any document submitted for recordation or a copy of such document certified by
the appropriate public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the

the Servicer shall continue to use its best efforts to effect delivery as soon
as possible thereafter.

        From time to time the Servicer may have a need for Mortgage Loan
Documents to be released by the Custodian. If the Servicer shall require any of

        The Servicer shall maintain at all times an internal quality control
program that verifies, on a regular basis, the existence and accuracy of the
legal documents, credit documents, property appraisals, and underwriting
decisions. The program must be capable of evaluating and monitoring the overall
quality of its servicing activities. The purpose of the program is to ensure

                                       -10-

that the Mortgage Loans are serviced in accordance with prudent mortgage banking
practices and accounting principles; guard against dishonest, fraudulent, or
negligent acts; and guard against errors and omissions by officers, employees,
or other authorized persons.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                 ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

        Section 4.01    SERVICER TO ACT AS SERVICER.

        The Servicer, as independent contract servicer, shall service and
administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and with
Accepted Servicing Practices, and shall have full power and authority, acting
alone, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such
servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable
and consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing
Practices and shall exercise the same care that it customarily employs for its
own account. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Servicer shall service
the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, which
include, but are not limited to, provisions regarding the liquidation of
Mortgage Loans, the collection of Mortgage Loan payments, the payment of taxes,
insurance and other charges, the maintenance of hazard insurance with a
Qualified Insurer, the maintenance of fidelity bond and errors and omissions
insurance, inspections, the restoration of Mortgaged Property, insurance claims,
and title insurance, management of REO Property, permitted withdrawals with
respect to REO Property, liquidation reports, and reports of foreclosures and
abandonments of Mortgaged Property, the transfer of Mortgaged Property, the
release of Mortgage Loan Documents, annual statements, and examination of
records and facilities. In the event of any conflict, inconsistency or
discrepancy between any of the servicing provisions of this Agreement and
Accepted Servicing Practices, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and
be binding upon the Borrowers and the Servicer. The Borrowers may, upon the
written consent of the Agent, deliver powers-of-attorney to the Servicer
sufficient to allow the Servicer as servicer to execute all documentation
requiring execution on behalf of Borrowers with respect to the servicing of the
Mortgage Loans, including satisfactions, partial releases, modifications and
foreclosure documentation or, in the alternative, shall as promptly as
reasonably possible, execute and return such documentation to the Servicer.

        Consistent with the terms of this Agreement and Accepted Servicing
Practices, the Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan
or consent to the postponement of any such term or in any manner grant
indulgence to any Mortgagor but only if (i) in the Servicer's reasonable and
prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is
not materially adverse to the applicable Borrower and (ii) the Servicer has
obtained the prior written consent of the Administrative Borrower and Agent.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon receipt of a Principal
Prepayment in full and deposit of same in the Mortgage Collection Account, the
Servicer shall continue, and is

                                       -13-
<PAGE>

hereby authorized and empowered, to prepare, execute and deliver, all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release,
discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage
Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and Accepted Servicing Practices.

        The Servicer shall perform all of its servicing responsibilities
hereunder or may, with the Administrative Borrower's, the Backup Servicer's and
Agent's prior written approval, cause a subservicer (other than the
Administrative Borrower or HAC, which may act as subservicer without such prior
written approval) to perform any such servicing responsibilities on its behalf
pursuant to a written subservicing agreement approved in writing by, and
assigned to, the Agent, but the use by the Servicer of a subservicer shall not
release the Servicer from any of its obligations hereunder and the Servicer
shall remain responsible hereunder for all acts and omissions of each
subservicer as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the Servicer.
Any such subservicer that the Administrative Borrower and Agent shall approve
shall agree in writing to conform to the Accepted Servicing Practices. The
Servicer shall pay all fees and expenses of each subservicer from its own funds,
and a subservicer's fee shall not exceed the Servicing Fee.

        At the cost and expense of the Servicer, without any right of
reimbursement from the Mortgage Collection Account, the Servicer shall be
entitled to terminate the rights and responsibilities of a subservicer and
arrange, with the Administrative Borrower's, the Backup Servicer's and Agent's
prior written approval, for any servicing responsibilities to be performed by a
successor subservicer meeting the requirements in the preceding paragraph,
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent or
prohibit the Servicer, at the Servicer's option, from electing to service the
related Mortgage Loans itself. In the event that the Servicer's responsibilities
and duties under this Agreement are terminated pursuant to SECTIONS 8.04, 9.01
OR 10.02, and if requested to do so in writing by the Administrative Borrower,
the Backup Servicer and the Agent, the Servicer shall at its own cost and
expense terminate the rights and responsibilities of each subservicer effective
as of the date of termination of the Servicer. The Servicer shall pay all fees,
expenses or penalties necessary in order to terminate the rights and
responsibilities of each subservicer from the Servicer's own funds without
reimbursement from the Borrowers or Agent.

        Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to
agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a subservicer or any
reference herein to actions taken through a subservicer or otherwise, the
Servicer shall not be relieved of its obligations to the Borrowers and Agent and
the Backup Servicer and shall be obligated to the same extent and under the same
terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the
Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with a
subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by the subservicer and nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such
indemnification.

        Any subservicing agreement and any other transactions or services
relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a subservicer shall be deemed to be
between such subservicer and Servicer alone, and the Borrowers shall have no
obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to such subservicer including no
obligation, duty or liability of Borrowers to pay such subservicer's fees and
expenses. For purposes of distributions by the Servicer pursuant to this
Agreement, the

                                       -14-
<PAGE>

Servicer shall be deemed to have received a payment on a Mortgage Loan when a
subservicer has received such payment.

        Section 4.02    COLLECTION OF MORTGAGE LOAN PAYMENTS.

        Continuously from the Effective Date until the date each Mortgage Loan
ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the Servicer will proceed with
reasonable diligence to collect all payments due under each Mortgage Loan when
the same shall become due and payable and shall, to the extent such procedures
shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of related
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, follow such collection procedures as
it follows with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and
held for its own account and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.
Further, the Servicer will take reasonable care in ascertaining and estimating
annual ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, fire and hazard insurance
premiums, mortgage insurance premiums, and all other charges that, as provided
in the Mortgage, will become due and payable to the end that the installments
payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when
they become due and payable.

        Section 4.03    REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED MORTGAGE LOANS.

