         This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, effective as of November 1, 2003,
among RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC., as the depositor (together with
its permitted successors and assigns, the "Depositor"), RESIDENTIAL FUNDING
CORPORATION, as master servicer (together with its permitted successors and
assigns, the "Master Servicer"), and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, a New York banking
corporation, as trustee (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the
"Trustee").

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

         The Depositor intends to sell mortgage-backed pass-through certificates
(collectively, the "Certificates"), to be issued hereunder in sixteen classes,
which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in
the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein).

                                     REMIC I

         As provided herein, the REMIC Administrator will make an election to
treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the Group I Loans, Group II
Loans, Group III Loans and Group IV Loans and certain other related assets
subject to this Agreement as a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a
"REMIC") for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets
will be designated as "REMIC I." The Class R-I Certificates will represent the
sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions (as defined herein) under federal income tax law. The following table
irrevocably sets forth the designation, remittance rate (the "REMIC I
Pass-Through Rate") and initial Uncertificated Principal Balance for each of the
"regular interests" in REMIC I (the "REMIC I Regular Interests"). The "latest
possible maturity date" (determined solely for purposes of satisfying Treasury
regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii)) for each REMIC I Regular Interest shall
be the date set forth below. None of the REMIC I Regular Interests will be
certificated.

as to any Class of Certificates (other than the Principal Only Certificates), an
amount equal to interest accrued during the related Interest Accrual Period at
the related Pass-Through Rate on the Certificate Principal Balance or Notional
Amount thereof immediately prior to such Distribution Date. Accrued Certificate
Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve
30-day months. In each case Accrued Certificate Interest on any Class of
Certificates will be reduced by interest shortfalls from the Mortgage Loans in
the related Loan Group, if any, allocated to such Class of Certificates for such
Distribution Date, to the extent not covered with respect to the Senior
Certificates by the Subordination provided by the Class B Certificates and Class
M Certificates and, with respect to each Class of Subordinate Certificates to
the extent not covered by the Subordination provided by each Subordinate
Certificate with a Lower Priority, including in each case:

         (i)      Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans in the
                  related Loan Group (to the extent not offset by the Master
                  Servicer with a payment of Compensating Interest as provided
                  in Section 4.01), allocated among the Certificates on a pro
                  rata basis,

         (ii)     the interest portion (adjusted to the Net Mortgage Rate (or
                  the Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified
                  Mortgage Loan)) of Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans in
                  the related Loan Group (including Excess Losses from the
                  related Loan Group) not allocated solely to one or more
                  specific Classes of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.05,

         (iii)    the interest portion of Advances that were (A) previously made
                  with respect to a Mortgage Loan or REO Property on the
                  Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group, which remained
                  unreimbursed following the Cash Liquidation or REO Disposition
                  of such Mortgage Loan or REO Property or (B) made with respect
                  to delinquencies that were ultimately determined to be Excess
                  Losses from the related Loan Group, and

         (iv)     any other interest shortfalls not covered by the subordination
                  provided by the Class M Certificates and Class B Certificates,
                  including interest that is not collectible from the Mortgagor
                  pursuant to the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of
                  1940, as amended, or similar legislation or regulations as in
                  effect from time to time,

on such Distribution Date absent such reductions. In addition to that portion of
the reductions described in the preceding sentence that are


                                        5

Certificates, Accrued Certificate Interest on such Class of Class B Certificates

         Classes in proportion to their respective Recalculated Percentages (the
         portion of such aggregate reduction so allocated to any Non- Maturing
         Class, the "Adjustment Percentage"); and (d) for purposes of such
         Distribution Date, the Prepayment Distribution Percentage of each
         related Non-Maturing Class shall be equal to the sum of (1) the
         Prepayment Distribution Percentage thereof, calculated in accordance
         with the provisions in paragraph (ii) above as if the Certificate
         Principal Balance of each related Maturing Class had not been reduced

preferred loan agreement as the case may be, has been delivered for recordation,
or (ii) a delay in the receipt of certain information necessary to prepare the
related assignments, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee or the respective Custodian a copy of such Mortgage, assignment,
modification, assumption agreement or preferred loan agreement.

         The Depositor shall promptly cause to be recorded in the appropriate
public office for real property records the Assignment referred to in clause
(I)(iii) of Section 2.01(b), except (a) in states where, in the opinion of
counsel acceptable to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, such recording is not
required to protect the Trustee's interests in the Mortgage Loan or (b) if MERS
is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the
Mortgage as the mortgagee of record solely as nominee for Residential Funding
and its successors and assigns, and shall promptly cause to be filed the Form
UCC-3 assignment and UCC-1 financing statement referred to in clause (II)(vii)
and (x), respectively, of Section 2.01(b). If any Assignment, Form UCC-3 or Form
UCC-1, as applicable, is lost or returned unrecorded to the Depositor because of
any defect therein, the Depositor shall prepare a substitute Assignment, Form
UCC-3 or Form UCC-1, as applicable, or cure such defect, as the case may be, and
cause such Assignment, Form UCC-3 or Form UCC-1, as applicable, to be recorded
in accordance with this paragraph. The Depositor shall promptly deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Trustee or the respective Custodian such Mortgage or
Assignment, Form UCC-3 or Form UCC-1, as applicable (or copy thereof as
permitted by Section 2.01(b)), with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon
receipt thereof from the public recording office or from the related
Subservicer. In connection with its servicing of Cooperative Loans, the Master
Servicer will use its best efforts to file timely continuation statements with
regard to each financing statement and assignment relating to Cooperative Loans
as to which the related Cooperative Apartment is located outside of the State of
New York.

         If the Depositor delivers to the Trustee or Custodian any Mortgage Note
or Assignment of Mortgage in blank, the Depositor shall, or shall cause the
Custodian to, complete the endorsement of the Mortgage Note and the Assignment
of Mortgage in the name of the Trustee in conjunction with the Interim
Certification issued by the Custodian, as contemplated by Section 2.02.

         Any of the items set forth in Sections 2.01(b)(I)(ii), (iii), (iv) and
(v) and (II)(vi) and (vii) and that may be delivered as a copy rather than the
original may be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian.

         In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on
the MERS(R) System, the Depositor further agrees that it will cause, at the
Depositor's own expense, within 30 days after the Closing Date, the MERS(R)
System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the Depositor
to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of the
Certificateholders by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans
which are repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer files
(a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trustee and (b) the code
in the field "Pool Field" which identifies the series of the Certificates issued
in connection with such Mortgage Loans. The Depositor further agrees that it
will not, and will not permit the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer
agrees that it will not, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with
respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until
such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

         (d) Residential Funding hereby assigns to the Trustee its security
interest in and to any Pledged Assets, its right to receive amounts due or to
become due in respect of any Pledged Assets pursuant to the related Subservicing
Agreement. With respect to any Pledged Asset Loan, Residential Funding shall
cause to be filed in the appropriate recording office a UCC-3 statement giving
notice of the assignment of the related security interest to the Trust Fund and
shall thereafter cause the timely filing of all necessary continuation
statements with regard to such financing statements.

         (e) It is intended that the conveyances by the Depositor to the Trustee
of the Mortgage Loans as provided for in this Section 2.01 be construed as a
sale by the Depositor to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of
the Certificateholders. Further, it is not intended that any such conveyance be
deemed to be a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee to
secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However, in the event that
the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Depositor or of Residential
Funding, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a
security interest in the Mortgage Loans, then it is intended that (a) this
Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of
Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform
Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction; (b) the conveyances
provided for in this Section 2.01 shall be deemed to be (1) a grant by the
Depositor to the Trustee of a security interest in all of the Depositor's right
(including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (A) the Mortgage Loans, including (i)
with respect to each Cooperative Loan, the related Mortgage Note, Security
Agreement, Assignment of Proprietary Lease, Cooperative Stock Certificate and
Cooperative Lease, (ii) with respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a
Cooperative Loan, the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, and (iii) any
insurance policies and all other


                                       48

<PAGE>



documents in the related Mortgage File, (B) all amounts payable pursuant to the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and (C) any and all general
intangibles consisting of, arising from or relating to any of the foregoing, and
all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into
cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation
all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Certificate Account or the
Custodial Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other
property and (2) an assignment by the Depositor to the Trustee of any security
interest in any and all of Residential Funding's right (including the power to
convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, in and to the property described in the foregoing clauses (1)(A), (B)
and (C) granted by Residential Funding to the Depositor pursuant to the
Assignment Agreement; (c) the possession by the Trustee, the Custodian or any
other agent of the Trustee of Mortgage Notes or such other items of property as
constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be
deemed to be "possession by the secured party," or possession by a purchaser or
a person designated by such secured party, for purposes of perfecting the
security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the
States of New York and Minnesota and any other applicable jurisdiction; and (d)
notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or
confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications
to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial
intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose
of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.

         The Depositor and, at the Depositor's direction, Residential Funding
and the Trustee shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such
reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and the other
property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be a
perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be
maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and deliver to the
Trustee not less than 15 days prior to any filing date and, the Trustee shall
forward for filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of
the Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any
original filings necessary under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any
jurisdiction to perfect the Trustee's security interest in or lien on the
Mortgage Loans as evidenced by an Officers' Certificate of the Depositor,
including without limitation (x) continuation statements, and (y) such other
statements as may be occasioned by (1) any change of name of Residential
Funding, the Depositor or the Trustee (such preparation and filing shall be at
the expense of the Trustee, if occasioned by a change in the Trustee's name),
(2) any change of location of the place of business or the chief executive
office of Residential Funding or the Depositor or (3) any transfer of any
interest of Residential Funding or the Depositor in any Mortgage Loan.

         (f) The Depositor agrees that the sale of each Pledged Asset Loan
pursuant to this Agreement will also constitute the assignment, sale,
setting-over, transfer and conveyance to the Trustee, without recourse (but
subject to the Depositor's covenants, representations and warranties
specifically provided herein), of all of the Depositor's obligations and all of
the Depositor's right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now existing
or hereafter acquired as owner of the Mortgage Loan with respect to all money,
securities, security entitlements, accounts, general intangibles, instruments,
documents, certificates of deposit, commodities contracts, and other investment
property and other property of whatever kind or description consisting of,
arising from or related to (i) the Assigned Contracts, (ii) all rights, powers
and remedies of the Depositor as owner


                                       49

<PAGE>



of such Mortgage Loan under or in connection with the Assigned Contracts,
whether arising under the terms of such Assigned Contracts, by statute, at law
or in equity, or otherwise arising out of any default by the Mortgagor under or
in connection with the Assigned Contracts, including all rights to exercise any
election or option or to make any decision or determination or to give or
receive any notice, consent, approval or waiver thereunder, (iii) all security
interests in and lien of the Depositor as owner of such Mortgage Loan in the
Pledged Amounts and all money, securities, security entitlements, accounts,
general intangibles, instruments, documents, certificates of deposit,
commodities contracts, and other investment property and other property of
whatever kind or description and all cash and non-cash proceeds of the sale,
exchange, or redemption of, and all stock or conversion rights, rights to
subscribe, liquidation dividends or preferences, stock dividends, rights to
interest, dividends, earnings, income, rents, issues, profits, interest payments
or other distributions of cash or other property that is credited to the
Custodial Account, (iv) all documents, books and records concerning the
foregoing (including all computer programs, tapes, disks and related items
containing any such information) and (v) all insurance proceeds (including
proceeds from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities
Investor Protection Corporation or any other insurance company) of any of the
foregoing or replacements thereof or substitutions therefor, proceeds of
proceeds and the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of any thereof. The
foregoing transfer, sale, assignment and conveyance does not constitute and is
not intended to result in the creation, or an assumption by the Trustee, of any
obligation of the Depositor, or any other person in connection with the Pledged
Assets or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any
obligation to the Mortgagor, other than as owner of the Mortgage Loan.

         Section 2.02.     Acceptance by Trustee.

         The Trustee acknowledges receipt (or, with respect to Mortgage Loans
subject to a Custodial Agreement, and based solely upon a receipt or
certification executed by the Custodian, receipt by the respective Custodian as
the duly appointed agent of the Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section
2.01(b)(I)(i) and Section 2.01(b)(II)(i), (iii), (v), (vi) and (viii) above
(except that for purposes of such acknowledgment only, a Mortgage Note may be
endorsed in blank and an Assignment of Mortgage may be in blank) and declares
that it, or a Custodian as its agent, and the rights of Residential Funding with
respect to any Pledged Assets assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01,
holds and will hold such documents and the other documents constituting a part
of the Mortgage Files delivered to it, or a Custodian as its agent, in trust for
the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee or
Custodian (such Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement)
agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review each Mortgage File
delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01(b) within 45 days after the Closing
Date to ascertain that all required documents (specifically as set forth in
Section 2.01(b)), have been executed and received, and that such documents
relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, as
supplemented, that have been conveyed to it, and to deliver to the Trustee a
certificate (the "Interim Certification") to the effect that all documents
required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b) above have been executed
and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on
the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A
attached to such Interim Certification. Upon delivery of the Mortgage Files by
the Depositor or the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall acknowledge receipt (or,
with respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Custodial Agreement, and based
solely upon a receipt or certification executed by the Custodian, receipt by the
respective Custodian as the duly appointed agent of the


                                       50

<PAGE>



Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(c) above. If the
Custodian, as the Trustee's agent, finds any document or documents constituting
a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective, the Trustee shall promptly
so notify the Master Servicer and the Depositor; provided, that if the Mortgage
Loan related to such Mortgage File is listed on Schedule A of the Assignment
Agreement, no notification shall be necessary. Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the
Custodial Agreement, the Custodian will notify the Master Servicer, the
Depositor and the Trustee of any such omission or defect found by it in respect
of any Mortgage File held by it. If such omission or defect materially and
adversely affects the interests in the related Mortgage Loan of the
Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the related
Subservicer of such omission or defect and request that such Subservicer correct
or cure such omission or defect within 60 days from the date the Master Servicer
was notified of such omission or defect and, if such Subservicer does not
correct or cure such omission or defect within such period, that such
Subservicer purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at its Purchase
Price, in either case within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was
notified of such omission or defect; provided that if the omission or defect
would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" as defined
in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within
90 days from the date such breach was discovered; and provided further, that no
cure, substitution or repurchase shall be required if such omission or defect is
in respect of a Mortgage Loan listed on Schedule A of the Assignment Agreement.
The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited or caused to be
deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account maintained by it
pursuant to Section 3.07 and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee or any
Custodian, as the case may be, shall release to the Master Servicer the related
Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by the Master Servicer, in each case without
recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Subservicer or its designee, as
the case may be, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and thereafter such
Mortgage Loan shall not be part of the Trust Fund. In furtherance of the
foregoing, if the Subservicer or Residential Funding that repurchases the
Mortgage Loan is not a member of MERS and the Mortgage is registered on the
MERS(R) System, the Master Servicer, at its own expense and without any right of
reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the
Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to such
Subservicer or Residential Funding and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed
from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and
regulations. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Subservicer,
to so cure or purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which a material and adverse
defect in or omission of a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole
remedy respecting such defect or omission available to Certificateholders or the
Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders.

         Section 2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Master
                       Servicer and the Depositor.

         (a) The Master Servicer hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders that:

                  (i) The Master Servicer is a corporation duly organized,
         validly existing and in good standing under the laws governing its
         creation and existence and is or will be in compliance with the laws of
         each state in which any Mortgaged Property is located to the extent


                                       51

<PAGE>



         necessary to ensure the enforceability of each Mortgage Loan in
         accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

                  (ii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
         Master Servicer and its performance and compliance with the terms of
         this Agreement will not violate the Master Servicer's Certificate of
         Incorporation or Bylaws or constitute a material default (or an event
         which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a
         material default) under, or result in the material breach of, any
         material contract, agreement or other instrument to which the Master
         Servicer is a party or which may be applicable to the Master Servicer
         or any of its assets;

                  (iii) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution
         and delivery by the Trustee and the Depositor, constitutes a valid,
         legal and binding obligation of the Master Servicer, enforceable
         against it in accordance with the terms hereof subject to applicable
         bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws
         affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and to general
         principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is
         considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;

                  (iv) The Master Servicer is not in default with respect to any
         order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any
         federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might
         have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the
         condition (financial or other) or operations of the Master Servicer or
         its properties or might have consequences that would materially
         adversely affect its performance hereunder;

                  (v) No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Master
         Servicer's knowledge, threatened against the Master Servicer which
         would prohibit its entering into this Agreement or performing its
         obligations under this Agreement;

                  (vi) The Master Servicer will comply in all material respects
         in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and
         requirements of each insurer under each Required Insurance Policy;

                  (vii) No information, certificate of an officer, statement
         furnished in writing or report delivered to the Depositor, any
         Affiliate of the Depositor or the Trustee by the Master Servicer will,
         to the knowledge of the Master Servicer, contain any untrue statement
         of a material fact or omit a material fact necessary to make the
         information, certificate, statement or report not misleading;

                  (viii) The Master Servicer has examined each existing, and
         will examine each new, Subservicing Agreement and is or will be
         familiar with the terms thereof. The terms of each existing
         Subservicing Agreement and each designated Subservicer are acceptable
         to the Master Servicer and any new Subservicing Agreements will comply
         with the provisions of Section 3.02; and



                                       52

<PAGE>



                  (ix) The Master Servicer is a member of MERS in good standing,
         and will comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures
         of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are
         registered with MERS.

         It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.03(a) shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage
Files to the Trustee or any Custodian. Upon discovery by either the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any Custodian of a breach of any
representation or warranty set forth in this Section 2.03(a) which materially
and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage
Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the
other parties (any Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement).
Within 90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of such breach, the
Master Servicer shall either (i) cure such breach in all material respects or
(ii) to the extent that such breach is with respect to a Mortgage Loan or a
related document, purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the
Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02; provided that if the
omission or defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified
mortgage" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or
repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered.
The obligation of the Master Servicer to cure such breach or to so purchase such
Mortgage Loan shall constitute the sole remedy in respect of a breach of a
representation and warranty set forth in this Section 2.03(a) available to the
Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.

         (b) The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date (or, if otherwise
specified below, as of the date so specified): (i) The information set forth in
Exhibits F-1, F-2, F-3 and F-4 hereto with respect to each Mortgage Loan or the
Mortgage Loans, as the case may be, is true and correct in all material respects
at the respective date or dates which such information is furnished; (ii)
Immediately prior to the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, the
Depositor had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free
and clear of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest (other than
rights to servicing and related compensation) and such conveyance validly
transfers ownership of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee free and clear of any
pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest; and (iii) Each Mortgage Loan
constitutes a qualified mortgage under Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code and
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1). It is understood and agreed that
the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.03(b) shall
survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee or any
Custodian. Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or any Custodian of a breach of any of the representations and
warranties set forth in this Section 2.03(b) which materially and adversely
affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties
(any Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that in the event of a breach of the representation and warranty set
forth in Section 2.03(b)(iii), the party discovering such breach shall give such
notice within five days of discovery. Within 90 days of its discovery or its
receipt of notice of breach, the Depositor shall either (i) cure such breach in
all material respects or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at
the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02; provided that
the Depositor shall have the option to substitute a Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution occurs within
two years following the Closing Date; provided that if the omission or defect
would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" as defined
in


                                       53

<PAGE>



Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure, substitution or repurchase must
occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered. Any such
substitution shall be effected by the Depositor under the same terms and
conditions as provided in Section 2.04 for substitutions by Residential Funding.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Depositor to cure such
breach or to so purchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan as to which such a
breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy
respecting such breach available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositor
shall not be required to cure breaches or purchase or substitute for Mortgage
Loans as provided in this Section 2.03(b) if the substance of the breach of a
representation set forth above also constitutes fraud in the origination of the
Mortgage Loan.

         Section 2.04.   Representations and Warranties of Residential Funding.

         The Depositor, as assignee of Residential Funding under the Assignment
Agreement, hereby assigns to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders all of its right, title and interest in respect of the
Assignment Agreement applicable to a Mortgage Loan. Insofar as the Assignment
Agreement relates to the representations and warranties made by Residential
Funding in respect of such Mortgage Loan and any remedies provided thereunder
for any breach of such representations and warranties, such right, title and
interest may be enforced by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders.

         Upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee
or any Custodian of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made
in the Assignment Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan or of any Repurchase
Event which materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach
shall give prompt written notice to the other parties (any Custodian being so
obligated under a Custodial Agreement). The Master Servicer shall promptly
notify Residential Funding of such breach or Repurchase Event and request that
Residential Funding either (i) cure such breach or Repurchase Event in all
material respects within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was notified
of such breach or Repurchase Event or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the
Trust Fund at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02;
provided that, in the case of a breach or Repurchase Event under the Assignment
Agreement, Residential Funding shall have the option to substitute a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution
occurs within two years following the Closing Date; provided that if the breach
would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" as defined
in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or substitution must occur
within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered. If the breach of
representation and warranty that gave rise to the obligation to repurchase or
substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 5 of the Assignment Agreement was
the representation and warranty set forth in Section 5(B) thereof, then the
Master Servicer shall request that Residential Funding pay to the Trust Fund,
concurrently with and in addition to the remedies provided in the preceding
sentence, an amount equal to any liability, penalty or expense that was actually
incurred and paid out of or on behalf of the Trust Fund, and that directly
resulted from such breach, or if incurred and paid by the Trust Fund thereafter,
concurrently with such payment. In the event that Residential Funding elects to
substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for a Deleted Mortgage
Loan pursuant to this Section 2.04, Residential Funding shall deliver to the
Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage


                                       54

<PAGE>



Loan or Loans, the original Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, an Assignment of the
Mortgage in recordable form, and such other documents and agreements as are
required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as required by Section
2.01. No substitution will be made in any calendar month after the Determination
Date for such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund
and will be retained by the Master Servicer and remitted by the Master Servicer
to Residential Funding on the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the month
of substitution, distributions to the Certificateholders will include the
Monthly Payment due on a Deleted Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter
Residential Funding shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect
of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend or cause to be
amended the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders to
reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall
deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and the Custodian.
Upon such substitution, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be
subject to the terms of this Agreement and the related Subservicing Agreement in
all respects, and Residential Funding shall be deemed to have made the
representations and warranties with respect to the Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan contained in Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement, as of the date of
substitution, and the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in
this Section 2.04, and in Section 2.03 hereof and in Section 4 of the Assignment
Agreement, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated to repurchase or
substitute for any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as to which a Repurchase
Event (as defined in the Assignment Agreement) has occurred pursuant to Section
4 of the Assignment Agreement.

         In connection with the substitution of one or more Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will
determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less
than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans
(in each case after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments
due in the month of substitution that are to be distributed to the
Certificateholders in the month of substitution). Residential Funding shall
deposit the amount of such shortfall into the Custodial Account on the day of
substitution, without any reimbursement therefor. Residential Funding shall give
notice in writing to the Trustee of such event, which notice shall be
accompanied by an Officers' Certificate as to the calculation of such shortfall
and by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause
(a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without
limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section
860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code or (b) any portion of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail
to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.

         It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Residential
Funding to cure such breach or purchase (or in the case of Residential Funding
to substitute for) such Mortgage Loan as to which such a breach has occurred and
is continuing and to make any additional payments required under the Assignment
Agreement in connection with a breach of the representation and warranty in
Section 5(B) thereof shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach
available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. If the Master Servicer is Residential Funding, then the
Trustee shall also have the right to give the notification and require the
purchase or substitution provided for in the second preceding paragraph in the
event of such a


                                       55

<PAGE>



breach of a representation or warranty made by Residential Funding in the
Assignment Agreement. In connection with the purchase of or substitution for any
such Mortgage Loan by Residential Funding, the Trustee shall assign to
Residential Funding all of the right, title and interest in respect of the
Assignment Agreement applicable to such Mortgage Loan.

         Section 2.05. Execution and Authentication of Certificates; Conveyance
                       of Uncertificated REMIC Regular Interests.

