    on such Reset Date.

    (b) If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750 or Bloomberg

    such date to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period of one month
    commencing on that Reset Date. The Servicer will request the principal London office of
    each of the Reference Banks to provide such a quotation. If, on any Reset Date:
    (i) at least two Reference Banks provide quotations when requested, the LIBOR Rate
    for such Reset Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations so received; or

    Reset Date for loans to leading European banks in U.S. Dollars for a period of one month
    commencing on that Reset Date.

    (c) If, on any Reset Date, the LIBOR Rate cannot be calculated pursuant
    to one of the above methods, the LIBOR Rate for such Reset Date shall be the rate as most
    recently determinable under such methods.

  




                   
"Maximum Interest Rate": A per annum rate for the Class A-R Certificates that is
derived from its pro rata share of the Series Percentage of interest due on the Loans less

"Maximum Series Amount": $30,000,045, allocated to each Class of
Certificates in this Series as follows (or as otherwise adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof):



  
    
      
        Class A-R = $20,950,000

Outstanding Principal Amount of all Class A-R, B-R and C-R Certificates in this Series
during such Accrual Period.


                   
"Revolving Funding Date": Any Funding Date on which the Depositor obtains a

premium or penalty, principal on any Outstanding Class of 98-1 Revolving Certificates on a

Certificates, with such net proceeds being used to prepay all 98-1 Revolving Certificates

Revolving Certificates shall be permitted unless all Rated Certificates are prepaid in

and (iii) such adjustments shall be reflected on a Revolving Funding Schedule as described
on clause (b) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Maximum Series Amounts and Minimum
Funding Amounts shall not be increased without the consent of the Holders of Certificates
in the relevant Class, and the Certificateholder Agent shall use its best efforts to
obtain any required approvals. 


                   
(b) As of the Delivery Date, the Revolving Funding Schedule is as set forth on Schedule B
hereto. Thereafter, a revised Revolving Funding Schedule shall be included with each
Funding Report delivered in connection with a Funding Date. In addition, upon any
prepayment in accordance with clause (a) above, a revised Revolving Funding Schedule shall
be provided by the Depositor to the Rating Agency and the Certificateholder Agent. Each
such revised Revolving Funding Schedule shall, as appropriate, specify (i) the dollar
amount that each Class of this Series shall fund in connection with the related Funding or
(ii) the adjusted Maximum Series Amount and Minimum Funding Amount for each Class of
Certificates in this Series.


                   
(c) In addition, on any Funding Date: (i) the Class D-R Certificates may be prepaid,
without premium or penalty, in the amount of any Excess Funding Amount being funded on
such date by the Holders 


6


of Rated Certificates; and (ii) the Maximum Series Amount for the Class
D-R Certificates shall be increased if required by the Rating Agency to maintain the
rating of any Certificates of this Series in connection with a specific Funding that
involves Loans that are permitted to deviate from the Program Guidelines or the Pool
Criteria.


                   
(d) The parties agree that the aggregate amount of each Funding under a Term Series shall
be at least $15,000,000.

Notwithstanding the definition of Certificate Interest Rate set forth above, if any
Class A-R, Class B-R or Class C-R Certificate in this Series is not repaid by
its Scheduled Maturity, then, for any Accrual Period commencing on or after such Scheduled
Maturity, the Certificate Interest Rate on such Certificate shall be increased by 1.00%.



Section 6. Limitation of Transfer and Exchange of Class D-R
Certificates.



                   
So long as any Rated Certificates are Outstanding, the Depositor shall maintain legal and
beneficial ownership of at least 51% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the
Class D-R Certificates, unless otherwise agreed to by the Controlling Holders.



Section 7. Reserve Account Deposit.



                   
On or prior to the initial Funding Date for this Series, the Depositor shall deposit
$250,000 into the Reserve Account for investment and disbursement in accordance with
Section 5.03 of the Trust Agreement.



Section 8. Minimum Denominations



                   
The Certificates of this Series shall be issuable in minimum denominations greater than
$100,000 which denominations shall be, in the case of the Class A-R Certificates, integral
multiples of $500, in the case of the Class B-R and Class C-R Certificates, integral
multiples of $105, and in the case of the Class D-R Certificates, integral multiples of
$100. 