        The Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts, consistent with Accepted
Servicing Practices, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the
ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and
continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for
collection of delinquent payments pursuant to SECTION 4.01. The Servicer shall
use its reasonable efforts to realize upon defaulted Mortgage Loans in such
manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the applicable
Borrower and the Secured Parties, taking into account, among other things, the
timing of foreclosure proceedings. The foregoing is subject to the provisions
that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the
Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of
such property unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such
restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage
Loan to the applicable Borrower and the Secured Parties after reimbursement to
itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable by the
Servicer through Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds from the related
Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in SECTION 4.05. The Servicer shall notify
the Administrative Borrower and Agent in writing of the commencement of
foreclosure proceedings. The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and
expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings or functions as Servicing
Advances; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor
from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in SECTION 4.05.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in connection with a
foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the
Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is
contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the
Administrative Borrower or Agent otherwise requests an environmental inspection
or review of such Mortgaged Property, such an inspection or review is to be
conducted by a qualified inspector. Upon completion of the inspection, the
Servicer shall promptly provide the Administrative Borrower and Agent with a
written report of the environmental inspection. After reviewing the
environmental inspection report, the

                                       -15-
<PAGE>

Administrative Borrower, after receipt of written consent of the Agent, and
Agent shall determine how the Servicer shall proceed with respect to the
Mortgaged Property.

        Section 4.04    ESTABLISHMENT OF MORTGAGE COLLECTION ACCOUNTS; DEPOSITS
                        IN MORTGAGE COLLECTION ACCOUNTS.

        The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to each Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own funds and
general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Mortgage Collection
Accounts. Each Mortgage Collection Account shall be established with a Qualified
Depository. Funds deposited in the Mortgage Collection Account may be drawn on
only by the Agent in accordance with SECTION 4.05; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in the
event the Backup Servicer becomes the successor Servicer hereunder, the Backup
Servicer may cause to be made withdrawals from the Mortgage Collection Account
in accordance with SECTION 4.05. The creation of any Mortgage Collection Account
shall be evidenced by a Deposit Account Control Agreement in the form shown in
EXHIBIT A hereto. The original of such Deposit Account Control Agreement shall
be delivered to the Administrative Borrower and Agent upon request. In the event
the Backup Servicer becomes the successor Servicer hereunder, it shall have the
right to transfer the Mortgage Collection Account to a Qualified Depository of
its choosing; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that it shall give notice to the Administrative
Borrower and Agent of any proposed change of the location of the Mortgage
Collection Account prior to any change thereof.

        The Servicer shall deposit in the Mortgage Collection Account(s) no
later than one (1) Business Day after receipt and retain therein the following
payments and collections:

                (i)     all payments on account of principal and interest,
including Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;

                (ii)    all Liquidation Proceeds and REO Disposition Proceeds;

                (iii)   any net amounts received by the Servicer in connection
with any REO Property pursuant to SECTION 4.11;

                (iv)    all Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be
deposited pursuant to SECTIONS 4.08 AND 4.10, other than proceeds to be held in
the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged
Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal
servicing procedures, the loan documents or applicable law;

                (v)     all Condemnation Proceeds affecting any Mortgaged
Property other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow Account and applied to the
restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in
accordance with the Servicer's normal servicing procedures, the loan documents
or applicable law; and

                (vi)    any amounts required to be deposited in the Mortgage
Collection Account pursuant to SECTION 6.02.

                                       -16-
<PAGE>

        The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Mortgage Collection
Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment
charges and assumption fees, to the extent permitted by SECTION 6.01, need not
be deposited by the Servicer in the Mortgage Collection Account. Any interest
paid on funds deposited in the Mortgage Collection Account by the Qualified
Depository shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer and the Servicer shall be
entitled to be paid the amount of such interest from the Mortgage Collection
Account pursuant to SECTION 4.05(iii).

                Section 4.05    PERMITTED WITHDRAWALS FROM THE MORTGAGE
                                COLLECTION ACCOUNT.

        The Agent, or in the event the Backup Servicer becomes the successor
Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer, may, from time to time, cause to be
made withdrawals from the Mortgage Collection Account for the following
purposes:

                (i)     to make payments in the amounts and in the manner
provided for in SECTION 5.01;

                (ii)    to reimburse Servicer for unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, the Servicer's right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause
(ii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to excess Liquidation
Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds (after application of all
such amounts to principal, interest on late fees on the related Mortgage Loan)
related to such Mortgage Loan. The Servicer will provide the Administrative
Borrower and Agent with copies of invoices, bills and other documentation
relating to Servicing Advances that are to be reimbursed from the Mortgage
Collection Account, in a form that would permit the Borrowers or Agent to fully
recover any amounts due pursuant to any insurance policies. In no instance shall
Servicing Advances related to a Mortgage Loan be reimbursed from payments or
proceeds of any other Mortgage Loan;

                (iii)   to pay the Servicer any interest earned on the balance
in the Mortgage Collection Account;

                (iv)    only if the Servicer is the Back-up Servicer, to
reimburse the Servicer for any Nonrecoverable Advances made by it;

                (v)     to transfer funds to another Qualified Depository in
accordance with SECTION 4.09 hereof;

                (vi)    to remove funds inadvertently placed in the Mortgage
Collection Account in error by the Servicer; and

                (vii)   to clear and terminate the Mortgage Collection Account
upon the termination of this Agreement.

                Section 4.06    ESTABLISHMENT OF ESCROW ACCOUNTS; DEPOSITS IN
                                ESCROW ACCOUNTS.

                                       -17-

<PAGE>

        The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to each Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate and
apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and
maintain one or more Escrow Accounts. Each Escrow Account shall be established
with a Qualified Depository. Funds deposited in an Escrow Account may be drawn
on by the Servicer in accordance with SECTION 4.07. The creation of any Escrow
Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form shown in EXHIBIT B.
The original of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Administrative
Borrower, the Backup Servicer and Agent upon request.

        The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts on a daily
basis and retain therein:

                (i)     all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage
Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely payment of any items as are required
under the terms of this Agreement;

                (ii)    all Insurance Proceeds which are to be applied to the
restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property; and

                (iii)   all Servicing Advances for Mortgagors whose Escrow
Payments are insufficient to cover escrow disbursements.

        The Servicer shall make withdrawals from an Escrow Account only to
effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other
purposes as shall be as set forth in and in accordance with SECTION 4.07. The
Servicer shall be entitled to retain or be paid any interest paid on funds
deposited in an Escrow Account by the Qualified Depository other than interest
on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor and, to the extent
required by law, the Servicer shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the
Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account is non-interest bearing or
that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.

        Section         4.07 PERMITTED WITHDRAWALS FROM ESCROW ACCOUNT.

        Withdrawals from the Escrow Account may be made by the Servicer only:

                (i)     to effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes,
assessments, water rates, fire and hazard insurance premiums, Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, and comparable items;

                (ii)    to reimburse Servicer for any Servicing Advance made by
Servicer with respect to a related Mortgage Loan but only from amounts received
on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late payments or collections of
Escrow Payments thereunder;

                (iii)   to refund to the Mortgagor any funds as may be
determined to be overages;

                                       -18-
<PAGE>

                (iv)    for transfer to the Mortgage Collection Account in
connection with an acquisition of REO Property;

                (v)     for application to restoration or repair of the
Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan to the extent that the applicable
Escrow Payments relate to such Mortgage Loan;

                (vi)    to pay to the Servicer, or to the Mortgagor to the
extent required by law, any interest paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow
Account;

                (vii)   to pay to the Mortgagors or other parties Insurance
Proceeds deposited in accordance with SECTION 4.06;

                (viii)  to remove funds inadvertently placed in an Escrow
Account in error by the Servicer; and

                (ix)    to clear and terminate the Escrow Account on the
termination of this Agreement.

