subject to change due to the
adjustments to the Mortgage Interest Rate on each Mortgage Interest Rate
Adjustment Date, with interest calculated and payable in arrears, sufficient to
amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the stated maturity date, over an original
term of not more than thirty years from commencement of amortization. None of
the Mortgage Loans allows for conversion of the interest rate thereon from an
adjustable rate to a fixed rate. No Mortgage Loan is a simple interest mortgage
loan;


A-6

<PAGE>

     (u) Customary Provisions. The Mortgage contains customary and enforceable
provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof
adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of
the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage
designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial
foreclosure. Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on,
or trustee's sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures,
the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable
title to the Mortgaged Property. There is no homestead or other exemption
available to a Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the
Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage,
subject to applicable federal and state laws and judicial precedent with respect
to bankruptcy and right of redemption or similar law;

     (v) Conformance with Underwriting Guidelines. The Mortgage Loan was
underwritten in accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines in effect as of the
date of origination of such Mortgage Loan (as described in the Prospectus
Supplement). The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms generally acceptable to
Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae and the Originator has not made any representations to
a Mortgagor that are inconsistent with the mortgage instruments used;

     (w) Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property. As of the Closing Date the
Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law. All inspections,
licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all
occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and
occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy
and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the
appropriate authorities;

     (x) No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been
secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the
security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage
referred to in clause (j) above;

     (y) Deeds of Trust. In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust,
a trustee, authorized and duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such,
has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the
Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Purchaser to
the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a reconveyance of
the deed of trust or a trustee's sale after default by the Mortgagor;

     (z) Condominiums/Planned Unit Developments. If the Mortgaged Property is a
condominium unit or a planned unit development (other than a de minimis planned
unit development) such condominium or planned unit development project is
acceptable to Originator and underwritten in accordance with the Underwriting
Guidelines;

     (aa) Transfer of Mortgage Loans. The Assignment of Mortgage with respect to
each Mortgage Loan is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under
the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located. The
transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Mortgage Notes and the Mortgages by
the Originator is not subject to the bulk transfer or similar statutory
provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction;


A-7

<PAGE>

     (bb) Due-On-Sale. The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision (except as
such enforcement may be effected by bankruptcy and insolvency laws or by general
principals of equity) for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid
principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property
is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the mortgagee
thereunder, and to the best of the Originator's knowledge, such provision is
enforceable;

     (cc) Assumability. None of the Mortgage Loans are, by their terms,
assumable;

     (dd) No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent Interests.
The Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments
are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account
established by the Originator, the Mortgagor, or anyone on behalf of the
Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor nor does it contain
any other similar provisions which may constitute a "buydown" provision. The
Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the Mortgage Loan
does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature;

     (ee) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future advances made to the
Mortgagor prior to the Cut-off Date have been consolidated with the outstanding
principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as
consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term. The lien
of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured
as having first or second lien priority, as applicable, by a title insurance
policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee's consolidated
interest or by other title evidence. The consolidated principal amount does not
exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan;

     (ff) Mortgaged Property Undamaged; No Condemnation Proceedings. There is no
proceeding pending or, to the best of the Originator's knowledge, threatened for
the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property. As of the Closing
Date, the Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth
movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect adversely
the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use
for which the premises were intended and each Mortgaged Property is inhabitable
under applicable state and local laws;

     (gg) Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits; Interest Rate Adjustments. The
origination, servicing and collection practices used by the Originator with
respect to the Mortgage Loan have been in all respects in compliance with
Accepted Servicing Practices, applicable laws and regulations, and have been in
all respects legal and proper and prudent in the mortgage origination and
servicing business. With respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments, all
such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, the Originator
and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary
arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All Escrow Payments have
been collected in full compliance with state and federal law and the provisions
of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage. An escrow of funds is not prohibited
by applicable law and has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for
every item that remains unpaid and has been assessed but is not yet due and
payable. No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due
the Originator have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note.
All Mortgage


A-8

<PAGE>

Interest Rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and
federal law and the terms of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note on the
related Interest Rate Adjustment Date. If, pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage
Note, another index was selected for determining the Mortgage Interest Rate, the
same index was used with respect to each Mortgage Note which required a new
index to be selected, and such selection did not conflict with the terms of the
related Mortgage Note. The Originator executed and delivered any and all notices
required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and
Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Interest Rate and the Monthly Payment
adjustments. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state, federal and
local law has been properly paid and credited;

     (hh) Conversion to Fixed Interest Rate. With respect to Adjustable Rate
Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Loan is not a Convertible Mortgage Loan;

     (ii) No Violation of Environmental Laws. To the best of the Originator's
knowledge, the Mortgaged Property is free from any and all toxic or hazardous
substances and there exists no violation of any local, state or federal
environmental law, rule or regulation. To the best of the Originator's
knowledge, there is no pending action or proceeding directly involving the
Mortgaged Property in which compliance with any environmental law, rule or
regulation is an issue; there is no violation of any environmental law, rule or
regulation with respect to the Mortgage Property; and nothing further remains to
be done to satisfy in full all requirements of each such law, rule or regulation
constituting a prerequisite to use and enjoyment of said property;

