omitted by it as Co-Trustee, any court may in its discretion require the
filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of
the suit, and that the court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in the suit,
having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made

Trust Estate (other than the Transferred Assets) shall be vested at all times
in the Trust as a separate legal entity except where applicable law in any
jurisdiction requires title to any part of the Owner Trust Estate to be vested
in a trustee or trustees, in which case title shall be deemed to be vested in
the Owner Trustee, Co-Trustee, a co-owner trustee and/or a separate trustee,
as the case may be, and (ii) all of the Transferred Assets shall be vested at
all times in the Co-Trustee.

          (b) The Transferor shall not have legal title to any part of the
Owner Trust Estate. No transfer by operation of law or otherwise of any
interest of the Transferor shall operate to terminate this Agreement or the
trusts hereunder or entitle any transferee to an accounting or to the transfer
to it of any part of the Owner Trust Estate.

     "Securities Act"), and is


                                      14


<PAGE>

     exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act

     buyers for whom it is authorized to act, (B) an "accredited investor" as
     defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act , or (C) a Person
     involved in the organization or operation of the Trust or an affiliate of
     such Person within the meaning of Rule 3a-7 of the 1940 Act, as amended

          (ii) Such Person understands that such Ownership Interest has not
     been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may be
     offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred only to a person whom the
     seller reasonably believes is (A) a "qualified institutional buyer," (B)
     "an accredited investor" or (C) a Person involved in the organization or
     operation of the Trust or an affiliate of such Person, in each case in a
     transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A under the Securities
     Act or that is otherwise exempt from registration under the Securities
     Act and in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of
     the United States.

          (iii) Such Person shall comply with the provisions of Section

          (i) represent and warrant, in writing, to the Owner Trustee and the
     Registrar and any of their respective successors, in accordance with
     Exhibit B hereto, that the Prospective Transferor is not (A) an "employee
     benefit plan" within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA that is subject
     to Title I of ERISA, (B) a plan within the meaning of and subject to
     Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code (any such plan or employee benefit plan, a
     "Plan") or (C) any entity, including an insurance company separate
     account or general account, whose underlying assets include plan assets
     by reason of a plan's investment in the entity or otherwise under ERISA,
     and is not directly or indirectly purchasing such Ownership Interest on
     behalf of, as investment manager of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee
     of, or with assets of a Plan; or

          (ii) furnish to the Owner Trustee and the Registrar and any of their
     respective successors an opinion of counsel acceptable to such persons
     that (A) the proposed issuance or transfer of such Ownership Interest to
     such Prospective Transferor will not cause any assets of the Trust to be
     deemed assets of a Plan, and (B) the proposed holding or transfer of such
     Ownership Interest will not cause the Owner Trustee or the Registrar or
     any of their respective successors to be a fiduciary of a Plan within the
     meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA and will not give rise to a transaction
     described in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975(c)(1) of the Code for
     which a statutory, regulatory or administrative exemption is unavailable.

          (d) Neither the Ownership Interest nor any beneficial ownership
interest therein may be transferred to HFC or any Seller, or to any non-United
States Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, and any purported
transfer in violation of this Section 3.13(d) shall be null and void ab
initio.

          (e) The Prospective Transferor, other than the initial Transferor or
an affiliate of the initial Transferor, shall obtain an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that, as a matter of federal income tax law, such Prospective
Transferor is permitted to accept the transfer of the Ownership Interest.

          (f) The Ownership Interest may not be pledged or transferred without
delivery to the Registrar of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
transfer would not jeopardize the tax treatment of the Trust, would not
subject the Trust to an entity-level tax, and would not jeopardize the status
of the Notes as debt for all purposes.

          (g) No pledge or transfer of the Ownership Interest shall be
effective unless such purchase or transfer (i) results in the Ownership
Interest being owned by a single beneficial owner and (ii) is accompanied by
an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Owner Trustee, which Opinion of
Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Delaware
Trustee, the Co-Trustee, the Registrar or the Master Servicer, to the effect
such pledge or transfer will not cause the Trust to be treated for federal
income tax purposes as a taxable mortgage pool, association or a publicly
traded partnership taxable as a corporation.