        As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer shall pay to the
Mortgagors interest on funds in an Escrow Account, to the extent required by
law, and to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Escrow Account is
insufficient, shall pay such interest from its own funds, without any
reimbursement therefor.

        Section         4.08 PAYMENT OF TAXES, INSURANCE AND OTHER CHARGES;
                        COLLECTIONS THEREUNDER.

        With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain accurate
records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates
and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and
the status of fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to
time, all bills for the payment of such charges, including renewal premiums and
shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date
and at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing
for such purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall
have been estimated and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for
such purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage or applicable law. To
the extent that the Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer
shall determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time
they first become due. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the timely
payment of all such bills and shall effect timely payments of all such bills
irrespective of the Mortgagor's faithful performance in the payment of same or
the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to
effect such payments.

        Section 4.09    MAINTENANCE OF HAZARD INSURANCE.

        The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire
and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is customary in the area where
the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is equal to the lesser of
(i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan
or (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal

                                       -19-
<PAGE>

balance of the Mortgage Loan, and the percentage such that the proceeds thereof
shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or the Mortgagee from becoming
a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal
Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as being a special flood
hazard area that has federally-mandated flood insurance requirements, the
Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the
requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration
with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing
coverage not less than the least of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the
Mortgage Loan, (ii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing
such Mortgage Loan or (iii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available
under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. The Servicer shall
also maintain on the REO Property, fire and hazard insurance with extended
coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the maximum insurable value of
the improvements which are a part of such property, liability insurance and, to
the extent required and available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of
1973, as amended, flood insurance in an amount as provided above. Any amounts
collected by the Servicer under any such policies other than amounts to be
deposited in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the
Mortgaged Property or REO Property, or released to the Mortgagor in accordance
with the Servicer's normal servicing procedures, shall be deposited in the
Mortgage Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to SECTION 4.05. It
is understood and agreed that no other additional insurance need be required by
the Servicer or the Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of
the Mortgage Loans, other than pursuant to such applicable state or Federal laws
and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such
additional insurance. All such policies shall be endorsed with standard
mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Servicer and its successors and/or
assigns and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of
any cancellation, reduction in the amount or material change in coverage to the
Servicer. The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor's freedom of
choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance
companies unless such companies currently reflect a General Policy Rating in
Best's currently acceptable to Fannie Mae and are licensed to do business in the
state wherein the property subject to the policy is located.

        Section 4.10    FIDELITY BOND, ERRORS AND OMISSIONS INSURANCE.

        The Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond
and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage with
responsible companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any
capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans and who handle funds, money,
documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. The Fidelity Bond and
errors and omissions insurance shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker's
Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including
forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of
such persons. Such Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall also
protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the failure to
maintain any insurance policies required pursuant to this Agreement and the
release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in
full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this SECTION 4.10
requiring the Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or
relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this
Agreement. The minimum coverage under any such

                                       -20-
<PAGE>

Fidelity Bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the corresponding
amounts required under Accepted Servicing Practices. The Servicer shall, upon
request of Agent, deliver to the Agent a certificate from the surety and the
insurer as to the existence of the Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions
insurance policy and shall obtain a statement from the surety and the insurer
that such Fidelity Bond or insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or
materially modified without thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the
Administrative Borrower and Agent. The Servicer shall notify the Administrative
Borrower and Agent within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice that such
Fidelity Bond or insurance policy will be, or has been, materially modified or
terminated. The Administrative Borrower, Agent and their respective successors
or assigns as their interests may appear must be named as loss payees on the
Fidelity Bond and as additional insured on the errors and omissions policy.

        Section 4.11    TITLE, MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSITION OF REO PROPERTY.

        In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired in
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale
shall be taken in the name of the applicable Borrower or its designees as
designated in writing by Agent. Any such Person or Persons holding such title
other than the applicable Borrower shall acknowledge in writing that such title
is being held as nominee for the benefit of such Borrower and the Secured
Parties.

        The Servicer shall notify the Administrative Borrower and Agent in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices of each acquisition of REO Property
upon such acquisition, and thereafter assume the responsibility for marketing
such REO Property in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Thereafter,
the Servicer shall continue to provide certain administrative services to the
applicable Borrower and Agent relating to such REO Property as set forth in this
SECTION 4.11. The REO Property must be sold within three (3) years following the
end of the calendar year of the date of acquisition, unless a REMIC election has
been made with respect to the arrangement under which the Mortgage Loans and REO
Property are held and (i) the applicable Borrower and Agent shall have been
supplied with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the
related trust of such Mortgaged Property subsequent to such three-year period
(and specifying the period beyond such three-year period for which the Mortgaged
Property may be held) will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited
transactions" of the related trust as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or
cause the related REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC, in which case the related
trust may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions
contained in such Opinion of Counsel), or (ii) the Administrative Borrower (at
the Servicer's expense) or the Servicer shall have applied for, prior to the
expiration of such three-year period, an extension of such three-year period in
the manner contemplated by Section 856(e)(3) of the Code, in which case the
three-year period shall be extended by the applicable period. If a period longer
than three (3) years is permitted under the foregoing sentence and is necessary
to sell any REO Property, (i) the Servicer shall report monthly to the
Administrative Borrower and Agent as to progress being made in selling such REO
Property and (ii) if, with the written consent of the Administrative Borrower
and Agent, a purchase money mortgage is taken in connection with such sale, such
purchase money mortgage shall name the Servicer as mortgagee, and such purchase
money mortgage shall not be held pursuant to this Agreement, but instead a
separate participation agreement between the Servicer and the applicable
Borrower shall be entered into with respect to such purchase money mortgage.

                                       -21-
<PAGE>

        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if a REMIC
election has been made, no Mortgaged Property held by a REMIC shall be rented
(or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the production of
income by or on behalf of the related trust or sold in such a manner or pursuant
to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify at
any time as "foreclosure property" within a meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the
Code, (ii) subject the related trust to the imposition of any Federal or state
income taxes on "net income from foreclosure property" with respect to such
Mortgaged Property within the meaning of Section 860G(c) of the Code, or (iii)
cause the sale of such Mortgaged Property to result in the receipt by the
related trust or any income from non-permitted assets as described in Section
860F(a) (2)(B) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold
harmless the related trust with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

        The Servicer shall, either itself or through an agent selected by the
Servicer, and in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices, manage,
conserve, protect and operate each REO Property in the same manner that it
manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own
account, and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as
the REO Property is managed. Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the
Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems
to be in the best interest of the applicable Borrower and the Secured Parties.
The REO Disposition Proceeds from the sale of the REO Property shall be promptly
deposited in the Mortgage Collection Account. As soon as practical thereafter,
the expenses of such sale shall be paid and the Servicer shall reimburse itself
for any related Servicing Advances.

