                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT


         Section 11.01 of the Standard Terms provides, inter alia, that the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Company,
the Servicer, and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the
Certificateholders to make provisions with respect to matters or questions
arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or matters arising with
respect to the Trust that are not covered by the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement; provided, that such action shall not affect adversely the interests
of any Certificateholder, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel independent from
the Company, the Servicer and the Trustee or a letter from each Rating Agency
from whom the Company requested a rating of any of the related Certificates
stating that such action will not result in a downgrading of the rating of any
of the related Certificates rated by such Rating Agency at the request of the
Company, as specified in section 11.01 of the Standard Terms.


         All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein are defined in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Article, Section or Subsection references
herein shall mean Article, Section or Subsections of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein.
