         Section 3.03 MONEY FOR PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST; PAYING AGENT. (a)
As provided in Section 3.01, all payments of amounts due and payable with
respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment
Account pursuant to Section 3.01 shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the
Indenture Trustee or by the Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the
Payment Account for payments of Notes shall be paid over to the Issuer except as
provided in this Section 3.03.

         The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture
Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the Indenture
Trustee acts as Paying Agent it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of
this Section 3.03, that such Paying Agent will:

                  (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due
         with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons
         entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or
         otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such
         Persons as herein provided;

                  (ii) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the
         Issuer of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment
         required to be made with respect to the Notes;



                                        5

<PAGE>



                  (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default,
         upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the
         Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

                  (iv) immediately resign as Paying Agent and forthwith pay to
         the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of
         Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met
         by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and

                  (v) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to
         the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any
         applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any
         applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.

         The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer
Request direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in
trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon
the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and
upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

         Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money
held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of
any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for one year
after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust
and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request; and the Holder of such Note shall
thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for
payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer),
and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to
such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture
Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment,
shall at the expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in
an Authorized Newspaper published in the English language, notice that such
money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall
not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed
balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. The Indenture
Trustee may also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer,
any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not
limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been
called but have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or
interest in monies due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the
records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of
record for each such Holder).

         Section 3.04 EXISTENCE. The Issuer will keep in full effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the
State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or
becomes, organized under the laws of any other state or of the United States of
America, in which case the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights
and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and
preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the

         Section 3.29 REPLACEMENT CREDIT ENHANCEMENT INSTRUMENT. In the event of
a Credit Enhancer Default or if the claims paying ability rating of the Credit
Enhancer is downgraded and such downgrade results in a downgrading of the then
current rating of the Securities (in each case, a "Replacement Event"), the
Issuer, at its expense, in accordance with and upon satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in the Credit Enhancement Instrument, including, without
limitation, payment in full of all amounts owed to the Credit Enhancer, may, but
shall not be required to, substitute a new surety bond or surety bonds for the
existing Credit Enhancement Instrument or may arrange for any other form of
credit enhancement; provided, however, that in each case the Notes shall be
rated no lower than the rating assigned by each Rating Agency to the Notes
immediately prior to such Replacement Event and the timing and mechanism for
drawing on such new credit enhancement shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Indenture Trustee and provided further that the premiums under the proposed
credit enhancement shall not exceed such premiums under the existing Credit
Enhancement Instrument. It shall be a condition to substitution of any new
credit enhancement that there be delivered to the Indenture Trustee (i) an
Opinion of Counsel, acceptable in form to the Indenture Trustee, from counsel to
the provider of such new credit enhancement with respect to the enforceability
thereof and such other matters as the Indenture Trustee may require and (ii) an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution would not (a) adversely
affect in any material respect the tax status of the Notes or (b) cause the
Issuer to be subject to a tax at the entity level. Upon receipt of the items
referred to above and payment of all amounts owing to the Credit Enhancer and
the taking of physical possession of the new credit enhancement, the Indenture
Trustee shall, within five Business Days following receipt of such items and
such taking of physical possession, deliver the replaced Credit Enhancement
Instrument to the Credit Enhancer. In the event of any such replacement the
Issuer shall give written notice thereof to the Rating Agencies.

                                   ARTICLE IV

               The Notes; Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

         Section 4.01 THE NOTES. The Notes shall be registered in the name of a
nominee designated by the Depository. Beneficial Owners will hold interests in
the Notes through the book-entry facilities of the Depository in minimum initial
Principal Balances of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

         The Indenture Trustee may for all purposes (including the making of
payments due on the Notes) deal with the Depository as the authorized
representative of the Beneficial Owners with respect to the Notes for the
purposes of exercising the rights of Holders of Notes hereunder. Except as
provided in the next succeeding paragraph of this Section 4.01, the rights of
Beneficial Owners with respect to the Notes shall be limited to those
established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the
Depository and Depository Participants. Except as provided in Section 4.08,
Beneficial Owners shall not be entitled to definitive certificates for the Notes
as to which they are the Beneficial Owners. Requests and directions from, and
votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Notes shall not be deemed inconsistent
if they are made with respect to different Beneficial Owners. The Indenture
Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations
of consents from or voting by Noteholders and give notice to the Depository of
such record date. Without the consent of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee,
no Note may be transferred by the Depository except to a successor Depository
that agrees to hold such Note for the account of the Beneficial Owners.

         In the event the Depository Trust Company resigns or is removed as
Depository, the Indenture Trustee with the approval of the Issuer may appoint a
successor Depository. If no successor Depository has been appointed within 30
days of the effective date of the Depository's resignation or removal, each
Beneficial Owner shall be entitled to certificates representing the Notes it
beneficially owns in the manner prescribed in Section 4.08.

         The Notes shall, on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer
by the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner
Trustee, authenticated by the Note Registrar and delivered by the Indenture
Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer.

         Section 4.02 REGISTRATION OF AND LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE
OF NOTES; APPOINTMENT OF CERTIFICATE REGISTRAR. The Issuer shall cause to be
kept at its Corporate Trust Office a Note Register in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for
the registration of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein
provided.

         Subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth below, upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the Corporate Trust
Office, the Indenture Trustee shall execute and the Note Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one


                                       18

<PAGE>



or more new Notes in authorized initial Security Balances evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interests.

         Subject to the foregoing, at the option of the Noteholders, Notes may
be exchanged for other Notes of like tenor or, in each case in authorized
initial Principal Balances evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interests
upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Note Registrar. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the
Indenture Trustee shall execute and the Note Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive. Each Note presented or sur rendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall (if so required by the Note Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory
to the Note Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing with such signature guaranteed by a commercial bank or
trust company located or having a correspondent located in the city of New York.
Notes delivered upon any such transfer or exchange will evidence the same
obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the
Notes surrendered.

         No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes, but the Note Registrar shall require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes.

         All Notes surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall
be cancelled by the Note Registrar and delivered to the Indenture Trustee for
subsequent destruction without liability on the part of either.

         The Issuer hereby appoints __________________________________ as
Certificate Registrar to keep at its Corporate Trust Office a Certificate
Register pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Trust Agreement in which, subject to
such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall
provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges
thereof pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Trust Agreement.
__________________________________ hereby accepts such appointment.

         Section 4.03 MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN NOTES. If (i) any
mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or
indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or
the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, the
Issuer shall execute, and upon its request the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class; provided,
however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated
Note, shall have become or within seven days shall be due and payable, instead
of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen
Note when so due or payable without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of
such replacement


                                       19

<PAGE>



Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to
the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in lieu of
which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note,
the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such
replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or
any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such
replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a bona
fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by
the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.

         Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 4.03, the
Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the Indenture Trustee) connected therewith.

         Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 4.03 in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

         The provisions of this Section 4.03 are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

         Section 4.04 PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any
agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name
any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such
Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any,
on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be
overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee nor any agent of the
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         Section 4.05 CANCELLATION. All Notes surrendered for payment,
registration of transfer, exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee
and shall be promptly cancelled by the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer may at any
time deliver to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the
Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for
any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 4.05, except as expressly
permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes may be held or disposed of by
the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal
policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer
Request that they be destroyed or returned to it; provided however, that such
Issuer Request is timely and the Notes have not been


                                       20

<PAGE>



previously disposed of by the Indenture Trustee.

         Section 4.06 BOOK-ENTRY NOTES. The Notes, upon original issuance, will
be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to
be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, the initial Depository, by, or on
behalf of, the Issuer. Such Notes shall initially be registered on the Note
Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Depository, and
no Beneficial Owner will receive a Definitive Note representing such Beneficial
Owner's interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 4.08. Unless and
until definitive, fully registered Notes (the "Definitive Notes") have been
issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 4.08:

                  (i) the provisions of this Section 4.06 shall be in full force
         and effect;

                  (ii) the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall be
         entitled to deal with the Depository for all purposes of this Indenture
         (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and
         the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole holder
         of the Notes, and shall have no obligation to the Owners of Notes;

                  (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 4.06
         conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of
         this Section 4.06 shall control;

                  (iv) the rights of Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only
         through the Depository and shall be limited to those established by law
         and agreements between such Owners of Notes and the Depository and/or
         the Depository Participants. Unless and until Definitive Notes are
         issued pursuant to Section 4.08, the initial Depository will make
         book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants and receive and
         transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to such
         Depository Participants; and

                  (v) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be
         taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes
         evidencing a specified percentage of the Security Balances of the
         Notes, the Depository shall be deemed to represent such percentage only
         to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from
         Beneficial Owners and/or Depository Participants owning or
         representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial
         interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the
         Indenture Trustee.

         Section 4.07 NOTICES TO DEPOSITORY. Whenever a notice or other
communication to the Note Holders is required under this Indenture, unless and
until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to
Section 4.08, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and
communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes to the
Depository, and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners.

         Section 4.08 DEFINITIVE NOTES. If (i) the Administrator advises the
Indenture Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to
properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Notes and the
Administrator is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Administrator
at its option advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that it elects to
terminate the book-entry system through the Depository or (iii) after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Owners of Notes representing beneficial
interests aggregating at least a majority of the Security Balances of the Notes
advise the Depository in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system
through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Beneficial
Owners, then the Depository shall notify all Beneficial Owners and the Indenture
Trustee of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of
Definitive Notes to Beneficial Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the
Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by
the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall
execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in
accordance with the instructions of the Depository. None of the Issuer, the Note
Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for 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 Notes, the
Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes as
Noteholders.

         Section 4.09 TAX TREATMENT. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture,
and the Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and
local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will qualify
as indebtedness of the Issuer. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and
each Noteholder, by its acceptance of its Note (and each Beneficial Owner by its
acceptance of an interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the
Notes for federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax
purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

         Section 4.10 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE. This Indenture
shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Notes except as to (i)
rights of registration of transfer and exchange, (ii) substitution of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, (iii) rights of Noteholders to receive payments
of principal thereof and interest thereon, (iv) Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.06, 3.09,
3.16, 3.18 and 3.19, (v) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Indenture
Trustee hereunder (including the rights of the Indenture Trustee under Section
6.07 and the obligations of the Indenture Trustee under Section 4.11) and (vi)
the rights of Noteholders as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property
so deposited with the Indenture Trustee payable to all or any of them, and the
Indenture Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
with respect to the Notes, when

                  (A) either

                           (1) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered

                           payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust
                           or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and
                           thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from
                           such trust, as

                                    pursuant to Section 5.02.

and the Issuer, in the case of a. or b. above, has irrevocably deposited or
caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Indenture Trustee cash or direct
obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United States of America (which
will mature prior to the date such amounts are payable), in trust for such

                  Section 10.01 each stating that all conditions precedent
                  herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge
                  of this Indenture have been complied with and, if the Opinion
                  of Counsel relates to a deposit made in connection with
                  Section 4.10(A)(2)b. above, such opinion shall further be to
                  the effect that such deposit will not have any material
                  adverse tax consequences to the Issuer, any Noteholders or any
                  Certificateholders.

         Section 4.11 APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY. All monies deposited with the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof shall be held in trust and
applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent or
Certificate Paying Agent, as the Indenture Trustee may determine, to the Holders
of Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal and
interest; but such monies need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required herein or required by law.

         Section 4.12 SUBROGATION AND COOPERATION. (a) The Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee acknowledge that (i) to the extent the Credit Enhancer makes
payments under the Credit Enhancement Instrument on account of principal of or
interest on the Notes, the Credit Enhancer will be fully subrogated to the
rights of such Holders to receive such principal and interest from the Issuer,
and (ii) the Credit Enhancer shall be paid such principal and interest but only
from the sources and in the manner provided herein and in the Insurance
Agreement for the payment of such principal and interest.

         The Indenture Trustee shall cooperate in all respects with any
reasonable request by the Credit Enhancer for action to preserve or enforce the
Credit Enhancer's rights or interest under this Indenture or the Insurance
Agreement without limiting the rights of the Noteholders as otherwise set forth
in the Indenture, including, without limitation, upon the occurrence and
continuance of a default under the Insurance Agreement, a request to take any
one or more of the following actions:

                  (i) institute Proceedings for the collection of all amounts
         then payable on the Notes, or under this Indenture in respect to the
         Notes and all amounts payable under the Insurance Agreement enforce any
         judgment obtained and collect from the Issuer monies adjudged due;

                  (ii) sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or
         interest therein, at one or more public or private Sales called and
         conducted in any manner permitted by law;

                  (iii) file or record all Assignments that have not previously
         been recorded;

                  (iv) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete
         or partial foreclosure of this Indenture; and

                  (v) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
         Commercial Code and take any other appropriate action to protect and
         enforce the rights and remedies of the Credit Enhancer hereunder.

         Section 4.13 REPAYMENT OF MONIES HELD BY PAYING AGENT. In connection
with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes,
all monies then held by any Administrator other than the Indenture Trustee under
the provisions of this Indenture with respect to such Notes shall, upon demand
of the Issuer, be paid to the Indenture Trustee to be held and applied according
to Section 3.05 and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all
further liability with respect to such monies.