        The Servicer shall cause each REO Property to be inspected promptly upon
the acquisition of title thereto and shall cause each REO Property to be
inspected at least monthly thereafter or more frequently as may be required by
the circumstances. The Servicer shall make or cause the inspector to make a
written report of each such inspection. Such reports shall be retained in the
Servicing File and copies thereof shall be forwarded by the Servicer to the
Administrative Borrower.

        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this SECTION 4.11,
the parties hereto hereby agree that the Administrative Borrower, upon the
written consent of Agent, shall be entitled to manage, conserve, protect and
operate each REO Property for the benefit and on behalf of the applicable
Borrower (such option, an "REO OPTION"). In connection with the exercise of an
REO Option, the prior two paragraphs and the related provisions of SECTION 4.03
and SECTION 4.04(III) (such provisions, the "REO MARKETING PROVISIONS") shall be
revised as follows. Following the acquisition of any Mortgaged Property, the
Servicer shall submit to the Administrative Borrower and Agent copies of
invoices, bills and other documentation relating to Servicing Advances in a form
that would permit the applicable Borrower or the Secured Parties to fully
recover any amounts due pursuant to any insurance policies and, upon exercising
the REO Option, such Borrower shall promptly reimburse the Servicer for such
amounts. In the event the REO Option is exercised with respect to an REO
Property, SECTION 4.04(III) shall not be applicable thereto. References made in
SECTION 4.03 with respect to the reimbursement of Servicing Advances shall, for
purposes of such REO Property, be deemed to be covered by this paragraph. The
Administrative Borrower acknowledges that, in the event it exercises an REO

                                       -22-
<PAGE>

Option, with respect to the related REO Property, there shall be no breach by
the Servicer based upon or arising out of the Servicer's failure to comply with
the REO Marketing Provisions.

                                   ARTICLE V

                                    PAYMENTS

        Section 5.01    REMITTANCES.

        On each Payment Date, the Agent shall cause to be remitted all amounts
credited to the Mortgage Collection Account as of the close of business on the
related preceding Determination Date, net of charges against or withdrawals from
the Mortgage Collection Account pursuant to SECTION 4.05. One (1) Business Day
prior to each Payment Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Agent a remittance
report. The Agent shall confirm the amounts contained in the report and
authorize the remittance of such amounts in the following order of priority:

        (a) to pay the fees and expenses of the Custodian;

        (b) to pay any Servicing Fee then due;

        (c) to pay the accrued Back-up Servicing Fee then due, including any
Servicing Transfer Costs payable pursuant to SECTION 9.03 hereof;

        (d) to pay to the Lenders the unreimbursed Lender Expenses and
Indemnified Liabilities of the Lender-Related Parties;

        (e) to pay the interest due to the Lenders;

        (f) to pay the principal due to the Lenders to satisfy any Borrowing
Base Deficiencies in the order set forth in SECTION 2.06(A) of the Loan
Agreement;

        (g) to pay the Backup Servicer for any Nonrecoverable Advances made by
it; and

        (h) to pay the balance to the Borrowers.

In the event the Backup Servicer becomes the successor Servicer hereunder, the
Backup Servicer may (i) cause to be remitted all amounts credited to the
Mortgage Collection Account as of the close of business on the related preceding
Determination Date, net of charges against or withdrawals from the Mortgage
Collection Account pursuant to SECTION 4.05 and (ii) authorize the remittance of
such amounts in the order of priority set forth above; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
it shall seek confirmation from Agent for all such amounts remitted pursuant to
this SECTION 5.01.

        Section 5.02    STATEMENTS TO THE BORROWERS AND AGENT.

        The Servicer shall furnish to the Administrative Borrower, the Backup
Servicer and Agent an individual Mortgage Loan accounting report (a "REPORT"),
as of the last Business

                                       -23-
<PAGE>

Day of each month, in the Servicer's assigned loan number order to document
Mortgage Loan payment activity on an individual Mortgage Loan basis. With
respect to each month, such Report shall be received by the Administrative
Borrower, the Backup Servicer and Agent (i) no later than the fifth (5th)
Business Day of the following month of the related Payment Date on a disk or
tape or other computer-readable format, in such format as may be mutually agreed
upon by the Administrative Borrower, Agent and the Servicer, and (ii) no later
than the tenth (10th) Business Day of the following month of the related Payment
Date in hard copy (PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Backup Servicer has succeeded
as the successor Servicer hereunder, the duty to provide such Report in hard
copy shall be at the option of the successor Servicer), which Report shall
contain the following:

                (i)     With respect to each Monthly Payment (on both an actual
and scheduled basis with respect to Mortgage Loan balances and on an actual
basis with respect to paid-through dates), the amount of such remittance
allocable to principal (including a separate breakdown of any Principal
Prepayment, including the date of such prepayment, and any prepayment penalties
or premiums, along with a detailed report of interest on Principal Prepayment
amounts remitted in accordance with SECTION 5.01);

                (ii)    with respect to each Monthly Payment, the amount of such
remittance allocable

                (iii)   to interest;

                (iv)    the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans;

                (v)     the aggregate of any Servicing Advances reimbursed to
the Servicer during the prior distribution period pursuant to SECTION 4.05;

                (vi)    the number and aggregate outstanding principal balances
of Mortgage Loans (a) delinquent (1) thirty (30) to fifty-nine (59) days, (2)
sixty (60) to eighty-nine (89) days, (3) ninety (90) days or more; (b) as to
which foreclosure has commenced; and (c) as to which REO Property has been
acquired; and

                (vii)   such other reports as may reasonably be required by the
Administrative Borrower or Agent.

        The Servicer shall also provide a trial balance, sorted in the
Borrowers' assigned loan number order, in such form as the Servicer, Agent and
the Administrative Borrower shall agree, with each such Report.

        The Servicer shall prepare and file any and all information statements
or other filings required to be delivered to any governmental taxing authority
or to Administrative Borrower pursuant to any applicable law with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the
Servicer shall provide the Administrative Borrower with such information
concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for the Borrowers to prepare their
Federal income tax returns as the Administrative Borrower may reasonably request
from time to time.

                                       -24-
<PAGE>

        In addition, not more than sixty (60) days after the end of each
calendar year, the Servicer shall furnish to each Person who was a Borrower at
any time during such calendar year an annual statement in accordance with the
requirements of applicable Federal income tax law together with a copy to Agent
as to the aggregate of remittances of principal and interest for the applicable
portion of such year.

        Section 5.03    LIQUIDATION REPORTS.

        Upon the foreclosure sale of any Mortgaged Property or the acquisition
thereof by a Borrower pursuant to a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer
shall submit to the Administrative Borrower a liquidation report with respect to
such Mortgaged Property in such form as the Servicer and the Administrative
Borrower shall agree. The Servicer shall also provide reports on the status of
REO Property containing such information as the Administrative Borrower may
reasonably require.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                          GENERAL SERVICING PROCEDURES

        Section 6.01    ASSUMPTION AGREEMENTS.