Section 9. Legal Opinion.



                   
It shall be a condition to any Funding under this Series after September 10, 1999 that
prior to such Funding there shall have been delivered to the Trustee and each Holder of
Rated Certificates a legal opinion of counsel to the Company, the Depositor and the
Servicer, inform and substance satisfactory to such Holders, with respect to this
Supplement and such related matters as such Holders may reasonably request.



Section 10. General Provisions.



                   
The amendments to the original Supplement dated as of August 1, 1998 made pursuant to this
Amended and Restated Supplement shall be effective as of the Effective Date. Upon
execution and delivery of this Supplement, the Depositor shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate amended 98-1 Revolving Certificates which shall be delivered by the
Trustee to each Holder of a 98-1 Revolving Certificate in exchange for its existing 98-1

As amended and supplemented by this Supplement, the Trust Agreement is in all respects
ratified and confirmed and the Trust Agreement as so supplemented shall be read, taken and

contained herein shall conflict with or be inconsistent with any term or provision

regard to the conflict of laws provisions of any State.


                   
This Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed
shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but
one and the same instrument.

Trust Company, as Trustee (the "Trustee"), and Point West Capital Corporation,
as Servicer, and the Amended and Restated Supplement to Trust Agreement for Revolving

Supplement to Trust Agreement for Revolving Series 1998-1, dated as of August 1, 1998),
among the Depositor, the Trustee and Point West Capital Corporation, as Servicer
(collectively, the "Trust Agreement"). Reference is made to the Trust Agreement
for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Certificates, and the terms upon which the Certificates are, and are to be,

term used herein has the meaning assigned to it in the Trust Agreement.


                   
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as the
Amended and Restated Class A-R Revolving Certificates, Series 1998-1 having a
scheduled maturity of April 17, 2000 and a Series Termination Date of July 15, 2019
(herein called the "Class A-R Certificates") issued and to be issued under
the Trust Agreement. This Class A-R Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the
holder of this Class A-R Certificate by virtue of such Holder's acceptance hereof
assents and by which such Holder is bound.


                   
The Holder of this Certificate is obligated to provide funds to the Depositor on each
Funding Date during the Funding Period subject to the applicable terms and conditions set
forth in the Transaction Documents. The Fundings made by the Holder of this Certificate to
the Depositor shall be evidenced by this Certificate and the Certificateholder shall
endorse on the schedule annexed hereto and made a part hereof, or elsewhere in its
internal records, the date and amount of each Funding made by it to the Depositor and the
amount of each payment of principal made by the Depositor with respect thereto. The
Certificateholder is authorized and directed by the Depositor to endorse the schedule
attached hereto or maintain such records; provided that each Certificateholder's
endorsements or records shall be effective only if they are in agreement with the register
maintained by the Trustee, absent manifest error in such register. The failure of the
Certificateholder to make, or an error in making, a notation with respect to any Funding
shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Depositor hereunder or under
the Trust Agreement. The aggregate amount of all Fundings required to be made by the
Holder of this Certificate, shall be as set forth in the Revolving Funding Schedule. 


                   
This Class A-R Certificate bears interest during each Accrual Period on the
Outstanding Principal Amount hereof (as of the first day of the Accrual Period) at the
Certificate Interest Rate, until and including the last day preceding the Payment Date on
which the Outstanding Principal Amount hereof has been reduced to zero. Interest on the
Outstanding Principal Amount hereof shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of 12 months of 30 days each. Interest shall be due and payable in arrears on
each Payment Date. In addition, with respect to any Funding by the Class A-R Certificates
of this Series occurring in any Accrual Period following the preceding Payment Date, the
related Funding Amounts shall accrue interest from the related Funding Date through the
end of the Accrual Period in which such Funding occurs in the amount of the applicable
First Period Interest, which interest shall be paid on the next Payment Date. The First
Period Interest on the Funding Amount shall be determined on the Funding Date at the rate
established on the applicable Reset Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Outstanding Principal Amount of this 


A-2


Certificate is not paid in full by its Scheduled Maturity, then, for
any Accrual Period commencing on or after such Scheduled Maturity, the Floating Rate
Spread on this Certificate shall be increased by 1.00%. In making any interest payment, if
the interest calculation with respect to a Certificate shall result in a portion of such
payment being less than $0.01, then such payment shall be decreased to the nearest whole
cent, and no subsequent adjustment shall be made in respect thereof.