         (a) The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans
and the delivery of the Mortgage Files to it, or any Custodian on its behalf,
subject to any exceptions noted, together with the assignment to it of all other
assets included in the Trust Fund, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged.
Concurrently with such delivery and in exchange therefor, the Trustee, pursuant
to the written request of the Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor,
has executed and caused to be authenticated and delivered to or upon the order
of the Depositor the Certificates in authorized denominations which evidence
ownership of the entire Trust Fund.

         (b) In exchange for the REMIC I Regular Interests and, concurrently
with the assignment to the Trustee thereof, pursuant to the written request of
the Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor, the Trustee has executed,
authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Regular
Certificates in authorized denominations evidencing (together with the Class
R-II Certificates) the entire beneficial ownership interest in REMIC II.

                                   ARTICLE III

                 ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

         Section 3.01.     Master Servicer to Act as Servicer.

         (a) The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective Mortgage
Loans, following such procedures as it would employ in its good faith business
judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through
Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do any and all things which it may
deem necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and
administration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master
Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Subservicer is hereby authorized
and empowered by the Trustee when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the
case may be, believes it appropriate in its best judgment, to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee or any of them, any
and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full
release or discharge, or of consent to assumption or modification in connection
with a proposed conveyance, or of assignment of any Mortgage and Mortgage Note
in connection with the repurchase of a Mortgage Loan and all other comparable
instruments, or with respect to the modification or re-recording of a Mortgage
for the purpose of correcting the Mortgage, the subordination of the lien of the
Mortgage in favor of a public utility company or government agency or unit with
powers of eminent domain, the taking of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the
completion of judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, the conveyance of a
Mortgaged Property to the related insurer, the acquisition of any property
acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or the management,
marketing and conveyance of any property acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu
of foreclosure with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the
Mortgaged Properties.

         The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee,
on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the
name of the Subservicer, when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the
case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any
Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from the registration
of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments
of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment
or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the
Trustee and its successors and assigns. Any expenses incurred in connection with
the actions described in the preceding sentence shall be borne by the Master
Servicer in accordance with Section 3.16(c), with no right of reimbursement;
provided, that if, as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to
continue operations in connection with the MERS(R) System, it becomes necessary
to remove any Mortgage Loan from registration on the MERS(R) System and to
arrange for the assignment of the related Mortgages to the Trustee, then any
related expenses shall be reimbursable to the Master Servicer. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, subject to Section 3.07(a), the Master Servicer shall not permit
any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would both constitute a
sale or exchange of such Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Section 1001 of the
Code and any proposed, temporary or final regulations promulgated thereunder
(other than in connection with a proposed conveyance or assumption of such
Mortgage Loan that is


                                       57

<PAGE>



treated as a Principal Prepayment in Full pursuant to Section 3.13(d) hereof)
and cause any of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the
Code.

         The Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer with any powers of
attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master
Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall not be
liable for any action taken by the Master Servicer or any Subservicer pursuant
to such powers of attorney. In servicing and administering any Nonsubserviced
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall, to the extent not inconsistent with
this Agreement, comply with the Program Guide as if it were the originator of
such Mortgage Loan and had retained the servicing rights and obligations in
respect thereof. In connection with servicing and administering the Mortgage
Loans, the Master Servicer and any Affiliate of the Master Servicer (i) may
perform services such as appraisals and brokerage services that are customarily
provided by Persons other than servicers of mortgage loans, and shall be
entitled to reasonable compensation therefor in accordance with Section 3.10 and
(ii) may, at its own discretion and on behalf of the Trustee, obtain credit
information in the form of a "credit score" from a credit repository.

         (b) All costs incurred by the Master Servicer or by Subservicers in
effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the properties subject
to the Mortgage Loans shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly
distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to the amount owing under the
related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so
permit, and such costs shall be recoverable to the extent permitted by Section
3.10(a)(ii).

         (c) The Master Servicer may enter into one or more agreements in
connection with the offering of pass-through certificates evidencing interests
in one or more of the Certificates providing for the payment by the Master
Servicer of amounts received by the Master Servicer as servicing compensation
hereunder and required to cover certain Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the
Mortgage Loans, which payment obligation will thereafter be an obligation of the
Master Servicer hereunder.

         Section 3.02. Subservicing Agreements Between Master Servicer and
                       Subservicers; Enforcement of Subservicers' Obligations.

         (a) The Master Servicer may continue in effect Subservicing Agreements
entered into by Residential Funding and Subservicers prior to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, and may enter into new Subservicing Agreements with
Subservicers, for the servicing and administration of all or some of the
Mortgage Loans. Each Subservicer shall be either (i) an institution the accounts
of which are insured by the FDIC or (ii) another entity that engages in the
business of originating or servicing mortgage loans, and in either case shall be
authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related
Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent
required by applicable law to enable the Subservicer to perform its obligations
hereunder and under the Subservicing Agreement, and in either case shall be a
Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae or HUD approved mortgage servicer. In addition, any
Subservicer of a Mortgage Loan insured by the FHA must be an FHA-approved
servicer, and any Subservicer of a Mortgage Loan guaranteed by the VA must be a
VA-approved servicer. Each Subservicer of a Mortgage Loan shall be entitled to
receive and retain, as provided in the related Subservicing Agreement and in
Section 3.07, the related Subservicing Fee from payments of interest received on
such Mortgage Loan after payment of all


                                       58

<PAGE>



amounts required to be remitted to the Master Servicer in respect of such
Mortgage Loan. For any Mortgage Loan that is a Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive and retain an amount equal to the
Subservicing Fee from payments of interest. Unless the context otherwise
requires, references in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the
Master Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans include actions taken or to be
taken by a Subservicer on behalf of the Master Servicer. Each Subservicing
Agreement will be upon such terms and conditions as are generally required by,
permitted by or consistent with the Program Guide and are not inconsistent with
this Agreement and as the Master Servicer and the Subservicer have agreed. With
the approval of the Master Servicer, a Subservicer may delegate its servicing
obligations to third- party servicers, but such Subservicer will remain
obligated under the related Subservicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and a
Subservicer may enter into amendments thereto or a different form of
Subservicing Agreement, and the form referred to or included in the Program
Guide is merely provided for information and shall not be deemed to limit in any
respect the discretion of the Master Servicer to modify or enter into different
Subservicing Agreements; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such amendments or
different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of
either this Agreement or the Program Guide in a manner which would materially
and adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders.

         (b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer,
for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall use its best
reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations of each Subservicer under the
related Subservicing Agreement, to the extent that the non-performance of any
such obligation would have a material and adverse effect on a Mortgage Loan,
including, without limitation, the obligation to purchase a Mortgage Loan on
account of defective documentation, as described in Section 2.02, or on account
of a breach of a representation or warranty, as described in Section 2.04. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Subservicing Agreements, as appropriate, and the pursuit of other
appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent
and at such time as the Master Servicer would employ in its good faith business
judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its
own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery
resulting from such enforcement to the extent, if any, that such recovery
exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) from a
specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys fees against the party against
whom such enforcement is directed.

         Section 3.03.     Successor Subservicers.

         The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing
Agreement that may exist in accordance with the terms and conditions of such
Subservicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue of this Agreement;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the event of termination of any Subservicing
Agreement by the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall
either act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loan or enter into a Subservicing
Agreement with a successor Subservicer which will be bound by the terms of the
related Subservicing Agreement. If the Master Servicer or any Affiliate of
Residential Funding acts as servicer, it will not assume liability for the
representations and warranties of the Subservicer which it replaces. If the
Master Servicer enters into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor
Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the
successor Subservicer assume liability for the representations and warranties
made


                                       59

<PAGE>



by the terminated Subservicer in respect of the related Mortgage Loans and, in
the event of any such assumption by the successor Subservicer, the Master
Servicer may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the terminated
Subservicer from liability for such representations and warranties.

         Section 3.04.     Liability of the Master Servicer.

         Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of
this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master
Servicer or a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or
otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Trustee
and Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans
in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without diminution of such
obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or
arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer or the
Depositor and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if
the Master Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a
Subservicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer and nothing contained in
this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

         Section 3.05. No Contractual Relationship Between Subservicer and
                       Trustee or Certificateholders.

         Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other
transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer
in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between
the Subservicer and the Master Servicer alone and the Trustee and
Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims,
rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer in
its capacity as such except as set forth in Section 3.06. The foregoing
provision shall not in any way limit a Subservicer's obligation to cure an
omission or defect or to repurchase a Mortgage Loan as referred to in Section
2.02 hereof.

         Section 3.06. Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreements by
                       Trustee.

         (a) In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be
the master servicer (including by reason of an Event of Default), the Trustee,
its designee or its successor shall thereupon assume all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under each Subservicing Agreement that may
have been entered into. The Trustee, its designee or the successor servicer for
the Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer's
interest therein and to have replaced the Master Servicer as a party to the
Subservicing Agreement to the same extent as if the Subservicing Agreement had
been assigned to the assuming party except that the Master Servicer shall not
thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the Subservicing
Agreement.

         (b) The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee but at the
expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and
records relating to each Subservicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then
being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of
each Subservicing Agreement to the assuming party.

         Section 3.07. Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments; Deposits to
                       Custodial Account.

         (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all
payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and
shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and
the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy, follow such
collection procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment and
which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities.
Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i)
waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in
connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the Due Date
for payments due on a Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Program Guide,
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Master Servicer shall first determine that any such
waiver or extension will not impair the coverage of any related Primary
Insurance Policy or materially adversely affect the lien of the related
Mortgage. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make
timely advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the scheduled period in
accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without
modification thereof by reason of such arrangements unless otherwise agreed to
by the Holders of the Classes of Certificates affected thereby; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no such extension shall be made if any advance would be a
Nonrecoverable Advance. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer may also waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent
to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner
grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Master Servicer's determination such
waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to
the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated
Realized Loss that might result absent such action), PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Master Servicer may not modify materially or permit any Subservicer to modify
any Mortgage Loan, including without limitation any modification that would
change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of any principal or interest
(unless in connection with the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or
except in connection with prepayments to the extent that such reamortization is
not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loan), capitalize any amounts
owing on the Mortgage Loan by adding such amount to the outstanding principal
balance of the Mortgage Loan, or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage
Loan, unless such Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master
Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable. For purposes of delinquency
calculations, any capitalized Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to be current as of
the date of the related Servicing Modification. No such modification shall
reduce the Mortgage Rate (A) below one-half of the Mortgage Rate as in effect on
the Cut-off Date or (B) below the sum of the rates at which the Servicing Fee,
the Subservicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loan accrue. The final
maturity date for any Mortgage Loan shall not be extended beyond the Maturity
Date. Also, the Stated Principal Balance of all Reportable Modified Mortgage
Loans subject to Servicing Modifications (measured at the time of the Servicing
Modification and after giving effect to any Servicing Modification) can be no
more than five percent of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans, unless such limit is increased from time to time with the
consent of the Rating Agencies. In addition, any amounts owing on a Mortgage
Loan added to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan must be
fully amortized over the term of such Mortgage Loan, and such amounts may be
added to the outstanding principal balance of a Mortgage Loan only once during
the life of such Mortgage Loan. Also, the addition of such amounts described in
the preceding sentence shall be implemented in accordance with the Program Guide
and may be implemented only by Subservicers that have been


                                       61

<PAGE>



approved by the Master Servicer for such purpose. In connection with any
Curtailment of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, to the extent not
inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Note and local law and practice, may
permit the Mortgage Loan to be re-amortized such that the Monthly Payment is
recalculated as an amount that will fully amortize the remaining Stated
Principal Amount thereof by the original Maturity Date based on the original
Mortgage Rate; provided, that such reamortization shall not be permitted if it
would constitute a reissuance of the Mortgage Loan for federal income tax
purposes.

         (b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Custodial
Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a
daily basis, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following
payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect
of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of
principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date):

         (i) All payments on account of principal, including Principal
Prepayments made by Mortgagors on the Mortgage Loans and the principal component
of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an
REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;

         (ii) All payments on account of interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate
on the Mortgage Loans, including the interest component of any Subservicer
Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for
which an REO Disposition has occurred;

         (iii) Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation
Proceeds (net of any related expenses of the Subservicer);

         (iv) All proceeds of any Mortgage Loans purchased pursuant to Section
2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 4.07 and all amounts required to be deposited in connection
with the substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 2.03 or 2.04;

         (v) Any amounts received by the Master Servicer in respect of Pledged
Assets; and

         (vi) Any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.07(c)
or 3.21.

         The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall
be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, payments on the Mortgage Loans which are not part
of the Trust Fund (consisting of payments in respect of principal and interest
on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date) and payments or
collections consisting of prepayment charges or late payment charges or
assumption fees may but need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the
Custodial Account. In the event any amount not required to be deposited in the
Custodial Account is so deposited, the Master Servicer may at any time withdraw
such amount from the Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. The Custodial Account may contain funds that belong to one or
more trust funds created for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series
and may contain other funds respecting payments on mortgage loans belonging to
the Master Servicer or serviced or master serviced by it on behalf of others.
Notwithstanding such commingling of funds, the Master Servicer shall keep
records that


                                       62

<PAGE>



accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Custodial Account that have been
identified by it as being attributable to the Mortgage Loans. With respect to
Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, REO Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries
and the proceeds of the purchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Sections 2.02,
2.03, 2.04 and 4.07 received in any calendar month, the Master Servicer may
elect to treat such amounts as included in the related Available Distribution
Amount for the Distribution Date in the month of receipt, but is not obligated
to do so. If the Master Servicer so elects, such amounts will be deemed to have
been received (and any related Realized Loss shall be deemed to have occurred)
on the last day of the month prior to the receipt thereof.

         (c) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to cause the
institution maintaining the Custodial Account to invest the funds in the
Custodial Account attributable to the Mortgage Loans in Permitted Investments
which shall mature not later than the Certificate Account Deposit Date next
following the date of such investment (with the exception of the Amount Held for
Future Distribution) and which shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their
maturities. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for
the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and
shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any
losses incurred in respect of any such investments attributable to the
investment of amounts in respect of the Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the
Custodial Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds immediately as
realized.

         (d) The Master Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee and
the Depositor of any change in the location of the Custodial Account and the
location of the Certificate Account prior to the use thereof.

         Section 3.08.     Subservicing Accounts; Servicing Accounts.

         (a) In those cases where a Subservicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause the
Subservicer, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to establish and maintain
one or more Subservicing Accounts which shall be an Eligible Account or, if such
account is not an Eligible Account, shall generally satisfy the requirements of
the Program Guide and be otherwise acceptable to the Master Servicer and each
Rating Agency. The Subservicer will be required thereby to deposit into the
Subservicing Account on a daily basis all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by
the Subservicer, less its Subservicing Fees and unreimbursed advances and
expenses, to the extent permitted by the Subservicing Agreement. If the
Subservicing Account is not an Eligible Account, the Master Servicer shall be
deemed to have received such monies upon receipt thereof by the Subservicer. The
Subservicer shall not be required to deposit in the Subservicing Account
payments or collections consisting of prepayment charges or late charges or
assumption fees. On or before the date specified in the Program Guide, but in no
event later than the Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall cause the
Subservicer, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to remit to the Master
Servicer for deposit in the Custodial Account all funds held in the Subservicing
Account with respect to each Mortgage Loan serviced by such Subservicer that are
required to be remitted to the Master Servicer. The Subservicer will also be
required, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to advance on such scheduled
date of remittance amounts equal to any scheduled monthly installments of
principal and interest less its Subservicing Fees on any Mortgage Loans for
which payment was not received by the Subservicer. This obligation to advance
with respect to each Mortgage Loan will continue up to


                                       63

<PAGE>



and including the first of the month following the date on which the related
Mortgaged Property is sold at a foreclosure sale or is acquired by the Trust
Fund by deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. All such advances received by
the Master Servicer shall be deposited promptly by it in the Custodial Account.

         (b) The Subservicer may also be required, pursuant to the Subservicing
Agreement, to remit to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Custodial Account
interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net Mortgage Rate plus the
rate per annum at which the Servicing Fee accrues in the case of a Modified
Mortgage Loan) on any Curtailment received by such Subservicer in respect of a
Mortgage Loan from the related Mortgagor during any month that is to be applied
by the Subservicer to reduce the unpaid principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan as of the first day of such month, from the date of application of
such Curtailment to the first day of the following month. Any amounts paid by a
Subservicer pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be for the benefit of the
Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and shall be subject to its
withdrawal or order from time to time pursuant to Sections 3.10(a)(iv) and (v).

         (c) In addition to the Custodial Account and the Certificate Account,
the Master Servicer shall for any Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, and shall cause
the Subservicers for Subserviced Mortgage Loans to, establish and maintain one
or more Servicing Accounts and deposit and retain therein all collections from
the Mortgagors (or advances from Subservicers) for the payment of taxes,
assessments, hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if
applicable, or comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Each
Servicing Account shall satisfy the requirements for a Subservicing Account and,
to the extent permitted by the Program Guide or as is otherwise acceptable to
the Master Servicer, may also function as a Subservicing Account. Withdrawals of
amounts related to the Mortgage Loans from the Servicing Accounts may be made
only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums,
Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, or comparable items, to
reimburse the Master Servicer or Subservicer out of related collections for any
payments made pursuant to Sections 3.11 (with respect to the Primary Insurance
Policy) and 3.12(a) (with respect to hazard insurance), to refund to any
Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages, to pay interest, if
required, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account or to clear and
terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 9.01 or in accordance with the Program Guide. As part of
its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall, and the Subservicers will,
pursuant to the Subservicing Agreements, be required to pay to the Mortgagors
interest on funds in this account to the extent required by law.

         (d) The Master Servicer shall advance the payments referred to in the
preceding subsection that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors or advanced by
the Subservicers on the date when the tax, premium or other cost for which such
payment is intended is due, but the Master Servicer shall be required so to
advance only to the extent that such advances, in the good faith judgment of the
Master Servicer, will be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of Insurance
Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise.

         Section 3.09. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding
                       the Mortgage Loans.



                                       64

         In the event that compliance with this Section 3.09 shall make any
Class of Certificates legal for investment by federally insured savings and loan
associations, the Master Servicer shall provide, or cause the Subservicers to
provide, to the Trustee, the Office of Thrift Supervision or the FDIC and the
supervisory agents and examiners thereof access to the documentation regarding
the Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift
Supervision, such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable
request and during normal business hours at the offices designated by the Master
Servicer. The Master Servicer shall permit such representatives to photocopy any
such documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge
reasonably approximating the cost of such photocopying to the Master Servicer.

         Section 3.10.     Permitted Withdrawals from the Custodial Account.

         (a) The Master Servicer may, from time to time as provided herein, make
withdrawals from the Custodial Account of amounts on deposit therein pursuant to
Section 3.07 that are attributable to the Mortgage Loans for the following
purposes:

                  (i) to remit to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate
         Account the amounts and in the manner provided for in Section 4.01;

                  (ii) to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for
         previously unreimbursed Advances, Servicing Advances or expenses made
         pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.08, 3.12(a), 3.14 and 4.04 or otherwise
         reimbursable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, such withdrawal
         right being limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loans
         (including, for this purpose, REO Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds,
         Liquidation Proceeds and proceeds from the purchase of a Mortgage Loan
         pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 4.07) which represent (A) Late
         Collections of Monthly Payments for which any such advance was made in
         the case of Subservicer Advances or Advances pursuant to Section 4.04
         and (B) late recoveries of the payments for which such advances were
         made in the case of Servicing Advances;

                  (iii) to pay to itself or the related Subservicer (if not
         previously retained by such Subservicer) out of each payment received
         by the Master Servicer on account of interest on a Mortgage Loan as
         contemplated by Sections 3.14 and 3.16, an amount equal to that
         remaining portion of any such payment as to interest (but not in excess
         of the Servicing Fee and the Subservicing Fee, if not previously
         retained) which, when deducted, will result in the remaining amount of
         such interest being interest at a rate per annum equal to the Net
         Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified
         Mortgage Loan) on the amount specified in the amortization schedule of
         the related Mortgage Loan as the principal balance thereof at the
         beginning of the period respecting which such interest was paid after
         giving effect to any previous Curtailments;

                  (iv) to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any
         interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the
         Custodial Account that it is entitled to withdraw pursuant to Section
         3.07(c);



                                       65

<PAGE>



                  (v) to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any
         Foreclosure Profits, and any amounts remitted by Subservicers as
         interest in respect of Curtailments pursuant to Section 3.08(b);

                  (vi) to pay to itself, a Subservicer, Residential Funding, the
         Depositor or any other appropriate Person, as the case may be, with
         respect to each Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof
         that has been purchased or otherwise transferred pursuant to Section
         2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 3.23, 4.07 or 9.01, all amounts received thereon and
         not required to be distributed to Certificateholders as of the date on
         which the related Stated Principal Balance or Purchase Price is
         determined;

                  (vii) to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for any
         Nonrecoverable Advance or Advances in the manner and to the extent
         provided in subsection (c) below, any Advance or Servicing Advance made
         in connection with a modification of a Mortgage Loan that is in default
         or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, default is reasonably
         foreseeable pursuant to Section 3.07(a), to the extent the amount of
         the Advance or Servicing Advance was added to the Stated Principal
         Balance of the Mortgage Loan in the preceding calendar month;

                  (viii) to reimburse itself or the Depositor for expenses
         incurred by and reimbursable to it or the Depositor pursuant to Section
         3.14(c), 6.03, 10.01 or otherwise;

                  (ix) to reimburse itself for amounts expended by it (a)
         pursuant to Section 3.14 in good faith in connection with the
         restoration of property damaged by an Uninsured Cause, and (b) in
         connection with the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan or disposition of an
         REO Property to the extent not otherwise reimbursed pursuant to clause
         (ii) or (viii) above; and

                  (x) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Custodial Account
         that was not required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.07,
         including any payoff fees or penalties or any other additional amounts
         payable to the Master Servicer or Subservicer pursuant to the terms of
         the Mortgage Note.

         (b) Since, in connection with withdrawals pursuant to clauses (ii),
(iii), (v) and (vi), the Master Servicer's entitlement thereto is limited to
collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, the Master
Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by
Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the
Custodial Account pursuant to such clauses.

         (c) The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimburse itself or the
related Subservicer for any advance made in respect of a Mortgage Loan that the
Master Servicer determines to be a Nonrecoverable Advance by withdrawal from the
Custodial Account of amounts on deposit therein attributable to the Mortgage
Loans on any Certificate Account Deposit Date succeeding the date of such
determination. Such right of reimbursement in respect of a Nonrecoverable
Advance relating to an Advance pursuant to Section 4.04 on any such Certificate
Account Deposit Date shall be limited to an amount not exceeding the portion of
such advance previously paid to Certificateholders (and not theretofore
reimbursed to the Master Servicer or the related Subservicer).

         Section 3.11.     Maintenance of Primary Insurance Coverage.

         (a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Subservicer to
take, any action which would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary
Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer
or Subservicer, would have been covered thereunder. To the extent coverage is
available, the Master Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in full force and
effect each such Primary Insurance Policy until the principal balance of the
related Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property is reduced to 80% or less
of the Appraised Value at origination in the case of such a Mortgage Loan having
a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of 80%, provided that such
Primary Insurance Policy was in place as of the Cut-off Date and the Master
Servicer had knowledge of such Primary Insurance Policy. The Master Servicer
shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy applicable
to a Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, or consent to any Subservicer canceling or
refusing to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy applicable to a Mortgage
Loan subserviced by it, that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of
the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder unless the
replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy is
maintained with an insurer whose claims-paying ability is acceptable to each
Rating Agency for mortgage pass-through certificates having a rating equal to or
better than the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to the
Certificates as of the Closing Date by such Rating Agency.

         (b) In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of
the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present or to cause the
related Subservicer to present, on behalf of the Master Servicer, the
Subservicer, if any, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer
under any Primary Insurance Policies, in a timely manner in accordance with such
policies, and, in this regard, to take or cause to be taken such reasonable
action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance
Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 3.07, any
Insurance Proceeds collected by or remitted to the Master Servicer under any
Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject
to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10.