Respect to Certain Matters. With respect to the following matters, the Owner
Trustee shall not take action, and neither the Transferor nor the Indenture

least 30 days before the taking of such action, the Owner Trustee shall have
notified the Transferor and the Indenture Trustee in writing of the proposed
action and neither the Transferor nor the Indenture Trustee shall have
notified the Owner Trustee in writing prior to the 30th day after such notice
is given that the Transferor has withheld consent or the Transferor or the
Indenture Trustee has provided alternative direction, and (iii) in the case of
clauses (b), (c), (d), (g), (h), (i), (j), (k), (l) and (o), the Rating
Agencies have confirmed that the taking of the proposed action would not
result in a withdrawal or a reduction of the then-current ratings of the
Notes.

          (a) the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by the Trust (except
claims or lawsuits brought in connection with the collection of the Home
Equity Loans) and the compromise of any action, claim or lawsuit brought by or
against the Trust (except with respect to the aforementioned claims or
lawsuits for collection of the Home Equity Loans);

          (b) the election by the Trust to file an amendment to the
Certificate of Trust (unless such amendment is required to be filed under the
Statutory Trust Statute);

          (c) the amendment or other change to this Agreement or any
Transaction Document in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is

          (d) the amendment or other change to this Agreement or any

operating expenses and liabilities of any other Person. The Trust shall
maintain appropriate minutes or other records of all appropriate actions and
shall maintain its office separate from the offices of the Depositor or HFC,
and any of their respective affiliates. This Agreement and the Transaction

to the creation, operation and termination of the Trust. For accounting
purposes, the Trust shall be treated as an entity separate and distinct from
the Transferor. The pricing and other material terms of all transactions and
agreements to which the Trust is a party shall be intrinsically fair to all
parties thereto.

     The Owner Trustee shall not have the power, except upon the written

and shall not take, any Bankruptcy Action with respect to the Trust or direct
the Owner Trustee to take any Bankruptcy Action with respect to the Trust.

     Section 4.3 Action by Transferor with Respect to Bankruptcy. To the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Owner Trustee shall not have

shall survive for one year and one day following the termination of this
Agreement.

     Section 4.4 Restrictions on Transferor's Power. The Transferor shall not
direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such
action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the

obligated to follow any such direction, if given.

                                  ARTICLE V

                  APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

     Section 5.1 Establishment of Trust Account. The Owner Trustee shall cause
the Indenture Trustee to establish and maintain with the Indenture Trustee for
the benefit of the Trust one or more Eligible Accounts in accordance with the
Indenture.

     Section 5.2 Application of Trust Funds.

          (a) On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall make the
distributions and payments set forth in Section 5.01 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account.

          (b) On or before the third Business Day following each Payment Date,
the Paying Agent shall send to DTC the statement provided to the Paying Agent
by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement with respect to such Payment Date.

          (c) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust's
payment (or allocations of income) to the Transferor, such tax shall reduce
the amount otherwise distributable to the Transferor in accordance with this
Section 5.2. The Paying Agent is hereby authorized and directed to retain from
amounts otherwise distributable to the Transferor sufficient funds for the
payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization
shall not prevent the Paying Agent from contesting any such tax in appropriate
proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending
the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed
with respect to the Transferor shall be treated as cash distributed to the
Transferor at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the
appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax
is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a
non-U.S. Transferor), the Paying Agent may in its sole discretion withhold
such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c). In the event that the
Transferor wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner
Trustee and the Paying Agent shall reasonably cooperate with the Transferor in
making such claim so long as the Transferor agrees to reimburse the Owner
Trustee and the Paying Agent for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

     Section 5.3 Method of Payment. Distributions required to be made to the
Transferor on any Payment Date shall be made to the Transferor of record on
the preceding Record Date in the manner set forth in Section 5.01 of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement.

     Section 5.4 [Reserved].