                   
The principal of this Class A-R Certificate shall be payable in installments ending
no later than the Series Termination Date unless this Class A-R Certificate becomes
due and payable at an earlier date by call for redemption or otherwise. All reductions in
the principal amount of a Class A-R Certificate effected by payments of installments
of principal made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of this
Class A-R Certificate and of any Class A-R Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not
such payment is noted on this Class A-R Certificate. Each installment of principal
payable on this Class A-R Certificate shall be in an amount equal to this
Certificateholder's pro rata share of the Class A-R Principal Distribution
Amount available to be paid in accordance with the priorities of Section 3 of the
Supplement for this Series and Section 5.02 of the Trust Agreement. Subject to the terms
of the Trust Agreement, the principal payable on this Class A-R Certificate shall be
paid on each Payment Date during the term of the Trust Agreement, beginning on the Initial
Payment Date. All payments of principal with respect to all of the Class A-R
Certificates of a Series shall be made on a pro rata basis based upon the ratio that the
Outstanding Principal Amount of a Class A-R Certificate bears to the Outstanding
Principal Amount of all Class A-R Certificates of such Series; provided that,
if as a result of such proration a portion of such principal would be less than $0.01,
then such payment shall be reduced to the nearest whole cent. 


                   
In addition, the Certificate Prepayment Fee Amount, if any, shall be distributed on each
Payment Date to the Holders of the Class A-R Certificates to the extent such Class is
receiving a distribution of Prepaid Principal Amount on such date. All payments of
Certificate Prepayment Fee Amounts with respect to the Class A-R Certificates shall be
made prorata based upon the ratio of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Certificate
to the Outstanding Principal Amount of Class A-R Certificates of this Series, provided
that if as a result of such proration, a portion of such payment would be less than $0.01,
then such payment shall be reduce to the nearest whole cent. 


                   
The interest and principal so payable on any Payment Date will, as provided in the Trust
Agreement, be paid to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the
Record Date for such Payment Date, which shall be the close of business on the last day of
the month prior to such Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day). The principal and
interest on this Certificate are payable by wire transfer in immediately available funds
to the account specified in writing to the Trustee by the Person whose name appears as the
Registered Holder of this Certificate on the Certificate Register received at least five
(5) Business Days prior to the Record Date for the Payment Date (or if no such account is
specified or if such wire fails, by check mailed by first-class mail to the Person whose
name appears as the Registered Holder of this Certificate on the Certificate Register at
the address of such Person as it appears on the Certificate Register), in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts. Funds represented by checks returned undelivered will
be held for payment to the Person entitled thereto, subject to the terms of the Trust
Agreement, at the office or agency in the United States of America designated as such by
the Depositor for such purpose pursuant to the Trust Agreement.


                   
The Depositor has structured the Trust Agreement and the Certificates with the intention
that the Trust be treated as a partnership, with the assets of the partnership including
all of the assets of the Trust Estate and the partners of the partnership being all of the
Certificateholders and the Depositor. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer and each
Certificateholder, by acceptance of its Certificate (and any 


A-3


Person that is a beneficial owner of any interest in a Certificate, by
virtue of such Person's acquisition of a beneficial interest therein), agree to report the
transactions contemplated thereby in accordance with such stated intentions unless and
until determined to the contrary by an applicable taxing authority.

all other Series of Class A-R Certificates issued under the Trust Agreement are

equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or distinction between any Class A-R
Certificate by reason of time of issue or otherwise. The Class A-R Certificates are
payable only out of the Trust Estate and do not represent recourse obligations of the
Depositor, Allegiance Capital, LLC or any of their respective affiliates or successors.
The Trust Agreement pursuant to which this Class A-R Certificate is issued also
provides for the issuance of other Classes and Series of Certificates from time to time.
Payments of interest on the Class A-R Certificates are senior to such payments on
other Classes having a lower credit rating from the Rating Agency and are subordinate to
payments of interest on any Classes having a higher credit rating form the Rating Agency.
Payments of principal in the Class A-R Certificates are senior to payments of principal on
other classes having a lower credit rating from the Rating Agency and are subordinate to
such payments on any Class having a higher credit rating from the Rating Agency. 