         Section 3.12.     Maintenance of Fire Insurance and Omissions and
                           Fidelity Coverage.

         (a) The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage
Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan) fire insurance with extended coverage in an
amount which is equal to the lesser of the principal balance owing on such
Mortgage Loan (together with the principal balance of any mortgage loan secured
by a lien that is senior to the Mortgage Loan) or 100 percent of the insurable
value of the improvements; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such coverage may not be less
than the minimum amount required to fully compensate for any loss or damage on a
replacement cost basis. To the extent it may do so without breaching the related
Subservicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall replace any Subservicer that
does not cause such insurance, to the extent it is available, to be maintained.
The Master Servicer shall also cause to be maintained on property acquired upon
foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan (other than a
Cooperative Loan), fire insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is
at least equal to the amount necessary to avoid the application of any
co-insurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy. Pursuant
to Section 3.07, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any such
policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the
related Mortgaged Property or


                                       67

<PAGE>



property thus acquired or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with
the Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures) shall be deposited in the
Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10. Any cost
incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for
the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added
to the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of
the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the Master
Servicer out of related late payments by the Mortgagor or out of Insurance
Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.10. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be
required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of a
Mortgage Loan other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.
Whenever the improvements securing a Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative
Loan) are located at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan in a
federally designated special flood hazard area, the Master Servicer shall cause
flood insurance (to the extent available) to be maintained in respect thereof.
Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount
required to compensate for any loss or damage to the Mortgaged Property on a
replacement cost basis and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available
for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program
(assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is
participating in such program).In the event that the Master Servicer shall
obtain and maintain a blanket fire insurance policy with extended coverage
insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall
conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the
first sentence of this Section 3.12(a), it being understood and agreed that such
policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer shall,
in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged
Property a policy complying with the first sentence of this Section 3.12(a) and
there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy,
deposit in the Certificate Account the amount not otherwise payable under the
blanket policy because of such deductible clause. Any such deposit by the Master
Servicer shall be made on the Certificate Account Deposit Date next preceding
the Distribution Date which occurs in the month following the month in which
payments under any such policy would have been deposited in the Custodial
Account. In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the
Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the
Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy.

         (b) The Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense
and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement a
blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy covering the
Master Servicer's officers and employees and other persons acting on behalf of
the Master Servicer in connection with its activities under this Agreement. The
amount of coverage shall be at least equal to the coverage that would be
required by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, whichever is greater, with respect to the
Master Servicer if the Master Servicer were servicing and administering the
Mortgage Loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. In the event that any such bond or
policy ceases to be in effect, the Master Servicer shall obtain a comparable
replacement bond or policy from an issuer or insurer, as the case may be,
meeting the requirements, if any, of the Program Guide and acceptable to the
Depositor. Coverage of the Master Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an
Affiliate of the Master Servicer and providing the coverage required by this
Section 3.12(b) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.12(b).

         Section 3.13. Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption and
                       Modification Agreements; Certain Assignments.

         (a) When any Mortgaged Property is conveyed by the Mortgagor, the
Master Servicer or Subservicer, to the extent it has knowledge of such
conveyance, shall enforce any due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note
or Mortgage, to the extent permitted under applicable law and governmental
regulations, but only to the extent that such enforcement will not adversely
affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required Insurance Policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be
in default under this Section 3.13(a) by reason of any transfer or assumption
which the Master Servicer is restricted by law from preventing; and (ii) if the
Master Servicer determines that it is reasonably likely that any Mortgagor will
bring, or if any Mortgagor does bring, legal action to declare invalid or
otherwise avoid enforcement of a due-on- sale clause contained in any Mortgage
Note or Mortgage, the Master Servicer shall not be required to enforce the
due-on-sale clause or to contest such action.

         (b) Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale
clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.13(a), in any case in which a
Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such Person
is to enter into an assumption or modification agreement or supplement to the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage which requires the signature of the Trustee, or if an
instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required releasing the Mortgagor
from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer is authorized, subject
to the requirements of the sentence next following, to execute and deliver, on
behalf of the Trustee, the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the
Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and such modification agreement or
supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or other instruments as are
reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage
or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws regarding assumptions or the
transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such Person; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, none of
such terms and requirements shall both constitute a "significant modification"
effecting an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under the Code (or
final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and
cause any of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as REMICs under the Code or
the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after
the startup date under the REMIC Provisions. The Master Servicer shall execute
and deliver such documents only if it reasonably determines that (i) its
execution and delivery thereof will not conflict with or violate any terms of
this Agreement or cause the unpaid balance and interest on the Mortgage Loan to
be uncollectible in whole or in part, (ii) any required consents of insurers
under any Required Insurance Policies have been obtained and (iii) subsequent to
the closing of the transaction involving the assumption or transfer (A) the
Mortgage Loan will continue to be secured by a first mortgage lien (or junior
lien of the same priority in relation to any senior mortgage loan, with respect
to any Mortgage Loan secured by a junior Mortgage) pursuant to the terms of the
Mortgage, (B) such transaction will not adversely affect the coverage under any
Required Insurance Policies, (C) the Mortgage Loan will fully amortize over the
remaining term thereof, (D) no material term of the Mortgage Loan (including the
interest rate on the Mortgage Loan) will be altered nor will the term of the
Mortgage Loan be changed and (E) if the seller/transferor of the Mortgaged
Property is to be released from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the
buyer/transferee of the Mortgaged Property would be qualified to assume the
Mortgage Loan based on generally comparable credit quality and such release will
not (based on the Master Servicer's or Subservicer's good faith determination)
adversely affect the collectability of the Mortgage Loan.


                                       69

<PAGE>



Upon receipt of appropriate instructions from the Master Servicer in accordance
with the foregoing, the Trustee shall execute any necessary instruments for such
assumption or substitution of liability as directed by the Master Servicer. Upon
the closing of the transactions contemplated by such documents, the Master
Servicer shall cause the originals or true and correct copies of the assumption
agreement, the release (if any), or the modification or supplement to the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian and
deposited with the Mortgage File for such Mortgage Loan. Any fee collected by
the Master Servicer or such related Subservicer for entering into an assumption
or substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer
or such Subservicer as additional servicing compensation.

         (c) The Master Servicer or the related Subservicer, as the case may be,
shall be entitled to approve a request from a Mortgagor for a partial release of
the related Mortgaged Property, the granting of an easement thereon in favor of
another Person, any alteration or demolition of the related Mortgaged Property
(or, with respect to a Cooperative Loan, the related Cooperative Apartment)
without any right of reimbursement or other similar matters if it has
determined, exercising its good faith business judgment in the same manner as it
would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that the security for,
and the timely and full collectability of, such Mortgage Loan would not be
adversely affected thereby and that each of REMIC I or REMIC II would continue
to qualify as a REMIC under the Code as a result thereof and that no tax on
"prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after the startup day would be
imposed on any of REMIC I or REMIC II as a result thereof. Any fee collected by
the Master Servicer or the related Subservicer for processing such a request
will be retained by the Master Servicer or such Subservicer as additional
servicing compensation.

         (d) Subject to any other applicable terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Trustee and Master Servicer shall be entitled to approve an
assignment in lieu of satisfaction with respect to any Mortgage Loan, provided
the obligee with respect to such Mortgage Loan following such proposed
assignment provides the Trustee and Master Servicer with a "Lender Certification
for Assignment of Mortgage Loan" in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and Master Servicer, providing
the following: (i) that the Mortgage Loan is secured by Mortgaged Property
located in a jurisdiction in which an assignment in lieu of satisfaction is
required to preserve lien priority, minimize or avoid mortgage recording taxes
or otherwise comply with, or facilitate a refinancing under, the laws of such
jurisdiction; (ii) that the substance of the assignment is, and is intended to
be, a refinancing of such Mortgage Loan and that the form of the transaction is
solely to comply with, or facilitate the transaction under, such local laws;
(iii) that the Mortgage Loan following the proposed assignment will have a rate
of interest at least 0.25 percent below or above the rate of interest on such
Mortgage Loan prior to such proposed assignment; and (iv) that such assignment
is at the request of the borrower under the related Mortgage Loan. Upon approval
of an assignment in lieu of satisfaction with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer shall receive cash in an amount equal to the unpaid principal
balance of and accrued interest on such Mortgage Loan and the Master Servicer
shall treat such amount as a Principal Prepayment in Full with respect to such
Mortgage Loan for all purposes hereof.

         Section 3.14.     Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.



                                       70

<PAGE>



         (a) The Master Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of properties
securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as
to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent
payments pursuant to Section 3.07. Alternatively, the Master Servicer may take
other actions in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan, which may include (i)
accepting a short sale (a payoff of the Mortgage Loan for an amount less than
the total amount contractually owed in order to facilitate a sale of the
Mortgaged Property by the Mortgagor) or permitting a short refinancing (a payoff
of the Mortgage Loan for an amount less than the total amount contractually owed
in order to facilitate refinancing transactions by the Mortgagor not involving a
sale of the Mortgaged Property), (ii) arranging for a repayment plan or (iii)
agreeing to a modification in accordance with Section 3.07. In connection with
such foreclosure or other conversion or action, the Master Servicer shall,
consistent with Section 3.11, follow such practices and procedures as it shall
deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its general
mortgage servicing activities and as shall be required or permitted by the
Program Guide; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be liable in any
respect hereunder if the Master Servicer is acting in connection with any such
foreclosure or other conversion or action in a manner that is consistent with
the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer, however, shall not be
required to expend its own funds or incur other reimbursable charges in
connection with any foreclosure, or attempted foreclosure which is not
completed, or towards the correction of any default on a related senior mortgage
loan, or towards the restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i)
that such restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of
liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to Holders of Certificates of one or more
Classes after reimbursement to itself for such expenses or charges and (ii) that
such expenses and charges will be recoverable to it through Liquidation
Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, or REO Proceeds (respecting which it shall have
priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to
Section 3.10, whether or not such expenses and charges are actually recoverable
from related Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or REO Proceeds). In the
event of such a determination by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section
3.14(a), the Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of its funds so
expended pursuant to Section 3.10. In addition, the Master Servicer may pursue
any remedies that may be available in connection with a breach of a
representation and warranty with respect to any such Mortgage Loan in accordance
with Sections 2.03 and 2.04. However, the Master Servicer is not required to
continue to pursue both foreclosure (or similar remedies) with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and remedies in connection with a breach of a representation and
warranty if the Master Servicer determines in its reasonable discretion that one
such remedy is more likely to result in a greater recovery as to the Mortgage
Loan. Upon the occurrence of a Cash Liquidation or REO Disposition, following
the deposit in the Custodial Account of all Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation
Proceeds and other payments and recoveries referred to in the definition of
"Cash Liquidation" or "REO Disposition," as applicable, upon receipt by the
Trustee of written notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer,
the Trustee or any Custodian, as the case may be, shall release to the Master
Servicer the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver
such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Master Servicer, in
each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Master Servicer
or its designee, as the case may be, the related Mortgage Loan, and thereafter
such Mortgage Loan shall not be part of the Trust Fund. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, in the Master Servicer's
sole discretion with respect to any defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property as
to either of the following provisions, (i) a Cash Liquidation or REO Disposition
may be deemed to have occurred if substantially all amounts expected by the
Master Servicer to be


                                       71

<PAGE>



received in connection with the related defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property
have been received, and (ii) for purposes of determining the amount of any
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, REO Proceeds or other unscheduled
collections or the amount of any Realized Loss, the Master Servicer may take
into account minimal amounts of additional receipts expected to be received or
any estimated additional liquidation expenses expected to be incurred in
connection with the related defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property.

         For so long as the Master Servicer is the Master Servicer under the
Credit Support Pledge Agreement, the Master Servicer shall perform its
obligations under the Credit Support Pledge Agreement in accordance with such
Agreement and in a manner that is in the best interests of the
Certificateholders. Further, the Master Servicer shall use its best reasonable
efforts to realize upon any Pledged Assets for such of the Pledged Asset Loans
as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory
arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to
Section 3.07; provided that the Master Servicer shall not, on behalf of the
Trustee, obtain title to any such Pledged Assets as a result of or in lieu of
the disposition thereof or otherwise; and provided further that (i) the Master
Servicer shall not proceed with respect to such Pledged Assets in any manner
that would impair the ability to recover against the related Mortgaged Property,
and (ii) the Master Servicer shall proceed with any REO Acquisition in a manner
that preserves the ability to apply the proceeds of such Pledged Assets against
amounts owed under the defaulted Mortgage Loan. Any proceeds realized from such
Pledged Assets (other than amounts to be released to the Mortgagor or the
related guarantor in accordance with procedures that the Master Servicer would
follow in servicing loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and
conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note and to the terms and
conditions of any security agreement, guarantee agreement, mortgage or other
agreement governing the disposition of the proceeds of such Pledged Assets)
shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to
Section 3.10. Any other payment received by the Master Servicer in respect of
such Pledged Assets shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10.

         (b) In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired by
the Trust Fund as an REO Property by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee or
to its nominee on behalf of Certificateholders. Notwithstanding any such
acquisition of title and cancellation of the related Mortgage Loan, such REO
Property shall (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) be considered to
be an Outstanding Mortgage Loan held in the Trust Fund until such time as the
REO Property shall be sold. Consistent with the foregoing for purposes of all
calculations hereunder so long as such REO Property shall be considered to be an
Outstanding Mortgage Loan it shall be assumed that, notwithstanding that the
indebtedness evidenced by the related Mortgage Note shall have been discharged,
such Mortgage Note and the related amortization schedule in effect at the time
of any such acquisition of title (after giving effect to any previous
Curtailments and before any adjustment thereto by reason of any bankruptcy or
similar proceeding or any moratorium or similar waiver or grace period) remain
in effect.

         (c) In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund shall dispose of
such REO Property within three full years after the taxable year of its
acquisition by the Trust Fund for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code (or
such shorter period as may be necessary under applicable state (including any
state in which such property is


                                       72

located) law to maintain the status of each of REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC
under applicable state law and avoid taxes resulting from such property failing
to be foreclosure property under applicable state law) or, at the expense of the
Trust Fund, request, more than 60 days before the day on which such grace period
would otherwise expire, an extension of such grace period unless the Master
Servicer obtains for the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee
and the Master Servicer, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of
such REO Property subsequent to such period will not result in the imposition of
taxes on "prohibited transactions" as defined in Section 860F of the Code or
cause any of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC (for federal (or
any applicable State or local) income tax purposes) at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust Fund may continue to hold
such REO Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of
Counsel). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the
Custodial Account for any costs incurred in obtaining such Opinion of Counsel,
as provided in Section 3.10. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or
allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust
Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject REMIC I or REMIC II to the
imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO
Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Section 860G(c) of the Code,
unless the Master Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust
Fund with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

         (d) The proceeds of any Cash Liquidation, REO Disposition or purchase
or repurchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as
well as any recovery (other than Subsequent Recoveries) resulting from a
collection of Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or REO Proceeds, will be
applied in the following order of priority: FIRST, to reimburse the Master
Servicer or the related Subservicer in accordance with Section 3.10(a)(ii);
SECOND, to the Certificateholders to the extent of accrued and unpaid interest
on the Mortgage Loan, and any related REO Imputed Interest, at the Net Mortgage
Rate (or the Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified Mortgage
Loan), to the Due Date in the related Due Period prior to the Distribution Date
on which such amounts are to be distributed; THIRD, to the Certificateholders as
a recovery of principal on the Mortgage Loan (or REO Property) (provided that if
any such Class of Certificates to which such Realized Loss was allocated is no
longer outstanding, such subsequent recovery shall be distributed to the persons
who were the Holders of such Class of Certificates when it was retired); FOURTH,
to all Servicing Fees and Subservicing Fees payable therefrom (and the Master
Servicer and the Subservicer shall have no claims for any deficiencies with
respect to such fees which result from the foregoing allocation); and FIFTH, to
Foreclosure Profits.

         Section 3.15.     Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

         (a) Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or
upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full
will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer
will immediately notify the Trustee (if it holds the related Mortgage File) or
the Custodian by a certification of a Servicing Officer (which certification
shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be
received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in
the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.07 have been or will be so
deposited), substantially in one of the forms attached hereto as Exhibit G


                                       73

<PAGE>



requesting delivery to it of the Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such
certification and request, the Trustee shall promptly release, or cause the
Custodian to release, the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer. The
Master Servicer is authorized to execute and deliver to the Mortgagor the
request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of
mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage, together with
the Mortgage Note with, as appropriate, written evidence of cancellation thereon
and to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS(R) System of such
Mortgage and to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation or of partial or full release, including any applicable UCC
termination statements. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument
of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Custodial
Account or the Certificate Account.

         (b) From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Custodian, with a copy to the Trustee, a certificate of a Servicing Officer
substantially in one of the forms attached as Exhibit G hereto, requesting that
possession of all, or any document constituting part of, the Mortgage File be
released to the Master Servicer and certifying as to the reason for such release
and that such release will not invalidate any insurance coverage provided in
respect of the Mortgage Loan under any Required Insurance Policy. Upon receipt
of the foregoing, the Trustee shall deliver, or cause the Custodian to deliver,
the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master Servicer. The Master
Servicer shall cause each Mortgage File or any document therein so released to
be returned to the Trustee, or the Custodian as agent for the Trustee when the
need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the Mortgage
Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage
Loan have been deposited in the Custodial Account or (ii) the Mortgage File or
such document has been delivered directly or through a Subservicer 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 Master Servicer has delivered directly or through a Subservicer to the
Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and
address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered
and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. In the event of the liquidation of
a Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall deliver the Request for Release with respect
thereto to the Master Servicer upon deposit of the related Liquidation Proceeds
in the Custodial Account.

         (c) The Trustee or the Master Servicer on the Trustee's behalf shall
execute and deliver to the Master Servicer, if necessary, any court pleadings,
requests for trustee's sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or
trustee's sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought
to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to
obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights
provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in
equity. Together with such documents or pleadings (if signed by the Trustee),
the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of a Servicing
Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee
and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and
that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate any
insurance coverage under any Required Insurance Policy or invalidate or
otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a
lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee's sale.

         Section 3.16.     Servicing and Other Compensation; Compensating
                           Interest.

         (a) The Master Servicer, as compensation for its activities hereunder,
shall be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date the amounts provided for
by clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of Section 3.10(a), subject to clause (e)
below. The amount of servicing compensation provided for in such clauses shall
be accounted for on a Mortgage Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis. In the event that
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and REO Proceeds (net of amounts
reimbursable therefrom pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(ii)) in respect of a Cash
Liquidation or REO Disposition exceed the unpaid principal balance of such
Mortgage Loan plus unpaid interest accrued thereon (including REO Imputed
Interest) at a per annum rate equal to the related Net Mortgage Rate (or the
Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified Mortgage Loan), the Master
Servicer shall be entitled to retain therefrom and to pay to itself and/or the
related Subservicer, any Foreclosure Profits and any Servicing Fee or
Subservicing Fee considered to be accrued but unpaid.

         (b) Additional servicing compensation in the form of prepayment
charges, assumption fees, late payment charges, investment income on amounts in
the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or otherwise shall be retained
by the Master Servicer or the Subservicer to the extent provided herein, subject
to clause (e) below.

         (c) The Master Servicer shall be required to pay, or cause to be paid,
all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities
hereunder (including payment of premiums for the Primary Insurance Policies, if
any, to the extent such premiums are not required to be paid by the related
Mortgagors, and the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any Custodian) and
shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided
in Sections 3.10 and 3.14.

         (d) The Master Servicer's right to receive servicing compensation may
not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of
all of its responsibilities and obligations of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement.

         (e) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the amount of servicing
compensation that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive for its
activities hereunder for the period ending on each Distribution Date shall be
reduced (but not below zero) by an amount equal to Compensating Interest (if
any) for such Distribution Date, which amount shall be deposited by the Master
Servicer into the Certificate Account to be included in the Available
Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date. Such reduction shall be applied
during such period as follows: FIRST, to any Servicing Fee or Subservicing Fee
to which the Master Servicer is entitled pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(iii);
SECOND, to any income or gain realized from any investment of funds held in the
Custodial Account or the Certificate Account to which the Master Servicer is
entitled pursuant to Sections 3.07(c) or 4.01(b), respectively; and THIRD, to
any amounts of servicing compensation to which the Master Servicer is entitled
pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(v) or (vi). In making such reduction, the Master
Servicer shall not withdraw from the Custodial Account any such amount
representing all or a portion of the Servicing Fee to which it is entitled
pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(iii); (ii) shall not withdraw from the Custodial
Account or Certificate Account any such amount to which it is entitled pursuant
to Section 3.07(c) or 4.01(b) and (iii) shall not withdraw from the Custodial
Account any such amount of servicing compensation to which it is entitled
pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(v) or (vi). With respect to any Distribution Date,
Compensating Interest derived


                                       75

from Loan Group I shall be used on such Distribution Date (i) to cover any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Group I Loans and (ii) to cover any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Group II Loans, but only to the extent not
covered by Compensating Interest derived from Loan Group II. With respect to any
Distribution Date, Compensating Interest derived from Loan Group II shall be
used on such Distribution Date (i) to cover any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls
on the Group II Loans and (ii) to cover any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on
the Group I Loans, but only to the extent not covered by Compensating Interest
derived from Loan Group I.

         Section 3.17.     Reports to the Trustee and the Depositor.

         Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Master
Servicer shall forward to the Trustee and the Depositor a statement, certified

Loans and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate of

stating, as to each signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the
Master Servicer during the preceding calendar year related to its servicing of
mortgage loans and of its performance under the pooling and servicing
agreements, including this Agreement, has been made under such officers'
supervision, (ii) to the best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review,
the Master Servicer has complied in all material respects with the minimum
servicing standards set forth in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for
Mortgage Bankers and has fulfilled all of its material obligations in all
material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been material
noncompliance with such servicing standards or a default in the fulfillment in
all material respects of any such obligation relating to this Agreement, such
statement shall include a description of such noncompliance or specify each such
default, as the case may be, known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof and (iii) to the best of such officers' knowledge, each Subservicer has
complied in all material respects with the minimum servicing standards set forth
in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers and has fulfilled
all of its material obligations under its Subservicing Agreement in all material

         On or before the earlier of (a) March 31 of each year, beginning with
the first March 31 that occurs at least six months after the Cut-off Date, or
(b) with respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor's annual report
on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations of the Commission, the date on which the Depositor's
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission (or, in each case,
if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the
Master Servicer at its expense shall cause a firm of independent public
accountants which shall be members of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants to furnish a report to the Depositor and the Trustee stating its
opinion that, on the basis of an examination conducted by such firm
substantially in accordance with standards established by the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants, the assertions made pursuant to Section 3.18
regarding compliance with the minimum servicing standards set forth in the
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers during the preceding
calendar year are fairly stated in all material respects, subject to such
exceptions and other qualifications that, in the opinion of such firm, such
accounting standards require it to report. In rendering such statement, such
firm may rely, as to matters relating to the direct servicing of mortgage loans
by Subservicers, upon comparable statements for examinations conducted by
independent public accountants substantially in accordance with standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (rendered
within one year of such statement) with respect to such Subservicers.

the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be
relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by

mature not later than the Business Day next preceding the Distribution Date next

         reduction of the Certificate Principal Balances of any of the Group I,

         60 days or more averaged over the last six months, as a percentage of
         the aggregate outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M
         Certificates and Class B Certificates, is less than 50%.