     Section 5.5 Accounting and Reports to the Transferor, the Internal
Revenue Service and Others. The Owner Trustee shall deliver (or cause to be
delivered) to the Transferor such information, reports or statements as may be
required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be
required to enable the Transferor to prepare its respective federal and state
income tax returns. Consistent with the Trust's characterization as a
disregarded entity within the meaning of Treasury regulations Section
301.7701-2(a), no federal income tax return


                                      20


<PAGE>


shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless either (a) the Trust or the
Transferor shall receive an Opinion of Counsel that, based on a change in
applicable law occurring after the date hereof, the Code requires such a
filing or (b) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust is
required to file such a return. The Master Servicer shall prepare or shall
cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Trust and
shall remit such returns to the Transferor at least five days before such
returns are due to be filed. Such returns shall be filed by, or at the
direction of, the Master Servicer with the appropriate tax authorities. In no
event shall the Transferor be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of
the Trust arising out of the application of any tax law, including federal,
state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or
measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto
or arising from a failure to comply therewith), except for any such liability,
cost or expense attributable to the Transferor's breach of its obligations
under this Agreement.

     Section 5.6 Signature on Returns.

     The Owner Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust the tax returns of
the Trust, if any, unless applicable law requires the Transferor to sign such
documents, in which case such documents shall be signed by the Transferor.

                                  ARTICLE VI

                     AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OWNER TRUSTEE

     Section 6.1 General Authority. The Owner Trustee is authorized and
directed to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered the
Notes, and the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and
each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated
by the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and any other
agreement or instrument described in Article III, in each case, in such form
as the Owner Trustee shall approve, as evidenced conclusively by the Owner
Trustee's execution thereof, and, on behalf of the Trust, to direct the
Indenture Trustee to authenticate and deliver each Class of Notes in its
respective Initial Note Principal Amount. In addition to the foregoing, the
Owner Trustee is authorized, but shall not be obligated, to take all actions
required of the Trust pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

     Section 6.2 General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to
discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to which the Trust
is a party and to administer the Trust in the interest of the Transferor,
subject to the Transaction Documents and in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be
deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under
the Transaction Documents to the extent the Master Servicer has agreed in the
Sale and Servicing Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of
the Owner Trustee hereunder or under any Transaction Document, and the Owner
Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Master
Servicer to carry out its respective obligations under the Sale and Servicing
Agreement.

     Section 6.3 Action upon Instruction.

          (a) Subject to Article IV herein and in accordance with the terms of
the Transaction Documents, the Transferor may by written instruction direct
the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust but only to the extent
consistent with the limited purpose of the Trust. Such direction may be
exercised at any time by written instruction of the Transferor pursuant to
Article IV.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall not be
required to take any action hereunder or under any Transaction Document if the
Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by
counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the
Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Transaction
Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

          (c) Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between
alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this
Agreement or under any Transaction Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly
give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to
the Transferor requesting instruction from the Transferor as to the course of
action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith
in accordance with any written instruction of the Transferor received, the
Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If
the Owner Trustee shall not have received


                                     21


<PAGE>


appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter
period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be
necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take
or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or
the Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the
Transferor, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or
inaction.

          (d) In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the
application of any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document or
any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to
be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this
Agreement provides no direction to the Owner Trustee or is silent or is
incomplete as to the course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to
take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give
notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the
Transferor requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee
acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such
instruction received from the Transferor, the Owner Trustee shall not be
liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner
Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such
notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified
in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall
be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent
with this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in
the best interest of the Transferor, and shall have no liability to any Person
for such action or inaction.

     Section 6.4 No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement, the
Transaction Documents or in Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any
duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register,
record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate, or to
otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with,
any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee or the Trust is a
party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement, any
Transaction Document or in any document or written instruction received by the
Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3; and no implied duties or obligations
shall be read into this Agreement or any Transaction Document against the
Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any
financing or continuation statement in any public office at anytime or to
otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien
granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any Securities and Exchange
Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Agreement or any Transaction
Document. The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost
and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any
liens on any part of the Owner Trust Estate that result from actions by, or
claims against, the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity that are not
related to the ownership or the administration of the Owner Trust Estate.

     Section 6.5 No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions.
The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or
otherwise deal with any part of the Owner Trust Estate except (i) in
accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the
Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the
Transaction Documents and (iii) in accordance with any document or instruction
delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3 above. The Owner
Trustee shall not be required to take any action under this Agreement if the
Owner Trustee shall reasonably determine or shall have


                                      23


<PAGE>


been advised by counsel that such action is contrary to the terms of this
Agreement or is otherwise contrary to law.