         Section 4.14 TEMPORARY NOTES. Pending the preparation of any Definitive
Notes, the Issuer may execute and upon its written direction, the Indenture
Trustee may authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary Notes that
are printed, lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced, in
any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of
which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Notes may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

         If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes
to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of the
Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes
upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Indenture
Trustee, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any
one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee
shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange therefor,
Definitive Notes of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate
principal amount. Until so exchanged, such temporary Notes shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

                              Default and Remedies

         Section 5.01 EVENTS OF DEFAULT. "Event of Default," wherever used
herein, shall have the meaning provided in Article I; provided, however, that no
Event of Default will occur under clause (i) or clause (ii) of the definition of
"Event of Default" if the Issuer fails to make payments of principal of and
interest on the Notes so long as the Credit Enhancer makes payments sufficient
therefore under the Credit Enhancement Instrument.

         The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Credit
Enhancer, within five days after learning of the occurrence of an Event of
Default, written notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of any event
which with the giving of notice and the lapse of time would become an Event of
Default under clause (iii) of the definition of "Event of Default", its status
and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

         Section 5.02 ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT. If an
Event of Default should occur and be continuing or if the Master Servicer shall
purchase all of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 8.08 of the Servicing
Agreement, then and in every such case the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of
Notes representing not less than a majority of the Security Balances of all
Notes may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in
writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by Noteholders),
and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of such Class of
Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of
acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable. Unless the prior written
consent of the Credit Enhancer shall have been obtained by the Indenture
Trustee, the Payment Date upon which such accelerated payment is due and payable
shall not be a Payment Date under the Credit Enhancement Instrument and the
Indenture Trustee shall not be authorized under Section 3.28 to make a draw
therefor.

         At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity with
respect to an Event of Default has been made and before a judgment or decree for
payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of Notes representing a
majority of the Security Balances of all Notes, by written notice to the Issuer
and the Indenture Trustee, may waive the related Event of Default and rescind
and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

                  (i) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture
                  Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

                  (A) all payments of principal of and interest on the Notes and
                  all other amounts that would then be due hereunder or upon the
                  Notes if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration
                  had not occurred; and



                                       26

<PAGE>



                  (B) all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee
         hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
         advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and

                  (ii) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the
         principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration,
         have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12.

         No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any
right consequent thereto.

         Section 5.03 COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY
INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the
payment of any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and
such default continues for a period of five days, or (ii) default is made in the
payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when
the same becomes due and payable, the Issue shall, upon demand of the Indenture
Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of Notes and of the Credit
Enhancer, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and
interest, with interest upon the overdue principal, and in addition thereto such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.
         (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon
such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, subject to the provisions of Section 10.17 hereof may institute a
Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute
such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against
the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes and collect in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor the Notes, wherever
situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

         (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee subject to the provisions of Section 10.17 hereof may, as more
particularly provided in Section 5.04, in its discretion, proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders and the Credit Enhancer, by
such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most effective
to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of
any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any
power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or
equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

         (d) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in
the Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any
other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law,
or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization,
liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or
taken possession of the


                                       27

<PAGE>



Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in case of any other
comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the
Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the
Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then
be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand
pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

                  (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount
         of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and
         to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
         in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any
         claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each
         predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys
         and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities
         incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each
         predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad
         faith) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

                  (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to
         vote on behalf of the Holders of Notes in any election of a trustee, a
         standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such
         Proceedings;

                  (iii) to collect and receive any monies or other property
         payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts
         received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the
         Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and

                  (iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
         documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
         of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes allowed in any
         judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its
         property;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in
any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make
payments to the Indenture Trustee, and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee
shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to
the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable
compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and
their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and
liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each
predecessor Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith.

         (e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture
Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to
authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Note
holder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of
a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.


                                       28

<PAGE>




         (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture,
or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other
Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by
the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express
trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses,
disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor
Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

         (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any
Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to
which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be
held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to
make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

         Section 5.04 REMEDIES; PRIORITIES. (a) If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee subject to the provisions
of Section 10.17 hereof may do one or more of the following (subject to Section
5.05):

                  (i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an
         express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the
         Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by
         declaration or otherwise, and all amounts payable under the Insurance
         Agreement, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer
         and any other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

                  (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete
         or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust
         Estate;

                  (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC
         and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights
         and remedies of the Indenture Trustee, the Holders of the Notes and the
         Credit Enhancer; and

                  (iv) sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or
         interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and
         conducted in any manner permitted by law;

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise
liquidate the Trust Estate following an Event of Default, unless (A) the
Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Holders of 100% of the aggregate
Principal Balances of the Notes and the Credit Enhancer, which consent will not
be unreasonably withheld, (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation
distributable to Holders are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then
due and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest and to reimburse the
Credit Enhancer for any amounts drawn under the Credit Enhancement Instrument
and any other amounts due the Credit Enhancer under the Insurance Agreement or
(C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Mortgage Loans will not continue
to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the
Notes as they would have


                                       29

<PAGE>



become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture
Trustee obtains the consent of the Credit Enhancer, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld, and of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate
Principal Balances of the Notes. In determining such sufficiency or
insufficiency with respect to clause (B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but
need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking
or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed
action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as an Event of Servicer Termination has
not occurred, any Sale of the Trust Estate shall be made subject to the
continued Servicing of the Mortgage Loans by the Master Servicer as provided in
the Servicing Agreement.

         (b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to
this Article V, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

         FIRST:  to the Indenture Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.07;

         SECOND: to each Class of Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the
related Class of Notes for interest and to each Noteholder of such Class in each
case, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the
amounts due and payable on such Class of Notes for interest from amounts
available in the Trust Estate for such Noteholders;

         THIRD: to Holders of each Class of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on
the related Class of Notes for principal, from amounts available in the Trust
Estate for such Noteholders, and to each Noteholder of such Class in each case
ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts
due and payable on such Class of Notes for principal, until the Security
Balances of each Class of Notes is reduced to zero;

         FOURTH: to the Issuer for amounts required to be distributed to the
Certificateholders in respect of interest and principal pursuant to the Trust
Agreement;

         FIFTH: to the payment of all amounts due and owing to the Credit
Enhancer under the Insurance Agreement;

         SIXTH: to the Issuer for amounts due under Article VIII of the Trust
Agreement; and

         SEVENTH: to the payment of the remainder, if any to the Issuer or any
other person legally entitled thereto. The Indenture Trustee may fix a record
date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section
5.04. At least 15 days before such record date, the Indenture Trustee shall mail
to each Noteholder a notice that states the record date, the payment date and
the amount to be paid.