                  (d) On or after the related Credit Support Depletion Date, all
         priorities relating to distributions as described in Section 4.02(b)
         above in respect of principal among the various classes of Senior
         Certificates (other than the Principal Only Certificates) will be
         disregarded, and (i) an amount equal to the Discount Fraction of the
         principal portion of scheduled payments and unscheduled collections
         received or advanced in respect of the Discount Mortgage Loans in each
         Loan Group will be distributed to the related Class of Principal Only
         Certificates, (ii) the related Senior Principal Distribution Amount
         will be distributed to the related Classes of remaining Senior
         Certificates (other than the Principal Only Certificates) pro rata in

         Balances, and (iii) the amount set forth in Section 4.02(a)(i) will be
         distributed as set forth therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or
         after the Credit Support Depletion Date and after the reduction of the
         Certificate Principal Balances of any of the Group I, Group II, Group
         III or Group IV Senior Certificates to zero, (i) the remaining Senior
         Principal Distribution Amount for such group of Senior Certificates
         will be distributed to the remaining Senior Certificates (other than
         the Principal Only Certificates) pro rata in accordance with their
         respective outstanding Certificate Principal Balances, and (ii) the
         amount of Accrued Certificate Interest on such group of Senior
         Certificates shall be distributed to the remaining Senior Certificates
         (other than the Principal Only Certificates) on a pro rata basis based
         on Accrued Certificate Interest payable on such Certificates with
         respect to such Distribution Date.

         Senior Certificates (other than the Principal Only Certificates) will
         be entitled to no further distributions of principal thereon and the
         related Available Distribution Amount will be paid solely to the

                  (f) In addition to the foregoing distributions, with respect
         to any Subsequent Recoveries, the Master Servicer shall deposit such
         funds into the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.07(b)(iii). If,
         after taking into account such Subsequent Recoveries, the amount of a
         Realized Loss is reduced, the amount of such Subsequent Recoveries will
         be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class
         of Subordinate Certificates with the Highest Priority to which Realized
         Losses, other than Excess Bankruptcy Losses, Excess Fraud Losses,
         Excess Special Hazard Losses and Extraordinary Losses, have been
         allocated, but not by more than the amount of Realized Losses
         previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to Section
         4.05. The amount of any remaining Subsequent Recoveries will be applied
         to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of
         Certificates with the next Lower Priority, up to the amount of such
         Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates
         pursuant to Section 4.05. Any remaining Subsequent Recoveries will in
         turn be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the
         Class of Certificates with the next Lower Priority up to the amount of
         such Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates
         pursuant to Section 4.05, and so on. Holders of such Certificates will
         not be entitled to any payment in respect of Accrued Certificate
         Interest on the amount of such increases for any Interest Accrual
         Period preceding the Distribution Date on which such increase occurs.
         Any such increases shall be applied to the Certificate Principal
         Balance of each Certificate of such Class in accordance with its
         respective Percentage Interest.

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

                  (h) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, if the
         Master Servicer anticipates that a final distribution with respect to
         any Class of Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date,
         the Master Servicer shall, no later than the Determination Date in the
         month of such final distribution, notify the Trustee and the Trustee
         shall, no later than two (2) Business Days after such Determination
         Date, mail on such date to each Holder of such Class of Certificates a
         notice to the effect that: (i) the Trustee anticipates that the final
         distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on
         such Distribution Date but only upon presentation and surrender of such
         Certificates at the office of the Trustee or as otherwise specified
         therein, and (ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from
         and after the end of the related Interest Accrual Period. In the event
         that Certificateholders required to surrender their Certificates
         pursuant to Section 9.01(c) do not surrender their Certificates for
         final cancellation, the Trustee shall cause funds distributable with
         respect to such Certificates to be withdrawn from the Certificate
         Account and credited to a separate escrow account for the benefit of
         such Certificateholders as provided in Section 9.01(d).

Servicer at no additional expense to the Master Servicer. Also, at the request
of a Rating Agency, the Master Servicer shall provide the information relating
to the Reportable Modified Mortgage Loans substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit S to such Rating Agency within a reasonable period of time;
provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be required to provide
such information more than four times in a calendar year to any Rating Agency.

         (b) Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar
year, the Master Servicer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and the
Trustee shall forward, or cause to be forwarded, to each Person who at any time
during the calendar year was the Holder of a Certificate, other than a Class R
Certificate, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (i) and
(ii) of subsection (a) above aggregated for such calendar year or applicable
portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such
obligation of the Master Servicer and Trustee shall be deemed to have been
satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be
provided by the Master Servicer and Trustee pursuant to any requirements of the
Code.

         (c) As soon as reasonably practicable, upon the written request of any
Certificateholder, the Master Servicer shall provide the requesting
Certificateholder with such information as is


                                       89

<PAGE>



necessary and appropriate, in the Master Servicer's sole discretion, for
purposes of satisfying applicable reporting requirements under Rule 144A.

         (d) The Master Servicer shall, on behalf of the Depositor and in
respect of the Trust Fund, sign and cause to be filed with the Commission any
periodic reports required to be filed under the provisions of the Exchange Act,
and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. In connection with
the preparation and filing of such periodic reports, the Trustee shall timely
provide to the Master Servicer (I) a list of Certificateholders as shown on the
Certificate Register as of the end of each calendar year, (II) copies of all
pleadings, other legal process and any other documents relating to any claims,
charges or complaints involving the Trustee, as trustee hereunder, or the Trust
Fund that are received by the Trustee, (III) notice of all matters that, to the
actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, have been submitted to
a vote of the Certificateholders, other than those matters that have been
submitted to a vote of the Certificateholders at the request of the Depositor or
the Master Servicer, and (IV) notice of any failure of the Trustee to make any
distribution to the Certificateholders as required pursuant to this Agreement.
Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall have any liability with
respect to the Master Servicer's failure to properly prepare or file such
periodic reports resulting from or relating to the Master Servicer's inability
or failure to obtain any information not resulting from the Master Servicer's
own negligence or willful misconduct. Any Form 10-K filed with the Commission in
connection with this clause (d) shall include a certification, signed by the
senior officer in charge of the servicing functions of the Master Servicer, in
the form attached as Exhibit R-1 hereto or such other form as may be required or
permitted by the Commission (the "Form 10-K Certification"), in compliance with
Rule 13a-14 and 15d-14 under the Exchange Act and any additional directives of
the Commission. In connection with the Form 10-K Certification, the Trustee
shall provide the Master Servicer with a back-up certification substantially in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit R-2. This Section 4.03(d) may be amended in
accordance with this Agreement without the consent of the Certificateholders.

         Section 4.04.     Distribution of Reports to the Trustee and the
                           Depositor; Advances by the Master Servicer.

         (a) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day next succeeding
each Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall furnish a written statement
(which may be in a mutually agreeable electronic format) to the Trustee, any
Paying Agent and the Depositor (the information in such statement to be made
available to Certificateholders by the Master Servicer on request) (provided
that the Master Servicer will use its best efforts to deliver such written
statement not later than 12:00 p.m. New York time on the second Business Day
prior to the Distribution Date) setting forth (i) the Available Distribution
Amounts, (ii) the amounts required to be withdrawn from the Custodial Account
and deposited into the Certificate Account and Certificate Insurance Account on
the immediately succeeding Certificate Account Deposit Date pursuant to clause
(iii) of Section 4.01(a), (iii) the amount of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls,
and (iv) to the extent required, a report detailing the Stated Principal
Balance, Mortgage Rate, Modified Mortgage Rate, remaining term to maturity and
Monthly Payment for any Modified Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.13. The
determination by the Master Servicer of such amounts shall, in the absence of
obvious error, be presumptively deemed to be correct for all purposes hereunder
and the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon the same without any
independent check or verification.



                                       90

<PAGE>



         (b) On or before 2:00 P.M. New York time on each Certificate Account
Deposit Date, the Master Servicer shall either (i) remit to the Trustee for
deposit in the Certificate Account from its own funds, or funds received
therefor from the Subservicers, an amount equal to the Advances to be made by
the Master Servicer in respect of the related Distribution Date, which shall be
in an aggregate amount equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate amount of Monthly
Payments (with each interest portion thereof adjusted to a per annum rate equal
to the Net Mortgage Rate), less the amount of any related Servicing
Modifications, Debt Service Reductions or reductions in the amount of interest
collectable from the Mortgagor pursuant to the Relief Act or similar legislation
or regulations then in effect, on the Outstanding Mortgage Loans as of the
related Due Date in the related Due Period, which Monthly Payments were due
during the related Due Period and not received as of the close of business as of
the related Determination Date; provided that no Advance shall be made if it
would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, (ii) withdraw from amounts on deposit in the
Custodial Account and deposit in the Certificate Account all or a portion of the
Amount Held for Future Distribution in discharge of any such Advance, or (iii)
make advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the
amount of such Advance. Any portion of the Amount Held for Future Distribution
so used shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Certificate
Account on or before 11:00 A.M. New York time on any future Certificate Account
Deposit Date to the extent that funds attributable to the Mortgage Loans that
are available in the Custodial Account for deposit in the Certificate Account on
such Certificate Account Deposit Date shall be less than payments to
Certificateholders required to be made on the following Distribution Date. The
Master Servicer shall be entitled to use any Advance made by a Subservicer as
described in Section 3.07(b) that has been deposited in the Custodial Account on
or before such Distribution Date as part of the Advance made by the Master
Servicer pursuant to this Section 4.04.

         The determination by the Master Servicer that it has made a
Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance, if made, would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by a certificate of a Servicing
Officer delivered to the Depositor and the Trustee. In the event that the Master
Servicer determines as of the Business Day preceding any Certificate Account
Deposit Date that it will be unable to deposit in the Certificate Account an
amount equal to the Advance required to be made for the immediately succeeding
Distribution Date, it shall give notice to the Trustee of its inability to
advance (such notice may be given by telecopy), not later than 3:00 P.M., New
York time, on such Business Day, specifying the portion of such amount that it
will be unable to deposit. Not later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on the
Certificate Account Deposit Date the Trustee shall, unless by 12:00 Noon, New
York time, on such day the Trustee shall have been notified in writing (by
telecopy) that the Master Servicer shall have directly or indirectly deposited
in the Certificate Account such portion of the amount of the Advance as to which
the Master Servicer shall have given notice pursuant to the preceding sentence,
pursuant to Section 7.01, (a) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the
Master Servicer under this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01 and (b)
assume the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder, including
the obligation to deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to the
Advance for the immediately succeeding Distribution Date. In connection with the
preceding sentence, the Trustee shall deposit all funds it receives pursuant to
this Section 4.04 into the Certificate Account.

         Section 4.05.     Allocation of Realized Losses.



                                       91

<PAGE>



         (a) Prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall
determine the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, that resulted from any
Cash Liquidation, Servicing Modification, Debt Service Reduction, Deficient
Valuation or REO Disposition that occurred during the related Prepayment Period
or, in the case of a Servicing Modification that constitutes a reduction of the
interest rate on a Mortgage Loan, the amount of the reduction in the interest
portion of the Monthly Payment due during the related Due Period. The amount of
each Realized Loss shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate. All Realized
Losses, other than Excess Losses or Cross-Collateralized Special Hazard Losses,
shall be allocated as follows: first, to the Class B-3 Certificates until the
Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; second, to the
Class B-2 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been
reduced to zero; third, to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Class M-3
Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to
zero; fifth, to the Class M-2 Certificates until the Certificate Principal
Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Class M-1 Certificates
until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and,
thereafter, (i) in the case of the Group I Loans, if any such Realized Losses
are on a Discount Mortgage Loan in Loan Group I, to the Class A-I-PO
Certificates in an amount equal to the related Discount Fraction of the
principal portion thereof until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has
been reduced to zero, and the remainder of such Realized Losses on the Discount
Mortgage Loans in Loan Group I and the entire amount of such Realized Losses on
Non-Discount Mortgage Loans in Loan Group I will be allocated among all the
remaining Group I Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-I-PO Certificates)
on a pro rata basis, as described in paragraph (c) below and (ii) in the case of
the Group II Loans, Group III Loans and Group IV Loans, if any such Realized
Losses are on a Discount Mortgage Loan in Loan Group II, Loan Group III or Loan
Group IV, to the Class A-PO Certificates in an amount equal to the related
Discount Fraction of the principal portion thereof until the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, and the remainder of such
Realized Losses on such Discount Mortgage Loans and the entire amount of such
Realized Losses on Non-Discount Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group will be
allocated among all the remaining Classes of related Senior Certificates (other
than the Class A-PO Certificates) on a pro rata basis, as described in paragraph
(c) below.

         (b) Any Excess Losses on Non-Discount Mortgage Loans in a Loan Group
will be allocated among the related Senior Certificates (other than the
Principal Only Certificates) and the Subordinate Certificates, on a pro rata
basis, as described below. The principal portion of such Realized Losses on the
Discount Mortgage Loans in Loan Group I will be allocated to the Class A-I- PO
Certificates in an amount equal to the related Discount Fraction thereof and the
remainder of such Realized Losses on the Discount Mortgage Loans in such Loan
Group and the entire amount of such Realized Losses on Non-Discount Mortgage
Loans in the related Loan Group will be allocated among the Group I Senior
Certificates (other than the Class A-I-PO Certificates) and Subordinate
Certificates, on a pro rata basis, as described in paragraph (c) below. The
principal portion of such Realized Losses on the Discount Mortgage Loans in Loan
Group II, Loan Group III or Loan Group IV will be allocated to the Class A-PO
Certificates in an amount equal to the related Discount Fraction thereof and the
remainder of such Realized Losses on the Discount Mortgage Loans in such Loan
Group and the entire amount of such Realized Losses on Non-Discount Mortgage
Loans in the related Loan Group will be allocated among the remaining Classes of
related Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates) and
Subordinate Certificates, on a pro rata basis, as described in paragraph (c)
below.


                                       92

<PAGE>



         (c) As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss on a "pro rata
basis" among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation
among the various Classes so specified, to each such Class of Certificates on
the basis of their then outstanding Certificate Principal Balances prior to
giving effect to distributions to be made on such Distribution Date in the case
of the principal portion of a Realized Loss or based on the Accrued Certificate
Interest thereon payable on such Distribution Date (without regard to any
Compensating Interest for such Distribution Date) in the case of an interest
portion of a Realized Loss. Except as provided in the following sentence, any
allocation of the principal portion of Realized Losses (other than Debt Service
Reductions) to a Class of Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated, which allocation shall be
deemed to have occurred on such Distribution Date. Any allocation of the
principal portion of Realized Losses (other than Debt Service Reductions) to the
Subordinate Certificates then outstanding with the Lowest Priority shall be made
by operation of the definition of "Certificate Principal Balance" and by
operation of the provisions of Section 4.02(a). Allocations of the interest
portions of Realized Losses to the Subordinate Certificates then outstanding
with the Lowest Priority shall be made in proportion to the amount of Accrued
Certificate Interest and by operation of the definition of "Accrued Certificate
Interest" and by operation of the provisions of Section 4.02(a). Allocations of
the principal portion of Debt Service Reductions shall be made by operation of
the provisions of Section 4.02(a). All Realized Losses and all other losses
allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder will be allocated among the
Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced
thereby; provided that if any Subclasses of the Interest Only Certificates have
been issued pursuant to Section 5.01(c), such Realized Losses and other losses
allocated to the Interest Only Certificates shall be allocated among such
Subclasses in proportion to the respective amounts of Accrued Certificate
Interest payable on such Distribution Date that would have resulted absent such
reductions.

         Section 4.06.     Reports of Foreclosures and Abandonment of Mortgaged
                           Property.

         The Master Servicer or the Subservicers shall file information returns
with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or
business, the reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property
and the informational returns relating to cancellation of indebtedness income
with respect to any Mortgaged Property required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and
6050P of the Code, respectively, and deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate on or before March 31 of each year stating that such reports have
been filed. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the
reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the
Code.

         Section 4.07.     Optional Purchase of Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

         As to any Mortgage Loan which is delinquent in payment by 90 days or
more, the Master Servicer may, at its option, purchase such Mortgage Loan from
the Trustee at the Purchase Price therefor; provided, that any such Mortgage
Loan that becomes 90 days or more delinquent during any given Calendar Quarter
shall only be eligible for purchase pursuant to this Section during the period
beginning on the first Business Day of the following Calendar Quarter, and
ending at the close of business on the second-to-last Business Day of such
following Calendar Quarter. Such option if not exercised shall not thereafter be
reinstated as to any Mortgage Loan, unless the delinquency is cured and the
Mortgage Loan thereafter again becomes delinquent in payment by 90 days or more


                                       93

<PAGE>



in a subsequent Calendar Quarter. If at any time the Master Servicer makes a
payment to the Certificate Account covering the amount of the Purchase Price for
such a Mortgage Loan, and the Master Servicer provides to the Trustee a
certification signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the amount of such
payment has been deposited in the Certificate Account, then the Trustee shall
execute the assignment of such Mortgage Loan at the request of the Master
Servicer without recourse to the Master Servicer which shall succeed to all the
Trustee's right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan, and all
security and documents relative thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment
outright and not for security. The Master Servicer will thereupon own such
Mortgage, and all such security and documents, free of any further obligation to
the Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect thereto.

                                THE CERTIFICATES

         Section 5.01.     The Certificates.

         (a) The Class A, Class M, Class B and Class R Certificates shall be
substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibits A, B, C and D, respectively,
and shall, on original issue, be executed and delivered by the Trustee to the
Certificate Registrar for authentication and delivery to or upon the order of
the Depositor upon receipt by the Trustee or one or more Custodians of the
documents specified in Section 2.01. The Class A and Class M-1 Certificates
shall be issuable in minimum dollar denominations of $25,000 and integral
multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class M-2 and Class M-3 Certificates
shall be issuable in minimum dollar denominations of $250,000 and integral
multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class B Certificates shall be issuable in
minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess
thereof, except that one of each of the Class B Certificates will be issued
evidencing the sum of an authorized denomination thereof plus the remainder of
the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of such class. Each Class of
Class R Certificates shall be issued in registered, certificated form in minimum
percentage interests of 20.00% and integral multiples of 0.01% in excess
thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that one Class R Certificate of each Class will be
issuable to the REMIC Administrator as "tax matters person" pursuant to Section
10.01(c) in a minimum denomination representing a Percentage Interest of not
less than 0.01%.The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of an authorized officer of the Trustee. Certificates
bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time
the proper officers of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Certificate or did not hold such offices at
the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided
for herein executed by the Certificate Registrar by manual signature, and such
certificate upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

         (b) The Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates shall initially
be issued as one or more Certificates registered in the name of the Depository
or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of such Certificates
may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository that agrees
to hold such Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership
Interests therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership
Interests in and to each Class A Certificate and Class M Certificate, through
the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided below, shall
not be entitled to Definitive Certificates in respect of such Ownership
Interests. All transfers by Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership
Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the
procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm
representing such Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall transfer
the Ownership Interests only in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate
Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in
accordance with the Depository's normal procedures.


                                       95

<PAGE>



         The Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Depositor may for all purposes
(including the making of payments due on the respective Classes of Book-Entry
Certificates) deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the
Certificate Owners with respect to the respective Classes of Book-Entry
Certificates for the purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders
hereunder. The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the respective
Classes of Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those established by law
and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Depository Participants
and brokerage firms representing such Certificate Owners. Multiple requests and
directions from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of any Class of Book-
Entry Certificates with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners. The
Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations
of consents from or voting by Certificateholders and shall give notice to the
Depository of such record date. If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in
writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge
its responsibilities as Depository and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a
qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor at its option advises the Trustee in
writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the
Depository, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the
Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of
Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon
surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository,
accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of
transfer, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Neither the
Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be liable for any actions
taken by the Depository or its nominee, including, without limitation, any delay
in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be
performed by the Depositor in connection with the issuance of the Definitive
Certificates pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to be imposed upon
and performed by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall
recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder.

         (c) Each of the Certificates is intended to be a "security" governed by
Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York
and any other applicable jurisdiction, to the extent that any of such laws may
be applicable.

         (d) From time to time the initial Holder of the Interest Only
Certificates, may exchange such Holder's Interest Only Certificates for
Subclasses of Interest Only Certificates to be issued under this Agreement by
delivering a "Request for Exchange" substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit Q executed by an authorized officer, which Subclasses, in the aggregate,
will represent the Uncertificated Class A-I-IO REMIC II Regular Interests
corresponding to the Class A-I-IO Certificates and the Uncertificated Class A-IO
REMIC II Regular Interests corresponding to the Class A-IO Certificates so
surrendered for exchange. Any Subclass so issued shall bear a numerical
designation commencing with Class A-I-IO-1 or Class A-IO-1, as the case may be,
and continuing sequentially thereafter, and will evidence ownership of the
Uncertificated REMIC Regular Interest or Interests specified in writing by such
initial Holder to the Trustee. The Trustee may conclusively, without any
independent verification, rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, the
Holder's determinations of the Uncertificated Class A-I-IO REMIC II Regular
Interests or Uncertificated Class A-IO REMIC II Regular Interests corresponding
to any Subclass, the Initial Notional Amount and the initial Pass-Through Rate
on a Subclass as set forth in such Request for


                                       96

<PAGE>



Exchange and the Trustee shall have no duty to determine if any Uncertificated
Class A-I-IO REMIC II Regular Interest or Uncertificated Class A-IO REMIC II
Regular Interest designated on a Request for Exchange corresponds to a Subclass
which has previously been issued. Each Subclass so issued shall be substantially
in the form set forth in Exhibit A and shall, on original issue, be executed and
delivered by the Trustee to the Certificate Registrar for authentication and
delivery in accordance with Section 5.01(a). Every Certificate presented or
surrendered for exchange by the initial Holder shall (if so required by the
Trustee or the Certificate Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by
a written instrument of transfer attached to such Certificate and shall be
completed to the satisfaction of the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly
executed by, the initial Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing. The Certificates of any Subclass of Class A-I-IO Certificates or Class
A-IO Certificates may be transferred in whole, but not in part, in accordance
with the provisions of Section 5.02.

         Section 5.02.    Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.

         (a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or
agencies to be appointed by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of
Section 8.11 a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration
of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein
provided. The Trustee is initially appointed Certificate Registrar for the
purpose of registering Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates
as herein provided. The Certificate Registrar, or the Trustee, shall provide the
Master Servicer with a certified list of Certificateholders as of each Record
Date prior to the related Determination Date.

         (b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at
any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to
Section 8.11 and, in the case of any Class M, Class B or Class R Certificate,
upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Trustee shall execute
and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of a like
Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.

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

         (d) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Class B
Certificate shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other
disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and any applicable state securities laws
or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. Except as otherwise provided in
this Section 5.02(d), in the event that a transfer of a Class B Certificate is
to be made, (i) unless the Depositor


                                       97

<PAGE>



directs the Trustee otherwise, the Trustee shall require a written Opinion of
Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and
the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption,
describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and
laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the
Master Servicer, and (ii) the Trustee shall require the transferee to execute a
representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto, and the
Trustee shall require the transferor to execute a representation letter,
substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto, each acceptable to and in form
and substance satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee certifying to the
Depositor and the Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which
representation letters shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Trust Fund,
the Depositor or the Master Servicer. In lieu of the requirements set forth in
the preceding sentence, transfers of Class B Certificates may be made in
accordance with this Section 5.02(d) if the prospective transferee of such a
Certificate provides the Trustee and the Master Servicer with an investment
letter substantially in the form of Exhibit N attached hereto, which investment
letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Depositor, or the Master
Servicer, and which investment letter states that, among other things, such
transferee (i) is a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined under Rule 144A,
acting for its own account or the accounts of other "qualified institutional
buyers" as defined under Rule 144A, and (ii) is aware that the proposed
transferor intends to rely on the exemption from registration requirements under
the 1933 Act provided by Rule 144A. The Holder of a Class B Certificate desiring
to effect any transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition shall, and does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer,
sale, pledge or other disposition is not so exempt or is not made in accordance
with such federal and state laws and this Agreement.