     Section 6.6 Restrictions. The Owner Trustee shall not take any action (a)
that is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 2.3
hereof or (b) that, to the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would result
in the Trust's becoming taxable as a corporation for Federal income tax
purposes. The Transferor shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action
that would violate the provisions of this Section 6.6.

                                 ARTICLE VII

             CONCERNING THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND THE DELAWARE TRUSTEE

     Section 7.1 Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. Each of the Owner Trustee
and the Delaware Trustee accepts the trusts hereby created and agrees to
perform its duties hereunder with respect to such trusts but only upon the
terms of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. Each of the Owner
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee also agrees to disburse all moneys actually
received by it constituting part of the Owner Trust Estate upon the terms of
the Transaction Documents and this Agreement. Neither the Owner Trustee nor
the Delaware Trustee shall be answerable or accountable hereunder or under any
Transaction Document under any circumstances, except (i) for its own willful
misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or (ii) in the case of the
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 7.3 below
expressly made by the Owner Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may
be. In particular, but not by way of limitation (and subject to the exceptions
set forth in the preceding sentence):

          (a) neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be
liable for any error of judgment made by a responsible officer of the Owner
Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable;

          (b) no provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document shall
require the Owner Trustee or the Delaware Trustee to expend or risk funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its
rights or powers hereunder or under any Transaction Document if the Owner
Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, shall have reasonable
grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured or provided to it;

          (c) under no circumstances shall the Owner Trustee or the Delaware
Trustee be liable for indebtedness evidenced by or arising under any of the
Transaction Documents, including the principal of and interest on the Notes;

          (d) neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be
responsible for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement
or for the due execution hereof by the Depositor or for the form, character,
genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of any of the Owner Trust Estate
or for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of the Transaction
Documents, other than the genuineness of the signature and countersignature of
the Owner Trustee on the certificate of authentication on the Ownership
Interest, and the Owner Trustee and the Delaware Trustee shall in no event
assume or incur any liability, duty, or obligation to any Noteholder or the
Transferor other than as expressly provided for herein and in the Transaction
Documents;

          (e) neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be
liable for the default or misconduct of the Indenture Trustee or the Master
Servicer under any of the Transaction Documents or otherwise and neither the
Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall have any obligation or liability
to perform the obligations of the Trust under this Agreement or the
Transaction Documents that are required to be performed by the Indenture
Trustee under


                                      25


<PAGE>


the Indenture, the Master Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or
the Registrar or any Paying Agent hereunder;

          (f) neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be
under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by
this Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this
Agreement or otherwise or in relation to this Agreement or any Transaction
Document, at the request, order or direction of the Transferor, unless the
Transferor has offered to the Owner Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the
case may be, security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs,
expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by the Owner Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, therein or thereby. The right of the
Owner Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, to perform any
discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document
shall not be construed as a duty, and the Owner Trustee and the Delaware
Trustee answerable for other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct
in the performance of any such act;

          (g) notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
Delaware Trustee will not be required to take any action in any jurisdiction
other than in the State of Delaware if the taking of such action (i) requires
the registration with, licensing by or the taking of any other similar action
in respect of, any state or other governmental authority or agency of any
jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware by or with respect to the
Delaware Trustee (other than any registration, licensing or taking of any
other similar action that at the time of such action is in effect or has been
taken); (ii) results in any fee, tax or other governmental charge under the
laws of any jurisdiction or any political subdivisions thereof in existence on
the date hereof other than the State of Delaware becoming payable by the
Delaware Trustee; or (iii) subjects the Delaware Trustee to personal
jurisdiction in any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware for causes
of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation of the transactions
by the Delaware Trustee contemplated hereby. The Delaware Trustee will be
entitled to obtain advice of counsel (which advice will be an expense of the
Transferor) to determine whether any action required to be taken pursuant to
the Agreement results in the consequences described in clauses (i), (ii) and
(iii) of the preceding sentence. If said counsel advises the Delaware Trustee
that such action will result in such consequences, the Transferor will appoint
an additional trustee pursuant to Section 10.5 hereof to proceed with such
action; and

          (h) neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be
liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in
accordance with the instructions of the Depositor or any Owner to the extent
such action or direction is permitted by the Transaction Documents.