                   
Unless the Depositor exercises its Optional Termination rights, the Certificates are
payable only at the time and in the manner provided in the Trust Agreement and are not
redeemable or prepayable at the option of the Depositor before such time, except that the
Depositor may cause the Trust to prepay on a dollar for dollar basis the principal,
without penalty or premium, of any Outstanding Series of Revolving Certificates with the
proceeds of the issuance of a Series of Term Certificates.


                   
As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the transfer of this Certificate may be registered on the Certificate Register of the
Depositor upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or
agency of the Depositor in the United States of America maintained for such purpose, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee and duly executed by the holder hereof or
his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Class A-R
Certificates of the same Scheduled Maturity of authorized denominations and for the same
initial aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferees.


                   
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Certificate, the Depositor,
the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor or the Trustee shall treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving
payment as herein provided and for all other purposes whether or not this Certificate be
overdue, and neither the Depositor, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

year and one day after it has been paid hereunder, it or any Affiliate thereof will not
file any involuntary petition or otherwise institute any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceeding under any federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law against the Depositor.


                   
The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment
thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor and the rights
of the Holders of the Certificates under the Trust Agreement at any time by the Depositor,
the Trustee and the Servicer without the consent of the Holders of the Certificates.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as the
Amended and Restated Class B-R Revolving Certificates, Series 1998-1 having a

endorsements or records shall be effective only if they are in agreement with the register
maintained by the Trustee, absent manifest error in such register. The failure of the

Holder of this Certificate, shall be as set forth in the Revolving Funding Schedule.

Certificate Interest Rate, until and including the last day preceding the Payment Date on
which the Outstanding Principal Amount hereof has been reduced to zero. Interest on the
Outstanding Principal Amount hereof shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of 12 months of 30 days each. Interest shall be due and payable in arrears on

Class B-R Certificate and of any Class B-R Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not
such payment is noted on this Class B-R Certificate. Each installment of principal

Certificateholder's pro rata share of the Class B-R Principal Distribution
Amount available to be paid in accordance with the priorities of Section 3 of the
Supplement for this Series and Section 5.02 of the Trust Agreement. Subject to the terms
of the Trust Agreement, the principal payable on this Class B-R Certificate shall be

Certificates of a Series shall be made on a pro rata basis based upon the ratio that the
Outstanding Principal Amount of a Class B-R Certificate bears to the Outstanding
Principal Amount of all Class B-R Certificates of such Series; provided that,

currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for

be held for payment to the Person entitled thereto, subject to the terms of the Trust
Agreement, at the office or agency in the United States of America designated as such by

THIS CERTIFIES THAT the registered owner specified above is the owner of a(n) __________
DOLLAR AND NO CENTS ($__________) nonassessable, fully paid, undivided fractional interest
in the Allegiance Capital Trust I (the "Trust") formed by Allegiance
Funding Corp. I (the "Depositor"). The Trust was created pursuant to the Trust
Agreement, dated as of August 1, 1998, among the Depositor, Manufacturers and Traders
Trust Company, as Trustee (the "Trustee"), and Point West Capital Corporation,
as Servicer, and the Amended and Restated Supplement to Trust Agreement for Revolving
Series 1998-1, dated as of September 1, 1999 (amending and restating the original
Supplement to Trust Agreement for Revolving Series 1998-1, dated as of August 1, 1998),
among the Depositor, the Trustee and Point West Capital Corporation, as Servicer
(collectively, the "Trust Agreement"). Reference is made to the Trust Agreement
for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Certificates, and the terms upon which the Certificates are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, each capitalized
term used herein has the meaning assigned to it in the Trust Agreement.