         (e) (i) In the case of any Class B or Class R Certificate presented for
registration in the name of any Person, either (i) the Trustee shall require an
Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer to the effect that the purchase
or holding of such Class B or Class R Certificate is permissible under
applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited

(including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code)
in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the
Master Servicer or (ii) the prospective transferee shall be required to provide
the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer with a certification to the
effect set forth in paragraph six of Exhibit I or paragraph three of Exhibit N
(with respect to a Class B Certificate) or in paragraph fourteen of Exhibit H-1
(with respect to a Class R Certificate), which the Trustee may rely upon without
further inquiry or investigation, or such other certifications as the Trustee
may deem desirable or necessary in order to establish that such transferee or
the Person in whose name such registration is requested either (a) is not an
employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the prohibited transaction
provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any Person (including an
insurance company investing its general accounts, an investment manager, a named
fiduciary or a trustee of any such plan) who is using "plan assets" of any such
plan to effect such acquisition (a "Plan Investor") or (b) in the case of a
Class B Certificate, the following conditions are satisfied: (i) such Transferee
is an insurance company, (ii) the source of funds used to purchase

Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60, and (iii) the conditions set forth in Sections I and
III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied (each entity that satisfies this clause
(b), a "Complying Insurance Company").

                  (ii) Any Transferee of a Class M Certificate will be deemed to
have represented by virtue of its purchase or holding of such Certificate (or
interest therein) that either (a) such Transferee is not a Plan Investor, (b) it
has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance on Prohibited
Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 94-29, 59 Fed. Reg. 14674 (March 29, 1994), as
amended by PTE 97-34, 62 Fed. Reg. 39021 (July 21, 1997), PTE 2000-58, 65 Fed.
Reg. 67765 (November 13, 2000), and PTE 2002-41, 67 Fed. Reg. 54487 (August 22,

conditions to the availability of the RFC Exemption including that such
Certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than "BBB-" (or
its equivalent) by Standard & Poor's, Fitch or Moody's or (c) such Transferee is
a Complying Insurance Company.

                  (iii) (A) If any Class M Certificate (or any interest therein)
is acquired or held by any Person that does not satisfy the conditions described
in paragraph (ii) above, then the last preceding Transferee that either (i) is
not a Plan Investor, (ii) acquired such Certificate in compliance with the RFC
Exemption, or (iii) is a Complying Insurance Company shall be restored, to the
extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Certificate Owner

The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for making any payments
due on such Certificate to such preceding Transferee.

                     (B) Any purported Certificate Owner whose acquisition or
holding of any Class M Certificate (or interest therein) was effected in
violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(e) shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Subservicer, and
the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or
expenses incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or holding.

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

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

                  (B) In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership
         Interest in a Class R Certificate, the Trustee shall require delivery
         to it, and shall not register the Transfer of any Class R Certificate

                           (I) an affidavit and agreement (a "Transfer Affidavit
                           and Agreement," in the form attached hereto as
                           Exhibit H-1) from the proposed Transferee, in form
                           and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer,
                           representing and warranting, among other things, that
                           it is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not
                           acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Class R
                           Certificate that is the subject of the proposed
                           Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any
                           Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, that for so
                           long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Class
                           R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted
                           Transferee, and that it has reviewed the provisions
                           of this Section 5.02(f) and agrees to be bound by
                           them, and

                           (II) a certificate, in the form attached hereto as
                           Exhibit H-2, from the Holder wishing to transfer the
                           Class R Certificate, in form and substance
                           satisfactory to the Master Servicer, representing and
                           warranting, among other things, that no purpose of
                           the proposed Transfer is to impede the assessment or
                           collection of tax.

                  (C) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and
         Agreement by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if a
         Responsible Officer of the Trustee who is assigned to this Agreement
         has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted
         Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R
         Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected.

                  (D) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in
         a Class R Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit
         and Agreement from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to
         transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate and (y) not to
         transfer its Ownership Interest unless it provides a certificate to the
         Trustee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H-2.

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

         (ii) The Trustee will register the Transfer of any Class R Certificate
only if it shall have received the Transfer Affidavit and Agreement, a
certificate of the Holder requesting such transfer in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit H-2 and all of such other documents as shall have been reasonably
required by the Trustee as a condition to such registration. Transfers of the
Class R Certificates to Non-United States Persons and Disqualified Organizations
(as defined in Section 860E(e)(5) of the Code) are prohibited.

                  (A) If any Disqualified Organization shall become a holder of
         a Class R Certificate, then the last preceding Permitted Transferee
         shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and
         obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of


                                       100

<PAGE>



         registration of such Transfer of such Class R Certificate. If a
         Non-United States Person shall become a holder of a Class R
         Certificate, then the last preceding United States Person shall be
         restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations
         as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such
         Transfer of such Class R Certificate. If a transfer of a Class R
         Certificate is disregarded pursuant to the provisions of Treasury
         Regulations Section 1.860E-1 or Section 1.860G-3, then the last
         preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent
         permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof
         retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Class
         R Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person
         for any registration of Transfer of a Class R Certificate that is in
         fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(f) or for making any payments
         due on such Certificate to the holder thereof or for taking any other
         action with respect to such holder under the provisions of this
         Agreement.

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

         (iv) The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall make
available, upon written request from the Trustee, all information necessary to
compute any tax imposed

                  (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
                  Class R Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified
                  Organization, including the information regarding "excess
                  inclusions" of such Class R Certificates required to be
                  provided to the Internal Revenue Service and certain Persons
                  as described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860D-1(b)(5)
                  and 1.860E-2(a)(5), and

                  (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real
                  estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership,
                  trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the
                  Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate
                  having as among its record holders at any time any Person who
                  is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for
                  providing such information may be required by the Master
                  Servicer from such Person.

         (v) The provisions of this Section 5.02(f) set forth prior to this
clause (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated, provided that there shall
have been delivered to the Trustee the following:

                  (A) Written notification from each Rating Agency to the effect
                  that the modification, addition to or elimination of such
                  provisions will not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade its
                  then-current ratings, if any, of the Class A Certificates
                  below the lower of the then-current rating or the rating
                  assigned to such Certificates as of the Closing Date by such
                  Rating Agency; and

                  (B) a certificate of the Master Servicer stating that the
                  Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel, in form
                  and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer, to the
                  effect that such modification, addition to or absence of such
                  provisions will not cause any of REMIC I or REMIC II to cease
                  to qualify as a REMIC and will not cause (x) any of REMIC I or
                  REMIC II to be subject to an entity-level tax caused by the
                  Transfer of any Class R Certificate to a Person that is a
                  Disqualified Organization or (y) a Certificateholder or
                  another Person to be subject to a REMIC-related tax caused by
                  the Transfer of a Class R Certificate to a Person that is not
                  a Permitted Transferee.

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

         (h) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be
destroyed by the Certificate Registrar.

         Section 5.03.     Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

         If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate
Registrar, or the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar receive evidence to
their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and
(ii) there is delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that
such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor, Class and Percentage Interest but
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. Upon the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section, the Trustee may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the
Trustee and the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any duplicate
Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and
indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued,
whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any
time.

         Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of
transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to Section 4.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever,
except as and to the extent provided in the definition of "Certificateholder",
and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar nor any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary except as
provided in Section 5.02(f).

         Section 5.05.     Appointment of Paying Agent.

         The Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent for the purpose of making
distributions to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.02. In the event of
any such appointment, on or prior to each Distribution Date the Master Servicer
on behalf of the Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying
Agent a sum sufficient to make the payments to Certificateholders in the amounts
and in the manner provided for in Section 4.02 and 4.03, such sum to be held in
trust for the benefit of Certificateholders. The Trustee shall cause each Paying
Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying
Agent shall agree with the Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all sums
held by it for the payment to Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such
Certificateholders. Any sums so held by such Paying Agent shall be held only in
Eligible Accounts to the extent such sums are not distributed to the
Certificateholders on the date of receipt by such Paying Agent.

                      THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER

         Section 6.01.     Respective Liabilities of the Depositor and the
                           Master Servicer.

         The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and
respectively imposed upon and undertaken by the Depositor and the Master
Servicer herein. By way of illustration and not limitation, the Depositor is not
liable for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, nor is it
obligated by Section 7.01 or 10.01 to assume any obligations of the Master
Servicer or to appoint a designee to assume such obligations, nor is it liable
for any other obligation hereunder that it may, but is not obligated to, assume
unless it elects to assume such obligation in accordance herewith.

         Section 6.02.     Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the
                           Master Servicer; Assignment of Rights and Delegation
                           of Duties by Master Servicer.

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

         (b) Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer may be
merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or
any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer,
shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may
be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the successor or surviving Person to
the Master Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of
Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; and provided further that each Rating Agency's
ratings, if any, of the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates in effect
immediately prior to such merger or consolidation will not be qualified, reduced
or withdrawn as a result thereof (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from
each Rating Agency).

         (c) Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 6.02 and Section 6.04
to the contrary, the Master Servicer may assign its rights and delegate its
duties and obligations under this Agreement; provided that the Person accepting
such assignment or delegation shall be a Person which is qualified to service
mortgage loans on behalf of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, is reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor, is willing to service the
Mortgage Loans and executes and delivers to the Depositor and the Trustee an
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and
the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual
performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or
observed by the Master Servicer under this Agreement; provided further that each
Rating Agency's rating of the Classes of Certificates that have been rated in
effect immediately prior to such


                                       104

<PAGE>



assignment and delegation will not be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as a
result of such assignment and delegation (as evidenced by a letter to such
effect from each Rating Agency). In the case of any such assignment and
delegation, the Master Servicer shall be released from its obligations under
this Agreement, except that the Master Servicer shall remain liable for all
liabilities and obligations incurred by it as Master Servicer hereunder prior to
the satisfaction of the conditions to such assignment and delegation set forth
in the next preceding sentence.

         Section 6.03.     Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master
                           Servicer and Others.

         Neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor any of the directors,
officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be
under any liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any action
taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to
this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this
provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any such
Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the
Master Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie
properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified
by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense
incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the
Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense related to any specific
Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense
shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. Neither the Depositor nor the
Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend
any legal or administrative action, proceeding, hearing or examination that is
not incidental to its respective duties under this Agreement and which in its
opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Depositor or the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such
action, proceeding, hearing or examination that it may deem necessary or
desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties
hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the
legal expenses and costs of such action, proceeding, hearing or examination and
any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of
the Trust Fund, and the Depositor and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to
be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans on
deposit in the Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.10 and, on the
Distribution Date(s) following such reimbursement, the aggregate of such
expenses and costs shall be allocated in reduction of the Accrued Certificate
Interest on each Class entitled thereto in the same manner as if such expenses
and costs constituted a Prepayment Interest Shortfall.

         Section 6.04.     Depositor and Master Servicer Not to Resign.

         Subject to the provisions of Section 6.02, neither the Depositor nor
the Master Servicer shall resign from its respective obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it except upon determination that


                                       105

<PAGE>



its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law. Any such
determination permitting the resignation of the Depositor or the Master Servicer
shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the resigning
party) to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation by the
Master Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer
shall have assumed the Master Servicer's responsibilities and obligations in
accordance with Section 7.02.

                                     DEFAULT

         Section 7.01.     Events of Default.

         Event of Default, wherever used herein, means any one of the following
events (whatever reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be
voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any
judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body):

         (i) the Master Servicer shall fail to distribute or cause to be
distributed to Holders of Certificates of any Class any distribution required to
be made under the terms of the Certificates of such Class and this Agreement
and, in either case, such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 5
days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring such
failure to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the
Trustee or the Depositor or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the
Trustee by the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 25%; or

         (ii) the Master Servicer shall fail to observe or perform in any
material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the
Master Servicer contained in the Certificates of any Class or in this Agreement
and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days (except that
such number of days shall be 15 in the case of a failure to pay the premium for
any Required Insurance Policy) after the date on which written notice of such
failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master
Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the Master Servicer, the
Depositor and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates of any Class
evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less than
25%; or

         (iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or
future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a
conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the
winding- up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the
Master Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force
undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or

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

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



                                       107

<PAGE>



         (vi) the Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee pursuant to Section
4.04(b) that it is unable to deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal
to the Advance.

         If an Event of Default described in clauses (i)-(v) of this Section
shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Event of
Default shall not have been remedied, either the Depositor or the Trustee shall
at the direction of Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the
Voting Rights, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Depositor
if given by the Trustee or to the Trustee if given by the Depositor), terminate
all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement
and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights
as a Certificateholder hereunder. If an Event of Default described in clause
(vi) hereof shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice to the Master Servicer and
the Depositor, immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the
Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder as
provided in Section 4.04(b). On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of
such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder
thereof) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall subject to Section 7.02 pass
to and be vested in the Trustee or the Trustee's designee appointed pursuant to
Section 7.02; and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and
empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as
attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and
to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect
the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and
endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or
otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting
the termination of the Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder,
including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee or its designee for
administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited to
the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or thereafter be received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans. No such termination shall release the Master
Servicer for any liability that it would otherwise have hereunder for any act or
omission prior to the effective time of such termination. Notwithstanding any
termination of the activities of Residential Funding in its capacity as Master
Servicer hereunder, Residential Funding shall be entitled to receive, out of any
late collection of a Monthly Payment on a Mortgage Loan which was due prior to
the notice terminating Residential Funding's rights and obligations as Master
Servicer hereunder and received after such notice, that portion to which
Residential Funding would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 3.10(a)(ii),
(vi) and (vii) as well as its Servicing Fee in respect thereof, and any other
amounts payable to Residential Funding hereunder the entitlement to which arose
prior to the termination of its activities hereunder. Upon the termination of
Residential Funding as Master Servicer hereunder the Depositor shall deliver to
the Trustee as successor Master Servicer a copy of the Program Guide.

         Section 7.02.   Trustee or Depositor to Act; Appointment of Successor.

         (a) On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 7.01 or resigns in accordance with Section 6.04,
the Trustee or, upon notice to the Depositor and with the Depositor's consent
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld) a designee (which meets the standards
set forth below) of the Trustee, shall be the successor in all respects to the
Master Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating


                                       108

<PAGE>



thereto placed on the Master Servicer (except for the responsibilities, duties
and liabilities contained in Sections 2.02 and 2.03(a), excluding the duty to
notify related Subservicers as set forth in such Sections, and its obligations
to deposit amounts in respect of losses incurred prior to such notice or
termination on the investment of funds in the Custodial Account or the
Certificate Account pursuant to Sections 3.07(c) and 4.01(c) by the terms and
provisions hereof); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any failure to perform such duties
or responsibilities caused by the preceding Master Servicer's failure to provide
information required by Section 4.04 shall not be considered a default by the
Trustee hereunder as successor Master Servicer. As compensation therefor, the
Trustee as successor Master Servicer shall be entitled to all funds relating to
the Mortgage Loans which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to charge
to the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account if the Master Servicer had
continued to act hereunder and, in addition, shall be entitled to the income
from any Permitted Investments made with amounts attributable to the Mortgage
Loans held in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account. If the Trustee
has become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 6.04
or Section 7.01, then notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be
unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, appoint, or petition a
court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home
finance institution, which is also a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac-approved mortgage
servicing institution, having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 as the
successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part
of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder.
Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee
shall become successor to the Master Servicer and shall act in such capacity as
hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of
payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the
initial Master Servicer hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Custodian and
such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall
be necessary to effectuate any such succession. The Servicing Fee for any
successor Master Servicer appointed pursuant to this Section 7.02 will be
lowered with respect to those Mortgage Loans, if any, where the Subservicing Fee
accrues at a rate of less than 0.50% per annum in the event that the successor
Master Servicer is not servicing such Mortgage Loans directly and it is
necessary to raise the related Subservicing Fee to a rate of 0.50% per annum in
order to hire a Subservicer with respect to such Mortgage Loans.

         (b) In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master
Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor Master Servicer, including the
Trustee if the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer, shall represent
and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to
comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in
connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with
MERS, in which case the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the
successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to revise its records to reflect the
transfer of servicing to the successor Master Servicer as necessary under MERS'
rules and regulations, or (ii) the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate
with the successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to execute and deliver an
assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to
the Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and other
instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such
Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System to the
successor Master Servicer. The predecessor Master Servicer shall file or cause
to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The
predecessor Master Servicer shall bear any and all fees of


                                       109

<PAGE>



MERS, costs of preparing any assignments of Mortgage, and fees and costs of
filing any assignments of Mortgage that may be required under this subsection
(b). The successor Master Servicer shall cause such assignment to be delivered
to the Trustee or the Custodian promptly upon receipt of the original with
evidence of recording thereon or a copy certified by the public recording office
in which such assignment was recorded.

         Section 7.03.     Notification to Certificateholders.

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

         (b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates notice of each
such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of
Default shall have been cured or waived as provided in Section 7.04 hereof.

         Section 7.04.     Waiver of Events of Default.

         The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights of
Certificates affected by a default or Event of Default hereunder may waive any
default or Event of Default; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (a) a default or Event of
Default under clause (i) of Section 7.01 may be waived only by all of the
Holders of Certificates affected by such default or Event of Default and (b) no
waiver pursuant to this Section 7.04 shall affect the Holders of Certificates in
the manner set forth in Section 11.01(b)(i), (ii) or (iii). Upon any such waiver
of a default or Event of Default by the Holders representing the requisite
percentage of Voting Rights of Certificates affected by such default or Event of
Default, such default or Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be
deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                             CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

         Section 8.01.     Duties of Trustee.

         (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and
after the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to
perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or
waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it
by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise
as a prudent investor would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of such investor's own affairs.

         (b) The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they
conform to the requirements of this Agreement. The Trustee shall notify the
Certificateholders of any such documents which do not materially conform to the
requirements of this Agreement in the event that the Trustee, after so
requesting, does not receive satisfactorily corrected documents in a timely
fashion. The Trustee shall forward, cause to be forwarded or make available
electronically on its website in a timely fashion the notices, reports and
statements required to be forwarded by the Trustee pursuant to Sections 4.03,
7.03, and 10.01. The Trustee shall furnish in a timely fashion to the Master
Servicer such information as the Master Servicer may reasonably request from
time to time for the Master Servicer to fulfill its duties as set forth in this
Agreement. The Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall perform its
obligations hereunder in a manner so as to maintain the status of each of REMIC
I and REMIC II as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and to prevent the
imposition of any federal, state or local income, prohibited transaction (except
as provided in Section 2.04 herein), contribution or other tax on the Trust Fund
to the extent that maintaining such status and avoiding such taxes are
reasonably within the control of the Trustee and are reasonably within the scope
of its duties under this Agreement.

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

                  (i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after
         the curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have
         occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined
         solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
         not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations
         as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants
         or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee
         and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the
         Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and
         the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
         certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee by the Depositor or
         the Master Servicer and which on their face, do not contradict the
         requirements of this Agreement;



                                       111

<PAGE>



                  (ii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error
         of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible
         Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was
         negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

                  (iii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect
         to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good
         faith in accordance with the direction of the Certificateholders
         holding Certificates which evidence, Percentage Interests aggregating
         not less than 25% of the affected classes as to the time, method and
         place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
         Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee,
         under this Agreement;

                  (iv) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any
         default (other than a default in payment to the Trustee) specified in
         clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 or an Event of Default under
         clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 7.01 unless a Responsible
         Officer of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust
         Office obtains actual knowledge of such failure or event or the Trustee
         receives written notice of such failure or event at its Corporate Trust
         Office from the Master Servicer, the Depositor or any
         Certificateholder; and

                  (v) Except to the extent provided in Section 7.02, no
         provision in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk
         its own funds (including, without limitation, the making of any
         Advance) or otherwise incur any personal financial liability in the
         performance of any of its duties as Trustee hereunder, or in the
         exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Trustee shall have
         reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of funds or adequate
         indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
         it.

         (d) The Trustee shall timely pay, from its own funds, the amount of any
and all federal, state and local taxes imposed on the Trust Fund or its assets
or transactions including, without limitation, (A) "prohibited transaction"
penalty taxes as defined in Section 860F of the Code, if, when and as the same
shall be due and payable, (B) any tax on contributions to a REMIC after the
Closing Date imposed by Section 860G(d) of the Code and (C) any tax on "net
income from foreclosure property" as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, but
only if such taxes arise out of a breach by the Trustee of its obligations
hereunder, which breach constitutes negligence or willful misconduct of the
Trustee.

         Section 8.02.     Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.

         (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

                  (i) The Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or
         refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers' Certificate,
         certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
         instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
         appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine
         and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;



                                       112

<PAGE>



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

                  (iii) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
         of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute,
         conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the
         request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant
         to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders
         shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity
         against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred
         therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve
         the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of
         Default (which has not been cured), to exercise such of the rights and
         powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of
         care and skill in their exercise as a prudent investor would exercise
         or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such investor's own
         affairs;

                  (iv) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action
         taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be
         authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon
         it by this Agreement;

                  (v) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder
         and after the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred,
         the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts
         or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
         instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval,
         bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do
         by the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing, as to such
         Class, Percentage Interests, aggregating not less than 50%; provided,
         however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of
         the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the
         making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not
         reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the
         terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity
         against such expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding. The
         reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the
         Master Servicer, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is
         continuing, and otherwise by the Certificateholder requesting the
         investigation;

                  (vi) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
         hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
         through agents or attorneys provided that the Trustee shall remain
         liable for any acts of such agents or attorneys; and

                  (vii) To the extent authorized under the Code and the
         regulations promulgated thereunder, each Holder of a Class R
         Certificate hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Trustee to
         be its attorney-in-fact for purposes of signing any Tax Returns
         required to be filed on behalf of the Trust Fund. The Trustee shall
         sign on behalf of the Trust Fund and deliver to the Master Servicer in
         a timely manner any Tax Returns prepared by or on behalf of the Master
         Servicer that the Trustee is required to sign as determined by the
         Master Servicer pursuant to applicable federal, state or local tax
         laws, provided that the Master


                                       113

<PAGE>



         Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for signing any such Tax Returns
         that contain errors or omissions.

         (b) Following the issuance of the Certificates (and except as provided
for in Section 2.04), the Trustee shall not accept any contribution of assets to
the Trust Fund unless it shall have obtained or been furnished with an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that such contribution will not (i) cause any of REMIC
I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates
are outstanding or (ii) cause the Trust Fund to be subject to any federal tax as
a result of such contribution (including the imposition of any federal tax on
"prohibited transactions" imposed under Section 860F(a) of the Code).

         Section 8.03.  Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.

         The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
execution of the Certificates and relating to the acceptance and receipt of the
Mortgage Loans) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their
correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (except that the
Certificates shall be duly and validly executed and authenticated by it as
Certificate Registrar) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document, or of MERS
or the MERS(R) System. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall
not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor or the Master
Servicer of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or
for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Master
Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the
Custodial Account or the Certificate Account by the Depositor or the Master
Servicer.

         Section 8.04.     Trustee May Own Certificates.

         The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the
owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were
not Trustee.

         Section 8.05.     Master Servicer to Pay Trustee's Fees and Expenses;
                           Indemnification.

         (a) The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee and
any co-trustee from time to time, and the Trustee and any co-trustee shall be
entitled to, reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust)
for all services rendered by each of them in the execution of the trusts hereby
created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties
hereunder of the Trustee and any co-trustee, and the Master Servicer will pay or
reimburse the Trustee and any co-trustee upon request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee or any
co-trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including
the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel
and of all persons not regularly in its employ, and the expenses incurred by the
Trustee or any co-trustee in connection with the appointment of an office or
agency pursuant to Section 8.12) except any such expense, disbursement or
advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith.



                                       114

         (b) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and to
hold the Trustee harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred
without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of, or in
connection with, the acceptance and administration of the Trust Fund, including
the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of
defending itself against any claim in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of its powers or duties under this Agreement, provided that:

                  (i) with respect to any such claim, the Trustee shall have
         given the Master Servicer written notice thereof promptly after the
         Trustee shall have actual knowledge thereof;

                  (ii) while maintaining control over its own defense, the
         Trustee shall cooperate and consult fully with the Master Servicer in
         preparing such defense; and

                  (iii) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
         contrary, the Master Servicer shall not be liable for settlement of any
         claim by the Trustee entered into without the prior consent of the
         Master Servicer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations created
by this Section 8.05(b) of the Master Servicer to indemnify the Trustee under
the conditions and to the extent set forth herein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the indemnification provided by the Master Servicer in this Section
8.05(b) shall not pertain to any loss, liability or expense of the Trustee,
including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim, incurred
in connection with any actions taken by the Trustee at the direction of
Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

         Section 8.06.     Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.