         Section 5.05 OPTIONAL PRESERVATION OF THE TRUST ESTATE. If the Notes
have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.02 following an Event
of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to take and maintain
possession of the Trust Estate. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the
Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of
principal of and interest on the Notes and other obligations of the Issuer
including payment to the Credit Enhancer, and the Indenture Trustee shall take
such desire into account when determining whether or not to take and maintain
possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to take and maintain
possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain
and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm
of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to
the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

         Section 5.06 LIMITATION OF SUITS. No Holder of any Note shall have any
right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this
Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless and subject to the provisions of Section 10.17 hereof:

                  (i) such Holder has previously given written notice to the
         Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

                  (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% of the Security Balances
         of the Notes have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to
         institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its
         own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

                  (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Indenture
         Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and
         liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

                  (iv) the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of
         such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute
         such Proceedings; and

                  (v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has
         been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the
         Holders of a majority of the Security Balances of the Notes.

         It is understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any
other Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference
over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in
the manner herein provided.

         In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or
inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes,
each representing less than a majority of


                                       31

<PAGE>



the Security Balances of the Notes, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion
may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Indenture.

         Section 5.07 UNCONDITIONAL RIGHTS OF NOTEHOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL
AND INTEREST. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder
of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on or
after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this
Indenture and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and
such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

         Section 5.08 RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If the Indenture
Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture
Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in
such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former
positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been
instituted.

         Section 5.09 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

         Section 5.10 DELAY OR OMISSION NOT A WAIVER. No delay or omission of
the Indenture Trustee or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or
constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.
Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture
Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often
as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as
the case may be.

         Section 5.11 CONTROL BY NOTEHOLDERS. The Holders of a majority of the
Security Balances of Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and
place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture
Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Indenture Trustee; provided that:

                  (i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of
         law or with this Indenture;

                  (ii) subject to the express terms of Section 5.04, any
         direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust
         Estate shall be by Holders of Notes representing not less


                                       32

<PAGE>



         than 100% of the Security Balances of Notes;

                  (iii) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 have been
         satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Trust Estate
         pursuant to such Section, then any direction to the Indenture Trustee
         by Holders of Notes representing less than 100% of the Security
         Balances of Notes to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be of no
         force and effect; and

                  (iv) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed
         proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such
         direction.

         Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section,
subject to Section 6.01, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it
determines might involve it in liability or might materially adversely affect
the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

         Section 5.12 WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. Prior to the declaration of the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02, the
Holders of Notes of not less than a majority of the Security Balances of the
Notes may waive any past Event of Default and its consequences except an Event
of Default (a) with respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the
Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note or (c) the
waiver of which would materially and adversely affect the interests of the
Credit Enhancer or modify its obligation under the Credit Enhancement
Instrument. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and
rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

         Upon any such waiver, any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be
deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this
Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

         Section 5.13 UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS. All parties to this Indenture
agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be
deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit
for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit
against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as
Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the
provisions of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by
the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of
Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Security
Balances of the Notes or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the
enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after
the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture.

         Section 5.14 WAIVER OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS. The Issuer covenants (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon,
or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of,
any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in
force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and
the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives
all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not
hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power
as though no such law had been enacted.

         Section 5.15 SALE OF TRUST ESTATE. (a) The power to effect any sale or
other disposition (a "Sale") of any portion of the Trust Estate pursuant to
Section 5.04 is expressly subject to the provisions of Section 5.05 and this
Section 5.15. The power to effect any such Sale shall not be exhausted by any
one or more Sales as to any portion of the Trust Estate remaining unsold, but
shall continue unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate shall have been sold or
all amounts payable on the Notes and under this Indenture and under the
Insurance Agreement shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee may from time to
time postpone any public Sale by public announcement made at the time and place
of such Sale. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any
amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee shall not in any private Sale sell the Trust
Estate, or any portion thereof, unless

                           (1) the Holders of all Notes and the Credit Enhancer
                           consent to or direct the Indenture Trustee to make,
                           such Sale, or

                           (2) the proceeds of such Sale would be not less than
                           the entire amount which would be payable to the
                           Noteholders under the Notes and the Credit Enhancer
                           in respect of amounts drawn under the Credit
                           Enhancement Instrument and any other amounts due the
                           Credit Enhancer under the Insurance Agreement, in
                           full payment thereof in accordance with Section 5.02,
                           on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such
                           Sale, or

                           (3) The Indenture Trustee determines, in its sole
                           discretion, that the conditions for retention of the
                           Trust Estate set forth in Section 5.05 cannot be
                           satisfied (in making any such determination, the
                           Indenture Trustee may rely upon an opinion of an
                           Independent investment banking firm obtained and
                           delivered as provided in Section 5.05), and the
                           Credit Enhancer consents to such Sale, which consent
                           will not be unreasonably withheld and the Holders
                           representing at least 66-2/3% of the Security
                           Balances of the Notes consent to such Sale.

         The purchase by the Indenture Trustee of all or any portion of the
Trust Estate at a private Sale shall not be deemed a Sale or other disposition
thereof for purposes of this Section 5.15(b).

         (c) Unless the Holders and the Credit Enhancer have otherwise consented
or directed the Indenture Trustee, at any public Sale of all or any portion of
the Trust Estate at which a minimum bid equal to or greater than the amount
described in paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of this Section 5.15 has not been
established by the Indenture Trustee and no Person bids an amount equal to or
greater than such amount, the Indenture Trustee shall bid an amount at least
$1.00 more than the highest other bid.

         (d) In connection with a Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate

                           (1) any Holder or Holders of Notes may bid for and
                           with the consent of the Credit Enhancer purchase the
                           property offered for sale, and upon compliance with
                           the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and
                           dispose of such property, without further
                           accountability, and may, in paying the purchase money
                           therefor, deliver any Notes or claims for interest
                           thereon in lieu of cash up to the amount which shall,
                           upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale,
                           be payable thereon, and such Notes, in case the
                           amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the
                           amount due thereon, shall be returned to the Holders
                           thereof after being appropriately stamped to show
                           such partial payment;

                           (2) the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the
                           property offered for Sale in connection with any Sale
                           thereof, and, subject to any requirements of, and to
                           the extent permitted by, applicable law in connection
                           therewith, may purchase all or any portion of the
                           Trust Estate in a private sale, and, in lieu of
                           paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the
                           purchase price by crediting the gross Sale price
                           against the sum of (A) the amount which would be
                           distributable to the Holders of the Notes and Holders
                           of Certificates and amounts owing to the Credit
                           Enhancer as a result of such Sale in accordance with
                           Section 5.04(b) on the Payment Date next succeeding
                           the date of such Sale and (B) the expenses of the
                           Sale and of any Proceedings in connection therewith
                           which are reimbursable to it, without being required
                           to produce the Notes in order to complete any such
                           Sale or in order for the net Sale price to be
                           credited against such Notes, and any property so
                           acquired by the Indenture Trustee shall be held and
                           dealt with by it in accordance with the provisions of
                           this Indenture;

                           (3) the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver
                           an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring
                           its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in
                           connection with a Sale thereof;



                                       35

<PAGE>



                           (4) the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably
                           appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the
                           Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in any
                           portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale
                           thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect
                           such Sale; and

                           (5) no purchaser or transferee at such a Sale shall
                           be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee's
                           authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any
                           conditions precedent or see to the application of any
                           monies.