                   
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as the
Amended and Restated Class C-R Revolving Certificates, Series 1998-1 having a
scheduled maturity of April 17, 2000 and a Series Termination Date of July 15, 2019
(herein called the "Class C-R Certificates") issued and to be issued under
the Trust Agreement. This Class C-R Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the
holder of this Class C-R Certificate by virtue of such Holder's acceptance hereof
assents and by which such Holder is bound.


                   
The Holder of this Certificate is obligated to provide funds to the Depositor on each
Funding Date during the Funding Period subject to the applicable terms and conditions set
forth in the Transaction Documents. The Fundings made by the Holder of this Certificate to
the Depositor shall be evidenced by this Certificate and the Certificateholder shall
endorse on the schedule annexed hereto and made a part hereof, or elsewhere in its
internal records, the date and amount of each Funding made by it to the Depositor and the
amount of each payment of principal made by the Depositor with respect thereto. The
Certificateholder is authorized and directed by the Depositor to endorse the schedule
attached hereto or maintain such records; provided that each Certificateholder's
endorsements or records shall be effective only if they are in agreement with the register
maintained by the Trustee, absent manifest error in such register. The failure of the
Certificateholder to make, or an error in making, a notation with respect to any Funding
shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Depositor hereunder or under
the Trust Agreement. The aggregate amount of all Fundings required to be made by the
Holder of this Certificate, shall be as set forth in the Revolving Funding Schedule. 


                   
This Class C-R Certificate bears interest during each Accrual Period on the
Outstanding Principal Amount hereof (as of the first day of the Accrual Period) at the
Certificate Interest Rate, until and including the last day preceding the Payment Date on
which the Outstanding Principal Amount hereof has been reduced to zero. Interest on the
Outstanding Principal Amount hereof shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of 12 months of 30 days each. Interest shall be due and payable in arrears on
each Payment Date. In addition, with respect to any Funding by the Class C-R Certificates
of this Series occurring in any Accrual Period following the preceding Payment Date, the
related Funding Amounts shall accrue interest from the related Funding Date through the
end of the Accrual Period in which such Funding occurs in the amount of the applicable
First Period Interest, which interest shall be paid on the next Payment Date. The First
Period Interest on the Funding Amount shall be determined on the Funding Date at the rate
established on the applicable Reset Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Outstanding Principal Amount of this 


C-2


Certificate is not paid in full by its Scheduled Maturity, then, for
any Accrual Period commencing on or after such Scheduled Maturity, the Floating Rate
Spread on this Certificate shall be increased by 1.00%. In making any interest payment, if
the interest calculation with respect to a Certificate shall result in a portion of such
payment being less than $0.01, then such payment shall be decreased to the nearest whole
cent, and no subsequent adjustment shall be made in respect thereof.


                   
The principal of this Class C-R Certificate shall be payable in installments ending
no later than the Series Termination Date unless this Class C-R Certificate becomes
due and payable at an earlier date by call for redemption or otherwise. All reductions in
the principal amount of a Class C-R Certificate effected by payments of installments
of principal made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of this
Class C-R Certificate and of any Class C-R Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not
such payment is noted on this Class C-R Certificate. Each installment of principal
payable on this Class C-R Certificate shall be in an amount equal to this
Certificateholder's pro rata share of the Class C-R Principal Distribution
Amount available to be paid in accordance with the priorities of Section 3 of the
Supplement for this Series and Section 5.02 of the Trust Agreement. Subject to the terms
of the Trust Agreement, the principal payable on this Class C-R Certificate shall be
paid on each Payment Date during the term of the Trust Agreement, beginning on the Initial
Payment Date. All payments of principal with respect to all of the Class C-R
Certificates of a Series shall be made on a pro rata basis based upon the ratio that the
Outstanding Principal Amount of a Class C-R Certificate bears to the Outstanding
Principal Amount of all Class C-R Certificates of such Series; provided that,
if as a result of such proration a portion of such principal would be less than $0.01,
then such payment shall be reduced to the nearest whole cent. 