         The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a national banking
association or a New York banking corporation having its principal office in a
state and city acceptable to the Depositor and organized and doing business
under the laws of such state or the United States of America, authorized under
such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority. If such corporation or national banking association
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such corporation
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in
Section 8.07.

         Section 8.07.     Resignation and Removal of the Trustee.

         (a) The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the
trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor and the
Master Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall
promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one
copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one
copy to


                                       115

<PAGE>



the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and
have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation then the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

         (b) If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written
request therefor by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall become
incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver
of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer
shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for
the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor
may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in
duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so
removed and one copy to the successor trustee. In addition, in the event that
the Depositor determines that the Trustee has failed (i) to distribute or cause
to be distributed to Certificateholders any amount required to be distributed
hereunder, if such amount is held by the Trustee or its Paying Agent (other than
the Master Servicer or the Depositor) for distribution or (ii) to otherwise
observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants, agreements or
obligations hereunder, and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period
of 5 days (in respect of clause (i) above) or 30 days (in respect of clause (ii)
above) after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring that
the same be remedied, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Depositor,
then the Depositor may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument delivered as provided in the preceding sentence. In
connection with the appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to the preceding
sentence, the Depositor shall, on or before the date on which any such
appointment becomes effective, obtain from each Rating Agency written
confirmation that the appointment of any such successor trustee will not result
in the reduction of the ratings on any class of the Certificates below the
lesser of the then current or original ratings on such Certificates.

         (c) The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting
Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or
their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments
shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee so removed
and one complete set to the successor so appointed.

         (d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become
effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in
Section 8.08.

         Section 8.08.     Successor Trustee.

         (a) Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor trustee
an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and
such successor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all
the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with
the like effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The predecessor
trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee all Mortgage Files and related
documents and statements held by it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at
the time


                                       116

<PAGE>



held by a Custodian, which shall become the agent of any successor trustee
hereunder), and the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the predecessor trustee
shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may
reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in
the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

         (b) No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06.

         (c) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided
in this Section, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such
trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in
the Certificate Register. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10
days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor
trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.

         Section 8.09.     Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.

         Any corporation or national banking association into which the Trustee
may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any
corporation or national banking association resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation or national banking association succeeding to the business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation or national banking association shall be eligible under the
provisions of Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding. The Trustee shall mail notice of any such merger or
consolidation to the Certificateholders at their address as shown in the
Certificate Register.

         Section 8.10.     Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

         (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the
purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part
of the Trust Fund or property securing the same may at the time be located, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall
execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by
the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or
separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and
to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust
Fund, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section
8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer
and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer
shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it
of a request so to do, or in case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to
Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate
trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof.

         (b) In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee
pursuant to this Section 8.10 all rights, powers, duties and obligations
conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall


                                       117

<PAGE>



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

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

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

         Section 8.11.     Appointment of Custodians.

         The Trustee may, with the consent of the Master Servicer and the
Depositor, appoint one or more Custodians who are not Affiliates of the
Depositor or the Master Servicer to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files
as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a Custodial Agreement. Subject to
Article VIII, the Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each Custodial
Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian
for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each Custodian shall be a depository
institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have a
combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and shall be qualified to
do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. Each
Custodial Agreement may be amended only as provided in Section 11.01. The
Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders of the appointment of any Custodian
(other than the Custodian appointed as of the Closing Date) pursuant to this
Section 8.11. The Trustee will maintain an office or agency which is located at
2001 Bryan Street, 8th Floor, Dallas, Texas 75201, Attention: ITS Transfer
Services - RAMP Series 2003-SL1 where Certificates may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange. The Trustee initially designates its
offices located at 2001 Bryan Street, 8th Floor, Dallas, Texas 75201, Attention:
ITS Transfer Services - RAMP Series 2003-SL1, for the purpose of keeping the
Certificate Register. The Trustee will maintain an office at the address stated
in Section 11.05(c) hereof where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee in
respect of this Agreement may be served.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                   TERMINATION

         Section 9.01.     Termination Upon Purchase by the Master Servicer or
                           Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.

         (a) Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and
responsibilities of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee created
hereby in respect of the Certificates (other than the obligation of the Trustee
to make certain payments after the Final Distribution Date to Certificateholders
and the obligation of the Depositor to send certain notices as hereinafter set
forth) shall terminate upon the last action required to be taken by the Trustee
on the Final Distribution Date pursuant to this Article IX following the earlier
of:

                  (i) the later of the final payment or other liquidation (or
         any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining
         in the Trust Fund or the disposition of all property acquired upon
         foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, or

                  (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer of all Mortgage Loans
         and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in
         the Trust Fund at a price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal balance
         of each Mortgage Loan (or, if less than such unpaid principal balance,
         the fair market value of the related underlying property of such
         Mortgage Loan with respect to Mortgage Loans as to which title has been
         acquired if such fair market value is less than such unpaid principal
         balance) (net of any unreimbursed Advances attributable to principal)
         on the day of repurchase, plus accrued interest thereon at the Net
         Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of any
         Modified Mortgage Loan), to, but not including, the first day of the
         month in which such repurchase price is distributed; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
         that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the
         expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the
         descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United
         States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof; provided
         further, that, if the amount due under any Certificate shall not have
         been reduced to zero prior to the Maturity Date, the Master Servicer
         shall be required to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this
         clause (ii); and provided further, that the purchase price set forth
         above shall be increased as is necessary, as determined by the Master
         Servicer, to avoid disqualification of any of REMIC I or REMIC II as a
         REMIC. The purchase price paid by the Master Servicer shall also
         include any amounts owed by Residential Funding pursuant to the Section
         5 of the Assignment Agreement in respect of any liability, penalty or
         expense that resulted from a covenant set forth in Section 5(B) that
         remain unpaid on the date of such purchase.

         The right of the Master Servicer to purchase all the assets of the
Trust Fund relating to the Mortgage Loans, pursuant to clause (ii) above is
conditioned upon the date of such purchase occurring on or after the Optional
Termination Date. If such right is exercised by the Master Servicer, the Master
Servicer shall be deemed to have been reimbursed for the full amount of any
unreimbursed Advances theretofore made by it with respect to the Mortgage Loans
being purchased.



                                       119

<PAGE>



In addition, the Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the certification
required by Section 3.15 and the Trustee and any Custodian shall, promptly
following payment of the purchase price, release to the Master Servicer the
Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased.

         In addition to the foregoing, on any Distribution Date on or after the
Optional Termination Date, the Master Servicer shall have the right, at its
option, to purchase the Certificates in whole, but not in part, at a price equal
to the sum of the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of such Certificates
plus the sum of one month's Accrued Certificate Interest thereon, or, with
respect to the Interest Only Certificates, on their Notional Amount, any
previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, and any unpaid Prepayment
Interest Shortfall previously allocated thereto. If the Master Servicer
exercises this right to purchase the outstanding Certificates, the Master
Servicer will promptly terminate the respective obligations and responsibilities
created hereby in respect of these Certificates pursuant to this Article IX.

         (b) The Master Servicer shall give the Trustee not less than 60 days'
prior notice of the Distribution Date on which the Master Servicer anticipates
that the final distribution will be made to Certificateholders (whether as a
result of the exercise by the Master Servicer of its right to purchase the
assets of the Trust Fund or otherwise). Notice of any termination, specifying
the anticipated Final Distribution Date (which shall be a date that would
otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which the Certificateholders may
surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for payment of the final
distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer
(if it is exercising its right to purchase the assets of the Trust Fund), or by
the Trustee (in any other case) by letter to Certificateholders mailed not
earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next
preceding the month of such final distribution specifying:

                  (i) the anticipated Final Distribution Date upon which final
         payment of the Certificates is anticipated to be made upon presentation
         and surrender of Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee
         therein designated,

                  (ii) the amount of any such final payment, if known, and

                  (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
         Distribution Date is not applicable, and that payment will be made only
         upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or
         agency of the Trustee therein specified.

         If the Master Servicer is obligated to give notice to
Certificateholders as aforesaid, it shall give such notice to the Certificate
Registrar at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event
such notice is given by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deposit
in the Certificate Account before the Final Distribution Date in immediately
available funds an amount equal to the purchase price for the assets of the
Trust Fund computed as above provided. The Master Servicer shall provide to the
Trustee written notification of any change to the anticipated Final Distribution
Date as soon as practicable. If the Trust Fund is not terminated on the
anticipated Final Distribution Date, for any reason, the Trustee shall promptly
mail notice thereof to each affected Certificateholder.


                                      120
<PAGE>




         (c) Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates by the
Certificateholders, the Trustee shall distribute to the Certificateholders (i)
the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date, if not in
connection with the Master Servicer's election to repurchase, or (ii) if the
Master Servicer elected to so repurchase, an amount equal to the outstanding
Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus Accrued Certificate Interest thereon
for the related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued
Certificate Interest.

         (d) In the event that any Certificateholders shall not surrender their
Certificates for final payment and cancellation on or before the Final
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall on such date cause all funds in the
Certificate Account not distributed in final distribution to Certificateholders
to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining Certificateholders by
depositing such funds in a separate escrow account for the benefit of such
Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer (if it exercised its right to
purchase the assets of the Trust Fund), or the Trustee (in any other case) shall
give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender
their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within six months after the second notice any Certificate
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall take
appropriate steps as directed by the Master Servicer to contact the remaining
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and
expenses of maintaining the escrow account and of contacting Certificateholders
shall be paid out of the assets which remain in the escrow account. If within
nine months after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to the Master Servicer all
amounts distributable to the holders thereof and the Master Servicer shall
thereafter hold such amounts until distributed to such holders. No interest
shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in the
escrow account or by the Master Servicer as a result of such Certificateholder's
failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with this Section 9.01 and the Certificateholders shall look only to the Master
Servicer for such payment.

         Section 9.02.     Additional Termination Requirements.

         (a) Each of REMIC I and REMIC II, as the case may be, shall be
terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the
Trustee and the Master Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel (which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee) to the effect that
the failure of any of REMIC I and REMIC II, as the case may be, to comply with
the requirements of this Section 9.02 will not (i) result in the imposition on
the Trust Fund of taxes on "prohibited transactions," as described in Section
860F of the Code, or (ii) cause any of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as
a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding:

                  (i) The Master Servicer shall establish a 90-day liquidation
         period for each of REMIC I and REMIC II, and specify the first day of
         such period in a statement attached to the Trust Fund's final Tax
         Return pursuant to Treasury regulations Section 1.860F-1. The Master
         Servicer also shall satisfy all of the requirements of a qualified
         liquidation for each of REMIC I and REMIC II, under Section 860F of the
         Code and the regulations thereunder;

                  (ii) The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee at the
         commencement of such 90-day liquidation period and, at or prior to the
         time of making of the final payment on the



                                      121
<PAGE>



         Certificates, the Trustee shall sell or otherwise dispose of all of the
         remaining assets of the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms hereof;
         and

                  (iii) If the Master Servicer is exercising its right to
         purchase the assets of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall,
         during the 90-day liquidation period and at or prior to the Final
         Distribution Date, purchase all of the assets of the Trust Fund for
         cash;

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the event that a calendar quarter ends after the
commencement of the 90- day liquidation period but prior to the Final
Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall not purchase any of the assets of
the Trust Fund prior to the close of that calendar quarter.

         (b) Each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee hereby irrevocably
approves and appoints the Master Servicer as its attorney-in-fact to adopt a
plan of complete liquidation for each of REMIC I and REMIC II at the expense of
the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

                                REMIC PROVISIONS

         Section 10.01.    REMIC Administration.

         (a) The REMIC Administrator shall make an election to treat each of
REMIC I and REMIC II as a REMIC under the Code and, if necessary, under
applicable state law. Such election will be made on Form 1066 or other
appropriate federal tax or information return (including Form 8811) or any
appropriate state return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the
calendar year in which the Certificates are issued. The REMIC I Regular
Interests shall be designated as the "regular interests" and the Class R-I
Certificates shall be designated as the sole class of "residual interests" in
REMIC I. The Class A-I, Class A-II, Class A-III, Class A-IV, Class A-IO, Class
A-PO, Class M and Class B Certificates shall be designated as the "regular
interests" in REMIC II and the Class R-II Certificates shall be designated the
sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC II. The REMIC Administrator and the
Trustee shall not permit the creation of any "interests" (within the meaning of
Section 860G of the Code) in the REMIC other than the Certificates.

         (b) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "startup day" of each
of REMIC I and REMIC II within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

         (c) The REMIC Administrator shall hold a Class R Certificate in each
REMIC representing a 0.01% Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates in
each REMIC and shall be designated as the "tax matters person" with respect to
each of REMIC I and REMIC II in the manner provided under Treasury regulations
section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury regulations section 301.6231(a)(7)-1. The REMIC
Administrator, as tax matters person, shall (i) act on behalf of each of REMIC I
and REMIC II in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving the Trust
Fund and (ii) represent the Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial
proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing
authority with respect thereto. The legal expenses, including without limitation
attorneys' or accountants' fees, and costs of any such proceeding and any
liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses of the Trust Fund and the REMIC
Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor out of amounts
attributable to the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Custodial Account as
provided by Section 3.10 unless such legal expenses and costs are incurred by
reason of the REMIC Administrator's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence. If the REMIC Administrator is no longer the Master Servicer
hereunder, at its option the REMIC Administrator may continue its duties as
REMIC Administrator and shall be paid reasonable compensation not to exceed
$3,000 per year by any successor Master Servicer hereunder for so acting as the
REMIC Administrator.

         (d) The REMIC Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared all
of the Tax Returns that it determines are required with respect to the REMIC
created hereunder and deliver such Tax Returns in a timely manner to the Trustee
and the Trustee shall sign and file such Tax Returns in a timely manner. The
expenses of preparing such returns shall be borne by the REMIC Administrator
without any right of reimbursement therefor. The REMIC Administrator agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee with respect to any tax or liability
arising from the Trustee's signing of Tax Returns that contain errors or
omissions. The Trustee and Master Servicer



                                      123
<PAGE>



shall promptly provide the REMIC Administrator with such information as the
REMIC Administrator may from time to time request for the purpose of enabling
the REMIC Administrator to prepare Tax Returns.

         (e) The REMIC Administrator shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a
Class R Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any
tax relating to the transfer of a Class R Certificate to any Person who is not a
Permitted Transferee, (ii) to the Trustee and the Trustee shall forward to the
Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or
the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue
discount, if any, and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment
Assumption) and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the name, title, address
and telephone number of the person who will serve as the representative of each
REMIC created hereunder.

         (f) The Master Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall take such
actions and shall cause each REMIC created hereunder to take such actions as are
reasonably within the Master Servicer's or the REMIC Administrator's control and
the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein as shall be necessary
or desirable to maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC
Provisions (and the Trustee shall assist the Master Servicer and the REMIC
Administrator, to the extent reasonably requested by the Master Servicer and the
REMIC Administrator to do so). In performing their duties as more specifically
set forth herein, the Master Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall not
knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any
action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably
within their respective control and the scope of duties more specifically set
forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the
case may be, could (i) endanger the status of any of REMIC I or REMIC II as a
REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any of REMIC I or REMIC II
(including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in
Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code (except as provided in Section 2.04) and the tax
on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either
such event, in the absence of an Opinion of Counsel or the indemnification
referred to in this sentence, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless the Master
Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, has received an Opinion of
Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such
party fails to pay such expense, and the Master Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator, as applicable, determines that taking such action is in the best
interest of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders, at the expense of the
Trust Fund, but in no event at the expense of the Master Servicer, the REMIC
Administrator or the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will
not, with respect to the Trust Fund created hereunder, endanger such status or,
unless the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator or both, as applicable,
determine in its or their sole discretion to indemnify the Trust Fund against
the imposition of such a tax, result in the imposition of such a tax. Wherever
in this Agreement a contemplated action may not be taken because the timing of
such action might result in the imposition of a tax on the Trust Fund, or may
only be taken pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel that such action would not
impose a tax on the Trust Fund, such action may nonetheless be taken provided
that the indemnity given in the preceding sentence with respect to any taxes
that might be imposed on the Trust Fund has been given and that all other
preconditions to the taking of such action have been satisfied. The Trustee
shall not take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder)
as to which the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, has
advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such



                                      124
<PAGE>



action. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to the Trust Fund
or its assets, or causing the Trust Fund to take any action, which is not
expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee will consult
with the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, or its
designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse
REMIC Event to occur with respect to the Trust Fund and the Trustee shall not
take any such action or cause the Trust Fund to take any such action as to which
the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, has advised it in
writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Master Servicer or the
REMIC Administrator, as applicable, may consult with counsel to make such
written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take
the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no event at the
expense of the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator. At all times as may
be required by the Code, the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as
applicable, will to the extent within its control and the scope of its duties
more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the assets of
the REMIC as "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code
and "permitted investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

         (g) In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions"
of any REMIC created hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on
"net income from foreclosure property" of any REMIC as defined in Section
860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to any REMIC after the startup day
therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax imposed by
the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall
be charged (i) to the Master Servicer, if such tax arises out of or results from
a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations under this Agreement
or the Master Servicer has in its sole discretion determined to indemnify the
Trust Fund against such tax, (ii) to the Trustee, if such tax arises out of or
results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this
Article X, or (iii) otherwise against amounts on deposit in the Custodial
Account as provided by Section 3.10 and on the Distribution Date(s) following
such reimbursement the aggregate of such taxes shall be allocated in reduction
of the Accrued Certificate Interest on each Class entitled thereto in the same
manner as if such taxes constituted a Prepayment Interest Shortfall.

         (h) The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall, for federal income tax
purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each REMIC on a calendar
year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the REMIC
Provisions.

         (i) Following the startup day, neither the Master Servicer nor the
Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any REMIC unless (subject to
Section 10.01(f)) the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have received an
Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such
contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in any REMIC will
not cause any of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding or subject any such REMIC to any tax under
the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local
law or ordinances.

         (j) Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall (subject to
Section 10.01(f)) enter into any arrangement by which any of REMIC I or REMIC II
will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit any of REMIC I
or REMIC II to receive any income from



                                      125
<PAGE>



assets other than "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the
Code or "permitted investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

         (k) Solely for the purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the
Treasury Regulations, the "latest possible maturity date" by which the principal
balance of each regular interest in each REMIC would be reduced to zero is April
25, 2031.

         (l) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the REMIC Administrator
shall prepare and file with the Internal Revenue Service Form 8811, "Information
Return for Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits (REMIC) and Issuers of
Collateralized Debt Obligations" for the Trust Fund.

         (m) Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall sell, dispose of
or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the
default, imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not
limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by deed in
lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund, (iii) the
termination of any REMIC pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or (iv) a
purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or III of this Agreement) or
acquire any assets for any REMIC or sell or dispose of any investments in the
Custodial Account or the Certificate Account for gain, or accept any
contributions to any REMIC after the Closing Date unless it has received an
Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition, substitution or acquisition will
not (a) affect adversely the status of any of REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC or
(b) unless the Master Servicer has determined in its sole discretion to
indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax, cause any REMIC to be subject to a
tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions.

         Section 10.02.    Master Servicer, REMIC Administrator and Trustee
                           Indemnification.

         (a) The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the
REMIC Administrator and the Master Servicer for any taxes and costs including,
without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by the
Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as a result of a breach of the
Trustee's covenants set forth in Article VIII or this Article X. In the event
that Residential Funding is no longer the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall
indemnify Residential Funding for any taxes and costs including, without
limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by Residential
Funding as a result of a breach of the Trustee's covenants set forth in Article
VIII or this Article X.

         (b) The REMIC Administrator agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee for any taxes and costs
(including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys' fees) imposed on or
incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee,
as a result of a breach of the REMIC Administrator's covenants set forth in this
Article X with respect to compliance with the REMIC Provisions, including
without limitation, any penalties arising from the Trustee's execution of Tax
Returns prepared by the REMIC Administrator that contain errors or omissions;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such liability will not be imposed to the extent such
breach is a result of an error or omission in information provided to the REMIC
Administrator by the Master Servicer in which case Section 10.02(c) will apply.




                                      126
<PAGE>



         (c) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the
Depositor, the REMIC Administrator and the Trustee for any taxes and costs
(including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys' fees) imposed on or
incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Trustee, as a result of a
breach of the Master Servicer's covenants set forth in this Article X or in
Article III with respect to compliance with the REMIC Provisions, including
without limitation, any penalties arising from the Trustee's execution of Tax
Returns prepared by the Master Servicer that contain errors or omissions.

         Section 10.04 Distributions on the REMIC I Regular Interests.

         (a) On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall be deemed to distribute
to itself, as the holder of the REMIC I Regular Interests, REMIC I Accrued
Interest on the REMIC I Regular Interests for such Distribution Date, plus any
REMIC I Accrued Interest thereon remaining unpaid from any previous Distribution
Date.

         (b) On each Distribution Date, distributions of principal shall be
deemed to be made to the REMIC I Regular Interests, in each case from the
related Loan Group, first, to each REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the
designation "SUB," so that the Uncertificated Principal Balance of each such
REMIC I Regular Interest is equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group over
(y) the Certificate Principal Amount of the related Senior Certificates (except
that if any such excess is a larger number than in the preceding distribution
period, the least amount of principal shall be distributed to such REMIC I
Regular Interests such that the REMIC I Subordinated Balance Ratio is
maintained); and second, any remaining principal in each Loan Group to the
related REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the designation "ZZZ" (provided
that a portion of the remaining principal equal to the Class A-I-PO Principal
Distribution Amount will be distributed to REMIC I Regular Interest A-I-PO and a
portion of the remaining principal equal to the Class A-PO Principal
Distribution Amount will be distributed to REMIC I Regular Interest A-PO).
Realized Losses from each Loan Group shall be applied after all distributions
have been made on each Distribution Date first, to the related REMIC I Regular
Interest ending with the designation "SUB," so that the Uncertificated Principal
Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is equal to 0.01% of the excess of
(x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related
Loan Group over (y) the Certificate Principal Amount of the related Senior
Certificates (except that if any such excess is a larger number than in the
preceding distribution period, the least amount of Realized Losses shall be
applied to such REMIC I Regular Interests such that the REMIC I Subordinated
Balance Ratio is maintained); and second, any remaining Realized Losses from
each Loan Group shall be allocated to the related REMIC I Regular Interests
ending with the designation "ZZZ" (except that if a Realized Loss is recognized
with respect to a Discount Mortgage Loan that is a Group I Loan, the applicable
portion of such Realized Loss will be allocated to REMIC I Regular Interest
A-I-PO and that if a Realized Loss is recognized with respect to a Discount
Mortgage Loan that is a Group II Loan, Group III Loan or Group IV Loan, the
applicable portion of such Realized Loss will be allocated to REMIC I Regular
Interest A-PO).

         (c) Notwithstanding the deemed distributions on the REMIC I Regular
Interests described in this Section 10.04, distributions of funds from the
Certificate Account shall be made only in accordance with Section 4.02.

         Section 10.05.    Distributions on the Uncertificated REMIC Regular
                           Interests.

         (a) On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall be deemed to distribute
to itself, as the holder of the Uncertificated REMIC Regular Interests,
Uncertificated Accrued Interest on the Uncertificated REMIC Regular Interests
for such Distribution Date, plus any Uncertificated Accrued Interest thereon
remaining unpaid from any previous Distribution Date.

         (b) In determining from time to time the Uncertificated REMIC Regular
Interest Distribution Amounts, Realized Losses allocated to the Class A-I-IO
Certificates and Class A-IO Certificates under Section 4.05 shall be deemed
allocated to related Uncertificated REMIC Regular Interests on a pro rata basis
based on the related Uncertificated Accrued Interest for the related
Distribution Date.