         Section 5.16 ACTION ON NOTES. The Indenture Trustee's right to seek and
recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by
the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect
to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies
of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of
any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any
execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any
of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture
Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.04(b).

         Section 5.17 PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS. (a)
Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so and at the
Administrator's expense, the Issuer in its capacity as holder of the Mortgage
Loans, shall take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to
cause the Issuer to compel or secure the performance and observance by the
Seller and the Master Servicer, as applicable, of each of their obligations to
the Issuer under or in connection with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and
the Servicing Agreement, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers
and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement to the extent and
in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage
Loans, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the
Seller or the Master Servicer thereunder and the institution of legal or
administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the
Seller or the Master Servicer of each of their obligations under the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement.

         (b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Loans, subject to the rights of
the Credit Enhancer under the Servicing Agreement may, and at the direction
(which direction shall be in writing or by telephone (confirmed in writing
promptly thereafter)) of the Holders of 66-2/3% of the Security Balances of the
Notes shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the
Issuer against the Seller or the Master Servicer under or in connection with the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, including the
right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance
by the Seller or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, of each of their
obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice,
direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as the case may be, and any right of the
Issuer to take such action shall not be suspended.

                              The Indenture Trustee

         Section 6.01 DUTIES OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) If an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and
skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

         (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

                  (i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties
         and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture
         and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
         Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and

                  (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture
         Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and
         the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or
         opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the
         requirements of this Indenture; however, the Indenture Trustee shall
         examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they
         conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

         (c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its
own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

                  (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b)
         of this Section 6.01;

                  (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error
         of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is
         proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the
         pertinent facts; and

                  (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect
         to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance
         with a direction received by it (A) pursuant to Section 5.11 or (B)
         from the Credit Enhancer, which it is entitled to give under any of the
         Basic Documents.

         (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the Indenture Trustee may agree in writing with the
Issuer.

         (e) Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this
Indenture or the Trust Agreement.

         (f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee
to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder


                                       37

<PAGE>



or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable
grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against
such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

         (g) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the
TIA.

         Section 6.02 RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) The Indenture Trustee may
rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper person. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate any
fact or matter stated in the document.

         (b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may
require an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee
shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in
reliance on an Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

         (c) The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee, and the Indenture Trustee shall
not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the
supervision of, any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed with
due care by it hereunder.

         (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes
or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its
rights or powers; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee's conduct does
not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

         (e) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or
opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and
the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability
in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good
faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

         Section 6.03 INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. The Indenture
Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same
rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Administrator, Note
Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.
However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12.

         Section 6.04 INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER. The Indenture Trustee
shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the
Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for
any statement of the Issuer in the Indenture or in any document issued in
connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture
Trustee's certificate of authentication.



                                       38

<PAGE>



         Section 6.05 NOTICE OF EVENT OF DEFAULT. If an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Credit Enhancer.
The Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of the Event of Default within
90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment of
principal of or interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold the
notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

         Section 6.06 REPORTS BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS. The Indenture
Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder such information as may be required to
enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns. In
addition, upon the Issuer's written request, the Indenture Trustee shall
promptly furnish information reasonably requested by the Issuer that is
reasonably available to the Indenture Trustee to enable the Issuer to perform
its federal and state income tax reporting obligations.

         Section 6.07 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY. The Issuer shall or shall
cause the Administrator to pay to the Indenture Trustee on each Payment Date
reasonable compensation for its services. The Indenture Trustee's compensation
shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express
trust. The Issuer shall or shall cause the Administrator to reimburse the
Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by
it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its
services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel,
accountants and experts. The Issuer shall or shall cause the Administrator to
indemnify the Indenture Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration
of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Indenture Trustee
shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it
may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and
the Administrator shall not relieve the Issuer or the Administrator of its
obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall or shall cause the Administrator to
defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and
the Issuer shall or shall cause the Administrator to pay the fees and expenses
of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor the Administrator need reimburse any
expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the
Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee's own willful misconduct,
negligence or bad faith.

         The Issuer's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section 6.07 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture. When the
Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default
specified in Section 5.01(iv) or (v) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses
are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the
United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law.

         Section 6.08 REPLACEMENT OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. No resignation or
removal of the Indenture Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture
Trustee shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the
successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08. The Indenture Trustee
may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer and the Credit Enhancer. The
Holders of a majority of Security Balances of the Notes may remove the Indenture
Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and the Credit Enhancer and may
appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture
Trustee if:

                  (i) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

                  (ii) the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or
         insolvent;

                  (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the
         Indenture Trustee or its property; or

                  (iv) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of
         acting.

         If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists
in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such
event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer
shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.

         Section 6.09 SUCCESSOR INDENTURE TRUSTEE BY MERGER. If the Indenture
Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation
or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation
without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided, that
such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and
eligible under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall provide the Rating
Agencies prior written notice of any such transaction.

         In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion
or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by
this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered,
any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such
Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates
shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture
provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

         Section 6.10 APPOINTMENT OF CO-INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE INDENTURE
TRUSTEE. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture
Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to
appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate
trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in
such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders,
such title to the Trust Estate, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other
provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts
as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or
separate trustee here under shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility
as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders of the
appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under
Section 6.08 hereof.

         (b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:

                  (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
         imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon
         and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate
         trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate
         trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the
         Indenture 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 Indenture 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 Estate or
         any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
         performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at
         the direction of the Indenture Trustee;



                                       41

<PAGE>



                  (ii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason
         of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

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

         (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture 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 VI. 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
Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the
provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with
the Indenture Trustee.