     With respect to the Noteholders, the Owner Trustee undertakes to perform
or observe only such of the covenants and obligations of the Owner Trustee as
are expressly set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants or
obligations with respect to the Noteholders shall be read into this Agreement
or the other Transaction Documents against the Owner Trustee. The Owner
Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the Noteholders, and
shall not be liable to any such person for the failure of the Trust to perform
its obligations to such persons other than as a result of the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of the Owner Trustee in the performance of its express
obligations under this Agreement.

          (iii) Neither the execution nor the delivery by it of this Agreement
     nor the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby nor
     compliance by it with any of the terms or provisions hereof will
     contravene any federal law, governmental rule or regulation governing the
     banking or trust powers of the Owner Trustee or any judgment or order
     binding on it, or constitute any default under its charter documents or
     by-laws or any indenture, mortgage, contract, agreement or instrument to
     which it is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound;

          (iv) The execution, delivery, authentication and performance by the
     Owner Trustee of this Agreement will not require the authorization,

          (iii) Neither the execution nor the delivery by it of this Agreement

Delaware Trustee may accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of
directors or other governing body of any corporate party as conclusive
evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the
same is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter the method of the

certificate, signed by the president or any vice president or by the treasurer
or other authorized officer of the relevant party, as to such fact or matter

the Delaware Trustee shall be liable for the conduct or misconduct of their
respective agents or attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have been
selected by the Owner Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be,
with reasonable care, and (ii) may, at the expense of HFC, consult with
counsel, accountants and other skilled persons to be selected with reasonable
care and employed by them. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee
shall be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in
accordance with the opinion or advice of any such counsel, accountants or
other such persons and not contrary to this Agreement or any Transaction
Document.

     Section 7.5 Not Acting in Individual Capacity. Except as provided in this
Article VII, in accepting the trusts hereby created, The Bank of New York acts
solely as Owner Trustee hereunder, and The Bank of New York (Delaware) acts

and all Persons having any claim against the Owner Trustee or the Delaware
Trustee by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any
Transaction Document shall look only to the Owner Trust Estate for payment or
satisfaction thereof.

     Section 7.6 Owner Trustee Nor Delaware Trustee Liable for the Ownership
Interest or the Home Equity Loans. The recitals contained herein and in the

for the correctness thereof. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware
Trustee makes any representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Agreement, of any Transaction Document or of the Ownership Interest (other
than as specified in Section 7.3 hereof) or the Notes, or of any Home Equity
Loans or related documents. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee
shall at any time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to
the legality, validity and enforceability of any Home Equity Loan, or the
perfection and priority of any security interest created by any Home Equity
Loan or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with
respect to the sufficiency of the Owner Trust Estate or its ability to
generate the payments to be distributed to the Transferor under this Agreement
or to


                                      29

the Noteholders under the Indenture, including, without limitation: the
existence, condition and ownership of any Mortgaged Property; the existence
and enforceability of any insurance thereon; the existence and contents of any
Home Equity Loan on any computer or other record thereof; the validity of the
assignment of any Home Equity Loan to the Trust or of any intervening
assignment; the completeness of any Home Equity Loan; the performance or
enforcement of any Home Equity Loan; the compliance by the Depositor or the
Master Servicer with any warranty or representation made under any Transaction
Document or in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or
representation or any action of the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee or the
Master Servicer or any subservicer taken in the name of the Owner Trustee or
the Delaware Trustee.

     Section 7.7 Owner Trustee and Delaware Trustee May Own the Ownership
Interest and the Notes. The Bank of New York and The Bank of New York
(Delaware) in their individual or any other capacities may become the owner or
pledgee of the Ownership Interest or the Notes and may deal with the

transactions with the same rights as they would have if they were not the
Owner Trustee and Delaware Trustee, respectively.

     Section 7.8 Licenses. The Owner Trustee shall cause the Trust to use its
best efforts to obtain and maintain the effectiveness of any licenses required
in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby until such time as the Trust
shall terminate in accordance with the terms hereof.