         (c) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall be deemed to
distribute from the Trust Fund, in the priority set forth in Section 4.02(a), to
the Class A-I-IO Certificates and Class A-IO Certificates, the amounts
distributable thereon from the related Uncertificated REMIC Regular Interest
Distribution Amounts deemed to have been received by the Trustee from the Trust
Fund under this Section 10.05. The amount deemed distributable hereunder with
respect to the Class A-I- IO Certificates and Class A-IO Certificates shall
equal 100% of the amounts payable with respect to the related Uncertificated
REMIC Regular Interests.

         (d) Notwithstanding the deemed distributions on the REMIC I Regular
Interests described in this Section 10.05, distributions of funds from the
Certificate Account shall be made only in accordance with Section 4.02.

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         Section 11.01.    Amendment.

         (a) This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time
to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, without the
consent of any of the Certificateholders:

                  (i) to cure any ambiguity,

                  (ii) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or
         therein, which may be inconsistent with any other provisions herein or
         therein or to correct any error,

                  (iii) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to
         such extent as shall be necessary or desirable to maintain the
         qualification of REMIC I or REMIC II as REMICs at all times that any
         Certificate is outstanding or to avoid or minimize the risk of the
         imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund pursuant to the Code that would
         be a claim against the Trust Fund, provided that the Trustee has
         received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) such action is
         necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or
         minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (B) such action
         will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
         Certificateholder,

                  (iv) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits into the
         Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or to change the name in
         which the Custodial Account is maintained, provided that (A) the
         Certificate Account Deposit Date shall in no event be later than the
         related Distribution Date, (B) such change shall not, as evidenced by
         an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the
         interests of any Certificateholder and (C) such change shall not result
         in a reduction of the rating assigned to any Class of Certificates
         below the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to
         such Certificates as of the Closing Date, as evidenced by a letter from
         each Rating Agency to such effect,

                  (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of Section
         5.02(f) or any other provision hereof restricting transfer of the Class
         R Certificates by virtue of their being the "residual interests" in the
         Trust Fund provided that (A) such change shall not result in reduction
         of the rating assigned to any such Class of Certificates below the
         lower of the then- current rating or the rating assigned to such
         Certificates as of the Closing Date, as evidenced by a letter from each
         Rating Agency to such effect, and (B) such change shall not, as
         evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking
         so to modify, eliminate or add such provisions), cause the Trust Fund
         or any of the Certificateholders (other than the transferor) to be
         subject to a federal tax caused by a transfer to a Person that is not a
         Permitted Transferee, or

                  (vi) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
         questions arising under this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement
         which shall not be materially



                                      129
<PAGE>



         inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such
         action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely
         affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder.

         (b) This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended from
time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Holders
of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage
Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of
adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no such amendment shall:

                  (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing
         of, payments which are required to be distributed on any Certificate
         without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate,

                  (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interest of
         the Holders of Certificates of any Class in a manner other than as
         described in clause (i) hereof without the consent of Holders of
         Certificates of such Class evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage
         Interests aggregating not less than 66%, or

                  (iii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any
         Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such
         amendment, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all
         Certificates of such Class then outstanding.

         (c) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking
such amendment) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under this
Agreement and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the
Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee in accordance with such amendment
will not result in the imposition of a federal tax on the Trust Fund or cause
REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as REMICs at any time that any
Certificate is outstanding. The Trustee may but shall not be obligated to enter
into any amendment pursuant to this Section that affects its rights, duties and
immunities and this agreement or otherwise; PROVIDED HOWEVER, such consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld.

         (d) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee
shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to each
Certificateholder. It shall not be necessary for the consent of
Certificateholders under this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of
any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve
the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing
the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

         (e) The Depositor shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to
obtain and deliver to the Trustee any corporate guaranty, payment obligation,
irrevocable letter of credit, surety bond, insurance policy or similar
instrument or a reserve fund, or any combination of the foregoing, for the
purpose of protecting the Holders of the Class R Certificates against any or all
Realized Losses or



                                      130
<PAGE>



other shortfalls. Any such instrument or fund shall be held by the Trustee for
the benefit of the Class R Certificateholders, but shall not be and shall not be
deemed to be under any circumstances included in the REMIC. To the extent that
any such instrument or fund constitutes a reserve fund for federal income tax
purposes, (i) any reserve fund so established shall be an outside reserve fund
and not an asset of the REMIC, (ii) any such reserve fund shall be owned by the
Depositor, and (iii) amounts transferred by the REMIC to any such reserve fund
shall be treated as amounts distributed by the REMIC to the Depositor or any
successor, all within the meaning of Treasury regulations Section 1.860G-2(h).
In connection with the provision of any such instrument or fund, this Agreement
and any provision hereof may be modified, added to, deleted or otherwise amended
in any manner that is related or incidental to such instrument or fund or the
establishment or administration thereof, such amendment to be made by written
instrument executed or consented to by the Depositor and such related insurer
but without the consent of any Certificateholder and without the consent of the
Master Servicer or the Trustee being required unless any such amendment would
impose any additional obligation on, or otherwise adversely affect the interests
of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable;
provided that the Depositor obtains an Opinion of Counsel (which need not be an
opinion of Independent counsel) to the effect that any such amendment will not
cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without
limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section
860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code and (b) any of REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. In the event
that the Depositor elects to provide such coverage in the form of a limited
guaranty provided by General Motors Acceptance Corporation, the Depositor may
elect that the text of such amendment to this Agreement shall be substantially
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K (in which case Residential Funding's
Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation as described in such exhibit shall be
established by Residential Funding's consent to such amendment) and that the
limited guaranty shall be executed in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L,
with such changes as the Depositor shall deem to be appropriate; it being
understood that the Trustee has reviewed and approved the content of such forms
and that the Trustee's consent or approval to the use thereof is not required.

         Section 11.02.    Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

         (a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is
subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property
records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or
all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other
appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be
effected by the Master Servicer and at its expense on direction by the Trustee
(pursuant to the request of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25%
of the Voting Rights), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects
the interests of the Certificateholders.

         (b) For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement
as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.

         Section 11.03.    Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

         (a) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate
to terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such
Certificateholder's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the
Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of any
of the parties hereto.

         (b) No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as
expressly provided herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and
management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor
shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates,
be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as
partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under
any liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the parties
to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.

         (c) No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default
and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the
Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing in the aggregate not less than
25% of the related Percentage Interests of such Class, shall have made written
request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own
name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable
indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred therein or thereby, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,

         Section 11.08.    Supplemental Provisions for Resecuritization.

         (a) This Agreement may be supplemented by means of the addition of a
separate Article hereto (a "Supplemental Article") for the purpose of
resecuritizing any of the Certificates issued hereunder, under the following
circumstances. With respect to any Class or Classes of Certificates issued
hereunder, or any portion of any such Class, as to which the Depositor or any of
its Affiliates (or any designee thereof) is the registered Holder (the
"Resecuritized Certificates"), the Depositor may deposit such Resecuritized
Certificates into a new REMIC, grantor trust, FASIT or custodial arrangement (a
"Restructuring Vehicle") to be held by the Trustee pursuant to a Supplemental
Article. The instrument adopting such Supplemental Article shall be executed by
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee; provided, that neither the
Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall withhold their consent thereto if their
respective interests would not be materially adversely affected thereby. To the
extent that the terms of the Supplemental Article do not in any way affect any
provisions of this Agreement as to any of the Certificates initially issued
hereunder, the adoption of the Supplemental Article shall not constitute an
"amendment" of this Agreement. Each Supplemental Article shall set forth all
necessary provisions relating to the holding of the Resecuritized Certificates
by the Trustee, the establishment of the Restructuring Vehicle, the issuing of
various classes of new certificates by the Restructuring Vehicle and the
distributions to be made thereon, and any other provisions necessary to the
purposes thereof. In connection with each Supplemental Article, the Depositor
shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) the
Restructuring Vehicle will qualify as a REMIC, grantor trust, FASIT or other
entity not subject to taxation for federal income tax purposes and (ii) the
adoption of the Supplemental Article will not endanger the status of any of
REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon the
Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transaction as
defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a
REMIC as set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code.

                                 SERIES 2003-SL1

           evidencing a percentage interest in the distributions
           allocable to the Class A-__ Certificates with respect to a
           Trust Fund consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one-
           to four-family fixed interest rate first mortgage loans sold
           by RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC.

         This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset
Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or
GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate
nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., the
Master Servicer, the Trustee or GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their
affiliates. None of the Company, the Master Servicer, GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc.
or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any
certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the
Certificates.

         This certifies that ______________ is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate [(obtained by dividing the
[Initial Certificate Principal Balance] [Initial Notional Amount] of this
Certificate by the aggregate [Initial Certificate Principal Balance of all Class
A-__ Certificates] [Initial Notional Amount of all [Class A-I-IO][Class A-IO]
Certificates], both as specified above)] in certain distributions with respect
to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of conventional
one- to four-family fixed interest rate first mortgage loans (the "Mortgage
Loans"), sold by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc. (hereinafter called
the


                                       A-2

<PAGE>



"Company," which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred
to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing
Agreement dated as of November 1, 2003 (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement" or
the "Agreement") among the Company, the Master Servicer and JPMorgan Chase Bank,
as Trustee (the "Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of
which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized
terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate
is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the
Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the
acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

         Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
from the related Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product
of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of
[interest][and][principal], if any) required to be distributed to Holders of
Class A-__ Certificates on such Distribution Date. [The Notional Amount of the
[Class A-I-IO][Class A-IO] Certificates as of any date of determination is equal
to the aggregate stated principal balance of the Mortgage Loans corresponding to
the uncertificated REMIC regular interests represented by such [Class
A-I-IO][Class A-IO] Certificates.]

         Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master
Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed by the
Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the
account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the
Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the
Certificate Register.

         Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate
will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose in the City and State of New York. The [Initial
Certificate Principal Balance] [Initial Notional Amount] of this Certificate is
set forth above.] [The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to
the extent of distributions allocable to principal and any Realized Losses
allocable hereto.]

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the
"Certificates").

         The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the related Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are
advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the
Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related
recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been
distributable to Certificateholders.



                                       A-3

         As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account
and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may
be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than
distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation
reimbursement to the Company and the Master Servicer of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, by either of them.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Company, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Company, the Master
Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates. As provided in the
Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of
this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies
appointed by the Trustee in the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly
executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same class and aggregate percentage interest will be issued to
the designated transferee or transferees.

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

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Company, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Company, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.

         This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York.

         The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates
and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and
required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer
from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in
respect of such Mortgage Loans, thereby effecting early retirement of the
Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Master Servicer
to (i) purchase at a price determined as provided in the Agreement all remaining
Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan in a
loan group or (ii) purchase in whole, but not in part, all of the Certificates
related to a loan group from the Holders thereof; provided, that any such option
may only be exercised if the pool Stated Principal Balance of the related
Mortgage Loans as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such
purchase are distributed is less than one percent of the Cut-off Date Principal
Balance of the related Mortgage Loans.

         Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Certificate
set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

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

             evidencing a percentage interest in any distributions
             allocable to the Class M-___ Certificates with respect to the
             Trust Fund consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one-
             to four-family fixed interest rate first mortgage loans sold
             by RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC.

         This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset
Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or
GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate
nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., the

affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, GMAC Mortgage Group,
Inc. or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any
certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the

         This certifies that _______________ is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate (obtained by dividing the
Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of all Class M-___ Certificates, both as specified above) in

pool of conventional one- to four-family fixed interest rate first mortgage
loans (the "Mortgage Loans"), formed and sold by Residential Asset Mortgage
Products, Inc. (hereinafter called the "Depositor," which term includes any
successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was
created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of November 1,
2003, (the


                                       B-3

<PAGE>



"Pooling and Servicing Agreement" or the "Agreement") among the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as trustee (the "Trustee"), a summary
of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the
extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings
assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to
the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the
Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by
which such Holder is bound.

         Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
from the related Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product
of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of
interest and principal, if any) required to be distributed to Holders of Class
M-___ Certificates on such Distribution Date.

         Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master
Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed by the
Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the
account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the
Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the
Certificate Register.

         Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate
will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose in the City and State of New York. The Initial
Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth above. The
Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of the
distributions allocable to principal and any Realized Losses allocable hereto.

         As described above, any transferee of this Certificate will be deemed
to have represented by virtue of its purchase or holding of this Certificate (or
interest herein) that either (A) such transferee is not a Plan Investor, (B) it
has acquired and is holding this Certificate in reliance on the RFC Exemption
and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of
the RFC Exemption including that this Certificate must be rated, at the time of
purchase, not lower than "BBB-" (or its equivalent) by Standard & Poor's, Fitch
or Moody's or (C) the transferee is a Complying Insurance Company. In addition,
any purported Certificate Owner whose acquisition or holding of this Certificate
(or interest herein) was effected in violation of the restrictions in Section
5.02(e) of the Agreement shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Subservicer, and the Trust Fund from and
against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such
parties as a result of such acquisition or holding.

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the
"Certificates").

         The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the related Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically
set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are
advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the
Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related
recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been
distributable to Certificateholders.

         As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account
and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may
be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than
distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation
reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, by either of them.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Depositor , the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.

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

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

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person

in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any
such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York.

         The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates
and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and
required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer
from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in
respect of such Mortgage Loans, thereby effecting early retirement of the
Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Master Servicer
to (i) purchase at a price determined as provided in the Agreement all remaining
Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan in a
loan group or (ii) purchase in whole, but not in part, all of the Certificates
related to a loan group from the Holders thereof; provided, that any such option
may only be exercised if the pool Stated Principal Balance of the related
Mortgage Loans as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such
purchase are distributed is less than one percent of the Cut-off Date Principal
Balance of the related Mortgage Loans.

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

Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is

Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.

         This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with

Mortgage Loans as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such
purchase are distributed is less than one

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

Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of
the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.

         The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is

or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer
from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in

to (i) purchase at a price determined as provided in the Agreement all remaining
Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan in a
loan group or (ii) purchase in whole, but not in part, all of the Certificates
related to a loan group from the Holders thereof; provided, that any such option
may only be exercised if the pool Stated Principal Balance of the related
Mortgage Loans as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such
purchase are distributed is less than one percent of the Cut-off Date Principal
Balance of the related Mortgage Loans.

                                   ARTICLE II

                          Custody of Mortgage Documents

                  Section 2.1. Custodian to Act as Agent; Acceptance of Mortgage
Files. The Custodian, as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee for these
purposes, acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Files relating to the Mortgage
Loans identified on the schedule attached hereto (the "Mortgage Files") and
declares that it holds and will hold the Mortgage Files as agent for the
Trustee, in trust, for the use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders.

                  Section 2.2. Recordation of Assignments. If any Mortgage File
includes one or more assignments to the Trustee of Mortgage Notes and related
Mortgages that have not been recorded, each such assignment shall be delivered
by the Custodian to the Depositor for the purpose of recording it in the
appropriate public office for real property records, and the Depositor, at no
expense to the Custodian, shall promptly cause to be recorded in the appropriate
public office for real property records each such assignment and, upon receipt
thereof from such public office, shall return each such assignment to the
Custodian.

                  Section 2.3.  Review of Mortgage Files.

                  (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Custodian shall
deliver to the Trustee an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit One evidencing receipt of a Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan listed
on the Schedule attached hereto (the "Mortgage Loan Schedule").

                  (b) Within 45 days after the closing date, the Custodian
agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review, in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2.02 of the Pooling Agreement, each Mortgage File, and
shall deliver to the Trustee an Interim Certification in the form annexed hereto
as Exhibit Two to the effect that all documents required to be delivered
pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling Agreement have been executed and
received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A attached
to such Interim Certification. Within 45 days of receipt of the documents
required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling Agreement,
the Custodian agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 of the Pooling Agreement, each
such document, and shall deliver to the Trustee either (i) an Interim
Certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit Two to the effect that all
such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A attached to such
Interim Certification or (ii) a Final Certification as set forth in subsection
(c) below. The Custodian shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review
or examine said documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to
determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the
represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that they are
other than what they purport to be on their face. If in performing the review
required by this Section 2.3 the Custodian finds any document or documents
constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be defective in any material respect,
the Custodian shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Master Servicer and
the Trustee.

                  (c) Upon receipt of all documents required to be in the
Mortgage Files the Custodian shall deliver to the Trustee a Final Certification
in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit Three evidencing the completeness of the
Mortgage Files.

                  Upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, the
Custodian shall as soon as practicable supply the Trustee with a list of all of
the documents relating to the Mortgage Loans then contained in the Mortgage
Files.

                  Section 2.4. Notification of Breaches of Representations and
Warranties. Upon discovery by the Custodian of a breach of any representation or
warranty made by the Master Servicer or the Depositor as set forth in the
Pooling Agreement or by a Seller in a Seller's Agreement or by Residential
Funding or the Depositor in the Assignment Agreement with respect to a Mortgage
Loan relating to a Mortgage File, the Custodian shall give prompt written notice
to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee.

                  Section 2.5. Custodian to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage
Files. Upon the repurchase or substitution of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Article II of the Pooling Agreement or payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or
the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will
be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall
immediately notify the Custodian by a certification (which certification shall
include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Custodial
Account pursuant to Section 3.07 of the Pooling Agreement have been or will be
so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery to it of the
Mortgage File. The Custodian agrees, upon receipt of such certification and
request, promptly to release to the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File.
The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian and the Custodian agrees to
accept the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Mortgage File with
respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan.

                  Upon receipt of written notification from the Master Servicer,
signed by a Servicing Officer, that the Master Servicer or a Subservicer, as the
case may be, has made a deposit into the Certificate Account in payment for the
purchase of the related Mortgage Loan in an amount equal to the Purchase Price
for such Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall release to the Master Servicer the
related Mortgage File.

                  From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosures of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under
any Primary Insurance Policy or any Mortgage Pool Insurance Policy, the Master
Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Officer
requesting that possession of all, or any document constituting part, of the
Mortgage File be released to the Master Servicer and certifying as to the reason
for such release and that such release will not invalidate any insurance
coverage provided in respect of the Mortgage Loan under any of the Required
Insurance Policies. With such certificate, the Master Servicer shall deliver to
the Custodian a trust receipt signed by a Servicing Officer on behalf of the
Master Servicer, and upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver
the Mortgage File or such document to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer
shall cause each Mortgage File or any document therein so released to be
returned to the Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no
longer exists, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the
Liquidation Proceeds relating to the


                                       E-3

Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer has
delivered to the Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to
the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document
was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. In the event of the
liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall deliver the Trust Receipt
with respect thereto to the Master Servicer upon deposit of the related
Liquidation Proceeds in the Custodial Account as provided in the Pooling
Agreement.

                  Section 2.6. Assumption Agreements. In the event that any
assumption agreement or substitution of liability agreement is entered into with
respect to any Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement in accordance with the
terms and provisions of the Pooling Agreement, the Master Servicer shall notify
the Custodian that such assumption or substitution agreement has been completed
by forwarding to the Custodian the original of such assumption or substitution
agreement, which shall be added to the related Mortgage File and, for all
purposes, shall be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as
all other documents and instruments constituting parts thereof.


                                   ARTICLE III

                            Concerning the Custodian

                  Section 3.1. Custodian a Bailee and Agent of the Trustee. With
respect to each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each
Mortgage File which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is exclusively
the bailee and agent of the Trustee and has no instructions to hold any Mortgage
Note or Mortgage for the benefit of any person other than the Trustee, holds
such documents for the benefit of Certificateholders and undertakes to perform
such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement. Except upon compliance with the provisions of Section 2.5 of this
Agreement, no Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other document constituting a part of a
Mortgage File shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Depositor or the Master
Servicer or otherwise released from the possession of the Custodian.

                  Section 3.2. Indemnification. The Depositor hereby agrees to
indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against all claims,
liabilities, losses, actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity, or any
other expenses, fees or charges of any character or nature, which the Custodian
may incur or with which the Custodian may be threatened by reason of its acting
as custodian under this Agreement, including indemnification of the Custodian
against any and all expenses, including attorney's fees if counsel for the
Custodian has been approved by the Depositor, and the cost of defending any
action, suit or proceedings or resisting any claim. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, it is specifically understood and agreed that in the event any such
claim, liability, loss, action, suit or proceeding or other expense, fee or
charge shall have been caused by reason of any negligent act, negligent failure
to act or willful misconduct on the part of the Custodian, or which shall
constitute a willful breach of its duties hereunder, the indemnification
provisions of this Agreement shall not apply.

                  Section 3.3. Custodian May Own Certificates. The Custodian in

Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not Custodian.

                  Section 3.4. Master Servicer to Pay Custodian's Fees and
Expenses. The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Custodian from
time to time, and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation
for all services rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the
powers and duties hereunder of the Custodian, and the Master Servicer will pay
or reimburse the Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with
any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation
and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not
regularly in its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as
may arise from its negligence or bad faith.

                  Section 3.5. Custodian May Resign; Trustee May Remove
Custodian. The Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed upon it as such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian
of the Mortgage Loans. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trustee
shall either take custody of the Mortgage Files itself and give prompt notice
thereof to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Custodian, or promptly
appoint a successor Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of
which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to
the successor Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the
Mortgage Files and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have
accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian.

                  The Trustee may remove the Custodian at any time. In such
event, the Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction
to appoint, a successor Custodian hereunder. Any successor Custodian shall be a
depository institution subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority and shall be able to satisfy the other requirements contained in
Section 3.7 and shall be unaffiliated with the Master Servicer or the Depositor
..

                  Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of
a successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.5
shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor
Custodian. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Depositor and the Master
Servicer of the appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian
shall be appointed by the Trustee without the prior approval of the Depositor
and the Master Servicer.

                  Section 3.6. Merger or Consolidation of Custodian. Any Person
into which the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Custodian shall be a party, or any Person succeeding
to the business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

hereby represents that it is a depository institution subject to supervision or
examination by a federal or state authority, has a combined capital and surplus
of at least $15,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdictions in
which it will hold any Mortgage File.


                                   ARTICLE IV

                            Miscellaneous Provisions

                  Section 4.1. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and
demands and other communications required under this Agreement or pursuant to
any other instrument or document delivered hereunder shall be in writing and,
unless otherwise specifically provided, may be delivered personally, by telegram
or telex, or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, at the addresses specified on the signature page hereof (unless
changed by the particular party whose address is stated herein by similar notice
in writing), in which case the notice will be deemed delivered when received.

                  Section 4.2. Amendments. No modification or amendment of or
supplement to this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless the same is in
writing and signed by all parties hereto, and neither the Depositor, the Master
Servicer nor the Trustee shall enter into any amendment hereof except as
permitted by the Pooling Agreement. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the
Custodian of any amendment or supplement to the Pooling Agreement and furnish
the Custodian with written copies thereof.

                  SECTION 4.3. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED A
CONTRACT MADE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND
ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

                  Section 4.4. Recordation of Agreement. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate
public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are
situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere,
such recordation to be effected by the Master Servicer and at its expense on
direction by the Trustee (pursuant to the request of holders of Certificates
evidencing undivided interests in the aggregate of not less than 25% of the
Trust Fund), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer to the effect that the failure to
effect such recordation is likely to materially and adversely affect the
interests of the Certificateholders.

                  For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this
Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be
executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which
counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall
constitute but one and the same instrument.

the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for
any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions
or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates
or the rights of the holders thereof.

                           ) ss.:
COUNTY OF                  )

                           [NAME OF OFFICER], being first duly sworn, deposes
and says:

         1. That he is [Title of Officer] of [Name of Owner] (record or
beneficial owner of the Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series _______,
Class R[-__] (the "Owner")), a [savings institution] [corporation] duly
organized and existing under the laws of [the State of ] [the United States], on
behalf of which he makes this affidavit and agreement.