         (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the
Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

shall have a long-term debt rating of [Baa3] or better by [Moody's]. The
Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA ss. 310(b), including the optional
provision permitted by the second sentence of TIA ss. 310(b)(9); provided,
however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA ss. 310(b)(1)
any indenture or indentures under which other securities of the Issuer are
outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA ss.
310(b)(1) are met.

         Section 6.12 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST ISSUER. The
Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA ss. 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA ss. 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to TIA ss. 311(a) to the extent indicated.

         Section 6.13 REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTY. The Indenture Trustee hereby
represents that:

                  (i) The Indenture Trustee is duly organized and validly

         the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Indenture Trustee or any
         agreement or other instrument to which the Indenture Trustee is a party
         or by which it is bound.

                  (iv) To the Indenture Trustee's best knowledge, there are no
         proceedings or investigations pending or threatened before any court,

         to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by
         this Indenture or (C) seeking any determination or ruling that might
         materially and adversely affect the performance by the Indenture

Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, enter
into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding
any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the
Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such
supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Note
affected thereby:

                  (i) change the date of payment of any installment of principal
         of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof or
         the interest rate thereon, change the provisions of this Indenture
         relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the
         sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the
         Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in
         which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right
         to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this
         Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as
         provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the
         Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof;

                  (ii) reduce the percentage of the Security Balances of the
         Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such
         supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is
         required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this
         Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided
         for in this Indenture;

                  (iii) modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the
         definition of the term "Outstanding" or modify or alter the exception
         in the definition of the term "Holder";

                  (iv) reduce the percentage of the Security Balances of the
         Notes required to direct the Indenture Trustee to direct the Issuer to
         sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04;

                  (v) modify any provision of this Section 9.02 except to
         increase any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain
         additional provisions of this Indenture or the Basic Documents cannot
         be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Note
         affected thereby;

                  (vi) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such
         manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of
         interest or principal due on any Note on any Payment Date (including
         the calculation of any of the individual components of such
         calculation); or

                  (vii) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a
         parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the
         Trust Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein,
         terminate the lien of this Indenture on any property at any time
         subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security
         provided by the lien of this Indenture; and provided, further, that
         such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the
         Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax.

         The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not
any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such
determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether
theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture
Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

         It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section
9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but
it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

         Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee
shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental
indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such
supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect
the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

         Section 9.03 EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. In executing, or
permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created
by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and
subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall
not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the
Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise.

         Section 9.04 EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. Upon the execution of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture
shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith
with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under
this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes
shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all
respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions
of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the
terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

         Section 9.05 CONFORMITY WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. Every amendment of
this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this
Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then
in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act.

         Section 9.06 REFERENCE IN NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. Notes
authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall,
bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion
of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such supplemental indenture may
be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the
Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

                           signatory to express an informed opinion as to
                           whether or not such covenant or condition has been

Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in Section 10.01(a) or
elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's

<PAGE>



                  (ii) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (i)
         above, the Issuer shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an
         Independent Certificate as to the same matters, if the fair value to
         the Issuer of the securities to be so deposited and of all other such
         securities made the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the
         commencement of the then-current fiscal year of the Issuer, as set
         forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and
         this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Security Balances of the Notes,
         but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any
         securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Issuer as set
         forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less than $25,000 or less
         than one percent of the Security Balances of the Notes.

                  (iii) Whenever any property or securities are to be released
         from the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value
         (within 90 days of such release) of the property or securities proposed
         to be released and stating that in the opinion of such person the
         proposed release will not impair the security under this Indenture in
         contravention of the provisions hereof.

                  (iv) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause

         as contemplated by clause (v) below or securities released from the
         lien of this Indenture since the commencement of the then-current
         calendar year, as set forth in the certificates required by clause
         (iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or more of the Security
         Balances of the Notes, but such certificate need not be furnished in
         the case of any release of property or securities if the fair value
         thereof as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less than
         $25,000 or less than one percent of the then Security Balances of the
         Notes.

                  (v) Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture, the
         Issuer may, without compliance with the requirements of the other
         provisions of this Section 10.01, (A) collect, sell or otherwise
         dispose of the Mortgage Loans as and to the extent permitted or
         required by the Basic Documents or (B) make cash payments out of the
         Payment Account as and to the extent permitted or required by the Basic
         Documents [, so long as the Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture
         Trustee every six months, commencing _____________, an Officer's
         Certificate of the Issuer stating that all the dispositions of
         Collateral described in clauses (A) or (B) above that occurred during
         the preceding six calendar months were in the ordinary course of the
         Issuer's business and that the proceeds thereof were applied in

         Section 10.02 FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE. In any
case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an
opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be
certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they
be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify
or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such
Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion
as to such matters in one or several documents.

         Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may
be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion
of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the
exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or
opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or
Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon
a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of
the Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator, stating that the information with
respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Seller, the Issuer
or the Administrator, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to such matters are erroneous.

         Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

         Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer
shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application,
or as evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended
that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or
at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and
accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided
in Article VI.

         Section 10.03 ACTS OF NOTEHOLDERS. (a) Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by
this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and
evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by
such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as
herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such
instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it
is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred
to as the "Act" of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof
of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent
shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section
6.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in
the manner provided in this Section 10.03.


                                       55

<PAGE>



         (b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee
deems sufficient.

         (c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Registrar.

         (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder of every
Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the
Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of
such action is made upon such Note.

         Section 10.04 NOTICES, ETC., TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE, ISSUER, CREDIT
ENHANCER AND RATING AGENCIES. Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or Act of Note holders or other documents provided or
permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders is to be
made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

                  (i) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer
         shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given,
         furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at the
         Corporate Trust Office. The Indenture Trustee shall promptly transmit
         any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuer, or

                  (ii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder
         shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and
         mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to:
         People's Choice Home Loan Securities Corp. Trust Series 200_ - ______,
         in care of [Name of Owner Trustee] _________________, __________,
         ______________, Attention of _________________________________________
         with a copy to the Administrator at ________________ Attention:
         __________ __________________________, or at any other address
         previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer
         or the Administrator. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice
         received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee, or

                  (iii) the Credit Enhancer by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee
         or by any Noteholders shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
         to in writing and mailed, first-class postage pre-paid, or personally
         delivered or telecopied to: [Name of Credit Enhancer],
         ________________, ________, _______________, Attention:
         _________________, ___________________________, Telephone
         ______________. Telecopier ______________. The Credit Enhancer shall
         promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Issuer, the
         Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders to the Issuer or Indenture
         Trustee, as the case may be.

         Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee or


                                       56

<PAGE>



the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered or mailed by
certified mail, return receipt requested, to (i) in the case of [Moody's], at
the following address: [Moody's Investors Service, Inc., ABS Monitoring
Department, 99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007] and (ii) in the case of
[Standard & Poor's], at the following address: [Standard & Poor's Ratings Group,
26 Broadway (15th Floor), New York, New York 10004, Attention of Asset Backed
Surveillance Department]; or as to each of the foregoing, at such other address
as shall be designated by written notice to the other parties.

         Section 10.05 NOTICES TO NOTEHOLDERS; WAIVER. Where this Indenture
provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such
event, at such Person's as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the
latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving
of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed
to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein
provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given regardless of
whether such notice is in fact actually received.

         Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may
be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such
notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture
Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

         In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a
result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical
to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be
given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving
such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to
be a sufficient giving of such notice.

         Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies,
failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations
created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute an Event of
Default.

         Section 10.06 ALTERNATE PAYMENT AND NOTICE PROVISIONS. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer
may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note providing for a method of
payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any Administrator to such Holder,
that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such
payments or notices. The Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of
each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made
and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements.

         Section 10.07 CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. If any provision
hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is
required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

         The provisions of TIA ss.ss. 310 through 317 that impose duties on any
Person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless
expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,
whether or not physically contained herein.

         Section 10.08 EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Article and Section headings
herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and
assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

         Section 10.10 SEPARABILITY. In case any provision in this Indenture or
in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality,
and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.

         Section 10.11 BENEFITS OF INDENTURE. The Credit Enhancer and its
successors and assigns shall be a third-party beneficiary to the provisions of
this Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors
hereunder, and the Noteholders, and any other party secured hereunder, and any
other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the Trust Estate, any
benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

         Section 10.12 LEGAL HOLIDAYS. In any case where the date on which any
payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and
effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall
accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

         Section 10.13 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS
CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

         Section 10.14 COUNTERPARTS. This Indenture may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.

         Section 10.15 RECORDING OF INDENTURE. If this Indenture is subject to
recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be

obligations in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner,
owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable
law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or

reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to
the extent that the

         People's Choice Home Loan Securities Corp. Trust Series 200_-_ (the
"Issuer"), a Delaware statutory trust, for value received, hereby promises to
pay to Cede & Co. or registered assigns, the principal sum of
($_________________) in monthly installments on the twenty-fifth day of each
month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day
(each a "Payment Date"), commencing in ______ 200_ and ending on or before the
Payment Date occurring in ________ 20__ (the "Final Scheduled Payment Date") and
to pay interest on the Note Principal Balance of this Note (this "Note")
outstanding from time to time as provided below.

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer's
Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 200_-_ (the "Notes"), issued under an Indenture
dated as of ____________, 200_ (the "Indenture"), between the Issuer and [NAME
OF TRUSTEE], as indenture trustee (the "Indenture Trustee", which term includes
any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, and the
Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to be authenticated
and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

         [NAME OF NOTE INSURER] (the "Note Insurer"), in consideration of the
payment of the premium and subject to the terms of the note insurance policy
(the "Note Insurance Policy") issued thereby, has unconditionally and
irrevocably guaranteed the payment of the Insured Amount with respect to the
Notes, with respect to each Payment Date. Such Note Insurance Policy will not
cover any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, Relief Act Shortfalls or Basis Risk
Shortfall Carry- Forward Amount.

         Payments of principal and interest on this Note will be made on each
Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The
"Note Principal Balance" of a Note as of any date of determination is equal to
the initial Note Principal Balance thereof, reduced by the aggregate of all
amounts previously paid with respect to such Note on account of principal and
the


                                      A-1-2

<PAGE>



aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses allocated to such Note on all
prior Payment Dates.

         The principal of, and interest on, this Note is due and payable as
described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall
be equal to this Notes's pro rata share of the aggregate payments on all Class A
Notes as described above, and shall be applied as between interest and principal
as provided in the Indenture. [In addition, any payments received by the
Indenture Trustee in respect of the Seller Guarantee shall be paid to the
Holders of this Note pursuant to Section 3.32 of the Indenture.]

         All principal and interest accrued on the Notes, if not previously
paid, will become finally due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date.

         The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, by the
Majority Certificateholder on any Payment Date on or after the earlier of (i)
the Payment Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Loans as of the end of the prior Due Period is less than or equal to __% of the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of Cut- off Date and
(ii) the Payment Date in ______ 20__.

         The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which
constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the
Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class A Notes, and each
Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note will be
limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate as
provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller, the Depositor, the
Master Servicer or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any
of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the
Class A Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights conveyed to the Issuer
under the Indenture.

         Any payment of principal or interest payable on this Note which is
punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date
for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person's address as it appears in
the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of
principal and interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable
as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with
appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Indenture
Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of
principal or interest, other than the final installment of principal or
interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States
designated by such Holder. All scheduled reductions in the principal amount of a
Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of principal made
on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any
Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or
in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final
payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on
or after the Payment Date thereof at the Corporate Trust


                                      A-1-3

<PAGE>



Office or the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose
pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Indenture.

         Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the
Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
other Note shall carry the right to unpaid principal and interest that were
carried by such other Note.

         If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be
continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If any
such acceleration of maturity occurs prior to the payment of the entire unpaid
Note Principal Balance of the Notes, the amount payable to the Holder of this
Note will be equal to the sum of the unpaid Note Principal Balance of the Notes,
together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as described in the Indenture.
The Indenture provides that, notwithstanding the acceleration of the maturity of
the Notes, under certain circumstances specified therein, all amounts collected
as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the Notes or otherwise shall continue
to be applied to payments of principal of and interest on the Notes as if they
had not been declared due and payable.

         The failure to pay any Unpaid Interest Shortfall at any time when funds
are not available to make such payment as provided in the Indenture shall not
constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

         The Holder of this Note or Beneficial Owner of any interest herein is
deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with Plan
Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of a Note will not give
rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code as a result of the Issuer, the Seller, the Depositor, the
Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer, any
Subservicer, any other servicer, any administrator, any provider of credit
support, any owner of the Certificates, or any of their Affiliates being a
"Party in Interest" (within the meaning of ERISA) or Disqualified Person (within
the meaning of the Code) with respect to such Holder or Beneficial Owner that is
a Plan and (B) the Notes are rated investment grade or better and such person
believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without substantial
equity features for purposes of the DOL Regulations, and agrees to so treat the
Notes. Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such person may
provide the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee with an opinion of counsel,
which opinion of counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer, the Seller,
the Depositor, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Master Servicer or any successor servicer which opines that the acquisition,
holding and transfer of such Note or interest therein is permissible under
applicable law, will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited
transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the
Issuer, the Seller, the Depositor, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer or any successor servicer to any
obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture.