     (jj) Servicemembers Civil Relief Act. The Mortgagor has not notified the
Originator, and the Originator has no knowledge of any relief requested or
allowed to the Mortgagor under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act;

     (kk) Appraisal. The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related
Mortgaged Property signed prior to the approval of the Mortgage Loan application
by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by the related originator, who had no
interest, direct or indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on
the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or
disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy
the requirements of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement
Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the
date the Mortgage Loan was originated;

     (ll) Disclosure Materials. The Mortgagor has received all disclosure
materials required by, and the Originator has complied with, all applicable law
with respect to the making of the Mortgage Loans;

     (mm) Construction or Rehabilitation of Mortgaged Property. No Mortgage Loan
was made in connection with the construction or rehabilitation of a Mortgaged
Property or facilitating the trade-in or exchange of a Mortgaged Property;

     (nn) Value of Mortgaged Property. The Originator has no knowledge of any
circumstances existing that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the
value or the marketability of any Mortgaged Property or Mortgage Loan or to
cause the Mortgage Loans to


A-9

<PAGE>

prepay during any period materially faster or slower than similar mortgage loans
originated to the same Underwriting Guidelines held by the Originator generally
secured by properties in the same geographic area as the related Mortgaged
Property;

     (oo) No Defense to Insurance Coverage. The Originator has caused or will
cause to be performed any and all acts required to preserve the rights and
remedies of the Purchaser in any insurance policies applicable to the Mortgage
Loans including, without limitation, any necessary notifications of insurers,
assignments of policies or interests therein, and establishments of coinsured,
joint loss payee and mortgagee rights in favor of the Purchaser. No action has
been taken or failed to be taken, no event has occurred and no state of facts
exists or has existed on or prior to the Closing Date (whether or not known to
the Originator on or prior to such date) which has resulted or will result in an
exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any applicable, special
hazard insurance policy, or bankruptcy bond (including, without limitation, any
exclusions, denials or defenses which would limit or reduce the availability of
the timely payment of the full amount of the loss otherwise due thereunder to
the insured) whether arising out of actions, representations, errors, omissions,
negligence, or fraud of the Originator, the related Mortgagor or any party
involved in the application for such coverage, including the appraisal, plans
and specifications and other exhibits or documents submitted therewith to the
insurer under such insurance policy, or for any other reason under such
coverage, but not including the failure of such insurer to pay by reason of such
insurer's breach of such insurance policy or such insurer's financial inability
to pay;

     (pp) Escrow Analysis. With respect to each Mortgage with an Escrow Account,
the Originator has within the last twelve months (unless such Mortgage was
originated within such twelve month period) analyzed the required Escrow
Payments for each Mortgage and adjusted the amount of such payments so that,
assuming all required payments are timely made, any deficiency will be
eliminated on or before the first anniversary of such analysis, or any overage
will be refunded to the Mortgagor, in accordance with RESPA and any other
applicable law;

     (qq) Prior Servicing. Each Mortgage Loan has been serviced in all material
respects in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the Originator has

acquisition by the holder of the Mortgage of the rights of the lessee upon
foreclosure or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or provide the holder of the
Mortgage with substantially similar protections; (iii) the terms of such lease
do not (A) allow the termination thereof upon the lessee's default without the
holder of the Mortgage being entitled to receive written notice of, and
opportunity to cure, such default, (B) allow the termination of the lease in the
event of damage or destruction as long as the Mortgage is in existence, (C)

     (ss) Prepayment Penalty. The Mortgage Loan is subject to a prepayment
penalty as provided in the related Mortgage Note except as set forth on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule. With respect to each Mortgage Loan that has a prepayment
penalty feature, each such prepayment penalty is enforceable and will be
enforced by the Originator, as servicer of the Mortgage Loan, for the benefit of
the Purchaser, and each prepayment penalty is permitted pursuant to federal,
state and local law. Each such prepayment penalty is in an amount equal to the
maximum amount permitted under applicable law and no such prepayment penalty may
be imposed for a term in excess of three (3) years. With respect to any Mortgage
Loan that contains a provision permitting imposition of a prepayment penalty

borrower agreed to such prepayment penalty in exchange for a monetary benefit,
including but not limited to a rate or fee reduction, (ii) originator has

the borrower in the loan documents pursuant to applicable state and federal law,
and (iv) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, the Servicer

payments;

     (uu) Single-Premium Credit Life Insurance Policy. In connection with the
origination of any Mortgage Loan, no proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were used
to finance or acquire single-premium credit insurance policies. No Mortgagor was

with the origination of the Mortgage Loan;

           APPENDIX E - STANDARD & POOR'S PREDATORY LENDING CATEGORIES

Standard & Poor's has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory lending laws
in the Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based upon a combination
of factors that include (a) the risk exposure associated with the assignee
liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in those laws. Note that
certain loans classified by the relevant statute as Covered are included in
Standard & Poor's High Cost Loan Category because they included thresholds and
tests that are typical of what is generally considered High Cost by the
industry.