        The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or
prospective conveyance by any Mortgagor of a Mortgaged Property (whether by
absolute conveyance or by contract of, sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor
remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage),
exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under any
"due-on-sale" clause to the extent permitted by law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Servicer shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law or the terms of
the Mortgage Note from doing so or if the exercise of such rights would impair
or threaten to impair any recovery under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy, if any. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under
applicable law to enforce such "due-on-sale" clause, the Servicer, with the
approval of the Administrative Borrower and Agent (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld), will enter into an assumption agreement with the person
to whom the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed,
pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the
extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon.
Where an assumption is allowed pursuant to this SECTION 6.01, the Servicer, with
the prior consent of the primary mortgage insurer, if any, is authorized to
enter into a substitution of liability agreement with the person to whom the
Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed pursuant to
which the original mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is
substituted as mortgagor and becomes liable under the related Mortgage Note. Any
such substitution of liability agreement shall be in lieu of an assumption
agreement.

        In connection with any such assumption or substitution of liability, the
Servicer shall follow the underwriting practices and procedures set forth in the
Approved Underwriting Guidelines. With respect to an assumption or substitution
of liability, the Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note and
the amount of the Monthly Payment may not be

                                       -25-
<PAGE>

changed. The Servicer shall notify the Administrative Borrower and Agent that
any such substitution of liability or assumption agreement has been completed by
forwarding to the Administrative Borrower and Agent the original of any such
substitution of liability or assumption agreement, which document shall be added
to the related Mortgage Loan Documents and shall, for all purposes, be
considered a part of such related mortgage file to the same extent as all other
documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. All fees collected by the
Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of liability agreement
shall belong to the Servicer.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this section or any other
provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default,
breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any
assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the
Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
For purposes of this SECTION 6.01, the term "assumption" is deemed to also
include a sale of the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage that is not
accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.

        Section 6.02    SATISFACTION OF MORTGAGES AND RELEASE OF MORTGAGE LOAN
                        DOCUMENTS.

        Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer will
immediately notify the Administrative Borrower with a certification and request
for release, which certification shall include a statement to the effect that
all amounts received in connection with such payment which are required to be
deposited in the Mortgage Collection Account pursuant to SECTION 4.04 have been
so deposited, and a request for delivery to the Servicer of the portion of the
Mortgage Loan Documents held by the Custodian, and unless the related Mortgage
Loans are the subject of a Pass-Through Transfer, such request is to be
acknowledged by the Agent. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the
Administrative Borrower and Agent shall promptly cause the Custodian to promptly
release the related Mortgage Loan Documents to the Servicer and the Servicer
shall prepare and deliver for execution by the applicable Borrower or at such
Borrower's option execute under the authority of a power of attorney delivered
to the Servicer by such Borrower any satisfaction or release. No expense
incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of
reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Mortgage Collection Account.

        In the event the Servicer satisfies or releases a Mortgage without
having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or
should it otherwise prejudice any right the applicable Borrower or the Secured
Parties may have under the mortgage instruments, the Servicer, upon written
demand, shall remit within two (2) Business Days to the Administrative Borrower
the then outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan by deposit
thereof in the Mortgage Collection Account. The Servicer shall maintain the
Fidelity Bond insuring the Servicer against any loss it may sustain with respect
to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth
herein and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.

        From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of
the Mortgage Loans, including for the purpose of collection under any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy, upon request of the Servicer and delivery to the
Administrative Borrower of a servicing

                                       -26-
<PAGE>

receipt signed by a Servicing Officer (and unless the related Mortgage Loans are
the subject of a Pass-Through Transfer, acknowledged by the Agent), and upon
receipt of such servicing request, the Administrative Borrower and Agent shall
promptly cause the Custodian to promptly release the portion of the Mortgage
Loan Documents held by the Custodian to the Servicer. Such servicing receipt
shall obligate the Servicer to promptly return the related Mortgage Loan
Documents to the Custodian, when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer
exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation
Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Mortgage
Collection Account or such documents have been delivered to an attorney, or to a
public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of
initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of
the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer has
promptly delivered to the Administrative Borrower, Agent and the Custodian a
certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the
Person to which such documents were delivered and the purpose or purposes of
such delivery. Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that
such Mortgage Loan was liquidated, the servicing receipt shall be released by
the Administrative Borrower, Agent and/or the Custodian, as applicable, to the
Servicer.

        Section 6.03    SERVICING COMPENSATION.

        As compensation for its services hereunder, the Servicer shall be
entitled to remit from the Mortgage Collection Account on the Mortgage Loans the
amounts provided for as the Servicer's Servicing Fee under SECTION 5.01.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of interest earned on the Mortgage
Collection Account, assumption fees, as provided in SECTION 6.01, late payment
charges and other ancillary fees shall be retained by the Servicer to the extent
not required to be deposited in the Mortgage Collection Account. The Servicer
shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its
servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement
therefor except as specifically provided for.

        Section 6.04    ANNUAL STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE.

        The Servicer will deliver to the Administrative Borrower, the Backup
Servicer and Agent not later than ninety (90) days following the end of each
fiscal year of the Servicer, an Officer's Certificate stating that (i) a review
of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding calendar year and of
performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision,
and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the
Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout
such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such
obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature
and status thereof except for such defaults as such officer in its good faith
judgment believes to be immaterial.

        Section 6.05    ANNUAL INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS'
                        SERVICING REPORT.

        Not later than ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of
the Servicer, the Servicer at its expense shall cause a firm of independent
public accountants which is a member of the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Administrative Borrower and
Agent to the effect that such firm has examined certain documents and records
relating to the Servicer's servicing of mortgage loans of the same type as

                                       -27-
<PAGE>

the Mortgage Loans pursuant to servicing agreements substantially similar to
this Agreement, which agreements may include this Agreement, and that, on the
basis of such an examination, conducted substantially in accordance with the
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, such firm is of the
opinion that the Servicer's servicing has been conducted in compliance with the
agreements examined pursuant to this SECTION 6.05, except for (i) such
exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial, and (ii) such other
exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement.

        Section 6.06    BORROWERS' RIGHT TO EXAMINE SERVICER RECORDS.

        Each of the Borrowers, the Backup Servicer and Agent shall have the
right to examine and audit, at its respective expense, upon reasonable notice to
the Servicer, during business hours or at such other times as might be
reasonable under applicable circumstances, any and all of the books, records,
documentation or other information of the Servicer, or held by another for the
Servicer or on its behalf or otherwise, which relate to the performance or
observance by the Servicer of the terms, covenants or conditions of this
Agreement.