Trustee, as applicable, shall be subject to the approval of HFC, which

                        TERMINATION OF TRUST AGREEMENT

     Section 9.1 Termination of Trust Agreement.

          (a) This Agreement (other than Article VIII) shall terminate and the
Trust shall dissolve and terminate pursuant to the Statutory Trust Statute and
be of no further force or effect upon notice to the Indenture Trustee of the
earliest of (i) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Home Equity

terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor (y) entitle such Transferor'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 all or any part of
the Trust or Owner Trust Estate nor (z) otherwise affect the rights,
obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.

          (b) The Ownership Interest shall be subject to an early redemption
or termination at the option of the Master Servicer in the manner and subject
to the provisions of Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

          (c) Except as provided in Sections 9.1(a) and (b) above, neither the

          (d) If any Ownership Interest is in certificated form, notice of any
termination of the Trust, specifying the Payment Date upon which the
Transferor shall surrender their Ownership Interest to the Paying Agent for
payment of the final distributions and cancellation, shall be given by the
Registrar to the Transferor and the Rating Agencies mailed within five
Business Days of receipt by the Registrar of notice of such termination
pursuant to (a) or (b) above, which notice given by the Owner Trustee shall
state (i) the Payment Date upon or with respect to which final payment of the
Registrar shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Ownership
Interest at the office of the Paying Agent therein designated, (ii) the amount
of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable
to such Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon
submission of a claim for and acknowledgment of final distribution under the

distribution, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other
assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement.

          (e) Upon the winding up of the Trust and its termination, the
Delaware Trustee and the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificate of Trust to

            SUCCESSOR OWNER TRUSTEES AND ADDITIONAL OWNER TRUSTEES;
                          SUCCESSOR DELAWARE TRUSTEES

     Section 10.1 Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee and Delaware
Trustee. (a) The Owner Trustee shall at all times be a corporation or national
banking association authorized to exercise corporate powers; having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or
examination by Federal or state authorities; and having (or having a parent
which has) a long-term rating of at least "Baa3" (or its equivalent) by
Moody's and "A" (or its equivalent) by Standard & Poor's. If such corporation
shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to
the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for
the purpose 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 Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 10.1, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in Section 10.2.

          (b) The Delaware Trustee shall at all times be an entity satisfying
the provisions of Section 3807(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Statute. If
at any time the Delaware Trustee ceases to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Delaware Trustee will resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.02.

     Section 10.2 Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee.
The Owner Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may at any time resign and be
discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to
the Trust, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies. Upon receiving such
notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Owner
Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable, by written instrument, in
duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning
trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee
or Delaware shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within
30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning trustee
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable.

     If at any time the Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 above and shall
fail to resign after written request therefor by the Indenture Trustee, or if
at any time the Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall be legally unable to
act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner
Trustee or of its property, or of the Delaware Trustee or its property, shall
be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner
Trustee or of its property or affairs, or of the Delaware Trustee or of its
property or affairs, for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then the Indenture Trustee may, and, at the written direction of
the Majority Noteholder, shall, remove the Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee,
as applicable. If the Indenture Trustee shall remove the Owner Trustee or
Delaware Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence,
the Indenture Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee or
Delaware Trustee, as applicable, by written instrument in duplicate, one copy
of


                                      34


<PAGE>


which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing trustee so removed and one
copy to the successor trustee and payment of all fees owed to the outgoing
trustee.

     Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee and
appointment of a successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable,
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 10.2 shall not become
effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee pursuant to
Section 10.3 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing
trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall provide notice of such resignation or
removal of the Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee to each of the Rating
Agencies.

     Section 10.3 Successor Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee or Delaware
Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.2 shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver to the Indenture Trustee and to its predecessor trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the predecessor 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 under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as
Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as the case may be. The predecessor Owner
Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall upon payment of its fees and expenses
deliver to the successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as the case may
be, all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement;
and the Indenture Trustee and the predecessor Owner Trustee or Delaware
Trustee, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver such instruments and do
such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly
vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as
the case may be, all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations.

     No successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall accept appointment
as provided in this Section 10.3 unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, shall be
eligible pursuant to Section 10.1 above.

     Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee or Delaware
Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 10.3, the Indenture
Trustee shall mail notice of the successor of such Owner Trustee or Delaware
Trustee to the Transferor, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies. If the
Indenture Trustee fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as the case
may be, the successor Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall cause such
notice to be mailed at the expense of the Indenture Trustee.

     Any successor Delaware Trustee shall promptly file a certificate of
amendment identifying the name and principal plan of business of the Delaware
Trustee in the State of Delaware.

     Section 10.4 Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee or Delaware
Trustee. Any corporation into which the Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee may
be merged or converted or with which either may be consolidated or any
corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
the Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee
or Delaware Trustee,


                                      35


<PAGE>


as the case may be, hereunder, provided such corporation shall be eligible
pursuant to Section 10.1 above, without the execution or filing of any
instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided further that the
Owner Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, shall mail notice of
such merger or consolidation to the Depositor, the Co-Trustee, HFC and the
Rating Agencies.

     Section 10.5 Appointment of Co-Owner Trustee or Separate Owner Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the
purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Owner Trust Estate or any Mortgaged Property may at the time be
located, the Owner Trustee shall have the power and shall execute and deliver
all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as co-owner trustee,
jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate owner trustee or separate owner
trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such
Person, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and,
subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable. No co-owner trustee or separate trustee under this Section 10.5
shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Owner
Trustee pursuant to Section 10.1 above and no notice of the appointment of any
co-owner trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section
10.3 above.

     The Owner Trustee hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee for the purpose
of establishing and maintaining the Collection Account and making the
distributions therefrom to the Persons entitled thereto pursuant to Section
5.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

     Each separate trustee and co-owner trustee shall, to the extent permitted
by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provision and
conditions:

          (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
     upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed
     by the Owner Trustee and such separate owner trustee or co-owner trustee
     jointly (it being understood that such separate owner trustee or co-owner
     trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee
     joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any
     jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the
     Owner 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 or any portion thereof in
     any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such
     separate trustee or co-owner trustee but solely at the direction of the
     Owner Trustee;

          (ii) no owner trustee under this Agreement shall be personally
     liable by reason of any act or omission of any other owner trustee under
     this Agreement; and

          (iii) the Owner Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or
     remove any separate trustee or co-owner trustee.

     Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be
deemed to have been given to the separate trustees and co-owner trustees, as
if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate owner
trustee or co-owner trustee, other than this Agreement,


                                      36


<PAGE>


shall refer to this Agreement and to the conditions of this Article X. Each
separate trustee and co-owner trustee, upon its acceptance of appointment,
shall be vested with the estates specified in its instrument of appointment,
either jointly with the Owner 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 Owner Trustee.
Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee.

     Any separate trustee or co-owner trustee may at any time appoint the
Owner Trustee as 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 owner trustee or
co-owner 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 Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 11.1 Supplements and Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by
the Depositor, HFC, the Owner Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and the Co-Trustee
with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies and the Indenture Trustee,
but without the consent of any of the Noteholders, the Transferor or the
Indenture Trustee, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any
provisions in this Agreement or for the purpose of adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions in this Agreement
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Transferor;
provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Noteholder or the Transferor. An amendment described above shall be deemed not
to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder or
the Transferor if the party requesting the amendment satisfies the Rating
Agency Condition with respect to such amendment.

     This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
HFC, the Owner Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and the Co-Trustee with the prior
written consent of the Rating Agencies, the Indenture Trustee, the Majority
Noteholder and the Transferor, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement
or modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Transferor;
provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any
manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of
payments on the Home Equity Loans or distributions that shall be required to
be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Transferor or (b) reduce the
aforesaid Percentage Interests required to consent to any such amendment,
without the consent of the holders of all the outstanding Notes; and provided
further, that no such amendment will be effective unless such action will not,
as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Noteholders. The Depositor shall join in any such
amendment approved as provided in the preceding sentence so long as such
amendment is not adverse to the interests of the Depositor.

     Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, no amendment to this
Agreement may be made that affects the rights and liabilities of the Delaware
Trustee without the written consent of the Delaware Trustee.

     Promptly after the execution of any such amendment, the Owner Trustee
shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to the
Indenture Trustee and each of the Rating Agencies.