         Pursuant to the Indenture, unless a Note Insurer Default (as defined in
the Indenture) exists


                                      A-1-4

(i) the Note Insurer shall be deemed to be the holder of the Class A Notes for
certain purposes specified in the Indenture (other than with respect to payment
on the Class A Notes), and will be entitled to exercise all rights of the
Noteholders thereunder, including the rights of Noteholders relating to the
occurrence of, and the remedies with respect to, an Event of Default, without
the consent of such Noteholders, and (ii) the Trustee may take actions which
would otherwise be at its option or within its discretion, including actions
relating to the occurrence of, and the remedies with respect to, an Event of
Default, only at the direction, or with the consent, of the Note Insurer.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of
the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a
written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated
by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of
assignment in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, one or more new Notes
of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate initial Note Principal
Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner
of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of making
payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all other
purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be overdue,
and neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the Issuer
or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Issuer with the consent of the Note Insurer and the Holders of a
majority of all Notes at the time outstanding. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting (i) the Note Insurer or (ii) if the Note Insurer defaults,
the Holders of Notes representing specified percentages of the aggregate Note
Principal Balance of the Notes on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to
waive any past Default under the Indenture and its consequences. Any such waiver
by the Holder, at the time of the giving thereof, of this Note (or any one or
more predecessor Notes) shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon such Note. The Indenture
also permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain
terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of the
Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

         Initially, the Notes will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as
nominee of DTC, acting in its capacity as the Depository for the Notes. The
Notes will be delivered by the clearing agency in denominations as provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth. The Notes
are exchangeable for a like aggregate initial Note Principal Balance of Notes of
different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering
same.

         People's Choice Home Loan Securities Corp. Trust Series 200_-_ (the
"Issuer"), a Delaware statutory trust, for value received, hereby promises to
pay to Cede & Co. or registered assigns, the principal sum of
______________________________ ($___________) in monthly installments on the
twenty-fifth day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day (each a "Payment Date"), commencing in _______ 200_ and
ending on or before the Payment Date occurring in _______ 20__ (the "Final
Scheduled Payment Date") and to pay interest on the Note Principal Balance of
this Note (this "Note") outstanding from time to time as provided below.

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer's
Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 200_-_ (the "Notes"), issued under an Indenture
dated as of _______ __, 200_ (the "Indenture"), between the Issuer and [NAME OF
INDENTURE TRUSTEE], as indenture trustee (the "Indenture Trustee", which term
includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which
Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a
statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to
be authenticated and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in
the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

         Payments of principal and interest on this Note will be made on each
Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The
"Note Principal Balance" of a Note as of any date of determination is equal to
the initial Note Principal Balance thereof, reduced by the aggregate of all
amounts previously paid with respect to such Note on account of principal and
the aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses allocated to such Note on all
prior Payment Dates.

         The principal of, and interest on, this Note are due and payable as
described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall
be equal to this Notes's pro rata share of the aggregate payments on all Class
M-[_] Notes as described above, and shall be applied as between interest and
principal as provided in the Indenture.


                                      A-2-2

<PAGE>



         All principal and interest accrued on the Notes, if not previously
paid, will become finally due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date.

         The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, by the
Majority Certificateholder on any Payment Date on or after the earlier of (i)
the Payment Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Loans is less than or equal to 25% of aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans as of Cut-off Date and (ii) the Payment Date in ______ 20__.

         The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which
constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the
Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class M-[_] Notes, and
each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note
will be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate
as provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller, the Depositor, the
Master Servicer or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any
of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the
Class M-[_] Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights conveyed to the
Issuer under the Indenture.

         Any payment of principal or interest payable on this Note which is
punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date
for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person's address as it appears in
the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of
principal and interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable
as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with
appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Indenture
Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of
principal or interest, other than the final installment of principal or
interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States
designated by such Holder. All reductions in the principal amount of a Note (or
one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of principal made on any
Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any Note
issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in
lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final
payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on
or after the Payment Date thereof at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or
agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose pursuant to Section 3.02
of the Indenture.

         Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the
Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
other Note shall carry the right to unpaid principal and interest that were
carried by such other Note.

         If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be
continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If any
such acceleration of maturity occurs prior to the payment of the


                                      A-2-3

<PAGE>



entire unpaid Note Principal Balance of the Notes, the amount payable to the
Holder of this Note will be equal to the sum of the unpaid Note Principal
Balance of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as
described in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that, notwithstanding the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, under certain circumstances specified
therein, all amounts collected as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the
Notes or otherwise shall continue to be applied to payments of principal of and
interest on the Notes as if they had not been declared due and payable.

         The failure to pay any Unpaid Interest Shortfall at any time when funds
are not available to make such payment as provided in the Indenture shall not
constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

         The Holder of this Note or Beneficial Owner of any interest herein is
deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with Plan
Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of a Note will not give
rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code as a result of the Issuer, the Seller, the Depositor, the
Underwriters, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer, any
Subservicer, any other servicer, any administrator, any provider of credit
support, any owner of the Certificates, or any of their Affiliates being a
"Party in Interest" (within the meaning of ERISA) or Disqualified Person (within
the meaning of the Code) with respect to such Holder or Beneficial Owner that is
a Plan and (B) the Notes are rated investment grade or better and such person
believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without substantial
equity features for purposes of the DOL Regulations, and agrees to so treat the
Notes. Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such person may
provide the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee with an opinion of counsel,
which opinion of counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer, the Seller,
the Depositor any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Master Servicer or any successor servicer which opines that the acquisition,
holding and transfer of such Note or interest therein is permissible under
applicable law, will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited
transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the
Issuer, the Seller, the Depositor, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer or any successor servicer to any
obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of
the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a
written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated
by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of
assignment in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, one or more new Notes
of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate initial Note Principal
Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner
of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of


                                      A-2-4

making payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all
other purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be
overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Issuer with the consent of the Note Insurer and the Holders of a
majority of all Notes at the time outstanding. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of Notes representing specified percentages of
the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes on behalf of the Holders of
all the Notes, to waive any past Default under the Indenture and its
consequences. Any such waiver by the Holder, at the time of the giving thereof,
of this Note (or any one or more predecessor Notes) shall bind the Holder of
every Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof
or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made
upon such Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture
without the consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

         Initially, the Notes will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as
nominee of DTC, acting in its capacity as the Depository for the Notes. The
Notes will be delivered by the clearing agency in denominations as provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth. The Notes
are exchangeable for a like aggregate initial Note Principal Balance of Notes of
different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering
same.

         Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by
the Indenture Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to
any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

         AS PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE, THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE CREATING THIS
NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN.