        The Servicer shall provide to the Borrowers, the Agent and any
supervisory agents or examiners representing a state or Federal governmental
agency having jurisdiction over the Borrowers or the Agent, including but not
limited to OTS, FDIC and other similar entities, access to any documentation
regarding the Mortgage Loans in the possession of the Servicer which may be
required by any applicable regulations. Such access shall be afforded without
charge, upon reasonable request, during normal business hours and at the offices
of the Servicer, and in accordance with the applicable Federal government
agency, FDIC, OTS, or any other similar regulations.

        Section 6.07    NON-SOLICITATION.

        The Servicer or any agent or affiliate shall not knowingly conduct any
solicitation exclusively targeted to the Mortgagors for the purpose of inducing
or encouraging the early prepayment or refinancing of the related Mortgage
Loans. It is understood and agreed that promotions undertaken by the Servicer or
any agent or affiliate of the Servicer which are directed to the general public
at large, including, without limitation, mass mailings based on commercially
acquired mailing lists, newspaper, radio and television advertisements shall not
constitute solicitation under this section. Nothing contained herein shall
prohibit the Servicer from (i) distributing any general advertising including
information brochures, coupon books, or other similar documentation which
indicates services the seller offers, including refinances to all Mortgagors in
Servicer's servicing portfolio or (ii) providing financing of home equity loans
to Mortgagors at the Mortgagor's request.

                                       -28-
<PAGE>

        The Servicer shall furnish to Agent and the Administrative Borrower upon
request, during the term of this Agreement, such periodic, special or other
reports or information, whether or not provided for herein, as shall be
necessary, reasonable or appropriate with respect to the purposes of this
Agreement. The Servicer may negotiate with the Administrative Borrower or Agent
for a reasonable fee for providing such report or information, unless (i) the
Servicer is required to supply such report or information pursuant to any other
section of this Agreement, or (ii) the report or information has been requested
in connection with Internal Revenue Service, OTS, FDIC or other regulatory
agency requirements. All such reports or information shall be provided by and in
accordance with all reasonable instructions and directions given by the
Administrative Borrower or Agent. The Servicer agrees to execute and deliver all
such instruments and take all such action as the Administrative Borrower or
Agent, from time to time, may reasonably request in order to effectuate the
purpose and to carry out the terms of this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                  THE SERVICER

        Section 8.01    INDEMNIFICATION; THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.

        The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Borrowers, the Backup Servicer and
Agent and hold each harmless from and against any and all claims, losses,
damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments,
and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Borrowers, the Backup Servicer
or Agent may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to
perform in any way its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in strict
compliance with the terms of this Agreement and for breach of any representation
or warranty of the Servicer contained herein. The Servicer shall immediately
notify the Administrative Borrower, the Backup Servicer and Agent if a claim is
made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans,
assume (with the consent of the Administrative Borrower and with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Borrower) the defense of any such
claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and
promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered
against it, the Borrowers, the Backup Servicer or Agent in respect of such claim
but failure to so notify the Administrative Borrower, the Backup Servicer or
Agent shall not limit its obligations hereunder. The Servicer agrees that it
will not enter into any settlement of any such claim without the consent of the
Administrative Borrower, the Backup Servicer and Agent unless such settlement
includes an unconditional release of the Borrowers from all liability that is
the subject matter of such claim. The provisions of this SECTION 8.01 shall
survive termination of this Agreement.

        Section 8.02    EXISTENCE OF THE SERVICER.

        The Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and
franchises as a corporation under the laws of the state of its incorporation
except as permitted herein, and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do
business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its
duties under this Agreement.

        Section 8.03    LIMITATION ON LIABILITY OF THE SERVICER AND OTHERS.

        Neither the Servicer nor any of the officers, employees or agents of the
Servicer shall be under any liability to the Borrowers for any action taken or
for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment made in good faith; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any
breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform in
any way its obligations in compliance with any standard of care set forth in
this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of
negligence or any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The
Servicer and any officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good
faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by
the Borrowers respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Servicer shall not
be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which
is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expenses or
liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer may, with the consent of the
Administrative Borrower and Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable
with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.
In such event, the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action and any
liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities for which
the Borrowers will be liable, and the Servicer shall be entitled to be
reimbursed therefor from the Borrowers upon written demand.

        Section 8.04     SERVICER NOT TO RESIGN.

        The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Servicer, the Borrowers and Agent
or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible
under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer. Any
such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced
by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Borrowers and Agent
which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the
Borrowers. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall
have assumed the Servicer's responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the
manner provided in SECTIONS 9.01 AND 9.03.

        Section 8.05    NO TRANSFER OF SERVICING.

        With respect to the retention of the Servicer to service the Mortgage
Loans hereunder, the Servicer acknowledges that the Borrowers and Agent have
acted in reliance upon the Servicer's independent status, the adequacy of its
servicing facilities, plan, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity,
reputation and financial standing and the continuance thereof. Without in any
way limiting the generality of this section, the Servicer shall not either
assign this Agreement or the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or
duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written approval
of the Borrowers and Agent; provided, that the Servicer may delegate its rights
or duties to the Administrative Borrower or HAC without such prior written
approval.

                                    DEFAULT

        Section 9.01    EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

        In case one or more of the following Events of Default by the Servicer
shall occur and be continuing, that is to say:

                (i)     any failure by the Servicer to remit any payment
required to be made under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied
for either one (1) Business Day, if the Servicer is American Business Credit,
Inc. or two (2) Business Days, if the Backup Servicer has become the successor
to the Servicer, (it being understood that this subparagraph shall not affect
Servicer's obligation pursuant to SECTION 5.01 to pay default interest on any
remittance received after the Business Day on which such payment was due); or

                (ii)    any failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe
or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on
the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement, the breach of which has a
material adverse effect and which continues unremedied for a period of thirty
(30) days (except that such number of days shall be fifteen (15) in the case of
a failure to pay any premium for any insurance policy required to be maintained
under this Agreement and such failure shall be deemed to have a material adverse
effect) after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the
same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Administrative
Borrower or Agent; or

                (iii)   only if American Business Credit, Inc. is the Servicer,
there occurs any "Event of Default" as defined in the Loan Agreement; or

                (iv)    only if American Business Credit, Inc. is the Servicer,
the Servicer attempts to assign its right to servicing compensation hereunder or
the Servicer attempts, without the consent of the Administrative Borrower, to
sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets
(other than through a Permitted Disposition in accordance with the terms of the
Loan Agreement) or to assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities
hereunder or to delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof except as
otherwise permitted herein; or

                (v)     the Servicer ceases (either directly or indirectly
through its subservicers) to be qualified to transact business in any
jurisdiction where it is currently so qualified, but only to the extent such
non-qualification materially and adversely affects the Servicer's ability to
perform its obligations hereunder; or

                (vi)    only if American Business Credit, Inc. is the Servicer,
the Servicer shall cease to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Administrative
Borrower;

        then, and in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default
shall not have been remedied, the Borrowers (with prior written consent of
Agent) or Agent, by notice in writing to the Servicer and a copy to Backup
Servicer may, in addition to whatever rights the