         2. That the Owner (i) is not and will not be a "disqualified
organization" or an electing large partnership as of [date of transfer] within
the meaning of Sections 860E(e)(5) and 775, respectively, of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") or an electing large partnership
under Section 775(a) of the Code, (ii) will endeavor to remain other than a
disqualified organization for so long as it retains its ownership interest in
the Class R[-__] Certificates, and (iii) is acquiring the Class R[-__]
Certificates for its own account or for the account of another Owner from which
it has received an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as
this affidavit and agreement. (For this purpose, a "disqualified organization"
means an electing large partnership under Section 775 of the Code, the United
States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any agency or
instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality all of
the activities of which are subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, a majority of whose board of directors is not selected by
any such governmental entity) or any foreign government, international
organization or any agency or instrumentality of such foreign government or
organization, any rural electric or telephone cooperative, or any organization
(other than certain farmers' cooperatives) that is generally exempt from federal
income tax unless such organization is subject to the tax on unrelated business
taxable income).

         3. That the Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on
transfers of Class R[-__] Certificates to disqualified organizations or electing
large partnerships, under the Code, that applies to all transfers of Class
R[-__] Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the
transferor (or, with respect to transfers to electing large partnerships, on
each such partnership), or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person
includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a disqualified organization, on the
agent; (iii) that the person (other than with respect to transfers to electing
large partnerships) otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability
for the tax if the transferee furnishes to such person an affidavit that the
transferee is not a disqualified organization and, at the time of transfer, such
person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and (iv) that
the Class R[-__] Certificates may be "noneconomic residual interests" within the
meaning of Treasury regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the
transferor of a noneconomic residual interest will remain liable


                                      H-1-1

<PAGE>



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

         4. That the Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a "pass-through
entity" holding Class R[-__] Certificates if either the pass-through entity is
an electing large partnership under Section 775 of the Code or if at any time
during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a disqualified organization
is the record holder of an interest in such entity. (For this purpose, a "pass
through entity" includes a regulated investment Depositor, a real estate
investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and
certain cooperatives.)

         5. The Owner is either (i) a citizen or resident of the United States,
(ii) a corporation, partnership or other entity treated as a corporation or a
partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and created or organized in or
under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of
Columbia (other than a partnership that is not treated as a United States person
under any applicable Treasury regulations), (iii) an estate that is described in
Section 7701(a)(30)(D) of the Code, or (iv) a trust that is described in Section
7701(a)(30)(E) of the Code.

         6. The Owner hereby agrees that it will not cause income from the Class
R[-__] Certificates to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or
fixed base (within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty) of the Owner
of another United States taxpayer.

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

         8. That the Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face
of the Class R[-__] Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.02(f) of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Class R[-__] Certificates were
issued (in particular, clause (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 5.02(f) which
authorize the Trustee to deliver payments to a person other than the Owner and
negotiate a mandatory sale by the Trustee in the event the Owner holds such
Certificates in violation of Section 5.02(f)). The Owner expressly agrees to be
bound by and to comply with such restrictions and provisions.

         9. That the Owner consents to any additional restrictions or
arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute
a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R[-__] Certificates will only
be owned, directly or indirectly, by an Owner that is not a disqualified
organization.

         10.      The Owner's Taxpayer Identification Number is _______________.

         11. This affidavit and agreement relates only to the Class R[-__]
Certificates held by the Owner and not to any other holder of the Class R[-__]
Certificates. The Owner understands that the liabilities described herein relate
only to the Class R[-__] Certificates.


                                      H-1-2

<PAGE>



         12. That no purpose of the Owner relating to the transfer of any of the
Class R[-__] Certificates by the Owner is or will be to impede the assessment or
collection of any tax; in making this representation, the Owner warrants that
the Owner is familiar with (i) Treasury Regulation Section 1.860E-1(c) and
recent amendments thereto, effective as of July 19, 2002, and (ii) the preamble

Background

This document contains final regulations regarding the proposed amendments to 26
CFR part 1 under section 860E of the Internal Revenue


                                      H-1-6

Code (Code). The regulations provide the circumstances under which a transferor
of a noneconomic REMIC residual interest meeting the investigation and
representation requirements may avail itself of the safe harbor by satisfying
either the formula test or the asset test.

Final regulations governing REMICs, issued in 1992, contain rules governing the
transfer of noneconomic REMIC residual interests. In general, a transfer of a
noneconomic residual interest is disregarded for all tax purposes if a
significant purpose of the transfer is to

[[Page 47452]]

enable the transferor to impede the assessment or collection of tax. A purpose
to impede the assessment or collection of tax (a wrongful purpose) exists if the
transferor, at the time of the transfer, either knew or should have known that
the transferee would be unwilling or unable to pay taxes due on its share of the
REMIC's taxable income.

Under a safe harbor, the transferor of a REMIC noneconomic residual interest is
presumed not to have a wrongful purpose if two requirements are satisfied: (1)
the transferor conducts a reasonable investigation of the transferee's financial
condition (the investigation requirement); and (2) the transferor secures a
representation from the transferee to the effect that the transferee understands
the tax obligations associated with holding a residual interest and intends to
pay those taxes (the representation requirement).

The IRS and Treasury have been concerned that some transferors of noneconomic
residual interests claim they satisfy the safe harbor even in situations where
the economics of the transfer clearly indicate the transferee is unwilling or
unable to pay the tax associated with holding the interest. For this reason, on
February 7, 2000, the IRS published in the Federal Register (65 FR 5807) a
notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-100276-97; REG-122450-98) designed to clarify
the safe harbor by adding the "formula test," an economic test. The proposed
regulation provides that the safe harbor is unavailable unless the present value
of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the residual interest
does not exceed the sum of: (1) The present value of any consideration given to
the transferee to acquire the interest; (2) the present value of the expected
future distributions on the interest; and (3) the present value of the
anticipated tax savings associated with holding the interest as the REMIC
generates losses.

The notice of proposed rulemaking also contained rules for FASITs. Section
1.860H-6(g) of the proposed regulations provides requirements


                                      H-1-7

<PAGE>



for transfers of FASIT ownership interests and adopts a safe harbor by reference
to the safe harbor provisions of the REMIC regulations.

In January 2001, the IRS published Rev. Proc. 2001-12 (2001-3 I.R.B. 335) to set
forth an alternative safe harbor that taxpayers could use while the IRS and the
Treasury considered comments on the proposed regulations. Under the alternative
safe harbor, if a transferor meets the investigation requirement and the
representation requirement but the transfer fails to meet the formula test, the
transferor may invoke the safe harbor if the transferee meets a two- prong test
(the asset test). A transferee generally meets the first prong of this test if,
at the time of the transfer, and in each of the two years preceding the year of
transfer, the transferee's gross assets exceed $100 million and its net assets
exceed $10 million. A transferee generally meets the second prong of this test
if it is a domestic, taxable corporation and agrees in writing not to transfer
the interest to any person other than another domestic, taxable corporation that
also satisfies the requirements of the asset test. A transferor cannot rely on
the asset test if the transferor knows, or has reason to know, that the
transferee will not comply with its written agreement to limit the restrictions
on subsequent transfers of the residual interest.

   Rev. Proc. 2001-12 provides that the asset test fails to be satisfied in the
case of a transfer or assignment of a noneconomic residual interest to a foreign
branch of an otherwise eligible transferee. If such a transfer or assignment
were permitted, a corporate taxpayer might seek to claim that the provisions of
an applicable income tax treaty would resource excess inclusion income as
foreign source income, and that, as a consequence, any U.S. tax liability
attributable to the excess inclusion income could be offset by foreign tax
credits. Such a claim would impede the assessment or collection of U.S. tax on
excess inclusion income, contrary to the congressional purpose of assuring that
such income will be taxable in all events. See, e.g., sections 860E(a)(1), (b),
(e) and 860G(b) of the Code.

   The Treasury and the IRS have learned that certain taxpayers transferring
noneconomic residual interests to foreign branches have attempted to rely on the
formula test to obtain safe harbor treatment in an effort to impede the
assessment or collection of U.S. tax on excess inclusion income. Accordingly,
the final regulations provide that if a noneconomic residual interest is
transferred to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base of a U.S.
taxpayer, the transfer is not eligible for safe harbor treatment under either
the asset test or the formula test. The final regulations also require a
transferee to represent that it will not cause income from the noneconomic
residual interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or
fixed base.


                                      H-1-8

<PAGE>



   Section 1.860E -1(c)(8) provides computational rules that a taxpayer may use
to qualify for safe harbor status under the formula test. Section
1.860E-1(c)(8)(i) provides that the transferee is presumed to pay tax at a rate
equal to the highest rate of tax specified in section 11(b). Some commentators
were concerned that this presumed rate of taxation was too high because it does
not take into consideration taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax
rate. In light of the comments received, this provision has been amended in the
final regulations to allow certain transferees that compute their taxable income
using the alternative minimum tax rate to use the alternative minimum tax rate
applicable to corporations.
   Additionally, Sec. 1.860E-1(c)(8)(iii) provides that the present

values in the formula test are to be computed using a discount rate equal to the
applicable Federal short-term rate prescribed by section 1274(d). This is a
change from the proposed regulation and Rev. Proc. 2001-12. In those
publications the provision stated that "present values are computed using a
discount rate equal to the applicable Federal rate prescribed in section 1274(d)
compounded semiannually" and that "[a] lower discount rate may be used if the
transferee can demonstrate that it regularly borrows, in the course of its trade
or business, substantial funds at such lower rate from an unrelated third
party." The IRS and the Treasury Department have learned that, based on this
provision, certain taxpayers have been attempting to use unrealistically low or
zero interest rates to satisfy the formula test, frustrating the intent of the
test. Furthermore, the Treasury Department and the IRS believe that a rule
allowing for a rate other than a rate based on an objective index would add
unnecessary complexity to the safe harbor. As a result, the rule in the proposed
regulations that permits a transferee to use a lower discount rate, if the
transferee can demonstrate that it regularly borrows substantial funds at such
lower rate, is not included in the final regulations; and the Federal short-term
rate has been substituted for the applicable Federal rate. To simplify
taxpayers' computations, the final regulations allow use of any of the published
short-term rates, provided that the present values are computed with a
corresponding period of compounding. With the exception of the provisions
relating to transfers to foreign branches, these changes generally have the
proposed applicability date of February 4, 2000, but taxpayers may choose to
apply the interest rate formula set forth in the proposed regulation and Rev.
Proc. 2001-12 for transfers occurring before August 19, 2002.
   It is anticipated that when final regulations are adopted with respect to

[[Page 47453]]


                                      H-1-9

<PAGE>



FASITs, Sec. 1.860H-6(g) of the proposed regulations will be adopted in
substantially its present form, with the result that the final regulations
contained in this document will also govern transfers of FASIT ownership
interests with substantially the same applicability date as is contained in this
document.

Effect on Other Documents

   Rev. Proc. 2001-12 (2001-3 I.R.B. 335) is obsolete for transfers of
noneconomic residual interests in REMICs occurring on or after August 19, 2002.

Special Analyses

   It is hereby certified that these regulations will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This certification is
based on the fact that it is unlikely that a substantial number of small
entities will hold REMIC residual interests. Therefore, a Regulatory Flexibility
Analysis under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) is not
required. It has been determined that this Treasury decision is not a
significant regulatory action as defined in Executive Order 12866. Therefore, a
regulatory assessment is not required. It also has been determined that sections
553(b) and 553(d) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) do
not apply to these regulations.

Drafting Information

   The principal author of these regulations is Courtney Shepardson. However,
other personnel from the IRS and Treasury Department participated in their
development.

                  2. The Seller understands that the Purchaser has delivered to
the Trustee and the Master Servicer a transfer affidavit and agreement in the
form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit H-1. The Seller
does not know or believe that any representation contained therein is false.

                  3. The Seller has at the time of the transfer conducted a

                           4. The Purchaser has been furnished with, and has had
                  an opportunity to review (a) [a copy of the Private Placement

                  Certificates (b)] a copy of the Pooling and Servicing
                  Agreement and [b] [c] such other information concerning the
                  Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and the Depositor as has been
                  requested by the Purchaser from the Depositor or the Seller
                  and is relevant to the Purchaser's decision to purchase the
                  Certificates. The Purchaser has had any questions arising from
                  such review answered by the Depositor or the Seller to the
                  satisfaction of the Purchaser. [If the Purchaser did not
                  purchase the Certificates from the Seller in connection with
                  the initial distribution of the Certificates and was provided
                  with a copy of the Private Placement Memorandum (the
                  "Memorandum") relating to the original sale (the "Original
                  Sale") of the Certificates by the Depositor, the Purchaser
                  acknowledges that such Memorandum was provided to it by the
                  Seller, that the Memorandum was prepared by the Depositor
                  solely for use in connection with the Original Sale and the
                  Depositor did not participate in or facilitate in any way the
                  purchase of the Certificates by the Purchaser from the Seller,
                  and the Purchaser agrees that it will look solely to the
                  Seller and not to the Depositor with respect to any damage,
                  liability, claim or expense arising out of, resulting from or
                  in connection with (a) error or omission, or alleged error or
                  omission, contained in the Memorandum, or (b) any information,
                  development or event arising after the date of the
                  Memorandum.]

                           5. The Purchaser has not and will not nor has it
                  authorized or will it authorize any person to (a) offer,
                  pledge, sell, dispose of or otherwise transfer any
                  Certificate, any interest in any Certificate or any other
                  similar security to any person in any manner, (b) solicit any
                  offer to buy or to accept a pledge, disposition of other
                  transfer of any Certificate, any interest in any Certificate
                  or any other similar security from any person in any manner,
                  (c) otherwise approach or negotiate with respect to any
                  Certificate, any interest in any Certificate or any other
                  similar security with any person in any manner, (d) make any
                  general

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

                   TEXT OF AMENDMENT TO POOLING AND SERVICING
                  AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 11.01(E) FOR A
                                LIMITED GUARANTY


                                   ARTICLE XII

             Subordinate Certificate Loss Coverage; Limited Guaranty

                  Section 12.01. Subordinate Certificate Loss Coverage; Limited
Guaranty. (a) Subject to subsection (c) below, prior to the later of the third
Business Day prior to each Distribution Date or the related Determination Date,
the Master Servicer shall determine whether it or any Subservicer will be
entitled to any reimbursement pursuant to Section 4.02(a) on such Distribution
Date for Advances or Subservicer Advances previously made, (which will not be
Advances or Subservicer Advances that were made with respect to delinquencies
which were subsequently determined to be Excess Special Hazard Losses, Excess
Fraud Losses, Excess Bankruptcy Losses or Extraordinary Losses) and, if so, the
Master Servicer shall demand payment from Residential Funding of an amount equal
to the amount of any Advances or Subservicer Advances reimbursed pursuant to
Section 4.02(a), to the extent such Advances or Subservicer Advances have not
been included in the amount of the Realized Loss in the related Mortgage Loan,
and shall distribute the same to the Class B Certificateholders in the same
manner as if such amount were to be distributed pursuant to Section 4.02(a).

                  (b) Subject to subsection (c) below, prior to the later of the
third Business Day prior to each Distribution Date or the related Determination
Date, the Master Servicer shall determine whether any Realized Losses (other
than Excess Special Hazard Losses, Excess Bankruptcy Losses, Excess Fraud Losses
and Extraordinary Losses) will be allocated to the Class B Certificates on such
Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.05, and, if so, the Master Servicer
shall demand payment from Residential Funding of the amount of such Realized
Loss and shall distribute the same to the Class B Certificateholders in the same
manner as if such amount were to be distributed pursuant to Section 4.02(a);
provided, however, that the amount of such demand in respect of any Distribution
Date shall in no event be greater than the sum of (i) the additional amount of
Accrued Certificate Interest that would have been paid for the Class B
Certificateholders on such Distribution Date had such Realized Loss or Losses
not occurred plus (ii) the amount of the reduction in the Certificate Principal
Balances of the Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date due to such
Realized Loss or Losses. Notwithstanding such payment, such Realized Losses
shall be deemed to have been borne by the Certificateholders for purposes of
Section 4.05. Excess Special Hazard Losses, Excess Fraud Losses, Excess
Bankruptcy Losses and Extraordinary Losses allocated to the Class B Certificates
will not be covered by the Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation.

                  (c) Demands for payments pursuant to this Section shall be
made prior to the later of the third Business Day prior to each Distribution
Date or the related Determination Date by the Master Servicer with written
notice thereof to the Trustee. The maximum amount that


                                       K-1

<PAGE>



Residential Funding shall be required to pay pursuant to this Section on any
Distribution Date (the "Amount Available") shall be equal to the lesser of (X)
minus the sum of (i) all previous payments made under subsections (a) and (b)
hereof and (ii) all draws under the Limited Guaranty made in lieu of such
payments as described below in subsection (d) and (Y) the then outstanding
Certificate Principal Balances of the Class B Certificates, or such lower amount
as may be established pursuant to Section 12.02. Residential Funding's
obligations as described in this Section are referred to herein as the
"Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation."

                  (d) The Trustee will promptly notify General Motors Acceptance
Corporation of any failure of Residential Funding to make any payments hereunder
and shall demand payment pursuant to the limited guaranty (the "Limited
Guaranty"), executed by General Motors Acceptance Corporation, of Residential
Funding's obligation to make payments pursuant to this Section, in an amount
equal to the lesser of (i) the Amount Available and (ii) such required payments,
by delivering to General Motors Acceptance Corporation a written demand for
payment by wire transfer, not later than the second Business Day prior to the
Distribution Date for such month, with a copy to the Master Servicer.

                  (e) All payments made by Residential Funding pursuant to this
Section or amounts paid under the Limited Guaranty shall be deposited directly
in the Certificate Account, for distribution on the Distribution Date for such
month to the Class B Certificateholders.

                  (f) The Depositor shall have the option, in its sole
discretion, to substitute for either or both of the Limited Guaranty or the
Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation another instrument in the form of a
corporate guaranty, an irrevocable letter of credit, a surety bond, insurance
policy or similar instrument or a reserve fund; provided that (i) the Depositor
obtains (subject to the provisions of Section 10.01(f) as if the Depositor was
substituted for the Master Servicer solely for the purposes of such provision)
an Opinion of Counsel (which need not be an opinion of Independent counsel) to
the effect that obtaining such substitute corporate guaranty, irrevocable letter
of credit, surety bond, insurance policy or similar instrument or reserve fund
will not cause either (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund,
including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited
transactions" under Section 860(F)(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after
the startup date" under Section 860(G)(d)(1) of the Code or (b) the Trust Fund
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding,
and (ii) no such substitution shall be made unless (A) the substitute Limited
Guaranty or Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation is for an initial amount not
less than the then current Amount Available and contains provisions that are in
all material respects equivalent to the original Limited Guaranty or Subordinate
Certificate Loss Obligation (including that no portion of the fees,
reimbursements or other obligations under any such instrument will be borne by
the Trust Fund), (B) the long term debt obligations of any obligor of any
substitute Limited Guaranty or Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation (if not
supported by the Limited Guaranty) shall be rated at least the lesser of (a) the
rating of the long term debt obligations of General Motors Acceptance
Corporation as of the date of issuance of the Limited Guaranty and (b) the
rating of the long term debt obligations of General Motors Acceptance
Corporation at the date of such substitution and (C) the Depositor obtains
written confirmation from each nationally recognized credit rating agency that
rated the Class B Certificates at the request of the Depositor that such
substitution shall not lower the rating on the Class B Certificates below the
lesser of (a) the then-

                                     K-2
<PAGE>

current rating assigned to the Class B Certificates by such rating agency and
(b) the original rating assigned to the Class B Certificates by such rating
agency. Any replacement of the Limited Guaranty or Subordinate Certificate Loss
Obligation pursuant to this Section shall be accompanied by a written Opinion of
Counsel to the substitute guarantor or obligor, addressed to the Master Servicer
and the Trustee, that such substitute instrument constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the substitute guarantor or obligor, enforceable in
accordance with its terms, and concerning such other matters as the Master
Servicer and the Trustee shall reasonably request. Neither the Depositor, the
Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be obligated to substitute for or replace
the Limited Guaranty or Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation under any
circumstance.

                  Section 12.02. Amendments Relating to the Limited Guaranty.
Notwithstanding Sections 11.01 or 12.01: (i) the provisions of this Article XII
may be amended, superseded or deleted, (ii) the Limited Guaranty or Subordinate
Certificate Loss Obligation may be amended, reduced or canceled, and (iii) any
other provision of this Agreement which is related or incidental to the matters
described in this Article XII may be amended in any manner; in each case by
written instrument executed or consented to by the Depositor and Residential
Funding but without the consent of any Certificateholder and without the consent
of the Master Servicer or the Trustee being required unless any such amendment
would impose any additional obligation on, or otherwise adversely affect the
interests of, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable; provided that
the Depositor shall also obtain a letter from each nationally recognized credit
rating agency that rated the Class B Certificates at the request of the
Depositor to the effect that such amendment, reduction, deletion or cancellation
will not lower the rating on the Class B Certificates below the lesser of (a)
the then-current rating assigned to the Class B Certificates by such rating
agency and (b) the original rating assigned to the Class B Certificates by such
rating agency, unless (A) the Holder of 100% of the Class B Certificates is
Residential Funding or an Affiliate of Residential Funding, or (B) such
amendment, reduction, deletion or cancellation is made in accordance with
Section 11.01(e) and, provided further that the Depositor obtains (subject to
the provisions of Section 10.01(f) as if the Depositor was substituted for the
Master Servicer solely for the purposes of such provision), in the case of a
material amendment or supersession (but not a reduction, cancellation or
deletion of the Limited Guaranty or the Subordinate Certificate Loss
Obligation), an Opinion of Counsel (which need not be an opinion of Independent
counsel) to the effect that any such amendment or supersession will not cause
either (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without
limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section
860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code or (b) the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. A copy of any such
instrument shall be provided to the Trustee and the Master Servicer together
with an Opinion of Counsel that such amendment complies with this Section 12.02.

manner, or taken any other action, that would constitute a distribution of the
Rule 144A Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"), or that would render the disposition of the Rule 144A Securities a
violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto,
and that the Seller has not offered the Rule 144A Securities to any person other
than the Buyer or another "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in Rule
144A under the 1933 Act.

                  2. The Buyer warrants and represents to, and covenants with,

         sophisticated institutional investor having such knowledge and
         experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of
         evaluating the merits and risks of investment in the Rule 144A
         Securities.

                           c. The Buyer has been furnished with all information

                           d. Neither the Buyer nor anyone acting on its behalf
         has offered, transferred, pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of the
         Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any
         other similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a
         transfer, pledge or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities, any

         similar security with, any person in any manner, or made any general
         solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or
         taken any other action, that would constitute a distribution of the
         Rule 144A Securities under the 1933 Act or that would render the
         disposition of the Rule 144A Securities a violation of Section 5 of the
         1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto, nor will it act, nor
         has it authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in such
         manner with respect to the Rule 144A Securities.

         reliance on Rule 144A, or (ii) pursuant to another exemption from
         registration under the 1933 Act.

are relying and will continue to rely on the statements made herein because one
or more sales to the Buyer may be in reliance on Rule 144A.

  ___         ___       Will the Buyer be purchasing the Rule 144A
  Yes         No        Securities only for the Buyer's own account?

             6. If the answer to the foregoing question is "no", the Buyer
agrees that, in connection with any purchase of securities sold to the Buyer for
the account of a third party (including any separate account) in reliance on
Rule 144A, the Buyer will only purchase for the account of a third party that at
the time is a "qualified institutional buyer" within the meaning of Rule 144A.
In addition, the Buyer agrees that the Buyer will not purchase securities for a
third party unless the Buyer has obtained a current representation letter from
such third party or taken other appropriate steps contemplated by Rule 144A to
conclude that such third party independently meets the definition of "qualified
institutional buyer" set forth in Rule 144A.

             7. The Buyer will notify each of the parties to which this
certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein.
Until such notice is given, the Buyer's purchase of Rule 144A Securities will
constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of such
purchase.