                   
In addition, the Certificate Prepayment Fee Amount, if any, shall be distributed on each
Payment Date to the Holders of the Class C-R Certificates to the extent such Class is
receiving a distribution of Prepaid Principal Amount on such date. All payments of
Certificate Prepayment Fee Amounts with respect to the Class C-R Certificates shall be
made prorata based upon the ratio of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Certificate
to the Outstanding Principal Amount of Class C-R Certificates of this Series, provided
that if as a result of such proration, a portion of such payment would be less than $0.01,
then such payment shall be reduce to the nearest whole cent. 


                   
The interest and principal so payable on any Payment Date will, as provided in the Trust
Agreement, be paid to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the
Record Date for such Payment Date, which shall be the close of business on the last day of
the month prior to such Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day). The principal and
interest on this Certificate are payable by wire transfer in immediately available funds
to the account specified in writing to the Trustee by the Person whose name appears as the
Registered Holder of this Certificate on the Certificate Register received at least five
(5) Business Days prior to the Record Date for the Payment Date (or if no such account is
specified or if such wire fails, by check mailed by first-class mail to the Person whose
name appears as the Registered Holder of this Certificate on the Certificate Register at
the address of such Person as it appears on the Certificate Register), in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts. Funds represented by checks returned undelivered will
be held for payment to the Person entitled thereto, subject to the terms of the Trust
Agreement, at the office or agency in the United States of America designated as such by
the Depositor for such purpose pursuant to the Trust Agreement.


                   
The Depositor has structured the Trust Agreement and the Certificates with the intention
that the Trust be treated as a partnership, with the assets of the partnership including
all of the assets of the Trust Estate and the partners of the partnership being all of the
Certificateholders and the Depositor. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer and each
Certificateholder, by acceptance of its Certificate (and any 


C-3


Person that is a beneficial owner of any interest in a Certificate, by
virtue of such Person's acquisition of a beneficial interest therein), agree to report the
transactions contemplated thereby in accordance with such stated intentions unless and
until determined to the contrary by an applicable taxing authority.

all other Series of Class C-R Certificates issued under the Trust Agreement are

equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or distinction between any Class C-R
Certificate by reason of time of issue or otherwise. The Class C-R Certificates are
payable only out of the Trust Estate and do not represent recourse obligations of the
Depositor, Allegiance Capital, LLC or any of their respective affiliates or successors.
The Trust Agreement pursuant to which this Class C-R Certificate is issued also
provides for the issuance of other Classes and Series of Certificates from time to time.
Payments of interest on the Class C-R Certificates are senior to such payments on
other Classes having a lower credit rating from the Rating Agency and are subordinate to
payments of interest on any Classes having a higher credit rating form the Rating Agency.
Payments of principal in the Class C-R Certificates are senior to payments of principal on
other classes having a lower credit rating from the Rating Agency and are subordinate to
such payments on any Class having a higher credit rating from the Rating Agency. 


                   
Unless the Depositor exercises its Optional Termination rights, the Certificates are
payable only at the time and in the manner provided in the Trust Agreement and are not
redeemable or prepayable at the option of the Depositor before such time, except that the
Depositor may cause the Trust to prepay on a dollar for dollar basis the principal,
without penalty or premium, of any Outstanding Series of Revolving Certificates with the
proceeds of the issuance of a Series of Term Certificates.


                   
As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the transfer of this Certificate may be registered on the Certificate Register of the
Depositor upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or
agency of the Depositor in the United States of America maintained for such purpose, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee and duly executed by the holder hereof or
his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Class C-R
Certificates having the same Scheduled Maturity, Series Termination Date authorized
denomination(s) and for the same initial aggregate principal amount will be issued to the
designated transferees.


                   
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Certificate, the Depositor,
the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor or the Trustee shall treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving
payment as herein provided and for all other purposes whether or not this Certificate be
overdue, and neither the Depositor, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.


                   
The Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that for one
year and one day after it has been paid hereunder, it or any Affiliate thereof will not
file any involuntary petition or otherwise institute any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceeding under any federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law against the Depositor.


                   
The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment
thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor and the rights
of the Holders of the Certificates under the Trust Agreement at any time by the Depositor,
the Trustee and the Servicer without the consent of the Holders of the Certificates.