                                       -31-
<PAGE>

Borrowers or Agent may have under SECTION 8.01 and at law or equity to damages,
including injunctive relief and specific performance, terminate all the rights
and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage
Loans and the proceeds thereof without compensating the Servicer for the same.
On or after the receipt by the Servicer and Backup Servicer of such written
notice of the termination of Servicer, all authority and power of the Servicer
under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise,
shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer pursuant to and under this
SECTION 9.01, and, without limitation, the Backup Servicer, is hereby authorized
and empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver, on
behalf of and at the expense of the Servicer, any and all documents and other
instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to
complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and
related documents, or otherwise. Upon written request from the Borrowers and the
Agent, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver, any and all documents
and other instruments, and place in the Backup Servicer's possession all
Servicing Files, and do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to
complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and
related documents, or otherwise, at the Servicer's sole expense. The Servicer
agrees to cooperate with the Borrowers, the Agent and the Backup Servicer in
effecting the termination of the Servicer's responsibilities and rights
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Backup Servicer
for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited
by the Servicer to the Mortgage Collection Account or Escrow Account or
otherwise held by the Servicer or thereafter received with respect to the
Mortgage Loans or any REO Property.

        In the event that the Backup Servicer becomes the successor Servicer,
the parties hereby agree that there shall no longer be the requirement to have a
Backup Servicer.

        Section 9.02    WAIVER OF DEFAULTS.

        The Administrative Borrower may waive only by written notice and only
upon the written consent of Agent any default by the Servicer in the performance
of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a
past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default
arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of
this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default
or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived
in writing.

        Section 9.03    BACKUP SERVICER.

        (a) From and after the Effective Date hereof until the Servicing
Transfer Date, the Backup Servicer shall act as back-up servicer with respect to
the Mortgage Loans, and shall perform such functions, duties, obligations,
undertakings and responsibilities as set forth in SECTION 9.03(B) below. Prior
to the Servicing Transfer Date, the Backup Servicer shall have only those duties
and obligations imposed by it described in SECTION 9.03(B) below, and shall have
no obligations or duties under any agreement to which it is not a party,
including but not limited to the various agreements named herein. In its
capacity as Backup Servicer, it shall in no event be liable for any obligations
of the Borrowers or the Servicer to any party, whether hereunder or

                                       -32-
<PAGE>

under any other agreement, which are not related to servicing functions,
including, without limitation, any repurchase obligations.

        (b) No later than the fifth (5th) Business Day of each calendar month,
the Servicer shall deliver to the Backup Servicer a complete set of servicing
records in computer-readable form with respect to the payment, collection and
other servicing activity of the Mortgage Loans during the preceding calendar
month, which records shall contain sufficient data to permit the Backup Servicer
to assume the duties of the Servicer hereunder without delay on account of the
absence of relevant servicing information. The information described in the
foregoing sentence and all other information provided by the Servicer to the
Backup Servicer pursuant to the Agreement shall be in form and substance
satisfactory to the Backup Servicer. On at least a monthly basis, the Backup
Servicer shall convert and "map" the data contained in such servicing records to
its own servicing system, and shall provide the Agent not later than the
fifteenth (15th) day of each month commencing March 15, 2005, with a
certification by an appropriate officer of the Backup Servicer to the effect
that it has received from the Servicer each monthly submission of servicing
data, has completed such conversion and mapping of the data delivered with
respect to the immediately preceding month, and is capable of assuming the
duties of the Servicer if required to do so hereunder upon at least twenty (20)
days' prior to written notice from the Agent.

        (c) The Backup Servicer, prior to assuming any of the Servicer's duties
hereunder may not resign hereunder unless it arranges for a successor Backup
Servicer reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent with
not less than ninety (90) days' notice delivered to the Administrative Borrower,
the Agent and the Servicer.

        (d) From and after the Servicing Transfer Date, the Backup Servicer
shall perform all of the functions, duties, obligations, undertakings and
responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder and shall be the successor to the
Servicer hereunder, but only in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement.
In the event the Backup Servicer becomes the successor Servicer, it shall not be
liable for any acts or omissions of the Servicer under this Agreement or any
other agreement or for any act or omission of the Servicer or its affiliated
companies, any prior servicer or any other third party, which occurred in
connection with the origination, receiving, processing, funding or servicing of
a mortgage loan at any time prior to the Servicing Transfer Date or for the
collection of any debt, costs, expenses or fees incurred or assessed by
Servicer, or its affiliated companies or any third party in connection with the
origination or servicing of a mortgage loan prior to the Servicing Transfer
Date, and it shall not be deemed to have made any representations and warranties
of the Servicer or any predecessor Servicer under this Agreement or any other
agreement. In the event the Backup Servicer becomes the successor Servicer, it
shall be not deemed to be in default thereunder by reason of any failure to
make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof
caused by (a) the failure of the Servicer or any predecessor Servicer to (i)
deliver, or any delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to it, (ii)
cooperate as required by this Agreement, or (iii) deliver the Mortgage Loans to
the Custodian as required by this Agreement, or (b) restrictions imposed by any
regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer.

        (e) Upon the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans, prior to
the first Payment Date after the Servicing Transfer Date, the Agent shall cause
the Custodian to provide

                                       -33-
<PAGE>

the Backup Servicer with an officer's certificate that contains (i) a complete
description of all material breaches by the Servicer which have not been fully
cured and (ii) a confirmation that all reports required to be filed by the
Custodian have been timely filed.

        (f) The Backup Servicer agrees to indemnify the Borrowers, the Servicer
and the Agent, and any of their respective directors, officers, employees or
agents from, and hold them harmless against, any and all costs, expenses
(including reasonable attorney fees and disbursements), losses, claims, damages
and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or
liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Borrowers, the Servicer or the
Agent and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents through the
Backup Servicer's intentional misconduct or gross negligence, except to the
extent such indemnified party's own bad faith, willful misconduct or gross
negligence contributes to the costs, loss, claim, damage or liability. Each of
the Borrowers, the Servicer and the Agent agrees, severally and not jointly, to
indemnify the Backup Servicer, and any of its respective directors, officers,
employees or agents from, and hold them harmless against, any and all costs,
expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and disbursements), losses, claims,
damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim,
damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Backup Servicer and
its respective directors, officers, employees and agents through the intentional
misconduct or gross negligence of the Borrowers, the Servicer or the Agent,
except to the extent such indemnified party's own bad faith, willful misconduct
or gross negligence contributes to the costs, loss, claim, damage or liability
(for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Borrowers or Agent indemnify the
Backup Servicer for the intentional misconduct or gross negligence of either (x)
the other or (y) the Servicer). The Servicer and each of its affiliates agrees
to indemnify the Backup Servicer, and any of its respective directors, officers,
employees or agents from, and hold them harmless against, any and all costs,
expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and disbursements), losses, claims,
damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim,
damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Backup Servicer and
its respective directors, officers, employees and agents through or for any act
or omission of the Servicer or its affiliated companies, any prior servicer or
any other third party, which occurred in connection with the origination,
receiving, processing, funding or servicing of a mortgage loan at any time prior
to the Servicing Transfer Date or for the collection of any debt, costs,
expenses or fees incurred or assessed by Servicer, or its affiliated companies
or any third party in connection with the origination or servicing of a mortgage
loan prior to the Servicing Transfer Date.

        (g) The Backup Servicer will not be obligated to incur any expenses or
costs (including, without limitation, legal fees and the preparation and
recording of all intervening assignments of mortgage) in connection with the
transfer of servicing of the Mortgage Loans to the Backup Servicer, or to compel
the performance of any obligations by any party to the Agreement. Without
limiting any obligations of a terminated Servicer as provided above, if the
Servicer is no longer the Servicer hereunder for any reason, such predecessor
Servicer shall be responsible for paying any Servicing Transfer Costs incurred
by the Backup Servicer in connection with the transfer of servicing from the
predecessor Servicer; provided, that if the predecessor Servicer fails to pay
any such Servicing Transfer Costs, the Agent shall cause such Servicing Transfer
Costs to be paid out of the Mortgage Collection Account. In addition, if the
Backup Servicer is the successor to the Servicer, and if the predecessor
Servicer fails to pay any

                                       -34-
<PAGE>

Servicing Transfer Costs incurred by the Backup Servicer, then the Backup
Servicer may offset any such Servicing Transfer Costs against amounts that are
payable or reimbursable to the predecessor Servicer with respect to unpaid
Servicing Fees and unreimbursed Servicing Advances as set forth below in the
following paragraph below (and the Backup Servicer shall only be paid such
Servicing Transfer Costs from the Mortgage Collection Account to the extent it
reasonably determines that such Servicing Transfer Costs will not be recoverable
pursuant to such offsets). To the extent such Servicing Transfer Costs remain
unpaid by the predecessor Servicer, from the Mortgage Collection Account, or
from offset against amounts that are payable or reimbursable to the predecessor
Servicer with respect to unpaid Servicing Fees and unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, such unpaid Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid by the Borrowers
and the predecessor Servicer, jointly and severally. The foregoing obligation of
the predecessor Servicer with respect to Servicing Transfer Costs shall not be
deemed to limit any other liability the predecessor Servicer may have to the
other parties hereto in respect of any breach of its obligations or duties
hereunder.

        (h) If the Backup Servicer is the successor to the Servicer, the Backup
Servicer in such capacity shall remit all unpaid Servicing Fees accrued during
the period prior to the Servicing Transfer and unreimbursed Servicing Advances
outstanding on the Servicing Transfer Date to the predecessor Servicer;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, there shall be no duty to so remit if the Servicing Transfer
is the result of an Event of Default under this Agreement with respect to the
predecessor Servicer; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that such duty to reimburse relates
only to all such unpaid Servicing Fees accrued during the period prior to the
Servicing Transfer and unreimbursed Servicing Advances made by the predecessor
Servicer prior to Servicing Transfer Date; and, FURTHER, PROVIDED, that the
Backup Servicer in its capacity as successor Servicer shall be obliged to make
such reimbursement only out of collections on the related Mortgage Loan,
(including monthly collections, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, or
their equivalent) and such other amounts that the Servicer is permitted to
collect from the related Mortgagor or otherwise relating to the related Mortgage
Loan before the Backup Servicer in its capacity as successor Servicer reimburses
itself for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances which it makes with respect to
such Mortgage Loan. The Backup Servicer in its capacity as successor Servicer
shall remit any funds due to the predecessor Servicer under this paragraph on
the Payment Date.

        (i) The Backup Servicer, as compensation for its obligations and duties
as Backup Servicer hereunder, shall be paid the Backup Servicing Fee on each
Payment Date pursuant to SECTION 5.01. If the Backup Servicer shall succeed as
Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall no longer be entitled to be paid
the Backup Servicing Fee with respect to any period after the Servicing Transfer
Date.

        (j) If any of the Mortgage Loans are MERS Designated Mortgage Loans, in
connection with the termination or resignation of the Servicer hereunder, the
Backup Servicer shall maintain itself as a member of MERS in good standing and
comply in all material respects with the MERS Procedures Manual in connection
with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, and the
Servicer and Backup Servicer shall cause MERS to designate on the MERS System
the Backup Servicer as the current servicer of such Mortgage Loan.

hereunder the term of the Backup Servicer as Servicer shall not be subject to

Backup Servicer. The Servicer hereby agrees that, upon its receipt of any such
Servicer Extension Notice, the Servicer shall become bound for the duration of
the term covered by such Servicer Extension Notice to continue as the Servicer
subject to and in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

        On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination, the
Backup Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its

provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Servicer
(except for any representations or warranties of the Servicer under this
Agreement by the terms and provisions hereof).

        Section 10.02   TERMINATION.

        The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Servicer shall
terminate upon: (i) the later of the final payment of the last Mortgage Loan and
the remittance of all funds due hereunder; or (ii) by mutual consent of the
Servicer, the Borrowers and the Agent in writing; or (iii) termination by the
Agent pursuant to SECTION 9.01.

        Section 10.03   TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE.

        The Agent may, at its sole option, terminate any rights the Servicer may
have hereunder, without cause, upon twenty (20) days' prior written notice. Any
such notice of termination shall be in writing and delivered to the Servicer as
provided in SECTION 11.04 of this Agreement.

        Termination pursuant to this SECTION 10.03 shall be effective on the
date (the "TRANSFER DATE") on which the Servicer transfers all responsibilities,
rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement to the successor appointed
pursuant to SECTIONS 9.01 AND 9.03. The Borrowers shall appoint such successor
upon written consent of Agent and such Transfer Date shall be no more than
twenty (20) days following the date on which the Servicer receives notice of
termination.

public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the
Servicer at the Servicer's expense on direction of the Administrative Borrower
or Agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel to the effect that such
recordation materially and beneficially affects the interest of the Borrowers or
Agent or is necessary for the administration or servicing the Mortgage Loans.

        Section 11.03   GOVERNING LAW.

        THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE

premises of the address (as evidenced, in the case of registered or certified
mail, by the date noted on the return receipt).

        Section 11.05   SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS.

        Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which
is prohibited or which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of
this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be void or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective, as to such jurisdiction,
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction as to any Mortgage Loan shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law which prohibits
or renders void or unenforceable any provision hereof. If the invalidity of any
part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement shall deprive any
party of the economic benefit intended to be conferred by this Agreement, the
parties shall negotiate, in good faith, to develop a structure the economic
effect of which is nearly as possible the same as the economic effect of this
Agreement without regard to such invalidity.

keep all non-public information regarding the other party strictly confidential,
and to use all such information solely in order to effectuate the purpose of
this Agreement.

Servicer, the Backup Servicer and the Borrowers and their respective successors
and assigns.
